(ee Picture on Last Page) Seven and a half to 10 years, with the maximum sentence was the sentence imposed on Alex F. Lewis, embezzler of charity funds, when he appeared before judge John A. Boyne Tuesday.

Lewis, as a public welfare clerk, manipulated vouchers to obtain He is to serve his gen-Jnc'e in Jackson prison. Habitual Charges Dropped Habitual criminal proceedings eainst him were dropped at the of Judge Boyne, who pninted out to Prosecuting Attor-npv Harry S. Toy that Michigan has no law establishing the guilt of persons impersonating federal Lewrii was twice convicted of impersonating a federal officer. Mr. Tov moved for a dismissal of the charge and Judge Boyne entered the dismissal order.

Lewis did not seem disturbed at the prospect of spending a decade behind prison walls. "I expected that" he said, and then he added, AH 'right, judge, now I'll give you baok the city hall." Disagrees on Ills Ago Lewis disagreed with the probation department report in one re-ewct The report gives his age as 33. Lewis insisted to the court that he is only 31. Given an opportunity to speak before sentence wus passed, Lewis said he had nothing to say except tnat "the statement of the mayor to the press that $186,000 had been recovered is substantially correct." Mr. Toy told the court that this turn represented "practically the ultimate recovered." The amending of the city charter, declaring a moratorium for delinquent taxpayers, was recommended to the common council, Tuesday, by John H.

Wltherspoon. assistant corporation counsel. Th amendment would be submitted to the voters at the October primary and would cancel Interest, penalties and fees upon all taxpayers delinquent Julv 15. 1930, provided thev paid by June 30, 1032. The Interest rate during the period of delinquency was placed at one-half of one per cent per month.

Plan Opposed by Starrett Mr. Wltherspoon's amendment met with the approval of Corporation Counsel Clarence E. Wilcox, but was opposed by H. A. Starrett, chairman of the committee of 51, who is seeking to force the council to submit another tax amendment to the charter.

Mr. Starrett demanded that the council vote Immediately upon submission of his amendment, which Mr. Wilcox has condemned, but the council took the matter under advisement for one week. "It must be apparent to everyone that Mr. Starrett submerges his better Judgment for his personal politlral ambition," Mr.

Wltherspoon told the council. "Mr. Wilcox proposes the moratorium, which is similar to the relief provided by the last legislature, because Mr. Wilcox believes It would help the city in a period of depression. "Mr.

Starrett proposes another amendment which he knows would further Injure the city's financial situation, and he does so because he wants to help Mr. Starrett." Propose Monthly Payment The amendment proposed by Mr. Starrett provides for payment of taxes In monthly Installments, which feature is not opposed by the council. It also makes It possible for a delinquent taxpayer to allow his taxes to run for five yearg with a maximum penalty of 7 per cent. Mr.

Wilcox. City Controller O. Hall Roosevelt and City Treasurer Charles L. Williams, In a Joint report, opposed this feature on th grounds that It discourages th payment of taxes: that title buyers would not buy the titles to property upon which taxes were delinquent, and that the city could not get In sufficient funds to operate the government. Mr.

Witherspoon and Mr. Wilcox endeavored to persuade Mr. Starrett, a prospective candidate for mayor, to alter his amendment but this he refused to do. He charged before the council that the present Interest rates and penalties upon delinquent taxpayers amounted "to usury. The Wltherspoon amendment would apply only to those properties upon which the city now holds title, approximately $11,000,000 from the 1930 general tax title sale.

The visiting Englishman is habitually bored with it all, occasionally curious, never enthusiastic, and Grace Chambers the 8U. perlor charms of his small green Island, we are told. Japs are the ideal tourists, says Mrs.

Chambers. They are coming to Detroit In increasing numbers. They are insatiably curious, displaying quite as much interest in the gladiola bed of a cottage as in the mighty processes of the Ford plant. Japs are thoroughly friendly and polite, and deeply appreciative of the slightest courtesy. Germans travel by formula.

Their chief interest appears to lie in the intricate processes of the larger industrial plants which, even the laymen, compare minutely with their own. They all want to see Belle Isle, but what's a park without its blergarten? And the French! Bless their warm Latin hearts, the world holds no wonder quite so alluring as the infinite implication of a smile, the eloquence of two dark eyes, the miracle of a gesture so! When a party of French men and women reach Detroit, after traveling for days together, the group fairly seethes with intrigue. At least once, we are told, a sightseeing bus came home with three shattered windows. While on the subject of human frailty, the only place where sightseers, foreign or domestic, ever stand gaping until they miss their bus, is the aquarium at Belle Isle. MESS OF GREEN CORN cost William Marshall, 177 South Military avenue, $35 Tuesday before Justice Elmer Quandt.

