His Biggest Headache

Tallman's biggest headache. of
course. is. the sewage problem. He
needs 100 miles OF sewage system
10 take care of the six-mlle.Squarc
township
Warren Townships population
today runs between $4,000 and
10000. Tallman estimates
1t viii probably double that
within 18 months If the defense
program keeps going Tallman
estimates that the Chrysler tank
plant will hire 1900 and the
Hudson plant 1000 or 5000 when
in full production. He allows few
thousand more for other plants in
the district.
Tallrnan now has an application
in with the federal government for
a sewage disposal plant and Sys-
tenn. He has assured the govern
ment officials that Warren Town
ship can raise its share of thu
needed money. To date no money
has been forthcoming.

Many Need Wells

This was a rough tour that
Tallman took us on because once
of the main highways Warren
Townships roads are practically
impossible. They're dirt roads.
badly in need of repair-roads
which after a rainy spell become
mires of mud. That is Warren's
second problem.
The third one Is water. There
are not enough water mains in the
township to furnish water 10 all,
therefore a goodly proportion OF
the population must have wells.
Some haul water from neighbors.
The fourth major problem is the
lack Of housing. the fifth and sixth
Jack OF hospitals and sufficient
school rooms.
The man most interested In
solving the problems is Supervisor
Tallman.
His name bellies his size, for he's
short, a bit pudgy around the
waist. and baldish.
He's a neat dresser but you'll sec
a trace OF mud on his shoes and a
burr or two on his trousers. for
he's constantly slushing through
muddy roads TO survey the town.

2I7 Babies This Year

William Lawson. the gray-haired
township clerk who looks so much
like Detroit'S Recorders Judge
Christopher +. Stein that YOU
automatically call him Judge, has
the figures to support Warren's
need for a hospital.

in attendance, but others arrived
without medical aid.
Lawson who lays claim TO being
one of the three Republicans in the
township. agrees with Tallman in
WarTenS needs.
Also backing Tallman in his
complaint against the state and
federal government for not helping
is Justice of the Peace Ark w.
Moss.
Justice Moss makes his living as
the townships leading plumber
and is mainly concerned over the
lack of sewage system.

grade school pupils studying on a
four-hour shift. He believes that
the damage done will show up
when these youngsters enter high
school.
New families are moving in
every day. If it keeps up and no
more room is obtained. there will
just be no school for many chill
.dren.
Warren Township has other
small problems. the problems that
confront any community.
But for a township assessed at
SIC. 100000 Warren is in a deplor-
able state.

No Sewage System

But Warren Townships first
problem is the lack of a sewage
system.

We saw sewage floating atop

Money Is There

Tallman is ready TO assure one
and all that the money is there
for the townships share.
Second problem of major inn
portance To face the supervisor
is roads.
Warrens main thoroughfares
are good. all of them paved. But
it's the side roads and the streets
that cause the trouble. They're
dirt and rainy spell makes them
impossible.
But the Macomb County Road
Commission has one answer for
Tallman's requests: mo money"
The problem right now is not
too bad but come Spring with the
thaw. Warren's increased popula-
ton is going TO have trouble get
ting around
Warren itself has done some
thing about their third problem
water mains.
This year 26 miles Of water

for them. But now 20 more miles
of water mains are needed.
This problem. instead of LESSEN

population.

Political Newcomer

Tallman is a newcomer 10 poll
tics. Raised on a farm. he came 10
Detroit to work, found himself in
the labor movement. Right now
he Is chairman Of the Macomb
County Committee for Good Gov
eminent and the representative of
Labor's Non-Partisan League for
the county.
He was a field representative for
the UAW-CIO. president of the
Greater Detroit Council. andI- in
1887 was president of the Hu6son
Motor Car Company's local of the
UAW-CIO.
He runs the township the way
he ran his union local. Each man
has job 10 do and he expects it
done. He uses a finesse learned in
union bargaining on the federal
government and state men from
whom he hopes TO get money TO
help
Tallman came into the political
picture last April when he defeated
Republican William Strick for the
S2.600-a-year job.
Since his election he admits that
he has had nothing but a head
ache.

the 1941 session of the State leg

to legislation directly affecting or
of interest to the race group which
included the time worn civil rights
bill of Oregon, which the associa-
ton has tried to see pass and for
which rights Senator Kinnon has
championed. He related much OPP

by such opposition, opponents of
the bill said the senator, adhered to
the anidvisability of further at

islature. However, through the lib

association was the discrimination
being made at Elliott School in the

their share. Mr.. and Mrs. Bert
