magnetically on steel wires but
the reproduction was poor. His

l2-PoINT PROGRAM

The commission approved a r.
point program proposed in the
report. Major recommendations
were these:
That the seven mile /. 400
square mile area be redeveloped
TO provide the highest possible
social uses" that industrial and
commercial uses now existing
in the area be limited 10 those
requiring water front, those with
extremely high property valua-
tion which would prohibit re-
location for a great many years
and those directly servicing the
east side.

RiUer Front Plan
Gets Final Touches
BY CHARLES WEBER

The cost and length of time
necessary to develop the citys
river front was under study Sat
urday by the city plan commits
sion after approval of a plan for
establishment of recreational, in
dustrial, park drive, port and gov
ernment facilities along the seven
mile stretch from Third avenue to
Alter road.
Under study for nearly two
years, the plan is TO be submitted
TO number of governmental
agencies for their approval within
30 days, City Planner George
Emery said. Barring major objec-
tions of these agencies. the plan
will then be submitted to the COM
mon council for final sanction.
Detroit evening times., 1945-07-15
ANSWER TO PROBLEM

Richard Fernbach, staff men,
Der, who presented the plan TO
the commission, said that develop
ment of the extensive project in
stages was the answer TO the
city'S long discussed problem of
beautifying the river front.
"Areas east of the Belle Isle
Bridge can be developed at rela-
lively low cost, inasmuch as a
great deal of the land is already
publicly owned" Fernbach said.
''In the area west of the
Belle Isle Bridge to Third ave-
nue., progress viii be relatively
slow, due to the existence of
buildings and other develop
ments which may be useful for
a number of years and which are
probably too expensive TO re-
move in the near future"

Production Of
Pulpwood Must
Hit Peak Level

The Department of Commerce
this week warned that pulpwood
production must be maintained at
peak levels in coming months if
the pulp mill needs Of the nation
are to be met. The warning came
as part of the latest industry re-
port on pulp and paper. just re-
leased by the commerce depart
ment.
"Pulpwood is a much more vi
tai problem to the pulp and pa
per industry than before the
war;, the Commerce report stat
ed, explaining that the level of
pulpwood production during the
war years.
annual consumption of pulp
wood in the last four years has
averaged over l6,500,000 cords"
according to the department of
commerce, compared with less
than IL, 1000, 900 cords in 1889"
with prospects of pulpwood
requirements continuing at this
high level, or probably increas-
ing in near future years. the
statement pointed out that the
concentrated attention of the in
dustry'' will be required to meet
the problem of pulpwood produc-
ton within the next few months.
In this connection the depart
ment of commerce praised as
Timely" the current effort being
undertaken by the pulp and pa
per industry in conjunction with
newspapers and the U. S. EN-
plovment Service to recruit $4,000
new employees for woods and mill
jobs.
Commenting on the urgent
present needs for more top quail
ity pulpwood the commerce bull
letin stated: "In the South it is
reported that the level of pulp
wood output has been declining,
and mill inventories dropping,
especially in the areas west of the
Mississippi. A few mills are re-
ported TO be facing possible shut
downs, such as they encountered
during the war, through failure
Of wood deliveries
The program of the American
PulpWood association on training
of men in pulpwood production
was also lauded by commerce Of
ficials as highly important for
a long time ahead"

ON THE morning of May IL the questioning
began, questioning which was to continue al
most without abatement until the day of nv
liberation.
At the very start of the questioning they
wanted to know why nothing had been heard from
Coils. j. P. Horan and Guillermo Maker. They were
even more severe about the fact that some small
detaehments of Philippine army troops and some
of the constabulary were making last-ditch
stand on the island of Palawan and in the Bicol
Peninsula. They reminded me again that would
not be recognized as prisoner of war until all
opposition had ceased.
told them would do what could, and asked
them to send to Camp O'Donne and release Gen.
Francisco and 1t. Silhavy, a Philippine army
engineer who had served in the Bicol Peninsula
Francisco and Silhavy, much the worse for
wear, were brought to my quarters in the Uni
versity Club and in whispers told me what they
knew Of the Bataan Death March, story which
made me sick to hear.
Yet I knew the Japs were capable of staging
other death marches, and would do so unless all
organized resistance ceased. So / quickly sent
Francisco, Shavy and Pugh to Legaspi, with
instructions similar to the ones sent to Sharp.
Nakar and Horan.
THE eonstables on Palawan surrendered with
out trouble, and the situation around Legaspi
soon cleared. But Sharp's orders of May 10 to five
Filipino sector commanders on Negros were
rejected. They enlisted the sympathetic support

WE WAITED three miserable days in our
rooms at Manila's University Club, while the
stubbe came out on our chins and we were re-
duced to smoking cigaret butts down to the lip
burning state.
The days of my early captivity in May of
1912 were ones of considerable worry. We were
told in effect, that we were not prisoners of war;
that we were hostages held to insure the success
of the negotiations with forces in the south and in
upper Luzon
What l did not know was that the Japs had
informed our men on Corregidor - including
officers whe, against all laws of warfare, were put
to work cleaning up The Rocks debris-that if
the troops in the south and in the north did not
surrender would be forced to witness the shoot
ing of 10 American officers every day those troops
held out.

returned from Mindanao, my chief source of
worry. He reported that MAJ. Gen William F.
Sharp had received my broadcast and that he had
radioed Gen. Macarthur, as l hoped he would.
Macarthur had replied, in effect, 'Use your own

agreed to surrender.

Atomic filters
BY George Fieldfnp Eliot.

There is new disease which seems to
be sweeping the country For lack of a
better name we might call it atomic
jitters." 1t isn't going to help us solve
our problems. The atomic bomb is
revolutionary discovery. The problems
which it presents to us can be solved
only by cool and careful thinking ans
planning. 1t took years of hard work to
produce the bomb. 1t will take years
OF hard work to find methods by which
it may be controlled, by which atomic
energy may be made to serve mankind
and prevented from destroying him.
Hasty action will only complicate our
difficulties.
Up at Dublin, N H., a. group OF
distinguished Americans met a few days
ago and, after listening to SCIENTIFIC
prophecies of what might happen to us.
came to the astonishing conclusion that
we should throw away our present
international security organization and
instead demand world federation, a
world government.
&x&
To this writer's mind, that sort Of
thing Is sheer panic, supported by very
little common sense. To any one who
was present at San Francisco, and knows
the Infinite patience and pains that were
necessary to get agreement on every
single phrase, almost on every word, OF
the United Nations Charter, 1t should
seem fantastic to suppose that the same
nations could now be brought to agree
on far more drastic sacrifice Of
sovereignty than was ever contemplated
at San Francisco.
To suggest such step before any Of
