L. Wilson, federal director of extension work, at a recent meet­ ing of extension workers from all of Michigan's 83 counties, held at Michigan State college. Director Wilson attributed the ’ present high favor in which Michi­ gan farmers as well as those from other states hold extension to these factors: From the beginning, agri­ cultural and home economics exten­ sion programs were developed on the basis of the fanners’ problems and actual participation of rural peo­ ple in the planning and conducting of the program was stimulated. Director Wilson pointed out the need for more extensive research into means of helping to solve prob­ lems encountered on the farm and Ln the home. He envisioned a fur­ ther expansion of extension pro­ grams to include those things that promote good citizenship and wellrounded living as well as the pro­ duction of crops and livestock. Another speaker. Eunice Heywood, also of the federal extension office In Washington. D- C-. expressed the hope that it would be possible to improve farm living as much in the next quarter-century as It has been passible to Improve farm production In the last 25 years. "By improving rural living we will also be Improv­ ing urban living because so many of Assyria Boy, 15, Is Wounded in Right Arm by Accidental Discharge of His Gun Fred Collins. 15. who resides at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Mapes, section 1. Assyria township, was seriously wounded in hl* right arm. early lost week, when hl* shotgun was accidentally discharged. Young Collins, who has lived at the Mapes home for the past five years, took his gun with him as he drove a tractor and trailer, the lat­ ter loaded with feed for a lot of cattle, on another farm, owned by his employer, about a mile distant from the Mapes home. He thought he might see a rabbit on this short trip, so he took the loaded weapon with him. placing It securely, a* he thought, on the tractor he was driving. When he returned to the home farm, the gun in some way slipped from the tractor, striking against It in such a manner as to break the hammer and discharge the gun. The shot struck the upper part of hl* right atm. causing a serious wound. He was taken to the osteopathic hos­ pital in Battle Creek. The boy’* mother live* in Tekon­ sha. Mich.

He plays some handball, tennis and bowling and looks os fit as Gene Tunney. He credits his rosy cheeks and superb health to his life time habits as a teetotaler, plus plenty of orderly rest.

Anyone who finds it inconvenient to call during 'office hours may receive a personal visit from Capt. Cooley by leaving their. name and address with the Editor of the Hastings Banner or the Postmaster. Warning, Design Wins Enthusiastic Col. Emil Tyden. who celebrated his 81st birthday Sunday Is still ac­ tively engaged in the development of new products at a lime In life when the average individual would feel perfectly content to "rest on the oars." so to speak—especially If that lifetime had included the suc­ cessful development of such Indus­ tries as the International Seal A: Lock Company, the Viking Corpor­ ation and the Consolidated Press Ac Tool Company which, through var­ ious mergers, became the Hastings branch of the Bliss Press Company. The International Seal Ac Lock Company has won more than 90 per cent of the market In Its field. The Viking Corporation is one of the leaders in its field. Success of the Viking Corporation venture (and its thriving offspring, the Viking Equip­ ment Company*, hinged largely on a new type of dry valve which Col. Tyden invented to break a patent monopoly which had hither*) con­ trolled this field. In all of these Industries, it was necessary to perfect a considerable amount of new type mechanical equipment, much of which was as unusual and ingenious as the inven­ tions. themselves. Yet. during the post year. Col. Tyden has brought to perfection, a new “flush type" sprinkler head which is receiving wide recognition In tlie automatic sprinkler Industry. Nothing like it has even been on the market before. Tills head is recessed Into the ceiling and so is about as near in­ visible us a head of this type ever can be. Thus it is ideal for store, office, apartment house, or other in teriors where appearance is an Im­ portant factor. ■ Tlie new head Is also being re­ ceived with enthusiasm In a rather unexpected quarter. An officer of high rank In the U. 8. Army Med­ ical Corps, states that this head Is the answer to safe fire protection in January 11. 1946 Mr. Richard Cook, Editor The Hastings Banner Hastings.

NUMEROUS REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS Airport Authority Advil One-Man Control For Fieli Moyor and Council Hear Opinions of Thomas Welsh. State Aeronautics Head , Thomas Walsh, chairman of the state board of aeronautics, discussed airport development and manage­ ment at a meeting here last Wed­ nesday attended by Mayor Charles Leonard, members of the city coun­ cil. City Engineer Ken Laberteaux and City Attorney George Dean. Elwood Bachelder. manager of the Hastings airport. George Carmoney, former airport manager, and Wil­ liam Hackney, representing a group of local flyers, were also present. Mr. Walsh, is manager of the Kent County Airport. Grand Rapids, and is recognized as an authority on airport development ahd man­ agement. Tills meeting was called by the council to get Information on which to base policies In regard to the Hastings airport. Some of the airmen here have favored an open arrangement whereby more than one instructor could obtain a lease to conduct a flying'schoo) or carry on other ac­ tivities in connection with commer­ cial aviation. One group of local flying students hove requested per­ mission to build their own hanger and hire their own instructor and conduct n seml-prlvate flying club. The Hastings Airport. Mayor Leonard points out. is public prop­ erty and therefore the attitude of the council In regard to it must be based on the question, "what poli­ cies will be best for Hastings and Barry- county?" Amateur flying is one phase 'and an important one) of a small airport's activity. Good management and safe operation are Remainder of Holdings at Lake A!-Gon-Quin Sold By Owners The Earl R.

Only a small proportion of meat So. the mayor eald. the question arose as to whether It would be best to open the airport to various groups for the establishment of clubs and schools or whether it was best to centralize responsibility In one individual. Mr, Walsh strongly advised the last-mentioned course of action. He said that in all small city airports • and he included in this category ill cities up to about 50.000 popula­ tion) Il was best to have one man in charge to insure safe and effi­ cient operation Experience has shown. Mr. Walsh said, that when several people or groups have an interest In the eonduct of a small airfield and none of them made exclusively responsl ble for management, satisfactory operation is made more difficult and the accident rate Is higher. I Both the state and federal gov- 1 ernments, he pointed out. are pri­ marily interested in safety. With growth possibilities in mind. Mr. Walsh suggested that any con­ tract with an Individual for lease of airport facilities, should contain a "doorway" so that additional leases might be made at some future time If the field grew to sufficient size. Mr. Walsh emphasized, how­ ever. that this was simply a safe­ guard for the future and had no bearing on his previous statement that a small airport could be man­ aged best with one individual In control. Mr Walsh further stated that two airline companies arc now in­ terested Inthe local fields and that one of them would be awarded the franchise. Members of the airport committee of the city council are: Don Siegel. Roy Thomas. Harry' Miller and For- the contrary, comes from stock which Is raised and processed han In the county. There may be shortages In soma the overall supply U such that there people to go "meat hungry." The only thing which could upset Ing" by the public—auch as is hap­ pening in sonic of the larger clUea. It is probable, however, that auch buying would have no more than a temporary effect since the total re frlgerallon storage capacity avail- sufficient to keep ahead of the sup­ ply Naturally, however, the meat deal­ ers hope that "panic buying" of thia sort does not develop since It will then be more difficult-to keep tha usual arsortment and grade* at meats on hand.

Nome Mjutrs’iiv.* On December 13, 1945, the Commission issued another order directing us to refund §7,000,000 . from 1944 and 1945 revenues and to reduce rates for 1946 by an amount estimated by the Commis­ sion to be §3,500,000. Michigan Bell has now asked the Ingham Circuit Court to restrain the Commission from enforcing this present order. We can afford no such reduction in our revenues,\ and the same conditions apply to the refund pro­ visions of the new order-as in the 1944 order, previously held illegal.

Moron cvairgellst and Rev. Doreen Spca-' All are cor- llfAMTEn VVANItl/ since a year ago and the national pattorn of fur­ ther wage increases is still a matter of debate. Other costs arc climbing higher every day. Unless conditions not now forseeable improve the situation, the Commission’s order would re­ duce our earnings to the point of impaired credit, which, if continued loo long, wosda result in in­ solvency. When the financial standing of a public service institution is impaired, rate increases arc necessary or the service slips. Earnings must be fair over the years or good telephone service cannot be main­ tained. If refunds and a rate reduct ion cut our earnings further, it will tend to discourage folks from in­ vesting their money in the telephone business. And we‘11 be needing more investment money from now on to expand and improve telephone service in keeping with the high standards you want. £ach utility, the same as each different business, has its own individual problems. During the war, we gained a large number of telephones, although restrictions prevented expansion of facilities to meet ordinary civilian needs. Wc still are far be­ hind the demand for service. Michigan Bell’s objective is to furnish the best possible service at the lowest possible cost. Since 1936, the last time the Company challenged a re­ duction in exchange rates, there have been numer­ We arc shy §50,000,000 of investment in facilities needed to serve today's business the w ay it should be seryjd. This plant already would have been built had it not been for the war. Now it must be built.-But as we add these new investment dol­ lars, with no additional revenues from the in­ creased investment, our rate of earnings will go even lower than the inadequate level to which it already has fallen. Looking toward the widest possible use of the service, we expect and want our rates to come down as rapidly as technical improvements will permit. Such improvements in the past have kept telephone rates down in the face of rising costs. But today, increased costs arc coming so rapidly that improvements in the telephone art cannot keep pace in offsetting them. We simply cannot afford another rate cut at this time. Michigan Bell's earnings today are a lot lower than chose of most industries. Our wartime earn­ ings were the lowest in history except during the depression. Now and in the future, savings from lower taxes will be more than offset by the in­ creased costs of doing business. Our basic wage rates, for example, arc up more than 10 per cent Whac.it ail adds up co is this —Michigan Beil is not in court seeking increased rates or large profits. The Company is in court AGAIN to con­ test an order which is contrary to present eco­ nomic conditions and which cannat be carried out at ibis time without jeof>ardizing tbc future quality of your telephone sendee. ous rate cuts, representing a total savings of some 57,700,000 a"year on the basis of present usage.

Waterproof, =dh»- BROODER HOUSES WESTERN AUTO ASSOCIATE STORE bear Mr. President: Your proposal to me in Washington last evening that the wage demand of the United Steelworkers of Ainerica-CIO be settled on the basis of a wage increase of 18* u cents an hour, retroactive to January 1, 1946, can­ not. 1 regret to say. be accepted by the United States Steel Corporation for the rea­ sons set forth below. As jou must bo aware, your proposal is nlniosl equivalent to granting in full the (’■■ion's revised demand of a wage increase of 19'.- cents an hour, which was advanced I' ■ Philip Murray, the President of the Union, al oar collective bargaining conference with the Union in New York a week ago today In our opinion, there is no just basis from any pu.nt of view for a wage increase to out steel workers of the, large size you have pro­ posal. which, if put into effect, is certain to result in great financial harm not only to this Corporation but also to users of steel in general. As I have tried to make clear to you and other Government officials during our concfefences in Washington over the past few days, there is a limit in the extent to which the Union wage demands can be met by us. We reached that limit when we raised our offer to the Union last Friday from a wage increase of 12u. cents an hour to one of 15 cents an hour. This would constitute the highest single wage increase ever made by our steel-making subsidiaries. Our offer of 15 cents was equivalent to meeting 60% of the Union's original excessive demand of a $2 u day general wage increase. Our offer met 75rl of the Union’s final proposal of a wage increase of 191-j cents an hour. A wage increase of 15 cents an hoqr, such as we of­ fered. would increase the direct labor costs of our manufacturing subsidiaries by ap­ proximately 960,000,000 a year. That la a most substantial sum, and does not take into account the higher costs wc shall have to pay for purchased goods anri-scrvices. when large wage increases generally become effective throughout American industry, as is inevit­ able after a substantial increase in steel wages. As you know, collective bargaining nego­ tiations with the Union broke ii(^n at the White House yesterday afternoon, because Mr. Murray then refused to budge from his position that a country-wide steel strike must take place, unless steel workers are granted a general wage increase of 19*/j cents un hour. Our offer of a wage increase of 15 cents an hour was again rejected by the Union. The Union threatened to go ahead wjth its program for a national steel strike at midnight next Sunday, although such a strike will be a dear violation of the no­ strike provision contained in our labor con­ tracts with the Union, which continue by their terms until October 15. 1946. From the outset, we have recognized how injurious a steel strike will be to reconver­ sion and to the economy of this whole coun­ try. Most industries are dependent upon a supply of sled for their continued opera­ tions. We have done everything reasonably within our power to avert such a strike. If a strike occurs, the responsibility rests with the Union. When the Government nt the eleventh hour informed us about a week ago of its willingness to sanction an increase invited ceiling prices, we at once resumed collective bargaining negotiations with the Union. Such price action by the Government wns a rec­ ognition by it ol the right of the steel in­ dustry to receive price relief because of past heavy increases in costs, something which the steel industry for many months has un­ successfully sought to establish with OPA I should like again to point out somo per­ tinent facts relative to the wages of our steel workers. Since January, 1941, the average straight-time hourly pay, without overtime, of our steel workers has increased more than the 33% increase in the cost of living during that period, recently computed by Govern­ ment authorities. Steel workers’ wages have kept pace with increased living costs. Such average straight-time pay in our steel-pro­ ducing subsidiaries was $1.14 an hour in each of the months of September. October and November 1945, excluding any overtime premium and any amount for correction of possible wage inequities. An increase of 15 cents, in accordance with our offer, would raise'strhlght-time pay to $1,29 an hoar, placing such pay among the highest today in all of American industry. Under our offer of a 15 cent increase, the average weekly jtake-home pay of our steel workers for a forty-hour week would amount to $51.60, assuming that no overtime is in­ volved. This figure is only $4.54 less than the actual average weekly earnings of these employees, including overtime, in the last full war year of 1944, when the average work week was 46.1 hours. The difference is really less, because we will undoubtedly continue to have overtime in the future, just as we have at the present time. In Novem­ ber, 1945. overtime premiums to our steel workers aggregated more than $1,300,000. Such reduction of $4.54 in weekly take-home pay is the natural consequence of a shorter work week of forty hours, and therefore one of lower production. Much as wc desire to avoid a steel strike, we cannot overlook the effect both on this Corporation nnd on our customers and American business in general, of the 18Ve cent an hour wage increase, which you have proposed. Such a wage increase must result in higher prices for steel than have pre viotuly been proposed to us by the Govern­ ment. Great financial harm would soon fol­ low for all users of steel who would be obliged to pay higher prices for their steel, higher wages to their employees, and still have the prices for their own products subject to OPA control. Such a high and unjustified wage scale might well spell financial disaster for many of the smaller steel companies and fnr n large, number of steel fabricators and processors. The nation needs the output of these companies. Increased wages and in­ creased prices which force companies out of business can only result in irreparable dam­ age to the American people. In bur judgment, it is distinctly in the public interest to take into account the in­ jurious effect upon American industry of an unjustified wage increase in the steel industry. After a full and careful consideration ol y&ur proposal, we have reached the conclu­ sion above stated. Respectfully' yours, Benjamin F. Fairless, Prtttitni, United States Steel Corporation John P.

M. C——- Most unusual advertisement of th/ year was written by David Sllberman and entitled "A Plea from a Bewildered Small Business Man." Bilberman paid 12.800 cash to have his piece printed full page in theNew York Times. Bilberman may have thought he was writing an ad. Actually he was giving to Ulis country the best edi­ torial comment which has yet ap­ peared on the present lubor-managemeni-govemmrnt squabble which has brought our huge industrial ma­ chine to a near standstill. Il was far more lucid and to the point than any of the Times' own editorials on the subject; better than anything the blg-narnc columnists have writ­ ten; better than any of the wisdom which the blg-name commentators have dispensed via radio Bilberman voiced the opinion ot many people when he said: T manufacture zippers.

For in 1946, the Scouts of the world are preparing to face the future— of building a new world—one in which construction—and not destruction—is the goal. A future that knows only peaceful living, where every man is • brother to every other man regardless of his race, creed or color. is the youth of today that will be the world leaders of tomorrow. It So, on this 36th Anniversary of the Boy Scouts, we pay tribute to this great organization for the work it has done in the past—for the work it will do in the future as the Scouts of tho World Build Together for peace and happiness.

When the steel plants shut down, manufac­ turers of farm machinery and equipment, farm trucks and tractors cannot get steel for their products. ; This year the farmer won't receive as many of the replacements he desperately needs. He'll fight ahead with his old, broken machinery try­ ing to crack another food production record, but the cards are stacked against him. All this means more headaches for the far­ mer - loss of vital food production, and a bad dent in his pocketbook.

