Hill Says Kansas City Trip Ends Doubts on Road
Senator Hill told San Angelo Standard reporters after a Kansas City banquet that doubts about the road’s construction are gone. He cited 500 banquet attendees, 175 from outside Kansas City, and San Angelo as the largest Texas delegation. Plans include San Angelo to division point then to Spofford Junction and on to Mexico City, with work to start between San Angelo and Sweetwater once International Construction stock sells, aiming for operation by January 1, 1905 unless war delays stock sale.
