County Plans
New Buildings
Supervisors Consider
Joii, Hospitoi Units

In keeping with the general
trend towards planning postwar
construction projects TO relieve
unemployment, the county Board
of Supervisors Monday discussed
means of financing public works.
Supervisors discussed plans
for a new county Jail. a new in
Urinary and also a contagious
hospital, all needed projects. The
building committee. was ordered
to make a survey of needs and
draw up list of projects for
discussion at the February meet
ing.
In respect TO financing. Coun-
~ Controller Sherwood j. Ben
nett suggested that funds derived
from the 1914 state land office
sales, which may total $4,000,
be set aside as the nucleus of a
building fund. 1t was also sug-
gested that If the state legisla-
ture votes to return any sales
tax money TO the counties. that
this be added TO the fund.
The discussion was featured by
strongly voiced protest from
Mayor Donald r. Westendorf, of
Mount Clemens. against further
burdens of taxation being impos-
ed on real estate, especially
home owners. He expressed the
opinion that real estate taxation
had reached its limit, and that
al efforts should be concentrat-
cd in obtaining rebate from
the state sales tax monies and
other tangible and intangible
taxes withdrawn in substantial
amounts from smaller units Of
government. Westendorf said
that state representatives and
senator's should be urged to OBJ
tain this rebate in every possible
field.

In keeping with an increased
cost of living since the allowance
for county jail meals was pegged
at 25 cents each some time ago.
the county Board of Supervisors

ance 10 27.5 cents per meal.
The raise was allowed at the
request of Sheriff Jacob f.
Theut, Supervisors showed little
hesitation in granting the in

had pleaded with Congress for
two years TO take undue profits
out of war.
On his third point, a cost of
food law, lac said il should en-
able the government to put
reasonable floor under farm
prices and a ceiling on the prices
that consumers pay. 1t should
apply only to necessities, he de-
clared, and public funds VIII be
required TO effectuate It. He fig
uqed the cost would be about
one per cent of the present an
nual cost of the war,
Unless the sterilization stat
ute is renewed, he said, the
country can expect price chaos
by summer. Sterilization can
not be accomplished by wish
ful thinking, ne said, and posi-
tive action must be taken to
maintain the integrity of the
dollar.
The President touched with
relative brevity, al the outset
of his message, on the war con-
ferenees which took place over
seas in the final weeks of l943.
He hailed them as intended to
prevent mistakes made at the
conclusion Of the last war.
"Of course, we made some
commitments he said, I'VE
most certainly committed our
selves to very large and very
specific military plans which re-
quire the use of all Allied forces
TO bring about the defeat Of our
enemies at the earliest possible
time.
But there were no secret
treaties or political or financial
commitments.
VITAL OBJECTIVE
The one supreme objective
for the future, which we dis
cussed for each nation individ-
ually, and for all the United
Nations, can be summed up in
one Word--securlty.
And that means not only
physical security which provides
safety from attacks by aggres-
sors. It means also economic Sc
curity. social security, moral
security - in family of ma
tons"
Mr.. Roosevelt warned against
over confidence and complacen-
cy. asserting the way to figs
and win the war is all out
and not with half an eye on
battlefronts and half an eye on
personal, selfish, or political in
terests at home.
He said he hoped Congress
would recognize that while 1914
ia political year, national
service is an issue which tran
sends politics.
He said he believed the Amer
lean people would welcome
measure based on a just princi-
pie Of fair for one, fairtor all"
Asking Congress to look into
means for implementing what
he termed. an economic, second
Bill of Rights, Mr.. Roosevelt
vigorously assaulted whining de-
mands Of selfish pressure groups
who seek to feather their nests
while young Americans are dy-
ing
He spoke OF the need for unity
at home, pounding away or a
theme he has used before--that
there is only one front in the
war.

AssaiI Liquor
Permit Law
enforcement 10 Slowed
by Lock of Penalty

Sheriff Jacob F. Theut, who
since Jan. has stood pat on
the state drinking permit law
because he said it did not ap-
pear specific in its punishment
provisions, Tuesday announced
that he will ask a written opin-
ion from Prosecuting Wilbur F.
Held to determine whether or
not his officers will ignore the
law which is now being dis
counted by legal authorities.
Sheriff Theut said no arrests
have been made by his force to
date, and he has been assaulted
by calls from licensees and law
enforcement offices inquiring
about the law.
AUTHORIZATIONS Supt.
Louis L. Berg issued orders yes,
terday for discontinuance of at
tempts to enforce the law re-
curing persons between the
ages Of 81 and 25 TO have drink
ing permits. Berg based his ac-
ton on the failure Saturday, to
obtain a warrant for youth
found attempting TO buy drinks
without card.
In Oakland county, Charles L.
Wilson, county prosecutor, to-
day instructed the law enforce
ment heads in his area to cease
enforcement of the act. He also
ordered County Clerk Lynn B.
Allen to. stop issuing cards. The
law, Wilson stated, provides no
penalty for either buying or
selling liquor without card.
AT Lansing Attorney General
Herbert j, Rushton said county
authorities were in error in their
belief no penalties were pro-
Vded. The new drinking law, he
said, is an amendment to the
Michigan criminal code, which
states that any violation of any
prohibition in the code for
which no specific penalty is pro-
vded, shall be considered mis-
dcmeanor. Maximum penalty
for misdemeanor is 80 days in
jail or a $500 fine, or both.
