Salvage Committee
 Appointed By Mayor
J. Warren UpsOn to Oficiate as Chairman; COOpera.
 ton With Civilian Defense Agencies Planned

No definite policy has been decided but 1t has been proposed that, aS in the World War, newspapers in the city's homes be collected by it be distributed among local cilari- ties. And a third has been that the money realized be divided in half, one portion going to the schools, the other half to the fund for oper- ation of civilian defenses.
 Mir. Upson announced today that for the present only waste Hlews- papers wsil be gathered from house. wives. Wrapping paper and other scrap paper saved ir1 the homes is not, 1t is felt, of sufficient value to warrant It's collection.
 At its meeting tomorrow the coin- Iilittee will attempt to set in motion the collection machinery. Once Q definite program Is organized Q publicity campaign will be started to secure the cooperation of oil in the saving Of waste materials needed for defense.
 Named by Mir. sculiy to the com nlittee, in addition to Chairman Upson, are the following:

 Charles shortt, 61 of North Main street, Bucks Hill, Q farmer, was fined Si00 and costs and had 47b remitted when he was arraigned on q charge if operating under the inc fuence of liquor before Judge T. E. Conway in municipal court today.
 Shortt was arrested Dec. { after the car had crashed through e fence and plunged down Q 10 foot embankment and turned over on It's right side.
 sergt. Joseph Petit and Motor Patrolman John Mcdonnell testi- fled that the accused was under the influence and that he staggered twice when he was led from the overturned car to the road. Defense Attorney George Lynch drew an ad- mission from the police who 1nves- tigated that the place where the car overturned was rough and boggy and that Q swamp was near. In ad- dition to sergt. Petit and Patrol. man Mcdonnell, Motor Patrolman Matthew Guarini and Desk Lieut.. Barney Burns corroborated the statement of the officers that the accused was under the influence of liquor.
 Shortt testified that as he was rounding Q left turn on Bucks Fill his attention was absorbed with c man cutting & limb from c tree, and when he looked again he was going through the fence.
 Attorney Lynch pointed out that the curve where the accused car left the road was dangerous sec- ton and that previous cars have struck the fence, adding that only two upright posts were standing and the fence itself was broken at the time Shortts car went over the bank.
 The accused record and his re- Sponsibility in the community where he lives were factors which the court considered in imposing the sen- tence.

Arrest This Killer!

THE hit-run killing of 8year-old Jimmie OLeary was
ore of the most such crimes in recent Detroit
history.
All fatalities inflicted by hit-run motorists are brutal
and inexcusable.
They ndict their perpetrators as devoid of response
bity and compassion and courage.
Htrun drivers per pretty wretched creatures.
Their acts cannot be justified but they sometimes are
possible of explanation the grounds of extreme
drunkenness or abject physical fear.
The killer of little Jimmie OLeary is stripped even of
these two mean excuses.
Police reports indicate that after his struck the
child he stopped lifted the manged form into his and
then drove into obscure alley where he dumped the
body out.
A drunken man would not have been cunning.
Neither would suffering panic fear
The ht-run killer of Jimmie OLeary showed every
evidence of having been full possession of all his british
faculties
Every effort should be made to apprehend him.
