MICHIGANMIRROR . . .Deep concern was expressea
within the state administrationas the Senate prepared to inves-tigate the highway department.
Not since the days when Gov.G. Mennen Williams was focus-ing attention on the operation offormer Highway CommissionerCharles M. Ziegler has the spot-been centered so much on thedepartment's administrative prac-tices.
Considerable furor existedeven before the investigationcommittee was officially named.
Highway Commissioner JohnC. Mackie said he would ratherbe spending his time buildingroads than answering questions.
Sen. John H. StahJin (R-Bcld-ing), who authored the resolutionsetting up the probe, told Mackienot to worry. He intended to getmost of his information fromindependent sources.
Any investigation litttcan be a forum for powerfulthrust in the^drive by politiciansand administrators alike for fav-orable public opinion.
Mackie already has called onhis public information section toanswer statements by Suhlin.
Resources of the RepublicanState Central Committee's pressagent were thrown into the battleto help pave the way for the in-vestigation when a dispute devel-oped over right of way proced-ures in Gratiot County.
Legislative investigations arebarren of conclusions. Whenthere are conclusions, they oftenare not translated into laws orchanges in administrative prac-tices.
The lack of reform by law,however, does not diminish theeffectiveness of legislative inves-tigations.
Getting a point across to thepublic is often satisfaction enoughfor the investigator or the inves-tigated.

Both Mackie and Stahlin willbe using all of their skill andresourcefulness to do this duringthe time when publicity is focus-ed on the investigation.
A severe setback for thousandsof users of Michigan state parks.That's the way House SpeakerDon R. Pears described Gov. G.Mennen Williams' veto of thebill to charge entrance fees tofinance a park improvement pro-gram.
But Williams said there wasstill time to get an adequate andequitable financing plan readyfor the I960 park use season.
The governor's veto of thepark was" generally regarded asa surprise.
Williams, who favors a bond-ing program, shortly before theveto had announced he was"opposed to but not opposing"this year's bill.
It has been three years sincethe Conservation has had capitaloutlay money for state parks.The park fee bill, which calledfor an annual charge of $2,would have been too late forthe 1959 season.
During the past three years, ithas been a battle between thepark fee approach and bonding.
This year's bill would haveused the fees to retire a five-million-dollar bond program.
But the governor, who said 30million dollars was needed, saidthe program was "groiily inad-equate" and a "feeble effort."
Almost surprising as the vetoof the park fee bill was thesignature Williams put on a billrequiring reflectorlzed licenseplates.
Motorists next year will pay a35 cent fee when they purchaselicense plates.
The governor said he was forthe bill because traffic safetyexperts had assured him it wouldhelp cut the death toll on high-ways.
Opponents of the bill objectedto what they considered to be un-due pressure by lobbyists.
Sen. John H. Suhlin (R-Beld-ing) said a Minnesota firm wasthe only one able to meet specifi-cations for the reflectdrized ma-terial to be used in coating theplates.
But State Controller James W.Miller has assured Stahlin otherswill be bidding.
Stahlin, incidentally, claimedrumors were being circulated thathe was trying to tower the spec-ifications for the material so hisBelding manufacturing firm

The new type plates will bemandatory beginning in 1961.However, the extra fee will becharged a year early to build upa fund for purchase of the mater-ials that will make plates pick uplight and reflect it at night.
As one aftermath of the licenseplate bill, the 1959 plates willlast two years instead of the threeoriginally intended. It had beenplanned that tabs would be usedin the upper right haud corner ofthe 1959 plates in 1960 and1961. Use of the reflectorizedplates in 1961 means the tabswill be used in 1960 only.

CURRENT COMMENTPresident E
By PAUL W. CURLETTohower left last Wednesday on the first leg of his
trip which wBl eventually take him to Russia and a personal con-ference with Premier Krushchev and a tour of Russia. First he willconfer with Premier McMillan of Great Britain and Gen. DcGaullcof France. But the Russian trip is a lone one and Great Britian andFrance have nothing to do with it. The president will be on his ownon this. There is much opposition to the presidents trip to Russia inthis country among the conservatives who regard is as hyprocriticaland immoral. Even former President Truman is against it. Thechurches are apparently united against it. Most of. them want a dayof prayer Sept. 15 when Krushchev is due to arrive here and anEpiscopal layman wants every city visited by Kruschev to hold specialservices on the day the Russian premier cbntes to their city. Whilewe doubt that any great questions will be settled by this interchangeof visits, we are for them if they turn out to be only a gesture. Asthings stand now, we have only two courses before us in our dealingswith Russia, war or compromise. The visits are on an exploratorynature. They will probably lead to further meetings, and eventuallysome understanding may be arrived at: The Dulles policy of nomeetings was like that of the ostrich who is said to bury his head inthe sand when danger threatens.

These includedcoffee, tea, sugar substitutes and other things. At regards thedanger of cigarette smoking we understood it was the paper lawhich the cigarettes are made which caused the threat We donot read how the Vanguard people have overcome this.
The 22 Republican senators held a meeting of representatives ofindustry at Lansing last week and asked them what kind of a businesstax they would prefer. Of course, they said no business tax at allwould be preferable. This is like the old question "Have you stop-ped beating your wife?1' They also said the one cent sales tax wouldraise enough money to satisfy all state needs.: If the legislature wouldeconomize and cut state expenses. This is a vague dream. We donot know of any legislature that ever cut expenses. Instead they vot-ed themselves a wage increase this year. The state again managed tomeet a payroll last week by using earmarked sschool funds. Someschool districts are broke, particularly in St. Clair county where theyare talking of using script money. This was used back in the depres-sion days of 1930-33. By this means a city or school district mayissue script which is good for legal tender but not redeemable in bank
notes. In other* words it has to circulate locally.

Many Fires Have SweptThru Pinckney Since 1900
Pinckney is one village whichhas no wooden stores. This is dueto the fact that in yean pastmany fires swept Pinckney anddestroyed them. In those daysthere was little or no fire fightingequipment and when a big firegot started it usually continueduntil it burned itself out
Pinckney had many fires. TheDan Richards store which stoodwhere Van's Motor Sales is burn-ed in the early eighties and sever-al wooden stores adjoining it.Then another fire swept the blockwhere Roy Clarks store is. It
'burned all the buildings up tothe Smith restaurant. Later inthe eighties a fire burned the

PINCKNEY DISPATCHThursday, September 3, 1959
Jackson who had a general storethere. Teeple Hardware occupiedthe 2nd store east of it andMonk's Bros, the next one ofSwarthout block. The Masons onthe 3rd floor of the Mann blockand a Young Men's Club wereon the 2nd floor. This was asocial organization which gavedances, parties etc. There hadbeen a party there that nightbut all had left before the firebroke out after midnight. It hadsmooth sailing as the village hadno fire fighting equipment hereand all three buildings burnedto the ground. This led to a bigvoid in the town but it did notendure for long. The Masonsbuilt the building on the cornerand Thomas Read the other two.The Masons later purchased the2nd building of Mr. Read.
However Pinckney had learnedher lesson which was that pailsof water are useless to fight a bigfire and the village bought theirfirst fire engine, mounted on aModel T. Pord Chassis. It servedefficiently for some yean butthe village was involved in dis-putes with out of the villageareas and neighboring townshipswho thought they should havefire protection. They also didnot think they should pay for it.The Model T did not prove bigenough for the demands on it,and another was bought. Thiswas also too small and some yeanago the township took over andbought the present engine. Thelake regions here also made con-tributions to it and get fire pro-tection. They now have agree-ments with neighboring town-ships that when they go there tofight fires they are paid.
