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 />

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 />

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 />

chairman and P. W. Curlett,<br />

Sec.-Treas.<br />

A good crowd attended the<br />

Democrat rally at the Community<br />

Hall Thursday night. M. E.<br />

to storm the arsenal. He<br />

hurt again.<br />

Ye Editor and M. E. Darrow asked the militia to lead the attack<br />

but they refused, saying they<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 />

EXTENSION NEWS<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 />

the Lynn Hendees.<br />

L. J. Swarthout and son, Ronnie,<br />

spent the weekend at their<br />

only saw 2 deer.<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 />

The first street lights were furnished<br />

by two big carbon pencils<br />

in a glass globe when the<br />

current jumped from one to the<br />

other it made a blinding white<br />

light<br />

<strong>Pinckney</strong> did not get electric<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 />

Drawings for the any deer<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 />

QUALITY MERCHANDISE AT LOW PRICES<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 />

Planned parenthood is becoming more and more accepted whether<br />

you favor it or not. The days <strong>of</strong> <strong>10</strong> or more children families<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 />

—• —•—<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 />

—•—•—<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 />

—•—•—<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 />

Changes are expected, however,<br />

in operation <strong>of</strong> the Mental<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 />

Sfi<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 />
