Pirates Overcon<br />
Strong Chelsea<br />
<strong>Pinckney</strong> was massacred at<br />
Chelsea in the game with the Bull<br />
Dogs Friday night by a score <strong>of</strong><br />
54 to 0. <strong>Pinckney</strong> only made<br />
a couple <strong>of</strong> first downs and the<br />
game was played exclusively in<br />
<strong>Pinckney</strong> territory all the evening.<br />
<strong>Pinckney</strong> was never in scoring<br />
position.<br />
<strong>Pinckney</strong> did fairly well the<br />
first quarter holding Chelsea to<br />
7 points. This was a fluke. On<br />
fourth down a pass from the<br />
<strong>Pinckney</strong> center rolled past the<br />
punter to the 15 yard line and<br />
Chelsea scored from here on a<br />
line play by George Wilson. They<br />
made the extra point also on a<br />
line plunge.<br />
In the 2nd quarter Chelsea<br />
began to penetrate the <strong>Pinckney</strong><br />
line and scored 3 more touchdowns<br />
on line plays. They tried<br />
forward passing but were not very<br />
successful at it. <strong>Pinckney</strong> seldom<br />
got the ball and when they did<br />
could not gain. Williams was<br />
their biggest ground gainer. They<br />
completed several passes but only<br />
one was good for a sizable gain,<br />
making a first down.<br />
In the last half <strong>Pinckney</strong> failed<br />
to <strong>of</strong>fer much opposition tc<br />
Chelsea who scored almost at<br />
will. Several times they made<br />
first downs on one play through<br />
the <strong>Pinckney</strong> line. If they had<br />
stuck to line plays they might <strong>of</strong><br />
doubled the score but they switched<br />
to»passing at which they usually<br />
lost as they completed but<br />
few <strong>of</strong> them.<br />
Chelsea had fine blocking and<br />
tackling and a couple <strong>of</strong> good<br />
ball carriers who twisted and<br />
weaved some times through the<br />

Supremo Court Hands<br />
Down Important Ruling<br />
A far reaching ruling was affirmed<br />
last week by the United<br />
Stales Supreme Court when it affirmed<br />
a decision by an appeals<br />
court in a case in Carroll county,<br />
Mississippi. Robert Goldsby,<br />
a negro was convicted <strong>of</strong> murder<br />
there and appealed. The grounds<br />
for the appeal was that negroes<br />
were barred from jury duty there<br />
despite the fact that half <strong>of</strong> the<br />
county's population was negro.<br />
Not a single negro is registered to<br />
vote there. The court gave<br />
Carroll county 8 months to retry<br />
Goldsby before a regularly constituted<br />
jury drawn from a list <strong>of</strong><br />
eligibles which includes members<br />
<strong>of</strong> both races indiscriminately. If<br />
they fail to do this Goldsby must<br />
be set free. There are many<br />
southern counties where negroes<br />
in the south are not permitted to<br />
serve on jury. This means they<br />
will have to change their laws or<br />
set all negroes convicted by all<br />
white juries free.<br />
Procedure is somewhat different<br />
in this county. A few years<br />
ago some Detroit negroes were<br />
arrested at or near Howell for a<br />

m Notes ot<br />
25 Years Ago<br />
A big mast meeting was held<br />
at the Community Hall here Friday<br />
night to see if efforts could<br />
not be started to get M-36 blacktopped.<br />
<strong>Village</strong> Pres. Slayton called<br />
the meeting to order and asked<br />
Floyd Weeks to take charge.<br />
County Engineer Bill Slavin was<br />
the first speaker. He said he<br />
thought the chances <strong>of</strong> getting<br />
the road blacktopped were good<br />
u it was the only highway parreliing<br />
Grand River and a lot<br />
<strong>of</strong> work would be done under the<br />
2 year plan. John C. Nagel <strong>of</strong><br />
Buck Lake, former Detroit councilman<br />
was next. He also thought<br />
the chances <strong>of</strong> black topping<br />
were good as M-36 was only 2<br />
miles longer from Detroit to<br />
Lansing than Grand River. Lucius<br />
Wilson Sr. was next. He was<br />
also enthusiastic about it. Others<br />
called on were Walter Marshall,<br />
South Lyon president; Wray Hinckjey,<br />
Hamburg supervisor; Vern<br />
Topping, Plainfield; Lawrence<br />
McCleer, Elda Kuhn, Gregory;<br />
George Voight, Dansville pres.;<br />

