City Merchants To
Study Combining
With Chamber

The Port Clinton Merchants
Association will hold its regular
business meeting in city hall,
Monday night, September 8.
President Harry Callahan has
urged the entire membership to
attend the dinner meeting, because
of the fact that the subject of
combining the organization with
the Chamber of Commerce, will
feaure the business session dis
cussion.
The Chamber of Commerce will
likewise discuss the same subject
at its monthly meeting to be held
next week. Boards of directors OF
both organizations had previously
voted in favor of unification of

round or old style twisted cords.

string other extensions from those
three outlets. with triple outlets
on each one. you can very quickly
draw a power load for which your
wiring was not intended.
The hazard that arises in such
an arrangement is that when
fuse melts and some one foolishly
replaces it with a heavier fuse
the heat in the wires is bound tt

DETROIT
NUMBERS GAME
IN SLOW DAYS
DAYS
BY ISAAC JONES

DETROIT - (ANP) - The
ga Question" asked daily by
thousands of persons in Detroit,
is - What Has Happened to the
Numbers Racket"
Since November l, 1851. when
the federal law became effective
requiring gamblers to register,
this reporter has been seeking the
answer from members of the
cleanup squad who have Secial-
lied for years in arresting and in
veStigating the activities OF
gamblers
The study has disclosed that
the numbers racket in Detroit is
in a dying stage, but is not dead.
Members of the cleanup squad
said the mutuel operation has
passed from the hands Of the big
gamblers and syndicates since
last November to the little
gamblers" such as the sub-station
operators, pickup men and the
walking writers.
| Police said that the o v e
groups are backing their own
numbers. In many instances they
are unable to pay hits, but pock-
ct the bets on the grounds, "that
you can't beat the numbers"
The officers said since Novem-
Der !, 1851, many of these small
/ numbers kings have operated or
| a "fly-by-night" system. They
skip about from various addresses
to do business.
| Prior TO the Federal Law Ac'
| against gamblers, persons arrest
ed for mutuel activities and ar
raigned in Recorders Court .av.
eraged from six to II a day, pay.
ing fines from $25 10 500.
Today, there are really a hal
dozen cases week brought int
Recorders court.
1 When the operators are arrest
ed, police rarely finds any money
. The current dated mutuel 80 p
are the biggest proof.

Pvt. Hugh s. Carter sat here in

The 24-year-old Boston (Mass.) }

said he expected the Mps would be

Pvt. Carter took a seat in the

manned there ever since for most
Of his waking hours as a protest
against being sent to the Korean

Nearby Camp Pickett, where he
received his travel orders, has
made no move to interfere with
Pvt. Carter's plans as yet. But
officers said they would ask Fort

Shortage Of Fuel Oil
Seen Possible if Next
Winter Is Undu|y Cold

IF residents of this area who
heat their homes with oil are to-
be warm next winter, there will
have to be refinery operations at
record levels and some good luck
besides. according to Government
officials.
These officials stress that they
are not crying out in alarm. At
the same time, they said it would
be helpful II consumers would I'LL
their home tanks between now
and fall. That will allow dealers
to store more oil in anticipation
Of winter.
According to officials Of the
Petroleum Administration for De-
tense, the householder who heats
with oil may. if the winter is
unusually cold. be among those
suffering from delayed repercus-
sions from the steel strike. They
cited these strike results:
Storage Facilities Held Up.
Construction of storage facili-
ties throughout the Nation for 1875
million barrels Of petroleum has
been delayed at least three months
This means those facilities will
not be available for the heating
season ahead.
Pipe line construction also will
be delayed for three months.
It Is assumed. however, that re-
hnery construction scheduled for
completion before the end of win
ter will not be delayed.
Lawrence w. Lee, director Of
PADS marketing and distribu-
ton division, said in a speech last
week that he did not foresee any
overall shortage unless the win
ter is much colder than normal.
He said it is possible, however,
that there may be "area short
ages" on the East Coast and in the
Pacific Northwest.
Charles j. Hedlund, director of
p. A. DIS program division, said
that East Coast and Gulf Coast
production Of distillate must be
18 per cent above last years pro-
duction level to meet requirements
for q normal winter. The last two
East Coast winters have averaged
10 per cent warmer than normal.
Oistillate is kerosene and fuel oil.
Mr.. Hedlund said P. A. D. esti-
mates that operation at 96 per
cent Of capacity is the highest
level that can be counted on for
any extended period in the East
Coast-Gulf Coast areas. This
equals the record production rate
for a six-month winter period in
1950-1951.
There is no room in this pic
ture for supply Interruptions" Mr..
Hedlund said.

\ When we speak Of 'the tropics, !"

parts Of the earth where there is
a great growth of plant life. In the

The Tropic Of Capricorn goes