The regu­ lation* governing what a youth inay do are so silly that we are alway* Irked by them—not because we wish a boy to do work that Is too heavy for him but because we know these fool regulations are keeping many a boy from getting a job. Written into last year's ap­ proval was the following: “No power driven machinery, no truck, driving, not to lift over fifty pounds." The boy we were hiring Is over six feet tall and weigh* 1B5 pounds, can drive a car. and could lift the fifty pounds with one hand and not hurt him: and as for power driven ma­ chinery. a boy could learn to operate a linotype with no more danger to himself than playing ping pong. He can go to school and work with a power driven saw. lathe, etc., but he farmers son he would be permitted to do much heavier work on the farm and nothing would be thought about it. Work I* just as ewenUal to the development of a boy's char­ acter as it is to the development of hl* body, yet boyi In town are denied work because of the silly regulations of the Department of Labor and In­ dustry. It Isn't fair to the boy*. You are probably asking why we have these *lily regulations. Our guess is that union labor has domi­ nated the thinking and the actions of the labor commission and that in order to limit the number who can learn trades they prevent them from starting to learn a trade while they are in high school. Time was when moat printers started to learn the trade when in school and finished their apprenticeship after leaving school, but this is no longer true, with lhe result that comparatively few youths arc learning printing or any other trade. This is a shortage of skilled craftsmen in many lines. In the cities the union* control the number who can be apprentices, and they control it in the country through labor commission rulings. Again we say. It isn't fair to the boys. Work Is much better for them than the Idleness which Is forced upon them. Juvenile delinquency In­ creases with Idleness —W. H Ber­ key. Cassopolis Vigilant.

R WOOD. Y, Clerk AUCTION SALE Poultry Column I will devole this week's column to the sub­ ject of OLD HENS FOR BREEDERS, and try ond justify our policy in producing chicks only from OLD HEN MATINGS. ' If it were possible to eliminate the poor pro­ ducers when they were three or four months old. it would be highly desirable, but with the present knowledge of the subject, judgment must be deferred until after the hens have been laying for six, eight or twelve months. Then, and only then, is it possible without the trapnest, to separate the culls from the producers. We think the poultry raiser is about done with the one year layer, and the breeder who selects his breeding flock from unproven pul­ let ond cockerel mating. Under such condi­ tions. it is inevitable that birds will be bred which have not the necessary vigor and vital­ ity. to produce strong chicks, and that many of. these same birds will shortly be dead. It is obvious that the only way we ran insure a lower mortality in the laying house is by breeding only from these birds which have demonstrated their ability to live and lay over a period of years. During the post twelve years we have spent thousands of dollars in the purchase of pedi­ gree eggs and chicks from R.O P. breeders who have built up their flock on the basis of hen liveability and production over a period of three years or more. Long ago we discarded the farmed out flock method of operating a hatchery and for many yeary have hatched only from eggs producqd right here on our own farm. We now have nearly 4.000 OLD HEN Breeders on our form, both White Rocks and White Leghorns, many of these ore going into their third year of production. They ore all mated with cockerels ond cock birds having a background of high liveability and production. If you wont big Husky Chicks that grow • fast and develop into thrifty layers come ond see us o( send for our interesting circular. We will deliver yout chicks to your Brooder House Door. Next week I will devote this column to timely tips that will help you make more money from your birds.

Many gardeners are asking. Ray Hutton, entomology department head at Michigan Slate college, is bc.intcd with Inquiries. HU reply—“DDT will have limited usefulness in the garden." He explains that the greatest handicap to use of DDT on vege­ tables Is the danger to humans from poisoning by residue left on lhe plants Ill effects may be suffered by persons eating leafy portions that have been sprayed or dueled wcently with DDT Tha poison hazard seems to be confined to use of the chemical on vegetables with leafy edible parts. Little danger exists when it Ls used on root vegetables or on plants with non-lenfy food products. String beans, lima beans, peas, radishes, and beets are among the safe vegetables. DDT spray or dust can be applied to cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and other head-forming plants. But II should not be used on these vegetables after lhe heads start to develop Elea beetles, leaf hoppers and cabbage worms arc easy victims of the new insecticide.. So is the cont borer in sweet coni, and no danger exists in its use on this crop. At least one plant is harmed by DDT. Squash U stunted, and should never be DDT sprayed or dusted. Cucumber beetle can be controlled on cucumbers und melons, but the DDT should be applied before the vine* start to run. Used after lhe plants blossom, bees will be killed nnd trull will not set. By all indications the big Job of killing Insects in the garden Ls st 111 to be done |iy the old reliable in­ secticides. such as rotenone, pyreth­ rum, and nicotine sulfate. They are safe to use nnd for most Insecfii just us effective as DDT. ■Harry O Baker and wife to Del­ bert 8. Peterson and wtfe. Lol in Woodland Delbert 8. Pct-non and wife to Garold R.

Sec. l.i Hastings Post Begins Drive For Members Sock Enrollment of World War II Veterans: District to Establish New County Posts Tlic Lawrence J. Bauer Post No. 45 of the American Legion. Hastings, through it* 'membership committee headed by Frank Scott, this week in­ augurated a campaign for new members, including veterans of World War I as well as men who served the nation during the last Coincident with the Hastings Le­ gion drive, the 4th District of Michigan, comprising Barry. Alle­ gan. Berrien. Cass. St. Joseph and Van Buren counties, began a cam­ paign to expand Legion activities and are currently seeking to es­ tablish posts in Nashville. Middle­ ville, Delton and other communi­ ties. Mr. Scott. In urging World War II veterans to Join the Legion, re­ ported that already 50 percent of the local post's officers were World War II veterans and that the “old" Legion was ready to turn over the organization "lock, stock and bar­ rel'* to the newcomers. There is no initiation fee required to Join the legion and dura are 83.50 a year, half of which goes for periodicals. Mr. Scott said that "Tile Legion, with its 8100,000.000 in assets. Its splendid club houses and fine pro­ grams, traditions and Ideals, is a great heritage for World War II veterans. I am happy to see the new veterans coming home imbued with the same patriotic fervor that inspired the/ounders of the Legion in 1010 "This Is the finest guarantee this nation can have Hurt the veterans of this war will not shed their service to God and country with their uni­ forms; that they will throw their energies and battle-tested courage to the solution of the problems of peace; that they will stand a* a living bulwark of our free institu­ tions for which they fought even as World War I Legionnaires fought, and in the defense of which many 6f their comrades gave their lives. We welcome every World War II Veteran into the Legion. The Hasting* post now has 190 members, including 70 newly re­ turned veterans.

The feeder's judgment must be used to a large extent to determine If the flock is receiving a satfefac- need of the breeding tion period advances.

Or, try part rye with rolled oats, or half cornmeal and half whole wheat meal. Remember to cook the cereal long enough so that It la thoroughly done and no raw starch taste remains.

Few people realize that leu than 50 per cent of today's homes are wired adequately to handle all of the time and labor-saving electri­ cal equipment they plan to purchase. Many folks are adding new appli­ ances year after year and plugging them into wiring circuits that were de­ signed originally to carry only a small lighting load.

These fund* were largely derived from local, property taxe* and assessment*. From 1926 through 1930 annual expenditures were about F800.000.000. Because of widespread delinquency of local properly taxes after 1930 tho local units ot govern­ ment brought pressure for large share* of state-collected automotive taxes.

Intricate in themselves, 'are taken for granted. Pipe and tubing are so common that we give little thought to the complicated nature of their manufacture. There is a problem, however, in such a simple matter as closing the ends of the pipe. Die forming is a mean* of msking a closure, recently re­ ported. A die is cut tor the shape of the end wanted. The pipe is fed In and the end of the tube Is complete­ ly closed by a spinning operation. Friction supplies the heat. An ex­ ample of this kind of work Is pointed tips for tripod legs. Modern Design Evcryc.ie knows what a curve is —in the road, for instance. Not everyone, however, appreciates lhe as change* In direction muit be con­ nected with curves. The curve that rounds the ups and downs Is a verti­ cal curve. A vertical curve between two hills has to be long enough to avoid the roller-coaster dip effect In fast moving automobiles. Modern highway design Indicates the need for, a much (latter curve In such a plate than mere comfort would require. For safety, the curve must be lang enough so that the head­ light beams' will strike the car sufficiently far ahead. make,,aM New Method Used For Construction of Veneer Furniture A new method ot construction wilt make JI possible to build veneer desks and qjhcr plywood furniture i.witp one-third fewer pieces and at “considerable less cost." a Univer­ sity of Michigan wood technologist has revealed. Under the method. V-shuped aids are cut tn the back of the plywood where a bend is desired. Glue i.; then spread In the cuts and the wood bent and held in place until the glue has set. Reported by Louis A. Patronsky Instructor in Wood Technology, the new procedure was perfected in Ute wood utilisation laboratory of the School of Forestry and Conserve-; tion at the University. The V-filot method permits con­ struction of a drawer from three pieces of wood, while the top and back of n desk can be made with one flat panel. Patronsky explained. "Aside from the great strength, durability and dimensional inability o! plywood drawer* made by the bending method." he said, "they can be recommended for their many u.m’s tn various kinds of furniture, including kitchen and filing cabin­ ets and dressing tables" Survey Shows iAdvantage ~ Of Improved Housing compllshed by good bou Ung, wheth­ er private or public, in terms cf health and community Improvement, a study of public housing projects In Newark.

That Ls the recommendation of Julia Pond and Laura Davis, ex­ tension home management special­ ists at Michigan State College. m they survey the prospects for new household equipment. They expect the supply of the small pieces, such as alarm clocks, electric Irons and cooking utensils. I to become fairly large during lhe | year. But the number of washing machines, retrlgerator* and other heavier pieces cf equipment will not be large enough to meet the im­ mediate demand. Many families wishing to buy will have to wait, but those who wait will benefit from newer materials and design So If you can get along with the old refrigerator or wash­ ing machine for another year, you'll probably be ahead In the long run. .

Naturally, residents of the Hastings exchange area want lo know how Hastings will benefit from such a huge under­ taking. Briefly, here are some of our plans:, • By spring we expect to install telephones for most of the families now waiting for service. To serve all new applicants and prepare for future growth, additional plant must be constructed. With good business conditions, we anticipate a 5-year increase of 580 telephones here. • Additions to the present central office equipment arc scheduled first among the major projects for Hastings. There’ll he more dial switching equipment installed, and the long distance switchboard will be enlarged. • Later in the 5-year period, we plan to erect a new cen­ tral office building and install a new-type dial system. A new long distance switchboard will be provided in con­ nection with the dial project. exchange area.

The MUOC secretary briefly out­ lined the wanton waste of the na­ tions natural icsources in Its short history — including the stands of white pine which were practicallywiped out tn 45 years. He explained how conservation problems, such ns the maintaining and increasing the number of trout, were multiply­ ing rapidly and that “only through concerted action by such men as you. can a real Job be accomplished." Suggesting that lhe club would leant from experience he support­ ed the alms of lhe new club as out­ lined at the meeting and claimed that It should easily reach a mem­ bership of 2.000. "There are 600,000 sportsmen in Michigan, judging from the number of licenses sold in the stale, and only 40,000 organized sportsmen," Gaines continued. "Organized spurts-1 men can make their voices heard when regulations or other matters need correcting." He cited what other groups have already accom­ plished. and expressed the belief that its good or better Job can be done. "Your club will rise or fall on the Individual effort behind it,” he coneluded. " ^7* “2TZ as this program appears, it is absolutely essential, if we arc to make ser­ vice available to all who want and need it. Nor is there any other way we can keep pace wilh normal progress and provide con­ sistently improved service in the future. Ambitious The money needed to finance the $120,000,000 program must come from thrifty people willing to invest their savings in Bell System securities. . This means that earnings, now and in the future, must be sufficient to attract invest­ ment dollars. But if prospects for future Telephone Company earnings are unattrac­ tive compared with those of other companies, investors will place their savings elsewhere. Too long a continuation ol a rate of earnings substantially below that of other industries would weaken our abil­ ity to raise the money required to meet exoected telephone needs. So the future quality of your service depends on tele­ phone rates sufficient to produce earnings attractive to investors. The telephone bill is so small an item in their regular expenditures that Michigan Bell customers want really* good service even though it might cost a trifle more than they would need to pay for inferior service. 119 W.

POULTRY COLUMN This morning. Saturday, we will make our first chick deliveries of the season. After carefully grad­ ing theie fine chicks and handling every, one of them several times personally I am more than ever convinced that old hen breeding and proper feeding just cannot be beat. It gives my wife and I great pleasure to deliver such large sturdy chicks because we know with average care they will be a great source *of satisfaction to our customers. You will hove every reason to be proud of the chicks you purchase from us because a great deal of thought and planning has gone into our inter­ esting product. That is why every chick you buy from us is from a proven two or three year old hen. Every chick is from d recently bloodtested parent• and all the eggs that go to make these chicks are gotherea right here on our own farm. Our hens orc fed the very best breeding mash we are able to buy and our eggs are seldom held over four days before setting: that is why our chicks are good from the start and why we guarantee complete satisfaction. ‘ . As a friendly service to our friends and customers • who read this column, I will try each week to incor­ porate some poultry hints that will help you keep your flock more profitable. No matter how good the chicks are the hatchery­ man sells you it is still up to you to do your share in proper management to get the best out of them. I will try and discuss brooding problems in the order in which they arise in this column each week and hope you will derive some practical benefit from them. One of the first and most important jobs in getting ready for your chicks is fhe clean-up job. Many people are content with a "bang up" clean­ ing job in the brooder house itself, but throw the refuse out in a pile where the chicks can later get into it and pick up all kinds of germs. While it is ’ very important to do a thoro job of cleaning, and this snould include a thoro sproyjng with crude carbolic acid or dead oil to eliminate any chance of carrying over blood sucking miles that remain dormant in cracks and crevices, it is of equal im­ portance tc move the brooder away on entirely new ground, entirely away from any contact with older birds or the ground they run on. This is very im­ portant in the control of range paralysis and coccidtosis. t _ ’ More about brooding next week and don't for­ get we still hove some open dates for Leghorns and White Rocks chicks for April and Moy delivery.

A iter the war ended, we weren’t able ** to get back into production of some appliances as soon as we had hoped, and production rates weren’t as high as we had hoped. A number of unfore­ seen things like material shortages made the job harder. But there were only 120 days be­ tween V-J Day and December 31,1945, and in those 120 days we partly recon­ verted our factories from war topeace­ time goods and got production started. During the year we turned out 2,313,791 electrical appliances. We shipped these appliances out practically as fast as made—so fast that at the end of tlie year more than 98 per cent of those we’d built since reconversion began were out of our factories. Most of them were in the hands of users. Then, on January 15,1946,our plants were closed by the strike. Not a single electric homo appliance has been built or assembled there since. And, because our warehouses are practically empty, your dealer won’t be able to obtain any more until wo can get back to making them. We want io get back to producing as fast as possible. The manufacturing organization is set up; the machines are ready, waiting to be set in motion. These factors will help us to do an GENERAL Nat’l Bank Bldg. Michigan even faster Job then we did in the months before the strike. But we can’t pick up production quite where we left off. Production lines are too complicated for that A great many things have been dislocated by the strike. When the strike is over, and the refrigerators and toasters and radios you’ve been waiting for begin to come off the lines again, we’ll get them into hands of our dealers just as fast as we can. They’ll be competitive in price. They’ll be General Electric quality. So, please don’t be impatient with your dealer-or with us.

This liberalization was recommended by the Michigan Rural Communications you can reach from your telephone. And that’s only part of Michigan Bell's vast 5-year $13,500,000 rural expansion and improvement program. Construction of more lines will mean fewer parties per line for many customers.

Baby chicks are creatures of habit ond it is very important to watch them closely the first few days. It is not necessary to dip their beaks in water to teach them to drink if you have plenty of fountains. Feed a little mosh on papers the first day but have the feeders placed and full of feed at the same time. The few hours spent in the brooder house tho first day may save you a lot of trouble later on. It is on excellent plan to run the brooder a little low toward dusk of the first day so that the chicks feel the need of the heat and will gradually work their way under or to the edge of the canopy as it gets dark. Thus the habit of correct brooding is established. Once the habit of wrong brooding or piling 'in the corners is established it is very hard to break. The chicks we started a week ogo are sure making rapid growth ond the hatchability, and livability are swell. If you vyont pullets bred to live, lay and poy. see us at once, as most desirable dates will soon bo booked. 107 E.

Service Dairy - 16% MEDIUM CLOVER BARRY COUNTY COURTHOUSE It is very important to confine your chicks near the brooder stove the first two days. This can be done by use of a circle of metal or composition board one . foot high; it should surround the brooder stove and be at least two feet from the canopy.

SUPERVISORS PROCEEDINGS Two chicks for each square foot of floor space is commonly recommended, but it must be remembered that is only for the first six weeks; the chicks should be divided at that time to one chick per sq. foot and still more later on. A good method is to move the brooder house to new ground at six-or seven weeks, then remove half the birds in to a nearby range house.

