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.

The hotel had 1,900 rooms and 31 stories. On the island of Qahu they visited large dairy farms, All the milk and meet produced is consumed on the island. Sugar cane fields were visited. An acre of sugar cane wil^produce 15 tons of sugar. It takes a ton of water to produce 1 pound of sugar. Qnly one refinery is left, the rest of the raw t cane is shipped to California to ,be refined. The cane fields, are being plowed and turned into housing projects, because of the high cost of labor. Taro and watercress fields grown in water, also tropical fruits, and coconuts are other products raised on the island. They visited Punch, Bowl Cemetery and Ernie Fyte's grave.

Smoke and fire is still pouring from the volcano cones and they have a strong sulphur odor. They wadded in the black sand beach created by the lava. ' Another day they took a 20 min flight to'the island of Kauai, a very tropical island of interesting mountain plants, all kinds of orchids andflowers.A 214 hour boat trip where they saw fern grotto hanging upside down.

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 s SPRING BRINGS RAIN AND GREEN GRASS It's Time To Get Your Lawn Mowers and Garden Equipment Tuned Upi 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 • costs for other modes of trans- Cederberg liaison to visit county Stolz will be at the courthouse * ST JOHNS - Congressman Elford A.

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 Commissioners of the United States Interstate Commerce Commission, 13th Floor, CityCounty Building, Detroit, Michigan. From Pompeii .
