Commissioner G.. Donald Ken
nedy, the City Commission de-
cided last night.
After Mayor Donald r. West
endorf pointed out that the Sell

will greatly increase Gratiot
avenue traffic, the commission
authorized City Attorney Bert
v. Nunneley to draft the reso-
lutions.
Kennedy, during his campaign
for election two years ago, pro-
missed the early completion of
the highway, which originally
was to cross the Clinton, thus
providing a route around the
city.
Changing conditions due to
the war, however, forced aban-
donment of the project.

THROUGH

SMASH THROUGH
The break through, acknoWl-
edged by the Soviet information
bureau last midnight, was &C
complished by great numbers of
German troops, heavily sup
ported by tanks, the dispatches
said.
The Russians were reported to
have counterattacked desper-
ately in an attempt to seal the
breach in their lines, but were
forced to fall back to new posi-
tons.
(The German radio indicated
that the Nazi forces might be
less than ITO miles from Grozny,
reporting that advance elements
had reached the region of the
Terek river" which flows into
the Caspian northwest of Groz-
ny, in their thrust through
Cherkessk.)
Sixty miles northwest of
Cheressk, the information bu-
reau's midday bulletin said, Rus
sian forces were fighting fierce
battles in the Maikop oil fields
with enemy tanks and infantry
thrusting toward Tuapse.
Red Star, Soviet army organ,
said that almost all the Ger
man attacks were repulSed,"
but acknowledged that the Nazis
had advanced in one sector, fore
ing the Russians TO withdraw to
strategic positions in the hills.
The Germans were reported
TO have launched repeated as
Saults in an attempt TO dislodge
the Russians from their new po-
sitions, only to be beaten off
with heavy losses.

The city will stand the cost
of collection, Silbar said, and,
in return, will receive SIS per
ton FOB Pittsburgh, from the
defining concern. He expressed
confidence that the city might
realize a small profit from the
enterprise.
Silbar warned hat the first
collection will likely : small
but on subsequent pickups a
total of IA tons per month can
be expected.
Cans must be thoroughly
cleaned, the ends removed and
folded inside once the cans are
flattened. This process is neces-
sary, Silbar explained, to con-
serve space on freight cars.

John Dodqe
Near Death
Police Probe
Lost Eseopode

DETROIT, Aug. Is - up -
Death approached today for
John Duval Dodge, playboy son
Of the late multi-millionaire
John F. Dodge as police inves-
tigated the escapade which led
to his arrest and thence to a
bed in a public hospital.
Unconscious for more than "a
hours, Dodge, 43, was being ad-
ministered oxygen at Receiving
Hospital where he had been
taken following his collapse in
q police precinct station early
yesterday. DR.. Donald M. Nor
rill, hospital superintendent,
said Dodge had little chance to
live.
Two policemen arrested Dodge
in a Van Dyke place home at
$40 a. m. yesterday after a
neighbor woman reported she
had seen a man pry a screen
from window Of the home. At
the police station Dodge col
lapsed and was removed to the
hospital, where he was found to
be suffering from cerebral
hemorrhage.
Patrolman Alfred Amman,
one of the arresting officers,
said Dodge was intoxicated and
could not explain his presence
in the house beyond saying he
was "a guest" Dodge himself
had opened the door to the Of
ficers.
Both Prosecutor William E.
Bowling and Police Inspector
John A. Whitman said they did
not believe Dodge had entered
the home forcibly but that the
door had been opened to him by
another person.

where five observers reported
the blackouit as 1.-The best we've
had so far" Present at the post
in addition to Harold Bugs"
Lindsey, city civilian defense
commander, and Carl Trun, chief
county air raid warden, were
Sheriff Jacob F. Theut, county
civilian defense commander and
two army officers-Major E. f.
Hebb of Selfridge and 1t. Col.
M. j. Gearing, detailed here from
Detroit.
CONTROL ROOM
The control room, activated
during the blackout, functioned
perfectly according to Lindsey.
A few car violators, in Warren
Township as we'll as in the st.
Clair Shores community, were
reported. In Mount Clemens, the
Metal Products Co., defense
plant, was the most conSpicu-
lousy lighted building.
Rural areas throughout the
county responded perfectly, de-
spite the fact that the hours Of
the drill had been shifted sud-
denly, on Tuesday.
Throughout the state, the test
apparently went off with equal
effectiveness = barring defense
plants. Tragedy marred the eff
fort in Monroe, however.
Deputy Sheriff Joseph Heff-
man, a member of a Civilian
Defense Police Auxiliary there,
died in the flaming wreckage
of an automobile after it had col
lided in the blackout with an
other car five miles west Of
Monroe.
Both cars were proceeding
without headlights at 1905 p.
m. on North Custer road. Hoff-
man. about As, resident of
Raisinvillc Township, was a
passenger in one car. The driv-
ers escaped with injuries.
Follow deputies said they did
know whether Hoffman was on
blackout duty at the time.
Captain Donald S. Leonard OF
the state police, who heads Mich
igan's Civilian Defense, said the
states blackOut was success
full"
THE reports so far, from the
Thumb District TO the Ohio
boundary line" Leonard said,
ARE excellent"
CITY A VIOLATOR
Leonard pointed out that
Grand Rapids, experiencing its
first blackout, produced results
that were "heartening"
1t turned out that the city of
Grand Rapids itself was vio-
lator. The Illuminated clock on
the city hall was slow, and the
light Of its dial was not extin-
guisr 1 until 1904 pm.
Two boy inmates at the State
Vocational School in Lansing
took advantage OF the darkness
TO run away - wearing only
their nightshirts.
Governor Van Wagner made
radio speech curing the black
out in which he called for more
Civilian Defense volunteers.
Edward Reaume, Crosse
lie police chief, reported today
that an exhaustive search was
underway for man who is
thought to have climbed over
a fence surrounding the US.

