JACKSON, Sept. 2S-The City
Of Detroit today prepared for a
showdown battle on a proposal
that state financial aid TO munich

asserted without qualification that
Detroit and other local govern

stand.
The amount set by the state

through a revision of the lntan-

Fires Threaten
Two E. T.. Stores

Fl Centro's fire alarm sounded
twice Sunday, when flames broke
out in two buildings, housing fur
niShings and household appoint
ments, in separate sections of the
city.
The first alarm was received Gt
4 :55 p. m. when l8year-Old Bob
Graham noticed flames coming from
the rear of the DelCzier Furniture
Exchange, 542 Main street.
Firemen said that, although cause
of the fire as yet was undetermined
flames had started inside the small
building. Rugs, chairs, linoleum and
other furnishings were burned and
charred, but many pieces were con-
sidered salvagable. Firemen fought
the blaze one hour.
Damage costs were unQuoted,
pending investigation Tuesday by
an insurance examining inspector.
Two unidentified marines figured
prominently in sounding of the Sec
end alarm. In passing the Ed Royce
Truck, Transfer and Storage COM
pany. 666 Broadway, late Sunday
night. the men noticed fire inside
the building. They broke in, dragged
burning divan onto the sidewalk
and summoned the fire department.
No other damage was done. The re-
port was received at the fire station
at IL: 81 p. m.
Firemen were unable to cite the
cause or damage costs.
Royce was cut of the city at the
time.

That Ell Centro will have her face
lifted further became apparent
Monday, when E. Paul Ford, city
engineer and director of public
works, announced that his depart
ment will go into action Tuesday
reconditioning all unpaved streets.

Mr.. Ford appealed to the citizenry
to see that no automobiles are
parked along the sides of streets
during the next two weeks, until
after roads have been serviced.
He indicated that a truck and
hand loading crew will follow the
blade to eliminate rocks and weeds
thrown aside by blading operations.

Lawmaker Says
Censors Open
Soldier Ballots

WASHlNdlON, sept. q. tUP)-
Representative Fred Norman, (R),
Washington, has asked the war and
navy departments to investigate
charges that military censors vio-
lated the secrecy of soldier and
sailor ballots in the Washington
primary election on July IL.
A war department spokesman
said that any investigation of SOL
dier ballots by censors was a direct
violation of army and navy regu-
lationS. He admitted that few
ballots in primary elections had
been opened 'by mistake" but said
that the situation is now under
control"
In letters to Secretary of War
Henry L. Stimson and Secretary
of Navy James Forrestal Norman
said he had been informed by coun-
ty chairman Arthur F.. Graham of
the Grays Harbor, Washington. Re-
publican committee that envelopes
containing the servicemen's Nllots
had obviously" been opened and
inspected.
1T seems ridiculous to suppose
that any soldier or sailor would in
clude with his ballet or put on his
ballot anything of a censorable ma
ture," Norman wrote. He explained
the serviceman's ballot is placed
in small, plain envelope, which in
turn is enclosed in a larger en-
velope bearing the address of the
county auditor.
Norman told Stimson and Forres-
tai that the practice would afford
opportunity to censors not only to
inspect the vote of the serviceman
but also to change it.