BANGHART’S BAKERY Overpopulation Problem For Fertile Cebu Island Cebu island, taken by Yank force*, has several distinction* beside* it* rank as ninth in size among the 7.000-odd islands of the Philippine chain, says the National Geographic society. It* chief town. Ccbn. was built on the site of the ilrst Spanish settlement in the Islands, and served as capita) of Spain'* new territory from 1565 to 1571. Including it* reIstcd island*. Cebu, before the pre*ent war. con»tituted the most crowded province in the Philippine*. Lying between lhe Islands ot Bohoi and Leyte on the cast, and Negros on the west. Cebu stretches it* 120-mile length from the Mindanao tea on lhe south to the Vlsayan sea on the north. Greatest width is about 20 miles. The area is a litUe less than that of Delaware. Provincial admlnlstrs|ion extended to many near-by islands, among them the Camotcs group lo the cast. Mactan off the cast coast, and Bantayan, lying lo lhe northwest, lutal provincial population was about i.ocq.ooo. Fertile valleys yielded tobacco, sugar, cotton, rice and abaca Iso­ called "Manila hemp"). Coconut groves fringe tiie shores. Despite good soil and .mild climate. Cebu waa rated a "poor" Island, and its people found living difficult. Thou­ sands went to neighboring Negios tor seasonal jobs in the cane fields and sugar mills. Migration of lutil settlers to Mindanao island was aidcd by the government. Chief items entering trade were abaca fiber, cotton fabrics, sugar, pottery, and native wines. Sponge fishing was important. Roads skirt as iranx-teland links. A railway connected the city of Cebu with east coast communities. , , j j , I | |. ' ' j , Now Owned and Operated By ARTHUR G.

Yet that is what inflation can do to all of us. Therefore, thoughtful people everywhere are concerned with ways to smother it before it gets out of hand. One major cause of inflation is a short­ age of goods when people have money to spend for things they want. Nor will the raising of prica ceilings solve the problem. When costa and selling pricee are subject to change at any mo­ ment by government action, production has to be on a day-to-day basis. That means uncertainty . . . reduced output... mote inflation. Thst cause can be eliminated by the production of goods — fast — in Quantity. BUT THERE'S A BOTTLENECK ISN'T THIS THE ANSWER?

Therefore price controls on civilian goods were substituted for competition to keep prices down. Goods will then pour into the market and, within ■ reasonable time, prices will adjust themselves naturally — as they al­ ways have — in line with the real worth of •hin<s.

One of the ‘most important problems in brooding chicks is the type of litter to use. Straw is not very absorbent and is too coarse for baby chicks. Most of the commercial litters used ore very good as they absorb moisture and keep the floor dry. Coarse ground cobbs ae good but arc apt- to mold if not entirely dry. If a good peat pr cone litter is used to a depth of four inches it should not be necessary to clean the floor until the chicks are eight weeks old and ready to be moved on range. It should be stirred frequently and any wet spots removed. If brooder floors ore kept dry there is less chance of serious outbreaks of disease such as coccodiosis. I will conclude these discussions of chick problems with some pointers on control of worms ond cocco­ diosis next week. I am happy to say our hatches are running better than 807? of all eggs set, both Rocks and Leghorns, and that our liveability on the chicks we hove so for delivered as well as the ones brooded on our own form is very near 100%. If you have not placed your order for chicks, let us deliver you some of our large, husky babies from our old hen matings. We absolutely guarantee satisfaction. We have a limited amount of started chicks to offer; can handle o few more Leghorn orders for late March and from May on. , Better see us at once because it pays to "Get Get­ ty s Better Chicks."

'Bring Your Sugar’ To Be Slogan for Tourist This Season "Bring your own sugar," promises to become a popular slogan on tour­ ist literature for small estabMahmente thb summer, since current OPA regulations provide no sugar for boarding houses and summer resorts with fewer than 50 persons. "These establishments are classi­ fied as Group One among institu­ tional users and will have to op­ erate under a system by which the vacationists will have to use their ration stamps to obtalnsugar." said Frank Scott, chairman of the Bar­ ry county price control board. "We arc reminding vacationists who plan to spend a couple of weeks at some summer cottage or board­ ing house with fewer than 50 realdents that they had better take their sugar ration books along. We hope thb early reminder will avpld a lot of confusion later, when Michigan should enjoy a boom tourist season now that wartime travel restrictions have been removed.” Scott said. "Restaurants and Hotels (more than 50 persons) are classified as Group Three users and they receive sugar for their residents.” he said. "If boarding houses with fewer than 50 tenants run a restaurant ifi con­ nection with the resort then they may qualify as a Group Three Scott said that In order to obtain the proper application for such a sugar allotment, the user would have to apply in person or In writ­ ing to the "Sugar Rationing Divi­ sion. Office of Price Administration. 144 West Fort Street. Detroit 26. Michigan." This Is the only place, where such applications are distrib­ uted and processed. Applicants should supply as much information about their Intended use of sugar and their establbhment as possible in their letters, which should be mailed early,.

Nomination For Governor: Petitions Now Being Circulated A sizzling race for the Republi­ can nomination for governor of Michigan began gaining momentum thia .week following the announce­ ment of Kim Sigler, the vigorous attorney who was ousted as special prosecutor of the Ingham'county grand Jury, that he was entering the gubernatorial campaign to fight fcr "more honesty in government." The entry of the former Barry" county prosecuting attorney, who rose to great heights in the cleanup of graft In the state government which halted when he was fired from tlie grand Jury, into the con­ test makes the campaign a three­ way race. Additional candidates may also enter the campaign. Sets No Precedent Also seeking the Republican nom­ ination for chief executive Is Lt. Gov. Vernon Brown. 72. who spoke at Middleville Saturday, and Mayor Edward Jefferies, of Detroit. Mayor Jefferies announced that his candi­ dacy was prompted by recent ac­ tivities of the grand jury and Kim Siglers diamlSMl. Should Sigler win the Republican nomination for the highest office in tfie state, he would be creating no precedent. Michigan's junior senator. Homer Ferguson, was swept into office by voters for hte grand Jury work m was New York's gover­ nor and 1946 Republican presiden­ tial nominee, Thomas E Dewey. Sigler plied up an incomparable grand Jury record In exposing and convicting grafters in state govern­ ment since he was appointed special prosecutor by Judge Leland W. Carr, now Justice of the supreme court, in 1943. He last no lime in setting up the machinery to ferret out crooks in the state capital and dur­ ing the following 26 months, the Carr-Sigler team brought down 10 ( Petit Jurors Drown For April Term; 4 .Criminal Cases Four criminal cases are on the docket for the April term of circuit court here and the names of petit jurors drawn for the term which opens a week from Monday were announced yesterday.

It Is time for farmers to view the future with caution. Cliffoid M Hardin, professor of agriculture at Michigan Stale college, told an as­ sembly of Middleville farpient and residents Saturday during the an­ nual "Creamery Day" program. Substantiating his contention that farmers and dairy men should be cautious of tlie future. Professor Hardin pointed out that rising op­ erating costs and an expected lower­ ing of prices for a few products in­ dicated lower earntrtgs Jn 1946. "Even though further Inflation is probable,” Prof. Hardin said, "the bast evidence available indicates only a moderate increase In prices" and some will go down. "Whether farm costs will hold steady or rise seems to hinge more upon what happen* to price controls tlian any other single factor. A re­ moval of ceilings would certainly re­ sult in higher costs tor such things os supplies and farm implements," Hardin said.

Ask Bean Growers To Increase Crop After Hike in Price Barry County farmers were as­ sured thb week of a support price to the grower of 87.00 per hundred­ weight for the 1946 crop of white pea and cranberry beans, choice handpicked basis, according to Law­ rence R. Farrell, Chairman of the Barry County AAA committee. This compares with a support price of 86.25 In 1945. The 1946 support price for red kidney beans was announced as 88.75 per hundredweight, compared to an 88.00 price for lost year's crop. -With the price announcements. Michigan bean growers were urged by the U. S- Department of Agricul­ ture to meet the 1946 bean acreage goal of 700,000 acres as a means ot helping to relieve the critical world food crisis. . Present supplies of beans on hand are almost exhausted because of a short crop last year due to un­ favorable weather and as a result a larger than normal crop will be required thb year to meet consumer demand for beans. will be our prosperity.” the former Wisconsin dairy economist pointed out. “With control,' he continued, "we may be able to look forward to four or five years of good business. If we 'blow our lop' she's going to go down vfith a crash!” Tracing the history of farm earn­ ings and prices. Hardin showed through' charts that in the last represented by sharp rises, leveling off periods and then sharp declines. He predicted that there would be no decline In farm output, but rather output would Increase over the pres­ ent high mark. Production today h 25 percent over pre-war levels. Saying that Inflation was already here in respect to land values. Prof. Hardin stated that land prices were already within five percent of the 1919-20 levels. "However." he con­ tinued, "fanners today are singu­ larly better off because, for the most part, they are out of debt." Warning veterans about starting out on a farm without full Investi­ gation. Hardin pointed out that many ot them are now purchasing land at high prices. Incurring heavy (Continued on Page 4. sec. I.)

The method is neither difficult nor expensive to use. The fresh-cut sap­ lings are simply allowad to stand In a wooden tub or trough containing the right amount of chromated rioc chloride, zinc chloride or copper sul­ fate (bluestone) in solution, for a period of about six hour* or until they have taken up the required amount of chemical. Tops of the sap­ lings are supported by leaning them against a tree, building, or other support. One pound of either of the chemi­ cals dissolved in a halt gallon of or the equivalent of a sapling which measure* about 4 inches* at the base Best results are obtained when the saplings are treated immediately after cutting from the stumps. The lower branches may be removed for convenience in handling, but a few upper branches left attached will hasten the treating process by faciiitaling sap movement. The scientists warn that all of the recommended chemicals are pois­ onous and should be kept out ot the reach ot children, pets, and live­ stock. None of them should be stored in metal containers. Because copper sulfate is corrosive. It must not be used in metal tubs or troughs.

The axiom "a stitch in time saves nine” is very apt in the case of this disease control. Perhaps the greatest contributing factor in this dis­ ease is overcrowding ond the resulting wet floors which make on ideal condition for the organism to grow. Chicks should be taught to roost as early as pos­ sible. After the chicks are ten days old. provide roost­ ing aprons. These con be mode of 2 x 2 spaced about eight inches apart; two-inch hexagon netting should be staplsd to the under side of the roosts. The frames should be hinged to the rear of the brooder house so they con be raised for cleaning. We like to hove our frames about six inches from the floor, ot first, then after the chicks are roosting well, raise them to two feet or more. Tne frames should fit the entire rear part of the brooder house ond should be closed in front so the chicks cannot get under them; by three or four weeks many of the chicks yhll have learned to roost. If they are backward about learning to roost they con be easily trained by forcing them upon the frames just, before dark ond keeping them there until all hove settled down. Chicks that ore made to roost at four or five weeks will be'much healthier and resistant to disease and will be more evenly developed than chicks allowed to crowd on the floor at night. Use of artificial light may prevent "piling up” of chicks, but I would not advise it*for pullets intended for layers as it develops them too rapidly. After the fourth week a flushing mash should be given for one day every other week and continued un­ til maturity. If commercial flushing mash is not available 40 lbs. dried milk mixed with 60 lbs of your regular mash will be a good substitute. This will aid greatly in controlling coccidiosis. We highly recommend feeding a worming powder in the mosh starting after the fifth vyeek. Worms ore easy to control when they ore young ond a sys­ tematic wormina program through the growing pe­ riod will keep them growing normally. Worms are hard to dislodge offer they hove become firmly estab­ lished. ond to worm only after the birds are mature is like locking the stable door after the horse has been stolen. I believe if pullets are kept relatively free of coccidiosis ond worms during the growing period they will show very few symptoms commonly associated with range paralysis. If the pointers I hove given in this column frorrt ' week to week hove been of practical benefit to you I will have accomplished my purpose in writing them. To the many customers we have in the community who havd bought chicks from us for mony years I wish to say it always has been ond always will be our policy to give you the very best possible chick at a price you can afford to pay. ond I want to thank you for your patronage.

The amount loft over to pay for the use of investors' money, was about >569,000 less than the average of prewar years, although an addi­ tional 136,000,000 had been invested in the busi­ ness since 1939. So the average returnon the stock­ holder's dollar dropped from 7S to 6|^ cents. future quality of telephone service, than, depends on earnings attractive to invas­ ion. So Michigan Bell in January, 1946, appealed to the courts for relief from a Michigan Publie Servin Commission order calling for retroactive reductions of 13,500,000 a year for 1944 and 1946, and lower rates for local service in 1946. H|T||DE Unlike most Industries, we have no alternatita ■ but to expand our plant when necessary io meet service demands. With earnings attractive to invertors, we can continue to improve the quality of service and use future, technical research developments to help keep rates that we give the best service at the lowest cost which will • protect the future of the business.

Board of Education Adv out 4/11 R M.C.' Elton R Eaton, publisher of tiie Plymouth Mail, to never one to straddle the fence on any issue. He believes In a definite editorial opinion positively stated. His per­ sonal column In his paper is headed "What I Think and Have a Right to Say." Several times representa­ tive from the Plymouth area in the state legislature, he is familiar with Michigan affairs. Returning re­ cently from a vacation in the South, he "went to work"-on the current gubernatorial situation. Extracts from his observations are as follows: "They' fired Kim Sigler as spe­ cial prosecutor for the state grand jury that has been digging up the dirt, filth and graft In the state government. Maybe it was because he was doing too good a job and getting mighty close to big 'pay dirt.’ Maybe it was for other rea­ sons—but no reasons having been jllvcn. the citizens of tills state have a perfect right to do what spec­ ulating as to the cause they may "Then the other 'thfy*' quickly •tarted a smear campaign against Sigler, trying to blacken the work he had done, hto name and hb character. * This appears to have been done for the deliberate purpose of influencing juries tliat will try "Kim Sigler apparently i* not the type of a citizen who will take thf* kind of 'gaff' lying down.. "He has announced himself ox a candidate for the Reputrifcan nomination for governor. If he wins <and we predict that he will!, he will be able to keep up nu fight against the grafters and thieves and bribe takers who have dis­ graced the stale ct Michigan over a long period ot years. , 'The issue of this campaign to a also out that the considering a statute, must into for its enactment and the object to be accomplished and that a proper construction of the statute intended It "to cover a felony wherein the fourth offense was such that for a first conviction the offender could have been sentenced to five years in prison." The opinion also stated that al­ though the defendant had raised the question that lie did not have counsel and was not advised of his right to have counsel, a case recently decided by the supreme court held that "it is not error, on a plea ot guilty by the defendant, for Hie court to accept such plea, even though he is not represented by counsel. ..." He also ruled that "punctuation alone is an unsafe guide In con­ struing a statute.” Attorney Howard Cavanaugh, VanVleet’s attorney from Battle Creek. Monday said an appeal to the supreme court was being contem­ plated. VariVleet. who has served almost 16 years as an inmate of Souther^ Michigan prison at Jackson, will soon be eligible to apply for parole. Residents, Groups to Submit Ideas for Co.

Chief objective of the effort In this state will be a thorough cleanup of livestock quarters, barnyards and lots, to eradicate parasites, germs, and disease hazards which could be a threat to livestock health. Cleanup suggestions, ofiered by the American Foundation for Animal Health, in­ clude: Disinfect Quarters. "Clean and disinfect livestock quarters, particularly where young animals and poultry are to be bom and housed. -Remove old straw stacks, by spreading straw on fields. Old stacks harbor worms, parasites and disease germs. • • "Clean up barnyards and livestock lots. They are often heavily In­ fested with parasites. where water stands; fence off those tpoU which cannot be drained. Wet "Haul out all manure; manure piles are sources of parasite infes­ tation. "Pick up nails, glass and other sharp objects which could be swal­ lowed by livestock with fatal con­ sequences. "Move young animals to fresh, clean ground a* early as possible. As addW health precautions, be sure pigs are vaccinated against erysip­ elas and cholera, have breeding stock checked for brucellosis and watch for signs of disease so prompt cor­ rective measures may be taken."

There's no place to go after you get there. And when you gel there, you've turning to your bustling post-war world, beset with Its problems. Mayor Allen Sawyers of t|ie City of Mackinac Island took the recent excitement without raising an eye­ brow. Attired in faded red and black checked windbreaker, stag trousers, heavy woolen shirt and a beaver cap, the mayor welcomed the arrival of a Hollywood motion pic­ ture crew which began the filming of winter scone* for "Thb Time for Keeps.” a MGM production which will bring some of Hollywood's lead­ ing stars to Mackinac between now and next summer. Among the vbitor* to Mackinac, during the MOM technicolor asv signment. was Ben Wright, secre­ tary of the Michigan Tourist Coun­ cil. The “Michigan Mirror-'invited him to report hb observations. Here they are: -Mackinac has a year 'round pop­ ulation ot approximately 500. half of them Irish whose families have called The Mound' home for gen­ t rations. Of the balance, about twenty-five percent are Indians who centuries ago fled from the windy shores to the center of the Islaffi and settled a shabby little village called Harrisonville.

