Ventilate Attic
To Help Keep
Roofing Tight

If the attic of building IS not
thoroughly ventilated, moisture
can condense on the underslde
of the roof with the result that
the roofing material on the out
side will be damaged.
: The condensed moisture vets
the roof deck boards, which then
are susceptible to warp1ng.
Warped boards can disturb the
lay of the roofing material. Shin
giles tend to raise up, and roll
roofing can wrinkle and buckle.
Proper construction and venti-
lation of roof deck, basic step
in correct roof application, is nee
essary if any roofing material is
to give fully satisfactory service.
]. L. Strahan, technical director
of the Asphalt Roofing Industry
Bureau, says that asphalt roofing,
like other roofing materials, will
not live out its full span of use
fulness unless it is correctly and
carefully applied"
One of the most frequently
used ways of ventilating an attic
space is to construct lowered
openings high up under the caves
in the gable ends of the building.
For each square foot of attic floor
space, there should be half a
square inch of effective lowered
opening.
When the interior of a house is
being plastered or when plaster
is drying, ventilation of the low
er stories is required to remove
the moisture-laden air before il
can rise to the attic. This venti-
lation usually can be provided by
opening first floor or basement
windows on one side of the house
and second floor windows on the
other side.

But while it is the biggest it has
nc paid lobbyists.
The only weapon the public has
is the ballot. Wisely used, it is a
powerful and compelling weapon.
I'll used, it is a dangerous weapon.
Not used it is an even more dan
gerous weapon. For even when it
is used i'll advisedly, che politician
knows thaat it is just a temporary
DETECTION which may not ensure
reelection. But when it is not
used the politician knows then that
his constituents just don't care
what he does, one way or the
other. So he bargains with lobby
lists in clork-room deals. And the
people suffer thereby.
A special appeal should not
have to be- made on the basis of
race, but the truth exists hat the
Negro people always get the
short end of the stick. Therefore
it is especially incumbent upon Ne
groes that they mass at the polls
and cast their votes for men who
have them in mind in the distri-
button of the good things of the
land.
eLt's witness a big turnout at
the polls next Tuesday. And after
that, those who did not register
for the primary should do so for
the fall election.

Every Election
important

A week from today is primary
day in Ohio. Registered voters in
Dayton will nominate at the polls
their preferred candidates for var
ious offices in the party of their
preference. Republicans will vote
for Republican candidates only,
and Democrats for Democratic
candidates only.
Primary elections are generally
small. Interest does not soar to
my heights in these elections, al
tho they are as important as gen
eral elections. The American
people have not yet risen to the
consciousness of the Importance

The reasons why it is import
ant that every registered person
hould go to the polls are obvious

Yery nature of politics makes it
Advantageous to the average poll

Killer Charged With
First Degree
MonsIoughter

Once again, murder became
just a matter of Court record as
Ernest Stephens, 40, of 924 Gus
ter Place DeSota Courts alleged
slayer Of Mrs. Sylvia Dunlap, OF
Sc Bragg Place, on Christmas Eve
was allowed toanswer to a charge
of ''First Degree Manslaughter"
before Common Pleas Judge Don
r. Thomas Monday morning.
Stephens was held without bond
pending a preliminary hearing
scheduled for Thursday morning,
April II, at $50 in the court
room Of Judge Thomas.
Once again, this reporter calls
the attention to the citizens and
tax payers, that the killings Of
west side residents is just a mat
ter of court routine, so far as the
grand juries, and courts are con-
cerned.
Despite all the evidence given
by the police, that the act o. the
alleged killer twas the result of
"Just Another Murder" on the
west side and so with a matter
of factly'' method Of d~isposing
with the case" the court no doubt
will assume the same attitude as
in other killings" and allow
Stephens to plead to the mal-
slaughter charge with the defence
of being drunk" and was not in
his right mind.
Stephens has already come up
with the plea that the admitted
shooting was an accident, saying
the fatal shot was caused by him
tripping on a wire" in front OF
the window where he fired two
bullets into the living room of the
Dunlaps and killed her while she
was entertaining some friends in
a pre- christmas party where a
card game was in progress.
My dear readers, can you ex-
cept such an excuse, and further,
can you except the findings If
the grand jury based On such a
week plea. To those of you who
will follow this and other murder
cases as they come up, can you
keep on supporting the Judges
who seek your support and yet
they hold your lives $50 cheap"

Old Plates Of
1865 On Exhibit
AT Y Camera Shop

An extremely interesting photo
graphic exhibit, not only to pho
/ tographers but to everyone, is now
on display at Y Camera Shop,
1885 Euclid near Ivanhoe.
Pictures in this exhibit were
made from original plates made
by one of the country's most fa-
nous photographers. That was
Mathew Brady. He operated
Brady's National Photograph Gal
lery in Washington, D. c., around
1865, back in the days when ex-
posures that now are measured in
fractions of seconds took minutes,
sometimes as long as five minutc6
being required for an exposure and
subjects had to sit perfectly still
with the help of head rests, shoul-
der rests and other devices while
their image was recorded on wet
plates.
Most notable of Brady's pictures,
and of great historical value, are
those he took of Civil War figures
and events and of outstanding citi-
zens of that day. Brady followed
the army with his equipment and
dark room mounted on a horse
drawn wagon.
Among pictures in the Y Camera
Shop display are those of a Mrs.
Shaffer; Henry Wilson, vice presi-
dent under Grant; Ebenezer Rock
wood Hoar, attorney general under
Grant; Gen. Phillip H. Sheridan;
Gen. George Anthony Custer; two
pictures of Ulysses S. Grant, one
when he was a general of the army
and the other when he was presi-
dent of. the United States; a shot
of Hamilton Fish when he was
secretary Of state under Grant;
one of a Mrs. Bodisco and one of
Gen. Winfield Scott Hancock.
You are invited to stop in at Y
Camera Shop and see this interest
ing exhibit. Even if you're not in
terested in photography, these pic
lures are of great historical sig.
nificance. Next week they will be
displayed at Y Cameras branch at
Euclid and Superior.
