TO Cost Million,
Double Output

Pepsi-Cola Bottling Co. of
Washington will construct a new
81 million plant on Rockville
Pike in nearby Montgomery
County, Md, to double present
production facilities in this area
and keep pace with growing con-
sumner demand.
This was revealed by Chester
William Martin, jr., president of
the Washington company, today.
The new plant will be on a three
acre commercial and industrial
site owned by Dermot A. Nee at
the Pixies intersection with
Rollins avenue.
Construction will start i'm
mediately and completion is ex-
pected early next year. Present
company facilities at 901 Seven
tenth street NE, will continue
in full operation with modern
lied equipment now on order.
Combined facilities of the old
and new plants will enable the
company to further expand pro-
duction. sales and service activi-
ties under its recently acquired
Schweppes franchise and to
stimulate the promotion of de-
partments for fountain syrup,
premix and vending machines,
Mr.. Martin said.
Various Sites Studied
The Washington mpany
spent more than a year study
ing various sites for the second
plant. Studies indicated the
Montgomery County site would
provide maximum advantages in
serving customers in the county
and in Northwest sections of
Washington.
Providing $4,000 square feet
of floor space. the new building
will be erected by Davis &
Plat, Inc. area building firm,
which has built 80 bottling
plants in six States in the last
20 years. Architect is Joseph j.
SchloSser.
A 25-year lease negotiated by
H. Turney Gratz, vice president
of James L. Dixon & Co., real
estate firm, stipulates that Mr..
Nee will furnish the ground and
finance the building.
Came From Parent Company
President Martin. AZ, has had
IL years of experience in the
industry and previously was as
sistant to the vice president of
the parent company. He resigned
that position early last year to
assume management of Pepsi
Cola of Washington and was
elected president of the Wash
ington company last May 10.
Largest stakeholder in the
company is James w. Carkner,
of New York City, its board
chairman, who now is chairman
emeritus of the parent Pepsi
Cola Co. Mr.. Carkner also is
chairman and a substantial
owner of General Bottlers, Inc.
which has Pepsi-Cola franchises
in Chicago. Kansas City and Des
MoineS.
Directors of the Washington
company include Bruce Baird.

The SEC staff additions, to be
made gradually, will be COM

will raise the total staff to

Washington and $50 in regional

with 875 registrations and a
value of around S11 billion in
the preceding year, he reported
Pointing out that the new
years budget is the first ever
approved for the SEC by both
the Bureau of the Budget and
Congress without any reduction
from the original request, Mr.
Armstrong said the current
situation contrasts sharply with
little more than a year ago
when further budget reduc-
ton forced the agency to stop
all travel allowances for several
weeks and farm out some of its
staff members to other agencies
temporarily.
There were around $500
broker dealers in the Nation on
June 80, up around $50 from a
year earlier, he continued. The
$50 broker dealer inspections
completed in the last fiscal veal
exceeded by so the number pro-
vided in the budget. The excess

One afternoon after the coat hao
been delivered to Gloria Conroy, Jago
was engrossed in mailing the seams OF
another mink masterpiece into geomet-
ric planes on the drying board. He
looked UP YEARLY. Peggy handed him
a cheese sandwich and can of beer.
He was too surprised to say thank you.
Peggy just smiled and said, You
forgot to go out for lunch.
She did lots of things like that
smiled as if she liked him; let her
eyes shine out as if she saw something
other people didn't see. She had been
a sweet kid. Jago missed her.
NOW THE COAT of the evil black
mink skins was once more on lagos
workbench.
He bent over to examine the stain on
the inside, up high on the left, near
the heart. A bloodstain. One of the
finishers had had Mysteries when she
was ripping out the blood-stiffened lin
ing.
Fool" Jago had thought. ''Why
should she be surprised"
Some said it was love affair, others
limited that Gloria Conroy had dabbled
in blackmail. 1t was three months now,
and her murder was still unsolved.

Mr. Wevburn came back to look at it.
Beautiful, isn't it," asked the fin
Usher.
Mr.. Weyburn studied it SOberly. Il
hope I never lay eyes on it again"
Jago chuckled to himself. ''But you
will, my friend" he prophesied silently.
He took the coat and laid it across
the bench With long thin stick in
each hand, he whipped the fur smartly,
coaxing it to even a deeper sheen. The
staccato rhythm of the beating sticks
at first drowned out the sound OF
Peggy's voice. When he heard it, he
turned to see her standing between Mr.
Weyburn and a man in officers uni

1t was a gorgeous coat and as I'M

knew they were evil. Bred in lagos
bones were the dark SuperStitionS of an
ancient race.
The gamblers wife committed sui

coat in to have it remodeled for

herself.

The forelady, the operators and the

was due to three things: his breath

temper. and above all, the genius that
animated his stubby little hands the
