BUDGET ASSAHED

At the Bay City meeting. last
night, Fry asserted that Gov

year of Sl64, 90S,000, despite esti.
mates that revenue would not
exceed Sl30,000,000.

lodged the responsibility he
wangled from the people" Fry
said. Instead of taking hold
himself, he turned the budget
job over To what he called a
fact-finding committee. Ii was
committee of amateurs and II
produced an amateur budget.
Just FIVE months after glow
ing promises of economy and
despite estimates Si39, 900, =

were losing the war hut they
also thought they might just as
well eat, drink and be merry on

cerned about the difficulties OF

plicants of desirable accommo-
dationS in government dormi-
tories at S24.50 month, and
says that accommodations are
available also in private apart
ments and rooming houses.
Work in the Identification
Division is mainly concerned
with handling the records land
fingerprints of millions of per-
sons listed and indexed in the

The hope that Macomb Coun-
ty will respond more gener-
ously than ever before TO the
annual Infantile Paralysis and
March of Dimes appeal, due TO
increased costs of hospitalung
cases, was expressed today by
County Chairman Jack Flaacke.
In conjunction with co-chair-
man of the women's effort, Mrs.
Joseph NJ. Croma Jr., Flaacke
has canvassed every community
in Macomb County in an effort
to stimulate this years drive TO
furnish direct aid to many coun-
ty infantile paralysis cases, and
provide funds for research
work, in which the University
of Michigan is playing a major
part.
Active groups in Warren
Township and ST. Clair Shores
have already arranged dances
for Saturday night. The Shores
dance will take place at the vet
Grams memorial hall (Turner 5
summer home), and the Warren
Township benefit Will be at the
Fitzgerald USO, Nine Mile road,
on the same evening.
Most communities, as in
Mount Clemens, are relying on
collection boxes and March of
Dimes envelopes. for the fund
raising. The boxes are displayed
in many stores and business
places.
A particularly helpful phase
Of this years appeal, Flaacke
points out, are the theatre con-
tributions. Mount Clemens the
aires this week will show a
Greer Carson screen trailer in
behalf of the drive, and have CO.
oprated in allowing local girl
volunteers to collect funds from
theatre audiences.
