engineering consultants. . writ
Of mandamus re-instating the
firms suit asking more than
5000 from Macomb county.
The original suit involving
Soes for work done in connec-
tion with the i'll fated Red Run
drain was started in Judge
Spier's courtroom in May OF
1887. On April II, 1899 Judge
Spisr, acting under the statue
Of limitations, dismissed the suit
against the county for want OF
progress.
The drain was to affect Oak
land, Wayne, Lapeer and st.
Clair counties, and the engineer
ing work was performed prior
10 1880. After Oakland was
billed for $37.455.25 and Ma
comb for $5,027.57, by the firm,
litigation followed until 1887
when the Macomb case was de-
,layod while the courts decided

When Assistant Prosecutor
Howard r. Carroll argued the
statute of limitations had been

organized vice establishments.
Following Is Sheriff Theut's
statement concerning conditions:
SHERIFF'S STATEMENT
II do not believe that there
is anything in my record ~ .
law enforcement officer that re-
quires justification and L have
no apologies to offer. On the
other hand, in the face of wildly
exaggerated statements carried
by Detroit newspapers, do feel
that you good citizens of Ma
comb county are entitled to a
brief statement from your sher-
if.
Here is all that have to say
upon the matter.
II resent, and believe that all
Macomb county residents must
resent, the unfair position in
which one particular Detroit
newspaper has attempted to
place our thriving and happy
communities.
THAT vice exists in Macomb
county no one denies. It always
has and, / believe, always will.
The sheriffs office does not be-
gin to have the manpower to
police every corner of every
street. We have, as q matter of
fact, but nine deputies available
for investigation and general as
signments in an area of 107 900
population and 470 square miles
of territory to police. However,
in the face Of conditions which
have been greatly aggravated by
industrial expansion In the
South end of the county and q
greatly enlarged military eytab-
lishment near Mount Clemens,
we have done our best to con-
troll all types of law-violation.
We will continue to do so.
ANY adult Macomb county
resident can easily recall that
Detroit newspapers, down
through the years, have formed
the habit of using Macomb coun-
ty as a football. They kick it
around whenever news seems
slack at home.
For some reason the same
Detroit newspapers which pc
riodically find things amiss in
Macomb county found no occas-
ion to crusade at home until
court action forced actual con-
ditions into the open.
Lest anyone suspect that l
feel we are beyond all reproach
let me now 60 on record as say
ing that / know the law is vio-
lated in Macomb county, as it is
elsewhere. I know, too, that we
can and will stand upon our rec
ord.
All instances of law viola
tons, in whatever field they may
take place and which come to my
attention, will be acted upon
promptly. Legitimate complaints
will receive swift attention and
my patrols have been instructed
to keep their eyes wide open for
all types of law infraction.
Il believe vice to be rather
we'll controlled in Macomb
county. It will be increasingly
controlled as we develop per-
sonnet and experience.
In contrast to the conditions
which have existed, and for all
/ know still exist, in Wayne
county, / believe the people Of
Macomb county have reason to
feel proud.
II will stand on my record"
Police Chief Rosso, of Mount
Clemens, today told The Daily
Monitor that reports indicating
that as many % 500 girls are
employed in Mount Clemens
vice resorts on week-ends are
obvious exaggerations."
I'VE have had no complaints"
Chief Rosso said. "When we re-
ceive complaints we act upon
them at once. am sure that
there has been no expansion Of
