Doctor on Rents

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. Sept.
10 tR.-Dr. Joseph Z. Barrett
and the State Hospital Board
were at odds once more today
this time because the East
ern State Hospital chief took
paying guests into his State
owned home.
The board, meeting here yes
terday, ordered an audit of
rentals collected by DR.. Barrett
from tourists who came to this
area to attend the jamestown
Festival.
No paying guests have been
put up at the Barrett residence
here since early August, when
the hospital board first called
the former State Hospital COM
missioner on the carpet. The
board said 1t Is contrary to
State policy for State-owned
residences to be used for busi-
ness purposes.
State Senator E. E. Wiley,
eli trman Of the hospital
board, said DIR. Barrett has
agree to turn over to the State
the difference between the
rentals received and the costs
entailed in accommodating the
overnight guests.

the Soviet Union is trying to
accomplish by its tough line.
At the outset Of the London
disarmament talks last March
Soviet relations with the West,
while not particularly good.
were relatively quiet. As the
talks developed many Ameri-

that the Russians were nego-

The disarmament talks brought

last month when Moscow an
nounced the development Of an

I. G.. Burton Is
Starting Greatest
Car Sale Tomorrow
CONTINUED from page one)


Mr.. Burton has always felt that
certainty of good service is most
important to anyone who uses
either an automobile or truck for
transportation Good service can
make all the difference in the world
in. efficiency and economy of op-
Grating either a car or truck. AS
automobiles and trucks have be-
come more complicated mecha-
nisms, it is important to have ex-
pert care to insure their opera
ton at peak efficiency. The entire
service department of ]. G.. Bur-
ton & Co., Inc, under the direction
of Mr.. James Salisbury, is dedi-
Gated to that end.
In recent years, the service busi-
ness at l. G. Burton & Co., Inc,
has grown to an extent that has
filled the present department to
capacity. After much thought, Mr.
Burton came to the conclusion
that a building devoted exclusive
ly to getting new cars ready for de-
livery and reconditioning used
cars, would fill great need. 1t
would take all of that work out of
the present garage and the me-
chanics could be trained in new
car "get ready" and used car re-
conditioning to insure expert work.
Mr.. Burton hopes that all folks
interested in good transportation
will come out to see the new build
ing and the wonderful values being
offered in the End-of-Model Nun
Sale. Fifty models of the 1882
Oldsmobile, Chevrolet cars and
trucks are at I. G.. Burton & Co.,
Inc, and ready to be delivered to
the wise buyer. There are go used
cars of various makes and models
all in tip-top condition. These so
cars cover wide price range to
fit any need or purse. In this issue
of the Chronicle, there is two

these cars. Whether you are in
terested in new Chevrolet car or

the new building, do go out to 1.
