CIO Will Spend Fortune
To Dominate Legislature
Alger Hopes State-Minded Voters
Will Unite To Support Proposal 3
Republican candidate for governor, Secretary ot State Fred M.
Alger, told audiences in various
parts of tlie state this week that
one of the grave dangers confronting: the voters is the increased
threat of ClO-Political Action Committee dominance of the state gov-
evnment, through promotidn and
passage of their plan for reapportioning the legislature.
"The Politcal Action Committee
-of the CIO," Alger says, "is reported to have a war chest of $200,000
for the purpose ot promoting Proposal No. 2 on the constitutional
amendment ballot, which would
give four industrial counties in
-which the CIO has its greatest
voting strength a preponderance
of power in the legislature. This
is apportionment on the basis of
population alone.
"A bulletin recently issued by
the Muskegon County CIO indicated that for Muskegon alone, the
reapportionment fund is $9,000.
That points up how important it
is, to the CIO, to pass this amend-
men which would greatly add to
their strangle hold upon the
state's  government."
Calling upon the people to unite
behind Proposal No. 3 on the same
ballot, which would reapportion
the legislature on the basis of population plus area, Alger said that
if the CIO-PAC proposal' passed,
there also would be danger that
this pressure group might also
eveutually have the controlling
hand in revising the state charter
under which Michigan's 6 million
citizens must live.
"One of these days," Alger
pointed out, '"we will hara a eon-

state charter. Delegates to that
convention wilt be selected on the

Passing School
Bus Brings $100
Fine Tuesday
*-■     ■ '
Howard Cook, of R-2, Farwell,
was arrested by State Police
Tuesday when he allegedly passe*
two cars aud school bus which was
discharging pupils, on the right
side.
He was arraigned the same day
before Judge Ryan in Mt. Pleasant
Municipal Court, plead guilty of
reckless driving, and was fined
$100 and $4,60 costs. Cook was
given his choice of paying the fine
or spending 90 days in jail.
It was charged that when a
Clare school bus stopped three
miles south of the city on US-27 to
discharge pupils aud two other
cars stopped behind the bus, Cook
passed all three cars on the right
hand side.
Supt. of Schools Thomas Campbell reminds us that the Stale Law
provides that when a school bus
stops to take on or discharge pupils, • all cars must stop for the
bus.
This is the second violation of
this nature in less than a month,
involving a Clare school bus, and
although no school children have
been injured as yet, it is very dangerous to pass a bus when they are
getting on or leaving.

Conservation Department
Curbing Deer Starvation
The* second and last of a series
of stories concerning the control of
the deer herd in Michigan follows:
Pheasant season will, this year,
be moved back from October 15 to
October 20. This was not done by
the Conservation Department but
is a Legislative act. It was passed
in order to give an additional 5
days during harvest season to get
crops such as navy beans and soy
beans out- of the fields' before the
huuting season. These crops have
been severely damaged in the past
years by the hunter army. This
does not mean that the pheasant
season will be shorter than last
year but rather that the season
will start and end 5 days later than
fast year. This difference in opening days on grouse and pheasants
will undoubtedly cause a greater
gunning pressure on both species
■than formerly occured. With the
simultaneous openings, the hunters
were split between the two species.
Now they will be able to concentrate on each opening. This will, in
effect, put greater pressure on each
species. This is desirable in times
of high, population in order to put
the surplus birds iu the hunters'
bag rather than allowing them to
contribute to the annual winter l6s-
ses. In the past, the opening of
small game season came at a time
when the migratory woodcock
flights were already at the peak
or past it causing a loss of considerable woodcock huuting. This earlier season should permit woodcock
shooting when the flight is at its
peak.
There is some feeling that an
early opening on rabbits and grouse
will permit greater violation on
pheasants by making hunting legal
before the pheasant season opens.
This is probably true on fringe
counties where pheasants are
found near grouse country; however, when this complaint is compared with the additional benefits
of longer grouse and woodcock season, it is overshadowed. I believe
these violations will not be great
enough to interfere with the success of legal hunters, but we ask
the support of law abiding hunters
by reporting known violations In
order to keep these violations
down to a minimum.
Judging from preliminary reports
on the breeding success of pheasants this summer, it is likely that
Michigan's pheasant kill will exceed 1,000,000 cock pheasant for
tlie first time since 1945', thus we
can look for an excellent season
on these birds.
A regulated, controlled harvest
ot antlerless deer Is in prospect for
this fall; This will be the first organized harvest of this annual
crop in eastern Michigan since the
advent of the buck law. It should
be kept in mind, however, that this
doe aud fawn "kill has been thoroughly studied and the kill will be
controlled by the issuing of permits
for special areas. Applications for
these permits should be available
at Conservation Headquarters and
license dealers by appi-oximately
September 1st. Regulations concerning these seasons will be set
up by the Conservation Commission at their nest regular meeting.
It is a well known fact that the
Michigan deer herd has built up
beyond the available food supply.
Large areas in deer country have
had the winter food supply nearly
destroyed. In many cases to the
extent that it is doubtful it it will
ever return to its former abundance. Deer have been starving in
great number, the actual number
depending on the severity of the
winter. An estimated 40,000 deer
starved in 1950-51 and 10,000 more
in 1951-52, A large part of this starvation loss could have been prevented by long term deer herd management and a better harvest o
the annual crop. How many years
it will take to bring the herd to a balance with its food supply is not
known but in order to prevent over
shooting in some areas, a definitely
conservative approach is being rec-
commended this year. Only those
areas where over bro'wsing is evident or where severe damage to
farm and orchard crops is- occur-
ing will be included in this year's
Special harvest. Good visual boundaries are necessary. Therefore
some small areas "may be taken in
so as to include these problem
areas.
In an attempt to satisfy as many
hunters as possible and to better
control the deer take, the buck
season will be continued this year
as in past years with possilby some
changes. This will enable the
buck hunters to have their time in
the woods before the special season occurs.' Those hunters With
permits and ho deer as yet will be
permitted to continue their hum
through the special season or until
they get their deer but during this
season, any deer will be legal game.
By this method, we hope to harvest
at least th© annual increase in the
deer herd. When the results are
known it will enable us to better
plan for future years. The "main
thing that should be borne in mind
besides the need for this additional harvest ,is that this will not
be indiscritnihaiit slaughter but a
control harvest of a surplus crop.
Students Entering
The "Voice Of
Democracy" Contest
The response this year for the
"Voice of Democracy" contest has
been a Highly successful one. Nine
students are participating; they
arc John Colmus, Joyce Thayer, Irvin Ruby, Ted Hoersch, Madeline
Brockway, Joyce Holbrook Helen
Cook, Carolyn Carter, and Roger
Brinkerhoff. These students are
working very hard and making an
all out effort for Clare to take first
place again this year,
Dick-Ulrich took high honors last
year, and in doing so won a $50
war bond, a radio, and a trophy.
That is a goa'l for all to work toward.
Robert Acker, representing the
Junior Chamber of Commerce, of
Mt. Pleasant met the contestants
Tuesday morning. He gave suggestions and pointed out the rules to
the students taking part. They
found this information both interesting and helpful.
With the talent and the number
taking part, Clare should be as
successful this year as it was last.

