Permit Refusal Stops C C M Railroad Plan
The Interstate Commerce Commission on the 13th refused a permit to build a 660 mile railroad by the Colorado Columbus & Mexican to run from Columbus to Farmington New Mexico with branches to Springerville Arizona and other points. The Santa Fe opposed the project claiming public need was insufficient, while the commission cited excessive cost and scant local investigation. The ruling blocks the proposed line and any Mexican extensions, affecting development prospects for a largely undeveloped timber, mineral, and farming corridor.
