VIII Probe
Draft Board
80 Zinc snecial service:

News-Times Special Service:
MUSKEGON, Mich. Aug. IL
Muskegon countys draft board, re-
Gently rehabilitated through APP
pointmerf made by Gov. Albert L.
sleeper, will be the subject OF IN
quiry by a state investigator in the
near future.
Former members Of Iuskegon
county's draft board, who resigned
when Lee II. Trott. now secretary OF
the commission, made order out OF
chaos and began handling the draft
problems here, secured as their
champion State Rep. Carl Young of
MuskegOu.
The workings Of the board, up to
the beginning of tIis week. when
rrott took hold. have been marked
confusion, the members seeming
being unable to handle the great
volume OF business before II. Too
many men had been summoned and
scores had been forced TO wait in
line for days at a time before action
could be taken in their cases.
Young's opposition to the appoint
ment of Trott. who was recomm end
ed 10 Gov. Sleeper by DR. w. H..
smith. jr., was expected, as Young
and Smith have been for some time
past political opponents. Fred r.
Young. formerly secretary Of the
board. is also a political opponent
Of DIR. Smith. which brought into
line still further opposition to the
changes made.
The shift in the board came, how
ever. only after protests had been
sent out to Lansing that members OF
the board had failed to handle the
situation here. TrOtt, now secretary
of the board. has been a leader in
Elk and Masonic circles for years.

Gleason OF the park board, and
Park mmissioners Bormna and
Glueck for a great system OF public
parks for Gary. embracing 400 acres.
Just whether the plans will be
carried out depends on conflicting
political elements and ideas among
public officials. Mayor Johnson is
charged with seeking TO condemn
land bought for sites for great in
dustrial plants Mrs. G. w Ray. a
member of the board, wants the city
to condemn part of the site for the
National Tube mills for a lake front
park. Many citizens are objecting
10 the condemnation of any land
which will be necessary for indus
tries.

Life Too Cheap
in Lake County
Coroner Hold S

NewsTimes Special Service:
HAMMOND, Ind, Aug. Life
is too cheap in Lake county and
murderers are punished too lightly.
according to Coroner J. A. Graham.
In sounding a warning against in
creasing murders in Gary. East Chi
cago and Hammond, the coroner
gave out a list Of II murders in
seven and one-half months. One
person is killed every - days.
The record shows II were shot
fatally. three were stabbed, two
were choked and beaten and one
was killed by unknown means.
The only effective way to stop
this wholesale killing is to stop
'gun-toting.' " declares Coroner era
ham. Eleven of the Il murders
were by shooting. In every case
the murderer had a gun hardy.
Others carried knives. # there
were no concealed weapons carried
it is probable that there would have
been only three murders instead of
IL"
The coroner believes that heavy
fines and Jail sentences should be
melted out for carrying concealed
weapons.