Mohandas K. Gandhi'S Six-day-
old campaign against British
rule in India today, but there
were indications that the mass

was slowly fizzling out.
Dispatches from Bombay, the
center of disorder, said the out
breaks there were fewer and
smaller.
TROOPS STAND GUARD
Reinforced police and troops
stood guard in many cities, cur
few restrictions were clamped
down, and professions and meet
ings were forbidden.
The worst rioting developed
yesterday at Nagpur, where
Gandhi's followers in door

standing on your head, or flying
straight and level. You strained
your eyes to make out some ia
miliar landmark, but it was vir-
tually in vain. Only a slim sill

ed Gratiot. The Clinton River,
which many assumed to be a
broad silver band leading di-
rectly to the city, was absent
from the party at 1000 feet,
though on moonlight night, it
might have been different. So
was Lake st. Clair.
New Haven was black. New
Baltimore was invisible and no
lights were seen in the direction
of Richmond. Selfridge Field, a
possible target of enemy bomb
ers, stood out like your shadow
in the dark; only guesswork
could locate its position. Off to-
wards Van Dyke and Utica, a
string of lights shown, probably
those of defense plant.
A few lights, of course, were
visible. 1t takes but a small
flicker to make white pin
prick in the blackness. Gratiot
avenue was plainly visible by
the winking. stop-and-go lights.
The pilot lights of the Clinton
River were as evident as those
of the three or four autos which
were spotted with full head
lights on. Even the "blackout"
lights of an emergency car in
Mount Clemens were easily
sighted. One car, by winking its
lights could signal a fleet of
enemy planes with no difficulty;
any light with more voltage than
a FREELY can be easily spotted
from the air.
WINDSOR PERFECT
While the blanket Of gloom
which lay over Mount Clemens
was not to be penetrated easily,
it could not match that of Wind
sor. The Canadian city had an
blackout which made De-
troit, with its defense plants
full blast, look like a
carnival in full chorus. Wind
sor was entirely BACKED out,
perfect example for its sister
cities across the river.
The flight was made possible
by Sheriff Jacob F. Theut,
through arrangements with the
Floyd Floren Flyers, of JOY Air

Lady Esther Powder does and
here's the reason! It's made new

the government has granted an ex-
elusive patent on it! This method
makes the difference between what

Texture is much finer!
You see, Lady Esther Face Powder

and occasionally eaten by adults
to relieve the monotony of a rail-
road journey. Its flavor is more
pudding like than piquant. Though
poets have celebrated the grape
and the pomegranate, they waste
no words ON the banana.
Bananas Up
Now, however, the banana is in
a class with golden caviar. Passing

''Sure it is," said Benny with an
eager nod. "How about some nice
fresh rozzberries?"
But on the way home | got to
thinking it over. Anything that
cost 20 cents a pound, | reasoned,
must be pretty good. No doubt
there were hidden virtues in

" HE last war, with its after
math of Prohibition, pro-
- duced a new generation OF
drinkers. The grilled door of the
speakeasy opened to old and young
alike - and very much alike they
proved to be. Capitalists and collie
gians shared the same dubious dis
tillation, and the Colonel's lady
and Judy O'Grady were sisters
over the gin. Thousands who had
been quite content with root beer
or ginger ale, were coaxed into
their cups by the fascination of the
forbidden; bending the elbow was
gesture of defiance before it be-
came a conditioned reflex.
And now it looks as if the pres
ent war might produce new gen.
Grafton of eaters. Deprivation has
altered our gastronomic stand
ards and given us a fresh set OF
appetites. The gourmet who once
scorned anything less than a reg
istered brook trout, now goes into
ecstasies over a humble unpedi-
greed Norwegian sardine. He can
still get the brook trout when
ever he wants it; but the sar-
dine is one of a rapidly dimin-
ishing stock, and its tin casket
is guarded as carefully as any
miser's hoard. Authentic Swiss

very well do without. But that
doesn't keep us from desiring them
with an urgency We have seldom
felt before. For instance, l never
used to care much for pistachio
nuts. They always seemed to be
mostly shell, and the insides tasted