SOME QUESTION whether the defendant could read or write when John Gherghel, 2S2 Clair-pointe, was arraigned in traffic court Tuesday for driving through Mack avenue, a stop street. He came to the United States from Rumania two years ago.

The court asked him to write his name, and also write any reasons he might have why he should not be fined or sent to jail for striking Sam Caruso's machine, 4fi26 Somerset drive, In the center of the Connors-Mack intersection. "I am 20 years old and live with my aunt," he wrote. He said he couldn't tbink of any good reason he shouldn't be fined or jailed. Judge Sherman D. Calender made it $150 or 30 days.

Gherghel elected to take the 30 days. Sea mJk fcatiia Is Reported Falling Washington, Aug. 4 (U. The white population of the United States increased less rapidly in the last 10 years than in the decade between 1910 and 1920. "The reasons for the decline are obviously the falling birth rate and the restriction on Immigration," the census bureau said in announcing the figures today.

The total white population In 1930 was 108.864.207, compared with 94,120,374 in 1920, an increase of 15.7 94,120,74 in 1920, an increase of 15.7 per cent. There was an Increase of 16 per cent from 1910 to 1920. Actually, however, the decline in the rate of increase was somewhat larger than the indicated three-tenths of one per cent. "In compiling the rates of Increase for these two census periods it must be borne in mind that the period between 1910 and 1920 was six and a half months lees than the census of 1920 and 1930," the bureau explained. Negro Population Moves North Toward Big Cities Washington.

Aug. 4 (A. The center of Negro population, which traveled southward and westward from the first census in 1790 until World war industries changed its trend in 1920, steered rapidly eastward in the last decade. Northern cities were the magnet drawing it from the northwest corner of Georgia well up into Tennessee. In New York, Negro population increased from 152.467 in 1920 to 327,706 in 1930; from 2.7 to 4.7 per cent of the population.

In Detroit the increase was from 40.838 to 120.066 or from 4.1 to 7.7 per cent of the population. JULY 4 VICTIMS ASK $4000 HERE First Suits Against City Filed After 1930 Accident Four suits, totaling $42,000, for burns sustained at a fireworks demonstration in River Rouge park July 4, 1930, were filed Tuesday against the city of Detroit in circuit court Although 12 persons were injured and one died when a bomb exploded in the midst of a crowd of spectators, the suits were the first to be filed against the city. Mary Suraski asks $20,000 for burns, contusions and shock, while her husband, Stanley Suraski, asks $5,000 for burns sustained by both himself and his daughter, Virginia, 11 years old, 5338 Martin avenue. On a similar complaint, Mrs. Lucy M.

Walden, 38. of East Grixdale avenue, seeks $5,000 damages. Arthur B. Scheel, whose 7-year-old daughter, Virginia, of 14875 Lauder avenue, died from burns, filed a $12,000 suit for damages to himself and daughter. Other suits are pending In 1he federal court at Pittsburgh against' Tony Vitale, of New Castle, as head of the Ohio Fireworks company, which had contracted with the city for the display.

These suits ask a total of $150,000. SLAYING HINTED IN GIRUS DEATH Police Seek Taxicab Driver for Quiz Body Identified Police Tuesday began an investigation into the death of Luella Soulllere. 19 years old. 14182 Meyers road, whose body was Identified at the morgue at noon by her parents, Mr. and Mrs.

Edmund Soul-liere. The body was unclaimed for 31 hours. That the girl may have been slain was Indicated when police admitted they were searching for a taxi-cab driver thought to know how the girl met her death. Mrs. Soulliere said her daughter left home in good spirits Sunday evening to attend a motion picture and had been missing since then.

At 10:30 p. m. Sunday the police reported an unidentified girl had swallowed poison at Avery and Grand River avenues. The police said she was taken to Receiving hospital by a taxicab driver. She died early the next morning.

RECKLESS CHARGE PUT AGAINST CRASH DRIVER Clarence Hart, 27 years old, 5697 Hartford avenue, was charged Tuesday with reckless driving after a collision Friday with another car driven by Mrs. Sarah Detzel, 39, of 5671 Missouri avenue, at West Warren and Maybury Grand avenues. Mrs. Detzel, her two-year-old daughter, Virginia, and a passenger, Mrs. Mary Naylor, 31.

of 3540 Maybury Grand avenue, were treated at Receiving hospital for minor injuries. Hart's car went over the curb and across the sidewalk before stopping after the collision, police said. SCHMEMAN'S CONCERT BAND PROGRAM Wednesday, August 5 HERMAN V. SCHMEMAN Conductor Belle Is! 3 P. M.

A CANTHUS LEAVES in oak A and Heaven only knows what intricate designs and leering wooden faces have been coming out of Louis SielafT's workshop over in St. Antolne street for a quarter of a century. We wandered into Mr.

