HELP PROMOTE PORT ST. JOE BY JOINING THE JUNIOR CHAMBER OF COMMERCE THE STAR "TRADE AT HOME" SPEND YOUR MONEY WITH LOCAL MERCHANTS AND GET ANOTHER SHOT AT IT I If We Can't "Rib" Our Readers, We Don't Want 'Em To Read This Rag VOLUME XI PORT ST.'JOE, FLORIDA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 13, 1948 NUMBER 46 Three-day County- Wide X-Ray Survey Opens Next Friday Search Will Be Made for Unlknown Cases of Herat Disease, Can- cer and Tuberculosis A county-wide search 'for un- known cases of cancer, heart dis- ease and, tuberculosis will begin next Friday, August 20, and con- tinue through Monday when the moibile X-ray unit supplied by the state board of health swings into action in Gulf county under the joint, sponsorship of the county health department and the Gulf County Tuberculosis Association. A complete schedule will be found on page three of this issue of'TheStar. Dr. Terry Bird, county health of- ficer, says: '"In spite of the small number of cases of suspected tu- berculosis discovered in the survey ,last year, Gulf county had one resi- dent to die of tuberculosis last year -a death rate of 11 for every 100,- 000 people. It .is estimated that there are 105 active cases of tu- berculosis in the county today." X-ray., which, locates these dis- eases in the early, symptomless stages, not only gives the persons who are aifflicated a much betterr chance of recovery, but in the case of tulberculos'is it provides informa- tion whereby those around him may .protect themselves. By means of the X-ray it is pos- sible .for a physician to see the in- * side of a chest aild determine if the heart is enlarged, or if tfere is a tumor present, or it there is any tuberculosis infection. - Mrs. Watson Smith, president of the local tuberculosis association, urges everyone to take advantage of the free X-ray services next week. She added: "It is only- by finding the hidden cases in time to effect a cure, and by preventing the unwitting spread of tuberculosis, that we will ever be able to eradi- cate the disease." -- -------- Adam L. Smith Dies of Cerebral Hemorrhage Ada.m L. Smith, 3'3 years- of age, passed away Monday afternoon at the municipal hospital as the re- sult of a cerebral hemorrhage. 'Deceased, a native of Washingrwa :'`unty, had i;eer a. resident of Port St. Joe about a year and: was em- ployed, as a mechanic at the M. G. -Lewis & Sons Garage. Funeral services were conducted Wednesday morning ot 10 o'clock -by Rev. L. J. Keels, and interment was in the Vernon cemetery. -Comforter funeral rneme was in charge of arrangements. Smith is survived 'by his widow, Mrs. Vetta Smith, and a son, James Mathew Smith, o'f this city, and a sister, Mrs. Rosa Lind of New York City. EDITOR GETS 'RIBBING' ON EDITORIAL BOBBLE We can now state without hesi- tancy that the present governor of Florida is Millard Caldiwell. In last week's Star we stated edi- torially that Fuller Warren would occupy the seat now kept warm 'by Governor Holland. And ,since last Friday we've lost count of the number of chortling readers who have asked us: "What's hap- ,pened to Millard Caldwell? We thought he was governor," Or words to that eaect.

