A news story early this
week credited to the Associated Press related details of a State investigation
into irregularities in use of
Civilian Defense materials
and supplies in Clare
county and in Bay and
Arenac.
The statement that checks
were being made in Clare
county was first denied
here by C-D Director Mrs.
Ina Hammond of Clare and
Clare County Sheriff James
Darling, -and later corrected by state papers carrying the story.
An error named Clare
county when another county
was the subject of the check.
The charge had implied
that materials furnished
for Civil Defense were
being improperly used of
disposed of.
Mrs. 'Hammond told The
Sentinel that there Is a
very limited amount of
equipment and material in
Clare county that has been
obtained for special use in
Civil Defense and "every
nickle's worth of it is fully
accounted for and in condition for use as intended."
Her statement agreed
