JOE, FLORIDA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1944 NUMBER G0 Anti-Roosevelt Faction Stopped Independent Party Would Put Electors On Ballot Pledged To Oppose President The recent announcement that an anti-administration independent party would attempt to place the names of its presidential electors on the Florida general election ba-- lot in, November, pledged to .vote .for any good Democrat other than Franklin D. Roosevelt,, brought prompt repercussion from state election authorities. 'Secretary of 'State R. A. Gray, Who is in charge, of the state elec- tion machinery, said that he had- made no final decision but "there is noi Way I know for an indepen- dent party to form and' get its. candidates on the ballot now."' Absentee ballots' for servicemen already have been printed with. only Democratic and Republican, candidates named and are being mailed out, and Gray said "Noth- ing but a supreme court order will stop me from sending them to the' state's soldiers and sailors." The secretary of state already has, told the Socialist and Prohibr- tion, parties they do not qualify as political parties under Florida law and, therefore, they cannot geL. their candidates on the ballot. Leaders of the independent party movement, who drew up a slate of presidential electors In Jacksonville' recently, -cotend a' 1943 law defines a minor political party as one which, has failed to elect a majority of the presiden- tial electors in two consecutive presidential elections.

Commenting on the action, Dis- trict OPA Director Chauncey But- ler said: "Thee decision to take these foods off rationing was rt decision of the War Food Admin- istration, which has the responsi- bility of determining when there are adequate supplies of food to allow removal from rationing. The action has been taken quickly anc there may be some inconvenience to the tradi and the consumer a, first; but we are doing everything we can to see that this move is put into effect in as orderly a manner as possible."

FRIDAY, SEPTrEMSER 15, 1944 q t 4 q 4 I 1 Bankers Plan Peacetime Role Edw ard Ball Assert s Bankia n I Keystone to Economic Setup of State Ways and means of solving post- war banking problems highlighted a two-day conference of the fifteen banks of the Florida National Group held last week at Jackson- ville and which was attended by 8. L. Barke, president of the local bank. Edward Ball, head of the Alfred I. duPont interests in Florida, told the visiting bankers that they must be -prepared not only for many postwar changes, %but also must anticipate a tremendous growth in Florida's commerce, in-' dustry and agriculture. "As Florida bankers we have a primary obligation to *advance the state's economic progress In every possible way," ,Ball sald. "We cPan 'do this'because we have a syimpua thetic .understanding of the .prob- lems and needs of our industries, commercial .enterprises and our farmers, and a willingness to fur- ther their interests in every pop- sible way. "We accept our responsibility for .leadership and co-operation that extends far beyond that of the average businessman.' Banking is the keystone of our economic struc- ture. We will help to provide' the kind of far-sighted, constructive as- sistance that will hasten Florida's development." 'A large portion of the confei- once was devoted to a discussion of the, policies that will guide the ,banks' of the Florida National Droup during the transition from war to peace. TIRE APPLICATIONS PILE UP (Continued from page 1) misinterpreted the word "eligible" and thought OPA meant "avail- able." T.he number of applica- tions immediately rose sharply and is still rising. As a result, appli- cations now far exceed passenger tire quotas, in spite of the fact that the passenger tire situation has actually worsened nationally because of increased military die- mands. Facts are that the local board must continue to value each appli- cation as to need of the tire in terms of necessity to the war ef- fort and in view of the reduced ,tire quota for Gulf county. Hencn, many motorists will receive no tires, although they are, technically eligible, until the general tire sit- uation shows marked improve- m'ent. 'At present the Gulf county board Swi'lscarcely be able to fill acute -..jneeds. Efforts of others in flood- ig-t he' board with applications and personal calls will only add to the congestion and. hamper the board's efforts to distribute fairly what tires are available.

In.the not distant future it will en- joy a similar distribution of world products. That this is no idle dream is evidenced by the announcement of low-cost commercial air service designed to expand postwar interna- tional trade and tourist travel. To gain some idea of the potential inter- national cargo business, it is interesting to note that domestic air express totaled 48,689 shipments in July, an increase of 16.7 per cent over July, 1943. This is a foretaste of the volume that will develop with expanded international trade. With the coming postwar aviation pro- gram, unimagined avenues of trade will be blazed to every corner of the world and pai- ticularly to South America. Our- distribu- tion system is now being co-ordinated to ren- der a service never before dreamed of. Thou- sands of new jobs will come into being along with thousands of new opportunities for ad- vancement, 1not only for individuals but for communities.

NO LONGER A 'FORGOTTEN CROP' "This is a crop I'll never neglect again," many Gulf county farmers today are saying of pulpwood because of their experience dur- ing the last year. Many farmers started thinning their wood-, lands a year ago in response to government appeals and because it was a patriotic thing to do. Now they are keeping it up because they've found pulpwood cutting is also good business. A year ago Secretary of Agriculture Claude Wickard observed that many American farm- ers "have a forgotten crop that can be har- vested any time" in an appeal for greater pulpwood production. Today he would have to change his description of pulpwood. It is no longer "a forgotten crop." Lots of our farmers have war bonds to show for the pulpwood they have sold in the last year. Others have new farm equipment or cancelled mortagges. All have improve woodlands if they thinned their trees prop. erly. Pulpwod has been a lifesaver for many small farmers who heretofore relied on a single crop for their livelihood. Too often a perverse weather-a long drought or a se- vere storm-wiped out their season's work before harvest time. Patriotism often pays in cash as well as in the satisfaction of knowing that one is serv- ing his country. OVERSEAS GIFT MAILING Just a reminder to, readers that Christmas gift packages to servicemen and women abroad must be mailed between September 15 and October 15 to arrive at their destination in time. Bear in mind that gifts must be wrapped securely in strong boxes, bearing plainly the address of both the sender and addressee. . Also, place this same forwarding information inside your package. Remember, too, that perishable goods, intoxicants, inflammable materials (matches, cigaret lighters, etc.), poisons or weapons of any kind are strictly prohibited. The postoffice department's final admonT- tion is to mark all parcels "Christmas Gift Package." The story is told that an Italianr prisoner of war working on a peanut farm in the South recently told the owner that Mussolini had told the Italians that they would soon be marching across the plains of the. United States. "What he \didn't tell us," the prisoner said, "was that we'd have to pick up ,peanuts on the way."--Tyler (Texas) Journal. We knew it Last week in an editorial we used the expression worserr and worser," and as we. wrote it we knew that someone would hop on us about it, telling us there just ain't such a word as worserr."