South Lyon; Don Moran and<br />
Byron Driver, Rushton; Hunter<br />
Gallatian, Buck Lake; Thomas<br />
Howlett, Gregory. M. J. Reason<br />
made a motion to send a delegation<br />
to Lansing to see Highway<br />
Com. Murray Von Wagoner. It<br />
* was supported by Wm. Dilloway<br />
and carried. John Nagel was<br />
elected chairman, John Hamilton,<br />
Novi state representative, vice<br />
chairman and P. W. Curlett,<br />
Sec.-Treas.<br />
A good crowd attended the<br />

RAILROAD FEATHERBEDDING:<br />
'500,000,000 LOSS<br />
TO THE NATION-INCLUDING YOU-EVERY YEAR<br />
Featherbedding on the railroads — pay for work<br />
not done or not needed — is costing the American<br />
people the shocking total <strong>of</strong> more than<br />
$500,000,000 a year.<br />
You pay for it every time you shop, because<br />
featherbedding costs are hidden in the price <strong>of</strong><br />
everything you buy.<br />
Obsolete union work rules, involving the railroad<br />
operating employees, are responsible for this<br />
gigantic burden. Right now, for instance, these<br />
rules require every diesel locomotive to carry a<br />
fireman —even though diesels have no fires to<br />
stoke, no boilers to tend.<br />
The forthcoming negotiations between the railroads<br />
and the unions are urgently important to<br />
the whole nation.<br />
In asking the unions to drop these featherbedding<br />
rules, all the railroads ask for is a fair day's<br />
work for a fair day's pay.<br />

By MRS. MILDRED CHAPEL<br />
A CHILD'S PLAY<br />
Play can help a child learn to<br />
get along with people. This is<br />
because play leads him through<br />
the different steps in social contacts.<br />
A childs first social contact is<br />
with adults, and children in the<br />
play-pen set are still full <strong>of</strong> effcction<br />
for adults. They have not<br />
as yet developed a sympathy for<br />
other children just as they did<br />
their toys earlier.<br />
Because children under two do<br />
not usually play well together, it<br />
is best to interest each child in<br />
an activity that will not include<br />
another. A child around two<br />
feels that his toys are a part <strong>of</strong><br />
him and so is not willing to share<br />
them. He will <strong>of</strong>ten follow a favorite<br />
toy from one room to another,<br />
thus making him more<br />
manageable.<br />
"No", "don't", and "mine" are<br />
sound effects that <strong>of</strong>ten accompany<br />
the group play <strong>of</strong> children<br />
around two years <strong>of</strong> age. A child<br />
<strong>of</strong> this age is not yet a social being<br />
with his own age group.<br />
Because <strong>of</strong> this, an older child<br />
<strong>of</strong> perhaps five or six is a good<br />
first playmate for a two-year old.<br />
The smaller child is not so tempted<br />
to push or bit and older<br />
playmate. Then too, an older<br />
child is not so likely to take the<br />
two-year old's favorite toy away<br />
from him.<br />
Often, by the time a child<br />
reaches the age <strong>of</strong> three, he shows<br />
his readiness for social contacts.<br />
He begins to take an interest in<br />
the feelings <strong>of</strong> others. When<br />
mother has a headache, he is<br />
likely to say, "Poor momey,<br />
head hurts."<br />
His vocabulary has grown too.<br />
'. and he is able to carry on a conversation.<br />
The word "we" is<br />
now a part <strong>of</strong> his vocabulary and<br />
he is not afraid to share his toys.<br />
Aad because <strong>of</strong> a better develop-<br />
1<br />
ed time sense, a child around<br />
three is more willing to wait for<br />
a turn.<br />
An onlooker may be shocked<br />
. by the social crudities <strong>of</strong> many<br />
four-year-olds. Cliques may be<br />
formed and outsiders may be<br />
rudely excluded from the group.<br />
Clowning, bragging, and the "I'll<br />
go you one better" kind ot behavior<br />
is typical <strong>of</strong> the four year old<br />
silliness that <strong>of</strong>ten causes squabbling<br />
and hurt feelings.<br />
However, a new idea suggested<br />
by an adult can <strong>of</strong>ten avert<br />
the deterioration <strong>of</strong> play. For<br />
instance, if two tricycles collide.<br />
a quick suggestion that the children<br />
play hospital and treat the<br />
"wounded" can stop a series <strong>of</strong><br />
collisions because bumping looked<br />
like fun.<br />
Children around five years <strong>of</strong><br />
age can more easily distinguish<br />
between rnagic and reality. They<br />
want to know all about the world<br />
and their interest expand as fast<br />
as their experiences. These experiences<br />
may include excursions,<br />
books, seeing people at work,<br />
testing materials in new ways<br />
and helping adults.<br />
PROPS FOR PLAY<br />
During his preschool years, a<br />
child goes through several different<br />
phases <strong>of</strong> play. It is important<br />
that children have the<br />
right "props" or toys to enrich<br />
their play.<br />

