BATTLE CREEK, April 8. -
Farmers in Calhoun County last
year received return of approx
imately S18 an acre. figures re-
leased in Washington revealed
today.
The Washington figures were
CLEANED from a correlation of data
furnished by public and private
agencies on agricultural subjects.
They announced the farm income
in the county to be S7,017,000 or a
rough average of 1890 per farm.
That figure represents gross in
come because it includes money
paid in sides as against
earned income from the sale OF

Rocks, Z Years
Justice Peace,

Defeated in Hsmtramek
Election. to Devote Time
TO Law and Boys Club
BY VERA BROWN

For the first time in u years,
Judge Arthur j. Rocks, 80. founder
OF Hamtramck's famous Boys
Club, is no longer an official OF
his town.
The fighting Irish attorney, a
Republican and a Protestant In
Catholic Polish Hamtramck, who
has held the office of justice OF
the peace since he was 20, has
gone down TO defeat.
CLUB CARRIES ON
Said the judge today, smiling:
1.-THE people of Hamtramck
have been good to me for many
years. Tell my friends that our
Hamtramck Boys Club Is still
going on. Right now 200 of my
senior members, between the
ages of 20 and 25 are already

1.-The election results followed
my ruling In the Ford riot case.
my former law instructor,
Prosecutor Duncan &. McCrea,
brought the case before me and
my fellow jurist, Judge Nicholas
s. GronkOwski.
FORD MOTOR CASE
"The case was an assault and
battery charge against the Ford
Motor Company. Obviously,
personal action cannot be
brought against n corporation,
so I threw out the case, while
GronkOwski ruled the other
way"
In his court room at the time
Rocks said were scores of JAW
Clio members who created a dis.
turbance after his ruling.
'"The men did not understand
that my ruling was legal ne
cessity, did not alter the status
of the labor fight. There was
nothing a jurist could DO but to
rule as i uiO.
Looking back on the last 12
years, I am prOudest of the fact
that some Of my boys Of the club
are sergeants In our police de-
partment here, and that we've
sent so many OF them to the
army. Right now I'm going to
turn my attention to my law
practice and the club. That will
be work enOugth for me-"
GIVES UP OFFICE JULY
Judge Rocks relinquishes his Of

Jeffries Returns,
Goes in HuddIe
0nCity' sBudget
Opposes Salvage Plant
as UnfeasibIe, Backs
3 Pct. Economy Move
BY HAROLD sCHACHERN

Mayor Edward J. Jeffries Jr.,
looking sun tanned and fit. is
back from his Florida vacation
today and engulfed in a rapidly
rising food of overdue city bust
ness.
Grounded twice in his air trip
back to Detroit, the mayor finally
arrived by train and went directly
10 his office for a quick huddlc
with city officials on the budget
changes made by common council
during his absence.
One of the first items on the list
OF new proposals. and one which
met his immediate objection, was
the proposal to build a 100000
salvage plant at the incinerator.
WAR ABsORBs SCRAP
81 don't see what use this Will
be to u.s." the mayor said. with
>Zthe war absorbing all the scrap,
we are going to have an ever
decreasing amount of scrap 10
salvage anyway. I'm from Mis-
souri,, and you're also going 60
have to show me where II will
save US any money"
The mayor went along" with a
mandatory departmental saving
of 3 per cent instead of ? per cent,
but said:
I'm agreeable to any econ
omy, make 10 5 or 6 per cent IL
YOU like. But think we are
only kidding ourselves II we
think we can do IL. It's going
TO be hard enough TO get 2 per
cent, let alone s.
MATERIALS IN DOUBT
When asked about the proposal
10 spend S420.0 600 for added gar
bage incineration, Jeffries said:
81 don't think we can get the
necessary priorities 10 build an
incinerator."
Among the subjects upon which
the mayor was not prepared to
comment were.
. What is he going TO do about
the Sojourner Truth problem?
. What is he going 10 do about
his civilian defense Job?
. What are his personal plans
for the future?
81 view the future with fear
and trembling" he said. "but I
have no definite plans. II I can
finish what I now have on hand.
I shall be proud as a peacock"

FOR 8,505 STUDENTS

Including a total of 189 class
rooms, the new construction will
accommodate an estimated S.505
students which heretofore have
been damned into the city's pres
ent school buildings.
Warren f. Bow, deputy superin-
tendent of schools. volunteered
I h a Detroit's building program
has been sadly behind since the
depression"
Need for such an expansion. he
said, stems from the migration OF
the city's populace TO outlying dis
tricts and from the infiltration OF
defense labor.
The new high school. 10 be To-
Gated at Thatcher and Wyoming
avenues, will be the 4S-classroom

Seek Volunteers
For Observation.
Warning Service
Plane Spoilers in Every
Township Wanted; to be
Under Army Regulations.

An aircraft warning service (plane
spotting) will be fully organized here
in the near future as a part of the
statewide system now being set up
under the direction of U. S. Army
officials Plans call for an observa-
ton post in every township in the
state, with private citizens being
asked to volunteer so that a 24-hour
day watch, seven days a week,
can be maintained.
Lieut.. R. D. Whitney of the Min
nesota State Guard is in charge of
organizational work in this territory
and is conducting series of meetings
to explain details and get volun-
teers. He states that the spotting
service is very necessary and highly
important. The spotting personnel
should be trustworthy citizens, Sc
lected without regard to race, color
or creed, must be able to speak Eng
lish and use telephone. Both men
and women may volunteer.
Will Explain Setup.
Two coming meetings are one at
the Sand Creek schoolhouse Friday
evening, July 10, and another at the
Bruno schoolhouse Friday evening
of this week in connection with the
regular air raid warden class being
held there for northeast Pine county
that night. Anyone interested or
willing to volunteer for spotting duty
may attend these meetings, and other
meetings are being scheduled for
other localities in Pine county.
Briefly, the plane spotter service
is being promoted in Minnesota as a
safety measure to guard against pos
sible airplane bombings of bridges,
docks, mines, plants and shipping
facilities. 1t will be based on the
same system that brought about the
defeat of the German air force in the
Battle of Britain through the fur
nishing of information to the air
raid precaution services in time for
them to take necessary precautions.
Further information on the spotter
service here will be published later.