The senator was not merely raking up mud. as his many critics claimed. He was. on the contrary, attempting to establish by documentary proof how and why our system of defence failed. With this knowledge at hand,Senator Ferguson believed that It should lie much easier to formu­ late necessary remedial measures. A full understanding of jhe facts which lead to lhe disaster of Dec. 7. 1941 was essential to avoid a similar disaster at some future date. Some of Senator Ferguson's Republican colleagues used their official position to smear the Roose­ velt administration, that was un­ fortunate. On lhe other hand, some of the Democratic member* of the committee tried to becloud the issue with politics for fear some of the revelations might reflect unfa­ vorably on the Democratic adminis­ tration. Senator Ferguson went ahead unpurtutbed by petty squab­ ble*. of cither side. He was inter- g w * An estimated 5.000 visitors.

"Certainly the new feed order Isn't going to curtail milk production anything like 50 per sent, as wa* re­ cently predicted In Michigan.

Fully Guaranteed S«*49 ’30“ Mom learned a lot about electric service during the war. She found that stitching up a cruiser and stitching up a curtain are both done more easily and quickly when electricity lends a hand. And when home-making had to be sandwiched in after war-plant hours, Mom learned that the touch of a finger­ tip brought her a dozen willing servants for the cost of a candy bar. Mom’s back in the kitchen. And electric service—always, ready, dependable and cheap—is there with her, making her tasks easier, her life more comfortable. Service like that just 'doesn’t happen. It takes hard work and good business management. The men and women in Mom’s electric com p any,—and yoyrs, too-make it possible. Lady » 10K gold.

Adventurous little Ixiya risk their hides on haz­ ards like this every day. But most grown-ups ahy away from risks—especially if they have a re­ sponsibility to other folks. Here at Michigan Bell, we have a vital 24-hour-a-day responsibility to millions of Michigan people. We have to keep our feet solidly on the ground. This rule applies toeverj’ phase of our business, includinu the conipany’a cantinya. Good telephone service depends on adequate tamings, and we must avoid any risks that might jeopardize them. Here is why. Thousands of thrifty people have their savings invested in Bell System securities. Their money makes good telephone service possi­ ble. In fact, Michigan Bell's 5-year 8150,000,000 expansion program will lie financed by these and other investors. And that program will provide more and better telephone service for you. BASTINGS GRAIN & BEAN CO. U» N. MICHIGAN FHONt 2671 So you see, our earnings are important ah around. And telephone rates — such a small part of your monthly budget —must be maintained at a level which will keep our earnings adequate. Otherwise, investor* would put their money into some other business, and the future quality and extent of your telephone service would suffer. ( We belfeye our customers want good telephone service, even'If it cotta a trifle more than inferior service. ■ , Technical improvements in tha past brought rates for good service down and have kept them down in the face of rising costa. As rapidly as future improvemanta will permit, we expect and want our rates to come down still further. For, Michigan Bell wants rates no higher — and no lower—than necessary to insure good telephone service.

The fine liveability of these chicks olreody deliv­ ered. and the fact that we have not had a single com­ plaint justifies your confidence in us. You have a gold mine in these fine pullets. Take good corefof them now and they will take care of you later. To those who hove not bought chicks because of the feed shortage. I suggest there is still time. gullets hatched in Moy will mature in plenty of time for winter production but they will consume very little feed until the new wheat crop matures ot which time there will be a measure of relief. All over the United States, large hatcheries are closing down or sharply curtailing settings of eggs be­ cause of the feed shortage ond the resulting lock of orders, ond millions of laying hens ore being sent to market in sections not in the grain belt. ' This can mean a very serious shortage of poultry meat and eggs next winter with resulting higher prices. Wo will continue to operate our hatchery through May because we have confidence in these predictions?-'' We have open dates from May 8 to June I on Leg­ horns ond from May 15 to June 1 on Rocks. Absolutely no settings of eggs will be mode after June 1 without orders. We are now able to handle your Custom Hatching. We hova about four hundred fine started Leghorn pullets to offer. Remember our prices drop one cent a chick after May 1st. Get your order in os soon as possible ond get your choice of Moy dates, before it is too late ARTHUR W.

Farmers Asked to Move Wheat to Market Barry county farmers have been urged to move all available wheat from' the 1945 crop of farms into marketing channels as soon as pos­ sible in order to speed wheat and flour shipments abroad to relieve the critical famine condition in many parts of the world according to Lawrence R.

Department of agricul­ ture ha* set up an Emergency Wheat Purchase Program with a price in­ centive of 30c per bushel over mar­ ket price If delivered before May 25. to the Commodity Credit corpor­ ation. Delivery of the wheat may be made to any county elevator which has been approved by C.C.C. under the .terms of thc Fmeracnry Wheat Purchase program.

THURSDAY. MAY 9. 1946 A TRIBUTE TO W. R. COOK HIS BROTHER, M. L. COOK For over 50 years my brother, William, and myself were associated in the ownenhip and publication of the Hastings Banner. Our relation* in that work were always close and intimate. During that half century there woi never a quarrel nor bickering, never a hanh or unkind word between us. Of course we did not always agree; for each had decided'iyiews. These were freely expressed. We had confidence in each other. After a matter hod been talked over, we found it always possible to agree on My'brother never claimed to be perfect and he had very little use for any one who said he had attained per­ fection. He thought such a person would bear watching. But in 50 years of close association with him I feel sure these things wore true of him: He was honest.

Circuit Judge Archie McDonald Saturday dismissed a complaint by John W . William V. and David M.

As a rjsult of the opinion, the public may fish tn Metcalf as tong a* nimfod* enter through the channel from Mud lake and do not irespass on Bailey property which surrounds the lake. The Bailey complaint was the out­ growth of a fishing trip last June 3. when William and David Bailey were apprehended by Conservation Officer George Sumner for catch­ ing bluegill* and sunfish on the lake prior to the opening of the season.

Sunlight, the right soft nnd I proper watering are the important 1 matters that need attention. The time to start them la now. . or as soon as possible And here are lhe suggestions set down by the gardening specialist for you to fol­ low. . If a hotbed or cold frame is not available, use shallow boxes and be certain they are placed in a win­ dow for plenty of sunshine. If no hotbed is available, seedings should be made 10 days later so that plants can be moved outdoors before they become too spindly. . Sterilize Soil Good garden loam, mixed with one-fourth peat moss nnd onefeur’h sand, makes a good starting soil. It should be sterilized, how­ ever, by pouring boiling water over it. Allow it to dry before seeding. Pure sand can be used and better stands are sometimes obtained by this method. Plants must be trans- [ I planted to good soil before they beIcome too large os sand carries no nourishment. Boxes should contain rocks or broken pots in the bottom to improve the drainage. • 1 In seeding, the soil should be I finned with a wooden block, leveled and rows marked off. Seed tn rows, ns the plants will be easier to re­ move and will gel better air supply. .Small seeds should not be covered. I Just pressed in. j Plants must be watered carefully, j Boxes can be set in a tub contaln1 ing a half-inch of water, which allows moisture to soak up through । the soil TT#y should be drained I after watering. Among the vegetables to be started Indoors around April 1 are: toma­ toes, peppers, eggplant, early cab­ bage. cauliflower, broccoli, celery nnd head lettuce. Flowers such o* petunias, pinks, snapdragons, ver­ bena. lobelia, ageratum and other tender annuals should also be i started now.

McDaniel of the Michigan State college entomology department, say* spreading poison bait on the soil -cveral evenings before setting transplants or Just before seeding will get results. Cutworms work at night and if the bait is spread late in the after­ noon or early evening, it is more attractive. If spread early in the day it dries out before the cater­ pillars come out to. feed. Cutworms winter as half-grown caterpillars and have ravenous appetites after their long fast. Most of the early cutworm* de­ sire wilted food. To Insure the next meal, they cut plonja off below the surface of the soli anef leave them until the next- Hight. They destroy many time* more plant* than they consume.

A startling development in the 1945 history ot marriage and divorce came in England from the Arch­ bishop of York, second ranking lead­ er ot the Church of England. The church leader told the press that whereas In 1914 there hsd been only 600 divorces in all England. Ln 1945 in London atone there were 4.000 divorce cases waiting to be heard, and his Interest In salvaging mar­ riage* brought him to declare that "adultery must not necessarily be followed by divorce since it was often the result of great strain and temp­ tation and did not mean a loas of affection," according to the Year Book.

The above list contains only the names of persons whom the writer knew well of those whose full names are given in ibis little book. Where only lhe surnames appear. I would not attempt to Rues.* the given names. There were other names given in full In this ledger, whom the writer did not know and could not locate. No doubt several of these should be given in the above list, but the writer could not place them. As stated, many more surnames only are in this Utile book than full names. Dr. William E. Upjohn was the founder of the Upjohn Company, one of lhe most prosperous and widely known manufacturers of medicines in this country. Il Is in­ teresting to know that, while he was In Hastings, he discovered and per­ fected a new method of compound­ ing and producing medicines which simplified and greatly improved the dosages given to patients. The writer can recall watching the early-day doctors as they mixed their medicines. The different kinds were in powdered form. The physi­ cian carried thrtn In bottle* In a good sized case. yWhen he visited a patient, lhe doctor would first jtounl his pulse, then look at his longue, then ask j a lot of questions. After that he opened hb case and began to com­ pound the doses that he thought would cure his patient. Them was no taking of the temperature, no blood-pressure test, no listening to heart or lung actions. Tiic doctor poured medicine, some­ times from two or three bottles, onu/ a paper. With ■ case knife, or tht* big blade of hb jack-knife, he mixed them as well ns he could with such crude implements. Next, on the end of the knife blade, he measured the amount to be given as a dose. Esch dose was then wrapped In a small piece of paper. Il was up to the patient to get thb mixture Into hb stomach. No matter how bitter or vile the taste, he dropped the dope on hb tongue and got it down as best he could. I remember lhe quin­ ine and some other awful medicines I had to take In my boyhood days. Now you swallow a tablet, or pellet, with no bad taste. The dose now b a far more even mixture than the old-tlmo doctor could make with hb knife, and swallowing it is easy. Dr. William E.

Such n floor aids in reducing thq mashing of pigs by the sow. On 49 farms where records were kept on 385 litters using both sloping and level floors, only one pig out of 30 was mashed on sloping floors while on level floors nearly one pig out of four was lost. A sloping floor can be arranged in most any kind of farrowing quarters, the report says. Where portable furrowing houses arc used, the front can be blocked up or the house* set on a sloping location. Removable floors built in sections with the proper slope cin be used in central farrowing houses or other perman­ ent structures. A slope of About 6 Inches per 4 feet is right.

In view of such a discovery *» the secret 0} atomic energy, however, we can't help but wonder what, the next ninety years will bring. The Michigan political pot Is be­ ginning to boil. George R. Averill, plain-spoken editor of the Birming­ ham Eccentric, sums up his opinion of two of the leading- candidates in the following editorial entitled "Brown vs. Sigler": "Apparently proceeding on the theory that 'the best dejrn.se is an offense.' Lieut-Gov. Vernon J. Brown opened his campaign, for Governor on the Republican ticket last week by taking a wliack at one of his opponents, Kim Sigler. "Mr. Sigler, you know, is the Re­ publican candidate who served for 28 months as special prosecutor for the State Grand Jury, and won 41 convictions, !2 pleas of guilty, and was ready with a bank and gam­ bling indictment when dismissed from-the Grand Jury. "Sigler, exemplifying the type of public official who can expose graft­ ers and convict them, has won State-wide attention and approval: he symbolizes the kind of candidate who wins the admiration of the average voter—because the average voter wants clean, honest govern­ ment. "Mr. Brown. In his openingvstate­ ment, said that 'I will not stand for insinuations that me State govern­ ment is corrupt and that Lansing is overrun by grafter*.' ,' • "Well, Folks, the- editor of this newspaper is fairly close to Mr. Sig­ ler and does not recall that the tot­ ter ever said that all of the present or past governing officials of Mich­ igan were crooks or grafters, or are crook* and grafter*. But Mr. Sigler, as special prosecutor, did prove that a goodly number of past members of the State Leg Lsl a lure accepted bribes for legislation; and that he. Mr. Sigler, if kept on us special prosecutor, would have shown up many more; and that, if he Is elect­ ed Governor, he will see to it that graft doesn't flourish as it has in high places - ’ "Certainly, Mr. Brown has n per­ fect right and duty to defend all honest past and present members of State government; but he would have been in better taste if he had even slightly admitted that graft and bribery had existed.^and that Sigler did his part In exposing it to public view.

According to figure* made avail­ able by C. E. Mater, director and supervisor of the county's depart­ ment of social welfare, the local relief agency last month was called on to assist in only 24 family cases Involving 58 persons—a small num­ ber when compared to other coun­ ties in tilt- state and nation affected by strikes and more dependant on industrial economic currents The 24 cases required an expendi­ ture 0!

In March too, nearby Ionia county had 82 cases requiring *1.873 and Eaton hxd Hi cases requiring (3.627 tn direct relief. During the same month. 853 per­ sons in Barry county received old age assistance totaling (28,507 or an average of (33.42 each. The number of persons had gone up 38 over the same month in 1945. In Kent coun­ ty. the average amount paid in old age assistance was (34.19 and in Clinton county the average was (3134. Total money expended in Barry county in March for aid to depend­ ent children, was (4366.50. The funds went to 68 who received an average of (64.21. Aid to the blind —which Included three persons— averaged (3337.

The report slated that Director Garret Heyns was authorized to start negotiations tor its purchase. He said a farm, with a large farm house and several tenant houses, would cost about *40,000 and could house between 35 and 40 girls as soon as the state acquires It.

I The then Methodist Church South decided that Pasadena needed a Methodist house of worship for that section of St. Petersburg. A modest little church that would seat about 250 was erected. As It was then ex­ petted that the town would grow rapidly, this church was located in a cleared, open apace, three blocks from the street car line. A number of houses have since been erected in the Pasadena region, but even tjow the nearest one to the church is nearly two blocks distant. Westward and aouthward from the church, for at least a quarter of a mile, there are no buildings. On the north end east are a few houses—none close to the church. When It was built there were only a few Methodists in that locality, and the church had a hard struggle. studies lite Field When the Rev.

THE ANSWER TO YOUR MILKING PROBLEMS INCREASES MILK PRODUCTION AND GIVIS BIGGER PROFITS Frw Demonstration FARMERS Market & Seed Store jts present customers, this company finds it necessary to decline to supply natural gas to additional customers for house-heating or other space-heating purposes. This announcement is made with great regret, but under existing conditions there is no alternative. Since war-time restrictions were lifted, the use of natural gas has been growing very rapidly. Total use of natural gas for all purposes injhe Consumers Power Company service area has practically doubled since 1942. Gas for heating is being requested not only for almost every new home, but also for a large number of homes which formerly used other fuels. The Michigan natural gas fields, which supply a large part of the gas distributed by Consumers Power Company, are being exhausted rapidly and, due to the shortage of materials necessary to enlarge pipe-line capacity, the supply of gas from Texas and Kansas cannot now be further increased to relieve the situation. The Company is doing everything it can to .improve the situation as soon as possible. It is proceeding with plans to convert two Michi­ gan natural gas fields into storage areas, where gas from the Southwest may be stored in warmer months to help meet the peak demands of winter. Though definite progress fs being made, this large undertaking cannot be completed in time to be of benefit during the next heating season. This conversion of Michigan fields into storage areas requires the construction of a 150-mile pipeline and a large gas pumping station, and the drilling of many additional wells in the fields, before they may be made useful for this purpose. The materials necessary to commence this work were expected to be available this Spring, but now it appeal's that they cannot be obtained before next Fall A year ago the Company was forced to discontinue connecting additional gas space­ heating customers in Hastings and Lansing and other cities in that area, which are at present entirely dependent on the declining Michigan fields. Now it must reluctantly impose the same restriction in all other areas it serves. This limitation-applies only to new installa­ tions. Customers who already are using gas for house-heating or other space-heating pur­ poses will be supplied as usual. We assure our customers, present and pros­ pective, that fevery effort is being made to increase the available supply of natural gas and that this limitation will be lifted as soon as possible.

Then if you plug in several more appliances or lights to this same outlet, thousands more of these ready, willing servants are crowded along the same wire to serve you. But under this condition they only sdcceed in crowding each other, heating the wire and blowing the fuse. You can correct this'bottleneck by bringing your wiring up to date.

