By Tho Associated Press,
 Washington, Nov. 3.--The cam paign of 1924 is passing through its final hours in a swirl of activity des- tined to make political history
 For the first time two presidential candidates, president Coolidge and John w. Davis, are preparing to ad- dress an election eve message to the same audience--a radio audience that will extend the country over.

 Senator La Toilette, having laid his case finally before the people in a Saturday night address at Cleve- land. has returned to his home in Madison, and Charles G. Dawes is awaiting in Evanston the verdict of tomorrow's baloting.

Camp ner Of New Haven and Morris Pouzz- ner of New London have taken long term lease with the privilege of pur- chase on Momauguin from the Con necticut company.

Across the street a park, after the fashion of the White City at Savin Rock, will be erected. A large arch will be directly opposite Swifts and there will be a roller coaster. whip, carousel, swings and other concessions there.
 It is possible that all Of these will not be completed for use this season, but work will be begun immediately and 1t is hoped that the park will be ready for the holiday crowd on May 30. The picnic grounds will re- main where they are and a parking space has been arranged at the left. This has been leased to James Setara 4e Fair street, of New Haven.
 The concessions which are across from the bath houses will be moved across the street and new bath houses will be built there. l. T.

An open air dance hall will be erected. The pier which was destroyed this winter will be replaced by new and modern pier which will extend Eev- eral hundred feet into the water.' It is hoped that 1t can be arranged 10 have one fare he sufficient for the ride to Momauguin. but nothing has been done as yet in this regard.
