TAk0MA PARK SIDING
VANISHES AFTER ROW
Railroad to Transfer Freight
Handling Which Caused Arrest
and Election Fight.

The unloading platform at the North
Takoma siding, which figured largely
in the everyday life of Takoma Park.
Md, and was the cause of hot town
election last May, has ceased to be a
cause of strife. This week q Baltimore
& Ohio railroad crew. under the super
vision of Freight Agent Reutenberg,
demolished the platform and today pre-
pared to send 1t elsewhere for unload
ing purposes.
The town constable placed Mr. Reu-
tenberg under arrest when the Balti-
more g. Ohio Railroad attempted to
unload coal at this platform and siding
last May few days after Mayor Ben
Davis had announced the land at the
siding was the property OF the town
and the siding could no longer be used
as q place for unloading freight.
Mr.. Reutenberg, after being arrested.
appealed to the attorneys for the B. &
o. Railroad. who obtained an injunction
against the town, This was met by
cross bill and answer filed by the town
and since that date the North Takoma
siding issue has been before the courts.
After the answer was filed by the town
authorities the railroad filed demurrer,
the hearing being set for next August
20. at Rockville. Removal of the plat
form. authorities declare, supports their
contention

shouted to the governor.

Cant do it, boys, unless you either
saw something off from me or this
board" shouted back the candidate. as
he tried to get closer to the microphone.
Every one roared, including the gov
ernor He's no longer as slender as ne
used to be.
A moment later the governor was
going through the regular stunts which
the movies demand Of public speaker;
going through them without any prompt
ing, shouting his own directions and
CONFUSING the cameramen. He has
done 1t so often he says he could do 1t
In his sleep.
The governor is fit and ready for the
campaign of his life. While he will go
to New York after the notification and
hold conferences with Chairman Raskob
end others handling the campaign TO
determine just where he should go and
how hard he should go on the road, 1t
is expected here that he will conduct
an intensive campaign, travelling into
many States. More and more 1t is being
impressed upon the governor himself
and upon his aides that he has much
TO gain by getting out on the stump
and meeting as many people as he can
in the two months and half that re-
main before election day. What he and
his managers are anxious TO BRING
about is that the people of the country
generally shall know him as do the peo-
pie of his own State.
The governor is no early riser He
works hard, but burns the candle, not
the early morning sun. II he goes TO
the White House. the Secret Service
