Van Wagner Confident

Gov. Murray d. Van Wagner,
fighting to be the first two-con-
southwestern governor since Fred
w. Green was reelected in 1923,
was confident of a majority in
Wayne County sufficiently large
TO wipe out the rural edge con-
coded to Republican nominee
Harry +. Kelly.
Kelly, however, was equally
emphatic in predicting a large
COP majority outstate and a
Democratic edge here smaller than
anticipated by the administration.
Interest centered in the COVER
norship race and the contest
between United States Senator
Prentiss M. Brown and Judge
Homer Ferguson, the Republican
nominee.
Reports from outstate indicated
this fight will not be as close as
the governorship race, for Brown
is recognized in Michigan. as well
as nationally, as one of the most
able members of the Senate.

Economic on Gas
During the Holidays
By ELEANOR ROSS

EVEN THOUGH Christmas is
- over there will be many
more parties, luncheons and sup
pers during the holidays. Which
is just the reason TO pause a
moment and think about that
stove and oven.
We are so accustomed to hav-
ing as much gas as it required
for cooking and heating purposes
that it just never occurs TO us
that there may be a shortage.
However, since the supply of
gas is entirely dependent on the
national supply of coal and oil it
behooves us 10 treat the gas
supply with respect and with
due care.
There are many things we can
do to reduce the gas fuel con-
sumption without interfering
with our accustomed menus.
For one thing~it is a good idea
to only use the oven for a full
meal, rather than Just for some
cookies. some baked apples or a
pudding. Work Out oven meals
and save fuel.