A child around a year old, for<br />
example, is at the "take-out, putin"<br />
age. When he's in the kitchen<br />
with his mother, he loves to empty<br />
all the cupboards and wastebaskets<br />
he can reach. But instead,<br />
give him some pans <strong>of</strong> different<br />
sizes and let him fill them with<br />
small toys. Or give him clothespins<br />
and a bread pan and show<br />
him how to place the pins on the<br />
side <strong>of</strong> the pan and in the pan.<br />
CORDUROY GUIDES<br />
FOR HOME SEWING<br />
Corduroy is used widely in<br />
home sewing, but it is one fabris<br />
that gets a lot <strong>of</strong> abuse.<br />
Dorothy Erler, clothing specialist<br />
at Michigan State University,<br />
says people neglect special techniques<br />
in handling the fabric<br />
that could give garments a pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
look.<br />
Pile can run up or down-or<br />
around. But corduroy pile must<br />
all go in the same direction. If<br />
the pile runs up, the fabric has<br />
a richer appearance. If the pile<br />
runs down, the fabric has a shadowy<br />
effect. Garments usually<br />
show less wear if the pile runs<br />
down.<br />
For special effects, corduroy<br />
may be cut with the ribs placed<br />
horizontally. Rub your hand<br />
along the ribbing to determine<br />
the direction <strong>of</strong> the pile.<br />
A simple design with few<br />
seams is the best pattern choice<br />
for corduroy. The pattern envelope<br />
will indicate if the design<br />
is suitable for a pile fabric. Yardage<br />
is listed under "fabric with<br />
nap."<br />