Some »av I talk too much. God he know* that someone was needed iwre in Washington to rip lhe lid off the New Deal, give tlie people a look at what wa* cooking. Sidney Hillman, the Com­ munists and other pressure group* have their stooges here in Washington. You ore entitled to a representative who speak* and acts for you. and that 1 do. Because my opposition to some of the crooked schemes ot these who are creating discord, seeking by legislation to destroy ycur rights and mine, ha* been so vigorous and they fear »o effective. Sidney and hi* PAC-CIO. announcing they have million* to spend, arc ouv to get my hide, my political scalp. If you want to kick me out. that 1* all right. I will have no complaint. But I am not going to quit Just because Sidney turns thumbs down. Thousands of workingmen throughout this country know that. If aver organized labor needed a friend, it Is now. when public sentiment has swung against some of their leaders and labor is in danger of losing much uf what it gained during lhe last twenty I will support -organized labor in every legitimate demand. but I will not go along with tlicfr schemes when some politically am­ bitious leaders endanger the national welfare; your ability to get food, clothing and shelter My rympalhle* always have been, they are today and they always will be. with the man who must work for a livelihood, for throughout my life that is the way I got my living. Experience in Congress, where you go up under seniority; a personal acquaintance with—and I am quite sure, tlie confidence and respect of—a majority of thc Members of Congress—will en­ able me. if renominated and elected, to give the people of the District worthwhile service, and that without bias or prejudice. • "No man can serve two masters.’’ The CIO-PAC and other organizations a&X for my defeat because I will no^be their stooge They never support any candidate unless they think he will do their will. Thp people of the District know where I stand on every public 'issue. They know I have been fair, faithful and industrious. ■' June 18 is Primary Day. It Is lhe day the Republican Party will name its candidate for Congress. Sidney Hillman’s Political Action Committee, with headquarters in New York and millions at ita command, has decreed that I cannot be your candidate. But in this country, whose government Sidney does not seem lo like, it is YOUR privilege—not his—to make the chorta.

SICLER However shocking to the economic comprehension of the Croge citizen, the report of the senate committee invesjoting expenditures of the so-colled Michigan "graft grand ry." when Kim Sigler was its special prosecutor, impresses us a deliberately timed political document calculated to harm candidacy for the Republican nomination for governor. It looks like'a political maneuver, pure and simple. The •port is aimed at destroying confidence in Mr. Sigler, on the re of the primary election. And. we orc disappointed to find ur own senator. Harold D. Tripp of Allegon. associated os a gner of the report with two other state senators who Sigler □s accused of accepting bribes. Whether justified or not. Mr. ripp's presence on this commdta gives the impression that ersons interested in discrediting the grand jury had full c encc that he wolild cooperate. When Mr. Tripp was □med in a senate resolution, along with the other two, os a member of this committee, we invited him to make use of our olumns to explain the situation. He has failed to avail himself f the opportunity, and we have to draw our own conclusions. Inc of them is that we ore going to vote for Walder Y. Stanley f Hasting* as the nominee for this district.

H. D.

The figures have been checked care­ fully by statistician* and cannot be materially Improved unless many more hunter* send in their report Though 25 per cent under the peak year of 1444. the 1445 total, ap­ proximately equals the kill In 1440 and the late *30'* and 1* higher than many hunters expected "Boom pheasant year* of the early '40* hxd *0 accustomed hunter* to lot* of birds and easy hunting that they viewed a decrease to conditions like those of the 1430's a* a near catas­ trophe." Ruhl declared. Because of cold wet weather at hatching time last spring, pheasant abundance last fall was reported de­ creased by.as much as 60 per cent in some counttea. Department offi­ cial* believe, however, that ample breeding stock was teft in the fields to bring the pheasant population back to normal in one or two satis­ factory breeding seasons. Pheasant hatching and rearing In June and July will be observed closely, so hunting rules this fall may be fitted to pheasant numbers at that time.

The task of providing for our own people: of mak­ ing available necessary supplies of food, clothing and building materials: of giving to the Veterans the things to which they are entitled, is a stupendous one ond will tax our resources, our ability ond our determination. But the New Dealers intend to put upon the should­ ers of coming generations the burden of feeding, clothing, providing homes for. the people of every nation asking our aid. They propose keeping an oc­ cupation force in Germany for from fifteen to-twentyfive years and spending there two billion (not mil­ lion) dollars per year. The New Dealers, the Communists and the Political Action Committee of Sidney Hillman intend to control the next Congress by nominating their candidates, then to destroy our constitutional form of government, where laws are made by Congress, interpreted by the Courts and faithfully administered by on Executive Department. They intend to substitute for that form of government, which has given us all so much, regi­ mentation. government by bureaucrats issuing orders, rules and directives.

Veterans Administration officials also said financial institutions cah preserve a future market in O.I. loans by requiring only the mini­ mum guaranty necessary to secure loans Some lenders are requiring a vat- ' m=s= cran** full guarantee of U.000 on a real estate loan, or $3,000 on a ijon-realty loan, when a much smal­ ler Amount normally would be con­ sidered sufficient, officials said. A Veterans Administration SROkegr man cited a recent case in which a house sold tor 16,000 and on which the lender required the ueteran1* full 50 per cent guarantee under lhe Servicemen's Readjustment Act.

Since then, this bit of monkey science has been amply confirmed i by doctors reporting human cases who came down with severe attacks ।of Infantile paralysis a day or two iafter being chilled and exhausted. The advice of the National Foun­ dation is, sound: "Avoid over-tiring and extreme fatigue from over-ex­ ercise.

A monument built of enduring granite, symbolic in design, revcrenl in purpose, resting in surroundings of peace and beauty, a tribute of respect ond honor to thc dead and on inspiration to the living.

METCALF LAKE IS PRIVATE BUT PUBLIC FISH LAWS APPLY Metcalf lake In Assyria township, a 30-acrc body of water, is a private | lake but because fish can and do | migrate from It into public waters. । the state has jurisdiction over it. Clrcsfit Judge Archie McDonald ruled in a recent decree in the con­ troversial case which has attracted widespread attention. * The Judge's decree, which dis­ missed an injunction obtained by John W.. William V. and David M. Bailey, prominent Battle Creek resi­ dents, preventing Conservation Of­ ficer George Sumner from bringing criminal action on a fish law viola­ tion. stated that "the state of Mich­ igan has jurisdiction over said pri­ vate waters. . . and the stream be­ tween Metcalf lake and Mud lake, to enforce the fish-laws and lo con­ trol the manner and time of taking fish.” No Trcpamlnr The decree continued that thc public has no right to trespass upon the lands adjoining the waters— which Includes the stream connect­ ing Metcalf and Mud lake. The decree followed an opinion, filed in May. which had been inter­ preted os meaning that the public may fish in the Bailey lake as long as nlmrod* entered through thc channel and did not trespass on the Bailey property. The case was the outgrowth of a fishing trip June 3. 1945. when Wil­ liam and David were apprehended bv Officer Sumner for catching blue­ gills out of season The Baileys ob­ tained s temporary injunction re­ straining criminal proceedings from being brought against them for the fish violation. The decree U ex­ pected to bring a renewal of thc criminal complaint against the brothers. Prior to the opening of the season June 25 it was reported that local nlmrods were lo test whether or not they could be prevented by the Bai­ leys from fishing the lake if they approached it via the cluinne!, bui no attempt has been reported. Il was reported, however, that Aitorneys Bailey and Howard Cavanagh, also of Battle Creek, did fish the lake opening day and their catch to­ taled one fish. 31 Local, Woodland Scouts Go to Camp PLAYGROUNDSRIMG DAILY AS 224 KIDS Accompanied by the Rev.

Many say, "The O.P.A. is gone. When are we going to get the things we need?" Personally, I wish the O.P.A. was gone. We will feel the results of its mistakes for a long time. Industry would be fool­ .......... ish to rush ah£ad today, produce, or start producing goods at greatly increased ’ costs and tomorrow have the O.P.A. back and set the ceiling prices as of 1941. O.P.A. was set up to control prices during the war and it did a good job. It has since been kept in power to prevent inflation. We have Inflation only when money is plentiful, goods are scarce and the demand for merchandise exceeds the supply*—Any price control that stops or hinders production of goods multiplies the danger of inflation and defeats its own objective. This is what O.P.A. has done since Japan surrendered nearly a • h’fl ♦he policy year ago. It has granted increased prices of raw material and industry has been forced to pay higher wages, but.QJ*.A. has not allowed increases in ceiling prices to offset the increased cost of production. In short, they have taken the profit away from the producer and destroyed his incentive to make goods. Who blames him for not making items on which he loses money? I have more confidence in the ability of industry to prevent a "run away" infla­ tion than I have in the power of govern­ ment to prevent it. No business of any kind, large or small, wants prices to get out of control. Thomas Jefferson said "When government regulates agricul­ ture, the people will go hungry.” He could have added that when government controls industry, the people go without. These are my conclusions after reading several trade journals and talking with manufacturers from Cleveland to Chi-cago to St. Louis. llwt •♦or« that price* ghwM «o» -faJvifhar-thaw-ta-allaw — -------------- a producer a fair profit and when tha price goc* above that I'll refute to buy, and if the comumer will do the tame, there will be no "run away" price* rfnd in a short time the natural law of *upply and demand, which I* a bettor law ♦han any made by Congret*, will regulate prices to they are fair to fhe con­ sumer ond producer alike.

WHY A MEMORIAL? A monument built of enduring granite, symbolic in design, reverent in purpose, resting in surroundings of peace and beauty, a tribute of respect and honor to the dead and on inspiration to the living.

Una, but one thing they decided not to overlook waa the role of files in carrying and spreading infantile paralysis Tn do thia they art up a novel experiment. First they pur­ chased some bananas They the... (elected a home where a young child had been taken ill with Infantile paralysis. Tn the patient’s home the bananas wfre peeled and sliced tn open dishes. After sprinkling some sugar on the top they placed dishes of sliced bananas on a table and warned the family not to touch the bait. For two with files constantly buzzing arqund and settling on them. When the investigator* had decided that the food had been contaminated as much as possible, they packed the banana*, freextrtg them with dry ice. for shipment back to the laborator­ ies in Yale. At Yale University the real work of the experiment began. Expen­ sive, hard-to-get chimpanzees were selected for the work, and using the utmost caution to prevent contam- j ination from other sources, the Yale doctors fed the sliced banana* to two chimpanzees. Immediately. test* begun. Within a short time the doctors discovered that the 6owel eliminations from both animala were loaded with the virus of Infantile paralysis. Unaware that they were making apparently healthy with no symptoms of infection, even though their stool specimens when injected into small monkeys produced cllnleal symptoms of infantile paralysis. Recovering active virus from these chimpanzees proved that food ex­ posed to files in the home of an in­ fantile paralysis patient could infect laboratory animals. Where did the virus come from? That was the next question to be fpm Yale. It was not possible that the food had become contaminated with virus in any other place except the home of the patient because the July Fourth provided my biggest thrill since V-J Day, the thrill of seeing our neighbors achieve their Independence on the Phllliptae Islands.

Thirty-one ponds covering 4fl acres at seven Michigan fish rear­ ing plants are now devoted to ex­ periments by the conservation de­ partment's fish division in propagat­ ing bait minnows. Spurred by scarcity of minnows both among bait dealers and in some waters which formerly supplied local fishermen, the division Is develop­ ing the “know how" of minnow rais­ ing, so dealers will be encouraged to grow their own. The Drayton Plains, Hastings, Harrisville, Comstock Park and Wolf Lake state hatcheries, the federal hatchery at Northville, and the Al­ mena state resting station are par­ ticipating in the experiments, now in their second year. Records will aiiow the prospective private min­ now rabcr not only which methods arc practical, but Die equally im­ portant facts on costs. Typical of the information al­ ready acquired ore the facts that creek chub eggs arc readily incu­ bated in hatchery Jars and chub fry ; are hardy enough to withstand long , hauls in milk cans, but that suckers i are delicate in the fry stage, and I not easily handled without conoid-! erable mortality Besides chubs and suckers golden shiners are now being grown, and northern pearl dace and northern fine scale dace each have a pond set aside for them. A handbook of minnow culture, based on the experiments, will be is- j sued later thb year. Last season the divbion sold a small surplus I of minnows produced in the ex­ perlmenu. for two cents apiece, and this year it lias an estimated 1.000.­ 000 on hand, with orders for 100,000 already booked.

De- Founded thirty-nine years ago today, the Army Air Forces has come a long way from small and experimental beginnings. Back in 1907 there were only one officer and two enlisted men. There were no airplanes until two years later, when Orville Wright delivered his first military craft The giant, triumphant force which speeded the end of World War II grew out of the vision and ingenuity of the men who saw, from the first, the immensity of air power. Many of those pioneering airmen are turning their abilities to the demands of the future. The Air Forces that crushed Germany’s ability to make war and finished Japan with life-saving speed, was made up of bombers and fighters whose sole*aim was to end the horror of war. Today, in addition to fighters and bombers for defense, the Army Air Forcvs has begun a mighty research program for the benefit of a world at peace. Equipped with the latest in radar devices, Army Air Forces planes are able to fly into storm zones, chart the course and speed of an approaching hurricane, and rush the warning to weather stations in time to avert waste and tragedy. Experimental jet-propelled planes, with Army fliers at the controls, will pioneer the way to speeds faster than sound. Improved design, greater engine power, and new flight techniques will open the way to still greater safety in commercial transport. Aimy bombers will be the first to test and report on innovations which later will be made available to the • nation’s civil air lines. . "our. Side by side with technological progress, goes the Air Forces’ vital duty of preserving world peace and national security. The nation’s safety, in a world where distance now means little, rests with the men who fly. It is to them that we offer our thanks-with the promise that we will do our part toward keeping alive the hope for world peace. The future of the Air Forces ia the future of the nation. 1/ip mission of th® Army Air Forces tn peacetime is to develop and maintain a military air force capable of immediate, sustained, and expanding application of the doctrine of military air power. It must be geared to work in harmony with the nation's ground and naval services in supporting American foreign policy and maintain­ ing the peace. For this task in national security the Army Air Forces needs the full support of the American people.” The Army Air Forces’ new B-36 bomber. Six pusher engines develop 18,000 total horsepower.

MICHIGAN. THURSDAY. AUGUST I. 1946 Fall Creek Powered Grist, Saw Mills ’Way Back When; Writer Tells of ’Rocket Death When my father and our family moved from the Prairieville farm to Hastings In the fall'of 1863, and for several years thereafter, there was a small, red grist mill; and an old-fashioned, urplght saw. Ths grist mill and most of the saw mill were In what is now Bollwood street, just south of State street. Both mills were owned by Oscar Hadley. They were operated by water power. The water came to, them via a short mill race that connected wilh "Hadley's dam." The dam embankment stood on East Court street. It extended for a little leas than a block between Michigan Avenue and Boltwood street. The banks of this dam were about u high as the present Court street roadway across lhe narrow Fall creek valley at that point . 4 Blocks Long Till* dam impounded the water brought to it by Fall creek, which was then a much larger stream than can be easily understood by observ­ ing the considerable fall in that creek from the Ketcham road to Grand street. The water in the Hadley dam extended four blocks south from little less than a block wide. In places toward the lower end. from Green street to Court, it was quite dam. Both mills ground the grists which were brought by farmers and a few girts, who loved skating. There were no refrigerators nor ice boxes in the Hastings of that pe­ riod. A few families here had Ice houses. They were filled in winter with ice from this pond. Then lhe kids had to be careful about gclnt near the thin ley that soon formed on the places where ice had been cut. The blocks of Ice were packed mill this pond to permit bathing It In. when the swlrnrn#r wore the suit that nature furnished. The pond water did not look inviting in the summer time, for there was usually n green scum on top of ft that ar­ gued against "going in swimming" In that pond. Thornapple river was much better. The deep water in the bend of that stream near the Bookswimming hole" for the kids of that day—many years before a Bookcase factory was even dreamed of.

MARY LANE ^JUNIOR LANE I The appropriation made by con­ gress proposed that equal payments live years, so it is probable that lhe paving ot M3’ on Ute relocated line will not be completed until 1948 h beginning at the Grand Rapids end •of the line. The paving should be [completed to Middleville in 1948. I An excellent piece of work ’has [been done on M37 all the way from Middleville to Battle Creek. When the paving is completed to Grand Rapids It wiU be as fine as any in Lhe stale. There will be no grade L crossings of railroads. All the care­ ful driver will need to do Is to have I hl* own car under control, and ; watch the other follow. | M37 is destined to be one of the leading north-and-south trunk lines ■ of Michigan. With the completion , of the Middleville- to Grand Rapid* I section. M37 will be paved well be­ yond Newaygo — all recent paving ■When completed to Traverse City. It will be a much-travelled highway. I At Traverse City It will connect ■with paved highways leading to Pcitoskey and Mackinaw City. Our understanding Is that conlaiderable paving will be done on the northern end of the line within the ‘next two years, our readers will ■be interested In that too. But their 1 present concern la the paving be। tween Middleville and Grand Rap­ hide. They hope nothing will pre­ vent that by the end of 1948. Superforta .. . > (Continued 'rom Page 1. Sec. 1.)

