Paper Drive
Is Announced
Trucks Will Convoss
City Homes Wednesday

Growing demands for paper
today promoted members of the
Mount Clemens Salvage Com
mittee to address a plea to all
householders 10 cooperate by
plachI bupdleCi,ewspapers and
magazines on their front porches
Wednesday morning, Jan. 10, for
pickup by city trucks which will
canvass the entire community.
Mrs. Paul w. Mckee, chair
man of the Salvage Committee,
stressed the fact that the pick
ups next week will be the first
since last May and that a heavy
volume of paper is desired. She
pointed out that crumpled scrap
paper Is not now acceptable, nor
will loose papers be gathered up.
Bundled newspapers and maya
zines will, however, be collected
if placed in front of homes in
plain sight for drivers to locate.
The last of the 10 tons of pa
per collected in May has been
sold and steadily soaring prices
on waste paper reflect serious
need at this time. Following the
last pickup five tons of the
total 10 collected were stored
for several months in the City
Water Works building. All of it
has now been shipped to pro-
cessing plants.

County Control
Center Mapped
Civilian Defense
Units Cooperate

Coordination of emergency
Civilian Defense services
through a county control-center
was decided upon last night in
a meeting attended by 46 rep
resentat'ses of 16 Macomb coun-
ty communities in the Macomb
county building.
The representatives, assem-
bled by Sherwood j. Bennett,
chairman of the County Civilian
Defense Council, determined
upon a control through
which major emergency reports
can be filtered as the most eff
ficient way in which the prob
lem of possible catastrophes can
be properly handled.
Appeals will be made by in
dividual communities, through
the central control centers, when
outside assistance is required.
All inter-community defense
contacts, under the plan agreed
upon last night, will be chan
neled through the proposed
control-center, the location of
which has not yet been deter
mined upon. Organization of
personnel and location will be
undertaken shortly, Bennett
said.
AS a further effort to simpli-
fly civilian defense activities in
case of emergency the county
council plans to assemble fire
and police chiefs of the county
in the near future so that they
may select one of their own
group to serve as chief of all
police services and another as
