trolling interest in the Nevada Reduc-
ton works at Dayton, is preparing 10

souri, river.

cured by the company are the winters

Williams and Cornelius Combs. negroes,
and both condemned murderers, now
awaiting death in the county jail on

WON PERMIT TO PLACE
SMALL SHOW WINDOW
Decision Ends Dispute in Favor of Pc
utioners After Some Lively
Opposition.

Although stating that the policy OF
the District Commissioners has been in
most cases not 10 allow show windows
ia residential sections Engineer Commis-
sioner Biddle has recommended granting
a permit 10 Pauline and Morris Lewis
for the construction Of one at 2037 II
street northwest.
II was strenuOusly objected 10 by a
number Of prominent residents of that
nelghb0rhood, notably Eugene W. John
son. The objection assumed the pro-
portions of a neiglS)orhood row and on
July 20 was threshed over at a hearias
before the District Commissioners. In
granting the permit Commissioner Bid
ole said that there would seem 10 be
little difference between the small show
windows and q bay window which would
be allowed under any circumstances,
and hich would project further into the
street than a show window.