(Continued from Page i. Sec. 1.) knev* of several children who had contracted infantile paralysis after wading and swimming in the creek. -Some of Uiem." he said, "hod upset stomachs after swimming In the waler.” There . was evidence also that the stream was being polluted at a number of places by water Containing sewage. The polio scientists set up their testing stations at various sections of the creek: <1> where it entered the town: (2> where It left the town; and.<31 at a mld-polni near where contaminated sewage was flowing into the creek. -After col­ lecting many samples of creek water the scientist* left Perrysburg and returned to the laboratory to begin the arduom work of proving the presence of the virus. The first animals used were wild cotton rats but not much Success was had with these animals as they died shortly after inoculatlon\ with .samples ot creek water without showing signa of infantile paralysis Undismayed by these aitparent {fail­ ures. lhe scientists removed! the spinal cord and brains of the dead rats and made emulsions of these organs which they Injected into, another group of cotton rats. The second series of animals alvi died without signs of polio, but doggedly the scientists continued the inoculations Into other rats. Finally their efforts were rewarded. The seventh series of injected co'ton rats showed symptoms of Infantile paralysis. To confirm their result.* they once more removed the spinal curd and brains of the dead rats and Injected an emulsion of this Into monkeys. When the monkeys became sick and paralyzed with polio lhe research work was com­ plete. Tltc polio scientists hud prov­ ed that the creek water contained lhe virus of infantile paralysis. Although the doctors were unable to prove conclusively that any ot the cases of polio In Perrysburg had been directly caused by swimming in the creek, there was the unde­ niable fact that many of the chil­ dren had waded In the water prior U> their Illness. When the results of the scientific experiments demonstrated the pres­ ence of the infecting virus in the polluted stream, the chain of cir­ cumstantial evidence was complete Once again It strengthened the pre­ caution which should be followM during epidemics, -Do not swim In polluted water.” 3 Land in Jail, Another Pays Fine After Row at Fair An altercation In one of the bams on the Fairgrounds on Thursday landed two persons in the county jail cost a third $10.50 and a fourth -who got into it later—joined the first two in the county’s calaboose.

Each of the indicated communities on the map con^ tains one or more of the 128 "Blue Cross Hospitals.” These liospitais recognize that payment for needed hospital care presents a serious problem the great majority of individuals and families. Through Michi­ gan Hospital Service, their own non-profit organiza­ tion, they provide a convenient, low-cost method of meeting this problem. Hospitals are "bright spots on the map" for many reasons. Throughout history they have furnuhed refuge for the sick and suffering. Today they are cen­ ters of incomparable scientific skills and facilities—all dedicated to the service the people. And now they have reached out still further to dcvelope the Blue Cross as their own means of enabling the people to dismiss worry over the problem of pay­ ment for the humanitarian services they provide.

Clothes stored slightly damp, where air cannot circulate through them on hot summer days, may mil­ dew according to Lola Belle Green, extension specialist in clothing at Michigan State college.

A study of reading interests of boys and glrta showed that Interest In reading reacbM its maximum in the fifth grade and declines there­ after to a low point in the tenth grade, Professor Clifford Woody, ex­ plained. Purpose of the study was to find out wlmt types of books hsve most Interest for students to help educstors In planning courses of study for maximum pupil Interest. Lag in reading interest in the upper grades does not necessarily mean that those students are learn­ ing less, Prof. Woody adds. As pupils advance in age. they become more interested in doing things than in reading about them and there are also demands upon the time of the older students If high school students arc to take more interest tn literature, they will hove to spend less time and effort on other scltool subjects and on outside activities, the educator con­ cludes.

Nearly fl.000 delegates and guests attended the meetings and heard Basil O'Connor, national chairman, announce that the organization will not be able to return to a total peacetime budget for an Indefinite period and urged that the public be educated not to expect an immediate and drastic reduction of its wartime operating expenses as there are still millions of Americans in the armed forces—and millions at home who need assistance. Chairman O'Connor pointed out that during 1946-47 the Red Croas expects to handle 1.750,000 ex-serv­ ice cases and that there were still 53,000 Red Cross workers abroad rendering services to 1,500.500 men overseas. William J. Norton, executive vice president of the Michigan Children'» fund, talked to the convention on community needs, declaring that ■'vicious and annoying whispering campaigns about the Red Crow were bound to appear. . . We have to face the fact that the honeymoon between the Red Cross and the total population is ended." Norton ex­ plained that more than half of the expenses of the Red Cross was for home services. During the conclave special trib­ ute was paid to tile 20.000.000 boys and girls In the Junior Red Cross who made 40,000.000 comfort and recreational articles for the armed forces and provided medical supplies for three million European children in addition to many other activities. Delegates to the convention were instructed to assist all veterans who require aid and "to neglect none." Mrs. Jones reports. "Financial as­ sistance should be given if st nil possible." The convention was in­ formed that last year 4,500.000 serv­ ice men and their families were aid­ ed by the organization. Since 1939. the American Red Cross has spent more Ilian »17O.OOO,000 to aid victims of war. Philip p. Ryan, nation director of civilian Relief overseas, reported In addi­ tion. 34.000,000 new garments were produced and distributed to home­ less people abroad. Before the war the annual roll call produced about $8,000,000 Last year's fund campaign was $235,000.­ 000 and this year's S117.000JXK). Mrs. Jones also reported that the Red Cross now has on hand for free distribution to hospitals enough blood plasma to last two years as ovpr a million packages have been declared surplus by the services Mrs. Jones announced that, In volunteer hospital work, symptoms ot peacetime lethargy are already apparent and that the Red Cross U beginning to be handicapped by lack of volunteer personnel.

Pettigrove warns that If beans are late, they should not be allowed to get a hard frost while still grow­ ing in the held. Pulling and atackuig bean plants before frost will result in a nice white bean, even though the pods may be green when pulled. If the beans are fully developed there will be no shrinking of the crop. Farmers should give close atten­ tion to their bean crop for the un­ usual condition caused by the drought may produce problems that will require advice from the county agricultural agent.

In that country the beetles have natural enemies which prevent their doing much damage. Hero they have no natural enemies, and attempts to control them by importing their enemies have not been very success­ ful. In New jersey where they first started In this country they have been terribly destructive, also in adjoining areas in New York. Penn­ sylvania and Delaware. They have spread to other eastern states, also to Ohio. Automobiles and airplanes have brought them to other ports of the country. The state department of agricul­ ture Is doing a good Job tn fighting these pests. We should al) cooperate heartily. It we see any destructive work In gardens, shrubs or trees and do not know what caused It. an In­ vestigation should be made. If II seems probable that It may be lhe work of Japanese beetles, the state department should be notified promptly.

Peoche, Need Not Darken in Freezing Process, Expert Says If those peach slices you put away came dark, it was likely because you did not take the special precautions necessary to prevent discoloration. Dr. Roy E. Marshall, research specialist in the department of hor­ ticulture at Michigan State college, says certain enzymes cause discol­ oration and these must be killed or their action stopped by simple but necessary treatment. The most satisfactory method of preventing darkening of peach slices for fruit going into lockers is the use. of crystalline ascorbic acid in the sirup. This is available from drug stores and also from many of the commercial locker plants .­ Preparation Method. . Dr. Marshall suggests the follow­ ing method of preparation ■ Peaches may be peeled by scald­ ing. followed by immersion in cold water and then removing the peel. The peaches are then pitted and sliced. If lhe fruit Is to be packed In a 35 per cent sirup, each gallon of sirup would be made from 3 quarts of water. 7 cups of sugar, and teaspoons of crystalline ascorbic acid, lhe temperature should not exceed 125 degrees and stirring should not result In excessive agita­ tion. Higher heat would cause loss of ascorbic add through oxidation After the sugar and ascorbic acid are thoroughly dissolved, the sirup should be cooled. It may then be added to the peach slices in the freezing cartons until the level of the sirup is above that of the slices. Care should be taken to prevent any portion of the slices from protrud­ ing above the sirup. Use approxi­ mately one port of sirup to 3 parts of peaches by weight. The packaged fruit 13 then ready for freezing and storage. The strongest and most ferociouslooking lions are the’ones that are One place where a tourist Is al­ I least likely to hurt you.

PENDER Dairy fanners should avoid feed­ ing corn fodder which ha* been treated with DDT to milk-produc­ ing cows. Samples of com fodder, sprayed or dusted with DDT for cortf borer control, have been analyzed by the agricultural chemistry department ol Michigan Blate college. They were found to contain DDT tn amounts varying from 3.7 to 38.6 parts per million While this seems like a small amount of DDT. chemists feel It is enough to contaminate milk if the fodder is given to dairy ani­ mals. A legal tolerance of 7 parts per million has been established tor apples and pear* marketed.

Saginaw bay frontage and Pointe Mculllee and Erie state game area maps will be useful to waterfowl hunters, and pheasant and rabbit hunter* can obtain maps of Dans­ ville state game area. Ingham coun- Clair counly. Deford and Vassar state game areas. Tuscola county. Lapeer state game .area. Lapeer county and Flat River state game area. Ionia and Montcalm counties. All state-owned lands, with the exception of a few sanctuaries and safety zones near buildings, are open to hunting, and the older ureas like Rose Lake. Swan Creek. Tuscola, Gratiot-Saginaw and Bar­ ry county areas are already well known. Eleven southeastern Mich­ igan state recreation areas and Waterloo and Yankee Springs also offer extensive acreage. Hunting is controlled (that is. the hunter must register at head­ quarters and obtain a ticket each day) only on a part of Pointe Mouillce marsh and at Swan Creek and Rose Lake At all other areas, hunters need only remember to stay within the posted boundaries of lhe slate-owned land.

Five cents a pound will be paid enterprising boys and othe: woods residents who bring the cones in good condition to district for­ esters at nine northern peninsula collection points, and northern lower Michigan district foresters are PERSONALS crop Is more widely scattered. Color and specific gravity show cone maturity. Ripe white pine cones are yellowish green with brown scale tipa and when freshly picked oil. Ripe red pine cones are deep purple with brown scale tipa and three out ot five of them will float in kerosene. Cones collected should be delivered promptly and kept from heating (and so spoiling or opening) by being spread out. .rather than piled in heaps. No attempt should be made to remove the seed. Fall shipments of planting stock from the state's pine nursery have been limited, in the current short­ age. to 4.000 per order and to 1.500 of any one species.

It wm in his office in Prairieville village, soon after he located there. He waa then seemingly frail, very pale, almoat anemic. You would never have dreamed, then that he would drive more miles and average more houra per day in the practice of hit pro­ fession than any other doctor in the county's history.

But if you had seen him a few years afterward, you would not have thought he could ever have been a pale, anemic youngster when he started his prac­ tice in southwestern Barry county.

I should say. now has a new name. Il Is called the Office of Price Ascension. Conversation is not the some around here since the boys all re­ turned from the wars. For instance, tf someone mentions n good show, one son will speak up and say. "Oh. I saw that In Tallahassee" The next one will say. "You did? I saw it In St. Louis." The third son will put tn his two cent*' worth with. "I saw It in Los Angeles." or maybe Corpus Christi. Quite a far cry from the days of us grown-ups' childhood when It took the tram two solid hours to go to HMtlngs and two more hours to return home at night I think I like this new world much better. Teenage Twerps—This is just for the fem department Girls! Your brothers went away to fight a hide­ ous and brutal war. When they came marching home, what did they find? They found their shirts and pants Rolng down the street with you in them. They couldn't buy any shirts and their sisters were wearing theirs nicy couldn't gel any Jean* because the cloth had all gone Into jeans for the Rlrls. Now. my lovely bobby­ sox brigade, is this right or fair? Would you like to have the situa­ tion reversed on you? Besides which you nre sweet enough to eat In ruffles and frills but in your brothers' shirts and pants, you look like .something the cat dragged up The Sugar Stamp situation Is strictly SNAFU. A week ago Wed­ nesday. It said on the "raddlo" that the next stamp wasn't due until October Ut. The dally paper gave out with this choice tidbit. "House­ wives had another sugar stamp available Tuesday which became valid Sunday.” We now have three dates. Senator Byrd, the biggest apple grower In this country, has tried his beat to get more canning sugar for housefraua. Ble*s his heart. When the women can't get sugar, fruit growers, including Senator Byrd, are left holding the bag. the bag in this case being full of spoiled fruit. Michigan fruit growers are hopping mad over an article in a trade paper stating that our govern­ ment had ordered the shipment of 12.000,000 pounds of sugar to Yugo­ slavia. This is to give lhe Slavs energy to shoot down more of our airmen, no doubt. I'd like to go over to the Lake Shore and hop in sym­ pathy with the fruit growers All day I've been thinking of the term "knat-braln" In connection with the government agency who ordered this shipment of sugar to Yugoslavia, but it izn't lady-like to call people such names so I will concentrate on trying to keep from blowing a fuse. Did I spill an infinitive back, there? Lay it on to Washington. Something nice—The wave of spontaneous and warm-hearted laughter that always greets any mention of Betty MacDonald's best seller, "The Egg and I." Her de­ lightful sense of humor hu given joy to countless millions, and she has proven to all disillusioned writ­ ers that one can hit the beat aeller list and keep It clean. Blessings on her.

Chicken or­ ders are being taken. PLEASE buy meat on a day to day basis . . . what you actually need for your doily meals. This cooperation will help us in our effort to make meat available from day to day. There will be a little meat on hand Friday afternoon. The supply for Saturday will be very limited.

Over 260 young men and women— Including the Eaton Rapids crowd and many Hastings High alumni who are heading back to college— danced to the music of Bud Wolfe and his orchestra from 10 to mid­ night. Refreshments were served. The next session is billed as a Vic­ tory Dance—to.be held following the Grand Ledge football game here on October 4. The affairs are held al the Parish house and arc sponsored by the local Youth Council and HiMrs. Elmer Lagassee of Battle Creek, was a guest of Mrs. C- W. Culver Thursday of last week. of lhe field for a lest patch, and went to work. They first applied two tons of lime to each acre. The first year, some of the ground was disked Until all the old sod was tom up and killed. Beginning In August, this took several disking* of two or three times each, for rains come along and help the dislodged rods re-establish themselves. Anoth­ er strip was plowed four Inches deep. One was tom up with rigid type cultivator. One was disked, then gone over with the field culllvafor. Ip each case, the plots were top­ dressed with 1,000 pounds of 20'; super-phosphate and 260 pounds of muriate cf potash per acre—applied with a grain drill before the last tillage—and allowed to lie over win­ ter before seeding in the spring. . Varied a IJUle The second year’s tilling technique varied a little from the first. The experimenters substituted a heavy orchard disk for lhe regular field disk, which had proved rather light for the sod-cutting job. And they used it right after a rain, when the sod was not so tough. These tricks cut disking In half. The rigid field cultivator tended to roll the sod up. so a flexible, spring-toothed model was tried, with much better results. This year. too. they again tried shallow plowing, and added a few new treatments— including the disk plow, the sub­ surface sweep followed with the disk, and closely clipped plots to duplicate heavy grazing. Final tillage experiments came the third year, when the cutaway. disk, or bush and bog harrow, came Into play. This Is a heavy-duty disk, with lhe blades themselves notched much the same as cutaway rolling coulters. The disk is loaded heavily with rocks, and tiie cutaway feature make.-, it dig much more aggressively than a regular or orchard disk.

County Agent Harold Foster was referring to poultry when he made that admonition last week in urging Barry’s chicken raisers to market the culls and feed their pullets bet­ ter. "Feed Is not getting more plenti­ ful or less expensive, and winter ts no time to keep non-producing hens.” Foster said. "And that ap­ plies to all raisers—whrUter they have only a dozen hens to produce eggs for personal use. or have a commercial flock of several hun­ dred hens. It docs not pay to keep boarders." Foater also said that when-new grain Is harvested. It should be fed to poultry gradually to avoid up­ setting the birds. Give a small amount of lhe new grain with grain that is being fed. Watch the birds and if no digestive or other trouble shows up. gradually increase the new grain. Ftoater states that many flock owners find it difficult to tell a good hen from a poor one—or a producer from a non-producer He offers this advice: C<unb—Is large, bright red and glossy in a producer Is dull. dry. shriveled and scaly In a non-layer Face—Is bright red tn a layer but has a yellow tint in a "boarder" Vent—Is enlarged, smooth and moist In a producer Is puckered and dry In a non-layer. Public Bones—Are thin, pliable •nd well spread in a layer but are blunt, rigid and close together in a non-producer. Abdomen—Is expanded, soft and pliable in laying hens. In non-layers it Is contracted. hard and fleshy Skin—Is soft and loose In a good layer but te thick and underlaid with fat in a "boarder."