Observations <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Michigan Political Scene<br />
By Paul W. Curie*<br />
Frank G. Norris who writes<br />
for the conservative Republicans<br />
<strong>of</strong> Michigan in a weekly letter<br />
called the Lansing Observer reports<br />
on the three day visit <strong>of</strong><br />
postmaster Arthur Summerfield<br />
to Michigan where he conferred<br />
with Republican leaders in Detroit.<br />
The two candidates discussed<br />
were State Senator Carlton<br />
Morris <strong>of</strong> Kalamazoo, leader<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Republican state senate<br />
for governor and Secretary <strong>of</strong><br />
the Army Wilbur Brucker for U.<br />
S. Senator; Paul Bagwell, Republican<br />
candidate for governor 2<br />
years ago was not present at the<br />
Summerfield meeting in the belief<br />
he would not be welcome.<br />
Summerfield who led the state<br />
to successive victories when he<br />
was national commit teem an is<br />
bitterly critical <strong>of</strong> the leadership<br />
<strong>of</strong> State Chairman Lindemer and<br />
national committeeman John<br />
Martin. He believes Lindemer,<br />
Martin and former chairman<br />
Feikens engineered the factionalism<br />
that have produced the de-<br />
, feats for Michigan Republicans<br />
in recent years. In 1944-46<br />
Michigan Republicans won all<br />
<strong>of</strong>fices in Michigan. In 1948 they<br />
Horsemen Will Recall<br />
the Great Flora Temple<br />
The Jackson Harness Raceway<br />
turned back the pages <strong>10</strong>0 years<br />
last week with a double feature<br />
commemorating Flora Temples<br />
world record performance on<br />
October 15, 1859 at Kalamazoo<br />
when she established a new<br />
worlds record and became the<br />
first thorobred to go the distance<br />
under 2:20. Flora Temple was<br />
13 years old then and was owned<br />
in the east. That was in the old<br />
days before ball bearing sulkies,<br />
wind breakers, etc. and I have<br />
been told by old timers who<br />
saw the horse race that with the<br />
modern inventions she cbuld have<br />
gone in 2 minutes. The president<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Jackson raceway. Leon<br />
Slavin lives in Kalamazoo.<br />
Flora Temple was giving exhibitions<br />
at the time. The item<br />
was <strong>of</strong> interest to me for I knew<br />
Flora Temples blacksmith. Great<br />
race horses <strong>of</strong> that day carried<br />
their own blacksmith with them.<br />
The man I knew was Henry M.<br />
Ide, who hailed from Geneva, N.<br />
Y. He over imbibed at Kalamazoo<br />
and lost his job. Coming to<br />
Dexter he started a blacksmith<br />
shop which he operated until<br />
shortly before his death. He was<br />
a well read man and could talk<br />
on most any subject. His favorite<br />
topic <strong>of</strong> course was Flora<br />
Temple.<br />
Here's how the average consumer<br />
dollar was spent last year,<br />
according to the Department <strong>of</strong><br />
Commerce: Housing 13 per cent;<br />
food, beverages and tobacco 29<br />
per cent; Clothing 8 per cent;<br />
household operation 6 per cent;<br />
furnishings and household equipment<br />
6 per cent; automobiles and<br />
parts, gas and oil, 9 per cent;<br />
transportation 3 per cent; miscellaneous<br />
26 per cent.<br />
only lost governor and m 1952<br />
when Summerfield became postmaster<br />
general they won 27 state<br />
<strong>of</strong>fices. Today there is not a<br />
Republican state <strong>of</strong>ficial or board<br />
or state commission man in Lansing,<br />
except the senate.<br />
Lt. Gov. John Swanson says<br />
from the period July 1, 1958 to<br />
June 30, <strong>1959</strong>, the number <strong>of</strong><br />
state employees in Michigan has<br />
decreased by 560. Non have<br />
been dismissed but vacancies<br />
when they occurred from death<br />
or retirement have not been filled.<br />
The state recently saved $70,<br />
000 by buying air force wool<br />
surplus material to provide clothing<br />
for mental patients, at <strong>10</strong><br />
cents a yard. Some <strong>of</strong> it will be<br />
sent to home economics dept, in<br />
schools for drapes and other articals.<br />
They also have bought addressograph<br />
machines to use in state<br />
hospitals and have cut the admission<br />
costs there by use <strong>of</strong> them<br />
from $7.52 a pupil to 29 cents<br />
each, a saving <strong>of</strong> $882.00 a<br />
month. They also cut plates for<br />
inventory forms cutting the time<br />
for making them out from 35<br />
days to 12 hours.<br />
BOARD OF HEALTH<br />
ihe Livingston County board<br />
<strong>of</strong> Supervisors in session last week<br />
refused to appropriate money for<br />
its share <strong>of</strong> the budget for the<br />
Shiawassee -Livingston County<br />
Health Dept. This was on motion<br />
<strong>of</strong> Dr. McGregor, representative<br />
from Brighton, supported by<br />
supervisor John Seim <strong>of</strong> Genoa.<br />
Seim said he feels the board <strong>of</strong><br />
health should be reorganized and<br />
that Livingston County is not<br />
getting their money's worth out<br />
<strong>of</strong> the dept. Livingston county's<br />
share <strong>of</strong> the budget would have<br />
been $29,000.<br />
Dr. A. B. Mitchell, director <strong>of</strong><br />
the health dept. said the cost to<br />
Livingston County <strong>of</strong> the health<br />
dept. was 73 cents per person.<br />
For this he said the people get<br />
a director shared with Shiawassee<br />
County, 2 visiting nurses, 1 full<br />
time sanitation inspector and a<br />
Clerk, a vision and hearing program<br />
plus a tuberculosis program,<br />
communicable disease program,<br />
food inspection, nursing home<br />
inspection, sanitation inspection<br />
in resort areas and trailer camps.<br />
Dr. Mitchell said if the county<br />
discontinues it they will have<br />
gone backward.<br />
The fly in the ointment seems<br />
to be the meat inspection part.<br />
The Livingston County board <strong>of</strong><br />
supervisors went on record against<br />
it and the board <strong>of</strong> health<br />
turned it down. It was later reconsidered<br />
and passed by Shiawassee<br />
votes. Food locker men<br />
were against it and farmers who<br />
fear it will prevent them from<br />
killing their own meat.<br />
Mr. and Mrs. Floyd McKath ot<br />
Pontiac were Sunday guests <strong>of</strong><br />

