HAZARD IN HOTELS aaaV An ordinance providing for the elimi nation of fire hazards from lodging houses and hotels will be drafted im mediately and presented to the council, according to Fire Marshal Grenfell. The new measure will amend existing ordi nances, making effective safety provis ions set aside by a recent decision of Municipal Judge Rosaman. The present ordinance Requires that hotels and lodging houses shall be equipped either with a fire escape for every apartment or sleeping room, a sprinkling system in all corridors and the basement to have all stairways and elevator shafts Inclosed. Rossman ruled that if a fire escape can be reached from a hallway without passing through a room direct connection is afforded with any of the rooms on the floor of the building.

Both re served their opinions as to the necessity for' the amendments asked by Grenfell. MOVIE CENSORSHIP HEARING POSTPONED UNTIL Jl'ET 87 The motion picture censorship ordi nance presented to the city council sev eral months ago by the Church federa tion and other civic bodies did not come up for a hearing as scheduled at the council meeting today. At the request of Dan J. Malar key, attorney for the movie men. Mayor Baker postponed the hearing until July 27, Malarkey in formed the mayor Tuesday afternoon that it would be impossible for him to attend today's session. The proposed ordinance would create a censorship board of five instead of three members who constitute the pres ent board. The ordinance was presented to the council in January. Action was deferred pending possible state legisla tion regulating motion picture censor ship. Following the adjournment of the legislature the ordinance came up for a hearing and was postponed at the re quest of the Church federation. Members of the censorship board are Mrs. Alexander, Thompson, Gus C. Mets ger and Ralph C. McAfee. At the re quest of Mayor Baker just before his last Eastern trip, action on the ordinance proposing a change in the personnel of the board was deferred until his return.

In furniture particularly do you find more and more people each year tak ing advantage of the opportunities pre sented by stores selling furniture on the deferred payment plan. Heretofore only furniture of the cheaper grade was sold on a charge account basis, but today practically every type of furniture, even the most beautiful period suites, are to be found in the stores doing a charge account business. Thus the credit system has been largely responsible in making America's homes more attractive, and we are very proud of being numbered among those stores that are helping beautify America's homes with the greatest convenience to the home owner. i Use Your Credit A Wonder Sale of High-Grade Michigan Dining-Room and Bedroom Furniture The Bedroom Suite $680 Four-Piece Wslaat $ A 14.00 Suite, Special $744.75 Seven-Piece Wal- $400.75 nut Suite, Special 70 $629.50 Seven-Piece Wal- $ C ZLft.OO nut Suite, Special WV $559 Seven - Piece Ivory $r 7Q .00 S J Suits, The Dining Room States $486.50 Eifht-Piece Ma- $004.00 hog-any Suite, Special. .
