Bribery Trial Awaits
Horde of Witnesses
Times Photo
BY FRANK MORRIS

He was Wayne Otis, secretary
and manager of the Citizens Loan
and Investment Co. of Lansing,
who also is president of the Mich
igan Association of small loan
companies.
Otis was held a hostile witness
in last Februarys examination
and was called by Sigler yester-
day only because the special
prosecutor was ordered by the
court TO produce him.
Sigler asked a few minor ques-
tons and then turned Otis over
to the defense attorneys.
Interrogated by Walter Nelson,
defense counsel from Detroit, Otis
told of five meetings of finance
company officials from all parts
of the Lower Peninsula, called to
raise money to employ a lobbyist
in Lansing. These meetings, in De-
troit and Lansing, were prior
to and during the 1889 session.
Otis testified all were called by
Abraham Cooper, president of
the Union Investment Corp OF

MASON, June 21--Special pro-
secutor Kim Sigler continued to-
day to lay the groundwork before
the grand jury in the states
bribery charge against IL law
makers and five finance company
officials.
Waiting 10 testify were hotel
employees. bank tellers and stenog-
raphers whose testimony bears
only indirectly on the states al
legation that thousands of dollars
was distributed in brides on two
finance company bills during the
1899 legislative session.
When about 300 more exhibits
are introduced. Sigler will produce
his star witness team-Maj.
Charles F. Hemans, the former
lobbyist, and Joseph Roosevelt of
Detroit. former senator, who was
Herman's handy man.
The trial before Judge John
Simpson of Jackson, took an un-
usual twist yesterday when a
state witness became a witness
for the defense.

Council Gets
Pension Ian

A proposal to change the re-
Itirement plan for teachers in De-
troit schools was received today
by the common Council.
Under the present plan, the
pension is uniform at $40 monthly
for teachers who retire after 30
years service and those who re-
tire earlier from disability.
Under the plan being studied
today by a special committee,
teachers could be retired at 60
years after 10 years service on a
pension not TO exceed $500 a
year. Those who retire before 60
would receive more than 81, 500
annually.
Teachers not now members of
the pension program and who
would join after the new plan
went into effect would receive
half pay but not TO exceed $500
"a year.
1t is estimated that the present
plan is costing the city about
$3.50, 900 a year but experts say
that the new one, if approved,
might cost as high as 81, 260.00O
annually.
Half Of the revenue under the
proposed system would be derived
from the contributions OF EN-.
ployes and the other half from
school and state funds. Employees
would be taxed per cent of their
salaries, not to exceed $3.50 a year
The proposal has been approved
by both the employees retirement
fund board and the teachers re-
tirement board.

Permit Denied
Blossom Heath

Permits for restaurant and soft

the Blossom Heath Corp. Negro
club which recently bought the
former we'll known gambling spot
Just outside the ST. Clair Shores
village limits.
In denying the clubs applica-
ton last night, the village COM
mission admitted its refusal was
prompted by a resolution pre-
sented by the taxpayers commit
tee protesting permits for estab-
lishments catering 10 a trade
from outside the village.
The resolution. signed by Ralph
s. Fearnside, chairman. and Doro-
thy Nj. Howard, secretary of the
committee. said that "such re-
sorts" attracted a type of people
that have earned for the village a
questionable reputation"

Dear Santa to God well pray,
That he'll come on Christmas Day.
Then He will put me on his knee,

Then ! will climb on his chair,
And pull and rumple his hair.
Then Mother will laugh and be gay,
On this our first Christmas Day.
So Santa just take all my toys,
To the orphan girls and boys.
All l want on this Christmas Day,
Is for my Daddy to come home to stay.
So Dear Santa, please ask God to bring

Then we will have peace on Earth,
And Good Will to All Men.

A War Huzurd

Some where in the South Seas
A pretty WAC, washed her Dainties.
She had no Bendix or Super Suds,
She had to rub and scrub her duds.
And hang them in the trees,
To float in the breeze.
Beneath a cloudless sky,
In the Tropical Sun to dry.
Shucks-A Monkey who was quite q
tease,
Came swinging through the trees,
With the greatest Of ease,
And ran off with the poor Girls

