Invest $37,000,00
To Enlarge Plants
Detroit, Mich , April 4.—The Gen
eral Motors Corporation has an-
I nounced plans for the extension of
' its plants in various parts of the
i country, involving aiS expenditure of
•over $37,000,000, "as an answer to
i the feeling of uncertainty in in
i duKtrial and financial circles over
post war conditions," as W. C. Dur
j ant. president and general manager
! of the corporation, put it.
"Everybody has been waiting to
see what the other fellow was going
to do," said Mr. Durant, in making
the announcement. "General Mo
tors, by its decision to invest im
mediately $27,000,000, emphasized
its belief in the underlying stability
of the country and the soundness of
I the automobile industry."
Of the thirty-seven million dollar
i burget, twenty-six millions are to
| be expended in Michigan,
j Among amounts to lie expeffSed on
construction work outside the state
is $1,028,000 at Bristol, Conn.

bor of the British League of Nations
j Commission, for Budapest, instead
jof General Mangin, of the French |
army, who was first suggested as the j
allied representative to investigate j
certain problems in Hungary arising |
from the armistice, is regarded as an
j indication that talking, rather than
j fighting, will take place in Hungary,
j where the situation is believed by
the allied officials to have improved
I greatly.
Advices to the French foreign of
fice indicate that the forces in Uk
i raine under Petlura are within thirty
miles of Kiev, threatening the re-
I capture of the city from the Bol

U May lie Mutiny and the Chief and Brave Mayor Are All,
So to Speak, Ilct Up Over Latest Development on Force
AVhile the old police station over!
in Market street looked just the I
same to-day, and smclled just the j
same, and the same faces were vis- .
il.ne within, and the same stern eyes |
welcomed offenders, and the old po-1
lice van was bringing them In, |
things weren't as usual —things j
were not going on as usual.
Mutiny was brewing. Some of •
these here, now, Bolshevik senti- j
ments were rampant among the of- j
ficers of the law.
It seems that Police'Cliief Wetzel j
told the women in charge of the j
Rummage Sale to he held next:
week that he would give them six [
policemen the first day of the sale,]
to lieep the crowd in line and pre-,
vent the bargain hunters from go- j
ing right on through the walls into
the alley. It isn't the first time the 1
police have performed this noble
act. They know all about it.
"Listen, Chief," said one of tho (
biggest of them, buttonholing tne
head of the force in the hallway.
"What did I ever do to you?"
"Nothing—why?" asked the Chief.
"You want me to go to that Rum
mage Sale next week. Listen, Ed.
—excuse me for using your first
name on you, Ed! —1 have only
$3,000 insurance."
"What's that go to do with your
going to the Rummage Sale?" de
manded the Chief.
"I don't want to leave my unfor
tunate family with only $3,000 in
surance," s.t'd the big policeman,
brushing a tear from his eye. "It
ain't humane. Le; mo off, will you,
Chief?"
"Do you mean you're afraid?"
sneered the Chief.
"Sneer If you wish, J. Edward
Wetzel," said the patrolman, 'but
the closest you ever got to one of
those Rummage Sales was across
the street from it, so you don't know