What Is A Truck?<br />
A truck is a lot <strong>of</strong> things . . . food for your table,<br />
clothes for your back, heat for your home. A truck<br />
is medicine for a sick child, gasoline for an automobile<br />
carrying a traveling salesman, merchandise<br />
for the store on the corner ... A truck is something<br />
you simply could not do without — housewife, manufacturer,<br />
fanner, retailer, teen-ager, or whoever you<br />
may be. Because everything you eat, wear, or use<br />
depends on trucks to get to you ... So, next time yon<br />
see a truck on the road, remember —- it's there because<br />
it's got a very important job to do —for you.<br />

BOth Anniversary <strong>of</strong><br />
Light Noted on October 21<br />
October 21, 1879 is the 80th<br />
anniversary <strong>of</strong> Thomas Edison s<br />
invention <strong>of</strong> the first practical<br />
electric light He started with an<br />
investment <strong>of</strong> $40,000 <strong>of</strong> his own<br />
money and $300,000 provided by<br />
a group <strong>of</strong> businessmen. Today<br />
the value <strong>of</strong> plant and equipment<br />
<strong>of</strong> electric light plants ii $44,000,<br />
000,000. We are ahead <strong>of</strong> Russians<br />
there. In 1957 United<br />
States capacity was 146,<strong>22</strong>1,000<br />
kilowatt while Russia was 160,<br />
219 kilowats. Millions are employed<br />
in electric industries now.<br />
Edisons first customers paid<br />
$2.53 a kilowatt. The price now<br />
is 2.53 tenths cents.<br />
The story <strong>of</strong> light is interesting<br />
Torches made <strong>of</strong> resinous material<br />
were first used. Abe Lincoln<br />
is said to have learned to<br />
read by the light <strong>of</strong> blazing pine<br />
knots. Candles were used for<br />
years but they were expensive although<br />
many made their own<br />
from tallow. After the civil war<br />
kerosene oil and gas was used<br />
also gasoline pressure lamps. My<br />
father used big brass kerosene<br />
lamps to light his store.<br />
Edison first used a carbon<br />
thread filament in his incadescent<br />
light bulb. It gave a tiny light<br />
not much bigger than a firefly.<br />
The first electric lights I saw<br />
were about 1900. You had to<br />
have a lot <strong>of</strong> the carbon lights<br />
to get much illumination. They<br />
came on about 5 p.m. and went<br />
out at midnight. Electricity was<br />

light! until about 19<strong>10</strong>. It was<br />
installed by Glenn Gardner. Gasoline<br />
or steam engines furnished<br />
the power. The first electric<br />
light plants were owned by private<br />
persons or villages who<br />
bonded to raise the cost. The<br />
Detroit Edison Co. did not come<br />
here until 1921.<br />
No matter flow mucn time you<br />
find to look for it, lost time is<br />
never found again.<br />

Conservation<br />
Notes<br />
The October conservation had<br />
mostly to do with land. One<br />
hall <strong>of</strong> the 2000 acre Qgemaw<br />
State game refuge was transferred<br />
to the Ogemaw county board <strong>of</strong><br />
supervisors. They will manage<br />
it which the Ten Lakes Sportsmen's<br />
Club will furnish the funds.<br />
They added 640 acres to conservation<br />
lands at Middlevilk, 447<br />
at Proud Lake, 55 at Day Park<br />
and 72 at Muskellunge Lake.<br />

