needed bell metal in the bell of
the old court house clock will
likely be turned over to the War
Production Board, Salvage Di-
vision, the city commission de-
cided last night.
On the advice of City Attor-
ney Bert v. Nunneley, the COM
missioners decided to bring the
question Of ownership before
the Board Of Supervisors at its
next meeting. While Mount
Clemens residents raised 81 $50
to buy the bell more than so
years ago, it had slways hung
atop the old court house.
Mayor Donald r. Westendorf
brought up the bell for discus
sion at the request of Mrs. Paul
w. Mckee. city salvage drive
chairman, he said.
The bell and clock now lie In
the old waterworks building.
