Bingay's Salute to Butzel

turn, there is one man in all
Detroit who will never fail .you
and who, for a half century, has
never failed others who have
been in trouble. •

Fred M. Butzel, in a very large
sense, is Detroit's most .remark-
able citizen.
This community has won world
fame for its dynamic elements in
itniustry, the triumph of machin-
ery, the cradle of mass produc-
tion. The names of our great
citizens are household words
across the world.
But, what have we done for
the things of the spirit?
The worldly achievements men
set their hearts upon turn to
ashes and are bitter in the mouth.
These things have we praised.
But, there wells within us always
the inner voice of conscience ask-
ing if that is all.

Fred M. Butzel has never
thought of worldly triumphs.
From his earliest manhood he has

For a half century he has had
the unfaltering vision of a cleaner

world. I know of no other man in
our community with such a ca-
pacity for self effacement in per-
forming his mighty labors.
His charities are so vast that it
is difficult to comprehend them
all. He was the leader in bringing
the Boy Scout - movement to De-

in organizing the Community

creation of the Ford Republic, he

Fred Butzel for a whole half

century has been doing just this
in Detroit, knowing not race nor
creed in following the impulses
of his great soul.
He has been the builder of a
city not made with hands.
He has won the heart of De-

He is the wealthiest man in our
town because he gave away

He is the most self possessed
