County Board
Refuses To Act,
On Bond Issue
Supervisors Will Not Put
New Airport Question
To Voters In April
A proposal for submitting a pro-
posal to voters on a $150,000 bond
issue for a Washtenaw county air-
port was postponed yesterday when
at a special meeting of the Board of
Supervisors the airport committee
recommended that no action be taken
at that meeting.
This recommendation was approved
by the Board.
This means that as far as the
county is concerned no progress can
be made on the project until the
next supervisors' meeting which will
be held April 15 after the April 7
election when a new Board will con-
vene.
The $150,000 figure was presented
to the board by Dr. C. Merle Dixon,
chairman of the tri-unit airportcomr
mittee. This figure was to be the
county's share of constructing the
"project.
Under the proposal, the majority
of the voters would have to approve
the issuance of the bonds. In the
other a two-thirds vote majority
would have to ratify a half-mill in-
crease in the 15-mill limitation.
Dr. Dixon told the committee that
that $150,000 figure would cover the
cost of purchasing the land and leave
a few thousand dollars to get the
project started with WPA aid.

ever ready to help and' encourage
his students in the realization of
their ambitions. As a scientist, he
entered his chosen field at a time
when there were ma'ny problems to
be solved on the action of drugs. In
determining how drugs produced
their effects and how they helped
the sick, he worked with courage,
originality, atid honesty, and
achieved epochs that will be of
lasting benefit to mankind.
"In the death of Dr. Edmunds,
the Medical School has lost a valu

able teacher, a renowned scientist,

"The Medical School will be re-

Executive Faculty."
Nationally known for his studies
in drug addiction, Dr. Edmunds made
an invaluable contribution to medi-
cine in his research work into diph-
theria which resulted in the discov-
ery of a new treatment decreasing
the death rate from that disease by
half. In 1937 he gave the Russel
Lecture on "Circulatory Collapse in
Diphtheria."

He was born in Dorset. England in