Alger On Tour Entertained By County Republicans
Alger  Speaks Three Times
In Clare County Saturday
A representative group of Clare county Republicans met
Gubernatorial candidate Fred M. Alger at the Clare airport
Saturday afternoon, when he flew here for three campaign
speeches and a dinner at Hotel Doherty in the evening.
In Farwell, Mr. Alger was presented by Mayor Fred Sie-
gle, in the village park. Alger said that we are facing this
fall the most important campaign in many years—a struggle of Republicans and Americans against Socialism and the
Labor Party, for control of our state.
He said that if reapportionment Amendment (No. 2) is
not defeated, the four counties of Wayne, Oakland, Genesee and Saginaw will dominate the State Legislature. That
three delegates from each of these counties will go to a Constitutional Convention to rewrite our State Constitution.
-*-» ** He urged all present to vote
yes on Amendment No. 3, for
a balanced Legislature, favored by the Farm Bureau and
other similar  organizations.
More than 200 heard Mr.
Alger, with several business
places closing during his stay
in Farwell.
In   Clare   Mayor   Howard
Everts presented Mr.  Alger
at  the   city  hall,   where   he-
gave his second talk in the
Aounty, s
Mr. Alger said that he hoped all are sufficiently interested to examine the several
candidates and their platforms and to go to the polls
and vote for worthy candidates in November.
He said that Michigan has'
been termed the "Pilot State"
for the Socialistic Party,
which the Democratic Party
has become. He spoke highly
of Gen. Eisenhauer and the
Republican state ticket and
promised a competent administration at Lansing, which
has been sadly lacking the
past four years, if this ticket
is elected. He made special
mention of Mayor Cederberg,
of Bay City, and highly rep-
ommended him for Congressman for this, district.
Atty. Harold B, Hughes, chairman of the Clare County Republican Committee, as toastmaster,*
presented Mr. Alger at the dinner
at the Hotel Doherty.
Rev. Oscar Witt Olson said invocation preceding the dinner.

Mabel Mulder, prominent. Clare *
county Republican workers, and
the editors of the Clare county
newspapers.
Mr. Hughes said that in the last
election there were a good many
who did not vote and urged all to
be sure they were registered and
go to the polls and do their duty
in November.
Mr. Hughes presented Mr. Alger
as speaker of the evening and the
latter said that he feels the independent vote is turning and that
Michigan Republicans have been
leceiving support from unexpected
sources in this campaign.
Alger stated that William's only
solution to problems of state economy seems to be increased, taxes
and that here he (Alger) differed,
that he believes in reducing expenditures.
He spoke again of the advisability of voting no on proposed
amendment No. 2 and yes oh
amendment^ No. 3.
He said that one group, like the
C.I.O.-Political Action Committee,
tells us that "People, not pine
stumps, should make the law."
Another group points out that 100
acres of factories might produce
more in the form of wealth and
employment, but that they could
produce nothing at all without the
food that is produced on ourfarm
acreage.
In closing his talk, Mr. Alger
i Bcommended Charles King, Republican approved non-partisan
candidate for Justice of the Supreme Court, as a highly capable
and commendable man.
