spector was found dead in his
car near the lake at Huron
Pointe, Harrison Township, at
OILS a. M, Wednesday. His

A length of garden hose had

haust pipe and carbon monoxidc
fumes had been piped into the
closed car. The ignition switch
vas on and the gas tank empty.
The man was Harold Tilly, of
2525 Montclair avenue, Detroit.
Coroner Howard V. Groesbeck
Jr., described the death as a
suicide.
Although no mystery sur
rounds the cause of death, the
mans family was unable to
shed any light on the underlying
reasons for the tragedy.

Labor Problem
Isles Acute
VINO ReIaxes
Area Classification

The townships of Warren and
Lake and the City of East De-
troit, hitherto bracketed with
the City of Detroit in a No. /
Labor Shortage classification,
today were relegated to No. 2
classification Edward l.. Cush-
man, District War Manpower
Commissioner announced this
morning.
Effected by the order are the
entire county of Wayne and ad-
joining communities in Macomb,
Oakland and Washtenaw coun-
ties, the VINO official revealed.
His action followed Tuesdays
announcement by the Army Air
Forces of the imminent cessa-
ton of warplane production at
Willow Run and was taken, he
said, in anticipation of further
war contract cutbacks in the
area.
BORDER LINE CASE
Cushman explained that a No.
l group is an area in which an
acute labor shortage exists or is
anticipated that will endanger
essential war production. A No.
q area, he said, is one in which
labor shortage exists that
may" endanger war produc-
ton.
'The district still is a border
line case" he said, "but by next
month it clearly will be a Group
2 area"
He said that the cutting back
of the B-24 contract, explained
as due to the fact that a heav-
ier type of bomber would be
needed in the Pacific theater,
presumably could be taken to
mean that similar cutbacks
could be expected in other types
of plane production of the
light type for which parts are
made in many Detroit area
plants.
At the same time, Cushman
said, requirements for other
types of war production in the
area are going up. In this class
ification he included light tanks,
rockets radar. and parts for the
BIO and B-32 planes.

RoseviIIe Brothers
Meet at the Rhine

ROSEVILLE - Cpl. Roger
Levillier, and Pfc. Walter Lew
illier, brothers, met for the first
time in two years on Palm Sum
day, in Germany. According to
q letter received by their moth
er, Mrs. David Locke, 1855
Roberts street, the brothers
somehow knew that their divis-
ions were only five miles apart.
Cpl. Roger Levillier, who is
with the Field Artillery of the
Third Army obtained permission
to visit his brother. Walter, who
was just a short distance away
with the Combat Engineers,
building bridge across the
Rhine. On Palm Sunday they
spent two hours together trying
to get caught up on the events
of the intervening two years
since they had seen each other.
They planned a second meet
ing in the near future, but
armies cannot wait for family
reunions, and a few days later
Cpl. Roger Levillier was given
orders to move on. Some of the
disappointment of not seeing his
brother once more faded away
and a feeling of pride took its
place as his company marched
over the Rhine River on the
bridge that Pvt. Walter Levil-
lier helped TO construct.
Walter has been in service
nearly two years, and overseas
II months. Cpl. Roger has COM
pleted two years in service, and
has been overseas six months
He has received the Bronze Star
for bravery. Walter has four
silver stars for the major battles
in which he has taken part.
Both young men are married,
and their wives live in Rose
Vile.

south with yells and shouts and
pounding hoofs, and their faces cold
in wind that was sharp and sweet
with snow.
From the moment Of leaving the
ranch Thunderhead was in a state
of intense excitement. And when
they had climbed the Saddle Back
and headed south, his wild eyes
and his nostrils and his pricked ears
never ceased exploring those noun
tains ahead of them. His mountainsl

