Letter Box

To the Editor:
Referring to the report of the
meeting of the Board of Super
visors in yesterdays paper, T.
H. Scott wishes to point out that
he receives his appointment
from the Tax ALLEGATION Board
and not from the Board OF Su-
pervisors and that the Tax AL
location also set his salary which
cannot be changed by the Board
Of Supervisors.
Also the Board of Supervisors
cannot cut the remuneration OF
the Tax Board commissioners to
$500 as an amendment to the
Tax Limitation Act allows up to
20 meetings annually per men,
Der and this can mean over $500.
Personally feel that Macomb
County Is and always has been
extremely we'll served by its
Tax ALLEGATION Board and that
costs of same have been reason
able. While the expense has
ranged from $1,000 to $1,000 per
annum, it has been as high as
$4,000 in some other counties.
The Tax ALLEGATION Board has
always tried to be cooperative
with all supervisors and Off
Gals of the county, out regret
fully I have to say that this at
titude is not reciprocated by ev-
eryone. i.
It would be interesting to
know who il is that seems to be
frequently trying to create fric-
ton between the two Boards.
r, n. SCOTT

chew carpets and may have
threatened to behead couple
dozen generals. But after reflec-
ton, he recalled that Cd he
must not antagonize the army
and (2) he must preserve these
generals for further use in a
still-active war.
So he called in the generals,
suggested that by switching
around or taking brief vaca-
tions, they might freshen their
outlook and start pitching fire
balls to the enemy again.
ITS A PERFECT SPOT
FOR SOME NERVE-WAR"
The generals, conscious OF
their own failure, agreed. Then,
as they all quaffed from the
wassail bowl, willy Joseph Goeb-
bells edged into the circle with
another proposition.
Its a perfect spot for some
nerve-war," he said. Lets tell
the enemy big purge is on. 1t
will bloat them with overconfi-
dence; make their workers slop-
by and careless. And we don't
have to let the German people
know anything about any of it."
And thus, p r h a ps, was 1t
done.
In October, 1941, all foreign
correspondents in Berlin were
called to the Propaganda Min
isterium to hear Reich Press
Chief Dietrich tell how the Rus
sian army and air force had been
annihilated and no longer exist
ed as fighting unit.
For that speech, Dietrich was
flown to Berlin direct from Hit
ler's CHG. The whole thing had
been Matched up in the bough-
covered train on a blind siding
where Hitler, far from the front
lines, is still playing Napoleon.
Every German official of any
standing at all knew that Diet
trichs story was a typical pho
ny, designed to cast despair over
enemy camps.
Eventually Hitler and his gen.
erals will break. When that hap
pens, the explosion will be so
thundrerous that we can't doubt
it. Then we can safely disregard
anything that Berlin's usually
reliable sources have to say on
the subject.

Grange Eyes
Problems
Prepares to Act
on Issues

ADRIAN, Mich, Oct. 28-R
- The Michigan State Grange
prepared today to act on q va
riety of proposals ranging from
national prohibition for the du-
ration to repeal of the State
weight tax.
Heated debate was in prospect
for some of the resolutions be-
fore the annual convention. One
which received immediate ap-
probation at its introduction by
Judge Irving J. Tucker was an
expression Of gratitude to serv-
ice men and a pledge to home
front, support.
Two resolutions up for action
opposed constitutional revision
and the home run amendment.
Others asked a higher priority
rating on farm implements, CELL
ings on labor wages if ceilings
are placed on farm products,
and a work or fight" program
for the nation.
Rationing of alcoholic bever-
ages in the event food is ration
ed also was proposed in reso-
luton. Another proposal was for
the return Of Michigan to Cen
trail Standard Time.
The Weight Tax issue caused
extended dispute at the Sault
Ste. Marie convention last year.
At that time q proposal was in
troduced to reduce the tax form
IS to rs cents a hundredweight.
Significant at the present con-
vention was the virtual absence
of a contest among cities for
next years meeting. The reduced
interest was laid to the housing,
feeding and transportation prob
lens.

All Hunlaniiy
President Stotes
Poets Wide Aims

WASHINGTON, Oct. 28-(R
The world had President
Roosevelt's renewed assurance
today that the Atlantic charter
applied to all humanity"
It became known as the AT
lantic Charter" the President ex-
planned at yesterdays press con-
ference, because the Atlantic
ocean was the scene of the 1941
meeting at which it was promul-
gated by himself and Prime Min
lister Churchill.
Mr.. Roosevelt authorized re-
porters to quote him directly to
lend emphasis to his reply 10
Wendell WILKES assertion Mon
day night that many people Of
Asia and Eastern Europe were
bewildered and anxious about
Americas war aims and were
asking: What about a world
charter"
The charter declares among
other things that the signatory
governments, which include Rus
STA and China and all the other
United Nations, respect the
right of all peoples to choose the
form of government under which
they will live; and they wish to
see sovereign rights and self
government restored to those
who have been forcibly deprived
of Them"
At the. same press conference
Mr.. Roosevelt disclosed that
Great Britain and the United
States were cooperating in plans
for economic and social better
ment of the smaller islands of
the West Indies.
These smaller islands, exclud-
ing Puerto Rico, Cuba, Haiti and
the Dominican Republic, have
been liability to the nations ex-
ercising sovereignty over them
Britain, the United States, the
Netherlands, France, Colombia
and Venezuela, he said, and he
hoped that they could be brought
into an economic and social
team.
He spoke Of measures to make
them self-sufficient economical
ly, to inaugurate compulsory ed
ucation, extend the right OF
franchise, and expand self-gov-
eminent.
