Arthur Brisbane argues big thinking and advertising drive value, citing Mont Blanc tourism and book publishing as examples. He recalls Rockefeller’s rise, reflects on radical policing in New York, and notes potential tax hikes as Hoover warns Congress about spendthrift policies.
The Michigan State Digest reports congressman Grant M Hudson seeks to curb films by declaring body parts and scenes invisible. The proposed bill would outlaw bedroom and lingerie scenes, intimate dancing, gambling and drinking in films and extend to domestic life. Proposals include draping table legs, banning lemons in homes, red canoes only, and new pedestrian signals. The measure provokes satire about overreach in reform.
Radio host K Henderson condemns chain stores as daylight burglars who siphon wealth from communities. He argues they offer little public benefit, drain local coffers, and push independent merchants toward ruin, comparing chain retail to forced farming and predicting broader societal harm. The piece notes Michigan's attempt to act and cites the 1981 Michigan State Digest.
A quotation urges removal of intimate apparel terms and proclaims theaters and newspapers must display a manifesto that they will show audiences what Congressmen decide. The note claims enforcement through portals and mastheads and criticizes audience assumed preferences.
A historical piece discusses pedestrian safety with new traffic control ideas in New York. The proposed all-red light plan would flash red in all directions during a cycle, forcing all vehicles to stop and allow pedestrians to cross confidently.
The national poll by the American Nature Association ends with Wild Rose as the winner, Columbine runner-up backed by a new Columbine Society, and votes totaling over two hundred thousand between them. Daisy, Violet, Goldenrod, Phlox, and Dogwood follow in the final tally as educators and organizations praise civic participation and the national heritage of native wildflowers.
The commentary notes that while the plan offers comfort to pedestrians, its practical effectiveness is still uncertain. It acknowledges that the concept appears sound in theory, but its real world operation remains to be seen and emphasizes care for those on foot.
A Crystal Falls man leaped from a gym balcony during a game after his son was roughed. In a heated phone call to The Reporter he vented loudly, revealing how he felt about the incident and the press coverage. The piece moves to discuss printers in the Upper Peninsula and their role in advertising bundles for the Development Bureau, noting they push to be low bidders and to gain recognition, sometimes at the expense of timely delivery. (Continued on Page Eight.)
A reproduced editorial excerpt argues for personal patient physician relationships. It urges one doctor to oversee an individual's entire health, emphasizing human understanding and sustained care over frequent doctor changes and impersonal, speedy practice.
