A Seven Part Series

By Jim Herman /
As June 30, 1973 drew near, the
citizens grand jury began work to draft
a total of 14 indictments.
The indictments were prepared for
presentation to Judge Miller by special
prosecuting attorney Radka. '
A meeting with Judge Miller was
scheduled for a Saturday. It was the
last day of the grand jury's term.
After extensive discussion, the grand
jury had agreed to submit 13 indictments against Tatro and one
against a second person. The person
and Tatro were charged jointly with
conspiracy, a felony.
All indictments began "true bills"
with the endorsement of J1ine grand
jury members.
The conspiracy, tying Tatro to the
other person, a grand jury member
said, was based upon the apparent
mishandling of a severance check
' written to Joseph Danaj, a former
airport employe.
But according to appropriate grand
jury law, indictments do not become
public until warrants are issued and
arrests are effected.
Judge Miller signed a warrant for the
arrest of Tatro, based upon the 12 indictments. But he refused to sign the
warrants on the conspiracy indictments. ,
The 12 indictments against Tatro
became public on July 10, 1973 whel\ the
former airport manager was arrested
and then arraigned before 90th District
Court Judge Arthur R. Reibel. Tatro
was released on his own personal
recognizance.
True Bills?
Several grand jury members admit
that Judge Miller's decision to not sign
a warrant on the conspiracy indictment
was upsetting to them and to Radka.

-shay Packs Historical Meet
r

Standing room only was

available at Wednesday's
meeting of the Little Traverse
Regional Historical Society at
the museum in Waterfront
Park.
They came to hear the story
of Ephraim Shay, the .famous
inventor who lived in Harbor
Springs at the turn of the
century. They heard about the
personality of the men first
hand from his grandaughter
Mrs. Ray E. Bassett of Ann
Arbor.
"Grandfather was always
thinking of ways to get things
done mechanically and I have
seven of his original patents
among my souveniers", Mrs.
Bassett told the audience. She
said there has been a nostalgic
revival of interest in Shay
locomotives and of the 2,770
Shays manufactured under
license between the years 1880
and 1945, less than 100 exist
today. Most of these still
operating today are used on
scenic railroads through

Bruce Gathman of Harbor

Springs owns several different
class models which he
exhibited at the meeting. These
are expensive "jewel-like"
models and Gathman gave a
demonstration of the Shay's
great traction power which
made it so popular among
loggers and miners who used
narrow guage tracks over
rough terrain.
Mrs. Bassett recalled her
childhood in Harbor Springs
and told how "Grandpa" Shay
built the Hemlock Special
locomotives in his shop for use
on the Harbor Springs
Railroad. "Baby" was named
after Mrs. Bassett. The
railroad was primarily a 15
mile long logging rail line
which ran north from Harbor
Springs to Stutsmanville.
During the summer months
Shay built observation cars and
ran a popular excursion train.
Shay also designed and built
the "Hexagon" across from the
railroad shops. It was a home

the Shay family to be the most
detailed and correct study of
the inventor and his geared
locomotive. It lists the
specifications for almost every
Shay locomotive ever built.
Civil War Vet
Born in Ohio and educated in
New Jersey, Shay moved to the
midwest as a young man before
he volunteered for a three year
"hitch" in the Civil War with
Co. "D" from St. Louis,
Missouri.
He married shortly after the
war and built saw mills in
Central Michigan. Shayville in
Eaton County was named after
the inventor and his saw mill.
After lumber4'tg near Haring,
Michigan in Wexford County he .
moved his operations to Harbor
Springs where he spent the
remainder of his life until his
death in 1916.
Shay's logging locomotive
was patented and manufactured under license to at least
two firms. The Michigan Iron
Works of Cadillac, Michigan

became popular where power

was needed.
On exhibit at the Shay
program was the original

judge's action was unfair. They

claimed they spent a lot of time and
thought on the conspiracy issue before
they decided to go ahead with the indictment. They were surprised that the
judge would disallow all of that after
only a brief look at the indictment, a
paper which bares only basic information concerning the charge.
"He could not have gone through the
evidence," a member claimed,
referring to the judge's decision. "He
was never there for the proceedings
and the transcripts didn't exist at the
time. The tapes were locked up. And
only the sheriff had the keys.''
At least one grand jury member felt
Radka would do something about the
judge's r~fusal to sign a warrant. But
he made no official effort to appeal, a
right he had at the time.
"When he left the chambers that day
he apparently forgot us,'' the grand
juror said.
Await Trial

'

Once it was obvious that the conspiracy indictments would not become
public, the grand jury members began
waiting for the Tatro trials.
"The whole grand jury felt there was
an undertone we couldn't get at ... we
felt there were things going on. So after
we found out the two indictments would
not come out, we kind of looked forward
to 1the trial.
. '"We thought if it could get to trial, the
whole thing would come out. We felt we
didn't have enough time."
The 13 grand jurors became civilians
again following the June 30 session.
Although it was within Judge Miller's
power to recall them at any time, he did
not.

