on the incorporation papers as a
club director.
Lingemann said that Leion
asked him his reactions to the
establishment of an inter-racial
club. The official said he told
his questioner that judging by
the number of phone calls he
had had relative to Blossom
Heath being purchased by Ne
groes, he thought there would
be considerable reaction" to
licensing of the club.
He also pointed out to Leion
that there had been race riots in
Detroit and racial trouble at
Eastwood Park EAST Detroit)
and Jefferson Beach (St. Clair
Shores) in recent years.
Leion insisted on making an
application, Lingemann said, SO
the official turned his applicant
over to the village clerk and an
application form was filled out.
Testimony then led to the
June 20 village commission
meeting, which attracted wide
spread attention beforehand.
Lingemann denied that there
was any prior meeting" Of the
commission, although admitting
the matter Of the zoning ordi
nance was discussed. He said he
could not recall any objections
to the license application specif-
ically because it was submitted
by Negro group.
Village attorneys at this juno
ture imposed strenuous objec-
tons, largely sustained by the
court, that the only admissible
evidence Is the action the village
commission took-not what its
members may have discussed In
conversations. Goodman argued
that there would be no argument
y hatsoever for the plaintiffs If
they were limited strictly to the
actual phraseology of the COM
missions resolution. He claimed
his questioning would reveal the
racial background of the entire
matter.
Lingemann was expected to
be followed to the stand by Miss
Dorothy Howard, custodian of
official record books Of the viii
lage, including licenses; Harold
Sidney, a printer, who has been
sub-poenaed by the club pro-
moters to produce printed ma
terial," and George A. Francis,
former village attorney.

Drinking Drivers
Gel Sharp Warning
Judge Orders Absence
from Bar Rooms

Blaming drinking for their
plight as convicted relons, visit
ing Judge Paul r. Cash, of
Alma, today delivered a stern
lecture on driving while drink
ing to two motorists recently
convicted in traffic accident
cases, and insisted that the
terms of their probation include
absenting themselves from any
place where intoxicants are dis
played, sold or manufactured.
The court made an exception
of restaurants where beer is
sold with lunches, but ordered
the two probationers to leave
the beverage alone and leave
such restaurants Immediately
their business there is conclud-
ed.
Judge Cash's warnings were
directed at Charles Chambers,
of Clawsop, and Roy Raley, 80,
of Van Dyke.
Chambers was placed on pro-
baton for two years and six
months; his driving privileges
suspended for the maximum
legal period, and he was or
dered to pay costs of $3.50. He
was charged with manslaughter
in the death of William Rosen
on March IA, 1914, near Utica in
Sterling Township.
A Circuit Court jury reduced
the charge to negligent homi-
eide.
Raley was placed on two
years probation; ordered to pay
S805 in hospital and medical
bills, and $50 court costs. He
was convicted of felonious driv-
ing in respect to an accident
Aug. q, when he allegedly hit
and injured seriously a woman
pedestrian in Mount Clemens.
Drinking was involved in both
cases, the court commcnted.

us action, in which Ernest
Goodman and BENJAMIN Safir,
Detroit attorney for Blossom
Heath, endeavored to sketch the
more-than-quarter-century his
tory of a notable club, licensed
and re-licensed by the village
for years without question, and
then suddenly the subject of
license refusal on the grounds
of improper zoning.
Goodman's argument con-
corning the unconstitutionality
of the village zoning ordinance
was only touched on at the op-
ening court session, and will be
developed further Wednesday
or Thursday. He also said he
may ask the court and counsel
TO visit the Blossom Heath pre-
misses.
Adrian A. Lingemann, Lake
Township supervisor for 20
years, and village president of
nine years, was the first lad
verse" witness called by Good
man for examination.
ADMIT WARNING
Through Lingemann's testi-
mony - including admissions
that the former village president
had warned Blossom Heath pro-
moters of racial feeling-Good-
man sought to bring out what
he termed the true reason for
rejection of the club license
application.
Lingemann explained under
questioning that Blossom Heath
was in operation as a club when
he first took up residence in the
Shores about rs years ago. AS
assessing officer he made official
visits to it for many years, he
said, and made lone other visit"
OF a social nature. He observed
food being served and public
dancing. The club remained
open continuously, except for
brief intervals between changed
ownershipS.
Lingemann said that the club
was licensed by the village, and
had Glass c liquor license. He
admitted the license of the club
had never been revoked to his
knowledge. Asked whether or
not the club closed voluntarily,
Lingemann lover strong objec-
tons of Goodman) answered.:
RESORT RAIDED
1T closed when it was raided
by the State Police for gamb-
Ing.
Judge Cash allowed the an
swer TO stand.
Lingemann said his first cor
rect knowledge that the club
had been sold (apart from "ru-
mors'D was early in June 1914,
when a man (whom he identi-
fled in court as Robert Leion,
of Rochester), appeared at his
village office and asked for an
application for food and dancing
licenses for Blossom Heath.
The court at this point sus-
tanned the objection of village
counsel Harold Peterson and
Fred Schumann to Goodman's
questioning Of L i nj m n n.
Goodman had asked the former
village president if he had told
Leion there might be trouble
if Negroes came into the viii
lage."
Legal argument developed as
to the purpose Of Goodmans
questioning and the attorney
claimed the right to show the
underlying reasons" for the
license refusal; allegedly that
the club was a Negro one.
Subject to possible rejection
later, the court allowed Linge-
mann to recount his converse

Unlike other countries whose
relief is being handled by the

the result of a special arrange

Food, Medicine, Clothing
Part of the expenses for relief
goods now being distributed free
or sold to people in liberated
areas in the Philippines is Shout
dered by the Philippine Govern
ment. But the country had been
SO impoverished as a result of
the japanese domination that
even with the combined helm of
the U. S. Army and the Philip
pine Government relief for the
Filipino people is still made
quate. They are badly in need
OF food, medicines, clothing, and
other supplies. More and more
of these things should be sent

Government alone cannot cope
with the heavy burden of Philip
pine relief. 1t is doing its best,

Good Arrangement
Mr.. Hernandez said that our
people should know about the
good arrangement made betweenI
the Commonwealth Government
and the U. S. Army in the ham
ding of relief in the Philippines.
By letting the Army's Philip
pine Civilian Affairs Unit handle
the relief of our Government has
temporarily solved two major
problems-the problem of pro-

ton. OF course it should be
borne in mind that military OPP

ministering immediate relief toI

itatd by the Army"
