The court had entered upon the same day an order of suppression which contended that any public in- formation concerning the expanded scope would have "greatly hampered" the grand jury's task. Joseph Viviano, 35, former state liquor store clerk in Detroit, was bound over for trial in circuit court on charges of perjury before the grand jury, and Thomas McMaster, vice-president and general manager of the Arrow Distilleries, Inc., Detroit, was held in the Ingham County jail at Mason awaiting sentence on a con- tempt of court charge. At Viviano's examination before Judge Carr; Lawrence Horigan, 39, former manager of the liquor store in which Viviano was employed, tes- tified that the latter had sold ten cases of Scotch whisky and divided the proceeds with him, paying him $250 as his share. A transcript of testimony intro- duced into the record disclosed that Viviano had taken a "lie detector" test and that the state police officer conducting the test had told Viviano, "You had lied." McMaster was convicted of con- tempt of court by Carr for refusing to answer questions "which would not in any way incriminate him" in the grand jury's probing.

For Pan-American Understanding In announcing the lecture series, Dr. del Toro said that, "The Speak- ers, all outstanding graduates of Latin American universities, are very well qualified to present to a North American audience the various mani- festations of the culture of our sister republics. "They will bring to our attention what they consider basic and char- acteristic of each country and the general discussions which will follow each talk should give the audience a good opportunity to discuss further any matter presented, or to bring to the attention of the audience for discussion any matter related to the culture of the Latin American na- tions. A comprehension of Latin American culture seems to be a prime necessity in arriving at a permanent understanding between the United States and Latin America," he added. The lecture is open to the public. City Planning Elmination of Traffic Hazard Recommendations for the elimina- tion of traffic hazards at the inter- section of Stadium Boulevard and Packard, scene of two fatal truck- auto collisions within 30 days, will be carried out shortly, pending of- ficial council approval, Alderman Maurice F. Doll, chairman of the council's traffic committee, said yes- terday. Recommendations were based on a survey of traffic conditions at the crossing conducted by the State Highway Department with the co- operation of the city police, Doll said. Among the proposed changes, to go into effect, pending council legisla- tion, are a 35 mile-an-hour speed limit within city limits, pedestrian and traffic lanes painted on the highways, and enforcement by uni- formed city police of traffic ordi- nances at the crossing, Doll added. In a meeting Monday night the council authorized a formal request for the survey just completed and asked the ordinance committee to alter city ordinances to conform with the proposed 35 mile-an-hour speed limit on the highway, 10 miles in ex- cess of the existing limit. Previous adjustment of the traffic signal at the intersection extended the period of the amber- or caution- light, and hoods were put on the light, Doll said, to prevent motorists from anticipating the change and jumping the light. The 35-mile-an- hour zone would extend from near the State Street Bridge to Brockman Boulevard. Warnings of the ap- proaching signal wil be placed on Packard south of the intersection, Doll added.

Local Events To Honor Norway Celebrate Anniversary Of Constitution Today Today, the anniversary of the Norwegian Constitution, which was drawn up at Eidsvold in 1814, will be marked by two local events. According to the "News of Nor- way," this constitution is based on French, Spanish, English and Amer- ican models and "for a period of 126 years it remained unchallenged as the fundamental law of Norway. Up to April 9, 1940, the whole Norwegian legislation and administration were carried on in strict conformity with the Eidsvold Constitution." "No German oppression will ever be able to alter the fact that the Norwegians in Norway still consider it to be the supreme guide for their political actions," the paper con- tinues. Mrs. Charles E. Koella, Ann Arbor chairman of the Norwegian Relief Drive, stated in connection with this anniversary that she has placed an- other box for clothing for Norway in Lane Hall. This box, she said, will be at Lane Hall all summer. "Sum- mer and winter clothing and shoes," she said, "are badly needed." She said that the box at the League will be there until June 1. Prof. Percival Price will play a number of Norwegian selections in his carillon concert at noon today, including the Norwegian National Anthem.
