Your correspondent, Mrs. Will
liam McBain, is glad to be home
again after six weeks vacation
in Miami and other parts of Flor
ida. Leaving here on St. Valent-
tines Day, the trip was made by
motor to the west coast with stop
overs at st. Petersburg and Sara
sofa, where Mayor McBain and Mr..
Lee Engle of Rockville, tried their
luck at deep sea fishing. Alas, the
ocean proved too rough and after a
days fishing, they returned to
shore with only a few small ones.
A most wonderful art museum
established in Sarasota some years
ago by the Ringing brothers, of
circus fame, is special feature of
attraction, there some of the paint
ings so rare, it is said, that they
can be found no other place in the
world.
The noted Schroeder family of
kilgore, Neb., whose concerts have
been given all over the United
States happened to be in town
while We were there and great
crowds gathered on the streets
each evening to hear their musical
programs. Mr.. Schroeder was not
unlike our own Mr.. James Schroe-
der, here, and could easily pass as
a relative.
One Of the most interesting side
trips in Miami was a visit to Key
West and nothing could be more
beautiful in the way of scenery
than those tropical waters, which
reflect all the colors of the rain
bow. The most southerly home
in the U. S. proved of interest in
Key West, likewise monument on
one of the keys dedicated to the
memory of the soldiers and citizens
who lost their lives in the hurri-
cane of September, 1885.
Friends of Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew
w. He'll, formerly of Washington
Grove, will be glad to learn that
they are both well and happy in
their Florida home and expect to
return here for visit during the
summer.
A recent letter from the Waltons
in Clermont, states that they will
arrive at their home here during
this month.
Later in our stay in Miami Mr..
Engle caught 361s pound King,
81 inches long and the Mayor a
"a pound King, 48 inches long after
fierce struggle with a porpoise,
who was trying to take it from the
line. Both had their pictures taken
showing their catch. The cold
weather up North made itself felt
down South too, for winter wraps
and even fur coats We're in evil
dence. Having gone down in years
past when we would have to don
summer clothing long before reach
ing Miami, it would seem that the
climate is undergoing a change for
not a single day was uncomfortab-
ly warm this year.
Stop overs in Lake Worth, Stu
art, st. Augustine, Fla; Walter
boro, s. c.; Wilson, N. c. and N.Y.
ock, N. c., where we paid a brief
visit to DR.. and Mrs. Yates Barber
who wished to be remembered to
all their friends here, were enjoyed
on the homeward trip, the last step
OF the journey being by boat from
Norfolk to Washington.
In closing, I might say If you
have an opportunity to visit the
city of st. Augustine, where ancient
history reigns supreme, be sure to
see Marineland on the ocean shore

Piekeft Slated
To Walk Plank

LANSING, Jan. 2S.-Although
Governor Van Wagner is riding
high seas these days as a result
of his threat to fire Brig. Gen.
Heinrich A. Pickert as commander
of the eastern area Michigan State
Troops, he apparently is holding
true to his original course.
Reliable information is that
Pickert will be replaced, but not
until the State Defense Council
is reorganized. The governor be-
gan this task last Friday by
naming DR.. Harold A. Furlong of
Detroit to succeed former Gov.
WILDER M. Brucker as chairman OF
the council.
Other changes are 10 follow.
Meanwhile, Van Wagner has
urged the Legislature TO speed a
bill giving the defense board wide
regulatory powers.
The storm broke a week ago
when the governor heard Clio rep
reSentativeS and officials of 9other
groups berate Pickert.
IF Pickert is so universally
disliked there Is no place for him
in the state government" the
chief executive said.
This was followed by a barrage
from Pickert defenders, principally
organizations of veterans.
AS A result. Van Wagner has
been in a tight spot. But it was
learned today that the former
Detroit police commissioner still
is slated to walk the plank.

previous occasions to make an
appointment at the White House.
Whatever GOODNESS may have
existed in the past, however-said
TO date back several years, to the
Presidents efforts TO aid the
reelection of Frank Murphy-it is
apparent here that the defense
program has thrust it into the
background.
Governor Van Wagner said last
week that he intended to support
the administration defense

1t has been rumored recently
that he might be proffered a post
in the defense commission, but this
is officially denied, and the COVER

Senate Doubles
Appropriation
For State Ads

LANSING. jan 2S,-In spite OF
isy opposition on economy
grounds, the Senate last night
passed and sent to the House
today a bill doubling the states
advertising expenditures for the
next biennium.
The bill. introduced by Senator
Otto w. Bishop (R) of Alpena,
calls for 100000 a year to be
spent in national advertising. Each
of the four state tourist asSocia-
tons will receive SIS, 1000 annually,
the other S4e9,9e to be spent on
advertising the state as a whole"
under direction of the governor,
auditor general highway commits
sioner and the managers of the
tourist bureaus.
Before l vote on this BILL"
warned Sena or James A. Burns
Cd of Detroit, "just remember
that there's School for the
Deaf at Flint that needs money.
And o other institutions need
funds a lot worse than the state
needs Advertising
WOULD CUT DEFICIT
Senator Joseph A. Baldwin (R)
Of Albion argued against the bills
provision for an increase because
he said nothing is being done
about reducing the states deficit"
The Senate also passed and sent
to the House a bill allowing whole
sale gasoline distributors, who
collect gas tax for the state, TO
pay the cost of their bonds out of
receipts. 1t aSo reduces the mini
mum bond required from $1,000 to
$1,000.
To be introduced in the Senate
today is a bill TO allow counties
to retain 35 cents of each drivers
license fee, the sums collected 10
be used for enforcement of traffic
laws. Under the present law, the
money is collected by the secre-
tary of state and refunded to
counties. 1t now specifies that
refunds are to be used for conduct
ing drivers license examinations.

Pension
Bill Hits
Detroit

LANSING -2s-The= House
of Representatives today scheduled
for passage bill requiring Detroit
to contribute to pensions for out
state school board employees, other
than teachers.
Teachers now have their own
pension system. The measure be-
fore the House sets up annuities
for all other educational employees,
from janitors to clerks and secre-
taries, and it makes possible a
state appropriation to meet the
cost II 3 per cent of salary
contribution is insufficient
The measure would hit Detroit
because ii finances its own pension
system and would not benefit from
the proposed law.
But Detroit would be the big
contributor when money is taken
from the state treasury to finance
the system.
AID FOR INCUMBENTS
Rep. Edward Walsh, chairman
Of the Wayne County delegation.
introduced a bill providing that
incumbent officeholders shall be
so designated when they seek
reelection.
The measure results from the
astonishing fact that Supreme
Court Justice Emerson r. Boyles,
heretofore a Republican leader.
Carried HaRatEamek- last-eleetiea
while the city otherwise was Civ
ing Democrats majorities as high
as 100 to !.

All circuit judges will be desig-
mated as incumbentS in the forth

Walsh's idea is that partisan
officeholderS should have a like
advantage.
