City Voters To Consider
10 Local, Sty
Local voters will find four state-
wide proposals, one county propo-
sal and five annexations on the bal-
lot Tuesday.
First proposal up for considera-
tion is an amendment to prevent
disqualification of electors who
have moved within the state during
the 30 days preceding an election.
According to Ann Arbor League of
Women Voters, there appear to be
no outstanding reasons for oppo-
sition.
An amendment to the state sales
tax articles in the constitution,
known as the Conlin plan, is the
second proposal. It changes the al-
location of sales taxes collected,
allowing a half cent from each
three cents collected to be distrib-
uted on the basis of population to
cities, villages and townships.
$800,000,000 for Veterans
Authorization to borrow up to
$80,000,000 to pay bonuses for mili-
tary service during the Korean
War is the amendment which is
number three. Armed forces veter-
ans who served between World
War II and the Korean War along
with those who served after the
Korean War would not be eligible
for these bonuses.
If proposal number four is
passed, the Legislature will be em-
powered to authorize charitable
lotteries. This amendment to the
state constitution was initiated by
citizens who desired to legalize
non-profit charitable lotteries.
County proposal number one asks
for a transfer of $110,000 from the
county general fund to a special
fund to be used in constructing and
equipping a juvenile detention
home. Voting on this can be done
only by taxpayers.
During the past two years Wash-
tenaw county has not had a build-
ing which could be used for the de-
they had to be accommodated in
tention of juveniles. As a result,
other cities in the area, including
some more than 100 miles away.
Five Annexations
Five annexations to Ann Arbor
rte Proposals
are also up for the electorate's
decision. They are the Ann Arbor
Hills subdivisions on Washtenaw,
two properties on Maple near Hais-
ley School and a parcel of land lo-
cated between Maple and Stadium.
City Planning Commission has
recommended the Ann Arbor Hillls
annexation, but has not had suffi-
cient time to study the advisabili-
ty of the other annexations. They
have indicated that the other four,
however, are part of the natural
and orderly expansion of Ann Ar
bor.
1934:
State Voters
Defy Sweep
Michigan stood conspicuously
alone in the off-year election of 20
years ago when the New Deal
swept the nation.
For the first time in history, the
Democrats gained control of the
gubernatorial, senatorial and con-
gressional seats in 22 states.
With a hold-over of 43, the Dem-
ocrats now had two-thirds major-
ity in Congress for the first time
since pre-Civil War days.
However, Michigan withstood the
Democratic tidal wave. Sen. Ar-
thur H. Vandenberg defeated his
Democratic opponent,dFrank A.
Picard, by more than 50,000 votes.
Democratic incumbent Arthur J.
Lacy was defeated in the. guberna-
torial race by Frank D. Fitzger-
ald.
Republicans were elected to the
posts of secretary of state, lieu-
tenant governor and prosecuting
attorney.
In Washtenaw County, the com-
plete GOP slate was given a ma-
jority. Of the entire county, only
one township and the fourth and
fifth wards of Ann Arbor went
Democratic.
(Ed. Note: This statement was pre-
pared by the Daily for the Demo-
cratic County Committee.)
The Democratic Party in Wash-
tenaw County stands four-square
behind Governor Williams and his
program for building Michigan.
The plans for an improved high-
way system are ready now. If
Democrats are sent up to Lansing
they will see that work is begun
at once, so that when the new
Straits Bridge is opened, there will
be adequate highways.
Our present unemployment com-
pensation bills are inadequate, and
our provisions for workman's com-
pensation are equally so; the time
to improve them is now.
Support Williams
The three legislative candidates
strongly support the governor's
plans for a school construction
program to meet the needs of the
growing child population, and for
increased salaries foruteachers.

of the farm marketing progras as
presented by Williams.
The Washtenaw County candi-
dates stand for the F.E.P.C. to
provide equal job opportunities for
all citizens, and for the develop-
ment of an improved public health
program, especially in the field of
mental health.
No Burning Issues
For the most part there are no
burning issues on the County lev-
el that divide Democrats from Re-
publicans. The voters must make
their choice on the basis of per-
snality, experience and integrity.
Mr. Oltersdorf, the candidate for
Sheriff, however has a well worked
out program for that office that
the Washtenaw County Democrats
MICHI
SOUv

Miniature
consider important. Two of the
chief items on that program spe-
cially trained and. equipped for
the work, and the establishment of
a training school for new Deputy
Sheriffs.
One of the cardinal points on the
platform of the Washtenaw County
Democrats, not only -this year but
ever since housing problems be-
came acute at the end of the war,
has been the necessity for a hous-
ing program for this area. Wash-
tenaw County and the State of
Michigan must take action to pro-
vide for adequate low-cost hous-
ing. The Washtenaw County Dem-
ocrats believe that our many new
and growing families must have a
decent place to live.
