Orient Keeps Southwest Growth Policy Amid Rates Debate
The Orient plans to continue promoting migration and investment in Texas despite pressure from traffic associations and rivals to halt homeseekers' rates in 1914. Kansas City Southern objects to the ruling, but the Orient, Cotton Belt, Frisco, Missouri Pacific and others may still issue homeseekers' rates on January 6 and 20, with further decisions to follow. Also cited are train schedules and a resolution of respect from College Station cadets for Wallace B. Hector of Alpine, Texas, who died on Christmas Eve 1913.
