tion of George White's Scandals,

ARTHUR E. WOOD

tate Salesmen Licensing Law.
These are laws that were either
introduced or fostered by former
Senator Arthur E. Wood to pro-
tect the people.
Previous to the Employment
Agency law, any individual could
set up an employment agency.
As a result, many were demand-
ing large deposits to secure em-
ployment for applicants and when
jobs were not forthcoming, there
was no assurance of a refund.
Now, however, such agencies are
licensed and a price limit is set
for deposits, which must be re-
funded if a job is not in the
offing.
Lower fire insurance rates were
at one time given if the business
man bought the sprinklers and
fire equipment sold by the com-
pany. There was also a good deal
of discrimination. An Insurance
Commissioner now does the ap-
proving and there is an adjust-
ment bureau for any complaints
on rates.
The Real Estate Licensing Law
protects the laymen by causing
the agency to carry on ethical
transactions in lieu of losing
their licenses. These are minor,
but necessary, protective bits of
legislation. Laws providing for
Mothers' Pensions, 01(1 Age Pen-
sions, tubercular sanitariums and
mental hospitals are even of a
more significant nature. In either
case, it was Senator Wood who
was instrumental in the realiza-
tion of this legislation. His ef-
forts, too, are responsible for
many of the present banking,.
finance corporations, building and
loan company laws.
A man with keen insight into
the needs and problems of Michi-
gan citizens as revealed during
his 18 years' service in the State
Legislature, Arthur E. Wood is
certainly worthy of the position
of Lieutenant-Governo•—the Re-
publican post he is seeking in
the fall elections.

Picnic of Hebrew Ladies'
Aid Society July 21

Plans are being completed for
the annual picnic of the Hebrew
Ladies Aid Society to be held on
Sunday. July 21, at Plymouth-
Riverside Park. Luncheon will he
served as well as light refresh-
ments and soft drinks. Signs will
be posted indicating exact loca-
tion of the picnic grounds. Ar-
rangements are being made by
the committee comprising Mes-
dames P. Shapiro, I. Janawitz, S.
Berkowitz, N. Roth. M. Kallush,
E. Goodman, E. Klein and L.
Kahn.
The society acknowledges a do-
nation of $10 from Mrs. Harry
Fixler for the Mother Malvina
Klein Memorial Fund.
At the last meeting of the ad-
visory board it was voted to do-
nate $15 towards the ambulance
project which the Women's Di-
vision of the American Jewish
Congress is sponsoring.

NEW YORK. (WNS) — Three
agents of the House Committee
investigating un-American activi-
ties spent 18 days in German-
American Bund camps in New
Jersey, it was disclosed here by
Representative J. Parnell Thomas,
vice-chairman of the committee

The camps investigated were
Nordland, at Andover in Sussex
County; Midvale, at Hewitt, Pas-
saic county, and Federal Hill, at
Rivervale in Morris County. Mr.
Thomas said that these camps
could be used very quickly
against important public works.
