JAMES" ‘JUNK BRINGS $11,100

State Auditor Surprised at Results of First Auction.

State Auditor Richard T. James was pleasantly surprised yesterday at the results of the first public auction of unwanted state property to be held under a new 1941 law. Forty-nine old automobiles, junk iron and steel, old tires, a worn-out truck and station wagon were auctioned off to high bidders for a total of $11,100. Mr. James, just to be sure he wasn't getting gyvpped on any of the items, had the whole lot appraised just before the sale and the experts reported that a fair total price for everything would be $7650, almost $3500 less than the goods brought. ‘ Among the automobiles sold were the two Chryslers turned back to the State by Secretary of State James Tucker and State Treasurer James Givens and the Buick turned back by Mr. James. Mr. Tucker's Chrysler, a 1938 model, had been standing idle in the State Highway Garage for the past several years because Mr. Tucker declined to use it and no one had the authority to sell it. It went for $360. Forty-five huge tractor tires which have been in the Highway Commission warehouse for over four years were sold for $52.50 each. They cost $56 apiece. The new law gives the State Auditor power to sell at public auction all unwanted state property. Previously, the only way state property could be disposed of was to trade it in on new items, except in the State Highway Commission.

BANS PEDDLERS ON STATE ROADS

Commission Says Stands Along Highway Are Traffic Menace.

superintendent, announced today. This action, requested by the | Highway Commission, is being taken because so many peddlers are set-

right-of-ways: that they are becoming a traffic menace, Mr. Stiver said. The right of the state police to arrest the peddlers for doing business on the highway right-of-ways was upheld by Attorney General George Beamer in an opinion writ-|

ten to Mr. Stiver today. Mr, Beamer said that the display and sales of commodities on the right-of-ways is “inimical to the public safety and constitutes a public nuisance.” The Attorney General said that the itinerant peddlers are subject to arrest under a 1905 law which provides for fines ranging from $10 to $500 for obstructing or encumbering public grounds.

Frequent Furloughs and

U. S. Aid for Wives Would Help.

By Science Service DETROIT, July 25.—A four-point program for keeping draftee bridegrooms and their brides happily married was recommended by Dr. Lowell S. Selling, director of the psychopathic clinic of the Recorder’'s Court of this city, at the Second Annual Michigan Conference on Marriage and Family Relations, Dr. Selling’s advice is: 1. No couple should get married merely because the man is to be drafted. The prospective bride: should be sure she wants to marry and is not rushing “into emotional situation due to glamour or because time seems to be fleeting.” 2. The wife who is left at home by the soldier should not be dependent on her job alone. There should be some machinery in the Government to take care of her, particularly if her husband is in the National Guard or a non-drafted solaier, 3. Furloughs should be as frequent as possible so that the couple will not “get too far apart.” 4. Trained professional advisers should be available for potential service to bridegrooms and brides. The nation may have a new marital problem on its hands, Dr. Selling suggests, when the married draftee whose wife is self-support-ing refurns from service. After a year of freedom the husband may be reluctant to settle down. If during his year in the Army he has been picturing his wife as ideally beautiful and wonderful, coming back to stark reality may be sucn a shock as to break up the marriage.
