40 YEARS AGO
IN WYANDOTTE

On a motion Of Alderman Wood

ed to prepare an ordinance reuuir-
ing that all bread sold In the city
should weigh not less than two
pounds.
Fire from an unknown cause de-
Stroyed the barn in the rear of Eli
bert's store resulting in the loss of
four horses, harnesses and grain.
Damage was placed at $4,000.
Wyandotte's population increased
with the arrival of so Hungarian
immigrants.
Claims for injuries received as a
result Of the wooden sidewalks were
being lodged against the city by the
dozens. The largest claim was one
for $500 for injuries received in a
fall caused by loose plank.
Water mains and q commercial
lighting system were TO be extended
to the newly acquired South Detroit
territory as far as funds would per-
NIT. Four street lights were also to
be installed In the annexed portion
of the city.

Toys for Christmas will only
reach about Is per cent of pre-
war volume. Quality will be better,
however, that's any consolation.
Because of shortage of manpower
and transportation, retailers are

Christmas gift shopping early in
November-just after the election!
Much misunderstanding exists, 1t
seems, about those $4,000 loans
available to returning servicemen.
The law provides for loans, not
gifts; the loans may be used to buy
or build homes, purchase businesses,
or buy farms. But Uncle Sam
doesn't make the loans. He merely
guarantees loans when made by

best-known military police escort
guards at a prisoner stockade In
France.

Odds-and- from the news
counter:
State Republican leaders are
banking strong on heavy upstate
vote next Tuesday Nov. y to over
come the Detroit Wayne county
swing to F.D.R. This latter trend
has been accelerated by migration
of approximately 100000 workers,
most of them from the South. to
Detroit war plants. The CLIO.
Political Action Committee has been
flooding these war workers with
fourth term literature.
The Importance Of the tourist in
dustry to the Michigan copper
country is emphasized by these
facts: In 1916, a peak production
year before we entered the first
World War. Michigan copper output
was 80 million pounds. BY 1913 it
had declined to 934 million. On a
basis of national production, the
drop is still more significant. Ke-
weenaw district turned out more
than rs per cent of the nations
supply in 1916; 1t was only per
cent in 1913.
When a Michigan service man be-
comes a patient at any government
hosital in the U.S-A., native Of
Michigan promptly calls to pay him
a visit. It's one Of the unique
services of the office of Veteran
Affairs, headed by Col Phil Back.
