LANSING, Aug. 4.-(P)-The
Ottawa County ioad commission
asked the State Highway De-
partment today to repair a rough
stretch in the pavement on M-21,
half-way between Grand Rap-
ids and Holland.

come to the rescue of the county
commission.;

plained the road has a rough
stretch approximately one and a
half miles long where it passes
over muck. Repairs would re-
quire filling and new surfacing.

division to obtain an estimate

tempt to have the surfacing
costsincluded in the revised Fed-
eral aid highway program. Ot-
tawa County would furnish dirt
for the fill and trucks to haul it.

Warden Announces Two
Per Cent Parole Returns
LANSING, Aug. 4. - R)P - Jo-
seph C. Armstrong, pardons and
paroles commissioner, told Gov-
ernor Fitzgerald in a report to-
day that slightly more than two

per cent of the criminal paroled
duing his administration have
been convicted of other crimes
and returned to prison.
Of the 3,838 paroled during his
administaticon, he said, 83 in-
curred new sentences for other
ci Imes. "It will be seen there-
fore, that slightly more than two
per cont of those paroled in the
18 months have reverted to crime
and have been aprrchended,
convicted and recommitted."
A little mere than six per ceilt,
however, actually violated parole.
The total of those returned to
prison as parole violators was
given as 243.
Armstrong said the volume of
paroles granted under his ad-
ministration should show a de-
ci ease over the previous bien-
nium. He said the 2,430 paroles
granted in 1935 was the lowest
number in eight years, and from

army Lauds Michigan 'Patriots'
Who Loan Land To War Games

Allegan County Farmers
Receive Citation From
War Department
ALLEGAN, Mich., Aug. 4.-(AP)-
i The farmers of Allegan County who
have granted the second army per-
mission to use more than 30,000 acres
of their land during the gigantic war
games in this area beginning Satur-
day were extended a citation for pa-
triotism today by officers \ of the
army's rent and claims section.
The work of obtaining trespass
rights on this huge tract of land
needed for concentration areas, camp
sites and supply depots during the
maneuvers was started last spring by
a detail of officers and enlisted men
under command of Col. Morris M.
Keck.
It was necessary to interview hun-
dreds of farmers in the region, ac-
quaint them with the government's
requirements and assure them that
the army would reimburse them for
any damage suffered by their prop-
erty during the occupation.
Virtually every farmer agreed
readily to turn over the needed land.
The farmers, army officers said,
were fully as cooperative as those in
New York State where the big army
-maneuvers of 1935 were held.
As an example of the type of co-
operation received by the officers, the
following letter from an Allegan
county farmer was cited:
"Received your letter relative to
land owned by my sister and myself.
We are one hundred per cent Ameri-
can citizens and glad to cooperate
with you for the U.S.A. Do as you
please with our property. Ruin every-
thing on it if necessary. Uncle Sam
is our best friend and, we believe,
responsible for any act he may deem
necessary."
Lieut.-Col. R. E. Jones, assistant
to Col. Keck, said today that the rent
Cleveland Blanked

sacrificed and Walker doubled, and
went on from there to score three
more in the sixth. Gehringer set off
that rally with his home run. Then
Simmon and Owen singled. Brown
passed Hayworth intentionally to get
to Bridges, but the slender Tiger
hurler crossed him up by singling,
scoring Simmons and Owen.
Gehrnger walked in the seventh
and Goslin and Simmons singled,
Gehringer scoring. Then Rogell, who
narrowly escaped benching only a
week ago because he wasn't hitting,
blasted out his homer to produce
three runs.
The victory hoisted the Tigers
within a game and a half of the sec-
ond-place Indians, but they were still
in fourth place since the third place
Chicago White Sox also won today.
Elden Auker, ineffective in his re-
cent starts, will pitch tomorrow with
the temperamental Johnny Allen as
his probable mound adversary.

land claims office has been moved
from Holland to the Allegan high
School, headquarters of the army, and
that the Holland office would be re-
opened after three weeks to clear up
remaining business and adjust claims.
The Allegan County region, where
the troops will start concentrating
Saturday, has been completely map-
ped and copies sent to the corps area
headquarters at Chicago where they
will be reproduced for distribution to
staff officers, umpires and others for
use during the maneuvers.
The present occupation of the 18
officers and enlisted men of the rent
and claims section is the posting of
signs reading: "Troops-keep out" at
various points in Allegan County.

Isle Royale Fire
Gains Ground,
Fighters Report
Six Hundred Lumbermen,
Federal Agents And CCC
Men Battle Flames
HOUHTON, Aug. 4.-(P)-Six hun-
dred CCC youths, National Park
Service men, lumberjacks and civil-
ians continued a defensive battle to-
day against gaining forest fires on Isle
Royale.
From the Lake Desor region came
reports of a newly discovered forest
fire roaring through cutover lands
and some timber in an area estimated
about three by two miles. Contingents
of fire fighters were immediately sent
to the Lake Desor fire, hoping to
smother the blaze before it reached
proportions that would endanger val-
uable timber and pulpwood valued at
thousands of dollars and would mean
the ruination of America's newst na-
tional park and vacation land.
Two hundred additional CCC en-
rollees, Lieut. R. P. Stevens of the Isle
Royale CCC supply detachment at
Houghton said today, are expected to
embark for the Island in the near fu-
ture. Seaplanes to provide aerial ob-
servation of the- fire area and speedy
contact with the mainland may also
be brought to the Portage Lake dis-
trict.
Residents of some parts of the
copper country choked and rubbed
their eyes today as smoke rolled more
than 50 miles across sea and land be-
fore a driving wind. A pale haze
made the moon red and ghostly last
night, and today drifted before the
sun. The meager reports by radio
from the Island indicated there was
no drastic change in the wind.
HOUGHTON, Aug. 4.-(OP)-Two-
hundred and fifty CCC enrollees will
leave for Isle Royale Wednesday
morning to augment 600 fire fighters
already battling two forest fires on
,the Lake Superior Island.
The steamer Seminole and the mo-
tor ship Mary Margaret were char-
tered tonight to take the men and
supplies to the Island. The enrollees
are being sent from camps at Mel-
len, Wis., Menominee and Crystal
Falls.
The fire in the vicinity of Siskiwit
Bay was checked today, averting dan-
ger to the CCC camp there.
Island resorts are far removed
from the fire zones.
Adjustments Of
Michigan Farm
Debts Total 581
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-(/)-The
resettlement administration an-
nounced today voluntary farm debt
adjustment committees in Michigan
handled 581 farm debt cases aggre-
gating more than $1,000,000 in the 10
months ending June 30.
The voluntary committees, paid
only out-of-pocket expenses, re-
viewed 920 cases and obtained ad-
justments by reducing the debt be-
tween the parties, reducing the in-
terest rate or extending the pay-
ment.
The 581 cases adjusted represented
$1,009,939 in farm debts before ne-
gotiations were started, and were re-
duced to an aggregate of $723,437.
The individual debts after adjust-
ment averaged $1,245. Reductions av-
eraged $493.
The negotiations, which covered

51,028 acres of farm land, resulted
also in the payment of $26,611 in
taxes to local governmental units.
