LANSING, Jan. 24-The cities and rural governments
of Michigan allied today in the campaign for rebate
ofe
Detroit evening times., 1946-01-24
ONE-SIXTH REBATE

Under the measure which the
and the cities are now
jointly behind. one-sixth of all
sales tax revenue would be turned
back 10 local units of government
on a population basis.
In an address before the super
visors yesterday. Mayor Jeffries of
Detroit charged that the state gov
ernment was now attempting to
finance a 15-year building program
out of excess revenues received
during a period of only three
years.
"We resent the state govern
ment using as a propaganda ve-
hicle the needs of the veterans,
the needs of the mentally sick
and the requirements Of the in
stitutions of higher learning"
the mayor said.
DOUBTS SPENDING ABILITY
"We doubt very much II the
$4,000. 900 which has been appro-
priated and banked for the
building of state hospitals, and
the S8,00O.000 which has been
appropriated and banked for
state colleges can be spent
within the next year"
The mayor emphasized that the
local units of government are not
asking for any part of the S110,-
100000 of unspent balances
which he says the state now has
on hand, but are asking only a
portion of the S27.60o,000 of sur
pluses which are piling up during
the current biennium.
Detroit evening times., 1946-01-24
KELLY'S PROGRAM

Kelly insists that the February
special session of the Legislature
give first consideration to aid for
veterans and then take care of
state mental hospitals and schools.
He told the supervisors, Just "a
hours after Brown talked. that
there is no excess profit coming
TO the state.
Brown put his finger on the
Sl10.000,000 surplus when he said
"The Legislature already has
appropriated nearly 2i,000,0 900
for delayed maintenance and
construction ut state institu-
tions, and very little of it has
been spent. I would add to that
the S27 100000 surplus available
this year and then we would
have about $4,000. .000."
The S5O.00O.000 which Brown
singled out, plus the S5l 100000
set aside by the 1913 Legislature
as a postwar reserve fund" al
most adds up 10 the Sl10,000.000
which Mayor JcffrieS finds in the
ctate'S coffpf.c

PAID 81 A CASE

McKeighan's activities in those
years are now outlawed by the
statute of limitations. but the
background testimony was ad-
mitted.
Layton testified that Mohawk
paid 81 a case 10 Williams IN 1889
and a similar amount 10 Fisher
Layton in 1910. These two de-
PENDANTS were associates of Nc
Keighan in distributing companies.
Both Charles Layton and Eman-
ttei Rosenthal. president OF Mo-
hawk, testified the commission
was paid for sales promotion work
and that neither of the defendants
was obliged TO contact the liquor
control commission.
Layton said he went to Me
-eighan for help at the suggestion
the late Isaiah Leebove, Demo
cratic politician who MAS muir
dered in Clare.
Detroit evening times., 1946-01-24

SO long as Kelly refuses 10 let
the lawmakers consider a new
formula for distributing tax rev.
enues, Mayor Jeffries and the
other cities leaders would be
blocked from getting a larger
share of anticipated sales tax
revenues.
Brown, however, has insisted
that "the state could well turn
back about S15,000,000 year to
municipalities an d school dis
tricts."
Detroit evening times., 1946-01-24
LIQUOR PROFITS

The other S9,OO0,0OO Jeffries
says is in profits from the states
liquor business.

iSlaturc:

manding officer, started her shake down cruise, going as far south as the Virgin Islands. On g October, 1941, "Artie" made his rate as Tor pedoman First Class with a mark of 3.75; and now had charge of the forward torpedo room.
 The Pearl Harbor foul blow caused the Grayback to rid herself of all excess furnishings and after stripping down to bare war essen tials, she headed for active duty in the Pacific area. via the Panama Canal, arriving at Hawaii early in February, 1942.
 After seeing with their own eyes the destruction of war bomb ing, it was a grim but determined crew on board the Grayback that started their first war patrol l5 February, 1942. A crew welded in teamwork, but wholly untried under war conditions. They were seasoned on their first patrol by destroying three enemy vessels and
 severe uSpIAl IIAol oI1eNNtNb returned to base with the crew in the best of health and spirits on 10 April, 1942.
 Tt was after this first war pa trol that "Artie" wrote his poem SUBMAN and mailed it to me, his father. This is real poetry and his choice of words, phrasing, with the depth of feeling expressed are very remarkable when considering it his first attempt0
 War Patrols 2-3 were now made with a crew seasoned under fire; and the Grayback demonstrated that fact with score of eighteen Nippon ships destroyed, of which eight were of warship type, includ- ing one large Jap submarine.
 Qt was during these patrols that R. T. Shaw's six-year enlistment period expired; and he reenlisted on board the Grayback. His Hon. orable Discharge from the Navy on 5 December, 1942, shows his final six-years average at 394. AS his father, I naturally take pride in this high mark, for it shows what any high school graduate can at tain in the U. s. Navy when hs