Sielaff den. after loping up three flights of white-washed stairs, to surprise. possible, some of these half- born master- pieces that are the Joy of their maker and the pride of more than a few of Detroit's finest residences. We found, save for the corner where Siolaff, the wood- carver, scans tissue paper drawings and ponder ous blue -prints, only a series or locked doors. The mysteries of Louis Sielaff wooa carving, we deduced, were only for those who gave the proper hailing sign of the guild at the main office.

A ship job, so Mr. Sielaff told us, the interior of the S.S. City of Detroit III, was one of his earliest and perhaps his largest commission. His corps of artisans labored for a year. Drawings patterns tinally the carvings themselves taxed Siclaff's ingenuity.

He had been in business but a few years and had misgivings at even attempting so large a contract. The diverse natures of 11 periods in the wood carving art were brought into the public rooms of the floating hotel. At current prices, we were told, such a contract would cost the owner upwards of $125,000. The style of carvings must match the general architecture. For the home of Roy D.

Chapln on Lake Shore drive, Georgian is the theme. A radically opposed type, English Gothic, is found in the J. Bell Moran residence. Three styles showing the transition through the periods of extreme ornamentation to the comparative restraint of Louis XVI were designed by Sielaff for a house of French architecture. In Bishop Michael J.

Gallagher's home in Palmer Woods, so Mr. Sielaff says, are splendid examples of the carver's art. In the church of the Blessed Sacrament have been added from year to year a series of altar decorations that are probably unequaled in this part of the country. Walnut, we understand, has ousted mahogany as the apex of the pinnacle in doggy interiors. Today's job? We peeked through a workshop door.

A sailor's head, just a plaster cast a trifle about eight feet high lay on the floor. "Oh, that," Sielaff enlightened us. "Just piece of the new Macomb county courthouse." 1VINSI.OW HOWART II. broker: "I found on my recent trip to the cast that the rank and file of New rork Stock exchange members are quietly biding their time at present, and are confidently expecting a good market In September." PATROLMAN JOHN L. MacIN-TYRE got his pay-check, took it to the bank July 28, 1930, endorsed it while standing at the lobby desk, and walked to the cashier's cage.

On the way he lost the check. Several hours later it was cashed at a downtown hardware store. Deputy City Treasurer Hartman G. Heibst has been scratching his head since then. If he paid the officer's salary, the hardware merchant might force him, in court, to honor the check; if he paid the merchant, the cop might sue.

At last he went to the common council. The council ruled it would honor a compromise, half to each. Councilman John Kronk. however, favored giving it all to Maclntyre. The patrolman told the council he thought the check had been stolen from him in the bank.

Kronk, who was chairman, waxed sarcastic. "Did you have your gun with you?" he inquired. "Yes, sir," said Maclntyre, meekly. Listeners laughed. "Maybe the city should give you police protection when you go to the bank, ch?" continued Kronk.

"No, sir," still more meekly. The listeners laughed harder. "Where is your beat?" Kronk went on. Maclntyre leaned over and whispered in the councilman's ear: "Right past your house, sir." "Next case," said, Mr. Kronk, loudly.

JAMES CALLAHAN and Mrs. Callahan get up early and take a little spin each morning after breakfast. Usually they take Alter road to the lake. For several mornings they have noticed a big black bov fishing off the foot of the canal. They got to wondering what he caught.

Tbey never saw him pull in anything. They stopped and asked, lie said fishing was bad. "Why not try some other spot?" suggested Mr. Callahan. "You might have better luck.

"Oh. I get something once In a while," said the fisherman. "I done snagged my line here last fall and pulled up a bag of beer bottles all full." CUTTING DOWN PINK trees every morning while on his vaca tion cut down Circuit Judge Theo dore J. Richter's weight 20 pounds. The judge is just back.

At second glance, he saw there was a driver. The car slid out into Grand River. The driver's head barely showed. The car grazed Mr. Burke's fender.

Mr. Burke got out of his own car and looked into the other. The driver was so small he had a pile of newspapers and a cushion under him. There was a thick coat behind him which thrust him forward so he could reach the pedals. Ten years old, he said, and had been driving a year.

"What in the world would you do If you saw some boys or girls in the middle of the road and right in front of vou?" asked Burke. "Well," the 10-year-old," I'd trv to go around them, of course; OH, SHADES OF EARLY pioneers, trekking cross the plains! It is now possible to own or rent your own covered wagon.

HARVESTING isn't in 14-year-old Tullio Gizzl's line. Didn't know how they did it on the farm. As a result Tullio is nursing a severely cut wrist and a neighborhood baseball team is minus a swell first baseman. The youngster, who lives at 18135 Riopelle street, and a band of pals needed a baseball diamond. Corner lot looked good, but it was full of weeds.

