And Ranking Officers of American Units

As he reviewed one particular
group of American troops, the King
remarked to Maj. James D. Johnston
OF Barium Springs, N. c., commander
OF the Kings guard, that the mems
uniforms looked unusually clean. He
asked how they were able to do it
amid the dust and dirt which was
inevitable in all North African camps
Maj. Johnston replied promptly
With lots Of soap and plenty of
elbow grease, Your Majesty"
The King asked if these units had
suffered very heavy casualties in
the Tunisian fighting. He said he
had visited convalescent camp
the previous day and seen himself
what good care the wounded were
getting.
The King then placed a wreath
at the base Of flagstaff in the
American cemetery.

American combat teams gave a
demonstration of street fighting
and others went through special
training exercises. The men went
at it so hard one of the officers was
asked If they were putting extra

The officer replied: mo, sir, that S
the way they always do it. They
know they're pretty hot teams and

The Kings chauffeur during the

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
NORTH AFRICA, June 16 Delayed
Having visited the American Army
in training for invasion of Europe
and sampled American field rations
on the first two days Of his North
African tour, King George vi Of
England got around yesterday to
inspecting units of the combined
British and American fleet in the
Mediterranean and meeting the war
correspondents who covered the rout
OF the Axis in this theater.
For more than an hour the British
monarch, who flew to North Africa
on Saturday, walked slowly ur and
down vast space covered with
detachments of sailors and marines.
They were drawn up in long lines
that stretched all the way from the
city's warehouses down to the water
front.
Accompanying the King as he in
spected the fighting men were two
American officers, Vice Admiral H.
K. Hewitt and Rear Admiral j. l..
Hall.
Receives Correspondents.
The King then went aboard large
American warship and reviewed the
personnel. after which he entered
the captains cabin with some of the
ships officers for a 10-minute
breather.
From there he went to a British
warship, where more than 80 Ameri-
can and British correspondents were
drawn up to meet him.
Each correspondent introduced
himself, and from time to time as
the King walked down the line of
newsmen his face lighted up and he
exclaimed: Il know your name very
well. I have read many of your
dispatches"
Leaving headquarters on Monday
morning, the King spent nearly a
full day with an American Army,
where he met 1t. Gen. Mark w.
Clark, commanding general of the
United States 5th Army; 1t. Gen.
George S. Patton, jr., commander of
American combat forces in Tunisia;

March Sales
Wrong Basis

March food sales here are not
going to be a reliable basis on
which to set Ypsilanti food quotas,
directors of the Board of Com
meroe said in formal session here
Tuesday night. The directors or
dered their findings recorded in
the minutes and information sent
to OPA and other interested food
regulation boards.
Meat and dairy products were
named with particular emphasis
the directors pointing out that the
reason the March food sales will
not make a fair yardstick for mea-
surfing food allotments here is be-
cause the scarcity of those prod
ucts in the local market has made
it impossible to purchase even a
good percentage OF those foods
needed here.
The directors also recommended
that local tax authorities give
every possible aid TO Ypsilanti
schools faced with financial prob
lens. They approved a proposal
to recommend a flat increase at
once of 10 per cent in assessments
as a temporary remedy, and then
If necessary, TO ~reassess local prop
critics with a view to re~adjusting
assessments in the city and that
the board OF review and assessor
undertake a study of the needs and
best plans to relieve school finan-
cial problems.

iectors that the Ford Motor Co.

