HINT FOR THE HOME
LATEST SHINGLES ARE
TAPERED ASBESTOS

For many years comparatively
few persons recognized the inter-
esting qualities to be found in
Tudor architecture, but recently
there has grown in this country
widespread appreciation of the
graciousness and charm of this old
English style.
When the art and design of one
country are transplanted to an
other certain notifications and
changes are likely to take place.
The English roof was made of
natural stone, and the first thought
of the American architecture was
to use only that material. But
American inventiveness is not
satisfied to follow along the old
lines, when some new product can
be developed that will add super
ior qualities, Consequently there
has been produced new ana
fascinating roofing, tapered as
bestos shingles, made in random
widths and graduated thicknesses,
in a wide range of rich but sub
dued colors.
The shingles are composed sole
ly of portland cement, pure as
bestos fibre and mineral oxides
for coloring. They combine the
beauty of natural product with
features achieved only by COM
position material. Instead of pos
sible deterioration, age improves
them. They possess remarkable
insulation value and may be in
various types to suit the type OF

improvements in the landing field
fat the Airport, Bader Field, West

arrival of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh
Wednesday, Oct. 10.
Assurances that everything will
be in readiness are given by Com
missioner Kuehnle, A. 7. Bell and
Ralph Harcourt.
The importance of improving the
field was stressed before meeting
Of the Atlantic City Chamber of
Commerce by William p McCrac-
ken, Jr., assistant secretary of the
department of commerce.
In outlining the progress Of avi-
alton Mr.. McCracken said that the
people of the United States were
looking upon aviation more and
more both for pleasure and bust
ness.
THE time has come when the
American public is looking toward
the air for it's holiday diversion
he said. "And if Atlantic City
wants to retain it's reputation of
being the Playground OF the World
it must have an aviation field sec
ond to none. People will come here
to enjoy themselves. And these
same people are rapidly taking to
the air for pleasure. They come
here 10 see your great resort. They
come here to plunge into your surf.
But they will also come here to see
how your resort looks from the air.
And if you have not a suitable field
for flying these very people who
now are enjoying the comforts of
your resort are going TO go else
where when it comes to pleasures
of the air.
The speaker said that not only
was aviation giving the public con-
siderable pleasure in life, but that
it also was big benefit in CONNER
cial and financial life of the nation.
Where formerly it took a week to
reach a given point the distance
now could be covered by a plane in
a third of that time. Goods could
be shipped by plane and reach the
buyer within very short time.
Banking business could be done by
air in days time where formerly
it took three days.
Atlantic City cannot spend too
much money on developing its air.
port" he said. "The money will be
returned in big dividends and in
times of national crises the airport
would be a potent factor in the ma
tional defense of the country"

Profitable But Considered
Detrimental Business

Vigorous protest against permit

boulevard has been filed with the
Atlantic City commission. Mayor
Ruff and Joseph B. Perskie, city
solicitor, have the complaint under
consideration.
Thad S. Maher, property owner
on Chelsea Heights, who made the
objection, stated in his letter to the
board that "Pleasantville resident

at the corner of Albany and Porter

intends to open a touring tent

earnest efforts to get rid of them.
Reference was made to Margate
and Longport, where for several
seasons motor tourists have tented
on the beachfront properties and
nearby. Some property owners have
reaped a harvest from rentals of
space, while others have expended
much energy in denouncing the
practice as detrimental to public
welfare and creative of unsanitary
