when the market seemed to pay
no need to this serious situation.
True, oils with heavy holdings
in the Near East lost ground,
but they staged a partial recovery
on Tuesday and backed away
only slightly on Wednesday and
Thursday.
Tight credit in the money
market and fear of more to
come was another influence in
Wall Street, however. Some
financial sources believed that by
virtue of the highly advertised
inflstionary spiral expected as a
result of the steel settlement and
others to come, the Federal
Reserve Board might impose adj
ditional curbs on credit.

Three Major Links On
Eastern Toll Routes Completed

Three important links on
Eastern toll roads were COM
pleted and open to motorists
during the last Two months of
1855 and should facilitate a
considerable amount of motor
traffic in 1856" according to
John J. Quigley, Travel Di-
rector anG Assistant Manager
of Massachusetts Division, Am
erican Automobile Association.
Pointing out that the North
east leads the nation in toll
road construction because of
the demand and use created
by the high concentration of
population and motor traffic,
Quigley listed the new toll
sections as:
1. Sixty-two miles of the
Maine Turnpike, from Port
land north to Augusta. Start
ing from Portsmouth, New
Hampshire, it is now possible
to drive lit miles of contin-
uous expressway.
2. Twenty-eight miles of the
New York Thruway from Suf-
fern TO Yonkers, including a
three-mile bridge across the
Hudson River. This makes
available 424 miles of express
highway from Buffalo to the
fringes of New York City. The
final three-mile link at the
City line is due to open next
summer.
3. Thirty-Seyen miles Of the
Northeast extension of the
Pennsylvania Turnpike, from
Philadelphia to the Lehigh
Valley Interchange. This
road is scheduled to be length
ened in time as far north as
Scranton, "Quigley noted.
Another toll road of local
Importance was opened in Sep
TENDER of 1855 - the F.E.
Everett Turnpike from Route
8 at the Massachusetts state
line for 20 miles to Manches-
ter, New Hampshire, and it is
due. to be completed to Con-
cord, NH.
"A number of other toll roads
are under construction and
some are set for completion in
1856" said the AAA travel
expert. Perhaps the prin-
cipal developments will be the
two links remaining between
| New York and Chicago. With
| these two a bridge across

Of the nose and, at the same time,
exerts a local anesthetic action on
the throat TO reduce the spasms of
coughing.
Other components, including
ammonium chloride, sodium citrate
and fluid extract of ipecae, act as
expectorants and tend to Iiauefy
the tenacious mucus secretions in
the nose and throat that interfere
with breathing. Another agent,
mepthol, has a cooling effect on
irritated throat membranes.

breathing passages. II we couldn' L
cough, we would always be in dan
ger of choking to death. This is a
real peril in patients weakened by
severe illness.
On the other hand, persistent
coughing can also be dangerous. A
recent report in the New England
Journal Of Medicine noted:
"Functionally, cough itself can
initiate bronchial irritation, thus
beginning a cycle that may become
progressively more severe"
Medical literature, the report
states, is "replete with references
TO cases in which cough has di-
rectly or indirectly resulted in
death" The most common conse.
luences are loss of sleep, chest
pains and simi'ar annoying but
not dangerous effects.
The causes Of coughing are
many in number. In some cases, a
cough may signal the onset of a
grave disease such as tuberculosis.
But most coughs are transient and
not of a serious nature.
Particularly common at this
time Of year 10 the cough associ-
ated with the common cold. To
relieve II and the other symptoms
that frequently accompany this
ailment, scientists have devised
potent multi-sction drugs.

agents to bring prompt relief to
common cold sufferers. The key
ingredient Is q potent antihista-
