THE PLYMOUTH MAIL VOL. 46, No. 42 PLYMOUTH, MICHIGAN FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2nd, 3j932 $1.50 PER YEAR IN ADVANCE MAY ABOLISH Waging Campaign For Nomination State Legislature Will Be Asked To Pass Upon Question If legislalkm that is now being proposed thrvHghout the state .should be enacted (luring the forth- coming session of the legislature there may no.more Plymouth town- ship. If it is not abolished, some othp$ township may be joined to Plymouth township. It Inis become known in the past few days that a numtxer of tax-saving groups in the state have started agitation to abolish all townships. If they see that this cannot be done, they pro- pose to consolidate many of them. I It will be recalled that a number of years ago a uuinlter of residents] in the northern part of old Plym- outh township had the state legisla-1 ture pass an act dividing Plymouth township into two towiwhips, mak- , ing Northville township the north half of what had l»eeu Plymouth | township. At that time or since, it is pointed out, thut there has never ] been a single reason in the world i why this division should have taken ! place, except to create additional I township jobs. If some of .he bills thut are being 1 prepared should be enacted, not, i.uiy would townships like llym-. outh and Northville be united, but [ several other adjoining townships J might be made into one big town- j ship, one group of officials serving all of them. Another bill that is to I l>e presented, according to those in a position to know, provides for tin- abolishment of all townships. The Detroit Free Press recently printed the following article about some of the projmsed steps that may lx- taken towards the discon- tinuance of numerous public of- ficer; : 1 Definite recommendations for the elimination of County governmental , units throughout Michigan, the con- , solidation of school districts and i for the abolishment of the town- i ship system in Metropolitan areas. I will lie made to the new State Le- gislature when it convenes in Jan- uary. The purpose of the recommenda-; tious is the lowering of the over- head costs of government, which add millions aunuallv to the taxes of cities, counties, villages and towns. There arc seven til.v Govern- ments within the limits of Wayne County. Detroit. Hamtramck. High- land Park, Dearborn. Lincoln Park. River Rouge and Wyandotte. There are is Township Governments.

While Hie passing of the ■moon between the earth and sun ' did not produce a total eclipse in 'ibis part of the world. It was near- ly so for the brief space of a few minutes.

Michigan. The island is fifty miles long, ten miles wide amid- ship, and tatters toward both ends which makes it resemble a battle- ship. Hundreds of small islands are found near the coast of the main island which greatly add to the beauty. Large bays indent the rocky coast for several mills and offer a most pleasani trip with a lanm-li. Tbi-n- are two small mountain ranges mi the island which run from one end to the other and show the birch and fir trees to a wonder- ful advantage.

    MAY ABOLISH Waging Campaign For NominationState Legislature Will Be

    Asked To Pass Upon Question

    If legislalkm that is now being proposed thrvHghout the state .should be enacted (luring the forthcoming session of the legislature there may no.more Plymouth township. If it is not abolished, some othp$ township may be joined to Plymouth township. It Inis become known in the past few days that a numtxer of tax-saving groups in the state have started agitation to abolish all townships. If they see that this cannot be done, they propose to consolidate many of them. I

    It will be recalled that a number of years ago a uuinlter of residents] in the northern part of old Plymouth township had the state legisla-1 ture pass an act dividing Plymouth ■ township into two towiwhips, mak- , ing Northville township the north half of what had l»eeu Plymouth | township. At that time or since, it is pointed out, thut there has never ] been a single reason in the world i why this division should have taken ! place, except to create additional I township jobs.

    If some of .he bills thut are being 1 prepared should be enacted, not, i.uiy would townships like l’lym-. outh and Northville be united, but [ several other adjoining townships J might be made into one big town- j ship, one group of officials serving all of them. Another bill that is to I l>e presented, according to those in a position to know, provides for tin- abolishment of all townships.

    The Detroit Free Press recently printed the following article about some of the projmsed steps that may lx- taken towards the discontinuance of numerous public officer; : 1

    Definite recommendations for the elimination of County governmental , units throughout Michigan, the con- , solidation of school districts and i for the abolishment of the town- i ship system in Metropolitan areas. I will lie made to the new State Legislature when it convenes in January.

    The purpose of the recommenda-; tious is the lowering of the overhead costs of government, which add millions aunuallv to the taxes of cities, counties, villages and towns.

    There arc seven t’il.v Governments within the limits of Wayne County. Detroit. Hamtramck. Highland Park, Dearborn. Lincoln Park. River Rouge and Wyandotte. There are is Township Governments.