.*••*• ::>tncy General Rules<br />
on Us-* Tax Collections<br />
The Michigan Attorney General<br />
has ruled that the Use Tax if<br />
not a sales tax but a use tax on<br />
the use and consumption <strong>of</strong> food<br />
and must be collected separately.<br />
That the method <strong>of</strong> collection was<br />
written into the law and that those<br />
who are collecting 6c on a $1.49<br />
sale are collecting too much. The<br />
Michigan Retailers Association<br />
sent out a tax collection table in<br />
which the use tax was to be collected<br />
with the sales tax on the<br />
basis <strong>of</strong> one cent to a 17c to 37c<br />
purchase. The use tax reads no<br />
use tax can be collected on purchases<br />
<strong>of</strong> less than 50c. In their<br />
arguments before the supreme<br />
court the supporters for the use<br />
tax argued that it was an entirely<br />
new tax different from the<br />
sales tax.<br />
The supreme court is expected<br />
to hand down a decision on the<br />
constitutionality <strong>of</strong> the use tax<br />
this week.<br />
"Trick or Treat 11 Wasn't<br />
Always with Us on<br />
Hallowe'en, October 31<br />
The Livingston County Press<br />
had an indignant letter from a<br />
mother last week bemoaning the<br />
fact that the Howell school had<br />
sent a note home by pupils asking<br />
last year that they not go out<br />
"Trick or Treating" that the<br />
school would give them treats instead.<br />
She said this deprived her<br />
children from enjoying the pleasure<br />
<strong>of</strong> going around from house<br />
to house trick or treating, with<br />
a bag for the treats. We do not<br />
follow her line <strong>of</strong> reasoning. Trick<br />
and treat, unheard <strong>of</strong> in our distant<br />
youth has become a racket,<br />
the residents here on Halloween<br />
are usually visited by over <strong>10</strong>0<br />
children, some <strong>of</strong> whom come<br />
from as far as <strong>10</strong> miles away to<br />
fill their bags. Some <strong>of</strong> them<br />
are not over 2 years old and are<br />
subjected to the traffic hazards <strong>of</strong><br />
that night. The people here are<br />
kept busy that night answering<br />
their doorbell.<br />

— BEER AND WINE TO TAKE OUT; —
COMMENT<br />
By PAUL W. CURLETT<br />
When the Russian Lunik was making its left hand turn around<br />
the moon. Dr. George Lowe, pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> Wayne University for 19<br />
yean appeared on a TV program last week and said America has<br />
fallen back behind Russia in the space battle because <strong>of</strong> our socialism,<br />
and is winning the space race because they have adopted a form <strong>of</strong><br />
socialism. He said on his recent visit here Premier Kruschechev <strong>of</strong><br />
Russia said Russia rewards its scientists and leaders on their ability<br />
to produce. That is is a basis incentive for human nature to work<br />
for a reward. Kill that incentive and you kill ambition. He said the<br />
race <strong>of</strong> men like Thomas Edison, Charles Kettering, Charles Stenmetz<br />
is becoming extinct. These men all became wealthy but they were<br />
worth billions more than they received. Give a man a chance to reap<br />
greater rewards and you will have genius cropping up. Russia<br />
understands this so it is <strong>of</strong>fering high rewards and is winning. United<br />
States <strong>of</strong>fers their scientists no more than a tradesman receives and is<br />
going behind. We squander billions for materials but skimp for funds<br />
for men.<br />

over the merits <strong>of</strong> rythm conception and contra-cepnV a. Undoubtedly<br />
test tube conception is -Teing practised although it is not vet<br />
generally accepted. We read thai McPherson Hospital, Howeli, has<br />
started a course for expectant mothers. These courses are becoming<br />
popular and now some 40,000 ex peccant mothers are enrolled in such<br />
classes in Michigan at the rate <strong>of</strong> 8000 a year. The estimated cost<br />
<strong>of</strong> the program is 4 million dollars a year. In fact parenthood is becoming<br />
a science.<br />

