Ward Mayrand, public relations
chief of the Michigan department
of Aeronautics, and Bill Hamlin, engineer with the same department,
flew in from Lansing to convey the
state's belief in the potential of an
improved field to the community.
Mr. Mayrand said that there are
about 84.000 private aircraft in
contrast to only 2000 commercial
carriers throughout the nation. The
next ten years, he said, would show
the greatest growth potential in private aircraft purchases. In 1960 over
5000 plus planes were sold for approximately $27,000 apiece. He said
we c a n t expect to attract this traffic, however, until we have the necessary facilities.
The first step is to remove the
hazard of the power lines and trees.
The state men said that the airport
could be credited for half the money used in the removal of the trees
This would reduce the total money
needed by the airport board for removal of the power lines to around:
$2,000.
"
Val Frederick. Watervliet Paper
company general manager, stated
that the trees would be removed at
no cost to anyone and he wouldn't
be a party to any subterfuge. Mr.
Dean McKinny. Chamber of Commerce president and mill personnel
manager, reiterated by saying that
we didn't want another "Estes
case."
The state men, however, assured
those present that they only needed
an estimate of the cost of the tree
removal and that how it was done
or the exact cost did not actually
matter to the state. The airport
could still receive 50 per cent credit
for the estimate of the work done.
When asked if the city and township could possibly borrow the money needed. Mr. Frank Runyon, Wattervliet Township supervisor, said
that the township had operated on
a balanced budget for 21 years and
he was not going to spoil that record. He went on to say that township funds were limited and that
the only way would be to go to the
people for a millage vote. However,
he said, it should not be a "peanut
job." The voters should be asked to
give enough money to do a job.
Also present at the meeting were
represenUtives from the Coloma
City Commission, Chamber of Commerce and Coloma Township supervisor, Charles Watts and Roger Carter. respectively. They could give
no indication of the interest in their
city but came to listen.
Joe Flaugh. Twin Cities Airport
Board member for several years, also came and spoke with enthusiasm;
on the value of an airport to their
community. He said he doubted that
Whirlpool Corp. would still be there
if the Twin Cities had not given
them the air service they needed.
He felt that Watervliet would find
their airport of value in the same
measure.

Airport Proposal Project
Passes At Second Election
It was a foregone conclusion in
March of 1947 that the citizens of
Watervliet would be asked to vote
on an airport project at the April
election. Gordon H. Lewis sent the
following informative communication to the Record which was printed as follows:
"Perhaps never again will the
people of this and other communities have the opportunity of building an airport by furnishing only
.25% of the necessary funds.
"I think most people now agree
that some day we will really need
an airport. Isn't it better to build
now, with state and federal funds
available to pay most of the cost
than to wait until we find ourselves
compelled to build and perhaps
have to do it with no financial aid
f r o m anyone?
•"At present the federal government has appropriated 500 million
dollars for airport construction during the next seven years. This money will be entirely spent during
these seven years — if our share
is not spent here, then it will be
spent elsewhere. There is no assurance that money will be available AFTER this appropriation is
gone. This fund is available to pay
u p to 50% of the total cost of our
airport including 25% of the cost
of the needed land.
"To go with it, the State of Michigan has one million dollars to
spend this year of which $15,000 is
to be spent in Berrien county.
There are only three places where
it can be spent, Niles, Benton Harbor. and Watervliet. If we do not
accept our share. THIS YEAR, it
will be divided between the other
two. State funds will pay up to
2 5 % of construction costs but none
of the land cost.
"Briefly then, the costs are as
follows:
Total land cost
S 8.700.00
Federal share
2.175.00
Local share
6,525.00
Already paid

