their visit until little later, on
account of the food shortages in

ST. CLAIR SHORES - An
11-year-old Detroit girl, trapped
by underwater weeds at the new
Municipal Beach on Lake St.
Clair, on Monday narrowly es-
capped drowning through the eff
forts of Harvey Holman, IT,
year-old Lake Shore High
School boy, who plunged fully
clothed into the lake to the
child's rescue.
The rescued girl is Joyce
Hambly, of 489 Emerson avenue,
Detroit, who was attending a
family reunion sponsored by
young Hofmann's parents. Mr.
and Mrs. Arthur Hofmann, of
23O26 Hoffman, st. Clair
Shores.
The incident took place short
ly before dusk on Labor Day,
when both adults and children
Of the Holman group were
leaving the lake front property.
All children had left the dock
and were grouped in the band
shell for protection against cool
breezes, when suddenly the
faint cries of child we're heard.
SO weak was the Hambly girl
from her struggles with weeds
twisted around her feet, that
her voice did not reach many
members of the departing group.
Young Hofmann, however,
startled everyone around him by
suddenly dashing towards the
dock and plunging into the lake
without stopping to removing
his shoes or any clothing.
He freed the girls trapped
feet and carried her towards the
dock before many near the scene
knew what had happened.
Joyce, playing with an inflat-
ed inner tube, had decided to
paddle towards the end of the
beach rather than use the con-
ventional point at the dock
where the other children had
left. No one had missed her up
to the time Hofmann heard her
screams.

Any one standing in the way,
like Mr.. Truman or an American
doughboy, would be a sort of
devil who had kidnapped god.
The whole superstition could
be proved a fake and delusion
to the Japanese if respect for
reason could be restored there,
by factual research into accu-
rate history of their deified
dynasty--research by their own
people.
Japanese intellectuals who
long since discovered that the
line back to the sun goddess was
not only broken but shattered
by many historical incidents,
have been shushed effectively by
the emperor's clan, meaning the
ruling classes, who may change
faces from time 10 time but
never have changed their en-
peror story, which was the ex-
cuse for their authority and
existence.
THEIR trumpery, in turn,
would be just as easy 10
prove and display. The Japanese
people have been required TO be-
lieve, as co-matter of religion
and government, that the EN-
peror picked his cabinets, con-
trolled the diet and held COM
plete executive and legislative
powers. This pretense that he
was a Hitler was difficult to
maintain with a straight face at
times, as the various ruling
japanese groups controlled and
pushed god first one way, then
snother-in fact, wherever they
wanted him.
