As result Of a meeting of % Y. [. o. delegates of the C. I. O. Political action committee held in Horrington last night. at which time Ale union candidate for congress- man, Peter B. Higgins was heartily Endorsed the proposed candidacy of AEr Blansfield was subjected to sharp criticism. Robert Walkin- nnaW, chairman of the committee, eharged Atty. Blansfield with hold sng a record that is progressively anti-labor' as result of his term as state senator.
 Referring to Mfr Blansfields term as senator. Mfr. Walkinshaw stated. Following last nights meeting that:
 His voluntary proposal to the slate legislature that unions should be broken up into local and state groups was analysed at the meet Ing and the conclusion was that the bsll arose from his own personal in- tent to snash labor" the district Chairman said.
 MT. Blansiield, in answer to such charges. today told The Democrat that he had mo quarrel with the (. I. O." and that "Mr. Walkin- ehaw's statement is unfounded in tact, as usual". Expanding upon the Aalters assertion, Mir. Blansfield Rdded:
 Tn no way did any measure That ] proposed, in the senate. call for the dissolution of union af. filiations. in any degree. My only motive in proposing such a measure, as the public financial accounting by the unions Of their receipts was to ciarify for the rank and file workers. members Of the union, the status of their contributions. Tn 10 way was any measure intended for my own personal gain"
 The accounting referred to by Mr blansfield relates to his measure that all unions make public thei Financial reports. Recently. loca 25s, C. I. O.. on it's own iniative called a public hearing at which tsTne 6 yearly report was read.

UTICA - The Utica fire de-
partment was called out Sat
urday night to fight a grass fire
raging in the orchard near the
Jensen home on Cass street. The
son of the family was burning
out caterpillar nests in the fruit
trees and the grass became ig-
nitcd. In the excitement a Gig

two fires at once.
Nearby homes and garages
were threatened and the roar of
the flames could be heard on
Van Dyke road.
The fine fruit trees and grape
vines in the Jensen orchard
were destroyed.

attention of OPA authorities
Most of them appeared to con-
Germ soldiers and soldiers wives,
and the callers lamented the
fact that apartment and room
renters are taking advantage of
circumstances to add extra
charges and reduce conven-
fences such as 35 cents a
week TO play a radio. and
exhorbitant rental charges for
"cubby-hole" rooms with share
the-bathroom and share-everN
thing facilities. E. We are in
no position to pass judgment
the OPA will but dur
ing these times we consider it
shameful and near-treasonablc
to profiteer on those who are
sacrificing so much for their
country.
The next citywide waste
paper pickup will take place
Sunday, August q two
weeks from now ac-
cOrding to an announce
ment made on Monday by
Charles V. Titus, Salvage
FOr-Victory chairman here.
Needless to point out, the war
is far from being over
and wastepaper is still urgent
ly needed for Michigan's mills
supply cartons for ammuni-
ton, blood plasma and other
essential items of supply
Sunday has been chosen for
the drive for very definite
reason because most of
the older Boy Scouts and
Scout leaders who provide the
manpOwer are unavailable on
other days, because they have
jobs helping the war effort in
some manner. Also, trucks are
at premium during the
week. SO let's put our
shoulders to the wheel and
make the next paper drive a
success.

used 70 make them onc
thots why we regard it as (
minor tragedy, a severe blow tc
the home front, when the tradi'
tional Cookie Jar of USO es'
tablishment remains empty fol
some time.
Talking with Dorothy Tink-
Ter, assistant USO director
about it, and Miss Tinker
theories that the several lad
les groups who have been in
terested in the USO since its
establishment must each feel
that the other one is looking
after the cookies. That's
about the only reasonable ex-
PLANTATION.
The fact remains that the
Cookie Jar is, and has been,
empty! Let's hope one or
more organizations take over
the privilege (not the burden)
of providing tasty cookies for
the lads. who may soon know
nothing more attractive than X
Rations. And if you have
mt got the sugar or shortening
for cookies. call Miss Tlnk-
Ter at 1921.
Our appeal for the identifi-
cation of Gus V. Moore TO
whom a prisoner of war card
from a Jap camp was adj
dressed, was concluded quick
ly and successfully after its
publication Tuesday. First
an unidentified lady called
and gave us the first clue, the
former address of a Gus Vir-
ginus Moore and later
Gus wife called and not only
gave positive Identification,
but explained excerpts from
the card relating to personal
matters. Moore lives on
a Utica rural route on Mound
road. The card was
from a younger half-brOther,
Sgt. Norman Rose who was
last heard from in Manila in
May 1912. and whose Manila
wife is still among the miss
ing after the Jap conquest.
Rose visited around here when
Gus Moore lived on Union
Lake Road in the late '30's.