$ 9.825.00
On hand now
700.00
Due from federal funds
on land already paid for

Still needed
$ 8.637.50
' T h e above figures are only approximate. but are quite close to
t h e true values as they are based
upon a complete plan which has
already been approved by both the
slate and federal planning commissions.
"We have already been granted
federal funds up to $12,800 providing we raise our share. This appropriation is for THIS YEAR. If not
used by us it will be spent on some
other airport — it will not be held
for us until some future date when
we might decide we do want it.
"Let us now see just how much
each of us would have to pay to
raise $8,637.50.
"Our city and township together
have an assessed value of just about
$3 million dollars. A tax rate of
three dollars on each one thousand
dollars of assessed value would return $9,000 in one year and would
pay our entire share of the airport's
cost. Or, we could spread it over
a three-year period, paying only
one dollar on ejich one thousand
dollars of assessed value per year
for only three years.
"One more item remains to be
considered. In the contract of the
persons who will oDerate the field
and act as managers of the same
there is a clause under which the
main hangar — which will cost
the operator at least $5,000.00 to
erect — will become the property
of the airport owners (City and
Township) at the end of five years.
"We therefore will own one $30,000.00 airport with proper drainage,
all obstructions removed, graded
and sodded runways, public rest
rooms, a $5,000.00 main hangar,
and around 110 acres of land for
a total investment of only $8,600.00
in addition to what has been donated to date." Gordon Lewis.
In April of that year, a proposal
to raise $9,000.00 jointly with Watervliet township for a Watervliet
airport to participate in a s-tate and
federal grant was "No" 193; "Yes"
192, with one blank ballot being
cast.
Undaunted by the single vote defeat of the proposed airport project,
the Airport Board met in a special
session to lay plans for resubmitting the measure to the voters immediately at a special election.
Reversing itself from the April
7 election the Watervliet city taxpayers in a special election on Monday of this week went on record by
a four vote margin as favoring
the raising of $4,500.00 locally toward the development of a Watervliet airport. In the stoutly contest
ed special election, the taxpayers
voted favorably, 187 to 183.
Though no preponderance of sentiment was shown in favor of the
airport, the vote will, none the less,
enable the city and township.

with development of the airstrip

raising of $9,000.00 between the
city and township will put the Wattervliet airport in line for upwards
of $20,000.00 in state and federal
aid.

Peace Cerps Couple Write From West Pakistan
The foUowing letter is from Norman Jordan, a cousin of Jordan Tatter of Watervliet. The letter was
brought to our attention, and because of the interest it evoked and
the fact that this is the first correspondence of any sort from a
member of the Peace Corps to
which we have been exposed, we
felt it was certainly worthy of publication.
Dear Tatters,
Seasons greetings from Lyallpur,
West Pakistan. This may or may
not come as a surprise to you so
I guess 1 had better explain just
what we are doing here and why.
You see Delores and 1 were quite
happy and contented in our mountain town of Evergreen — we loved the area, were satisfied with our
work at Forest Heights Lodge, and
were going busily about our business of getting our 8 acres of mountain property developed with roads
and building sites. Then one day.
there was an article in the Denver
paper about the Peace Corps training program which was soon to
start on the CSU campus for volunteers going to West Pakistan. They
expressed a need for fellows with
an agricultural background and
training. 1 jokingly asked my wife
if we should go — she took me seriously and here we are.
We have been living on faith and
uncertainty ever since that day.
First was the decision of whether
we really wanted to go. The hardest part was the idea of leaving
Forest Heights Lodge and the boys
we have learned to love. Then Washington had to decide if they wanted
us. The training program started
the first of September and we hadn't received our acceptance telegram until about a week earlier.
Our training has been long and
strenuous. We had 2 months in
Fort Collins which consisted of
classes on US history, civics, foreign
Open Every Week N.te
policy, Pakistan history culture, religion. etc. as well as P.E., mental
and physical health lectures. First
Aid and technical training. Then
after 11 days home leave in which
part was spent packing and shipping freight to Pakistan, we left for
26 days training in Puerto Rico.
This was mostly physical t r a i n i n g rock climbing, hiking, and survival
swimming. It was a very enjoyable
time except for the rain which
came so often. We could hardly ever get anything dry. On the 7th day
of December, we left Puerto Rico
by jet and hopped from one country to another. Puerto Rico to New
York to London to F r a n k f u r t to
Vienna until we arrived at our next
training site of Peshawar, just a
few miles from the famous Kyber
Pass and the Afghanistan border.
And so with Thanksgiving in
Puerto Rico. Christmas in Peshawar, and New Years in Lahore, we
are ready to get at our jobs in