A Republican party which has been on the outside for 16 years is as unified as it has ever been in its history. Mr. Truman, despite the obvious aura of pessimism that pervades the Democratic party, seems honestly convinced that he can win, and is obviously determined to seize upon every op- portunity that might put the opposition in an uinftvoraMhle light. Henry Wallace's Progressive party looks as though it might corral quite a number of votes. While the Reublica'n and Democratic platforms went out on a long limb in an attempt to offer .as much as possible to everyone, the Progres- sives put them in the shade. Their platform as- sures world peace, promises socialization of basic industry even as it endorses "progres- sive" capitalism, pledges the immediate elimi- nation of any and all injustices to minority groups, and so forth. It was the longest and -wordiest of the three platforms and far the -most inclusive, but exceeding vague as to how its objectives are to be reached. It is possible that the Progressive party, -which is unquestionably backed to the hilt by . American communists and their fellow travel- ers and will pull in nitwits and malcontents, Swill receive between 5,000,000 and 10,000,000 votes this fall. Mr. Wallace, who will make a highly vocal campaign and will get a great deal of news- E paper space both here and abroad, may do con- J siderable harm to American prestige by his policy of appeasing Russia. He has a simple answer to the Berlin crisis-he would simply a; do what Joe Stalin wants and withdraw from $( the city. lie says nothing about what this I'o might do to the morale of the small nations d which have aligned themselves with the west. w Equally important is the fact that the'party's 12 platform (lid not say a single word in opposi- G tion to Soviet aggression. Even a very mildly vp worded plank, which would have put a little of the blarne for current world trouble on Russia, was defeated. If the Progressives are to be be- p lived, we are wild imperialists, while the Rus- 6E sians, it seems, are reasonable men whose only t wish is a just peace. g T'ihis attitude, naturally, is being given a ter- c rific play in the Russian press. The Kremlin's a objective is to make Europe believe that nei- F other the Republicans nor the Democrats rep- p resent true American feeling when it comes to foreign affairs, and that Mr. Wallaqe's stand has overwhelming public, backing. It remains to be seen how much capital the Russian lead- ts ers can make of that, and how much damage, e: if any, the Progressive party will do to Ameri- yE can standing. But it is a topic of very real im- portance todiy, even in the little backwoods towns like Port St. Joe. On the major party side. nothing new has been added. Mr. Truman's speech to the special session of congress followed his past state- inents. It has long been obvious that price con- i trol and his civil riights program will be his biggest domestic issues, and the speech laid: heaviest emphasis on those. The Republicans, as was to be expected, threw the blame for inflation back into the White House lap. The whole matter will be hammered around in an 'j infinity of detail when the candidates and their * seconds take to the country with their ap- 4 peals for votes.

St. Joe Electric Shop SERVICE REPAIR CONTRACTING Phone 377 Costin Building PORT ST. JOE, FLA. Speaker Urges Members To Live Ideals of Rotary If Followed "Peace Would At Last Come To This Earth," Says District Governor 1Emphasizing the individual re- sponsibilities on Rotarians: to live the "ideals" of Rotary International, Francis R. Bridges Jr., of Tallahas- see, Rotary district governor, Thurs- day night of last 'week told local service club members that in his opinion if the "ideals" were fol- lowed "peace would at last come to this earth and life would ibe abun- dant to all." Bridges was making his official visit to the Port St. Joe club and during the extended, session in the Hotel St. Joe he and members of 'the club discussed at length the many phases ofy the Rotary pro- gram. President Jake Belft of the iocal club was in charge of the meeting. During the discussion of "voca- tional service" ,by Rotarians, Bridges quoted the Rotary code of ethics and tied into that the Rotary "Four Way Test," that is: "Is it the truth? Is. it fair to all 'concerned? Will it build goodwill and better friend- ships? Will it be 'beneficial to all concerned?" Urging "youth service," Bridges referred briefly to the work of the SERVICE OFFICER WILL BE IN Florida parole commission, of which he is chairman, and insisted Ro- tarians. should take the lead in' of- fering "understanding guidance" to youngsters: He expressed the view that this country "can rightfully boast of the world's most stalwart youth, 'boys and girls, who, if given a chance 'in the right way, will make good citizens'." He suggested close co-operation by Rotarians with the work of the Florida chil- dren's commission and the Gulf county children's, committee, say- ing the organizations were "poten- tially fine groups if they work un- tiringly and have the whole-hearted prayerful backing of Rotarians and other good citizens." In closing, Bridges' insisted that members' of the local club "be work- ing Rotarians, Rotarians who by virtue of being members of Rotary are better men and better citizens in Port St. Joe, in Gulf county, in Florida and in the United States of A-merica."
