Travel Conservation
Is Still Necessary

This statement from the ODT
applies aptly to the people of
Key West:
Continued cooperation of the
public in travel conservation will
be increasingly necessary in the
coming months. The Office of
Defense Transportation asks that
the public forego all unnecessary
travel this summer, next fall and
even next winter unless the JapS
decide by that time that they
have taken all the beating they
can stand"
The ODT Vacation At Home"
program is an integral and inn
portant part of the overall effort
to conserve the nations trans
portation facilities. It's objective
is to help provide substitute
measures for vacations in the
home community, as it asks the
American citizen to spend your
vacation at home.
In Key West we have four
USO's, several social centers, sea
bathing facilities, golf course
and many diversions provided by
the Key West Recrcational Com
mittce.
By taking advantage of our
local facilities, you will not only
be enjoying the best kind of
summer vacation, without the
many discomforts incidental to-
day to vacation requiring travel,
but you will be helping to con-
serve the nations transportation
facilities and thereby bring the
war to Il splendid end.

City S Labor
Policy Wage
Scale Voted

Ypsilanti city council Monday
evening adopted the same labor
policy and virtually the same wage
scale as have been in effect during
the last fiscal year.
The salary list differs from that
OF last year chiefly with regard
TO adjustments for additional dut-
les. changes in operation or en-
largement OF facilities. In some
instances increased burdens on de-
partments due to increased popula-
ton are reflected in the municipal
remunerations.
Greatest change Is in the hos
pital where a force OF 81 persons
as OF a year ago<has Increased to
70 people. These Include not only
additional nurses, specialists. and
ward helpers but maintenance
crew as well. Since the increased
capacity of the hispital Is expected
to bring increased revenue, how
ever. this item may not materially
affect the city budget.
In the police department lieuten-
ants and sergeants will receive SIS
a month more, making a greater
differentiation between ranks.
The budget Is 10 be drafted at a
special meeting called for the eve
ming of May 81 at 1880 in city hall.

her intentions regarding the future
Of Manchuria and Korea. 1t was

sources today.
The question is whether Russia,
at the end of the war with Japan,
will support independence for

dominated governments in those
strategic areas.
The issue is expected to be

Stain was not a party to the
