POLICE PUBLICITY.

Captain Of Detectives McDuffie says he is
not satisfied with the newspaper publicity he
is getting. He tells a delegation of AID Club
members invited to confer with himself and
The sheriff that the Advertiser misrepresents
the detective department work and that the
star Bulletin does not go behind the Adver-
tieer reports and tell the public the truth of
what the detectives are doing to enforce law
and order.
What Captain McDuffie evidently really
means in lis reference to this paper is that the
Star Bulletin isn't defending him zealously
enough from the Advertiser : attacks.
The Star hlletih has something else to do
besides answering from McDuffies side
every criticism printed in the advertiser A
lot of them are not worth answering. When
this paper feels that real injustice has been
done McDuffie and that as a newspaper pub

Tnlness ID preventing unfairness, we state the
case. TIE Star Bulletin objected to the unfair
manner. IN which McDuffie was attacked before
the civils<ervice commission something over a
year ago, and every contention made by this
paper was upheld in the commissions final de-
cision. The Star.Bulletin has repeatedly drawn

tive department. We have printed numerous
letters from the captain and other members Of
the force But this paper is not now, never
las been aud never will be in the business of
ehfonicalIS defending tile. detective depart
ment from Advertiser censure Life is too
short real news too pressing. The Star
Bulletin can Z be run as a personal organ of
the detective department. and that IS what it
would have to be to answer all the Advertisers
attacks. upon the department and its captain.
Inaslnuch as the sheriff and the detective
captain have asked the Ad Club to give police
matters proper publicity we suggest that
the Ad Club committee, If il takes up this sub
ject at all, start in by getting the facts as to
what has been published for and against Mr.
McDuffie and his associates. Since the captain
mentions the Star-Bulletin, the AID Club com
mittee Is invited to ascertain from the printed
records what has been published about the de
tective department and its work.
McDuffie is quoted as saying that heavier
fines in police court would help the police. This
is no original thought Both papers have re-
iterated it and when exemplary fines were inn
posed have drawn attention fo-that fact.
Publicity-by all means give the detective
department thorough publicity! The Star
Bulletin believes it will be beneficial Captain
McDuffie hasn't complained to the Star
Bulletin that his department is not done Justice
in the columns of this paper, but if that is the
impression he has given the Ad Club members,
they areat liberty at any time to ascertain the
facts so far as we are concerned.

Boost West Michigan by This
Organization.

Traverse City, Mich.-The figures
have been compiled which tell what
has been done in a publicity way foi
Western Michigan during the past
year. Over ninety thousand pieces OF
printed matter have been distributed
over thirteen thousand news letters
have been sent to newspapers, nearly
twelve thousand letters have been
mailed, approximately five thousand
being individual dictated letters. Over
two thousand letters went to super
visors. Over seven hundred photo
graphs were furnished to newspapers
and magazines and about twenty
pages of special articles prepared for
publishers and editors.
Printed matter has been sent into
practically every state in the union
and to a number of foreign countries.
Articles telling of Western Michigan
and its possibilities have appeared in
newspapers and magazines in many
of the larger cities between the At
lantic Coast and the Rocky Mountains.
Thousands of people have become in
terested in the Western Michigan
country and its wonderful resources.
Several thousand people visited the
region the past season and many
more are coming in the immediate
future. A reasonable per cent of
these visitors become settlers. West
ern Michigan is becoming favorably

commission for this radical proposal.
1t is the theory of the commission
that Michigan should seek to slow up
the procedure of divorce so that mar
ried couples cannot separate one day
and apply for divorce the day fol-
lowing. "The laws delay is justifi-
able in divorce cases." said one of the
commissioners in submitting the re-
port to Governor Ferris.
If the legislature acts favorably on
the recommendation of the commits
sion, prosecuting attorneys and their
representing either party in a divorce
case and the prosecuting attorneys
will be required to appear in all pro
confesso divorce proceedings. Wife
desertion will be made felony where
the father has been ordered by the
court to pay for the maintenance of
the child. Fathers of illegitimate
children can be made to pay for the
maintenance of the children. In such
cases, the commission recommends
that where the parentage is estab-
lished the child is eligible to parti-
cipate in the estate of the father.
Holding Back of Decree Favored.
The commission also recommends
that nonresident defendants in di-
vorce cases be permitted to file a
cross bill. Unless injunction is needed
to protect property rights the COM
mission is of the opinion that appli-
cants for a divorce cannot file a bill
until 60 days after the formal separa-
ton has taken place. Circuit judges
would be required to decide divorce
cases in 60 days and render a condi-
tional decree, reserving final decree
for another period of four months.
1t is generally conceded that prac-
tically every recommendation of the
commission will encounter strenuous
objection and some of the provisions
appear certain of defeat, but it is be-
lieved that the marriage and divorce
laws will undergo radical change
during the coming session of the leg.
islature and determined effort will
be made by the members of the COM
mission to have their ideas enacted
into law.

Legislative recommendation of the
commission appointed by Governor
Ferris to revise and codify the state
statutes, as the commission recon-
mends that applications for marriage
licenses be made 80 days in advance
of the wedding and that the county
clerk be required to publish the banns
once each week for a period of six
weeks.
Whites Couldn't Marry Blacks.
Proceeding on the theory that hasty
marriages increase the number of di-
vorces the commission in drafting it's
recommendations for the new domes-
tic relations act, makes some radical
departures from the present system.
The commission would make it a
felony for whites and blacks to inter-
marry and if the ideas of the COM
|, mission are carried into effect former
! inmates of state asylums will be re-
quired. to present a certificate from
the secretary of the state board of
health showing that they are physi-
cally fit to marry before license may
be obtained.
While no specific mention is made
concerning a eugenics law the COM
mission recommends that a bill be
passed requiring physicians to report
Immediately every case of venereal
that is called to their attention. Dur
ing the 90-day period between the
time application is made for a mar
riage license and the time granted,
county clerks will be expected to
write to the secretary of the state
board of health to ascertain whether
either party has disease that would
render marriage inadvisable. The
commission recommends the passage
of law that would make it a felony
for a person afflicted with a venereal
disease to marry.
