cate that Greenbelt just did muster
sufficient number of registra-
tions to insure the town a perma-

sol registrations recorded with

When asked if there was pos
sibility of the polling place being
withdrawn, Judge Thomas r.
Freeman, in charge of the regis
tration, said that he did not think
so. Indications are, he stated, that
the number of registrations would
increase next year.

New Homes Cause
Newspaper Row

Assistant Town Manager Arthur
l.. Rysticken, has been widely
quoted and misquoted in the Wash
lngton and Baltimore papers and
on the radio this week on the SUBJ
ject of the 350-40O homes in Green
belt which are now vacant.
On discovering that there are
some uniccupied homes in the
town some papers were quick to
ask why the many people who are
desperately hunting housing faci-
lities in the Washington area have
not been permitted to apply for
these homes.
Inquiries began to flood the
administrative offices from per-
sons who have been on the waiting
list for the homes.
Mr.. Rysticken has explained
that the reason these homes have
not yet been filled is that it takes
q certain amount of time for the
defense office to contact persons
who applied for the houses, to have
them come out to see and select
their residence, and to get them
moved in. Also, all these houses
were not turned over to the local
administration at one time, and
the latter group has just recently
been received officially.
Residences along the Ridge
Road extension and Plateau
Place are being filed now, and
it is expected that all homes will
be assigned in from two to four
weeks. Units on Hillside Road
extension will be occupied next.

Change Of Hours
And Equipment
Speed Service

improvements in the Food
Store service and facilities within
the next two weeks should enable
it to accommodate the increasing
number of customers more easily,
Thomas Kicker, general manager
of Greenbelt Consumer Services,
stated Wednesday night.
New hours in effect tonight will
keep the Food Store open until
9 o'clock each Friday night. This
is designed to relieve some of the
usual Saturday shopping load.
On Saturdays and on Government
pay day nights the 9Th, 18th,
23rd, and 31st-the closing hour
viii be Tsp. m. On other nights
the Food StoreF closes at $3.50.
The opening. time is $3.50 p. m.
Express Counter Will Help
q Al pew checking counter and
cash Register to be installed in
the Food Store will be for express
or "quickie" service. Persons
wishing to cash checks or to check
out four or less items will be
asked to use this separate check
ing stand and avoid a wait in line
behind shoppers with large
baskets of groceries.
Manager Thomas Jeffries says
that the new display islands for
groceries will be installed shortly.
The installations will be made at
night so that store service will not
be exposed to Inconvenience.
Meat Policy Works
A policy of voluntary rationing
in the meat department, whereby
each purchaser of a large order
of beef is asked to make a smaller
purchase, seems to be meeting
with general approval, Mr.. Kicker
reports. Instead of allowing all
the beef supply to go to early
shoppers, smaller amounts can
now go to more customers, he
explained.

this affair as all funds received
