Rt. 6 Hampers Busii^iesses Dear Editor: An old fashioned American Citi- zen and property owner asks why the original main business route 6 .be- tween Carmel and Brewster was closed without proper notification ... and, what are the . business people along that route going to do now that the \iron curtain of the State and County\ has dropped down on their way in and way out closing their \business without any notice. Hundreds of irate citizens in this area got their first touch of State and County totalitarism when they read in their local newspaper that this road had been closed without any forewarning or notice from County or State officials. What County or State politician was able to pull this quick deal, clos- ing this road and bringing untold hardships on the business people'and residents of this area. It must have been quite a deal to the politicians involved who in an election year must be somewhat re- tiring souls? \ Public spirited citizens should do everything to stop this knd future secretive deals by the powers In of- fice. Very truly yours, JOHN J. DUPPY April 8, 1956. Pji A recent arrival in the clothing field is chiffon-weight corduroy, which should be suitable for summer dresses and blouses. This new fabric looks rather like the familiar pin- wale corduroy, but feels'no heavier than a pique or sateen.

Realtors Notice A regular meeting of Putnam County Real Estate Board has been called for April 26, 1956 at 12:30 luncheon at Alpine Inn on old Route 6. There are a number of import- ant items of interest, to the board as whole, that need discussion and ac- tion, so please be present. Offer drying, a nylon petticoat will probably need a light pressing with a steam iron. Too much moisture or too hot an iron will cause the stif- fened material to stick to the iron. ) One of the difficult tasks in this world is to convince a woman that even a bargain costs money.—Ed Howe. .m ^ V.
