of decreasing" Colonel Long
said. The Federal Bureau of In
vestigation and u. S. attorneys
are anxious to cooperate with
the Selective Service System,
and in the past many registrants
who were Wilfully delinquent
have been prosecuted. Many OF
the delinquents are delinquent
through Ignorance of the law.
When it has been determined
that this is true, these will be
inducted into the armed forces
and thereby clear themselves of
their delinquency.
1T is the duty of every citi-
zen of the state to cooperate with
Selective Service headquarters
and the Department of Justice
in clearing up this undesirable
situation" Colonel Long pointed
out.
Watch for the list of delin-
auent registrants in your com
munity, and if you know the
whereabouts of any of them,
please report them TO your local
board Immediately" he asked.
The following man has been
reported to the Department of
Justice as delinquent: Willie
Harris, colored, age 35, and his
last address is listed as 847 Ell

EAST DETROIT - Predic-
tons of prosperous future for
this fast growing community,
and encouragement for its ex-
tensive postwar planning pro-
gram already launched, were
given Tuesday by Village Engi-
neer Peter E. Brender, of Wayne,
at a Kiv'anis Club dinner at
which all civic groups were we'll
represented.
The dinner, held at the I'M
manuel Methodist church dining
hall, was attended by Mayor
Richard Maxwell and Council
men Theodore Sherman and Will
liam Ryan, of East Detroit;
school board officials; members
of the Board of Commerce: the
Recreation Commission: Plan
ming Commission, and the Amer
lea Legion.
Guests at the speakers table
included Circuit Judge Alton H.
Noe and County Clerk Guy L..
Brown President Walter NJ
Smyth and vice-president Bar
ney Campbell conducted the
club meeting. Charles N. Board
club director, introduced the
speaker, who has had consider
able experience in post war
plans for Wayne village, Gar
den City and nearby communi-
ties.
WIDE DEVELOPMENT
East Detroit businessmen and
officials listened with interest to
the Wayne engineer discussion,
principally in view Of the city's
SIS, 038,0 900 postwar program, for
which score of projects we're
submitted to Washington six
months ago. These projects in
clude a 100000 water filtration
plant; a $4,000 municipal
building, and s226, 900 in public
buildings, in addition to street,
sidewalk, sewer and water main
improvements.
Engineer Brender stressed the
need for fleXibility in long-range
planning, and urged that it be
based on fundamental factors
affecting the community, such
as capital and surplus available,
type of educational needs, needs
for vocational training, Transport
tation problems and other ply
steal and economic factors.
STUDY LOCAL NEEDS
"A planning group should
first study the factors that in
duced people TO settle in the
community and make il their
home" Brender said, land then
enlarge upon these to keep them
living happily there"
He sketched projected plans
OF the state Conservation De-
partment and the Clinton Huron
Parkway Authority for inter-
locking projects for recreation
purposes throughout this area,
and pointed out that East De-
troit's position is an important
one.
In certain past periods, Brend-
er said, most communities grew
without planning. Later. the cy-
Gle developed to a stage where
some planning was done by in
dividuals and "minorities' To-
day, the increased responsible
ties OF community are mir
rored by the unified, cooperative
effort being shown by all groups
- official and otherwise - in
enhancing their home towns.
Not only that, he said, but prob
