sitions defended only by very
small Greek forces.
a very violent struggle took
place all day in the main zone
of the area Of the Bulgarian

IN MEMORY OF THOMAS w
FAJIKNFR DIED JUNE 26 1871
DADDY

Just a few weeks ago.
And our hearts were burdened so.
When you departed from this life,
Leaving five children and a sweet
wife.
Daddy, we do miss you SO,
Words cannot express Il loss OF
Your vacant place Will always be
A cherished memory there for me,
Although, you toiled through this
earth so long
To wish you back it must be wrong
We rejoice to think you are at rest
In that sweet home of the blest.
1t seems so long since you left us,
And heard your steps around the
place.
Our home will never be the same
to us,
Without seeing your sweet face.
Thorough all of your affections
Your were patient and the same
How our hearts do burn within US
When we mention your sweet name
We miss you more n more
AS the year roll slowly OF
For there's that lonely feeling
Since our dear dad has gone.
Daddy, we shall never forget yoW
teachings
Your kindness and your care
| And we shall never forget them
When we kneel to God in prayer
Up there you'll have no suffering
Like you went through down here
Your worries are all now over
And you are happy there.
Daddy, we did love you so
And we hated to e you go
But our Saviour knew the best
When he TOOK you nome to rest
So time has brought a change dea
daddy.
A change no n can erase.
For you are now with the angels
Where you can see his blessed fac,
Oh God, grant that hat one day i
heaven
When our earthly tasks are over
That we may have a home i
heaven
And there be together foreve
more.

The Detroit Bureau Of Govern

bulletin criticizing severely the
new Wayne County budget adopted
by the finance committee Of The
Board Of Supervisors.
Bearing The signature of Lent
p JPseR, director, the bulletin
criticizes particularly the proposed
S731 900 salary increases for
county employees.
Departing from it's usually
conservative budget practices,
the bulletin said, 1.-THE Wayne
County Board of Auditors has
proposed an all-time high budget
TO be financed with practically
no margin OF safety.
DANGER OF SLUMP
"On the revenue side, esti-
mates can very easily fall short

sion.
Even now the county Is
gnawing away at deficit left
by the last depression which
once exceeded $4,000, 1000"
The new budget totals S23, 337.-
600. an increase of S2061 900 over
last year, the bulletin stated. II
said that pa positions on the
county payroll are now over the
Detroit maXimums. while only is

Refuse
Express
Shipments

Detroit began feeling more fully
the effects of the Railway Express
I sgency strike today as the regu-
liar working week began with
scarcely no air and rail express
shipments into city offices and
factories.
Called Friday, the strike affected
relatively few shipments over the
weekend, said local superintendent
r. N. VOCAL, and a handful of en-
ployes still continued delivery OF
shipments sent before the strike
was called today. But new ship
ments TO or from Detroit are not
being accepted.
"A number of the offices and
plants affected are working on
defense contracts" Vogel said.
The strike resulted from a juris-
dictional dispute between the
Transfers Union (AFL) and the
Brotherhood Of Railway Clerks,
also AFL. Each union claims juris-
diction over the approximately 800
drivers employed by the agency.
Thus far peace conferences have
failed to break the deadlock.
V. L. Finley, representing the
brotherhood which called the
strike. said that no parleys have
been scheduled for today. One
hundred brotherhood ~ members
plcketed the central office Of the
company, Seventeenth street and
Newark avenue, while customers
swamped it with telephone calls
asking the status of expected
SHIPMENTS.