Graduating in June, 1886, Ted decided upon a Navy career, en- listing 13 December, 1886; and served his boot training at the U. s. Naval Training Station, San Diego, California. Here, he started with distinctive promise by being selected as the Honor Man of Con- pany 36-35 for the week ending 15 January, 1887.
 Upon completion of this training, at his own request, he was assigned duty on board the U. $. s. Cobra do; and on 28 April, 1887, made his rate as Seaman First Class. After two years on this battleship, he decided that submarine duty was his goal In order to qualify, he extended his enlistment two years; and completed his course at the New London, Conn, submarine school on 19 June, 1889, with mark of 3.52. His big thrill came when his instructor, prior to the posting of final examination scores, told him.: Keep that lick up, Shaw, and you'll make a damn good submarine man" Because of his high marks, he was allowed choice of duty and selected Hawaii, being attached to the U.S.S. Nau- titus. During his service on board the Nautilus, he attended Torpedo School at Pearl Harbor, completing that course; and soon rated as Tor pedoman Second Class on 28 June 194O, with a mark of 3.87.
 It was on the Nautilus that Shaw received his Navy name of "Artie," :" due to his initials R. T. and his ability with an accordion. Coming on board one day with his big new accordion, he was greeted by a shipmate with: Here comes Artie Shaw with his one man band" !" That name stuck in the submarine service.
 May 1, 1941, having requested transfer, he was assigned duty on board the new submarine U.S.S. Grayback, then in the yards of her builders, the Electric Boat Company at Groton, Conn. The Grayback was commissioned on 30 June, 1941; and with a full crew under It. w. A. Saunders as com-

really studies and applies him. seIfO
 The highlights of these war pa trols 1-2-3 from IS Feb. 1922 to T June, 1943 were:
 Pharmacist Harry B. Roby'S ap- pendix operation, with spoon and pliers, on Torpedoman William R. Jones, while in enemy waters.
 The sinking Of a large Jap Sub- marine in a night attack.
 The rescue of Navy fliers from a Jap held island; and, later, their receiving heavy depth charge at- tacks, which resulted in the Gray back returning to the States for repairs in early June 1943.
 These repairs at the 18th Naval District, San Francisco, Calif., en- aibled R. T. Shaw, now Chief Tor pedoman, to visit his parents resid. ing then at Tacoma, Colorado. Dur. ing his six short days visit in July, 1943, "Artie" described soma of the incidents of submarine life. These made 8 deep impression upon me; and after he returned to the Grayback, I started writing about them in verse form, trying to portray, submarine war life from the subman's point of view.
 The Grayback returned to the Pacific area with her skipper, Con- mander John A. Moore, few of the original crew, and many new replacements. This submarines ac- tivities were varied from his date on; but we know that she depart. ed from Midway on 3 February 1914 to patrol waters in the Yellow Sea. On 25 February 1944, off the Ryukyu Archipelago, the vessel re- ported having engaged the enemy without indicating that she her. self had been damaged. From that date on she was unreported and was listed as Lost At Sea aS of 28 March 1944.
 From various unofficial sources and submarine "Scuttlebut," l haV9 pictured the last war patrol of this aggressive submarine in my verse. LOST AT SEA.
 R. T. Shaw, GYM, USN, loved tha submarine life and his ship, tho U.S!S. Grayback. He had a deep respect for his officers and made many friends in the submarine Ser- vice. I have tried to portray his love of this service in verse form. Because so little has been written about our submarines and their exploits, humbly dedicate my three verses: LOG OF THE CRAY BACK, OVERDUE, and LOST AT SEA, to The Silent Service" hop. ing that they may meet with sub- marine approval.