    Rotarians Take AGlimpse Into The Methods of the Past

    Members of the Plymouth Rotary- club turned hack the pages of local history to the business methods and practices of a quarter of a century ago at the meeting held last Friday in Hotel Mayflower. It was one of those exceptionally interesting sessions, such as only a glimpse (Into the ’ways of other days could create. The idea was that of Edward J'. Hough, who had charge of the program.

    Ed. Gayde brought before the Rotarians some of the 'accounts, hooks and other records that his father used in the grocery business ill ye»es past. Gn his shelves he found-a box of old water-proof cups that were used on guns half a century ago. He even had the bill of sale of the caps, showing what his father had to pay for t hem. '

    Dr. Robert Haskell pictured the tremendous advancement that had Is-en made in the care of the mentally sick, pointing out that the methods of restraint formerly used are no longer employed.

    «>tto Beyer had on display a machine that was used by druggists of the past in making their various preparations, displaying also the various types of hotties that used to.line the shelves of the jlrug stores. *■

    Michigan Has Bat Little LandThat is Worth Homesteading

    Say Conservation Officials

    The chance to obtain ‘'homestead'' lands good enough to be developed into profitable farms was a pioneer opportunity, which has largely passed with that stage of the State's growth. The modern homestead lands are small tax-delinquent areas usually located on the edge of the agricultural districts.

    Very little of the hundreds of thousands of acres of land now reverting to the state for back taxes is agricultural land, according to the Lands Division of the Department of Conservation. Practically all of This tax delinquent property is composed of sand plains with the timber removed or burned. As a result the area that might he profitably homesteaded is limited.

    The economic situation within the past year has caused a flood of applications for homestead lands. Many of the applicants are men bom on farms' but who moved to the city. Others are urban residents who believe that 40 acres of land given them by the state will solve their financial troubles.

    According to the Lauds office, which has studied the results of

    miscuously. it is Indicated from the regulations furnished each applicant. The state makes an investigation as to the applicant to determine whether he is serious in his intent to farm. The land which he would acquire is examined and if it in not agricultural in character, the application is Rejected. To issue a certificate for suchJ land would be to issue a “starvation ticket.” the land office claims.

    The homestead laws require that not more than 160 acres lie granted to one person and he must not be the owner of as much as 40 acres of land. At the time of application for the homestead he must pay into the general fund of the state at the rate of 10c an acre for each acre granted. For five years he must actually live on the land and be able to prove that he is farming the property. During that time he does nor pay property taxes. At the end of five years, if all conditions have been met. the state grants him a deed to the property, and the homestead has become a “farm.”

    There are now about. 200 homesteaders in Michigan, engaged in “proving up" plots of from 40 to 160 acrys of state land.

    The bulk of campers using the state parks are from the southern third of the state or from Ohio. Indiana and Illinois. Because of the economic situation campers are not making such far excursions Into Michigan this summer as in previous years and are content with using the parks in he southern part of the state, the Parks Division believes. This would account for the drop in the numlier of campers in northern Michigan.

    Park superintendents have reported to the Lansing office that large numbers of resident campers who formerly spent their vacations in other states or in Canada are now remaining in Michigan.

    Famous Sink Holes Of Michigan Dae To

    Natural FormationAirplane photographs recently

    completed of parts of Otsego and Presque Isle Counties are revealing for the firfct time the real resemblance of some of. the famous "sink holes” to meteoric craters.

    The pictures taken from the air show tile landscape in the southwestern part of Presque Isle and northeastern Otsego Counties dotted with miniature circular holes, most of them filled with water and looking as though "pot shots had been taken at the earth from hiars."

    True "sink holes," however, are not craters .formed by falling meteors hut w'ere formed when limestone roofs of underground caverns

    ere eaten away by water action. Iiermitting the rock and earth above to plunge down into the cavern below. according to the Geological Survey Division of the Department of Conservation. Frequently these holes are about as large as a city block and have almost perpendicular banks. In some instances drainuge was cut off by the slumped in rocks and soil and the holes have sincepartly filled with water.

    Some of the most spectacular of the so-called "sink-holes" are located in Otsego County: one of them known as “The Devil's Soup Bowl." These are not true limestone “sinks" but are deep, pot like depressions in the surface deposits of sand, gravel and clay. Practically all of the Otsego "sink-holes" are filled with water and soundings have been made showing some of the holes to he almost 100 feet deep.

    A few miles east of the State Forest headquarters in Presque Isle County are several dry "sink holes" in limestone rock. In the bottom of these well-like holes trees fifty feet high are growing, and often the tops of the trees are 30 or 411 feet lx'low the surrounding surface level. Here and there arc found extinct "sink-holes" which existed long before the great ice- age as these holes are now filled with glacial drift.

