assessments in Ypsilanti. Informa-
tion on property assessments was
obtained from "a Michigan cities
of size comparable to that Of Ypsi-
lanti and arranged into a large
graph for future use. The Tax
Education phase was begun with
study OF tax rates and city bud
gets OF the "a communities includ-
ing Ypsilanti. This, too. was
graphed for use in explanation OF
the program. This information
was released to the public through
a series of newspaper articles.
The project continued with detail
ed studies OF several of the city
department which carried the bulk
OF the municipal expenditures.
These findings were tablulated and
graphed. and a written report was
sent to the mayor of Ypsllanti. the
common council, and the Board Of
Commerce, and, finally, upon re-
quest, was presented with graph

leading the caustic criticism Of
OPA, told the House yesterday
that "bungling and ineficiency"
have brought America ito the
brink OF want"
Revision OF the Food Administra-
tion was one OF many amendments
prepared by Republicans in the
face OF Administration efforts TO
continue the price control and sta
bilization act unchanged for one
year.
Other Amendments
Two other principal Amendments
by:
Rep. Wolcott (R-Mich.) would
hold the OPA extension TO six
months. with an understanding that
the agency must make another
showing before its life is prolong-
ed again.
Rep. Crawford (R-Mich. }
would require OPA to set ceilings
that would allow reasonable profits
for the average" producer in all
lines of industry.
Administration supporters plead
ed against what they termed
"crippling" amendments, contend
ing that OPA is the only sure bar
rie- against ruinous initiation.
The food amendment was prepar.
ed by Rep. jenkins (R-Ohio). It
would transfer all food pricing and
rationing powers from Price Admin
istrator Chester Bowles to Clinton
p. Anderson, New Mexico House
member who becomes Secretary of
Agriculture July 1.
Jenkins on Wednesday read a
letter TO the House from Hoover
in which the former president and
World War | food administrator
pointed to what he described as a
breakdown in control over meats
and fats and suggested they be
placed under the Agriculture De-
partment for pricing and rationing.
Chairman Spence (D-Ky.) OF the
Banking Committee told newspa.
permen the jenkins amendment
would Confuse" Administration by
putting food rationing and pricing
in one agency and leaving such
controls over other commodities
with the OPA.

Basic a Gasoline
Ration Increased

Washington, June 22-AP-The
80 per cent increase in basic "A"
gasoline rations went into effect
throughout the country today.
Motorists, using newly valid A-16
coupons. could buy six gallons
with A stamp instead OF four as
heretofore.
That figures out to an average ra-
ton OF three gallons a week. or
about six miles OF driving a day.
Previously It was two gallons and
four miles.
The six new A-16 coupons must
last three months through Septem-
Der 81. but they are good for a
total Of 36 gallons, ~ more than
the ALB stamps which expired
Thursday.
The so per cent increase results
from a cut in military requirements
as result Of victory in Europe.
For the same reason the B ration
ceiling was raised to $50 miles
Of driving month, effective June
IL. The maximum had ranged
from 325 to AIS miles in different
parts OF the country.

the characters were ideal types for a motion picture designed to thrill as well as entertain. The legend was brought up-to-date and the re- suit is one of the most exciting hor- TOT pictures of the year.
 The story concerns human vam- pire who brings fear and terror into the lives of the little towns inhabi- tants. Deeply enmeshed in the story's unravelling is the character of Webb Fallon, played by John Ab- bolt, star of stage and screen. Fall lon is man of mystery without a past, without friends, who has be- come the suave leader of the jungle outpost's underworld. Charles Cor don, Hollywood's latest discovery, shares acting honors with Abbott in the role of Roy Kendrick, off, cial of a large plantation. Roy's romance with Julie Vance, daugh- ter of the towns leading merchant, is threatened when the vampire falls in love with the girl and runs amuck in the town and in the adjacent jungle. The vampire is eventually exposed through the kindly efforts of Father Gilchrist, an understand ing padre, played by Grant Withers.
 The companion feature is another horror special, The Phantom Speaks" starring Richard Arlen.

