It was a beautiful day, with the sun shining brilliantly through the turning leaves on the white oak trees which lean over the doorstep. The parlor in which Cardinal Mooney rested for the THERE WERE nuns with serene feces, who knelt with a rustle of habits at the red-plush rope surrounding the coffin.

There were priests, some of them older men who peered intently into the dead face gas-logged fireplace. A few ferns were the principal background. Six large brown candles on stands provided most of the light. The first watch over the dead cardinal was kept by Anthony J. Sporer, commander of the Detroit General Assembly of the Com-mandery, a Fourth Degree Knight of Columbus.

Other guardsmen and members of the Catholic War Veterans began spelling him off as the day went on. Between watches they rested in the front parlor, a sparsely furnished room with a deep wine-colored carpet. There were comfortable old chairs there with highly polished walnut arms, and oak paneling, and the subtle aroma of the late cardinal's cigars lingering in the straight tan drapes.

Election Hate Pleas Denounced Printed handbills expressing racial and religious bigotry against several Democratic legislative candidates are making nightly appearances in Northwest and Southeast Detroit. The pamphlets urge the defeat of candidates who introduced or supported civil-rights legislation in Lansing.

THE STATE Fair-Election-Practices Commission condemned the handbills in a statement Tuesday. The state chairmen of both the Democratic and Republican parties supported the commission by urging voters "to be alert for last-minute attempts by organized bigots and hate groups to inject race and religion into the 1958 campaign." In the Third Legislative district, incumbent Reps. William Ryan, Robert D. Mahoney and E. D.

O'Brien were criticized by the Gratiot-Chalmers Home Owners Association for supporting a civil-rights bill which eventually died in committee. Another organization, the National Civic Association, which ha3 offices at 1141 E. Seven Mile, urged the defeat of Rep. Joseph J. Kowalski, sponsor of a civil-rights bill which the association felt would result in "mixed neighborhoods." A RECENT handbill attacks Democratic Reps.

Joseph G. O'Connor and John J. Fitz-patrick, both of whom voted in favor of releasing the civil-rights bill from committee. These pamphlets are sponsored by the i a Park Civic Association. The Rt.

Rev. Richard S. Em-rich, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Michigan and chairman of the fair-election group, made public the statements by the two state chairmen. GOP Chairman Lawrence B. Lindemer said the commission "condemns as un-American any practice which appeals for voter support on the basis of racial or religious prejudice." Neil Staebler, chairman of the Democratic State Committee, said "such llth-hour appeals to hatrednd bigotry unfortunately have been made in previous elections and we have received scattered reports that they are taking place again." "The Democratic Party," he said, "utterly rejects and denounces appeals to racial or religious prejudices, and we will condemn them wherever and whenever they occur." Edward Cardinal Mooney "Lay in Princely Dignity in a Parlor last time was simply furnished in a style of furniture popular in great homes a generation ago.

BY LOUIS COOK Free Presi Staff Writer Death does not seem at all grim in the rear parlor of the home of Edward Cardinal Mooney. There is dignity in the face of the cardinal. There is also the look of a weary, elderly man, grateful for rest. THE BIG HOME is at 1880 Wellesley, in Palmer Woods. At noon Tuesday people began to walk slowly up the curving walk to the front door, guided by white-gloved policemen.

They were not all Catholics. There were few, even, who had had any personal acquaintance with the late cardinal. Now they were a part of the history of their city. They had been in the presence of Detroit's first arch- industry will gain support in the table comparing Illinois and Michigan. In the durable manufacturing class, Illinois outscored Michigan, with only one Illinois firm paying as much as 79 per cent of the Michigan tax.

Yet, American Motors Corp. moved a Peoria "lant to Grand Rapids, according to the records of another legislative committee. COMMITTEE members considered the comparison of taxes per worker per year as one of the most significant in the report. It showed that if the tax figure per worker per year in Michigan is $300, it would be $125 in Illinois and Ohio. Geerlings said, "I think this report certainly indicates that business and industry are paying a lot more taxes here than in the other states with which Michigan must compete for business and industry."

Yntema, head of the Economics Division of Hope College in Holland, who prepared a study report, would not say that taxes form a major item in final determination of where business and industry will locate. "This report does on thing, certainly, and that is to explode the theory that business and industry are pampered pets in Michigan," said Senator Clyde Geerlings, Holland Republican and chairman of the committee. The report was submitted by Yntema after 14 months of study.

Yntema provided charts showing Michigan at a serious tax disadvantage compared with Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