Rowley, who has only partial vi­ sion and Who demonstrated that he can read Braille rapidly, traced the development of aids to the blind and said that no outstanding progress had been made until 1834, In that year. Louis Braille, a pn> fr-ssor In Paris. developed the Braille system of using a combination of six raised dots to make It poeslblg for the blind to read. Braille alto de­ veloped the "slate" and itylus. used In the "writing” of Braille. Loaned Talking Books’ Explaining why printed letters were not merely "ndsed" for the blind to read by the touch system. Rowley said that system proved too cumbersome. "Each nation developed its own kind of ’Braille.’ Rowley ex­ plained. and there was much bick­ ering as to which system was the best until the London conference In 1931 decided that the international Braille code would be adapted from the Englhh system. He said this was done while he was a student at lhe Michigan School for the Blind nt Lansing, and that day they "toased the old books out the window." He explained that the Slate's school had been pro­ gressive enough to use the English Braille system along with lhe Amer­ ican so that the "reconversion” was not too drastic for the Michigan students. The next big advancement for the blind In thU country was the devel­ opment of the "talking book.” "Talk­ ing books are merely glorified phon­ ographs.” Rowley aald. He demon­ strated one of the machines, explain­ ing that one side of a record takes 15 minutes U> play off The machines • re loaned "for life" to the blind by the Library of Congre**. which has Its Michigan branch at Saginaw Rowley- explained that there arc probably- 5.000 machines out In the State but that there Is a long wait­ ing list for more No machines have been produced since before the war. There Is no cost to the blind for them, nor for the "books " The blind do not want for good literature. Rowley told his listeners The complete Bible is available—in over 100 records—as well as many national publications and "beat sell­ ers." There is no charge for the service There are 63 possible dot combina­ tions available In Braille, making It possible for a blind reader—know­ Ing many contractions—to read faster than an average "sight" reader, Rowley explained Without the contractions, books for the blind would be over five Hines their pres­ ent large size The Rotary-Klwante Joint meeting was a "pay-off" affair. The Rota­ rians were treating the K Iranians to luncheon, having lost the Inter­ club golf match by a 41-34 score To be an annual event, a "Jug" was presented the "young" men by the Rotary—to be held until the Rotary takes revenge next year. Rowley was the instructor for the Braille class of two students who recently "graduated" ut ceremonies at Nashville. The students who com­ pleted the course were Mrs. William Wallace and Harry Laurent, both of Nashville.

Fiff Divert 100 Million Instead 60 to Education By GENE ALLMAN Hottest Issue in the forthcoming election campaign Is proposal No. 2. the sales tax diversion amendment Mo the state constitution. If this amendment is adopted by voters on Nov. 5. Michigan public schools will receive approximately I100.000.0CO a year In state money. They now get *60.000.000. The Michigan Education Associa­ tion has done a neat flipflop on the question. Originally officials coct- tian's governing board went on rec­ ord as favoring IL A vigorous camvoters. This proposal is the outcome of le*Ulatlve demands made by mayors of Michigan's leading cltlw for a split of the Michigan sales tax. When upstate legislators united In resisting the big city municipalities, strategists decided that other inter­ ests must be incorporated Into the plan. A coalition would break the upsute ranks. Hence initiatory' petitions were circulated in leading cities, calling for the submission to the voters oh November 5 of the following amend­ ment to article ten of the Constitu­ tion: "Shall one cent of a levy on each dollar of tales under a state sales to cities, villages, townships and school districts; half apportioned per captta-amonK cities, villages and townships according to county popu­ lations. and half apportioned to mary school census: and in addi­ tion annual grants be made school districts from general funds in ratio to sales tax revenue of preceding fiscal years but not less than that borne between such grants In fiscal year ending 1946 and the preceding The amendment would divert onethird of the present tax. or one cent, to the following local governments: One-half of one cent, or 16*i per cent of the present 3-cent tax. would be returned to cities, villages and townships on a per capita basis according to county populations. would be distributed to public school districts on basis of the primary school census whereby every child. & to 19 years old. U counted. fiscal year ending 1946 and the pre­ COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS ceding year's Much revenue." This phraseology would do Justice to a Philadelphia lawyer, so we made an inquiry at the state department of public instruction as to what it actually meant. ance of slate aid to public-schools, as computed for the years 1945 and 1946. would ba equivalent to 43‘k per cent of the sales tax revenue. The new tax diversion. 18S per cent, plus the qualifying clause, would freete into the state constitution for use of the schools a total amount equal to approximately 60 per cent of sales tax revenue. For years the Michigan Education association has conducted biennial campaigns among legislators for more state aid. Pleadings have been effective, for schools are close to lhe hearts of the American people and lhe need for more funds has not been hard to pfove. If proposal No. 2 is carried on Nov. 6. the MEA lobbying will be over. The state constitution will guarantee, for years to come, a sub­ stantially higher proportion of state aid than the schools have ever re­ ceived. Between now and November 5 the voters will have to make up their minds about several things. One is whether the school should have more money. Here we believe tlie MEA will be on firm ground. Allen Shoenfield. one of the best writers of the Detroit News, recently made a detailed study of the Michi­ gan school problem. The MEA liked it so well that they obtained per­ mission to reproduce the series of ten articles in a booklet which has been given wide circulation. After interviewing scores of Michi­ gan educators. Shoenfield came to the conclusion that public education was facing "complete collapse." Teachers are underpaid: quality of teaching staff has been deteriorat­ ing. The 15-mill tax limitation amendment, added to the constitu­ tion in 1932. has become a strait­ jacket. Modem school buildings are imperatively needed.

S« compnnv �THE HASTINGS BANNER, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3. 1»18 FACE BTX FARMING, OUTDOOR WORK IMPORTANT AT STATE PRISONS A certain amount of work is nec­ essary In order to maintain physical ■nd mental stability of both normal and abnormal per.tons. One of the largeat problem* in operating the Blate Institutions Is to provide suf­ ficient employment for their pa­ tients and Inmate*, say* Charles Frequentl,v there are uprisings and riots in peltsI institution*. This U generally ca used by lack of con­ structive work. Michigan ha* been fortunate Ira this respect and has called uprisings, according to Flgy. Official* chanted with the operation of these instfiutlons agree that, the more idleness among patients ln\our hospital* and the inmates ofJ our prisons, the more trouble they will have in the a<Unlnlsiratlon of these institutions. Divrnifted Activities The majority of the people con­ fined In thP inrgitutlons crave and love the outdoont The many diversi­ fied activities <sn the institution farm* enable a man to select the kind of farm wotk he likes. He has the opportunity cd working with a fine dairy herd, a poultry flock. the Leonard chapel, the Rev. L Winston Stone officiating helping tn the cultivating and har­ vesting of farm and garden cropr lhe women patients are intcre»tcd in truck garden work »uch as oicklng berries, tending and har­ vesting ot peas, string beans. Uxnstoes. and doien* of other vegetable crops. Others are interested in work­ ing In the large orchard* maintained at most of our Institutions, picking spplea. cherries, peaches, plum*, etc. Consequently, by Intelligent super­ vision and by close cooperation of institutional psychiatrists and farm manager*, all the activities of these farm* can have a direct influence on the rehabilitation of patients to a point where their mental thinking Is so adjusud they can be returned to their families and to a useful place in society. Thl* Is a factor which cannut be estimated tn dol­ lars and cents but has a value great"er than the one and a half million dollars worth of food produced an­ nually. of Holt: a ton. Clyde Kesler.

This provides a safe place for discarding smokes be­ fore entering the building. "No smoking" signs should be posted near the cans, and smoking In these buildings should be prohibited. Safety-type matches should be used andd kept tn metal, or other Incombustible containers. Children are fascinated by matches and must not be allowed access to them. On the farm, it Is especially im­ portant to put out all cigar and cigarette butts because sparrows and other birds have been known to start fires by carrying- these lighted fire­ brands into thefr nests In buildings. 5 ROOM HOUSE in Freeport on Main Street.

Picnic Before we had good roads in Michigan. the railroads often had recursions, usually to nsar-by daces, occasionally to points as far iway as Niagara Falls and Chlago. The round-trip rate was usuilly about the regulrr one-way fare. Xcaslonally the charge would be nuch leas than tint. Money was not plentiful then. Adages for a 10-hour day were, for :ommon labor about 11.25: for carKftitera and masons from <2 50 to 3.00. Wheat would sell for from 00 ents to El DO a bushel.

Once or twice during lhe sum­ mer months, on the Grand Rapids division of the Michigan Central, •n excursion train to Detroit would leave Grand Rapids early enough so as to get lo Detroit by noon. That would enable the excursionist to gel that night—which wasn't too bad. I recall such a trip when I witnessed a game between Chicago and De­ troit clubs.

What it meant to gel to Lake Michigan, and to spend an afternoon there can be Imagined; for no one would think of driving a team over the rough, sandy roads to that place. The day and one's strength would be nearly gone by the wearisome horse and buggy one­ way ride. Nothing to It. No one would then think of such a trip, which can now be made in an auto so easily and so delightfully. Visit Jackson Prison There were round trip excursions to Grand Ledge, over the Pere Mar­ quette and CK St S It was a real pleasure to make that trip. They even had excursions to Jack­ son—round trip from Hastings was II3J0* And Ihe adVertUcd specialty was thr opportunity to visit Jack­ son prison!! Can you Imagine folks taking a day off to get to such a place? But they-did. and seemed to enjoy the opportunity. Some of the excursions from Has­ tings were sponsored by local groups or organizations. The railroad gave them low rates, which allowed a good margin to the group which put on the excursion.' There Were others where no profit was gained by anyone. I doubt If the railroad played aven on some of them, such aa Sunday school pic­ nics. mast always at Cole's landing. Thomapple lake. When Barry county has so many nice lakes, where children can wade on the sandy bottom, or go In bath­ ing safely, one might wonder why a picnic was held at Thomapple lake, with its muddy bottom that would make wading or bathing dan­ gerous for the little folks. These nicer resort lakes then had no good roads leading to them, and no facil­ ities for amusing a big bunch of youngsters If they could get there.

All he had done lately was to dodge vari­ ous people who looked him over appraisingly, then smacked their lips said Little Red Riding Hood.

Are you a better plumber, printer, what they are doing, agree to it. The beginning of wisdom is calling things taxicab driver? Are you a better salesperson, a better manufacturer? Have by their right names. Our “economic system" is all our business activities. you any ambitions or ideals, any plans for yourself and your family/and 6AS0UNE The petroleum industry has reduced the price of good gasoline consistently since 1930. The actual price of gasoline today is 14c a gallon. What make* the price over 20c? Federal and State taxes levied directly upon you, the buyerl Did ''Government" bring gasoline down to 14c a gallon? Nol Business did It. Did Business slap taxes on gasoline to make the retail price over 20c a gallon? No! Government did it. When the people of this country realize just what it will mean to them when Government takes over all business activities, they will fight it tooth and nail. They will see their liberty and their freedom going down the drain, if the take-over is achieved. Every citizen must understand—and your children’ Tramp on them right now! You are not going anywhere but down when the "long fight” to put control of business in the hands of Government finally ends with business in the hands of Government. Then you will have the "collectivist state". It will collect—you will give upl tell others—what this means. That’s why, as a citizen, I am giving the ELECTRK CSMEMT. Consistently, throughout the country, the rate* for domestic and industrial power and light have been reduced. Hundred* of small com­ munities now enjoy rates as low as those of metropolitan district*. Did lhe Government do thia? No! Business did it. “take-over” plan the pitiless publicity it deserves. Like you, I am 100% for any proposal that is for the interest of the • people. Like you, I am 100% opposed to the proposal for Government control of our business system because that control will take away all the RAILROADS. During the first World War the Government took over th* railroad*. They were operated st a loos of $1,600,000,000 by Ike poliliciani! The people were taxed to pay the loss!—that waa “Government control." During World War II the railroads were not taken over by Government. The railroads did a far bigger job of moving men and material than in the first World War. They paid the Government $4,600,000,000 in taxes! Business management, not Government management did that! liberties that are the constitutional right of every citizen. Senator Byrd of Virginia sized up the situation exactly when he said: k ■ ' . ’ 't ■• “Tha people muit realise . . . this dictatorship is not a thins horn of war. it was concaivad ten years ago, when the New Dealers camo into office and stealthily tiptoed toward the abandonment ot government by the people . . . Under these war powers they have the authority to d° what they have always dreamed of—to take complete control of RADIOS. In 1920, radios were a luxury. When radios went into mass production, millions of people had far better radios for $26 than hand tailored production gave for $250. Did Government do this? Nol It was done by American Business. the fortunes and the conduct of every citixen.” AUTOMOBILES. In 1903, automobile* were luxuries. By 1933, 80% of the world'* car* were owned by Americana; the best car* in th* world at the lowest cost! Can we thank Government for this? No! A* lhe price of automobiles went down, Government raised the taxes! Today a thousand-dollar car carries $173.63 in taxes. Buxines* makes a better car at a lower price; the Government taxes it. This "long fight” for Government control was engineered behind the Iron curtain in Washington. It Was not a "long fight” in the open. The people were unaware of what was happening to their liberties. They were lulled into a false sense of security that all was well, and that superior minds would take care of everything. OTHER PRODUCTS. Between 1926 and 1941, vacuum cleaner prices dropped 19%; electric refrigerator* 54$;. electric irons 51%. Automobile tire mileage increased from 10,000 miles to 25,000 miles as the pries of tires dropped 25% or mor*. Five thousand refrigerator* were made in 1921. Almost 2,000,000 were made in 1983. The price dropped from over $500 to less than $100 per unit. In 1900, the telephone was a luxury. Now, 60% of the world's telephones are in America. Our telephone cost is the world's lowest for the world's finest service! The present plan to take over all business, the system by which all our wealth has been created, involves you and every citizen of this republic. Everything you own in the way of property and all savings you have made by your own efforts will be taken from you. “Having ones captured the Government and shelved the Supremo Court, wo would nationalise as many largo industries as we could chow. We would do It peacefully if possible, and otherwise if necessary.** from 1932 to 1910, our National income teat 9536,500,000,000! plants, publishing businesses, life insurance companies, real estate, stocks, bonds,'and mortgages. All business is now earmarked for complete control Thie it the common wealth created by our butinett eyeteme—lhe profit and lo** competitive tyttem. In that system, there are plenty of losses taken— but never collected by "law”, from the taxpayer*. by Government. This will set up an entirely new type of management — . American Business must state its case and state it now. No man's judgment is better than his information. The American people want information. Already they show evidence of being aware that those they once trusted implicitly have tried to fool them unmercifully. The American people can do anything, if you will only tell them why. But they must be told. The best brains of America should plan a forthright nationwide effort at straight-from-the-shoulder education. The businessmen of our country should stand up and be heard from. The labor leaders of our country should stand up and be counted. Their opinion should be expressed open;*. Liberty, in the land that gave it birth, cries for defenders! We have dis­ regarded the wisdom of Lincoln and Wilson. Lincoln said: "Eternal vigilance is the price of Liberty.” Wilson said: “The history of liberty is the history of limitation upon the powers of Government.” Everybody has a stake in this vital question: Can politicians and bureau­ crats, 75% of whom never created a pay check and most of whom never earned as much as they are now paid with yourincome tax money, run the transportation system of our country? Can they moke automobiles? Can they run tho electrical industry? Can they run the food industry? Remember how they tried to make an economy of scarcity—by killing little pigs and Did the Ae*e Deal do thief No! American Butinett did ill But American Butinett did eren more than thie. The take-over will include all the grocery stores, markets, ’manufacturing political management rather than know-how management. IT IS TWELVE O’CLOCK NOW IN AMERICA! It is now a race between education and catastrophe! \ ploughing under every third furrow? They really believe that plenty can be accomplished by waste. They attempted to do it by spending fifty billions of your dollars in the "days of experimentation.” Now they are power mad and want to spend everything in America—including every thing you have. The Government “take-dtfer” means that people knowing nothing what­ lo take over our Business System and run it? nothing whatever about distribution will be in charge of distribution. Everything you own as an individual will be taken away from you and The "long fight” to take over all Business is a wide-open family question. INCOME TAXES.