POLI'S

Truly, every second of The Clock is heartbeat. This new hit, is now playing at the Loew-Poli theater, and it stars Judy Garland and Rob- ert Walker, brand new, grand new movie team, in a picture you'll want to see again and again.
 The Clock" is the tender, heart warming story of the romance be- tween Bob, as soldier in New York City for the first time on a 48-hour pass, and Judy, as a lovely girl who takes the lonely serviceman to her heart. Directed with genuine un- derstanding and handsomely pro- duced, "The Clock" is a success in any language.
 You'll be enchanted by the ad- ventures of the romantic couple as they meet by accident in New York's vast Penn Station, and there begin 48-hour romance of joys and sorrows that will keep you enthrall- ed every minute of the pictures run ming time.
 The picture is full of beautiful moments, as Judy and Bob go through their adventures, losing each other twice in the big city in the process. They have a heart breakingly hilarious time trying to obtain marriage license, and when they do, there are further touching scenes as they scurry around trying to find someone who will perform the marriage ceremony.
 There is credit for everyone con- nected with the picture. Judy and Bob turn in their best performances and supporting actors Keenan Wynn, James Gleason, Ruth Brady and Marshall Thompson are out standing in their roles. Wynn, by the way as a happy inebriate try ing to be sociable, turns in one of the most hilarious scenes ever filmed in lunchroom episode with Miss Garland, Walker and Gleason.
 Theatergoers far from Manhattan will know what it's like to Meet Me at the Astor," for when Bob meets Judy for their dinner date, it's in an exact reproduction of the lobby Of the Astor Hotel. All these sets in "The Clock" will and have served a double purpose. They're a glimpse of home for nostalgia New York CTS; and for those who have never visited this fabulous city, they're a realistic, thrilling first-hand peak at the sights!
 The co-feature will be Gentle Annie, Gun girl of the west. with James Craig, Donna Reed, and Mar jorie Main.

Of course, this contract could have been defeated had South over taken the diamond and cashed the ace of spades, or if North, after winning the first diamond, had shifted to a spade.

 Hollywood, June 2e-WP)-Aie- amy charges we're to be filed today against David Hardy, haudsonae "dancehall daddy accused by three middle-aged matrons of naarryiue and deserting them without benefit of divorce.
 The dancing casanova, who mar ried at least seven times before he lost faith in women. told detec- tive A. R. Long he would plead guilty if he could be sure the judge would sentence him to go into the Army.
 If he were killed, Hardy reason- ed, his spouses could split his $l0y000 army life insurance policy three ways.
 Both dancing and marrying were at temporary halt for the debou- air, 46-year-old boilermaker. who police said freely admitted he had married lots of women"
 q don't know what attracts them to me-" he said.
 They chased me. I met them all in dance bathrooms, and they fell all over me"
 Hardy said he ''lost faith in all women" after wife No. 3, Mrs. Dor othy Betts Hardy, his real love- tracked him down in a dance hall when he made off with $500 of her late husbands insurance money. |
 Mrs. Betts- Hardy was swell" he said, but he left her three days after their marriage because he couldn't take her dancing for fear of meeting his other wives.
 If she'd have me, I'd go back to her on my knees" he said.
 The tiny, gray-haired widow showed up at the jail yesterday with cigarettes and a pair of new over alls for her wandering mate. Sha declared she still loved that man" and would stick with him to the bitter end"
 As for his other current nuptial ventures, Hardy said it wasn't his fault that they had come to grief.
 Wife No. l, Mrs. Della Mast Hardy, whom he wed March 24, 1914 after a ballroom romance was "al- ways running around" he said. T never knew where she was, % ! left
 Mrs. Mast-Hardys story was that after three months of welded bliss Hardy borrowed" $750 and left her stranded on a downtown street cor- ner.
 Hardy complained that wife No. 2, Mrs. Helen Sisson Hardy, whom he married last October 5, after an evening at Crystal Ballroom, was "extravagant and ate all the time"
 She bought 34-pound turkey on Thanksgiving for four people" he said
 Mrs. Sisson-H Hardy, who appeared at the jail with Hardys 13-year- old daughter by a previous marriage said she and Hardy were happy for six months until he vanished with | $750 of her money. Police counted two more certain" | wives - Lillian Alexander, who married Hardy in 1919 and died In 1921 and Pauline Strucken, who wed Hardy in 1928 and died in 1882. One other, they said, had died, and one had been divorced.

 Early in the war they reaped lot of praise and got their pic- lures in the paper for the unusual jobs they were doing and doing well.
 They've been we'll treated dur ing the war and their services have been fought for.
 But unless they want to be bit- terly disappointed they had bet ter not expect any gratitude - not even from the employel- who did the most to coax them to work.
 AS soon as the men are back these women are going to find out once again that the world of busi- ness is mans world. And that few men really believe that women should be given equal breaks when 1t comes to pay, chances at promo tion, responsibility, recognition, etc. LITTLE GRATITUDE
 There is going to be very little gratitude for the thousands of women who helped to keep the country going in war time - once the war is over.
 If they face that fact now, then they won't be disappointed.
 There is only one place where women have the say about how things are run or stand on an equal footing with men, and that is in the home.
 It's still a mans world outside the home-as women will discover, when they again start to compete with men for jobs. And all the thanks they can expect for the help they gave their country during the war is the personal satisfaction it gave them to have a chance to serve
