OLD TOWN CLOCK

A few sentimental old tim
ers probably shed some tears
during the week after the
Board of Supervisors agreed
Monday that the city is en-
titled to sell the bell from
the old town clock.
The supervisors admitted what
lots of your older folks have
known for years-that the Town
Clock Association composed of
Mount Clemens people and not
the county owns the clock and
bell.
Before we prove their point
for the Oldsters, let's explain
that the bell will serve the
nations war effort. II seems
that bell metal is not only
difficult TO obtain but is also
vital to the allied cause. For
that reason Mrs. Paul Mckee,

WASHINGTON, May 14-(P)
"A warning from Secretary
Wickard that farmers may have
difficulty in filling wartime de-
mands for food and fiber faced
Senators today as they set out
to debate the annual farm funds
bill.
Critical shortages of labor,
farm machinery, fertilizer and
transportation caused the cabi-
nets agricultural leader to testi-
fy that he viewed the future
with considerable alarm"
1.-THE Department of Agricul-
ture is on a war basis" Wickard
told the Senate Appropriations
committee. His testimony was
made public as the committee
approved a bill carrying some
S680,000,000 cash and Sl85, 000,-
600 loans for a far flung farm
program during the fiscal year
beginning July /.
MEET ALL DEMANDS
Although tie nations farmers
have met all demands to date
with the exception of sugar and
a few other commodities that
are largely imported, Wickard
said the future was less rosy.
He explained that a lack of ship
ping had reduced possible sup
plies for England and OF h er
United Nations.
Lack of tires for trucks, auto
mobiles and even farm machin-
cry may also cause difficulty
Wickard said, adding II am
positive that we are going to see
within another year some very
tight situations as to labor and
if we have TO get along without
rubber tires our agricultural
effort is going to suffer serious
ly."
LESS THAN ESTIMATE
Senator Russell (D-Ga), who
has served as floor manager for
the farm appropriation bill for
seven consecutive years, point
ed out that it was less than
budget st j m t e and nearly
S45O,000,00O below the total
voted last year.
Most Of this reduction was in
a S212,000,000 item for parity
payments included last year but
this time because
most farm products are selling
near a parity level. If farmers
get a parity return" from mar
ket prices plus so-called "soil
conservation" payments, no par
ity payments need be made.
Other major reductions In
Guided S5O,000,000 Topped off the
soil conservation payment fund
and similar or larger amounts
from aid for low-income farmers
and surplus removal operations.
AS the bill reached the Senate,
il included numerous increases
for the Farm Security Admins

sion a week ago that the bell
go the way of all good bells
during war time.

The commission agreed but
decided the county had a pos
Sible claim TO the clock which
for years perched atop the old
county courthouse. Hence, the
action of the supervisors Mon
day.
Henry Chapoton, recogniz-
ed authority on city history,
recalls the campaign that
Mount Clemens residents put
on away back in 1889 to raise
funds for the old town clock.
AS Henry tells it, the late Mrs.
Lorraine Pratt 1nmen started
the campaign after a similar
movement had been successful
in Grand Rapids. A lecture
course, a grant from the county
board of supervisors and in
dividual donations ally
brought the clock fund near the
necessary 81, 400.
Henry says il was the late
Fred Eastman's contribution
that finally did the business.
And Fred, Henry claims, re-
GREETED the donation for years
because the clock kept him
awake at night by tolling the
hours.
The clock, most of you will
recall, had four faces and, short
ly before the old court house
was demolished a decade ago,
the official time depended on
which face you focused your
gaze. On some days the of
fetal time varied as much as
half an hour.
For 10 years the old town
clock was shunted from store
room to storeroom, its last
resting place being the old
waterworks building. We're
glad the clock can serve once
more. Proceeds from the sale,
incidentally, will help finance
the civilian defense effort
here.
