Mr.. F. w. Classon, Inspector
Smoke Abatement Division
City of Wyandotte
Dear Mr.. ClaSSon:
AS requested during our confer
ence Saturday, January Il, we are
herewith advising the status of our
progress in connection with the in
stallation Of dust control apparatus
In our Boiler Plant at Wyandotte.
In early September We had received
preliminary quotations for installa-
ton of dust collectors on the boil
ers fires with pulverized. Due to
the strike we have been unable to
pursue this matter further since
September. AS a result we will be
four months behind the schedule
contemplated when we last wrote
you which was April IA, 1945. Barr
ing unforeseen developments, it IS
our hope that Tin the not too dis
tant future we will be able to place
initial orders for dust collecting
apparatuS). You can well appreciate
that after having the preliminary
quotations on hand it Is necessary
for us to do considerable engineer
ing work to fit the apparatus In
to ebist installations.
With the end OF the war and
concurrent with the adaptation Of
the fly ash apparatus to existing
boilers. We are studying and prob
ably install two additional boilers.
These boilers, if and when installed,
will be equipped with dust control
apparatus. We feel sure that this
program when completed will meet
in every respect the request made
Of us by you as regards smoke
abatement and dust control. We
believe that you may claim credit
for major portion Of this accom-
plishment, due to your fine work
in the SNAKE Abatement Division.
AS you have indicated In our sew
sral discussions. you are well aware
of the requirements which are time
consuming to obtain an installation
that will meet your Divisions strict
requirements regarding dust and
smoke.
As we pointed out Saturday dur
ing our discussion, 1t is our present
practice TO make necessary correc-
tons In operation Immediately
when any one boiler tends to pro-
duce excessive smoke. This practice
is a direct result Of your efforts.
We assure you that we are continu-
ing to give this problem preferred
attention.
Yours very truly,
w. r. Mitchell, Super
intendent

Honorable Louis Benin, Mayor
and City Councilmen Of
Wyandotte, Michigan
Gentlemen:
Several weeks have gone by since
a letter was sent to your Honorable
Body relative to an increase in Po-
lice protection for the Business Sec
ton Of our city.
The writer was informed that the
same had been turned over or had
been referred to the Fire and Police
Commission for investigation.
To date no additional word ha,
been received or an acknowledgment
from that Commission that the re-
quest was even being considered.
The period Of unrest and hole
ups which was referred to in the
former letter Is apparently in active
swing. A marked copy Of the front
page Of yesterdays Detroit Free
EPress is enclosed - 4 notices or
the one page alone. The writer has
been informed that the cities oi
Pontiac and Flint are facing serious
trouble on the same lines. Some
local activity in the same line ha:
already been apparent, 1. e. local
drug store case, and that by even
q girl.
Our Association Members and
other merchants are Of like opin-
ion that the ignoring Of this situa-
ton Is not In keeping with good will
towards merchants or good judg-
ment either at the present time.
May we expect some definite ans
wer from some other group as tc
whether we can or cannot expect
our suggestion and need to be acted
upon. We would like to have def
mite refusal to act ON the matter