Lenten Speaker Cites
Two Kinds Of Faith

Citing the recent Christian Mani
festo by the clergymen of the Dutch
Reform Church in the Netherlands
as an example of faith which faces
all difficulties with a supreme de-
votion, the Rev. DR.. Vincent C.
Franks, rector of st. Paul's Church
at Richmond, Va, yesterday told
lenten MONDAY worshipers at the
Church of the Epiphany, 1917 G
street NV, that there are two
kinds of faith, the right and the
wrong kind"
There is the little faith of the
person who lives in a secure world
and accepts God in his little way"
DR.. Franks said. when war came
and he was touched he questioned
God, asking, How can there be a
God who allows such things to
happen?'"
These little people were satisfied
with a little faith because no strain
was put on it, the speaker declared.
They were merely worshiping in
casual way sufficient for the rou-
tine of normal life. 1t is when
faith stands up under pressure
when it overcomes fear, that it
is big and worthwhile.

ON THE RESPONSIBILITY OF MEMBERS

ITVHE FOLLOWING editorial in the Central
Utah Labor Journal" comedies with our views
on the subject, and we are glad to pass the good
advice along to our members:
TWenty-Seven years ago this year the writer
lof this article became member of the American
Federation of Labor. At that time, as at present
Ia great war was being fought A war whose
magnitude is dwarfted by the war of today, but a
IWar nevertheless that frightened mems magma
Itions and stirred their souls. The same slogans,
the same problems, the same fear of initiation, and
1.-THE same prosperity agitatng our coun-
try. And as today, because Of the war, the labor
movement had enjoyed a tremendous growth.
After the war came jolt, jolt caused by the
sudden cancellation of war contracts and a jolt
that not only destroyed overnight the false war
prosperity, but jolted loose from the labor move
ment many of the new fair-weather union mem
bers. These members had, as today been eager
to rush into union membership to secure the many
benefits that union membership brought to them.
They paid their money, as the saying goes, and
they took their choice and thought that was all
there was to it.
The writer joined his union as an apprentice
and it was good union 1t took the trouble to
explain, to the apprentices, at least, that paying
dues and carrying union card was not enough
"A man had also to be a union man at heart and a
union man realized that union membership carries
with it responsibility If the thousands and thou
sands of fair-Weather union members had been
taught their responsibilities as union men and had
ventures to express the opinion that many of the
crisis faced during the last two decades would
have been avoided ameliorated, because theI
labor movement would have been strong enough
to have forced the proper action and avoided the|
many mistakes made.
Today the labor movement, despite being split
despite being the victim of all the propa-
ganda abuse the National Association of Manu-
facturers can heap upon it's head, is greater,
stronger and more powerful than ever. And in theI
opinion of the writer it should stay that way. If|
it does it will eventually eliminate it's faults, be-
cause the membership will have realized it's re-
and made the necessary changes. lf|
it does this country will remain free and becomeI
more free.
This article is written for one reason and one|
reason only, and that is to point out to each nd-
vidual member that he has responsibility to-
wards his union. Attend your meetings, and if
there is something wrong with your union do not
be afraid to point out that fault. Make sugges-
tions. Help your officers and they will be able to
help you. Study your laws and learn your rights
because by that method your union will become
more valuable to you. Be loyal to your union be- |
cause by that way and that way alone can it be a /
help to you. In other words, be union man. don't
be lust card man.

STANCE WELCOME TO HEROES"

THE AMERICAN Federation of Labor, in its
monthly survey, again points out that the ad
minstration's wage freeze policy threatens the
future opportunity of servicemen and workers
1t charges that the wage policy has Disseminated
against wage earners by holding down wages
while incomes of other groups have been allowed
to advance far more, backs up its charges with
statistics and declares:
"As result, only 6 per cent of American
workers today have straight wage rates high
enough to give their families a health and eff
cheney living standard after the war at today's
price level, when industry returns to the 4O-hour
week.
"This will indeed be strange welcome home
to our heroes-to find that while they were away,
opportunity to earn an American standard of
living has been denied them by the administra-
tion's Little Steel wage freeze"
No wonder the federation declares that a
change in wage policy is urgent"

