Watson said he opposed the reso- lution because it would have the senate act on a matter affecting “Tom Heflin, the private citizen, en- gaged in private business, for pay.” Heflin said he was going to make his speeches in every state, including Indiana, and insisted that “Roman- ism” and Americanisq are in con- flict in this country. \FRANKLIN SQUARE POLL - ON GAS OR LUNCH CART ‘l'mmny Owners to Express Prefer- ence at Ordinance Committec Meeting May 2 The common council committee |on ordinances will meet at 7:30 | Thursday evening, May 2, to hold & Ihearing on the question whether | residents of Franklin Square and Pearl street prefer a lunch cart to a | gasoline station on the vacant lot on the corner of the two streets.

When it rains you don’t care where the water runs as long as it runs off and away. Properly constructed a home must drain quickly inside and out. Storms will come and they must go. And that’s where your eaves, gut- ters, pipes, flashings, leaders and roofing comes in. Under expert supervision a modern: Better Call Leroux installation should give service for a good many years.
