a lange audience here Thursday af-
ternoon of last week. "We ccan make

"I'm sure most of you remember

of Colonel J. M. Lee," Fraser added.
"You good people of Port St. Joe
contributed to the total of 197,000

Junior C. C. Contributes,

$1500 for New Ball Park

The Junior Chamnber of Com-
merce last Tuesday turned over to
the, city commission a check for
$1500 for use in construction of the
new baseball park.
It was pointed out that this was
not a gift from the chamber, but
from the St. Joe ball club and was
given to the chamber, as the spon-
soring organization of a new ball
park, with the understanding that
the fund was to be given to the or-
ganization that actually undertook
the project.

Our Country Right or Wrong

WHAT THEY THINK OF HARRY'S BILL
The political bondage of the South has never
been more clearly demonstrated than in events
of the past few weeks. Chagrined beyond
measure at the outspoken anti-southern pro-
gram of Harry Truman, southern Democrats
today realize with shame the small part they
have come to play in formulating party policies
and to recognize the harsh fact that they are
held in utter contempt by the northern Demo-
crats that the once-boasted loyalty of the
South to the Democratic party has boom-
eranged to the disservice of all our people,
..--.. ; .- -Durant (Miss.) News.

J'K%". AI23S iWa ww ow2,M anao i a
It is becoming increasingly evident that we
dare not entrust the next four years of our
presidency to either Harry Truman or Tom
Dewey. 'They are both politicians first and
statesmen second. In order to win the radical
vote, which includes the northern negro vote,
and the chance to build a negro control in the
South, they will sacrifice American and south-
ern civilization. The so-called civil rights bill
is not a racial question primarily, but the etec-
tion of a federal dictatorship over the 'states,
which, like the first reconstruction, will en-
able the negroes with a few white scalawags
to dominate the South. This is especially dan-
gerous now because the Communiist elements
are able to dominate the negro mass vote.
-Jacksonville Chronicle.


The- South's blind and unswerving support
of the Democratic party is a political puzzle
that defies explanation, especially in view of
the step-child treatment it has received during
the past two decades. Traditionally the South
votes for anything that carries thq Democratic
label, and saddles its senators ang represent"
tives with the job of recruiting Republicani sup-
port to defeat the administration's anti-south-
ern legislation, _.-. *
.!!n '"-'-~ -Muenster (Texas) Enterprise.

A Washington dispatch quotes a Democrat
in Washington as sayiiig that not only has
President Truman no intention of withdraw-
ing his recommendation for the passage of civil
rights legislation affecting the South, but that
Senator J. Howard McGrath, the national


Democratic party chairman who is to speak in
Atlanta gt a Jefferson Day dinner, will stress
the necessity of passing such legislation in his
Atlanta speech. In other words, the party pro-
poses to come down here and cram it down
our throats. Yet we will have to continue to
stay in the party because there is no where
else for us to go.
-Greenville (S. C.) Observer.


We'll see if Mr. Truman can win without us.
Apparently he cares nothing about the South.
Let's adopt the same attitude toward him. We
have never gained anything'from the D)emo-
cratic party. What, in heaven's name, can we
lose by getting out?
-Pell City (Ala.) News.

If our president and Democratic leaders in-
sist on carrying out his policies we can see no
other course than withdrawing entirely from
a party which is determined to trample us and
what we stand for underfoot. In fact, we are
not so sure but what it would not be a bad
idea to withdraw from the party anyway,
since this same question hhs repeatedly come
up and the South has been forced to live with
this threat over it-s head so long that a just
and right solution now or in the future seems
very doubtful.
-Bishopville (S. C.) Messenger.

Harry Truman's racial equality war cry was
just what all the governors south of the Smith
& Wesson Line have been listening for It
gave them an excuse to fly to Florida in Feb-
muary. Don't get excited about the threatened
rebellion, 1 larry can carry oil on both shoul-
ders, and pour it on the troubled waters like a
cornfield nigger spilling 'lasses on flapjacks.
\Vhen the southern governors get to the White
House, H-arry'll be wearing a flowing nmus-
tache, a goatee, a Stetson hat and a Winsor tie
and be sipping a mint julep. He'll drawl, "Good
mo'nin', you-all." Then he'll explain that he
wrote that racial equality speech in good old
mid-west American, and the repudiation of
"\white supremacy' crept iii when his White
House interpreter translated it into Harlemese.
That'll be what the political descendants of
Jeff Davis want to hear. So, they'll believe ,it.
-Kingsville (Texas) Record.

