Texas Employment Bureau reports Cameron area unemployment at 2.4 percent while national rates hover above 6 percent. The piece credits local expansion and industry activity for sustaining the community despite broader economic slowdowns.
The three story Crockett Avenue hospital was crushed into a two story pile by a salvage company. Bricks and salvageable material were removed before a large iron ball finished the demolition. The site now signals change and possible new development after sixty years.
The Department of State responds to questions about Turkey’s sovereignty and law enforcement in the murder case of the Israeli ambassador to Turkey. It notes martial law, Turkish efforts to protect foreign personnel, and no U.S. or U.N. intervention. It also explains limits on aiding Lithuanian travel, and details the June 17 treaty between the United States and Japan on Okinawa to be ratified in 1972 with asset transfers and payments totaling $320 million plus expected savings.
Christo, the Bulgarian-born artist based in New York, aims to hang a four-ton orange nylon curtain across Rifle Gap, Colorado seven miles north of Rifle. The project faces weather and timing limits, with a $200000 cost and $50000 bond, and involves 20 European collectors funding part of the venture. The curtain would span 1500 feet with openings for traffic on Colorado 325 and be removed after the display, with delays pushing a September 20 take-down window and a October 15 finish risk from winter storms.
The plan places the central business district in the city’s southern core near the Santa Fe railroad, with residential areas to the west north and northeast. Growth remains northerly and westerly due to a flood plain barrier, with industrial growth along the Southern Pacific rail line and US 190 US 77. An upgrade of the CBD is urged to boost trade and revenue, while future residential land should prioritize vacant sites. The northeast quadrant is deemed costly to serve with utilities and should wait for better areas. The plan calls for a ten year annexation to include Ledbetter Park SH 36 corridors west of the airport and north to the industrial fringe. Next: parks and schools.
