"Vour record at; the Credit
bureau is open for your inspection any time you want to
know what is ift your file,"
Roberta Mageli, manager of
Crcdit Bureau of Clinton
County, saitl today in response
to President Nixon's weekend
message on the right to privacy.
According to John L. Spafr
ford', president of Associated
Credit Bureaus, -Inc., the
problem with" the publicity
given to the issue of privacy aftd
computers is the broad brush
approach',, and an overgeneralization by the media awl
government officials Jo this
- complex issue.* "
N(
*^dffoRT8aId, "the.statement
consumers cannot learn what is
in their credit file is false. The
law requires credit bureaus to
disclose everything in your file
* and, as a matter of fact, over
1,700,000 disclosures were made
by ACB members in 1973,
^'The statement," Spafford
said, "that credit bureaus
collect and disseminate personal information about, Con-
sumer^'morals, characteristics
and personal habits is also
false. Investigative consumer
\reporting agencies gather, that
type of information for insurance companies, but your
local credit bureau does" not.
And, it is time the media, and
government officials, get that
point straight.
Credit bureaus, according to
Spafford, make full disclosure
of information but investigative
agencies are not.required to
discJose sources.
/ "Your local credit'bureau is
noW( a n d h a s been, operating.
u n d e r a s t r j c t E e d e r a l ]aW s i n c e
April, 1971. It protects consumer privacy and affords you
the right to know and to correct
or place a statement in your
file.
If government officials are
concerned with personal
privacy," Spafford said, "they
would turn to other alleged
invaders and bring them up to
the standards of the local credit
bureau."

The Redwings also finished

Alt6gether, the Redwing

Morrison and Barber are now

Morrison said, "At our 1st

How do trees love thee?
Let us count the ways
People jriant trees for a
variety- of' reasons including
beatification and more
pleasant surroundings is the
advice of Orville Beachler, soil
conservation technician US Soil1
Conservation Service.
Following are some benefits
A from trees that appeared in a
recentlssueof the Annual Extra
Edition of the Marshall RotaryFountain, published by the
Marshall Rotary Club,
TREESCOOL
The daily evaporation of a
single well watered tree can
produce an estimated cooling
effect of more than a million
B.T.U.'s. This is equal to ten one
room air conditioners operating
20 hours a day/
TREES REDUCE POLLUTION.
.Trees absorb polluted air that
is not only richer in oxygen
but^
alsilfreer of pollutants.v
TREES REDUCE NOISE
Forest and rows or clumps of
trees dampen city and, highway
traffic noise. Each 100 feet of
trees will dissipate approximately six to eight
descibles of sound and reduce
noise by 50 percent.
TREESPR6TECTFROM
WIND
Trees planted as a windbreak
will provide full protection
downwind for 10 times their,
height and some protection at 20
times. A 35 foot high windbreak
will reduce a 35 mile" per hour
wind to 10 ntiles-per hour.
>H
TREES PROTECT WATER
Tree cover, rieedles and
leaves protect the soil from the
impact of raindrops and thus
prevents erosion, and sediment
in our streams.-Trees improve,
the water holding capacity of
the soil.
k
Soil loss under hardwood
forests is only l/40 that of
meadows and lawns.
TREES AND WILDLIFE
Trees provide food, cover and
living space for wildlife.
TRESS PRODUCE FOOD
AND MATERIALS
Trees produce fruit, nuts,
seeds, 'syrups,
building
materials and paper products.
If these or other reasons give
you the urge to plant some
trees, the Clinton Soil Conservation District is conducting
its annual trees sales program
right now. /
If you would like assistance in'
three selection, planting advice
or any phase 'of woodland
management, it is available at

water to produce 1 pound of

the rest of the raw t cane is
shipped to California to ,be

being plowed and turned into
housing projects, because of the

Hawaiian wedding songs
They toured by bus to the
pineapple fields, a banana
plantation and a no till farm.
They saw the. place where the
movies, "South Pacific" and
"Blue Hawaii" were filmed.
One evening they were guests
, at the Outrigger Hotel, and
were treated to a laus, consisting of roast pig, Hawaiian
chicken, mau mau (dolphin),
sweet potatoes, Poie, and fresh
pineapple, which is served with
every meal. They were entertained by Polynesian singers
and dancers.,
Their plane was 2 hours late
leaving the island but arrived
back in Lansing safe and sound.
Everyone agreed the trip was
wonderful and one they will
never forget. Thanks to Mr and
Mrs Tabor, I know more people
will want to visit the islands" our
newest state, to see all these
wonderful things for themselves.

Rail elimination "disaster"
REP DOUGLAS TREZISE
87th District
A proposal out-of-Washington
a few weeks ago . calls for
elimination of almost two-thirds
of the railroad routes in
Michigan.
*
To the state as a-whole, this is
significant, .
To the central Michigan area,
it's a disaster.
A look 'at the map which
accompanied the proposal can
tell'us why. The only rail service of any kind in Shiawassee
and Clinton counties would-be
the * main line of-the Grand
Trunk through Durand and the
old Ann Arbor, now the Detroit,
Toledo and Ironton route as far
north as Owosso. All other
lines
would be abandoned. L
The Penn-Central route
through Shiawassee County, the
Grand Trunk's DurandMuskegon route and all '|he

remaining Ann Arbor trackage
from Owosso to Frankfort
would be among the casualties.
Ovjd, St Johns, Fjowler,
Lamgsburg and many other
communities *would xbe left
without any rail service. '
And a good many people who
depend on those railroads for
their livelihood, directly or
indirectly,* could be without
their jobs.
I have some mixed emotions
on the whole subject. I have
never been one to force companies or people to provide a
service if they're losing money.
One of the principles of our free
enterprise system is that an
individual is free to decide for
himself when he should go into
( or go out of a business. It's
' pretty hard to force a person to
lose money.
„ But, there is a difference in
utilities such as the railroads.
Because of their nature and the
service they perform, many
other people and the government have to become involved
in that decision,'
Industries are built, elevators
are located1 and complete
communities are.built around
the availability of rail service.
The railroads are still the most
economic way to move large
quantities of a commodity from
one point to another. They are
not only the least expensive
from the standpoint of dollars
paid for the service but also in
labor and energy costs.
When we agree to the abandonment of all these routes, we
are probably telling those
railroad-dependent industries,
they will have to pay higher

portation, which will ultimately
Ultimately affect the price of the
product and the ability of that
company to compete and stay in
business. We are also telling the
communities involved that their
future industrial development
will be limited to those industries which ,do not require
rail service in any form.
To avoid this, maybe we
should direct our efforts toward
makings the- present rail
operations more profitable to
encourage the continuation of
the service.
One proposal along these lines
was submitted^ to the
Legislature this week. It .was
prepared by the HouseRepublican Task Force on
Rural Development and, in a
three-prong approach, would
offer tax* incentives for
railroads to invest in new
facilities and equipment, to
retain present routes' and
facilities and to keep them in
operation.'
'Beyond this, we may have to
resort to direct subsidies' just as
we are doing in the mass
transportation .systems. After
all, there isn't a great' deal of
difference in the degree of
public concern between moving
people and moving' material.
Jf you have any thoughts
about the whole question of
retaining/ or abandoning much
of Michigan's rail system, I
would appreciate hearing from
you. You may also wish to
express your views to the