facilities here is progressing salts
f~actorily. and letters were read
from Gov. Harry Kelly, L. S. Rep
resentative Earl Kitchener and Ray
mond Foley in which they had in
formed the Board OF Commerce
that they did not approve under
mining the education services OF
State Normal College so
long as other ways and means
could be found 10 house war plant
workers.
The directors recommended that
President Donald NJ. Silkworth and
Secretary Paul Ungrodt attend the
April 1929 annual meeting OF the
OF Commerce OF the Unit
ed States in New York City.
President Silkworth announced
the receipt Of information from the
L. s. Treasury that a drive for
S500.0 900 war bond purchases would
be conducted here during April.
The Tuesday night meeting was
q changeover from noon meetings

directors plan TO meet regularly

Lanham Act
Funds Sought

Glen Mapes. Detroit Works Prog
ress Administration official, Tues
day approved the $4,000 applica-
ton for Lanham act funds present
ed TO him by School S%uperinten-
dent Ernest Chspelle and Princi-
pal Floyd Smith Of Woodruff
School.
The funds. II allotted, will be
used to continue the nursery
school at Woodruff and provide ex-
tended day care Of children there.
Application covering two other To-
cal centers was also filed with Mr..
Mapes. The request was based up
on surveys made by the schools
here. the United states Employ
ment Service, Local No. so, JAW
.CJO and sthe employment depart
msnt sfstne Fordk Motor 60, al
the Bomber Plant.
The program for nursery school
and extended day care at Wood
ruff school would be under the aus
pieces OF the city schools district,
and would have the same standard.
1t is planned that only qualified
persons will be placed in charge
and a definite program OF recrea-
ton and education will be follow
ed. so that the are will be more
than just that OF a custodian In
charge OF the children.
The entire cost OF the program,
IL final approval is given, will be
borne by the federal government
from Lanham act funds and will
not cost the school district any
money. But school facilities not
now being used by day classes will
be used. Mr.. Chapelle and Mr..
smith were assured by Mr.. Mapes
that funds could also be expected
for a summer rogram.
Parents would be required 10 pay
81 per week for the child care and
about Is cents per day for extend
ed care after school hours. The
federal government requires that
the community defray 50 per cent
OF the cost OF the project. This
will be satisfied by the 81 pay
ment per week OF parents and the
use OF school buildings.

Trying to
Beat Lewis In
Strike
Roosevelt Nav
Not Back Down
This Time

Washington, Mar. ftp The
government today is maneuvering
TO beat John l.. Lewis to the punch
on his threat to order 100000 men
from the soft coal pits on April /.
President Roosevelt backed down
under Lewis-called strikes in 1871.
But this time the Administration
gives every evidence Of digging its
toes in to meet Lewis and to beat
him-if possible.
Chairman William n. Davis OF
the War Labor Board, who has
been licked by Lewis before, ap.
parently intends to force a show
down on the issues involved in the
United Mine MoTkers' $2-a-day in
crease demand before il actually
reaches his board. He announced
last night that the board on next
Monday would consider and prob
ably vote upon American Fedora
ton OF Labor demands for an up
ward revision OF the Little Steel"
formulas Is per cent wage ceiling
and on other adjustments proposed
to establish q new wage stabilize.
ton policy.
1t is conceivable that the board
may be compelled TO break through
the ceiling to some extent. But all
other evidence indicates that there
will be no break-through sufficient
to allow a $2-a-day hike for the
miners when their case finally
reaches the board.
II the board decision Monday Is
to compromise Just sufficiently TO
maintain the support Of. AL and
clio memberss ityyr1xf@da bessfn~x'
strong posttfop against Lewis. He
would find himself opposed. not
only by the War Labor Board but
presumably by the two major labor
organizations whose leadership he
has equally denounced and de-
spised.
Davis acknowledged that the
Little Steel formula was estab-
llshed in May, 1912, and therefore
could not take into account cost Of
living increases since then. AFL
members OF the board who have de-
manded upward Lewiston OF the
formula charged in their petition
for review that prices and living
costs had not been controlled as
had wages. But Davis told a press
conference last night that he
thought the effort TO control prices
and living costs had been remark
ably successful-when you consider
the overall picture"
Meantime, WLB member Roger
Lapham snapped: III the AFL
wants initiation. they should ask
Congress for IT," recalling that 1t
was Congress that passed the anti.
initiation act. And in the House,
Chairman Andrew j. May. D.. Ky,