He was hard to hold when the
smell Of the river reached them.
Ken let him 60 and he galloped on
the little trail he had made himself
until they rounded the hill and the
Silver Plume river came into view.
While the horses watered, the boys
debated whether they should stop
and fish, or try to complete the trip
that night; and because of Towards
limited time decided on the latter.
Thunderhead took the lead and
they plunged into the mountains. He
was filled with a fiery and masterful
energy. He had never forgotten;
and now that the way was open to
his inherited destiny, he was ready
and eager for it. His stations con-
seriousness had come of age at last.
1t was already twilight In the
gorge; and under some of the over
hanging cliffs and great trees the
trail led into darkness. But Thun-
derhead went swiftly; and when the
boys stopped to pause and look and
exclaim at the plunge of the great
waterfalls or the foaming cauldrons
of whitewater, his iron shoe struck
the rock impatiently, and his stri-
dent neigh tore the thunderous roar
of the river.
The scent was getting stronger,
and it maddened him with joy. 1t
was the scent of a destiny, of life,
of an Overwhelming emotion. For
not under the saddle or running ODE
diently around a track, but here in
these mountains lay his whole exist
ence and he had carried the flame
of it in his consciousness for a year.
That evening they pitched camp
in the park-like grounds not far from
the base of the valley rampant.
Picketed with Flicka below the
camp Thunderhead did not lie down
and sleep as a young horse should.
Only older horses, who no longer
have growing pains, sleep standing
on their feet. But Thunderhead stood
all night long, his body quivering,
turned to that rampant and the pass
into the valley, his ears pricked to
catch the faintest sound.
He knew it Immediately when, in
the early dawn, group Of mares
and colts drifted through the pass to
Craze in the park here below the
rampant. He nickered and started
to run to them. but was pulled up by

finished and another one as well, and
all the hay put up, that Rob Nc

the rest of the summer to do as they
pleased in.
Rest? There wasn't any rest.
September was here, and there were
only four days before the date for
which Towards return accommo-

But four days was twice as much
as they would need. So they an
nounced that they were off for a
camping trip, and Nell put up pro-
visions for them, and Thunderhead
and Flicka were hung with bags,

boys rode away up the Saddle Back.

An eight-day conference in the one-time
summer palace of Russia Cars, at Yalta
the Black Sea, in Soviet Crimea is the highlight
in the news of the week. Seated around a white
draped table, the big three, President Roose-
welt. Prime Minister Churchill and Premier
Stain agreed upon nine-point plan to crush
Nazism and collaborate for lasting peace
The announcement of the creation of joint
military staff in close working partnership
will without doubt result in the shortening of
the war in Europe. The battle lines are now
only 300 miles apart, hardly an hours plane
flight from the eastern to the western fronts.
The second of the nine points is the deci-
sion to split Germany into zones of military
occupation after victory. Each of the big
three" will occupy a zone and France will be
invited to occupy another. Complete destruc-
ton of Nazism and miitarism will follow, with
elimination control of German industry
capable of war production.
A commission will be set up in Moscow to
consider the amount of German reparations,
and how they should be paid. 1t is presumed
payment will be made especially in kind-pre-
sumably labor and goods.
The fourth point considered the settlement
of the Polish issue. The formula provides for
the merging of the Lublin government
recognized by the Soviet Union with demo
cratic leaders from within Poland and Poles
abroad. It also provides recognition of the
Curzon line as Polands eastern boundary.
A similar formula established the fifth

The eighth point was an agreement that

countries in measures designed to carry out the
peoples right to choose their own governments.
This is one of the most far reaching decisions
for it means that from the United
States may have direct hand in every Euro-

Two Make Teeth

Like her body, your baby's teeth
are living structure, and they must
have the right kinds and amounts of
certain foods to develop properly.
Though the first little pearl may not
pop up in her gums until she is five
to nine months old, her teeth began
forming during prenatal days. By
the end of the third fetal month
teeth have started to take shape.
Teeth consist of three main Sec
tons: enamel, dentine, and pulp.
Enamel is the covering of the teeth
that cleaning white coating on
the surface. In a normal tooth this
enamel is hard and brittle, forming
a thick, protective outer layer on the
tooth. Under the enamel lies the
dentine, which resembles bone.
This forms the major part of the
tooth structure. And at the heart
of the tooth is the pulp-soft tissue
composed of cells, blood vessels, and
nerves.
Certain essential nutrients are
needed to build good teeth. Fore
most among these is calcium, with
phosphorus running close second.
Vitamin A is necessary for the
proper formation of enamel cells.
When this is deficient the enamel
surface of tooth is ridged and un-
even. Vitamin c also contributes
Importantly to the development OF
pulp and towards making healthy
gums When vitamin D is lacking
in the diet the enamel tends to be
thin, Is often pitted and grooved
