St. Pete Rotarian

Says We Must Be

Firm With Russia

Visiting Speaker At Local Club Be
lives World Has Good Start
Toward Permanent Peace

Rotarian F. R. Francke of St
Petersburg, vice-president of the
Florida Power Corporation, was
guest speaker at the regular meet-
fing of the Port St. Joe Rotary Club
'Thursday of last week.
During the war Francke was witi
ltaval intelligence, and in this -ca
pacity 'became acquainted with the
Philosophies of many of our allies
and enemy nations. He said' thai
Russia is, the country which causes
us greatest concern at present and
he believes there is a chance for
complete understanding with our
great war ally, but that right now
she is making an immense amount
of noise in hopes of scaring peace-
loving America into granting her
concession after concession. The
only path for America to take with
Russia, he said, is one of frank-
ness and firmness or we, will have
another war.
"We must recognize the fact
that our enemies are smart and
are more cruel,'' said Francne.
"During the last war we played the
game with sportsmanship rules
against an -enemy who held no
rules.
"Americans are filled with pride's
and boastfulness because of our
present position in world affairs,
but we fail- to recognize our in,
debtedness to Sweden, Norway,
'Great Britain and many other na-
tions, for much of our progress in
invention and, discovery. We are
idealist, while Russia and Germ-
any are realist. We have great con-
cern for human life, but realists
place little value on life when po-
litical and economic objectives are
sought."
Francke went on to say that
there has never, been peace in the
world, but that we have never haO
a better start toward world peace
He believes that the slowness with
which the United. Nations Organi-
zation is moving may be indiiative
of the permanence of its final
product.
The St. Joe Rotary Club enter-
tained the planning board of We-
wahitchka last evening in the Flor-
Sda Power Corporation offices. Th-e
meetings of these two civic organt-
iations is doing much to stimulate
understanding and co-operation of
all residents' of Gulf county.

Bainbridge WinsI

Grid Game 20- 6,

The Bainbridge, Ga., high school
football team defeated the Port St.
Joe high gridders by a 20 6 score
here last Friday night at Centen-
nial Field under the lights, holding
the local lads scoreless until the
last few minutes of play.
The visitors made their first
touchdown in the last part of the
first quarter, making the extra
point with a neatly executed, place
kick. Their second score came
about the middle of the second
quarter, with the try for point fail-
ling, making the score 13 0.
St. JToe took to the air at this
point and was marching the ball
down the field to a possible score
as the half ended.
Bainbridge elected to receive as
the last half opened, and on a
series of plays carried the ball to
the St. Joe 25-yard line where, af-
ter losing, 30 yards, on a fumble,
were forced to kick.
The Saints !brought the ball back
to the center of the field and afte-r
making a first down lost the ball
to Bainbridge on an, intercepted
pass. The Bainbridgeites had car-
ried the pigskin to the St. Joe 18-
yard line at the end of the quarter,
and' upon resuming play for the
final period, with an end run put
the ball on the two-yard line, fol-
lowing up with an off tackle play
for the third touchdown. The ex-
tra point'was made with a place
kick. Score: 20-0.
,Coach Bubber Nesbit of Bain-
bridige ran in six of his second-
string mien at this point. St. Joe
received the kick, lost the ball on
an intercepted pass,, recovered, a
Bainbridge fumble and then, after
making a first down, lost the ball
on downs on the visitors' 40-yard
line.
After holding the visitors for
four downs the Saints, probably re-
alizing they couldn't buck the Bain-
bridge line for yardage, took to the
air and after clicking off 40 yards
lost the ball to Bainbridge on the
30-yard line, on an intercepted pass.
Bainbridge failed to gain on three
downs and kicked the ball out of
bounds on the St. Joe 45. The lo-
cals failed to make yardage via
the aerial route and lost the ball
to Bainbridge. On the first play by
the visitors, Gene Farri's inter-
'cepted a pass on his own 40-yard
line and ran 60 yards for the only
Saint score of the game. Attempt
at conversion failed.
With but a few minutes left to
play neither team threatene-d, and
the tilt ended 20-6 in favor of the
visitors.

