Excessive Award
BelIevilIe Project
Ordered Abandoned

DETROIT-A motion for an
order TO dismiss the condemna-
ton case of the proposed Belle
vile Lake Park was filed in
Judge Clyde I. Webster's Court
today by John p. OHara, attor
ney for the Huron-Clinton Met
ropolitan Authority.
The authority's decision to
abandon the proposed park site
was based on the high prices in
Guided in the jurys award of
S779, 492.29 for ITO acres, on the
north side of Belleville Lake
from Haggerty Road to Rawson-
Vile Road and south of Chase
Road. In a resolution passed by
the board of Commissioners of
the authority, Saturday, it was
pointed out that the award is
approximately five times great
er than the present assessed val
uation of the property; that GER
tain improvements in the vicin-
ity Of the proposed site have
caused an abnormal initiation of
land prices in that area; and that
other lands suitable for the pur-
pose, which will serve all of the
people in the metropolitan area
Of Detroit expected to benefit by
the Belleville Lake project, are
available at lower prices more
consistent with the policy of the
authority.

Eye Rates for
Sewage5eViee
East Detroit Rejects
Harper PROPOSED

Officials of five South Ma
comb communities involved in
the Lakeshore Interceptor drain
age district. this week scanned
rate schedules devised by the
Drain Office for water users in
the communities of East Detroit,
Warren Township, Warren, Vii
lage of Center Line, and ST.
Clair Shores.
East Detroit, which alone had
held municipal meeting since
the rates were set and released
by Drain Commissioner William
c. Harper, offered the only re-
action 10 the cost-Sharing plan.
The East Detroit council rejected
the rates, and asked to confer
with Harper shortly.
ELABORATE PROGRAM
The elaborate rate schedule
drawn up by Harper and Deputy
Arnold F. Rockensuess proposed
a charge Of SIS per year for users
of 1000 cubic feet of water;
S7.4O a year for 5000 cubic
feet, up to S4275 year for
100000 cubic feet and S45 year
for 100000 cubic feet, the
schedule covering every type OF
user.
East Detroit protested that
the rates were too high for low
bracket water users, and too
moderate for the big users. They
also objected that big users, UNI
like small clients, would not
pay maintenance charges.
East Detroit officials infor-
mally agreed that flat charge
of S1.25 for tap Quarterly in
their system, would be agree
able, and Harper, whose figure
for this service would be only
six cents higher, said today that
he felt sure a compromise agree
ment will be reached.
He plans to discuss the mat
ter with all communities, pos
sibly at a Joint meeting. because
any agreed rates would have to
be equitable in all communities
alike.
A protest regarding present
Lakeshore Interceptor charges
made by Wayne County was
filed by Harper March IA.

Natural Population
Gain Of 1,475,173 in
1o43 Listed for U. 5.
Br the As.ociated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The United States had a nat
ural increase In population Of
1,475,173 in 1943, the largest since
1888, the first year for which
complete reports were compiled
the Census Bureau reported yes
terday.
CA natural increase in population
is the excess of births over deaths) !.
| In l943 births numbered 1885, I'll
and 1.459, 1893 deaths were recorded.
This made the birth rate 21.9 per
1000 estimated population, and the
death rate 109, leaving a natural
increase in the population Of 11.0.
per 1000.
Since 1915, the first year birth
registration figures became avail
able, the rate Of natural increase
has been higher than that for 1943
in only three years: 1915, 11.8; 1916,
Ill and 1921, 1877 per 1000.
0lrtn nate increases.
The 2,935,l71 births recorded In
1943 exceeded the previous year by
l26,l75; the birth rate of 21.9 per
1000 was an increase of 4.3 per-
cent.
New Mexico reported the highest
birth rate, 294 per 1000; New Jersey
the lowest, 1871. Other states with
high birth rates: Utah, 282; South
Carolina, 27.6; Mississippi, 26.7;
Alabama. 26.6; North Carolina, 26.1.
The birth rate in the District of
Columbia was 26.2.
Following New Jersey, States with
the lowest birth rates were New
York, 1874; Rhode Island, 1875; Kan
sas, 1913; Missouri, 1913; Illinois,
1919. -
The 1943 death rate of 100 per
1000 was the highest since 1887. ahd
for the first year since 1910 showed
an increase over the preceding year.
Deaths exceeded 1912 by 74,S1l. The
bureau attributed part Of the In
crease to the absence of large
numbers of military personnel from
the country, resulting in a relatively
older population.
New Hampshire Rate Highest.
New Hampshire reported the high
est death rate, 14.6 per 1000; Ar
kansas the lowest, 80. States, in
addition to New Hampshire, with
death rates exceeding 100 per 1000:
Vermont, 1873; Maine, 1872; Massa-