You did not elect them. They were "appointed.” And all of them These figure* and facts are all prewar—no figures given deal with the justifiable cost* of war—and victory. What did the "Government," which plana to take over all American Business, do with this twenty billions of dollar*—enough money to run the country for ten year*? Did they run the country for ten years on that money? No! They "borrowed" $30,000,000,000 more, created hundred* of new Government agencies, established scores of so-called "Govern­ ment Corporations,” set up subsidy programs, and hired millions of people to insure the vote and keep bureaucracy in power. solemnly swore to defend the Constitution and your liberties! How they abided by their oath and how they plan to sell you down the river is revealed above in their own words. The size of the prize—our business system —has not been appraised by many Americans. It is not to be evaluated in terms of what it is—plants, tools, machinery, equipment, artd buildings. Its true value lies in what it has done and what it can do under the direction «f men having the know­ Government paid subsidies of over four billion dollars to control the supply of food! You may well aak: Who got ths subsidy,money and why? Subsidies were paid to keep down the prices of meats, dairy products, and other foods— but you paid for them—perhaps more than you would have paid if prices had been established by ths law of supply and demand! What did an OPA Chief »ay about this? He said: “We are in the business of Interfering with ths law of supply and demand; there's no question about that.". There you have a shining example of Government management! how to produce. America, economically, is today the sum total of- what our business system has done. Here is an appraisal from outside America: . f*Th* U. S.has 6% of th* world** area and 7% of it* people, it ha* 60% of th* telephone*, 80% of the motor car*, 35% of th* world’* railroad*. It produce* 70% of th* world'* oil, 60% of wheat and cotton, 50% of copper and pig iron. 40% of coal and lead. It ha* eleven billion dollar* in gold, it has two-thlrd* of th* world'* banking resource*. Th* pur­ chasing power of its people is greater than that of all th* people of Europ* or all the people of Asia. Responsible leadership which cannot ( tran*lat* such a bulging economy into an assured prosperity is destitute of capacity. But pompous statesmen looking ov*r the estate ’ solemnly declare that th* method* by which it wa* created are all । wrong, ought to be abandoned, must b* discarded, and that th* time ha* com* to *ub*tltut* political management for individual initiative and supervision. There is Only on* way to characterise that proposal and that is a* Just damn foolishness.” IT IS TWELVE O’CLOCK IN AMERICA! Now what has Government done—the Government that proposes ever about production will be in charge of production and people knowing It boils right down to this: If you want your freedom, fight the "take-over.” But remember! Once we "socialize” this nation at an election, we cannot “de-socialize" it at the next. There won’t be any next election. Many heads of American Business are hesitant about spending out of profits for any kind of publicity other than advertising products or services. They are afraid the people who have money in the business would be opposed to advertising dealing with public questions. That is why you should write to the presidents of insurance companies in which you have policies, and to the heads of every business in which your moneys are invested, and tell them to do something about this great public question. Labor, too, should fight the "take-over" tooth and nail. When once it is accomplished, labor will have nothing more to say, and will do precisely what it is told to do. ’ • All the businessmen of America should, actually, "get together with but one purpose in mind—to practice the “eternal vigilance” needed to protect the liberties of the people and the freedom of enterprise that gives everyone n and woman in America a chance to go as high as their own ceiling. It is to be hoped and prayed that such a movement to exercise vigilance will spring into being. It will have but one client—the people of the nation. It will have but one Did business advocate this deficit financing? This destiny by debt? No' - Government did it! Was it in your interest?

It WM the editor of the London Sphere who made this appraisal. product to sell—the Constitution of our country and its Bill of Rights. Industrial management has too long overstressed the value of silence while others have been affecting public opinion. Whatever is right can be achieved through the irresistible power of awakened and informed opinion. We should not consider whether take over the system that has made this country great? a thing can be done, but whether it ought to be done.' If it ought to When and If Government Is the Center of Control of Business Activities, be done, we should exert the forces of publicity. Then public opinion It should have been made long ago by the leadership men of industry of Medicine, Law, Schools, Science, Church, and ALL the Private Activi­ will compel it to be done.

This expressed viewpoint is my own responsibility, and is in no way connected or identified with any group, organization, or company. Telling this story to the American people is a job that should ba done by our business sys­ tem itself. _What is $ald here is said in the hope that our business system will recognixo its responsibility and proceed at once to tell the people of the U.S.A., in a broad scale advertising program, just what this take-over means to tho people.

I BoaiUng* of "landings unlimited,'' 'Elwood Bachelder, operator-manag­ er of the HaaUng* Airpark gave local air and outdoor enthusiasts a tample of what they can expect from pri­ vate aeronautical development* when he demonstrated the new Sea­ Bee, an amphibious aircraft built by the Republic Aviation corporation. Taken for hops In the amphibian :by Pilot Bachelder. who has plenty of hours in the air both tn private . and military plane types, were local notables and Jut plain “Joes", who unanimously agreed that the SeaBet Is "really something.” Landa on Gun Lake Bachelder landed the ship, which is a four-place monoplane of all­ metal construction, on Gun and Thornapple iak-s. taking off from the gnus runways of the Airpark. Every boast made by its rnanuffacturers appeared to be an under statement, os Bachelder brought the ship In and took off almost cross wind from Gun's relatively rough water. As a sports model. It had everything but a cigarette lighter 'and can back up on water by simply 'reversing the prop—an especially at­ tractive feature for local nlmrods ‘who dream of flying to otherwise in■accessible waters for weekend fish­ ing. j The craft has a wing span of, 31 i feet. 8 inches and is 28 feet long. । It has retractable landing gear and its loaded draft is % mere 18 Inches I Its gross weight, with pilot and three passengers.

I It was the general opinion that the publicity put out by Republic, stating that the sporUman can now go -where the Mallards fly or be among | 'em when the trout season opens" is true with tlic new ship—which ap­ pears to be "everybody's airplane."

Stem relates, the fundtime, the company cooperated with two other concerns—The Hatting. Tabic company and the Barber Brothers Chair company—to turn out correlated suites, as the Grand Rapids Bookcase A- Chair company was then making only cut goods. "Then, design leaned somewhat to the Queen Anne type." Stem say*, "although It could certainly never be called authentic. The tables had massive carved dividing bases with ovcrcarved curved pedestal legs. Ths chinas and buffets made use of glass lavishly. The chain were the best of the lot. and more closely follow the lines of the fine reproductions of today."- In the same catalogue were shown some pieces resembling Mis­ sion. though net so labeled. •It was evidently around 1908. when the company seriously went into the manufacture of Mission furniture," Stem continues. "Thi was characterized by ita simplicity and heaviness of line. One thing could certainly be said of It—It wai sturdy; but It would scarcely fit into today's scheme Wllving." But note that her<( was an Intro­ duction cf simplicity which, even though attended by heaviness, took a step towards the nrltotlc propor­ tions of today's Oakinasters. About 1910, during World War I. the price of oak lumber scared to around _»300 per 'thousand. *’TM» was enough to -convince cur com­ pany, along with many other com­ panies, that we should drop Mis­ sion and Icok for something else to manufacture." explains Stem. So. for a few years, they made furniture of walnut (which costs about B50 per thousand) and tlie glory of Mis­ sion began to fade. Not until 1925 did the price of oak resume normal proportions. At that time, he says, there was no oak I furniture on the market, and thk. very first group they produced—an Elizabethan dining room suite re- : tailing around 11,000—waa an in- , itant success. Without delay, the company ax-.j tended Ito oak lines to Include UvIng-roOm and bedroom furniture In authentic Tudor, Elizabethan. Goth­ ic and Charles II designs "covering around 200 years in the history of English furniture." as Stem sums it up. These designs marched in tlie van­ guard of a trend towards oak furni­ ture which lasted for several years. It spread ah over the country and lest Impetus only when cheaper manufacturers began turning It out In gaudy versions which nude period o»k no longer desirable. , 'Thus was the stage opportunely: set) for the introduction of the clean new lines tracing Swedish Influence.

The reason we can't in this area is because we haven’t enough central office equipment and outside wire and cable lo go around. We've ordered what we need to take rare of those wailing for telephones, but lhe manu­ facture of some of it has been curtailed by material shortages. Beside*, this apparatus requires thousands of hours of hand work to build and to install. a We're installing telephones for as many MICHIGAN BELL waiting applicants as we ran—by loading our present equipment to thc limit. If you arc waiting for a telephone, you can be sure your order will lie filled in its proper turn just as toon as possible. Meanwhile, our facilities are serving more telephones and handling more calls than ever before, which means that service for every­ one may not always be as good as we want it to be.

It requires ax mor* complex system of managemant and, i often, more widespread ownership. Aills-Chalmers has grown and progressed for 99 years. Just who is Mr. A-C? Because the answer to a question like that Is complex. It Is easyfor people to pick up mistaken Impressions. For the sake of the record, let's take Mr. A-C apart and see who he really is. WHO IS LABOR? WHO IS CAPITAL? Allis-Chalmers. “Capital” consists of 23.100 stockholders who own an ' \ | L \ average of less than 110 shares each. ' Mr. Capital might be a grocer, a farmer, a widow, a school teacher. :/ \>| 7 I or YOU. He might be a company employee in the office or shop or an officer of thc company. No one individual or family owns more lhan ’/» of I percent of lhe total slock of Allis- Chalmers. Thit is on example of democratic ownership distinctive in lhe history of forge corporations. WHO IS MANAGEMENT? t Management is the guiding hand (or head) hired by the owners to make an organization tick — and click! Who is Mr. Management at Allis-ChaiDters? Not just the officers and division heads of thc company. Management is the block man­ ager in the territory, the foreman in the shop. Management ft avgry employee from errand boy lo protldent who contribute* by word and dead to tho progress of the company. Mr. Management doesn't wear a high wing collar at Allis-Chalmers. Neither does he have any monopoly on his job. ; The man who works in the shop Capital doesn’t wear a silk hat at ' flUIS-CHALMERS A>’' is spoken of in the newspaper as ( ' ; “labor." . h J>-y' Actually he may be a part of y Management by reason of some W suggestion he has made to improve a process or a product. f Actually he may be a part of Capital through ownership of company stock. The fact that he works with his hands makes him no less a part of Allis-Chalmers than the man or woman who works at a desk. Thc terms "Capital.” "Management," and "Labor" are indefinite and overlapping. Many a man who works in the shop is actu­ ally a part of all three groups. ' ‘ ' ’ _Who then is Mr. A-C?

A Irifc eepy Hastings Manufacturing Company Hastings Michigan �PAGE EIGHT CONSTITUTION NOW CLUTTERED, SHOULD BE REVISED-FORD Director of U. of M.'i Bureau of Government Recommends Revision to Eliminate Restrictions Passage of the amendment pro­ viding for a split of the Mies tax serves to emphasise the. need for a complete revision cf the State Con­ st It utlon. Robert 8. Ford, director of the University of Michigan Bureau cf Government, believes The Constitution is now cluttered with detailed financial provisions that should be covered only by leg­ islation." Ford declares, "and the new movement for an amendment to exempt food from the Mies tax in­ dicates that tlie end has not yet been reached " In an article prepared for publi­ cation in the Bulletin of the Na­ tional Tax Association. Ford cites the following restrictions now im­ posed by the State Constitution! Controls Revenues A graduated income tax and classified property tax arc prohi­ bited. An upper limit of 15 mills on the property tax rate ts estab!Idled U*e of the proceeds of the auto­ mobile weight and gasoline taxes for anv purpose uth?: Ilian highway! b prohibited. Diversion cf about 75 per cent of the sales tax collections to local units of government is authorized. An excise tax on sale* uf liquor is authorized The Legislature Is directed to ap­ propriate not less than cne per cent cf the aggregate annual payroll of the state service in the preceding year for the Civil Servlcy cotnmisrion. Thus control of the revenue sys­ tem and of appropriations has been removed to a considerable extent from the Legislature." Ford con­ cludes "Not much financial respon­ sibility U left with the LcgbJaturc other than to go through the forreality of approving budget* or financial measures prescribed by the Constitution "While the sale* tax aplit is novel it carries the process of legislating through the Constitution to an ex­ treme degree that may possibly re­ veal to citizens the need fur re­ examining first principles af govern­ ment and returning to the Legisla­ ture those financial powers which are so necessary fur establishing a proper balance between the various activities of government."

LOW COST BE PREPARED FOR THE COMING WINTER WEATHER , The KEY to Contour Farming U.S. Soil Conservation reports indicate a jsational average yield increase of 11 per cent for contour-cultivated corn. Significant increases also are reported for other crops. Allis-Chalmers FRONT-MOUNTED Implements with DUAL DEPTH CONTROL make contouring a real possibility for the average farm. A planter and cultivator mounted ahead of tha driver’s seat make it easy to follow a curved row. Saad and fertiliser can be placed at precise depth, ta contour rows that catch and hold moisture on the slope. Rotary hoe cultivator attach­ ments roll directly over the row. lifting out weeds. These are methooa -recognised aa setting a major new trend in agri­ culture. Allia-Chchners "looks ahead" to better living for every family farm.

Like the labor-saving caravan early this year, the 1947 caravan will large trucks with trailers. It will be unloaded for one-day stands and then move on to another county late in the evening. George Amundson, chairman of the caravan committee, pointe out that the caravan nbw under produc­ tion will feature remodeling and building °f homes and farm build­ ings. While materials are still scarce and labor is high, the extension en­ gineer at MBC says planning such work should come well ahead of actual building.

It is there that liberty of conscience and rec­ ognition of the dignity of man find their first roots. It is there that the men and women of good will, dele­ gates of the fifty-four United Na­ tions, will find their inspiration." —Bishop O. Bromley Oxnam.

CLEANLINESS NO. 1 ESSENTIAL FOR TOP TOURIST BUSINESS Cleanliness Is essential to success In the tourist and retort business according to C. A. Gunn, tourist and resort specialist at Michigan State college. The agricultural engineer says forethought in selection ot materials used in construction will reduce the amount of work required to keep cabins and cottages clean. Apply Plenty of Pahl The use of Inlaid linoleum, lino­ leum Ule or asphalt tile as floor materials In the living quarters, makes cleaning an easier task. The maintenance of concrete floors can be made easier by applying a rub­ ber base paint or cementing asphalt Ule directly on lhe surface, pro­ vided the concrete is absolutely dry Frequent waxing and huffing will prolong the life of the floor and make cleaning easier. Smooth surface on walla and ceil­ ings makes for easier maintenance. Gunn aays that rough textured plaster, unfinished wood or Insula­ tion board are hard to keep clean. Smooth plastered surfaces, natural flnlsncd plywood or paneling or in­ terior paneling wallboard are mors easily maintained. Desirable flair materials in fealhrooms are leraxzo, ceramic Ule and quarry tile. Concrete U accepted but cleanliness is not as certain as with the other materials. Easily cleaned bathroom wall materials are ceramic tile or glared tile building blocks.

Burton &amp; Co. were listed as the proprietors of the "Republican Banner", which first appeared here on May 1, 1856, with Dr. C. S. Burton as the publisher and Norman Bailey as editor.<br /><br />Publication office was on the second floor of the Rower Block, whose address was given as "corner of State and Church"; which corner was not specified.<br /><br />The objective of this publication was to win support for the newly created Republican party and thus counteract the influence of the Barry County Pioneer, a Democratic journal that had been published here since 1851. No copies of the first three issues of The Banner were saved.<br /><br />Make-up on the first journal corresponded with a pattern typical of most local journals then published. Page one contained a few columns of advertising, fiction (often a continued story), and a short feature of no particular news value. Page one was the "literary" page.<br /><br />Page two contained the editorial barbs, along with state news, political articles, Washington items and news of the national and territorial giovernments. Page three contained a few items of local news, sandwiched inbetween the local and foreign news.<br /><br />Page four was usually solid with advertising and as such was the editor's "bread and butter" page....Locally it was the pattern until the early 1880s.<br /><br />Several changes in ownership and management occurred during the first two years of publication, with J. M. Nevins taking over ownership interests on July 16, 1857. With the issue of May 7, 1862, "The Republican Banner" became "The Hastings Banner". Editor Nevins thought the village had developed sufficiently during the past several years to merit this recognition.<br /><br />Another major change in the management of The Banner came when Nevins sold the newspaper to George M. Dewey of Niles on March 14, 1866, who then took over as editor and publisher. Dewey, an ardent Republican and somewhat of a crusader, gave considerable space to editorial comment and party affairs and also directed pointed paragraphs against the saloons and local traffic in liquor. Dewey was the grandfather of Thomas E. Dewey, Republican presidential nominee in 1944 and 1948. Editor Dewey on May 4, 1870 changed the format (and name) of the paper to "Hastings Republican Banner". <br /><br />A fire in December 1883 burned The Banner plant (located in the middle of the block on the north side of State St. across from the courthouse). Files and back issues from August 1880 to December 1883 and the January 4, 1884 issues are missing.<br /><br />The Banner was purchased by Marshall L. Cook and George Bower on July 21, 1880. They changed the name to "The Hastings Banner". M. L. Cook soon became the sole owner and remained so until July 7, 1887 when Albert Nishern (M. L.'s brother-in-law) joined him. Albert Nishern sold his interest on November 6, 1889 to William Cook (M. L.'s younger brother).<br /><br />The Cook brothers partnership held together (56 years) ... Richard Cook followed his father into the newspaper business, and Richard's son William joined him.
