According to a telegram received here by J. R.

Local Schools Swing Into Growing Trend Immunization Clinics Taken Out of the Classroom; "Shots" To Be Given Saturday Mornings The schools of Port St. Joe have swung into the growing trend to- ward taking the immunization clin- ics out of the school room. It is a known fact that the clinics in the school disrupt classroom routine. Before the immunizations are be- gun, each child will have an oppor- tunity to learn why he should have his "shots." The public health nurse, Mrs. Letitia Preston, is helping in th e pre-educational immunization program by providing materials for use of the teacher in helping the child and his family to have .a bet- ter understanding of the import- ance of their "shots." This program is planned to help eliminate fear by giving parents and children keener knowledge of the benefits to be derived from their "shots." Each teacher will an- nounce to her class the Saturday they are expected to report to the health department, and parents are heartily invited to come and bring the other children at the same time. In co-operating with the schools to help this new idea become a re- ality, Dr. Terry Bird, Gulf county health officer, announces that im- munization clinics will be held each Saturday morning from 9 to 11 o'clock at the county health depart- ment, 224 West Sixth Street.

The Communists always claim that theirs is a perfectly legal party, like the Democrats and the Republicans, and that they have a constitutional right to carry on their activities. What that position actually means was well described recently by Judge Learned Hand of the circuit court of appeals. He was speaking for a unanimous court upholding the conviction of the eleven Communist leaders in New York last year. He said: "They claim the constitutional privilege of going on indoctrinating their pupils, preparing increasing numbers to pledge them- selves to the crusade, and awaiting the moment when we may be so far extended by foreign en- gagements, so far divided in counsel, or so far in industrial or financial straits, that the chance (of successful revolution) seems worth trying. That position presupposes that the First Amend- ment assures them freedom for all preparatory steps and in the end the choice of the initiative, dependent upon that moment when they believe us, who must await the blow, to be worst pre- pared to receive it." Communism is not a political party. It is a revolutionary movement owing total allegiance to a foreign government. its se)e aim is to de- stroy us. Aviation thrills, but one drop kiEs.

Florida Gets Smdl SumUnderFederdal Fisheries Aid Bi0 Too Many Residents o+ Statei Exempted From Buying Fishing Licenses Florida will annually receive an estimated $62,575.95 for fishery res- toration and management projects under the new Dingell-Johnson fed- eral aid to state fisheries act re- cently signed into law by President Truman. The sum places Florida in the rel- atively low position of twenty-third among those states receiving a ma- jor portion of the federal funds. With an estimated $46,931.96 com- ing from federal apportions of the 10% excise tax on sport fishing tackle, and the remaining $15,643.99 being contributed by the state it- self, Florida ranks far below such states as California and Michigan, which will receive an estimated $176,000 each. "It may seem strange to some that with all of its famed game and sport fishing in salt and fresh wa- ters, Florida will receive such a comparatively small portion of the 'DJngell' funds," said Coleman New- man, director of the state game and fresh 'water fish commission, "but all of those states which rank so far ahead of Florida are those that have a uniform fishing license reg- ulation under which almost all sport fishermen are required to have li- censes. In comparison; an estimated 75% of Florida's fresh water fisher- men, and all of its salt water fisher- men, are exempt, for various rea- sons, from purchasing lishing li- censes." Under the Dingell Johnson act, 60% of the federal funds are dis- tributed among the states in the same ratio that the number of fish- ing licenses sold in each state bears to the total sold in all the states. The remaining 40% of the funds are distributed to the states in the same ratio as the total land and water area of each state bears to the total area of all the states. While such states as Michigan demand that practically all fresh water fishermen be licensed, and California, in addition, demands all of its salt water fishermen also be licensed, Florida exempts all fish- ermen using poles in the county of their legal residence, all children under 15, and all residents over 65 years of age, or an estimated 75%. In addition, Florida requires no li- cense for salt water fishing. All these exemptions resulted in Florida selling only 1.8% (or 274,. 016) of the 15,000,000 fishing li- censes sold in the United States in 1949.
