WASHINGTON-The uniniti-
ated assume that wars are fought
by the armed forces. Our men
in uniform do face the bullets,
bayonets, bombs and torpedoes.
But modern war is fought also
by a vast network of ingenious
and complicated agencies and
departmental subdivisions and
public corporations.
With Germanys surrender,
some of these special war
agencies might have been ex-
pected to disappear, in whole or
in part, thus releasing man.

hard-pressed taxpayers.
Only one-the Office of Civ
ilian Defense-is being retired
Immediately. Loyal, hard-work-
ing old OCD had 1879 employees
in the fiscal year ended last June
80, but only 100 in March. 1t
had Q budget for fiscal "A" of
100000, but for fiscal AS 1t
has only $778,875.
OCD's departure leaves in
possession of the field, in addi-
ton to the armed services and
the merchant marine, a mere 40
major, segregable war agencies,
after ignoring the wartime
special activities of most of the
standard peace time depart
ments and bureaus.
OEM FAMILY
There is, for instance, the
DEM group - the IS agencies
that fall under direction of the
Office for Emergency Manage
ment. That group had 140,854
employees in March, of whom
9,819 were outside the contin-
entail United States, according to
Byrd Committee records.
Outside this DEM family, for
some reason, stand the Office Of
Strategic Services, censorship,
Selective Service, the Office of
Contract Settlements, Petroleum
Administration for War and
Foreign Funds Control. These
seven had another 1920 en-
ployes in March.

Japan is ended and, in fact, why
it may be forced, reluctantly, to

There will, undoubtedly, be a
few cuts. But if you really need
help, don't put off your home
work until you can get a demo-
bilized war agency man to do
it. The wait might be long.

Former Marine
Gives Up Outside
Tavern on Lake

While more than 100 persons
watched in horror, a jealousy
crazed former marine early today
shot and killed his estranged wife
as she left a gay Lake st. Clair
tavern with two Selfridge Field
soldiers.
The victim was Mrs. Andrew
Cremers, 23, of Richmond. Held
as her slayer is the husband, An
drew Cremers, %. Macomb
County Sheriff Harley Ensign
charged that Cremers trailed his
wife to the night club and then
fired five shots into her body with
a .22 automatic rifle as she
emerged from a side entrance
shortly after 2 a. m.
Arrested Immediately and taken
10 Mt. Clemens Jail, Cremers was
quoted as saying:
"If I can't have her, no one
can. She deserved IL"
Friends said that divorce papers
were being drawn up when the
tragedy occurred and that Gre
mers had been stalking his wife
for several nights as she visited
taverns with male acquaintance.
Last night, Mrs. Cremers and
some friends went 10 NaH,S-oR-the-
Lake, a popular rendezvous about
half mile from the main gate
of Selfridge Field
TRIES TO GRAB GUN
For several hours. according TO
the sheriff, Mrs. Cremers and her
party danced there. All the while,
the sheriff continued. Cremers
was outside brooding about the
threatened divorce.
When Mrs. Cremers emerged
into the moonlight, laughing and
chatting with her sister. Mrs.
Rena Carroll, and the soldiers,
Cremers approached carrying the
gun.
Mrs. Cremers reached out and
grabbed the barrel of the gun,
the sheriff said, but she was too
late. Cremers pulled the trigger
twice, the sheriff said, and then
fired three more bullets into his
wife after she had slumped TO the
ground.
One bullet went through her
left shoulder, three into her heart
and one into her right side
'CRAZED BY JEALOUSY
While his wife lay dead and
stunned witnesses Of the Staying
stood around, Cremers said:
II guess was just crazy jeal-
Gus OF her. I had told her to
stay away from soldiers and
when 1 saw her tonight 1 must
have gone crazy"
A husky man, weighing more
than 200 pounds, Cremers joined
the marines Nov. II. 1943. He
was sent 10 the south Pacific.
While in Hawaii he contracted
tropical fever.
After long stay in a hospital
there, he was sent back TO the
marine hospital in Corona, Cal,
and then discharged.
The Cremers had been married
seven years.
Sheriff Ensign said CrenerS had
recently obtained employment at
the Bundy Tubing Corp.
He was held for investigation of
murder.
