This announcement was made last week by James Vannoy one of the brothers in the partnership and the site for their sales is the northeast corner of Joy and Mid- dlebelt Roads.

In addition to becoming the first Kaiser -Frazer dealers in the RedCross, Going Reports coming in on the Li- vcria Township Red Cross drive, which is to draw to a close this week, are very favorable in most cases. The new system for soliciting donations is working out well, however there are some instan- ces where families who once more have their sons and daughters home and back from the service are reluctant to make their dona- tion this near. Evervone should keep in mind the fact that there still are many left in the service and the servicemen is only part of the work of the Red Cross, which they are undertaking this year. Throughout the world- there are many in need of food and clothing to tide them over until (Continues on Page 10) Clarenceville PTA. let Tuesday Clarenceville PTA held their montlyly meeting on Tuesday, March 19 at 8:00 p.m. in the High School.

Scout Council President Prentiss Broom Honored Prentiss M. Brown The 39 thousand Cubs, Scouts and Leaders of the Detroit Area were very proud to learn that their Council President, Prentiss M. Brown was appointed the Gen- eral Chairman of the Golden Ju - b' -lee committee—to "Plan for the Celebration of 50 Years of Prog- ress in the Automotive Industry." Mr. Brown was elected as the 1946 Cooncil President early this year—replacing Frank Cody for- mer superintendent of the Detroit Public Schools, who served as Council President during 1944-45. As a former congressman and former head of the O.P.A., Mr. Brown was much in the public news for several years. He was recently appointed as Chairman of the Board of the Detroit Edison Company and accepted,the Scout Council presidency only after much deliberation. "The Scouts are deserving of all the help they can get," said Mr. Brown. "I'm not so much concerned about the activity of bad men," he con- tinued, "as I am with the inactivi- ty of good men—that is why I felt persuaded to serve in Scouting." Brown's appointment as Gol- den Jubilee Chairman was re- cently announced by the Ameri- can. Manufacturers Association, sponsors of the Jubilee. Many prominent business and manufac- turing executives will serve on the top committee with Brown. Representatives of the press, ra- dio, labor and industry are also included. The Jubilee is sched- uled for Mav 31 to June 2 and will draw famous automobiling personalities from all parts of the World to Detroit. Everyone is cordially invited to hear Mrs. Henry Wiedettes review the book, "The Gauntlet" at Hope Chapel, Six Mile and Middlebelt, April 12 at 8:00' p.m. Refreshments will be served fol- lowing the review.

The amount left over to pay for the use of investors' money was about $569,000 less than the average of prewar years, although an addi- tional $36,000,000 had been invested in the busi- ness since 1939. So the average return on the stock- holder's dollar dropped from 71/2 to 5% cents. RATE -CUT RESISTED To attract the investor's dollar, the rate of Telephone Company earnings must compare favorably with the average of other industries — not substantially less, as has been the case in recent years. The future quality of telephone service, then, depends on earnings attractive to inves- tors. So Michigan Bell in January, 1946, appealed to the courts for relief from a Michigan Public Service Commission order calling for retroactive reductions of $3,500,000 a year for 1944 and 1945, and. lower rates for local service in 1946.

QQ00000d Back in 1914 The Detroit Edison Company dramatized the installation of a great new steam -generating unit by staging a "Banquet in a Boiler." Up until that time the capacity of boilers rarely exceeded 50,000 pounds of steam an hour. Detroit Edison engineers had been at work with manufacturers an an effort to develop greater size and efficiency. The result was this new boiler of three times previous capacities - 175,000 pounds an hour. That was a beginning—a Detroit Edison FIRST. Today, boilers delivering a million pounds of steam an hour are in use. – _ The first big boiler, built 32 years ago, turned out to be something more than a place for a banquet. Its construction developed a line of thought, experiment and accomplishment which has increased the size and operating efficiency of steam -electric power plants. This development has meant lower costs for The Detroit Edison. Company; LOWER PRICES TO THE CUSTOMERS OF DETROIT EDISON, AND. HIGHER WAGES - FOR DETROIT EDISON EMPLOYES. It was one of the accomplishments of this company, serving in its capacity as a citizen of the community, which helped to bring the average price of current used in the home down from 6.04 cents per kilowatt-hour in 1915, to 3.03 cents in 1945.