THE AMERICA WE WANT

A MEXICAN workers can be proud OF the news
"A that u. S. troops are advancing into Brltanny
equipped with far superior weapons. The tanks
that are rolling across France first rolled OFF the
assembly lines in Detroit, and the men VINO steer
them to victory know the part union men and
women are playing.
But the latest news of conflict on the home
front in Philadelphia is bound to make our soldiers
wonder whether we have the superior ideas to
back UP the superior weapons. Enemy ideas OF
race and class antagonisms must not be allowed
to capture America while our men are fighting to
liberate other nations.
The best of our postwar plans Will be shatter-
ed by the lawless forces of human nature, upless
we can supply the answer to bitterness, and
create the atmosphere in which change can take
place Moral Re-Armament was never more
urgently needed than today because 1T brings a
change of spirit to men and communities. 1t
creates prejudice-free level of living. 1t stands
for a common denomnator Of immediate construc-
tive action for everyone, above party, class, race,
point of view and personal adyantage
Representatives of labesy- management, gov
ernment, and the Armed Forces are now meeting
at the MIRA Training Center on Mackinac Island,
Michigan. "This is the production center Tor the
new spirit we need to unite the nation. America S
ideology is being forged here" was the comment
of one union officer.
Behind all the schemes and projects we need
the binding, healing force in the life OF the ma
ton This is the job for every man-ln his home,
union and plant. We must fight for the idea that
is greater and more powerful than the ideas o1
race and class. 1t will demand from us a states
manship far beyond the job Of running our own
union be it national or local-beyond the imme-
diate fight for wages and conditions, to the task
of building the deep personal loyaltes and enab-
ing men to rise above personal ambition and
factions.
Victory in this battle for Moral Re-Amament
will show our men at the front that country Is
being built worthy of their sacrifices America's
ideology must rise throughout the nation, revolu-
tionizing the thinking and living OF millions, up
roofing selfshness, hate and fear and enisting
every person in the task OF remakng the world.

BASIC PROVISIONS FOR HEALTH

A SENATE committee recently held an inquiry
on why nearly 100000 young men have been
found mentally or physically unfit for military
service. National leaders in various fields appear
ed before the committee and made suggestions for
general health improvement.
The situation plainly calls for national pro-
gram to develop physical fitness. This involves
many things, including adequate provision for
medical care, starting with the child. Other basic
essentials are decent housing and raising of wage
levels to bring good living conditions to all classes
of people.
The problem is closely tied up with fitness for
war and national welfare, the American Youth
Commission points out.
National defense and national welfare" it
says "are fundamentally dependent upon the de-
of strong healthy people. In the
present juncture, every phase of health and physi-
cal fitness for the entire population is deserving of
most earnest attention"

UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION

OUR PRESENT social security system must be
improved if it is to help our people ride out
reconverson unemployment. Millions of workers
are not covered by unemployment insurance, in
cludin9 government employees and food process
ing workers. In certain states, hundreds of
thousands who think they are covered will find
that they are disqualified because they had quit
voluntarily for war job.
Some states with the largest reserves provide
the lowest benefits. Only eleven states pay more
that SIS week as the maximum benefit to an UNI
employed worker Twenty-Five states pay no one
more than $l5 week, no matter how many de
pendents he has or how high his earnings were
Average weekly payment for total unemployment
in 1913 was only $l3.S4. Half the states pay bene
fits for only l6 weeks, no matter how long unem
ployment may last

"A FEW WEEKS OFF"

SENATOR WHITE of Maine, acting Republican
~ leader was Of the first legislators to show
up in Washington on August ! and assert his be-
lief that Congress should get down to work and
"clean up reconversion." After that he said 1t
would be time to "let the fellows have few weeks
off before election"
If Congress does anything at all before the
year ends it will be in the direction of softening
the impact of rehabilitation on American econ
omy, and by disposing smoothly of the billions in
Government war plants and supplies On top OF
the ifs is the question of jobs should there be
a sudden German collapse that could catch Amer
lea unprepared for tremendous economic adjust
mentS and employment shifts.
But as this is strictly an item of news, and
not glimpse into the crystal ball it may be added
that for some time TO come Congress will prob
ably do next TO nothing. The regular bills before
Congress stored in prediction cabinets, which
means that the slate is clean
There will be brief, routine sessions, every
three days, and if the CongresS-guard finds that
any war emergency warrants telegraphng Sena-
tors and Representatives to hurry back" it will
will be for reasons not clear-despte headlines in
the metropolitan newspapers.

A SENTENCE from The report Of the Senate
"A special subcommittee on Wartime Health and
Education is worth noting. Answering the broad
claim of the NWLB that initiation would be
touched off if controls over wages of less than
$500 a month for married workers and $50 a
month for single men were removed the com
mittee said:
eve cannot accept this thought. Imitation is
augmented by overspendng on the part of those
who have more money than they need for the es-
sentias Of life, not by the purchase Of necessities
