James H. Hall, Bay City, Tourist council chairman, said that requests for the Council’s summer vacation planning information are running more than 30 per cent ahead of the same period last year.

"If this trend continues, and we are confident it will, we expect that a record number of persons will vacation in Michigan this summer, " Hall said.

SPENCER STORY

State Representative Roy Spencer of Attica has introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives that would require the Department of Administration to fully comply with the state law requiring state vehicles to bear the state decal. Spencer said if the law that is currently on the books were fully carried out we would have little trouble identifying and keeping trace of state owned vehicles. Spencer’s resolution was the product of complaints of misuse of state cars. At least with state decals on them, we would have a good idea of when state cars were being used for private business, Spencer said.

The resolution calls for all state-owned cars, other than those used by the Detective Division of the State Police to display 12 inch decals of the state seal on center and left doors by July 1 of this year. In addition, three inch high letters spelling out, "For Official Use Only." Would be marked on both side and rear of the cars.