Our Country Right or Wrong

ARMISTICE DAY
We dedicate this day to the memory of
those who fought and died on the battlefields
of World War I for the honor and principles
of their native land.
We dedicate this day to the spirit of peace,
to the unceasing efforts of all nations for in-
ternational cohesion in respecting inherited
rights without resort to carnage.
We dedicate this day to our sons and daugh-
ters and to those that shall follow them. We
pass to their/hands the destiny of our country,
knowing well that when time stills our de-
fending hands the flag shall be borne ever
forward.
(This, from the pen and heart of Darold E.
Decoe, 1931 commander of the Veterans of
Foreign Wars, should sound the keynote of
what is or should be in every American heart
as the dawn breaks next Monday over this
great land of promise and opportunity.)

THE REASON FOR SCARCITIES?-
A couple of weeks ago we couldn't find any
meat, then Truman said a few "magic words"
and now we have some pretty fair steaks--
although that old law of supply and demand
hasn't brought the price down to a reason-
able level.
The sugar supply around Port St. Joe isn't
what it should be, nor is soap very plentiful.
In fact, we could go on and on and name any
number of items which we have been unable
to find on dealers' shelves or show rooms.
Arid yet we can turn on the radio and hear
of refrigerators, electric ranges, nylon hose,
washing machines and gosh only knows what
being awarded "lucky" contestants.
And, chances are, those "lucky" winners al-
ready have a refrigerator, a washing machine


The Low Down-
from
Willis Swamp

Editor The Star:
Whut this here country needs
"less of" vs. "more of" is a sujek
fer research. Up to now we bin
going' in fer "more of"-we bin gi *
tin' more and more promises-and
less margarine. That sorta sums it
up. Any programme chairman at
of the Port St. Joe Woman's Club,
iffen she is up agin the problem
of a subjek, having' run out of psy-
chologists or geniuses with a flare
fer making' simple things compli-
cated (like Clay Lewis), they is
free to use my suggestion, and
delve into the "less of" vs. "more
of' subjek.
"~More of" lotsa things is good.
Tak leisure-that's good-but you
git it down to where you work
only 35 hours a week, there's 133
hours left over-56 hours fer sleep
and 77 hours fer devilment. And
iffen you choose to skimp a bit on
sleep, you kin cut it down to six
hours a day and kin have 91 hours
fer frolic.
But then agin on t'other side of
the argument on what we have


or whatnot, and have no more use for them
than they would have for another neck. But
meanwhile thousands of householders to whom
a refrigerator or washing machine is a vital
necessity must do without and' continue to ac-
cept from their local dealers the explanation
that "the factory is slow on delivery." We
can hardly blame them if they demand a bet-
ter explanation after listening to these radio
programs.

SUGAR SHORTAGES
Cuba raises fore than 4,000,000>tons of cane
sugar annually while the United States pro-
duces only 437,000 tons of cane sweets. For
many years the sugar beet has been cultivated
inii different localities of the nation, but it has
been unable to compete with cane sugar be-
cause the politicians in Washington have been
boycotting and slandering sugar beets and as
an agricultural industry ever since the Span-
ish-American war.
Cane sugar is one of the biggest political
victims in the whole western hemisphere. Of
course we all want Cuba to succeed, but it is
false economy to curtail and suppress the pro-
duction of cane and beet sugar in the United
States by juggling the facts and deceiving our
own people.
There is altogether too much trickery about
this so-called "tariff protection" for the
American public. Florida and Louisiana have
vast areas suitable for the raising of sugar
cane, and likewise vast areas ii). the west are
suitable for the production of sugar beets.
American farmers ought to be raising all of
our sugar.

With almost a steady stream of house-hunt-
ing folks coming into The Star office the past
two weeks, hoping we have something for
rent in the classified columns, has caused us
.to arrive at :he conclusion that hoboes arc
made and not born.

The president of RCA says soon it will be
possible to control the weather. We sincerely
hope not. Such controls would be bound to
fall into the hands of bureaucrats who'd hold
up all weather until they could decide which
way the wind should blow.

Seems like the more prosperous the people,
the higher the divorce rate. No telling how
many people. would stop putting up with each
other if they could afford to.

Since the Democrats have pinned the meat
shortage on Senator Taft, the question arises:
Has he got all the soap and sugar, too?

get damp and slip off the package
Print his full name, rank or grade,

curely wrapped the package. Print
your name and return address in

tents of the package, together with
your name and return address and
the full name, rank or grade, se-
rial number and A'PO number of
the addressee on a sheet of paper
and insert it inside the package
before wrapping. Reasons.: Pack-
ages may be broken open. If so,
postal authorities can check con-
tents, rewrap the package, re-atd-
dress it and continue it on its way.
Gifts should be packed in a
strong box with plenty of cushion-
