]. M. LANK WITHDRAWS
FROM DEMOCRATIC liChGl
Milton Banker Says He Could Not
Give Time To Office

Withdrawal of Joseph M. Lank,
from the Democratic ticket as nomi-
nee for State Auditor of Accounts,
has been announced, following re-
ceipt of a letter from Mr.. Lank by
Harry T. Graham, chairman of the
Democratic State Committee, in
which Mr.. Lank sets out that if
elected he would be unable to give
the time to the Office that he feels
the State is entitled to, and that he
also could not give the time to his
present position, cashier of the Sus-
sex Trust Company's bank at Mil
ton that it is entitled to. After con-
sulting officers of the trust company,
Mr.. Lank says he decided to with
draw.
The Democratic State Committee
will meet next week in Dover at the
call of Mr.. Graham, at which time
under the authority given the com
mittee by the State convention to
fill any vacancies that may occur on
the ticket, the vacancy caused by Mr.
Lank's withdrawal will be filed.
he WlLuuIdWdl VI WI. Aelhh lAOA4
the ticket, has started speculation as
to whom the State committee will
select to fill the vacancy. In Kent
county, it is reported, political lead
ers wiz urge the selection of Will
liam G.. Roe, former State auditor,
the contention among Kent county
Democrats being that Kent has al
ways given substantial Democratic
majorities. 1t is said members of
the Democratic State Committee
from Kent county will insist upon
the name of Mr.. Roe being placed on
the ticket, his past experience as
State auditor making him partic-
ularly desirable nominee, who should
greatly strengthen the Democratic
State ticket.

MUCH GASOLINE
 WILL BE NEEDED
Total Demand on U. s. Figured
 at 12 Billion Gallons

Tho domestic demand for gaso. line for 1926 is estimated as approxi. matcly lo,6iI4i6,o0o gallons.
 Roger E, Stafford Of the National Petroleum News has estimated the consumption of gasoline in this coun. try at the first Of the past three years with almost perfect accuracy His 1925 estimate was only three tonths of per cent too low.
 In addition 10 our consumption of ln,547,d16,0oo gallons, Stafford esti. mates that export demands will re- qulre 1,5oo, o,0o0,o0o more, raking q total demand on American reflneries of about 1e,ooo0o0.000 gallons.
 Demands Increase.
 The constant increase in the mum. Der of automobiles 7nufactured makes greater demands on Ameri- cans gasoline supply.
 The improvement Of automobiles, making them more comfortable and pleasurablo also increases the use of gasoline as the automobile, no longer roamins idle during indictment wealth. or but is used the year round.
 Weather conditions, prosperity and other factors may alter the estl- mate to some degree, but taking tho country as whole. 1t is believed that a decline of the use of gasoline in some districts will be comren- sntod for in others.
 Crude oil.
 Improved refining methods. in- creased cracking facilities and de- sire among rcfiners not to increase stocks of gasoline makes it difficult to estimate the amount of crude oil that will be consumed during 1926.
 However, Stafford estimates that if the amount of crude oil charged to stills in 1926 is in the same pro- portion to 1925 charges, approxi- mately S37.000,000 barrels of crude oil will be needed.

HUDSON AND ESSEX
 ATTRACT BUYERS
Company Produced 27O,O00 Cars
 in Past Production Year

Never has the outlook been bet ter for the automobile buyer and seller than 1t is for 1926. Automo- piles represent greater value than eyer before. The cars are more at- tractivo and comfortable and closed types with their added comfort and utility are more popular than ever. Prosperity is universal.
 The remarkable exhibit at this years automobile show, once more shows Hudson Essex in position or creative leadership. As last year the one outstanding fact was the general swing toward the closed car at an open car price, which Hudson Essex had pioneered, so this year the critics seem agreed that tho greatest popular interest is fin tho six cylin- der enclosed cars selling in the lcss-than-Sl,000 field.
 They assert this is so because cars of this description have shown a most remarkable growth this last year and because more new cars of this sort are being introduced to the public than any other general classi- fication, Modern traffic conditions favor them and the public is turning to them.
 This being true, the spotlight will show brightly on the Essex Coach, for this is the undcnied pioneer in this broad and growing field, Two years ago 1t was first offered at the New York show--at q time, in fact. when six cylinder enclosed car at the price had never before hoen thought of. Since that pioneer step Essex has had nearly two years of remarkable business as a result of it's leadership: and as its business has increased 1t has passed along its volume savings in series of price reductions.

SNOW FENCES
GOING UP ALONG
TRUNK HIGHWAYS
STATE DEPARTMENT PLANS TO
KEEP ROADS OPEN ALL WIN
TER-PLOWS AND GRADERS
TO HELP.

Erection of snow fences at many
places along the trunk highways in
Redwood County will be started early
in November, according to announce
ment by the State Highway depart
ment. An effort will be made to keep
the entire trunk highway system open
all winter, Commissioner C. M. Bah
cock states.
Last winter was the first time all
the trunk highways were kept open.
Light snow fall in most sections of
the state made the work easier. This
year the department has increased its
equipment, and expects to keep the
roads open even if the snow fall is
much heavier than last winter.
The snow fencing has been increas-
ed from 100000 to 100000 feet, or
286 miles. The fence is of wooden
picket type. Posts are erected as
soon as it will not interfere with farm
work and the fence is rolled out and
put up after the ground freezes. The
fence is placed where conditions in
dictate that drifts are likely to collect.
While there is not enough fence to
protect all places where snow might
drift, it is expected to be sufficient
SO that traffic can keep moving under
ordinary circumstances.
"Snow removal leaves the roads in
much better shape for spring travel.
Roads that have been kept open dur
ing the winter are usually dry and in
good condition late in the spring. The
spring maintenance cost is much less
on roads that have been kept free
from snow" said Mr.. Babcock
