The Commissioner devoted most
OF his talk at the Mayf1ower Ho-

lvisory Committee on Public Works.
The committee has recommended
that the building program be
financed by obtaining a $68 mil

free Federal loan of the same
amount, raising the water rate by
as much as SO per cent if neces-
sary and imposing a sewer tax.

imagine better life for them.
Already. the Bennetts are look

Bennett isn't the family's real

less happy if there were no such

Perhaps it does. But adoption

BOWLING GREEN. Va, Oct. 9.
The Army staged a demonstra-
ton of city-style warfare yester-
day and this regions carpenters
seem assured of plenty Of future
work.
The show went on in the new
combat village on the A. P. Hill
Reservation near here. This was
the first time troops have used the
place. and after few more per-
formances like yesterdays the
buildings will need major repairs.
The actors were a company Of

who have brilliant civilian fu-
ture if they ever go into the razing
business.
For several hours they charged
through the ghost town-styled

ammunition. pitching quarter
pound grenades and setting off
blocks of nitrostarch.

Nottingham 10 Press
Roosevelt Hotel Case
If New Guests Sign In

District License Supt. c. T.
Nottingham was to decide today
whether he would ask the Corpo-
ration Counsel to press additional
charges against the Roosevelt Ho-
tel. which has already been fined
$3.50 for operating without the
required licenses.
Mr.. Nottingham said yesterday
he was sending an inspector to
the hotel to see if it has actually
ceased operations.
The inspector. he continued,
was to check the last name on
the register and then return to
check again. If additional names
are found on the register, Mr..
Nottingham said he would ask
that more charges of operating
without a license be pressed.
King Holds Firm.
Assistant Corporation Counsel
Clark F. King, however. stood firm
in his position that he would not
press further charges against the
hotel so long as the management
"energetically" worked to bring
the building UP to District stand
ards.
Last week. it developed the hotel
had operated for the last three
years without a hotel license, an
apartment house license and a
public hall license. Each year an
application was made, but the
District never accepted nor re-
jected them until late last August,
when applications finally were
turned down.
No Application Now.
Mr.. Nottingham said yesterday
his Office has not even a license
application now from the hotel.
In his opinion. he continued. the
hotel is violating District laws if
the management is accepting any
money at all from the few remain
ing tenants or if the hotel accepts
any new tenants.
District officials finally clamped
down on the hotel. after residents
complained they had had no hot
water since last july.

NEW YORK lR-There's nc rest
for The Gilman. Having just set
fresh records-in the amount Of oil
pumped from the land, in the num-
Der of new wells drilled in any
one year, in the amount of oil
discovered and added to the ma
tons reserves--oilmen are being
called upon by defense authorities
TO top all these records this year
and next.
To find and. produce all the oil
the authorities think the civilian
and military needs require, oilmen
must have more drilling rigs, more
steel for pipe lines. They must
build more refineries and storage
space, They must have more tank
cars, barges, tank trucks and
ocean tankers. And they must find
the money Il. finance this expan-
Sion apparently more than the
three billion dollars they spent last
year.
Last year record 44.500 new
wells were drilled, and despite
record consumption of crude oil
they pushed the nations reserves
to new peakes. The Petroleum Adj
ministration for Defense has set
goals for this year and next calling
for more than 100000 new wells,

Closest Florida Vote Seen
In Presidential Election

electors names will be listed on
the ballot, as in the past.
To vote for your choice between
Eisenhower and Stevenson, you'll
merely have to mark an x beside
his name or pull down the voting
machine lever over it.
There may be some confusion
among voters using paper ballots.
AS they are printed, there are
squares for marking an x beside
the names of both presidential and
vice presidential candidates.
But a single vote for the two
candidates of party is all that
is necessary.
To vote for Eisenhower, you can
mark an x beside his name, be-
side the name of his running mate
Richard Nixon, or one beside each
of them. However you do it, it
will be counted as one vote for the
Eisenhower Nixon ticket.
The same goes for Stevenson.
Vote for him, vote for vice presi-
Dental candidate John Sparkman,
or vote for both. Any way win be
vote for the Stevenson-Spark-
man ticket.
But you can't divide up the pres
idential team. A vote for Repub-
lican Eisenhower and Democrat
Sparkman, or vote for Democrat
Stevenson and Republican Nixon
will be no vote at all. 1t won't be
counted.
On the rest of the ballot, you
may vote for either a Republican
candidate or a Democratic candi-
date as you please. There are con-
tests for the governorship between
Democrat Dan McCarty and Re-
publican Harry S. Swan, and for
Congress in the First, Fourth and
Eighth districts.
You will find a lot of unoppoSed
Democratic candidates on the bal
lot. You may vote for them one at
a time, if you please, or all at
once by pulling a master voting
machine lever or marking the
straight ticket box on the paper
ballot.
If you prefer someone else to
any candidate whose name is on
the ballot you may write in the
name of the man of your choice.
Voting machines, too, have provi-
sions for write-ins. Instructions on
the machine viii tell you how to
do it.
