which time he will outline the issues.
On the following night he will make
an address in Kismet Temple, Brook
lyn. On Thursday he will speak in
Queens and on Friday he will leave
in a special car on his upstate tour,
speaking at night in Poughkeepsie. It
is expected that in his speeches in this
city the Governor will discuss transit
ways and means at length, and that
the development Of the Port OF New
York under the direction of the Port
Authority also will be dealt with.
Power development and fuel and hous-
ing matters also will be taken up.