A Riuaian scfentfet hai lamed the statement that Christ*-<br />
pher Cotambos did not dfecover America. The date has bees<br />
amade before but has attracted littk attention. There art always<br />
ready to break images anil legends for the purpose <strong>of</strong><br />
the treat pages. We have seen stories written to prove<br />
that George WasUaffem did not chop down the cherry tree or<br />
cross the Delaware cUnding up. That Mrs. OXeary's cow did not<br />
start the Chicago fire, that Paul Revere never made his famous<br />
ride. So what? They are arc all good storks and add much to<br />
American history. As to Columbus. That is another matter. It<br />
Is claimed the Norseman, Letf Erkkson came here <strong>10</strong>0 years before<br />
Columbus and landed In New England and established a settlement<br />
then. It has never been definitely proved and no permanent<br />
colonization ever resulted from It and at the ttmt <strong>of</strong> Commons<br />
It was all but forgotten. True, Columbus never landed in the<br />
United States. He landsd in SanSalvador another West Indies<br />
Island and later m South America. Hs was an Italian in the employ<br />
<strong>of</strong> Spain and through his discoveries Spain was the first<br />
colonizer heft and at one time controlled not only the West Indies<br />
bat Sooth America, Central America, Mexico, Florida, Lowiana,<br />
New Mexico, Arizona and California and claimed all lands west<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Mississippi. Spanish ii still the prevalent language In most<br />
<strong>of</strong> these lands today. Spam was not a good colonizer and lost<br />
these lands in North America to France and England who were<br />
better colonizers. They held South and central America until<br />
the nations overthrew them and became independent<br />

The southern states met last week and threatened that 7 southern<br />
states would bolt the ticket next year unless the Democrat* nominated<br />
a conservative for president. They favor a southern candidate<br />
but know they could not elect one and their choice seems to be<br />
centering on Senator Kennedy <strong>of</strong> Massachusetts. He showed great<br />
strength among the southern delegates 4 years ago and came within<br />
a few votes <strong>of</strong> winning the vice presidential nomination. Up to that<br />
time Senator Kennedy had not been rated a conservative. His father<br />
was one <strong>of</strong> the important cogs <strong>of</strong> the Roosevelt and Truman administrations.<br />
Of course the big issue in the south is integration and<br />
the south thinks Kennedy would be more favorable to them on that<br />
issue than any other candidate. He has never taken any stand on it.<br />
However if the Democrats come up with a conservative candidate they<br />
will coinmit political suicide. The Republicans will undoubtedly name<br />
a conservative and the voters will have no clear cut choice in the<br />
election. They have tried it before to their sorrow. The Democrats<br />
named Judge Alton Parker and John W. Davis in past years and<br />
they were swamped.<br />

Did you know that the gasoline tax now climbed to 50 percent<br />
<strong>of</strong> the actual cost in 20 states and that the national average<br />
is now 47 percent. The federal tax has just climbed another cent<br />
a gallon. Gasoline is now taxed five times as much as diamonds<br />
and fur coats. Since 1948 there have been 58 separate gasoline<br />
tax increases in 41 states adding to a 37 percent jump in gasoline<br />
taxes. Retail prices rose 21 percent but the price <strong>of</strong> gasoline a<br />
mere 6 percent<br />

The Industrial and News Review is conducting a campaign<br />
against parcel post on the grounds it competes with private carriers.<br />
It is able to do this because it has always operated with a deficit and<br />
has been subdized by the government. It added that the parcel post<br />
law passed in 1913 specified parcel post should pay its own way but<br />
it never has. We do not follow them. We consider parcel post a<br />
service to the people like the police, fire dept., highways etc. and<br />
should be paid for like the other branches <strong>of</strong> the social service.<br />

