SIX MORE ONE-WAY
STREETS PLANNED

Continued from Page One)
a. n. to 6 p. m, instead of the
present seasonal application of
that regulation.
Bahama street would have two
way traffic from Eaton to FIem-
ing, no left turn. and no right turn
at the intersection of Fleming and
Bahama Parking would be pro-
hibited on the entire street.
Add Safety Lights
The mayor also suggested:
Parking on all streets must be
parallel with the curb, not more
than Is inches out. From inter
section of streets, legal distance
would be shortened from Is to Is
feet except where fire plugs are
installed, in which case IS feet
would remain the legal limit.
Should the fire plug be in the CEN
ter of the block, a distance of 10
feet on each side would be re-
CURED.
Traffic aids suggested by the
mayor include installation of a
caution blinker at Bertha and
Flagler; stop and go lights at Di-
vision and Simonton, Southland
and Simonton and Southland and
Whitehead, and at least 20 STOP
signs to be distributed on through
streets, with paint markings on
streets wherever necessary.

Navy to Wait


Lieut. Comdr. Henry L. Naff,
told of the possible delay, said the
navy still is sticking to its determi-
nation to do nothing until the
money from the commission ac-
tually is ready for expenditure.
The navy's 100000 share in
the project has been available for
months, but aside from issuing a
letter of intention to Williams
Brothers, Tulsa, Okla, firm which
will carry out the job, the navy
department has made no step to-
ward obligating itself
Doughty. commenting on Saw
yer's inability to leave Key West
at the end of the month, said it is
possible the bonds could be
brought to Miami and placed in a
trustee bank for signing by the
clerk and the commission MEM
bers. He said he does not believe
that plan win be used, however.
Elson KiIlam, aqueduct en-
gineer, is expectedsto come here
from New York this week to COM
plete plans for the pumping sta
ton and reservoir at the rear of
the courthouse. Doughty, who
said he expected Killam at any
time, explained that the commits
sion has not decided if it win be
necessary to install all new equip
ment, or if it will be possible to
renovate and use some of the ex-
isting, out-of-use machinery al
ready in place.

 GUEST OF LIONS
Borough lndusrialist Ends Mystery Over Tires on
 FactOry's Grounds

Speaking on "Reclaiming of Rub Der from old Tires" before the Lions Club yesterday, John H. Cas- key general manager of the. Nau- gatllck Chemical Company said that the burning of rubber is really a disguised sweet fragrance emit- ted during the manufacture of in- dustrial perfume.
 MT. Caskey, who was introduced to his audience by E. Norton Deck CT, gave an interesting talk on the processes of retaining rubber from old tires. People who pass the plant and see the huge piles of tires in the yards of the plant often won- der how these tires are reclaimed. They are cut up into sections, parts of which are used for fuel, others to be, chemically processed and reused. This rubber is sheeted and shipped to other concerns, which in turn process it to fit their needs.
 In conclusion he stated Auto tires are what men like them to be in mottos-they go on forever, even if the reclaimed rubber is used in other tires or other rubber products

 New York, Jan. 31-(UP)-Stocks staged minor technical rally in early dealings today but lost part of the recovery around noon. Trad ing continued quiet.
 Bethlehem Steel, reflecting the excellent report issued after the market close yesterday, ran up 1 3-8 points to 82% and held % point of the gain. U. S. Steel, however, lost all of an early E point rise. Chrysler and General Motors also slipped off from their tops.
 General steel castings preferred recouped almost half of yesterdays loss of more than points. Ameri- can air lines, armour of Illinois preferred, Commonwealth & South ern preferred and Universal pie lures first preferred rose l to 2 points. American Locomotive pre- ferred, Norfolk 6 Western, U.. s. Smelling and William Wrigley had losses of 1 to 2 points.
 Mixed trends prevailed in most major groups at noon, with price changes in the main list limited to minor fractions.
 Savage arms, which lost nearly 4 points yesterday, firmed 1-8 to 40 5-8. Rails generally were firm, al- though Southern Pacific had a small loss. Douglas Aircraft was down % point to 70. Hercules Pow der lost 8 point.
 Cotton Futures
 New York, Jan. 31-(UP)-Trade and mill demand lifted cotton fu- lures as muc has 40 cents bale in forenoon dealings today.
 Around noon prices were to 6 points higher after opening to 2 points higher.
 Early demand was prompted by steady overseas advices and came chiefly from spot houses with trade and mill interests turning to the buying side after the initial call. Hedges were light, reflecting firm ness in the spot basis in the south.
 Gray goods volume amounted to between 100000 and 3.O0,0O0 yards after the first hour with prices marked up slightly on some con- StructionS.