testimony concerning the allegations

against Tatro. Stenographers completed the work and sent the copies to
Judge Miller. Judge Miller, following a
brief review of the transcripts, forwarded them on to the attorneys. That
took place in January and February,
1974.
Period of Silence
A request by Steadman to represent
Tatro was an indigent, an arrangement
under which the Traverse City attorney
would have been paid by Emmet
County funds for his work, was informally agreed to on February 8, 1974 by
Judge Fenlon. It was entered on the
Circuit Court Journal. But a final order
was never entered by the judge.
Steadm'a n shortly thereafter explained he would represent Tatro for
nothing.
The informal February decision was
the last official action in court on the
Tatro matters until Marc~ 10, 1975,
when the cases were dismissed by
Judge Martin B. Breighner.
In between little or nothing legally
occurred, aside from the filing of
Steadman's repeated request for a
speedy trial.
Consequently,
when
Judge
Breighner, who had served as counsel
for the Shorters in the autumn of 1972,
decided to dismiss the Tatro cases, a
period of silence ended. Although Judge
Breighner explained in his opinion the
basis of the defendant's right to a
speedy trial, he did not explain to
county residents what had gone wrong.
The grand jury, which had admittedly groped its way to 14 indictments, only tosee two withheld, had
seen little success in its efforts to apply
12th century law to 20th century
problems.
The effort extended beyond the grand

Obviously for my friend it
was a pretty scary experience.

resorting in areas where

months later.
That's when Judge Breighner agreed
with Steadman and dismissed the Tatro
cases on what was then termed a
constitutional issue, rather than on the
merits of the case. In considering
whether Tatro had been victim of
prejudice following the indictments,
Judge Breighner wrote:
"Mr. Tatro, by the nature of the
charges against him has been exposed
to public ridicule and embarrassment. He has been denied the
opportunity to have these charges tried
constitutionally within a reasonable
period of tiine.
"He lost his wife, who must most
certainly have been distressed because
of the existence of such charges. His
wife, June Tatro, was a material witness on his defense.
"Mr. Tatro has been continuously
burdened financially during this long
period of time. While the transcript will
evidence testimony of witnesses, of
necessity, recollections of witnesses
are in!Peded by the passage of time.
" Under the strain of the existing
charges, defendant Tatro has experienced tension and poor health. He is
now receiving a disability pension.
"Preparation for trial at this time
would require additional unjustifiable
legal expense, made necessary by the
loss of contact with the case, which is 20
months old... ''
New prosecutor John Salan did not
appeal the judges decision, a decision
which laid the grand jury matter to rest
legally.
But the decision left open a question
of how the breakdown o( a system

Appeal Never Filed

Court Blunder frees

Convicted Murderer
I

PETROIT (UPI)- A Detroit

man convicted of murdering his
wife has gone free for five
years without filing the appeal
that was the reason for his
release from prison.
Several officials connected
with the case said they
assumed the appeal had been
filed, and others were not
notified that Arthur McDaniel
had been released to appeal his
conviction in .March, 1968
shooting of his wife.
Recorders Court Judge Robert L. Evans, who ordered
McDaniel released for the
appeal, said Thursday he
assumed McDaniel's attorney
had filed the necessary papers.
The Michigan Court of
Appeals said an appeal never
was filed.
The attorney, Milton B.
Henry, said he doesn't remember whether he appealed the
second-degree murder convic-

tion.
A spokesman for the Wayne
County Prosecutor and his
office did not know the case
was being appealed and assumed McDaniel was in Southern Michigan Prison serving his
six to 10 year sentence.
A Michigan Department of
Corrections spokesman said his
agency has written- five ,letters
to Recorders Court asking the
status of McDaniel's case, But
Evans said he did not know
until Thursday that no appeal
had been filed.
Evans has ordered a hearing

for Monday to delve into the

reasons for the mixup.
"We are certainly not without
remedy in this matter," he
said. " I have jurisdiction over
the bond and status of the
defendant. We can see,that .the
appeal is processed immediately or order the defendant to
begin to serve his time
immediately."
Evans said Henry had raised
"interesting questions" about
jury selection before McDaniel
was sentenced on April2, 1970,
and had filed a notice that he
was going to appeal the case.

