is also in England and the brothers
met up with each other in March
and had grand reunion.
Before being transferred to Eng
land Richard was stationed for
sometime in Iceland, where he was
married. Before being transferred
to England he thought he would be
better satisfied if his wife and
young son would come to Hagers-
town and make their home for the
duration with his parents, where
they are now. When we were talk
ing to Richards sister we said that
the youngster must receive plenty
of attention and she remarked, "you
have no idea, he has just taken over
the house"

0PA MEAT ACTION

WASHINGTON, May 3-REAp-
plause was the general reaction in
Congress today to the removal of
most meat from the ration list but
some members saw political i'm
plications in the move and many
of those from the West said it
should have been done long before.
'This was to be expected, with
an election coming on" Senator
Bushfield (R. SD said. There
has never been any necessity for
rationing meat and there IS not
any now"
Calling the step "a very graft
flying indication of progress" Sena'
tor Brewster R.-Me. } added:
whether it is motivated by eco
nomics or politics, it is altogether
to the good'
Senator O'Manoney ID. -Wyo.)
said he would have preferred te
see the points taken off all meats
saying the fancy cuts still rationec
represent 80 per cent Of the tota
meat supply.
THE cattle population" O'Ma
honey said, has overrun facilities
for storage SO, in justice to the
cattlenen, the fullest possible dis.
tribution should be permitted. The
move is, however, step in the
right direction"
Senator Johnson O.-Colo.) said:
1.-THE step should have been taken
long ago. I see no particular OBJ
lection to retaining the point re-
uuirements on choice cuts of beef.
The effect, perhaps, will be to slim
ulate interest in tn pointless
meats
Senator Thomas .-Okla) said
the action was belated and added:
THE price has been going down
and meat has been spelling"
Senator Hayden ID. -Ariz) said
the OPA action fought to relieve
the situation' and added II am
glad to know our recommendations
were followed"

whether to be happy to be walking
the streets of his home town, even
though a spinal brace makes him
stand as erect as a grenadier, or
whether to be distressed at his re-
lection from his countrys further

And further entangling his emo

ladder from which he was working
had not been broken he would have
been sent overseas with the crew

that crew, he recently learned-had

Thomas Discusses
Home Rule Effect
on Government

How Will Proposal No. Effect
Local Government" was the topic on
which Francis S. Thomas addressed
members of the Trenton Junior
Chamber of Commerce Tuesday
night.
The following excerpts were taken
from his talk:
County government is the root
of state government, both in its
function and structure. 1t is made
up of many units of municipal and
township governments. If We change
the present form of county govern
ment to municipal form of gov
eminent, we will be duplicating
services that are now being done
locally.
IF this county municipal govern
ment gradually crowds out our 10
cal municipal services, the next move
will be to annex us to Detroit These
are some of the things that We peo-
pie outside Detroit should seriously
consider"
"Detroit's tax rate, when it became
a streamlined government in 1919
was s18.55 and has risen to S28.O2
as of last year. The tax rate of
Wayne county in 1919 was s5.45
and has been reduced to $500 as of
last year. 1t will be less this year.
The bonded debt of Detroit July
l, 1919 was less than s31 ,00O,O 900. AS
of July /. 1913 it had risen to over
$500, 100000. The bonded debt of
Wayne County in 1919 was 81 ,807,-
600 and today is reduced to a less
amount. This speaks well for past
economy in county government COM
pared to Detroits streamlined gov
eminent.
I'VE people have not forgotten
how many of the Detroit municipal
officials were sent to Jail for cor
ruption. Even the chief executive
of one of its administrations is now
in Jail.
Streamlining government will not
stop corruption just as long as men
who are corrupt within themselves
are elected to public office.
If selfish Detroit minority group
gets control of the Gilman coun-
Gil and forces excessive expenditures
beneficial to Detroit, it will raise the
county tax rate. Under the Is mill
