Laredo Bridge to Open to Traffic Early Next Month
Mexico's new two lane low level bridge between Laredos is expected to carry heavy truck traffic in the first half of January. Access road work on the Mexican side is in its third day. Ignacio Garagarza, engineer in charge, aims for early month completion. The Laredo council approved $300,000 in revenue bonds for its share of the permanent bridge reconstruction, to be sold by competitive bidding with a 2.5 percent maximum rate. A final draft of the city Mexican government agreement was delivered by Luis Guzman Garduna to Mayor Martin this week.

Texas oil output falls from 1953 to 1954
Texas Railroad Commission Chair Ernest Thompson says 1954 oil production will total about 962 million barrels, 38 million fewer than 1953, with prospects for 1955 not bright. He notes demand growth may not offset supply increases, and production just surpassed the one billion barrel mark in 1953.
