Included in this week's issue of The Livonian are 3 cuts of once well known farms in the Town- ship. Today, however, only the sites remain. Most of these farms existed in Livonia 75 to 100 years ago, and for the greater part, were settled by Dutch and Ger- mans. "Livonia" comes from a pro- vince in Russia, which is indeed strange,, due to the fact that prac- tically no Russians are located in Livonia, which was created by the Law of March 17, 1835. Harry Irwin, To Relinquish Dr. George Timpona, in his drive to get a Post Office for Livonia Township, has contacted Harry Irwin, Plymouth Post- master, who according to Dr. Timpona has relinquished his claim to rural routes serving Livonia Township. Before the Post Office Depart- ment will consider locating an office in Livonia it is necessary to get releases from all the Post- masters who serve Livonia. In that the Postmaster salary scale is based on the mail handled, sometimes these men are rather hesitant to release the rural routes because of the loss of business. However, Mr. Irwin was more than cooperative when con- tacted by Dr. Timpona. The 17th Congressional Chair- man, Charles Nugent, State Chairman, John Franco, and Na- tional Committeeman Cy Bevan are behind Livonia's drive for a post office of their own.

As Ferry B. Allen, assistant comptroller, testified Thursday and Friday to close the company's direct testimony, chairman Stu- art B.

"The financial strength of the institution with all its implica- tions on the quality of `service to the customer is much more im- portant than any momentary economy," said Allen in urging a return of about 6 2/3 per cent on the company's investment. He emphasized that the company should not be required to engage in debt financing to meet its con- struction needs. All of the com- pany's capital is now in capital stock. Allen showed that the com- pany's earnings are substantial- ly lower than leading manufac- turing corporations with which the Bell System must compete for capital to finance construc- tion requirements.

The defense must be prepared in ad- vance. In the air and on the ground (and under the ground) the power company's fight a- gainst ',A'EATHER goes on the year around. Last winter was tough. Unus- ually heavy and general snow storms were fought with tractors, trucks, airplanes, horse drawn sleds and wagons and by Edison linemen on foot, loaded down with equipment and toiling through snow banks that could neither be moved nor melted. Service had to be restored and maintained. The summer just ended was packed with freak weather. De- troit Edison's carefully set up system for predicting trouble preparing for it and repairing damage got its most severe test in many years. Everything seem- ed to occur backward. When cool weather was indicated there came a heat wave; when it was supposed to be cold it was hot. August, the fifth hottest month DANCING i EVERY SAT. & SUN.

Throu shout the summer there were many "flash" storms, highly localized and unusually heavy'in rainfail. The result, of course, was an increased number of service interruptions, the peak coming in August instead of late June and early July as it usually does. Scientists are trying to do something about the weather and actually have made some pro- gress, but the degree of control that can be exercised at the mo- ment is no help to Detroit Edison. Progress in the science of for - casting weather, however, is of tremendous importance. Edison engineers, day by day and hour by hour around the clock, ze';l- ously collect the most complete meteorological information. avail- able. To obtain weather information, primarily on approaching storms, Detroit Edison makes use of its services of the United States Weather Bureau, reports from neighboring power companies, and the services of a private company in California which operates in detection instruments at high altitudes in observation balloons. The approach of storms often has been accurately report- ed as long as 30 days in advance. Here at home Edison equip- ment keeps close check on weather developments in all the 7,600 square miles of the South- eastern Michigan territory ser- ved. The company's static re- corder, operated constantly, re- cords the intensity and variations in air static. That intensity in- creases, of course, as a storm ap- proaches. To a degree, as ,you well know, .your radio does the same kind of a job for ,you. All of this advance information often makes it possible for The Detroit Edison Company to have its repair crews, manning 170 radio equipped service trucks, on the way to meet a storm headed toward your home area before you are aware the storm is com- ing.

The Alex Tinham farm-5r•onsis°ei.ng of 160 acres, was siruated ai the southwest corner of Six Mile and Farmington Roads. The Clarenceville P. T. A. held their regular monthly meeting Tuesday, November 18, 1947, in the high school. Mrs. Schroeder, Mrs. Lewis and Mrs. Trouteaud brought us some very interesting notes taken at the P. T. A. Conference on World Understanding at the Rackham Building in Ann Arbor. After hearing such speakers as Harry Overstreet, Preston Slos- son, Emil v Taft Douglas, James Pollock, E d w a r d Linderman Ernest Legon and others, the three delegates, two parents and one teacher, brought back to us us the realization that the atomic bomb means we must get an understanding of the peoples of the world quickly. Mrs. Schroeder said such a bomb can wipe us out. The United States must mop up the disaster of the war and help the destitute nations recover. We have everything to gain and nothing to lose in helping the needy countries. We must feed the starving people and start character training programs. We should revise our text books and take out of thein the glory of war. . Mrs. Lewis told us about the address of Mrs. Emily T. Douglas, who has traveled ext-^sively in Europe. She spoke of the tragic condition of the people and how great their immediate need. - Mrs. Tiouteaud held &-.i open discussion on Russia answering questions from the floor as well as she could from knowledge she had gained through the lectures she had attended. if you were not at the meeting, we are all sorry.

