Center street is to be made a one-way thoroughfare with traffic entering from Bank street. Church street will be a one-way thorough. fare, autos turning in from Grand street taking the preference. The same arrangement will be made for Field street, permitting cars to turn off Grand street at this par- tfcular section. During the heavy rush 1t is planned to close Grand street, between Leavenworth and Bank streets. ss-
 Superintendent Mclean was also studying Exchange place with a view of invoking the one-way plan such as prevails at noon hours and during the busy evening rusies on week days. This arrangement would speed up traffic and would serve as a protection for pedes- trians crossing at these four par- ticular corners.
 In addition to the traffic regula- tions the superintendent. has or- dered the entire night platoon to report an hour earlier. The motor patrol 100 per cent strong, will be held in reserve to protect outlying districts in event of policemen DGlIIS ACSAcu bO ltdnAA0 CIOW0S AA the business sections of the city.
 In view of the fact, however, that thousands of radio parties will be held in homes, clubs, fra terna1 meeting halls and other gathering places the police do not expect the. milling thousands of people as in former years. Owing to the fact, however, that hundreds of automobiles drive aimlessly about just to look on and to be in readiness to proceed to any scene of more attractive excitement" the authorities are eager to be on hand and supervise traffic.
 Policemen will be stationed at all principal traffics points and there is little possibility of any serious compositions resulting. ~
 Extra policemen will be kept on duty in the vicinity of Exchange place where thousands are expect ed to join in the usual walking about" procession.

 The governor referred to the day as "a rather important one in my young life," joked and laughed heartily with his friends and ap- peared confident that the result of the balloting would be man. date from the people in his favor. | Roosevelt spent election eve yis- iting the thousands of citizens in the towns and villages of this Hud- son valley country whom he termed "my neighbors".
 \ In his address to several hun dred persons at Rhinebeck he re- minded them that "a vote for me means a vote for your old neigh bor, Monty Snyder

 "Each of these memories and many others have their individual significance to me. If can catch them all together and give them vitality and means and life. shall have fulfilled the purpose of my travels-these people.

Edward Newton, 3S, was just a
step ahead of death during a nine
hour 120 foot climb from the bot
tom of a tank filled with deadly
fumes, he said today.
And all that time the body Of
his fellow worker, Ernest Howard,

Howard fell victim to the fumes and
death that Newton escaped.
Newton was overcome frequently
during the nine hours, he said. He
realized that during most of the
time he was only partly conscience.
The men contracted to paint a
100000 gallon water tank at New
port, near here. They decided to
begin their task at an early hour
yesterday because they knew the
sun would release the asphalt fumes
in the paint
But before they had been work
ing long the deadly fumes began
to rise. Howard started for the
ladder, but toppled over.
Newton, already partly overcome,
saw his comrade fall, started
toward him, realized his mistake
and rushed toward the ladder. He
dashed up a few steps before the
fumes began to choke him.
He clung to the ladder as to his
