II was the ever-eloquent Winston
Churchill who, months back. spoke
OF the new ties which are binding
England and the United States to-
gether, and, in magnificent phrases,
likened this to the Mississippi Riv-
er-saying, let it roll, in full flood,
Ito broader lands and better days
That too is the hope of Washington
for the world of the future.
The peace of such world would
be guaranteed by two great pow
ers-the United Kingdom and the
United States. They will have the
navies and the gigantic air forces.
They will guarantee the liberties
of little nations. They will work
for higher standard of living for
all. 1t is a splendid dream. But,
until and unless all that the Hitler
theory of government represents is
destroyed, it can be only a dream.

Glass Studies
Car Production

NEW HAVEN - The h & h
school class in Physics were
guests last Wednesday of the
Chrysler corporation, in Detroit,
where a trip through the entire
assembly plant proved of un-
usual interest to the physicists.
The students studied two lines
of car production, one that roll
ed off a car every minute and
another that completed a car
every two minutes.
Following the trip to the
Chrysler plant the class visited
the WJR studio in the Fisher
building. All made the trip to
the observation tower for the
birdseye view of downtown De-
troit.
Superintendent Edward Siefert
and Maurice Pernert, athletic di-
rector in the school, accompan-
led the group.

term In the Detroit House Of
Correction. McCrea and Wilcox
presumably will be sent to the
state prison Of southern Michi-
gan.
The sentencinss climaxed two
years Of inquiry touching on var
ious forms of gambling and
"payoffs" to law officers which
witnesses and the state said went
into hundreds of thousands Of
dollars.
In imposing the four and q
half to Ave year prison terms
and the $4,000 fines, Judge
Pugsley handed down nearly the
heaviest penalty permitted by
the law. The maximum Is Ave
years and $4,000 fine.
McCrea, thrice elected Wayne
county prosecutor and q turbu-
lent figure in county affairs, still
faces trial on other indictments
in the general gambling-graft in
vestigation. So does former
Sheriff Wilcox.
Now in his SOS, McCrea had
served six years as prosecutor
until former Gov. Luren d.
Dickinson ousted him-and Will
cox as well-from office after
the indictments.
The state charged that McCrea
took more than 1000 in graft
and Wilcox $4,000.
BOTH TO APPEAL
Both McCrea and Wilcox said
they would appeal. The court ar
ranged to permit them to remain
at liberty under $4,000 bonds.
The case was the first to be
tried since Circuit Judge Homer
Ferguson began his one-man
grand jury investigation of Off
cial corruption in Wayne county
almost two years ago.
Yesterday, Judge Ferguson,
sitting as an examining magis-
trate, ordered eight persons In
dicted by his grand jury held for
circuit court trial on charges Of
conspiring to obstruct justice.
They were: Charles w. Swales,
former deputy under the late
Sheriff Henry Behrendt; Max
Goodman, former chief clerk;
William Abass; Lucille and Har-
old Kahler; Charles Muradian;
Joseph Semetko, and Eddie Way,
alleged graft collie ctor for
Behrendts office.
No date was set for trial and
bond Of 81 1000 for each defend
ant was continued.

work. Most of the Dodge cylinder
heads are supplied by the New
Haven plant.
An official Of the New Haven
local was quoted as saying that
the unuion will not consider
opening the plant until the COM
pany agrees to the elimination
of piece-work and closed
shop"
COUNTER PROPOSAL
The three counter-suggestions
made by the company at last
nights meeting included a five
cents an hour minimum wage
boost, a five cent an hour blan-
ket wage increase and a 3O-hour
bonus to take the place of vaca-
ton pay.
The union had demanded a IS
cent per hour blanket wage in
crease, elimination of piece
work, a closed shop and two
weeks vacation with pay.
A reliable source said that
last nights vote resulted from
what union heads said were "the
ignoring of the real issues by the
company" 81
Although no violence was wit
messed last night, a number of
additional deputies joined Chief
of Police Alton Possey in his
guard in front of the plants main
gates after what was termed ian
undercurrent of resentment" was
evinced by over 500 persons
battered near the struck plant.
REMOVES BLOCKS
The truck was permitted TO
move the cylinder blocks at 4:30
p. m. yesterday after official per-
mission was granted by the
union. The blocks were said
manufactured before the strike
had been called.
Informed sources aid that
another request to move addi-
tional blocks this morning had
been denied.
All beer gardens-which were
closed on the day the strike was
called and reopened several days
ago-were again closed last
night in what Chief of Police
Possey said was "a precautionary
measure"
Sumner d. Lampkins, presi-
dent and general manager Of the
struck plant, was contacted at
the Mount Clemens hotel this
afternoon. but told reporters that
I'VE have no statement to make.
Everything is pro Or essing
nicely"
New Haven merchants have
begun to feel the brunt OF the
strike, and today were consider
ing banding together In an effort
to bring about some solution OF
the problems, . source disclosed.
Over 500 persons were thrown
out of work when the strike was
called early last Wednesday
morning after negotiations 20

D"Memories Of the past and

liam Durre.
The Legion Club Is blooming

women complete preparations
for the annual observance OF
Poppy Day here, Saturday, May
"a. The little red flowers Of
memory are being taken from
the boxes in which they came
from the Battle Creek hospital,
where they were made by dis
abled war veterans, and ar
ranged for distribution on the
streets on Poppy Day.
The peoples are made In exact
replica. Of the wild peoples Of
France and Belgium which grew
In such profusion on the World
War battle fields, said Mrs.
Durre. They are shaped from
crepe paper with wire stems.
The disabled men who make
them often work under great
handicaps but acquire remark
able skill in producing q close
resemblance to the natural
flower.
Many hundreds Of men who
could not possibly find or per-
form other work are given en-
ployment by the auxiliary In the
poppy program. AS this employ
ment is restricted to those re-
ceiving little or no government
compensation and who have fam
lilies to support, the money they
earn brings vitar help to . large
number Of homes. More than
100000 has been paid by the
auxiliary this year In wages to
the poppy makers.
The men who make these flow
ers are the comrades Of those In
whose honors the peoples are
worn. They are the ones who
were not called upon to give
their lives but to give the health
and strength which makes life
worthwhile. Into the little flow
ers they place great memories
of the past and from the work
they derive new hope for the fu-
ture.