Lyallpur. The country here is such
a land of contrasts that there is
always something new and exciting at every turn. The ox-drawn
plows vs. tractors, the horse-drawn
tonga vs. the jets going overhead,
the little burros carrying dirl on
their backs vs. large equipment
building dams and canals, the people whu are poor and live in mud
houses vs. the rich living in mansions. It is a new country — just
over 14 years old and yet the area
has been inhabited so long that the
soil was depleted in Christ's time.
The problems which the country
is trying its best to face squarely
and realistically are, the tremendous population which must be fed.
the shortage of food, a water logged
and saline land which is rapidly going out of production, and a mass
of population with little or inadequate medical and school facilities.
This is the land which we now
call home and are going to find our
challenge for the next 20 months.
It is going to be both delightful and
yet discouraging, a place where at
times we are going to hate and yet
love at the same time. We arc hoping for the best, expecting the
worst and believe that next Christmas will find us well adjusted and
at home here. In the meantime,
write and let us know how things
are on the other side of the world.
We have been getting along just
fine here. Pakistani food is quite
spicy but good. We have been invited into several villages and have
always been treated with the utmost friendship and welcome. We
are usually the object of curiosity
to the children and probably the
adults — especially our girls with
their western dress. In most villages the men never even see any
women as they are observing purda
which is a religious custom of covering their faces. Standards of modesty are quite different as you never see a woman's legs or even
ankles but the midriff is commonly
seen. Many Pakistani men wear
western clothes so we are not as
conspicuous.
Life is quite different here and
very interesting. 1 am still quite
awed by the sight of the water buffalo-<lrawn carts and camel caravans going right down the center
of a city of 750 thousand people.

More Children Hurt
In Railroad Trespassing
According to Fred J. Herber.
president of the Michigan Railroad
Police Association, more and more
children are being injured and killed as the result of trespass on railroad tracks and yards. Vandalism
is also on the increase due to juvenile trespass.
Children taught to respect property rights of others will indeed
grow into our future responsible
citizens. You. as a parent, can do
more in molding your child's behavior pattern than all the concentrated efforts of law enforcement agencies.

Wilson recommended that Father's

It was on June 17, 1910, that a

a dirt street in Spokane. Two ladies
were in the carriage and on its floor
was a bundle containing gifts for
shut-in fathers on the nation's first

was Mrs. Dodd, the daughter of a
Civil War veteran, William Jackson.
"Father's Day has seen progress

added, "I experience indescribable

An Associated Press story coming

interesting Father's Day story that
I have ever heard. Louis Carrizales,
a Cherokee Indian, who has lived
in Des Moines for about 40 years,
claims he is the oldest father in the
state and is the father of 13 children, the oldest 82 and the youngest 9 years of age. He is said to be
the oldest physically fit man in the
world. He claims to be 103 years
old.
Carrizales was born in Oklahoma
in 1859 and never saw a white man
until he was 18 years old. His father was Chief White Horse. He
says he once worked on an Oklahoma ranch with Buffalo Bill Cody.
He knew the late Will Rogers and
toured with Ringling Brothers and
Cole Brothers circuses.
Carrizales says he married for
the first time when he was 21. after a visiting Englishman persuaded him to go to England with him.

When you promise something will be there, a Chevrolet truck will
help you keep your word almost to the point of monotony.
I t will do its job over and over and over again, with seldom any
trouble, at very low cost. What more can you ask from a truck?
Because of their reliability, people have put more Chevrolet trucks
to work every year since 1937. That's a strong vote of confidence.
