Linked with Unsolved Murders It contained a cryptic postscript that the investigator was "informed that two unsolved crimes of murder in Macomb county are connected with gambling and vice which may be brought to light by an intensive investigation. Rushton said he had no advance knowledge that Manderano was making the investigation for the late James P. Shepherd, deputy attorney general, and did not see the report until It was found among Shepherd's effects.

Shepherd died of a heart attack shortly after he received the report. Rushton has awaited Manderano's return from Columbus, where he Is employed on a leave of absence, to question him further concerning his accusations, Rushton said. The attorney general described the report as possibly constituting grounds for investigation of law en forcement in Macomb county, but too general to form the basis for action against anyone without supporting affidavits. Thinks Affidavits Available "If these things exist," Rushton said, "surely there must be enough decent people in the county to make affidavits of their truth. If we get these affidavits we will take appropriate action, and we also will take appropriate action on our own investigation.

In which I will ask the state police to help me. "We have no means of policing the state or supplying it with prosecutors. But if local officials don't do their duty, we have a remedy for that. "If the hearsay set forth in the Manderano report is true, something should be done about it." Oscar G. Olander, state police commissioner, conferred with Governor Kelly and reported his officers had raided gaming places early In the summer in Macomb county, and that he doubts there have been widespread violations since then.

Troopers to Assist Declaring the state police can not undertake to supplant local law enforcing officers in patrolling their towns, Olander ordered his officers to be alert for violations and instructed the detective division to give Rushton every assistance he may need. Kelly said his orders to Olander were "the same as before: clean up vice and gambling, and keep them stopped." The developments followed a ses sion of the state administrative board at which Rev. D. A. Morris, pastor of the First Methodist church of St.

Clair Shores, led a delega tion demanding the board "do something" about law enforcement In that county. The board asked Rushton to Investigate.

Relaxed Rules Hit Morale of Air Raid Setup Capt. Donald S. Leonard, state director of civilian defense, asserted Wednesday two recent decisions of the federal government were "mak ing It more and more difficult to maintain" the Michigan air raid protection forces. He referred, he said, to a decision to abolish the airplane -spotter" service and this week's removal of a ban on printing and broadcatslng general weather reports.

Both moves, he asserted, were interpreted widely as indicating a lessening of ficial fear or air raids on trie American continent. "These steps." Leonard said, "have the average air raid warden scratch ing his head and wondering what use he is. All we can say to him is that the danger is not over. The army has not said we are out of danger and President Roosevelt recently called on civilian defense personnel to maintain their vital services." Declaring Ihe "by-product (service In event of other public emergencies) may become more valuable than the product (air raid Leonard appealed to Michigan air raid personnel to maintain an alert organization until notified officially to disband.

The board decreed that employes in the future must furnish a written report from their physician to obtain their pay for time lost through illness. The plan, one of four considered by the commissioners, limits men with less than a year of service to 10 days' pay for sick leave. Members having from one up to five years seivice will be entitled to 60 days' sick pay.

All those with more than five-year seniority will receive up to 90 days sick leave pay in any one year. The board members explained that the plan will tend to eliminate unnecessary "sick pointing out that the employe must present a physician's report before his pay lor time off will be allowed. The commissioners said they would reserve the right to have any employe reporting sick examined by reliable physician of the board's choice.

These APPROVED 0" By BIRT DARLING (Journal Aviation Editor) Every community in Michigan stands to have a station on the in ternational network of post-war airways but there are a lot of declared Thomas J.

Walsh, acting director of the state board of aeronautics, addressing the Tuesday afternoon session of state and municipal planners at the Hotel Porter. "The larger cities will be ringed by concentric circles of small air ports; the 'one big airport' idea is now outmoded." said Walsh. "The smaller communities will have their fields for feeder service. Definite federal aid should be forthcoming. State aid is up to the legislature." Warning against r-enthu- siasm" on the part of small com munities, Walsh declared: "Too often in the past communities have gone overboard on a wave of enthu siasm such as the Lindbergh flight and built airports they couldn't sup port.

The war has brought another of these waves, and it can happen again. Every town should evaluate possible future passenger and air cargo potentialities realistically." Recommending 240 Ports disclosed that the state board of aeronautics here has mapped out a tentative system of 240 airports based on carloaaing and car and bus passenger travel. He indicated that the Michigan air port master plan would act as a check-rein on possible "over-build ing of airports. "The large 'super-airport' is not the answer for any community, re gardlrss of size," he said, pointing out that, regardless of size such fields may attain, a "saturation point" in overhead traffic Is too easily attained. The alternative, he stressed, is the concentric ring system now being planned by many of the nation's larger cities.

Walsh pricked a bubble of over- optimism for some cities which have seen their small fields greatly ex panded by the army during the past two years. Fears Maintenance Problem "The huge airports built by the army for their operations cannot easily be supported by cities after the war." he said. "These cities, which originally may have felt they were getting big post-war air terminals on a silver platter, should make plans for some sort of semi-military operations on these fields after the war." Asserting that the "future of avi ation is bound up in military operations," Walsh emphasized while the nation had only 350 air liners in service before Pearl Harbor, 20 billion dollars worth of planes Clemens. He asserted there then were four blind pigs in Mt. Clemens.

"I learned through my informants that slot machines are scattered throughout Macomb county, one of which was played by my informant as late as Saturday, July 31," he reported. The document, dated August 4. said some larger gambling places "have been quiet since Tuesday, the 20th day of July "but the word is being passed around among patrons that they expect to resume real soon." It told of "various indications" that raids were tipped off to gamblers and others before they occurred, and reported liquor was "promiscuously sold on Sundays throughout Macomb county." and asserted law enforcement was lax In all municipalities of the county.