    One of the most famous limestone "sinks" is known as Sunken Lake where the north branch of the Thunder Bay River disappeared into limestone cavern. This sink is included in the Fletcher State Park in Presque1 Isle County.

    A large sink lias been discovered foment!) the water of Lake Huron. The hole is in El Cajon Bay about seven miles east of the city of Alpena. The hole contains 76 feet of water while the depth of the water immediately surrounding it is only a foot or two. The caving in of a part of another sink, mostly concealed. can lie seen in the limestone bluffs on the west side of the bay where there is a large crack- several feet wide and several hundred feet in length along the bluffs.

    Generally, water filled sinks are

    POLITICAL DIRECTORY GEO. I. CARTWRI6HT HARRY G. JACKSON DAVID GORDONCANDIDATE FOR CANDIDATE FOR CANDIDATE FORWdDEVmALKEHBURG

    CANDIDATE FOR

    CIRCUIT JUDGE

    Wade Van Yalkenburg. candidate for the Democratic nomination for Circuit Judge, to fill vacancy, in Wayne County, decided to enter the lace after being urged to do so by his many friends and after petitions were circulated by his students and former students of the Detroit Institute of Technology where he is engaged to teach Economics. Introduction to Law. and Political Science in the evening department.

    At iiu curly aw. ’Ir- '»>■ VoJI“'”- burg, while being raised on a tat in in Southern Michigan made up his mind that he wanted to follow a legal career, hut was forced to earn all of his own education Iwcahsc ot The fact that he was unfortunate, or perhajis fortunate, enough to he lH»ni of poo* parents. However, his financial situation made him all the. more determined and he completed nine years of college education and three degrees largely by living from the income of odd jobs and clerking in stores during that time.

    Mr. Van Valkenbnrg Is qualified in an excellent manner both by Training and nature to hold a judicial position. Endowed with patience, consideration for others, a pleasing personality. and a kindly disposition along with hi* years of experience in the practice of law and self-training makes an ideal comhinatiou.

    One of the big argument* used by his supporters in urging him to enter the’race for Circuit Judge was that nn>st of the present members of the Wayne Circuit Bench were elderly men. having completed their practice of law. and naturally

    ultra conservative from long years of practice and opposed to most reforms.

    Mr. Van Valkenbnrg may l>e classed as a liberal, anxious to keep the courts abreast of the times both in procedure and organization in order to be useful for business men and individuals, hut at the same time conservative enough for the lawyers to reasonably know the law. on any defiuitt set or facts. Of course any other methods might create more harm than good as ats. torneys must always know to a degree of certainty* the nature of the law so as to projaudy advise their clients of the same.

    Little tloes Mr. Van Valkenbnrg care about ^ItT cases decided hack in Englam/in theUfitli century except for t(ne logic given or their reasoning, but in no sense does he believe that these old decisions should he used' as authorities for law in our present 20th century aerivity and speed.

    Wliar attitude should a judge rake in regard to ineffective and faulty laws? Should he continue to .Tpply them day after day even though he .knows that they are causing a hardship on many people? Should a judge assist the public in protection against dishonest and unscrupulous lawyers' These questions and others will be answered in the September 9th edition of this paper.

    party lias been busy balancing the budget for a war debt of thirty-six billion dollars placed upon the shoulders of the people by a Democratic President, and that just fort.v-four days after he had been inaugurated, while all during his campaign he kept promising to keep us out of war.

    ProgramPerry 'V. Richwlne. Plymouth attorney, one

    of the leading candidates for the Republican nomination for Congress in the newly organized 17th Congressional District, announces his platform as follows:

    1. The immediate reduction of governmental expense.

    2. The payment of the soldiers' tionus as soon as possible without jeopardizing the financial stability of the government. It is my opinion that it would lie advisable to iesue currency at this time to lie retired by annual appropriations on or before 1945.

    3 Immediate action on constructive banking legislation.

    4. To encourage legislation which will provide the working man with such continuous wages as will assure himself and hie family of the comforts of life.

    5. The immediate development of the St. latwrence Waterway.

    6. The immediate deportation of foreigners with criminal records who have not taken

    necessary steps to become naturalized.

    7. To proceed toward a mutual disarmament of all nations to relieve the taxpayers of the enormous tax burden of preparing for war. and until the nations can mutually agree and carry out a disarmament program, the United States should establish and maintain such sea. land and air forces as are uecessary to maintain peace and tranquility of the American People.

    8. Prompt and effective farm legislation.

    9. To establish and maintain a system of home loan banks which will make it possible for every thrifty citizen to purchase and pay for a home.