States, in addition to Arkansas,
with death rates less than 90 per
1000: North Carolina, 8.3; Utah,
8.3; Woming, 8.8; Texas, 80.
The total estimated population of
the Nation was not given in the
study of natural increases, but the
last official figure for the civilian
population, exclusive Of those in
the armed forces, was 127, ,307,8

Housing
Continued From First Page J

also from labor to the easing of
home building restrictions. It was
said that some elements of labor
believe construction of costlier hous-
Ing would remove any chance for
war workers to obtain low-cos
dwellings.
Last summer WPB approved a
program calling for the building of
100000 privately financed dwelling
units throughout the country in
the last three months of this year
In high-cost areas, the sale limit
per house was raised from 5000 to
$500 and the rental limit from
$50 to S62.50.
Rigid restrictions on room sizes
and on the quantity of materials.
such as lumber to be used, were
retained. however. So far, an MIA
ofncial said. not a single dwelling
unit has been authorized in this
large program. Restrictions on
housing quality we're blamed largely
Tor this situation. MIA does not
believe any new homes will be built
unless WPB approves its request.
Z A high WPB official declared
materials were available to support
housing program of reasonable
size. He was inclined to approve
the MIA proposal, but desired to
await the outcome Of conferences
with OPA. WPB has the authority
to overrule OPA in the matter.
The off1cial declared that in anyI
event the current restrictions on
room size, quantity of materials and
such would be eased, and the pro-
vision that new housing must BE-
either sold to or rented by q war
worker would be removed. He said
the important thing was to get new
housing and he did not see where
1t made any difference whether 4
war worker or the neighborhood
preacher" buys 1t.
The MIA proposal calls for the
lifting Of the price limitation to
5000 n areas of higher cost, Gem
orally speaking this would be III the
colder sections Of the country where
tighter construction and elaborate
heating plants are necessary. Pre-
sumably it would include Washing
ton. The limit would be scaled down
IN other sections where an Identical
house could be built at lower cost.
Limitations on prices and mate
rails have held the wartime dwell
ing generally to two bedrooms. The
three bedroom house would appear
oncs more on the market should
the MIA plan Be adopted.

Horse and Buggy
Days
BY the Old Lamp Lighter
TIE HOUSE or HAGER
dedicated TO
Mrs. Frank w. Mish, Jr.)

An old house mourned In the valley,
Deserted, aloof and forlorn;
Waiting the aid of an ally,
To bring back a splendor long gone,
Those days of its venturous building,
When bastions were needed to fend
'Gainst red fires blazing and gliding
The sky and the hillside and glen.
The work of bewildered savage
The terror they tried to invoke
In the alien, seeking to salvage
Freedom from the harsh prussian
yoke.
The place was fair to the stranger
This land which the Calverts had
sought;
He strove, unmindful of danger,
And thus Fortress Hager was
wrought
Inspired by a womans dreaming,
II stood through the changes of time,
Til thousands round it were teem-
ing.
Who forgot twas the city's shrine
But now has come recognition;
The vision of woman once more
Has triumphed over negation--
Past glory again to restore.

side OF 60 days and to be completed
by Oct, l5 There were only two
bids, The other bid was submitted
by the Vanort Co. Their bid was
$4,000. The Pauly Company had
built 5000 jails in the United States.
About 30 men, IL was stated, would
be employed. The work was to be
done almost entirely by home labor
Four skilled worlxmen would prob
ably be sent here. The improve
ments were being modelled after the
Jail at Kingston, NJ Y, which was
visited by the Commissioners on a
trip of inspection. The money for
the improvements was TO be taken
from the Western Maryland Railroad
fund. After the work was paid for.
there would remain only $4,000 of
the railroad money. The County
Commissioners were to pay the
Pauly Company $40 for each day af-
ter Oct. Is that the work remained
uncompleted. The money was to be
paid as follows: $4,000 when the
first row of cells was completed;
$4,000 when the second row was
finished; $4,000 when the first row
of the second tier was erected, the
balance when the work was COM
pleted. H. S. Lippencott, contract
ing agent for the Pauly Company,
signed the contract on the part of
the builders, and all the Commits
sioners signed. The whole interior
was to be torn out and only the old
walls and roof would be utilized.
Nineteen new windows were to be
cut in the walls There were to be
AZ cells, each five feet wide by seven
deep, from front to rear, and eight
feet high in the clear.
A large barn was raised on the
farm of Daniel Haupt, near Cave
town, at which upwards of 200 per-
sons were present. A big dinner was
served.
The first carload of wheat was
shipped June IA by Abram Ditto,
over the Wabash Railroad from Park
Head, consigned to John w. Stone
braker, this city.
The Trolley Company, it was an
nounced, would build two 30-foot
freight cars for use on the Myers
vile extension, besides smaller box
and flat cars. The cars were to be
equipped with air brakes and link
couplers. Each freight car would
carry two powerful motors.
