bill with Wayne County for sew
age treatment, unless the bene-
fitted districts start paying for it..
Original estimates of costs, at
the rate of l.3 million gallons a
day, are far below actual oper-
ating estimates, and may soar to
100000 a year.
Macomb County was forced
under duress" by the Federal
Government to enter the Wayne
County disposal set-up, when
FWA officials made it clear that
southern communities could not
hope for sewer or drainage aid
projects unless they abandoned
the county's existing Nine Mile
disposal plant and entered the
metered Lakeshore Interceptor.
Harpers action in letting
sewage flow into the lake in
stead of using the Federal inter-
ceptor at $l65 a day, found sup
port in Drain Committee
recommendation read to the SUI
pervisorS, advising the Drain
Commissioner to operate the in
terceptor Chat is, control the
flow only to the extent Of the
income received from COM
munities benefiting"
Income from the district so far
would allow only flow of one
million gallons a day to Wayne
County, the rest would auto
matically 60 to the lake.
Harper has proposed rate to
all domestic water users in
southern communities of $500 a
year (Sl.30 quarter) for sew
age disposal-but first a COM
plete survey of all communities
Will have 10 be made.
He has also proposed (appar-
emily with unanimous backing
from the supervisors that the
county enter protest of the
present SAB per million gallons
paid to Wayne for sewage
treatment, before the two-year
contract is renewable March II.
A strong protest as TO exces-
sive sewage treatment costs
and a definite threat that a
breakdown of water and sewer
rate payments may result was
made to the board of Supervisor
Earl Tallman of Warren Town
ship. He compared Detroits SAB
charge TO an estimated So per
million gallons costs in New
Jersey disposal plant project. He
also warned that Macomb Coun-
ty taxpayers will pay costs, but
no costs plus, for sewage flow
but protested paying for clean
rain water which is also met
cred.
Pros and cons of the compli-
Gated situation were being dis
cussed as the meeting re-opened
for the afternoon session, and
it was expected the board will
formulate definite policy in re-
gard to costs of the district un-
dertaking; instructions to Har-
per, and the legal protest to
Wayne County concerning rates
charged.

'Flowering of the Tisza'

A strange sight in Hungary,
known as the "fowering of the
Tisza," is caused by the drowning
of billions of small insects. Once
in three years they hatch. fly over
the Tisza river, and fall on its sur
face, coloring it richly with their
bodies to make it appear covered
with small yellow flowers.
The river remains that way for
days and always attracts a large
number of visitors.

The draft for the authority leaves
it up to the defense committee it.
self to recommend, at an early
meeting, what sort of international
police force, If any, is necessary for
keeping the peace. The advantage
of an air force as an international
police force is that during peace
full times the air force could remain
at home, within the member states.
Yet 1t could reach the scene of ag-
erosion within a matter of hours.
MAKE DECISIONS STICK
Short of sudden emergency, dis
putes are to be settled: first, by
negotiation; second, if this fails, by
arbitration-either through world
court or otherwise; or, as a last re-
sort, by the council Of the author
ity."
"This is the second great step for
ward over the league" said Lord
Cecil. 1.-THE league machinery for
settling disputes is too clumsy and
involved. The league had no power
to make binding decisions except
that members were pledged not to
take up arms against an unanimous
decision of the league. The authro-
ity, on the other hand, would have
definite, simple rules Of procedure in
case of disputes. And in the last
analysis the council, which includes
the four great powers, would deter
mine how the decisions should be
binding"

League of Nations Union Gas he still
Isl eliminated in the award to him
of the Noble Prize in 1887.
Let's be realistic about it," Lord
Cecil said to me. "The League failed
because the great powers were not
willing to do their part. The small
nations, by and large, were ready
to do theirs. They made that clear
before and during the Italo-Ethi-
opian war.
IF, after the war, the great pow
ers-the United States, Britain,
Russia, China-are again unwilling
to accept their responsibility, Moth
ing will keep the peace. That's why
any new international body, replace
ing the league, must place its first
emphasis on the realistic viewpoint
that the burden of keeping the
peace rests squarely on the shoul-
ders of the fc great powers. They
are the ones 70 control the force
which makes peace, or war, pos
sible."
POLICE WORLD BY AIR
The draft for such new interna-
tional Authority has, indeed, al
ready been made by the League of
Nations Union. Lord Cecil, as pres
ident of the union, was particularly
anxious that such a draft be drawn,
for he feels that otherwise discus
sion of an international authority
becomes unreal. 1t may draw the
oretical supporters who will turn
out to opponents when discussion
gets down to specific cases.
The draft pact contains Is short,
concise articles creating an interna-
tional authority. 1.-THE authority diff
fers from the league in two major
espects," Lord Cecil said. First, it
makes clear that it is the primary
duty of the United States, Great
Britain, the Soviet Union, and
China to act in case of aggression
or threatened aggression"
This is accomplished through the
creation, as part of the authority,
of a defense committe, new COM
mittee not embodied in the league.
The defense committee would con-
sist in the first instance, of the
four major nations. They shall, &C
cording to article nine Of the draft,
"use their whole strength to pre-
vent any act of aggression :"
In case Of emergency, the defense
committee is uncovered to act by
any means it deems necessary to
stop aggression. It would not have
TO consult the rest of the member
chip before acting.

It has recently been estimated
that the people of Waterbury as
well as the rest Of the nation fall
to salvage at least fifty percent Of
the paper that enters their homes.
In normal times, it has been esti-
mated, about 80 to SO percent Of the
nations waste paper was salvaged
from homes and business houses.
The rest, as so much Of 1t is now,
today, was burned in fireplaces,
Furnaces and about 60 percent Of 1t
ended in city dumps.
It must be remembered that none
of the paper that gees overseas these
days in the forms of packages. car
IONS. plane coverings, etc., ever
comes back to this country.
Few Waterburians realize that
the waste paper, made up of old
newspapers, magazines, scraps OF
paper and corrugated boxes, etc.,
which they donate to the local waste
paper salvage effort, is being dis
solved into pulp in the beating watts
of New England paper mills in as
brief an interval of IL hours after
the receipt of this salvage at the
mills.
An indication of the acute short
age of raw paper supplies to these
mills may be gained from the facts
released by New England paper and
cardboard mills whereby it is shown
that processing of the salvage col
lections takes place in IL hours or
less after arrival Of the waste paper
at the mills.
Statistics released show that
storehouses of these mills are Writ
ually useless and are empty the
greater part of the time. In most
instances the bundles of 500 pounds
of waste paper which arrive at the
mills on trucks are transferred i'm
mediately to the pupers without thi
intermediate step of storage.
Materials are so short that pur-
chasing agents of these mills are
forced to extend their buying market
far beyond usual borders thus in
creasing the transportation prob
lens.

which is viewed with apprehension
by so many paper authorities, is thai

ViscOunt Cecil, still president of
what is left of the League of Ma
tiOnS Union, wants to strengthen
and streamline the machinery for
keeping the peace.
I asked Lord Cecil to what degree
the new authority would infringe
on the sovereignty of the United
States. mot at ALL" he replied. "All
decisions of the international au-
thority in matters of substance must
be unanimous. No state can be
forced to take action which 1t dis.
approves.
"The new authority would not ASK
America, or any one else, to give up
any Of her sovereignty. The author
ity is based on the assumption that
the United States is as much inter-
ested as any one else in having a
peaceful postwar world.
"If that assumption is true, the
international authority takes away
none of Americas sovereignty. If
the assumption is not true, and
America and the other great powers
do not want peace, there will never
be a peaceful world"
