BY The Associated Press.

SAN DIEGO, Calf, JAN g.
Effect of the ODT ban on travel to
horse, dog or automobile races as
applied to the nearby Aqua Caliente,

public cooperation to make the
order effective
The order bans use of private au-
tomobiles, heretofore not under ODT

Senate BoIks
at Sheriff's
Liquor Fund

LANSING, Feb. 22- (P) -
The Senate baked temporarily
Thursday at a proposal to give
County sheriffs more money
with which to enforce liquor
laws.
The measure would place 40
per cent of liquor license fee re-
funds to each village or town
ship in the hands of the sheriff
to- pay for officers to enforce
the liquor laws in those areas,
which usually lack full-time po-
licemen. Eighty-five per cent OF
license fees are rebated now to
the local communities, ostensi-
bly, to finance law enforcement
but actually without any legal
strings attached.
Senators George N. Higgins,
Ferndale, Audley Rawson, Cass
City, Otto w. Bishop, Alpena,
and Robert j. Mcdonald, Flint,
all protested that the Bill would
divert to law enforcement
money which now is being used
by local governments for ad-
ministration expenses.
Senator Harry F. Hittle, Lam
sing, said the Bill would elimi-
~,+o @bo con,p,on oycuco of Ia
cal officials for not enforcing
the liquor laws the lack of
money. If the citizens desire
strict enforcement, he said, they
then can hold their own officials
responsible.
Senator Ivan A. Johnston, Mt.
Clemens Republican, declared,
"If know anything about coun-
ty sheriffs, they will be two of
the best vote-getters they can
find, dress them in monkey
suits, put them in patrol car
and that's the extent of the en-
forcement you'll get"
Rawson said the Bill was un-
necessary in his district because
it already had adequate rural
enforcement, and the rebates
were being used by villages to
finance street lighting.
Senator Frank Heath, Bay
City, retorted that his personal
observation of beer gardens in
Tuscola county indicated your
district needs cleaning up"
Johnston also baked an ad-
ministration Bill to regulate
trailer and summer camps. The
Bill went back to committee
after he charged that as it was
drawn it would require "any
group of 10 Boy Seouts-who
might want to 60 on a camping
trip during the summer to get
a SIS license before the first OF
May"
The Senate passed, 10 to 2, a
bill raising the salaries of men,
bers of Board of Supervisors
from SIS to SO a day. The cham
Der defeated an amendment
limiting the increase to S6 a
day.

"He stated, however, that this
report taken in its entirety

mitted to see the so-called secret
statement or report"
The proposal to leave much
of the American troops equip
ment in Europe when Germany
falls and soldiers are transferr-
ed to the Pacific originated in
official quarters.
These sources explained that
equipment would be left behind
in order to bring sizeable fore
es into action as quickly as pos
sible against Japan by re-
equipping them from the Amer
lean arsenal. The net result, 1t
was stated, would be to hasten
the end of the war by avoiding
delay in re-assemblying supplies
and equipment from dumps and
depots scattered over Europe.
Following publication of this
report, another high government
source gave a similar account,
stating that production policy
could not be based upon the
hope of using leftover arma-
ment after the Nazi collapse,
since it was hoped to bring
about the transfer Of troops as
quickly as possible.
Ultimately, both sources said,
such equipment as was useable
would be sent to the new war
theater or returned to this coun-
try.

ed that the end of the European
war would find certain Ameri-
can equipment and supplies on
hand in Europe which because
of wear and tear or the very
nature Of the item" it would be
ill-advised to ship to the Pacific
Such supplies would have to be
disposed of "as good judgment
and common sense dictate

U.S.. Will Shift All UseabIe
Arms to Pacific Theatre

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22-(R)
- The War Department, says
Secretary Stimson, will transfer
from Europe to the Pacific, aft
err Germany falls, the maximum
equipment which can be used
effectively against Japan.
Stimson, in a letter which APP
pears in the Congressional rec
ord today, contradicted state
ments by highly placed but
anonymous government officials
who said troops shifted from
Europe to the Pacific theater
would leave behind the bulk of
their equipment in the interest
of speed and would be largely
re-armed.
The latter report, and partic-
ularly an Associated Press story
on Jan. 81 making it public, was
submitted to Stimson by Rep.
Engel (R-Mich) along with a re-
quest that the war secretary
state whether or not he had
adopted such policy and his
reasons for adopting it if it were
in effect.
BLUNT WARNING
Engel bluntly told Stimson
that his (Engel's) support of the
next war department appropria-
ton bill would depend largely
upon Stimson's reply.
Stimson's letter, entered in
the record by Engel, said the
War Department "contemplates
making maximum use of all
equipment which be utilized eff
fectively in the war against ia
pan, regardless of where the
equipment is located"
1.-THE expressed goal Of pre-
sent War Department policy is
maximum transfer of equipment
