Nolan Battles
For Buses toSave
S1,637,0OO a Year

DSR General Manager Fred A.
Nolan today took a stand against
the elimination of bus lines on
Woodward and Grand River ave-
nues and the greater use of street
cars as part of a rubber saving"
plan because il would cost the
DSR S1.637,00 annually and les
sen efficiency. The DSR commits
sion went along with his recon-
mendations and agreed not 10 put
the plan into force unless ordered
TO by the federal government.
The program which would put
street cars back on certain streets
on Sunday nights would require
the rehabilitation of all old cars
now held by the DSR, the hiring
of go new employees and the pur-
chase of three new street cars.
Nolan reported. If traffic in
creased, as Nolan feels il will, new
cars and buses will have 10 be
purchased because the program
would put into service the DSR's
present reserves.
The program would save 1882
pounds of rubber and 100000
gallons OF gas annually, he said
However. if the DSR Is forced 10
put the program into effect. Nolan
said all private suburban lines
should be forced 10 do so likewise
and this will save an additional
20494 pounds OF rubber and
S9i 900 gallons of gas.

He was born a. years ago in the little town

businessman. But such a life did not appeal
to Avila Camacho. He wanted excitement and
adventure. He found both in the revolution of
1914, when at the age of II he Joined Car

He came out of the war a lieutenant.

President Cam achO: he 3 letting

with heavy jowls and the neck of wrestler.
He is forceful, unrhetorical speaker. He
uses no impassioned gestures; his words are
deliberate. his manner sincere He conveys to
the audience his own confidence and practical
optimism.
But the President of Mexico knows that
words are not enough to combat totalitarian
aggression. They must be backed up by prac-
tical action. To guard against fifth-column
dirty work, he has proposed joint intel
ligence service for the United States. Mexico
and other Latin-Amercan nations.
On the day that the United States declared
war, Mexico broke off diplomatic relations
with the Japanese Empire. Three days later
President Avila Camacho severed relations
with Germany and Italy. Mexico part in the
conflict, he told a nationwide radio audience,
under present circumstances will not be in
the trenches but in the factories and fields" to
further production and contribute to the
security of America"
Hes Cooperating
4oDAY. United States warplanes are allowed
to fly over Mexican territory on their way to
and from the Panama Canal, under reciprocal
convention between the United States and
Mexico. Avila Camacho has initiated legisla-
ton to the effect that Mexico shall not regard
as belligerent any American nation at war
with non-American nation. Airplanes, SOL
diers and ships of American belligerents are
now allowed to use Mexican ports, waters and
terrain. Certainly he is making good on his
pledge that the United States can rely on
Mexico's solidarity and cooperation
He is undermining the army as rapidly as
possible. increasing its mobility and striking
power. AS soldier he knows the advantages
OF organization, speed and fire power. The
Republic is believed to have at present about
10000 regular troops and 5000 reservists.
There are also the air force. marines and navy.
Just how the Mexican and United States
navies are cooperating to protect the coasts
OF North America is an official secret guarded
in Mexico City and Washington But it is
known that their joint activities are far
reaching.
AS the United States girds itself for great
struggle against the European and Asiatic
powers of the Axis, we can look with con-
fidence to our neighbors. Never have relations
between the republics of Mexico and the
United States been so cordial In large
measure Avila Camacho's s insistence that the
defense of America is common cause to all
of us" has effected that cordiality He has
wholeheartedly reciprocated our govern
ment's policies of Pan-American solidarity
and friendship.
Such working example of Good Neighbor
illness cannot but foreshadow failure for the
Axis offensive against the New World.

Rs - plans for world
conquest Mexico was
&assss@ ~ to be the Achilles heel
of North America. The
Axis would strike at the United States through
our southern neighbor.
But these daringly conceived plans have
been frustrated. And one who played most
important part in upsetting Hitler's plans is
man so mpretentious in manner and appear
ance that if you passed him on the street you
might hardly notice him. He is General
Manuel Avila Camacho President of Mexico.
Hitler's attack on the Americas was to be
an inside job He has said so on many occa-
sions. German fifth oolumnists and saboteurs
would undermine the Americas by destroying
their unity Class would be set against class,
nation against nation. And the countries of
the New World would fall into his lap like ripe
plums.

ing to influence reactionary politicians, re-
cruiting minority groups and individuals who
opposed the ideals of democracy.
Part of their campaign was to create fear
and suspicion of the United States. The
Nazis screamed against Yankee imperial
ism, dollar diplomacy" and the colossus of
the north" Uncle Sam was painted as a
greedy, bullying tyrant who waited only for
the right moment to seize the Latin-American
nations and enslave their peoples.
This campaign was gaining headway when
General Avila Camacho came into Office in
194O Certain ostensibly Mexican newspapers
already were haranguing against Yankee
imperialism"
The story of how Avila Camacho helped to
thwart that Axis offensive in North America
is one of the most vital chapters in the history
of the Western Hemisphere.
Wsssss No Time
6vEN before he became President, Camacho
had seen through Hitlers plans. And. once
in office, the practical Chief Executive imme-
diately started his drive against Nazism.
His answer to German propagandists who
sought to spread disInity and distrust was
to proclaim forthrightly his support of Pan
Americanism and his close friendship with the
United States. The destinies of the United
States and Mexico" he stated, ARE common
geographically and politically. Mexico has
nothing in common with Nazism or Com
munism. Mexico is democracy"
1t would be hard to find two men who differ
more sharply than the Fuehrer of Nazi Ger
many and the President of Mexico The Nazi
is brilliant, cratic, cruel, dictatorial, fanatical
and unpredictable The Mexican is calm,
deliberate, kindly, democratic and logical.

A WPB order last June 3 linn

LANSING, Dec. % - (P) -
Governor Van Wagner person
ally will surrender to Harry F.
Kelly the keys to the. executive
office in the New Years Day
inaugural ceremonies.
Van Wagner agreed Monday
to participate in the simple GER
emony, which will be conducted
in the presence only of the
families of the officials taking
their oaths OF office, with none
of the traditional inaugural fes-
tivities.
DR.. Eugene B. Elliott, Super
intendent of Public Instruction,
who will be the master of GER
emonies, and Kelly said the pro-
gram would be broadcast
(WXYZ) and would last only
half hour, from 10 a. m. to
1890.
Van Wagner is to deliver a
brief message surrendering the
office to Kelly, followed by the
swearing-in of the officials-elect
by Associate Justice Emerson
R. Boyles of the Supreme Court,
who will become chief justice
the same day. The oaths will be
administered to Kelly, Lieut..
Gov. Eugene c. Reyes, Secretary
of State Herman H. Dignan,
State Treasurer Theodore /. Fry,
Attorney General Herbert j.
Rushton and Auditor General
Vernon ]. Brown.
John r. Dethmers, Republican
state chairman, will introduce
Kelly for a brief inaugural ad-
dress.
Usual fanfare of Inaugural
ton day was wiped off the pro-
gram book by order of the Of
ficials-elect, who said it would
only be a lure to politicians to
waste transportation facilities
for purpose which scarcely
could be construed as essen
tial."
