Edd C. Pridgeon

Taken By Death

Suffered Heart Attack Thursday
Morning; Had Served As Tax.
Collector for 16 Years

Edd C. Pridgeon, 67, tax collector
in Gulf county for the past 16&.
years, passed away about 10 a. m.
yesterday at his home in Wewa-
hitchka following a heart attack.
In addition to his widow, Mr-
Pridgeon is survived by five sons,
Edd C. Jr., of this city, Jack, Sam,,
Harland and John Henry, of We-

Mrs. Thomas McDaniel of Wewa-
hitchka.
Funeral services have not yet
been set, but will be held in We-
wahitchka, with interment in Jehu
Cemetery.
"Uncle Edd," as he was familiarly
known to all, is here no more. His.
smiling face and hearty greeting
will be heard no more at home, in
his office at the courthouse, on the
streets. His wise advice and kindly;
counsel will no longer be given to
friends and neighbors of all glasses-
He was an antidote for gloom and
grouch, always heartily advising
any who came around him grumbl-
ing about bad times, to keep their
troubles to themselves. He consis-
tently tried to spread cheer.
The world is indeed better for
"Uncle Edd" having lived. He is
gone, but his spirit 'lives on,

sportsmen and has been heartily
approved by others, will highlight
a special session of the state game
and fresh viater fish commission to
be held at 9 a. m. CST, May 5, in
Panama City.
The meeting, which will take
place in the city hall building, will
be held for the purpose of hearing
the sentiment of the general public
prior to establishing the season and
:bag-limit regulations for 1952-53.
At the present time Lake Wimico
and the Dead Lakes in Gulf county
are closed to fishing during April
and May, and certain waters in
Jackson and Calhoun counties.
,Several attempts to close off wa-
ters in the Third District during
these months have 'been made re-
cently, resulting in wide contro-
versey among sportsmen and con-
servationists, the conservationists
insisting that no closed season is
necessary and a large number of
sportsmen insisting that the ban
is necessary during the spawning
period to keep the stock of fish at
par.

Our Country 5-" Right or Wrong

THIS WON'T WASH
John B. Dunlap, internal revenue commis-
sioner (the man who wrote you that nice letter
about being extremely careful with your income
tax return), recently told congress that the gov-
ernment hasn't lost a penny in tax receipts thru
the misdeeds of its collectors.
This seems a bit hard to swallow, if you look
back at the box score:
Six out of 64 collectors were fired or quit un-
der fire.
Forty-six other internal revenue employes fired
or suspended.
Chief Counsel Charles Oliphant resigned un-
der fire.
Asistant Attorney General T. Lamar Caudle,
in charge of tax prosecutions, fired by your friend
(he ain't ours). President Truman.
Why, all these sudden separations? The record
is one of bribery, extortion and abuse of official
influence. If a collector was bribed to overlook
tax evasion, then jie government did not get
what was due. If he shook down a tax-dodger
who feared prosecution, the government did not
get what was due. And in every such instance.
the iydtim was the honest taxpayer lilk you a~d
me.
Mr. Dunlap had indicated that he had little
notion of what his collectors were doing. This
seems an unfortunate time for him to discover
that he does know .unless he is very sure
of the Newbold Morris whitewall.
This remarkable statement of Mr. Dunlap's


was made while he and his boss, Treasury Sec-
retary John Snyder, were asking for $52,000,000
more to run the bureau next year. He pointed
out that he needed 7,439 more employes for the
anticipated job of collecting seventy billions.
The cost figures out, he said, at 44/100 of 1%.
We would like to think that the tax gatherers
are now as pure as this famous fraction suggests.
MAKE IT NATIONWIDE
Some time ago the state of New York passed
what is known as the "Feinberg Law," prohibit-
ing employment in the public schools of people
who advocate the overthrow of the government
by force and violence. The law was obviously
aimed at teachers who are communists or party-
line followers. However, a great hue and cry was
raised to the effect that the law violated the con-
stitutional guarantee of free speech, and the mat-
ter was taken into the courts. Now the supreme
court has ended the legal controversy by declar-
ing the law constitutional.
It is difficult to see how any thinking person
with the interests of a free America at heart can
do other than enthusiastically applaud this ver-
dict. One of the primary goals of communism is
the utter destruction of free speech and all the
rest of the basic freedoms--as witness Poland,
Czechoslovakia and the other Iron Curtain coun-
tries, no less than the Soviet Union itself. A com-
munist is the slave of his ideology. Communist
doctrine holds that any lie or deception is both
justified and necessary if it will advance the end
of world cornmunismrn-which means world en-
slavement. That go's for the communist teacher
as well as any follower of Marx, Lenin and Sta-
lin. And the communist teacher is the most dan-
gerous of all-for he poisons and betrays un-
formed minds which caiinot tell a subtle lie
from a profound truth.
Every state should have a law on the Fein-
berg model. Communism in the schools must be
ruthlessly stamped out.

The political coincidence of the year is re-
ported from Murphysboro, 11. where presiden-
tial aspirants Taft and Stassen a load of bulls
arid'fi. e toiis of corn con merged sniul.ianeously
on the courthouse square,, causing a traffic jam
and 30 minutes of oratory,' Mr. Taft's from the
courthouse and Mr. Stassen's from the local
radio station.

Not all girls are interested in boys-some are
interested in men.

Holland Asks State To
Back Senator Russell
Senator Spessard L. Holland, in
Miami Tuesday, said that Florida
should stand with most Southern
states behind the candidacy of Sen-
ator Richard B. Russell of Georgia
for the presidency.
Holland said "the South has a jo'b


to do for the nation because it is
the last place in the nation that
doesn't have to play up to minority
blocs and shape up our thinking so
we won't alienate some redhot
bunch of liberals.
"We have a lot at stake in stand-
ing with the rest of the South and
insisting on the moderate kind of
things we have always stood for."

More power for Florida will come from a new 45,000 kw addition to the Avon Park Plant

'Mudslinging' Rules

Are Effective Today

Politicians Must Warn Opponents
S Before Taking Crack
: : "At Them

After today (April 18) it will- be
unlawful for a candidate, or other
person, to publish or circulate any
charge or attack against a candi-
date. At least that's what the state
rules and regulations pertaining to
political campaigns says. It comes
right out and, in plain language,
says that nothing like this can be
done 18 days before any election.
This law has been on the books
for some time, but, as far as we
can remember in previous cam-
paigns, very few candidates have
observed it.
However, as in most laws if you
are inclined to look far enough,
there is the usual loophole. In this
instance there is an exception to
the hard and fast rules. If you per-
sonally notify a candidate of your
charges against him and give him
a copy of the charges at least 18
days before the election, you can
plaster him right up. until election
day.
It's also ruled okeh to answer an
attack made on you previously by
your opponent, and if you inad-
vertently hint a little about one of
his family skeletons in answering
such an attack, the statement won't
be construed as a new charge.

Early Workers
In the famous perfume flower
fields of'Grasse, France, workers
must gather the blossoms of the
fragrant jasmin before the sun
-reaches its zenith, between 6 and 10
o'clock in the morning. Then they
carry the, aromatic flowers in bas-
kets to the essential oil factory
where flower oils are extracted for
use in all types of perfume.
