Idea probed
Junk Buyers Fail
to Pay on Delivery

Deputy Sheriffs said today
they were convinced that three
Negro junk men investigated
Saturday had no connection with
a pair being sought for victim
izing County residents.
The deputies were called by
Theophiel Van Panel of 1881
Fourteen Mile DAD, near Fraser,
in a dispute over payment with
the junk men.
Van Panel had sold them
scrap metal ; counting to $50
and received only $50. He re-
fused to allow them to cart the
material away until full pay
ment was received.
Joe Toney, Negro of Detroit,
and owner of the truck, told
Deputies he would be unable 20
make full payment until he had
sold the scrap in Detroit and as
sured them he would pay the
additional $50 as soon as posi-
BILE.
A pair of Negro junk men are
being sought throughout the
County for taking scrap metal
without permission and not Of

brands and special grades will
be in the market, as always, and
the price ceilings will be as
many as there are items to SELL"
The temporary ceilings apply
to approximately 80 per cent of
the pork items sold and are
equal to the highest wholesale
price charged during the period
March 3 to 7. Since that time the
average price of live hogs has ad-
vanced more than 20 cents per
100 pounds but wholesale pork
cuts have shown varying trend,
although livestock men express
ed belief no item has risen above
the ceiling. Wholesale fresh
pork loins here are off as much
as 2 cents a pound in some
cases.
The butcher shops the re-
tail end of the pork trade -
unaffected directly by the OPA
order, will be governed in es-
tablishing prices at their count
tiers by the same factors they
have always had to consider,
such overhead items as cost of
store operation and materials.
The only certainty will be that
the pork they buy will not be
higher than the ceiling.

to meet requirements OF certain
tasks, such as carrying a man
down a ladder or shoveling de-
bris at great speed.
The investigators began work
in February with an analysis of
three principal physical weak
nesses in the general population
the abdomen, the feet, and the
shoulders. While they don't ex-
pect to have their data ready be-
fore May, DR.. Steinhaus gave
out these preliminary findings
today:
Develop the abdomen mus
cles by voluntarily contracting
them. II can be done any time or
place. You don't need a gym.
These muscles are important in
running, lifting or shoveling.
when you walk, push the
legs out straight. Put the heels
down first, transfer the body
weight to the outer border of the
feet, and then push off with all
five toes. Correct walking helps
to develop the ability to run
faster and longer.
'To help develop the shoulder
muscles, pull the shoulders down
and back and push the chest out,
instead of throwing them back
and raising them"
