London reports estimated that
the Japanese had some 2,0O0,-

Manchuria. There was no accu-

Manchuria was the starting

when they seized the three
northeastern provinces of China
over American protest, and Gull

Henry L. Stimson, then Sec

Fireproof
Design
Is Urged

CHICAGO-Lumber can now
be specified for postwar civilian
construction requiring high safe
ty standards against fire through
application of a fire resistant
chemical known as minalith,
which is so powerful that soft
wood impregnated with it can
Withstand open flames as great
as 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
Citing the recently completed
addition to the Mercy Hospital
at Rockville Center, Long Is
land, as an example of such con-
struction, wood engineers claim
that through the application Of
minalith, lumber now is accept
able for fireproof construction
where previously other mate
rails might be specified. Archi-
tects assigned to the hospital
specified masonry and tile for
wall construction up to- the top
joists, but then ordered minalith-
treated Southern pine for joists,
rafters. braces and Turing strips.
More than 5000 feet of South
en- pine was used in this one in
stallation alone.
Building experts throughout
the country are studying the
project with view to duplicat-
ing the plans for other types
of construction where the natu-
raj advantages of wood construc-
ton are desired. but where tim

Mac Pherson's car, according
to the complaint, ran down and
fatally injured Joseph Baldwin
of Warren township at the inter
section of Van Dyke avenue and
Orchard street, Oct. IS, l943.
The original warrant under
which Macpherson had been ex-
amined and bound over to Cir.
cult Court was dismissed June
2, 1914, when defense counsel
pointed out technical laws in
the manner in which it had been
prepared. A second warrant,
sought by Assistant Prosecutor
Fred Van Fleteren on April %
1914, was dismissed under cir
cumstances which have never
yet been fully explained. The
courts notation on the case,
however, indicated that the sec
ond warrant was dismissed "as
per Mr.. Held" (Wilbur F. Held,
Macomb county prosecuting at
torney).
HOT COURT BATTLE
The issuance of the third war
rant, that on which Macpherson
an oil refinery executive
will be examined next week, led
to holly fought injunction
hearing before Visiting Circuit
Judge Paul R. Cash who ruled
on July 20 that Justice Parent
was fully within his rights in
issuing the new warrant despite
the fact that the prosecutor has
repeatedly declined TO do so.
Macpherson, at his original
examination-early IN 1914 -
was described by witnesses as
having been drinking on the aft
ernoon of the day on which the
fatal accident occurred. He is
understood to have reported his
car as stolen some time after the
crash took place.
It has been the contention OF
the complaining witnesses that
MacPherson's car sped from the
scene of the accident and was
discovered abandoned shortly
thereafter near his Hoover road
plant.
In setting Aug. 16 at 10 a. M,
for the examination of Mac
Pherson Justice Parent is mere
ly progressing with the action
halted by the injunction suit
instituted by Macpherson which
attempted to prevent Parent
hearing the case. On May 70.
1945, the oil man had waived
arraignment before Parent and
examination had been set for
June 8, 1945. That examination,
however, was delayed by the
court pending the outcome o.
the Injunction action instituted
on MacPherson's behalf.
Whether Held-who has con-
sistently declined to prosecute
Macpherson will appear mex.

assign an assistant to the case

most damage that could be done

WASHINGTON - Wherever
military men gather these days
the conversation always gets
around to one of two subjects:
minimizing the Importance of
the atomic bomb and the pros
and cons of a unified command.
For some reason Army and
Navy big shots can't get excited
about the revolutionary aspects
of the atomic bomb. They look
upon 1t as a highly specialized
weapon with plenty of flaws in
its effectiveness.
Army Air Force thinking runs
something like this:
To drop an atomic bomb, the
target must be completely freed
of any defense. Unless there is
no chanc of fighter opposition or
ground opposition you can't even
run the risk of using it. For in
stance, at the peak of the bomb
ing of Germany the odds that a
bomber would get hit were
pretty good. If plane had been
carrying an atomic bomb and
exploded when struck by flax,
every ship in the air for miles
around would have been demo-
,ished. And if you sent a plane
alone, it stood practically no
chance of getting through with
out great fighter protection. II
the bomb wouldn't 60 off until
1t hit the ground in a crashed
plane, military targets
France or Belgium in the case
of the bombing of Germany
would be devastated.
DEFENSES WERE
ELIMINATED ALREADY
THE Air Force men point out
that when the first bomb was
dropped on Japan, all air and
ground opposition was eliminat-
ed. Then why, they ask, drop the
bomb?