County Operates Well in Spite of _Rain

by Paula Holmes
LEVERING-In the thick of
the woods amidst the trees on
the Cameron property, a
special thing has been happening this week.
The first Girl Scout day camp
ever held in the North Emmet
area has been operating since
Monday. And neither rain,
mud,. nor mosquitos could keep
the Brownies, Junior and
Cadette Scouts away from
Camp Sunburst.
The girls were divided into
five units and each unit set up a
camp fire site and made tables.
The girls learned about fire

building,
cooking,
flag
ceremonies and many crafts.
Macrame and designs made
out of seeds were two of the
activities the girls took part in.
"We've had some pretty bad
weather," Laurie Strong, codirector of the camp, said. "But

Do Not Underestimate the Power

Of Women, Ambassador Says

Miss-Michigan is
looking for Job
"In one way," she said.
"becoming Miss Michigan in
terrupted my career and
private life. I'm relieved that
it's ending."
But at the same time, Miss
Short said, she would like to
retain some ties .with beauty
and tal~nt competitions -as a
judge.

MUSEKGON (UPI) -Miss

Michigan needs a job.
Susan Short, whose one-year
reign ends Saturday night when
she crowns her successor, said
Thursday she would like to
work in the broadcast field.
"In a few hours," she said,
"I'll be an unemployed queen.
I'm looking for work."
The 24-year old native of
Wauseon, Ohio, has a master's
degree in music from Western
Michigan
University
in
Kalamazoo and she originally
planned to teach voice on a
college level.
But, she said, working in the
broadcast industry seems more
attractive now.
Although she is giving up it
glamorous but grinding round
of appearances as Miss Mich.gan, she does not regret that
it is all over.

She also called her reign an

education in itself.
"I learned more about myself
in this past year than I did in
all six of my college years,"
she said. "But I'm still just
Susan Short."
Her final appearance -at
this \ year's Miss Michigan
pageant-includes singing several songs with master of
ceremonies William Wheless.
One of them is ''Call Me
Irresponsible.''

By GAY ~AULEY
lUPI Women's Editor)
NEW YORK (UPI) - Barbara M. White, a U.S.
Ambassador to the United
Nations, cautions that those
who look on International
Women's Year as "innocuous"
are underestimating the power
of the women's movement
world-wide.
The women are "revolutionary", she said. ,
Miss White, who is a member
of the U. S. delegation to the
IWY conference underway in
Mexico City, said that, "At
the... con(erence, you will see
representatives from vastly
different societies, in varying
stages of development, with
different problems and perceptionsoftheirproblems.
"But there will be a commdn
thread: Women as fqll and
equal participants in their
societies.
.

"Do not be lulled by the

seemingly innocuous sound of
_
_ these simple words, 'women as
'------------------------------~----.J full and equal participants"',
she said. "They are revolutionary.
"If you doubt this, just think
for a moment how far we are
from achieving them in our
own country-from recognizing
that an individual's role should
be determined not by simplistic
sexual stereotypes, but by
talent, capacity, inclination,
will."
Miss White summed up the
situation as she has seen it in
her global talks and travels this
way:
"Basically, women around
the world are getting the short
end of the stick.
"Circumstances vary," she
said, "but in every field women
play lesser roles ... in their

education, in their job aspirations. There are countries

where legal barriers need to be
removed ... some African countries where illiteracy among
women runs 80 per cent. ..
"But do not underestimate
the power to motivate, to
persuade, to stimulate human
beings to action. This is how
most of the world's work gets
done; not through the power of
a gun, but through the power of
hwnan motivation."

Barbara White
Miss White, who's from
Evanston, Ill., is the only
woman on the U. S. ambassadorial staff at the U.N. Her
role is specialist in political
affairs. She spoke of inequalities in an appearance before a
group of women reporters in
New York primarily to cover
fall and winter fashion collections. She expanded on her
views in an interview afterward.
Her appearance was in
connection with Colgate-Palmolive's salute to International

Women's Year. Colgate is a

leader in promotion of women
in professional sports including
golf, track and field, skiing and
tennis.
The ambassador had delayed
her departure for Mexico City
to participate in the salute.
Some 125 countries have sent
delegations to the conference,
which runs through .July 2.
Said Miss White, "When I'm
asked why the conference and
why the year, I answer, 'It is
an idea whose time has come',
just as the world food situation,
population, (saving) our enviropment were ideas whose
'time had come' and which also
have been subjects of conferences."
The U. S. delegation will
stress what the United Nations
proclaimed as. "a call to action
-to promote equality between
men and women, to integrate
women into the total social and
eConomic development efforts
of nations, and to recognize
women's increasing contribution to strengthening world
peace."
"But I expect some fireworks,'' said Miss White.
"Others will say, 'You can't do
much about equal rights for
women when the whole human
factor is to be considered."
The U. S. delegation is
headed by Mrs. Patricia Hutar,
on the United Nations , status of
Women Commission. Soine
countries have sent wives of
their presidents or prime
mihisters.
Mrs. Gerald Ford declined,
however, because of her busy
schedule. Miss White didn't
think the First Lady's absence
would weaken the U. S.
delegation-"we have a very
strong one," she said.