MICHIGAN<br />
MIRROR .. .<br />
ID Michigan nearly everybody<br />
talks about the state's<br />
climate. And many are doing<br />
something about it<br />
Among the latest to announce<br />
they will work for a more favorable<br />
gffflfKMn'g climate are 39<br />
business and civic leaders who<br />
will met in December to formally<br />
organize a Michigan State Chamber<br />
<strong>of</strong> Commerce.<br />
Articles <strong>of</strong> incorporation for<br />
the state chamber were filed<br />
with the Michigan Corporation<br />
and Securities Commission early<br />
in October.<br />
• • •<br />
Diversified forces are being<br />
mustered to promote Michigan<br />
economic development<br />
The Republican - controlled<br />
Legislature has created special<br />
committees to study the state<br />
economy.<br />
Democratic Gov. G. Mennen<br />
Williams has appointed 200 Industrial<br />
Ambassadors, a special<br />
committee on Michigan's Economic<br />
Future and a commission to<br />
set policies for the Department<br />
<strong>of</strong> Economic Development.<br />
A nonpartisan Citizens for<br />
Michigan movement has been<br />
started by American Motors President<br />
George Romney.<br />
And both political parties are<br />
preparing for a 1960 repeat <strong>of</strong> the<br />
arguments about economic climate<br />
sounded during the 1958<br />
campaigns.<br />
• • •<br />
No conflict should be presented<br />
by these efforts and those <strong>of</strong> a<br />
state chamber, according to incorporators<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Chamber <strong>of</strong><br />
Commerce.<br />
The chamber hopes to provide<br />
a central organization to coordinate<br />
all activities geared to advance<br />
the general prosperity <strong>of</strong> Michigan.<br />
Behind the new organization is<br />
the belief that businessmen should<br />
take a more active interest in<br />
government.<br />
• • •<br />
Founders <strong>of</strong> the state chamber<br />
are Robert P. Briggs, executive<br />
vice president <strong>of</strong> Consumers<br />
Power Co.; Thomas R. Reid,<br />
civic and governmental affairs<br />
manager for Ford Motor Co.,<br />
and Arthur H. Sarvis, United<br />
Finance Corp., Flint.<br />
Eleven <strong>of</strong> the steering committee<br />
members are from the Detroit<br />
area. They are S. D. DenUyl,<br />
William Day, E. O. George, W<br />
B. Herley, K. G. Taylor, Geor,<br />
Russell, E. H. Rydholm, Harvey<br />
J. Campbell, Richard L. Chapman,<br />

Health Department as a result <strong>of</strong><br />
the investigation.<br />
A uniform system <strong>of</strong> reporting<br />
cases <strong>of</strong> abuse and mistreatment<br />
probably will be worked out by<br />
the department.<br />
The department also is expected<br />
to establish better communications<br />
with relatives <strong>of</strong> patients.<br />
Hospital <strong>of</strong>ficials have been too<br />
tight-lipped, the board said. In<br />
some cases, relatives learned <strong>of</strong><br />
accidents and injuries from policemen<br />
and newspapers.<br />
• * •<br />
A shower <strong>of</strong> dollars has preceded<br />
this season's snowfall.<br />
Forty-three <strong>of</strong> the state's 83<br />
counties will receive snow removal<br />
funds this winter compared to<br />
only <strong>22</strong> last year.<br />
Reason: There was a near record<br />
snowfall last winter.<br />
The State Department will pay<br />
out $549,652 this year on a formula<br />
based on how much snow<br />
fell in the various counties last<br />
winter.<br />

VISIT OBft NEW - . •<br />
Michigan's newspapers, representing<br />
the strongest combined<br />
xorce promoting the state's economic<br />
development, joined forces<br />
for celebration <strong>of</strong> National Newpaper<br />
Week, which ended Oct<br />
21.<br />
A compilation <strong>of</strong> figures baaed<br />
on the <strong>1959</strong> Michigan Newspapers<br />
Directory and Ratebook,<br />
published by the Michigan Press<br />
Association, shows total circulation<br />
<strong>of</strong> Michigan Newspapers in<br />
1958 was 3,191,523 - highest on<br />
record.<br />
Michigan's 56 daily newspapers<br />
had a total circulation <strong>of</strong> 2,390,<br />
613 and the 302 weeklies had a<br />
circulation <strong>of</strong> 800,9<strong>10</strong>.<br />
Considerable fanfare about<br />
alleged abuse <strong>of</strong> patients was in<br />
the air last January when Gov.<br />
Williams appointed the Mental<br />
Health Inquiry Board.<br />
It was asked to determine<br />
whether patients were receiving<br />
humane care and treatment and<br />
to review administrative practices.<br />
The blue ribbon board has finished<br />
its report on the first phase<br />
<strong>of</strong> its investigation. It gave the<br />
mental hospitals a relatively clean<br />
bill <strong>of</strong> health on the question <strong>of</strong><br />
patient care.<br />
Existing policies promote humane<br />
care, according to the<br />
board's report. Infrequent cases<br />
<strong>of</strong> abuse were reported to have<br />
received prompt disciplinary action.<br />