Found a sickle Monday and Tullio set out with the gang to clear the field. A good, healthy swing and Tul-lio's wrist was nearly severed. He was rushed to Receiving hospital crying "I can't play first base now."

Now, you are beginning to see to what extent that dollar ran be relied upon. I wonder If In the future it will be the paramount object of your existence." SEVEN RETIRED POLICE officers whose years of service in the Detroit police department total 212, were honored Tuesday by members of the detective bureau.

Armchairs, traveling bags and hunting guns were presented by Chief of Detectives James E. McCarty to John A. Reld, former deputy chief of detectives; Amos J. Kunkel, former inspector; Joseph M. Kolbe, former detective Inspector; Loren W.

Van Nortwick, and Albert A. Kramer, former detective lieutenants; Raymond Gillette, former detective sergeant, and George J. Wilson, former captain. JOE BUSHA, of the Statler, has a vacant lot at Woodland beach, down the river. Mrs.

Busha got after him about planting some trees on it. In a couple of years, as she saw it, the lot would look like something. So Joe, spending the whole month of July vacationing down there, finally decided, or had it decided for him, to put in a good day of planting. Scoured some nearby woods and got five dandy trees three elms and a couple of poplars. The sand flics were pesky.

The tree-cutting was no sport; Mr. Busha slaved on in behalf of the arboretum, however. He trucked the trees over to the lot, and the next day, unassisted, spaded holes for the roots and put the trees In place. The next day he encountered a deputy. "That was a fine job of planting you did yesterday, Mr.

Busha, he said. "Not bad," said Busha, trying to wriggle his stiff arms. "I can't figure out yet why you did it, though, said the deputy. "That isn't your lot, you know." Mr. Busha has decided to leave them there, anyway, for the fellow who does own the lot.

Maybe, when the trees are tall enough, whoever does own the lot will permit Mrs. Busha, her husband hopes, to enjoy their shade occasionally. They'll be right next door to the Bushas treeless lot. AN ALl'MINVM AGE, in which bridges, machinery and buildings, perhaps even homes, will be built of brilliant, rustless aluminum alloys, is easy for a vlsitos to the architects' exhibit on the second floor of the Barium Tower to visualize.

Wr WD(SIH1T Crowley-Milners 7th Floor of Furniture Will Be Open Until 9 M. -for the convenience of hundreds of people who cannot visit the store in the daytime Ex'Policeman's Wife Does Forecasting He Serves Time Figuring poetically that stone walls do not a prison make, nor Iron bars a cell, J. Cltfford Burt, prominent In Murfreesboro, weather circles, was at liberty Tuesday. Reasoning less profoundly he was at county jail taking an eight-month correspondence course in metereology while waiting for a $1,000 judgment and body execution to expire. Time was only three years ago when Burt was a pavement pounding policeman with only the pavements in Melvlndale to pound.

But then he punched William T. Wulf in the eye. Partners In Weather Shop Mr. Wulf sued, but lawyers recited a bromide about wheels of justice rolling as slow as steam rollers so Burt gave up his star, posted a $5,000 bond, went to Tennessee and began a new life where weather is weather and strong men are needed to handle It properly. Policeman Burt became a weatherman and his wife Agnes, always interested in his affairs, domestic or personal, became a familiar figure at his weather shop atop the highest building on the highest hill of Murfreesboro.

She became as expert as he in drawing wlggly green lines on charts and taking the temperature of the day. Thus, when time came along last May for Burt to appear in circuit court here, he abdicated his weather to his wife. Forecasts By Rheumatism "Agnes was always handy about forecasting," he said. "She was better at it though, when she did it by rheumatism and didn't know much about graphs and thermo electric galvanometers. I With Weatherlady Burt running atmosphere such as it is, in Ten- nessee.

Burt came to Detroit, was I jailed May 26 on a $1,000 judgment, and began studying advanced 1 metereological problems in his spare time. "When I get out," he said Tues day, "I'm going to be the worlds champion prognosticator and all because I smacked Mr. Wulf in the eye. Reads like a romance, doesn't it? I smack him and he pays my expenses so I can study and not be disturbed." Fears Reprisal In Cell Burt will be released March 1, unless Mr. Wulf gets sick of fixing his hoard and keep at the jail before that time.

What worries Prisoner Burt most is the fear that someone he arrested when a policeman will become his cell mate. "I can't fight so good any more," he said. "I'm better at weather." EXPLOSION IN HOME BLAMED ON OWNER A warrant for arson was recommended Tuesday against Alex So-bieski, 34 years old. 2276 Evallne avenue, Hamtramck.
