Public Favors
Vertical Split
Legislative Issue
Thoroughly Aired

Division of Macomb County
into east and west legislative
areas rather than politically
opposed north and south seq
ments appeared a foregone
conclusion today, after an Off
cial public meeting Tuesday
night failed to raise single
voice advocating the north and
south division.
The supervisors Legislative
Committee, meeting with the
public and representatives of all
county communities in the
fifth floor courtroom of the
County Building, heard only a
strong endorsement of the YER
tical plan, and its pleas for at
least one champion of the hori-
zontal dividing method went
unanswered.
SCANT OPPOSITION
A standing vote indicating ap-
proval of the east-west division,
called for by Supervisor Adrian
A. Lingemann, committee chair
man, brought everyone to their
feet - except Supervisor Earl
Tallman, of Warren Township,
and six or seven South Macomb
men seated with him.
However, when Lingemann
next asked for standing a vote
supporting the north-south d.
vision, no one stirred. Linge-
mann then pointed out that all
speakers had warmly pleaded
for the east-west division as the
only practical and fair method,
and asked for someone to cham.
pion the other method. No cham
pion volunteered.
Edward Priestap, of Rich
mond. then addressed the Legis-
lative Committee in significant
language, saying in part:
you have observed public
sentiment representing the en-
tire county, and 1t has been
unanimously in favor of an east
west division. There has been no

Blow Deep in
Defense
British Sub Crews
Score Heavily
Against Jop Lifeline

Associated Press War Correspondent
Five submarine chasers shep-
herdins a 7,000-ton japanese
aircraft carrier through Malacca
Strait couldn't prevent a Brit
ish submarine from sending
torpedoes crashing into the flat
tops hull and probably sinking
her, the British Admiralty an
nounced today.
1t is through Malacca Strait,
which separates Malaga from
the island of Sumatra, that
most of the supplies to Japan's
army in Burma must pass.
The Admiralty also said other
submarines scored torpedo hits
on a Japanese cruiser in the
same area, but not in the same
action, and sank a medium
sized supply ship. A smaller
supply ship was shelled into
submission.

In the southwest Pacific war
zone, Allied headquarters con-

tured Momote airdrome on the
invaded Admiralty Islands will
shortly be in full use by our air
force" and reported the enemy's
first ma jor counter attack
against the American beachhead
had been repulsed.
The airfield, located on Los
Negros Island, is the largest of
two in the Admiralties and the
prize for which sixty army
forces battled when they swept
ashore on the Bismarck Sea
islands Tuesday morning.
In Allied hands, the Momote
airdrome would serve as a
