HE Is OUR SON

Fondling a reprint of the picture
which appeared in the Times, they
both agreed that "he is our son.
Kenneth was indicted into the
army shortly after the draft
started in 1871 Later. he was
allowed to enter the air forces in
California.
He was sent 10 Manila shortly
before Pearl Harbor. The last
word the parents had from their
only child was a Cablegram on
Dec. II. 1871. The cablegram said
simply that he was feeling fine"

Within the next few weeks, you
are going to see girls in natty uni
forms driving the smaller Grey
hound buses around Detroit
outskirts.
p. L. Radcliffe. general traffic
manager for the lines, said today
that he was selecting women care
fully to augment men drivers for
emergencies.
The girls already are acting as
conductors aboard the giant 100
passenger trailers converted from
automobile manufacturing days.
They are doing a good job, Rad
cliffe says.
Women can never drive the
larger buses but, IL they could
relieve men, on the smaller buses
and carry on the shuttle lines,
we would have an added re-
serve of drivers" he said.
CONVERTED EASILY
The trailerS which once hauled
automobiles out of Detroit were
converted easily.
Said Radcliffe:
I'VE got as many converted
as we could. Then, we decided
we'd use them wherever the
bulge came. Our first problem
was down river-tOward Tren-
ton. So we threw the first "a
into that service.

Supply Of Meat
AT Willow Run
Is Pei. Of 1941's

Although population In the Will
low Run area has increased 40 per
cent, available meat is only 25 per
cent of 194l supplies, it was
charged today in the OPA's in
veStigation of Washtenaw County
butcher shops.
There is n serious shortage
OF all types Of meat and an
acute lack of beef" says Charles
NJ. ClapSaddle, district meat ra-
/ tioning representative. MANY
butchers only have meat TO sell
one or two days a week"
ClapSaddle attended a protest
meeting of butchers in the Ann
Arbor Chamber OF Commerce.
butchers revealed that they
.trucked in their scanty supplies
secretly and cut il up at night so
that customers would not snap it
up before it was ready for sale.
EAT IN RESTAURANTS
Hundreds OF war workers
who live In traiIers cannot buy
meat at the stores and must
therefore, eat in restaurants
which are somehow successful In
getting meat" Clapsaddle said.
81 was told that, on recent
Sunday. when the restaurants =
were closed. five huge lunch
wagons from the bomber plant
were hooked TO trailers and
hauled 10 a trailer camp so that
the people there could buy some
thing TO eat.
"The vast floating population
OF the area complexities the Is
sue" Clapsaddle asserted.
Definite reasons for the short-
age have not yet been revealed.
PACKERS are not shipping
enough meat into the area" said
w. Fart FitZgerafd,, food
rationing representative. But
that is not the complete picture.
We are making every effort to
get down To bed rock on the
situation and present remedy
as quickly as possible .-----
SLAUGHTERHOUSES CLOSED
Other reasons that contribute to
the bare Shelves in the butcher
shops are the shutting down of
several slaughterhouses in Ann
Arbor; closing up of a number of
tpaekinghouses in Detroit which
formerly supplied the region with
part of its meat; and the de-
creaSed number of cattle reaching
the Detroit market.
Thousands residents the
area are war workers and the
lefects of short ration of meat
on the health of these men and
women is of concern to govern
ment officials.
a second meeting which all
butchers in Washtenaw County
are expected to attend has been
called for Monday evening, April
20, in Ann Arbor.
Angus c. Doane, head of the
state office of the u. S. Depart
,ment of Agriculture's Food Dis
,tribution Administration, attended
the meeting at Ann Arbor.
He said he was advising his i'm
mediate Superiors of the shortage
but would not comment.

committee would Immediately at
tract the attention of those who are
interested in making New York the
worlds finest city and such a COM
mittee would go a long way toward
restoring the confidence of the bet
ter class of people of New York in
Harlem.
Don't let anybody kid you into
thinking that steps are not needed
to restore that confidence which
was destroyed by the orgy of hood
lumism few months ago. Ask any
colored real estate dealer, insur-
ance broker, or prospective home
purchaser who desires to get a
loan from a bank, if you want to
find out whether Harlem was hurt
by this spectacle of rampant van
dalism. There are still a few who
think it was smart, but they will
learn before many months have
passed.
I am of the opinion that 800 of
all the merchants in Harlem would
be willing to aid in improving the
appearance of their business estab-
lishments. I am of the opinion that
something might be done with the
unsightly and depressing Lafayette
Theatre. I am of the opinion that
if a real effort were made, Harlem
could be transformed from a mu-
nicipal eyesore to place of in
spiration and beauty.
Well, what's holding US? Let's
go!

groups created for the same pur-

no efforts to aid them in what I
consider one of the most worthy

has large real estate interests in
Harlem and therefore vital stake
in its rehabilitation, and Henry
Craft, Secretary of the Y.M.C.A.,
who not only has the social per-
spective but engineering training,
and Vertner Tandy, architect, who
is creating the plans for Harlem's
new low-cost housing development

representative of the Harlem As