Senator Taft, a candidate for president,
showed courage when he voted against the
fair employment practices commission, biill.
The Ohio senator declared that the compulsory
features of the act would "do more harm tnan
good in the end to the negro race." He then
gave utterance to a coQncise bit of wisdom
when he added: "Race discrimination must be
discouraged on a voluntary basis through edu-
cation, not by compulsory federal action."
That probably wasn't a politic statement for a
man who is seeking the Republican nomination
for president, but it shows that the senator has
an old-fashioned idea that it may be better to
be right than president.
-Tampa Tribune.

First to Use Bomb
The Austrian army was the firi
to use a bomb in warfare. The small
explosive charges, with slow burn-
ing fuses, were attached 1,, hot bal-
loons and allowed to drift over the
city of Venice in 1849. The bombs
did little harm, but they frighienedr
the Venetians badly.

Does a casserole play a leading role in your kitchen? It does
in mine... especially during Lent, when I serve lots of noodles,
beans and other foods with "baking ways." Let me tell you how

I fix my favorites.


HAVE OODLES OF NOODLES
fou needn't empty your purse to
mjoy Lenten dishes that fill you
ip. Just make them with A&P's
thrifty ANN PAGE NOODLES.
lrand dozens of ways! For, in-

peas, % tsp. salt,
dash pepper, 2%A
cups tomatoes (a
#2 can) and 2 tbsps. margarine.
Place in 1% qt. casserole; cover
and bake in moderate oven, 350F.,
about 50 minutes. Serves 4 to 5.

CABBAGE-HEAD-LINER!
Want a money-saver that's full of
flavor? Line a 1 qt. casserole with
2 cups of shredded cabbage; add 1
cup of tomato juice and a 1 lb. can
of tasty ANN PAGE BEANS
from the A&P, and bake in a hot
oven, 400'F., 50 to 60 minutes. 4
servings. P.S. If you're not observ-
ing Lent, place.2 or 3 bacon slices
over beans before baking.


SLICK SAINT PAT-TRICK
For a touch ,of green on March
seventeen, make sandwiches Em-

21/' slices of A&P's quick-melting

and arrange shamrock-fashion on
cheese. Broil 5 minutes, or till
cheese is melted.

Fire At ord Garage Gives
Editor Heart Palpitations

The fire department for several
months past has been sitting around
getting lazy and fat, but during the
past week or so it was given a bit
of a workout.
The call of greatest interest to
the editor was that at the St. Joe
Motor Company Thursday evening
ol' last week. Vic Anderson had
phoned us earlier in the day that
at last our n.Iw flivver had arrived,
and we were duly elated after wvait-
ing for two years for that word.
About 40 minutes later the fire
siren so-unded and when we phoned
central she said it ,was at the St.
.Joe Motor Company. We were bhor-
lialed! Were we to lose our car be-
!ore we got it? We left for the
scene of the possible tragedy with
our coattails flying (if we'd had oni
a coat).
Seems that the acetylene tank on
the w-lding outfit at the garage
had .exploded with a roar that had
been heard for blocks. Our new
jaloplpy had 'been sitting aill)Oni ten
feet frcm the tank but we
were in luck, for the flames from
the. tank went out at an-angle from
the car. And while thler-, were sev-
eral other cars in the shop under-
going repairs, the only one yanked
out in the alley was ours (we hadn't
paid Ott.o for it yet).
Capt. and Mrs. N. Murphy, visi-
tors from up north, guests of Capt.
and Mrs. S. Stewart at Mexico
Beach, had their car 'being worked
on at the time, and force of the ex-
ldosian blew his pipe out of his
mouth.
But to get back to the other calls
:iniNwer,'d by the fire department:
It was called out Wednesday of
last week to the Cook apartnoents
at tihe corner of Monument Avenue
and Sixth Streetwhere an oil stove
\-ploded. Little damage resulted.
Tuesday morning at 6:15 the fire
eddiess were called out in the rain
to Shirey's Motel. where- a gas leak
was ignited, when an electric heat .1i
was switched on the apartment of
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Barr. Outside of
scaring the daylights out of tlhe
Barr menage, little damage resulted
