PHOTOGRAPHS SHOW PLANS
OF GRAND RIVER MOTORWAY
'The state highway department is
pioneering the use of aerial photo
graphs to replace the usual field sur
veys in plans for a Detroit northwest
motorway parallel to Grand
River avenue.
An aerial picture 154 feet long, cov
ering 14 miles of Grand River from
downtown to Telegraph road, is being
pieced together on a scale of 40 feet to
the Inch. The finished "mosaic strip
map" will show all existing structures
for 300 feet on each side of Grand
River. It even includes telegraph poles
and manholp covers in the street, thus
giving Valuable data on location of
ftublic utility lines.
Taken in a few days at a cost of
SBOO in federal funds, the photographs
do efficiently and accurately the work
that would have required the outlay
of SB,OOO for four months of surveying
by a crew* of 12 field workers plus
services of two draftsmen, said Mur
ray I>. Van Wagoner, state highway
Commissioner.
The pictures were taken at a height
of 3.000 feet.
HALF STATE CONVICTS
HAVE BEEN IN BEFORE
According to figures released by
Btaiph 11. Ferris, assistant director of
probation. Michigan State Department
of Corrections:
“Fifteen to 25 ]n*r cent of all per
sons placid on probation in Michigan
sooner or later revert to criminal prac
tices and wind up in prison.
“About 30 per cent of our Michigan
prisoners are criminals who have been
‘rehabilitated,’ one or more times pre
viously on probation.
“Lestei than |n*r cent of our pre
sent prison population of 7.548 are
first tenners.
“Parole experience elsewhere indi
cates that sooner or later, over one
ihird of parolees wiud up iu prison.
“These figures." Mr. Ferris con
cludes. “show that the incidence of
criminal recidivism betrays a serious
lack or weakness in rehabilitation as
actually practiced."
NEW PLAN TO BOOST
RURAL TELEPHONE LSE
Lansing, Aug. 29. —Acting on the re
commendation of fann leaders, the
Michigan Bell Telephone Company to
day petitioned the Public Service Com
mission to make effective the most
liberal rural telephone construction
plan in the history of Michigan com
munications.
The chief feature of the proposed
plan would permit rural subscribers to
pay for construction iu excess of an
Initial nou-chargeahle allowance in
monthly installments over a 5-year
period. At the present time, the charges
are paid in advance in a lump sum.
Hark L. Brody, Lansing, executive
secretary of the Michigan State Farm
Bu reau, and W. G. Armstrong, Niles,
master of the Michigan State Grange,
joined with George M. Welch, presi
dent of the Michigan Bell, in announc
ing details of the proposed plan.
Eighty per cent of the state’s popu
lation having sewerage systems is now
also served by sewage treatment
plants, according to records of the
Michigan Department of Health.
Fecundity of the common sunfish is
demonstrated by the fact that speci
mens as small as 2% inches total
length, and one-sixth of an ounce in
weight, taken off spawning beds iu
Howe lake of Crawford county by
men of the conservation department’s
institute for fisheries research, were
ripe for spawning.
