Frank and detailed discussion of the proposed 100-ton-per-day ice-making facility at Empalme. Also discussion of water supply to the area and to the town. The SP makes it sound herein like they are GROWING rather than DECLINING on the line, even at this late date in the early complaining that they can't make ice fast enough to meet their growing needs for refrigerated shipment on the line. Fair amount of discussion of labor and of the "company town" of Empalme. One important question is just how the world war affected SP operations in Mexico

Slim (40-50 pp??) bundle of correspondence, Cover has been torn off or worn off over time. Very first item from Titcomb to Sproule, discussing effects of the 1926 Petroleum Law on his company and on the "East Coast Oil Co.," which Titcomb was also President of.

Discussion of the legality of the Petroleum Law, which will clearly have a negative effect on the cadre of SP people involved in this discussion and collection