Bell Application Before Public Service Commission Hearing on the application of the Michigan Bell Telephone company for a $10,400,000 gene- ral rate increase is now in its first full week before the Public Service Commission. In support of its plea for its first rate increase in 21 years, the company has presented direct Wednesday, December 3, 1947 testimony regarding steadily rising costs which have increased more rapidly than revenues and forced Michigan Bell's rate of return to the lowest point since the depression. Karl F. Oehler, General Solici- tor for the company, stressed in his opening statement' tfie im- portance of the good -service objective in regulatory matters. "Good service", he said, "is much more important to the tele- phone user than a few extra cents he might have to pay to get it. Michigan Bell wants no -a.tes that are unreasonable." Objecting to a proposal by the Commission staff for separation and audit and appraisal studies at the expense of the company, Oehler contended the statute does not require the company to underwrite the costs of such studies by outside experts. He also pointed out that regu- latory authorities in "some 20 states" had granted rate increases following hearings without dir- ecting such studies to be made. Although not a part of the re- ord, Thomas G. Long, General Counsel for the company, recall- ed that the last audit and ap- praisal of the company's books and properties by outside experts cost $800,000 and took four years to complete. Representatives from seven communities and two commercial groups have formally intervened in the case. The communities are Detroit, Ferndale, Huntington Woods, Iron :'fountain, Pinckney, Royal Oak, and Saginaw. While proposing an increase in virtually every type of service that it offers and in each of its 252 exchanges, Michigan Bell is offering a new plan of extended - area service that would permit telephone users in most com- munities to call nearby exchanges ,,with the same community of in- terest" without paying long-dis- tance charges. In addition to the extended - area plan, the company's chief proposals outstate call for: 1. Clearing of :ate inequities as between communities of com- parable telephone development. 2. Reclassifications of outstate exchanges .into eight groups, ac- cording to the number of main telephones in the extended call- ing areas, with uniform rates ap- plying to exchanges in each group. 3. Creating of district ex- changes at Grand Rapids and Pontiac.

We're quite sure you'd prefer to share service the "party -line" way. That's why most folks feel we're right in limiting new residence te;ophones to party lines when- ever by so doing present equipment can be made to serve more people. It's through the co-operation of folks on party lines—many of whom, we know, would like to be on a line of their own— that we're able to bring telephones to a lot of other families sooner. It will be a great day when we again have all the cable and central office switch- ing equipment we need to furnish every- one the kind of service he wants, when and where he wants it. And we are doing every- thing we can to hasten that day.

He is coming home on an army trans- port early next month, according to the trans -pacific telephone call received from him. Hickie left the conservation department early in 1942 when commissioned as a captain. As a lieutenant colonel, he entered Japan as a member of General MacArhurt's staff. More recently, with civilian status, he has been chief of the forestry division of the natural resources of SCAP (Supreme Allied Command Pa- cific) . A highlight of Hick.ie's earlier experience as a mammalogist with the department's game di- vision was his supervision of the trapping and transfer to the up- per peninsular of several Isle Royale moose in 1936. , Thirty-one lakes in five south- ern Michigan counties will be opened to netting of ciscoes from November 15 to December 10, If your hair doesn't become you, you should come to us.

In the first two weeks of oper- ation, the new state fox bounty cost the conservation department $6,235 for 1,247 foxes. The rate at which applications for the $5 bounty are being filed still is on the rise, the department reports. An opinion from the attorney general confirms the necessity of notarizinig every bounty ap- plication, and rules that when a township clerk is also a trapper his application for bounty must be Made to the deputy township clerk.

Mobile service is an extension of regular land telephone service, via high -frequency radios squip- ped with suitable sending and re- ceiving apparatus.Conversations travel part way by radio, part way by telephone line. Fixed transmitters operate on a frequency of 35.42 megacycles. The power of the transmitter is 250 watts usually and' the range 40 miles. Mobile transmitters in the cars operate on a frequency of 43.42 megacycles, have a power of 30 watts, and a range of about 20 miles. The equipment in the vehicles for highway service, in addition to the receiver and transmitter, consists of a six-foot flexible an- tenna, selective signaling device, instrument holder, and handset. The installation and monthly charge is billed in the same man- ner as for regular telephoire ser- vice. initially by cartage companies, construction agencies, ambulan- ces, taxis, newspaper press cars, public utilities, law enforcement agencies, doctors, and delivery trucks.
