RECENT PLACEMENT SURVEY
REVEALS SUCCESS OF
VETERANS’ SCHOOL
A report from the Michigan Vet
erans’ Vocational School at Pine
Lake near Doster, Michigan, shows
remarkable achievements by recent
graduates. Os twenty-one veterans
who completed trade or business
courses at the school, eleven are
earning a monthly wage in excess
of $l4O a month.
Disabled veterans with cardiac
conditions, stomach disorders, her
nias and blindness have been able
to resume responsible positions
with former or new employers. As
an example one World War II vet
eran unable to walk because of a
wound received in the Normandy
campaign landings, apparently
doomed to a life of dependence is
realizing a neat profit from a ra
dio repair shop he is operating
after completing a training course
in radio repair at the vocational
school.

‘Take‘Er Down’--Navy Plays Host To Newsmen On
‘Fighting’ Cruise Aboard Veteran U. S. Submarine
(Relaxing a wartime blackout
of news aboard submarines, the
Navy invited reporters to a
“fighting’’ cruise aboard the USS
Scabbardfish outside the Golden
Gate. The United Press was rep
resented by Frank Bartholomew,
His story follows).
By FRANK BARTHOLOMEW
United Press Staff Correspondent
Aboard U. S. Submarine Scab
bardfish. 45 miles off California
coast.—(U.R)—lf you'd like to know
what goes on board a submarine
pointing downward toward the bot
tom of the ocean, picture a vigor
ous young captain, his executive
and 10 officers and crewmen, as
well as the three correspondents,
crowded into a space eight by 21
feet.
A good deal of this space is taken
up by instruments and two peris
copes. There is standing room only,
shoulders touching.
The hatch above Is slammed
shut and secured. Through a hatch
in the deck at your feet you can
see the diving officer below—Lt.
(J.G.) J. B. Hall of Metropolis, 111.
The conning tower is pressurized.
Your ears ache for a moment.
"We are now T diving.” the Com
manding officer, Comdr. P. G.
Molteni, of Johnson City, Tenn.,
tells you. An automatic timing
clock is started. In two minutes
you are 80 feet down in the inky
black, cold waters of the Pacific.
Michigan Mirror

Charles M. Ziegler, state high
way commissioner, believes in do
ing things differently; well, at
least, not according to the tradi
t.onal Lansing pattern.
He keeps a vigilant eye on de
tails and dollars, believing that
both contribute materially to ef
ficiency of the state highway de
partment.
For example: Whereas his Dem
ocratic predecessors built up the
state highway dept, as a strong
centralized agency with a large
staff of employees, virtually state
wide in scope and hence of major
political value at election time,
Ziegler has proceeded deliberately
to reduce the department person
nel by farming out state highway
maintenance to 61 of the 83 coun
v highway commissions.

WYANDOTTE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1946
“We are now going to 100 feet,”
says Molteni, who looks like Clark
Gable with modified ears. Then,
down the hatch at his feet:
"What’s your trim look / like,
Jim?”
Voice from below: "We are light
aft”
"Okay, let me know' as soon as
you get your trim.” Then Molteni
explains:
"The diving officer has to cal
culate all the changing weights on
the submarine, Including extra
passengers and supplies taken
aboard. We are sensitive to changes
as small as a thousand pounds. Not
a great deal of weight in relation
to our 1800 ton displacement.”
From below: "We are in trim and
under complete control.”
The captain: Okay, take her
down to 100 feet.”
The sleek ship glides silently
downward. Every navy man watch
es his dials and controls. The news
papermen watch the face* of the
submariners.
The next order Is "Up peris
cope!” You are invited to have
a look. You see the smooth swells
of the Pacific rolling toward you in
the afternoon sun. You see our
escort ship —USS Seagull which
will also be our target.
We stalk the escort vessel for a
half hour. You understand how the
Scabbardfish was able to sink a
Os course, perhaps unfortunately
for his Democratic predecessors,
these same county highway com
missions are largely Republican in
politics. Ziegler has many friends
in the county organizations,
whereas Murray D. Van Wagoner,
for example, did not have.
• • •
And another thing to illustrate
our point.
The state civil service commis
sion, under its constitutional act,
possesses legislative as well as exec
utive powers. It lays down the law
for state departments, subject only
to possible Supreme court review.
For many months Ziegler has
been contesting the right of the
civil service department, as repre
sented by the commission and its
director, Thomas J. Wilson, to have
the final “say-so” on six-month
salary increases which the average
state employee is eligible to re
ceive, PROVIDING his services are
found to be “satisfactory.”
Now many state officials might
shrug a shoulder and promptly
pass the buck to the civil service
office with an excuse, “The people
gave the civil service commission
the power to act on salaries. So the
matter is out of my hands.”
• • •
But not Ziegler. No, sirree!
In this respect, the state high
way commissioner is a bit old
fashioned at this state capital
where more and more spending has
been the rule, rather than the con
trary, and where payrolls keep
climbing in numbers and amount,
administration in and out, regard
less of the party in power.
A dollar is a dollar to Ziegler
even in 1946. He rolls up his sleeves,
wades into voluminous reports by
the hours, and if he thinks he can
save a few dollars and do so con
scientiously, he proceeds to do it
without delay.
This zeal for economy and effi
ciency probably accounts for the
Ziegler disposition to load him
self with details, whereas other
administrators are inclined to del
egate details to their subordinates
and to spend much of their time
meeting the voters.
