Havana ADDING
More Casinos

HAVANA.-This rollicking rum
and rhumba capital hit a million
dollar jackpot when the govern
ment permitted the plush hotels
to open gambling casinos last
season.
Gambling is credited with
boosting tourism and otherwise
adding to Cuba's economy by at
tracing new investors in every
thing from oil wells to bigger and
better hotels and casinos.
Wilbur Clark, the Las Vegas
enterpreneur, opened his lavish
International Casino in the Ho-
tel Nacional de Cuba last De-
cember. Since then, Havana has
eclipsed Las Vegas, New, as a
gambling mecca.
New Casinos
There will be several new ca
sinos this year, for the govern
ment now issues permits to any
hotel valued at over 81 million.
Clark and his associates pres
emily are remodeling the swank
Casino Parisien. It is to be 10.
Gated on the grounds of the
Nacional but will have entrances
from adjacent streets as well as
from the hotel. The night club
alone will seat 500 people and the
stage will accommodate a cast
of 30.
The central attraction Of the
new Parisien Casino will be a
huge Dancing Waters" display
which will be a backdrop for the
chorus line and show.
TrOpicana Improved
Over at Tropicana.. a $500, 0Gc
construction job enhances the
entrance to the night club and
provides a new gambling room.
Another night club and casino
on the lavish scale, Sans Souci,
recently inaugurated a nightly
bingo game. Now bingo has
spread to some of the other
night clubs and casinos.
This season will see two new
hotels in Cuba and another two
or three abuilding. The new st.
Johns in Havana opens this
month. The Oasis in Veradero
Beach recently opened.

Bennett Cert Interviews George Romney

Noted publisher, columntst and telep,slon
personality gets inside story Of reroiu-
tiondry ddrdnce in car construction from
the President Of American Motors.
CERT: MIR. Romney, why do you offer
total of so, 900 insurance with each new
Rambler. Nash, Hudson or Metropolitan?
RoMNEY: 1t backs our claim that our
single unit" construction makes the
strongest, safest, most modern cars.
CERT: Is there really that much difference
between yours and other cars?
RoMNEY: All the difference between
yesterdays railway coach and today's
streamliner Other cars still use prin-
ciple originating with the oxcart: A fiat
frame bolted under separate body. In
our cars. frame and body are welded
into one solid single unit" It's the big
gest stride since the all-steel body.
CERT: And this makes safer car?
RoMNEY: Twice as safe. Instead OF fiat
frame underfoot. our frame is actually
steel. box-girder enclosure as big as the
car itself Box-girders follow the car
exterior. extend forward clear up to the
top of tenders, almost out to the grille.
1t gives you "wrap-around" protection
in front, rear, sides and top.
CERT: That sounds like real protection.
RoMNEY: That's not all Flat frames
others use are stiff, so they transmit most
of the force of collision throughout the
car In single unit" construction, the
big steel box-girders up front absorb
most OF the impact They take the brunt
OF the punishment instead of passengers.
CERT: What about performance?
RoMNEY: That 'sa real plus "Single unit "
construction gives better power-weight
ratio It's stronger and safer, but eliml-
mates useless weight and bulk Our cars
have set many racing records.
CERT: And economy?
RoMNEY: They're tops. The Rambler
holds the all-time gas mileage record in
the Mobilgas Economy Run Again.
that s because our "hard-muscled" single
unit avoids flabby, dead weight
CERT: like plenty Of room and comfort
RoMNEY: You can't match Nash and
Hudson They have more room inside
than the highest-priced cars. And the
Rambler has as much passenger space as
medium-priced big cars AS for ride. the

greater strength of our Single unit "letsus
use larger springs. and much superior
front suspension.
CERT: Isn't resale value important!
RoMNEY: You bet. Rambler has top
resale value in the low price field In
addition to other advantages, with body
and frame welded as a single unit,
Rambler, Hudson and Nash last longer
and make better used cars. There are no
body-bolts, so there are practically no
.rattles, even when the car is old.
CERT: II all you say is true. why don't the
Big Three make cars your way?
RoMNEY: That goes way back to 1910.
You see. mere "bigness'' can be handi-
cap in advanced automobile engineering.
Remember, one of the biggest of the Big
Three was years behind others in adopt
ing the all-steel body. The bigger you
are, the more factories you have-the
more it costs to change.
CERT: / can understand that.
RoMNEY: Beginning in 1910, we spent
over $50 200, 900 to develop single unit"
car construction We got the jump on
the rest Today, it will cost the biggest
companies billions of dollars to re-tool
and rearrange their body and assembly
lines
CERT: Do YOU think they will follow you?
RoMNEY: No doubt about it Our major
competitors will probably make the
change gradually - piecemeal - or one
model at a time. But it will take years
for them to catch up to where we are
now Frankly. we will be happy to see
our single unit" construction adopted,
because it will mean better safer cars
on American highways.
CERT: Well. I'm about ready for another
car I'm going down to look at American
Motors cars

'Ki|gore'sSe Seat
Poses Riddle

CHARLESTON. w. Va, Mar.
is R.-The State of West Vir-
ginia today looked to the
judiciary and thought about
asking the Legislature for the
solution to the legal riddle posed
by the death of Senator Harley
M. Kilgore.
The term of the 63-year-old
Democrat, who died last week,
still has two years to run.
There is a conflict in State
law on how to nominate candi-
dates for the unexpired portion
of his term.
The State Supreme Court
heard a petition today by Phillip
H. Hill, a Charleston attorney
whose certificate as a Republican
primary election candidate was
refused by Secretary of State D,
Pitt O'Brien Saturday to test the
question.
Gov. William c. Marland, a
Democrat, was due back in his
Office after a fishing vacation in
Florida. Legislative leaders are
on record as favoring a special
session to clarity the nominal
ing procedure.
Gov. Marland, who would call
the session, also is reported to
favor legislative action to clear
up the dilemma.
The riddle is this:
One section of State law pro-
vides that nominations shall be
made Cd in the primary if the
vacancy occurs more than 80
days before the primary, which
is the case in this instance, or
(2) in party conventions if the
vacancy occurs within 80 days
of the primary.
However, another section of the
law sets the deadline for filing
for the primary at midnight,
February 4.
When legislators advanced the
filing deadline a few years ago.
they neglected to amend the Sec
ton dealing with vacancies.
Attorney General John G. Fox
has given the opinion that candi-
dates should be chosen in the
primary,

Bulletin Discusses
Wintering Ewes

''WINTERING MONTANA Ewes is
the title of new bulletin published
by the Montana Extension Service at
Montana State College and copies are
now available at the offices of county
extension agents.
In this publication, E. P. Circuit, ex-
tension livestock specialist, points out
that the goal of every sheepman is to
produce the most pounds of wool and
lamb per ewe ''The breeding season,
the wintering period and 1ambing time
are the three critical times that influ-
ence the reproduction of the eve for
the entire year." he writes. ''How she
is fed and managed over this six or
seventh-month fall and winter period
will pretty well determine how many
pounds of lambs she weans."
