Waste and Extravagance .of
Truman Administration
Is Turning Tide

By RUSSELL KAY
It seems that not all Florida Dem-
ocrats are so imbued with .down-
the-line party loyalty that they are
willing to march meekly to the polls
and vote the Democratic ticket
whether or no.
Southern Democrats are far from
happy. They realize now that they
have been taken for a grand and
glorious' ride, and they are deeply
hurt and angered. Evidence, of this
is becoming more and more ap-
parent.
I have received a circular issued
by the Columbia Cpunty Democrats
for Eisenhower. It 1is refreshing and
bespeaks hope for America. It ad-
vocates that voters put patriotism
above party, principles above poli-
tics, and urges Democrats to vote
for Eisenhower, but calls for party
support as far as state and local
candidates are concerned.
A similar resolution comes from


Season To Open On


'Flying Bullets' Oct. 1

Dove Hunters To Have Two Open
Seasons With Hunting Daily
From Noon Until Sunset

The shooting of "flying bullets"
seems to be on the verge of becom-
ing one of the great hunting pas-
times in Florida, according to the
state game commission, for data
from last year's hunting season re-
vealed that more than 33,000 sports-
men walked through the fields in
search of the elusive and speedy
migratory game bird, and their suc-
cess was marked by a bag of 524,-
400 dotes during the season.
Prospects for the coming season
call for an even greater number of
hunters and an even greater shoot-
ing period as many thousands of
nimnrods try their luck.
This year Florida will have two-
state-wide mourning dove seasons,
one during the fall and the other in
the winter. One will run from Octo-
ber 1 (next Wednesday) through
October 15, while the second starts
December 15 and ends December
29. The split;season was agreed to
as the one that would be fairest to
all hunters in all sections of the
state.

Our Country Right or Wrong

OUR HISTORIAN AT WORK
Your friend (he ain't ours) President Truman
has thrownthe short and ugly word, like a hunk
of raw fat, into the heretofore glowing political
embers, aild we now behold a blazing fire. In
a snarling "non-political" speech welcoming a
group of dazed, newly-naturalized citizens into
our "Promised Land", he explained "the big lie"
as "a weapon of political warfare, developed by
the Communists, perfected by Hitler." "It is a
big lie, for example," he said, "to say that we
tolerate Communists in our government."
At his press conference next day, he was asked
about Eisenhower's statement that he had re-


fused the presidential order to take command of
the railroad strikers in 1946. No such conversa-
tion ever took place, replied High Hat Harry. At
this point, an aide whispered in the Truman ear.
The president then added that perhaps it is pos-
sible somebody else may have had such a con-
versation, he certainly didn't.
But then, in his folksy message to the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor convention, he warned:
"Some of the special interests are already grind-
ing their axes for a fresh attack on labor in the
event of a Republican victory," and that right
now these "plans are afoot in Wall Street."
Some time ago you may recall the president's
explaining how hard he worked at his job, and
likening himself to a character he said was buried
at Tombstone, Ariz., and whose epitaph read:
"Here lies Jack Williams, he done his damnndest."
And if you think that's a lie, big or little, that
grave-marker is out there for you to see .... The
people of Tombstone erected it after your friend
(he ain't ours) Harry had spoken.


TIME FOR A MORATORIUM
A routine announcement from the department
of agriculture may prove more devastating than
the atom bomb. While ordinary 2, 4-D chemical
weed-killer injures tomato plants, the department
reports, modified forms are beneficial and have
"caused fruit to 'set'," and tomatoes developed
without pollination.
That's all right for tomatoes, but science has
gone just about far enough.

Keep smiling-and buy Defense Bonds.

A R-T S


Sister of Mrs. T. H. Stone
5 Dis In Georgia Hospital

Mrs. Albert C. Deen, 60, of Quit-
man, Ga., sister of Mrs. T'4 9 1t' ,'
of this city, died Sunday, Septem-
ber 7, at the Brooks county hospital,
near Quitman, following a four-day
illness. She was the former Miss
Fannie Avan Wynn and was born
in Glenville, Ga., April 22, 1893.
Funeral services were held Tues-
day morning at the Quitman Meth-
odist Church with the pastor, Rev.
L. D. Shippey, officiating, assisted
by Rev. W. 0. Hander. Interment
was in the Oak Hill Cemetery.
,Mrs. Deen and her late husband
had always put the church and its
work first in their lives, and as a
tribute to the love and esteem in
which the couple were held, the
members of the Woman's Society
of Christian Service voted to place
a memorial window in the chapel
honoring Mr. and Mrs. Deen.
,Mrs. Deen, a woman of quiet mien
with a gentle, kind heart, had
served in various official capacities
in the W. S. C. S. and in many of-
fices of the Order of Eastern Star,
having served as worthy matron
for several years. She had been a
resident of Quitman since 1923.

In Memory of Mrs. A. C. Deen
/t's with submission to God's will,
For He doth all things well,
That we pay tribute to Mrs. Peen
Who with us so long did dwell.
She was gentle, kind and loving,,
Gladly serving when she-could.-
Though her health was slowly failing,
She did far more than she should.
Now she's gone, to make her home
In our Father's house above
Where He has so many mansions
And where all are filled with love.
So let not our hearts be troubled,
Neither let us be afraid,
For some day we'll be together
If God's will we have oheyed.
She will still live on in Quitman,
In our hearts she will remain,
Never growing any-older,
Always looking junt ine same.
-Written by Mrs. Allie D. Griffin.

FLORIDA DEMOCRATS

(Continued from page 1)
cratic party no longer represents
the true Democrats of the South.
. It has harbored Communists
in high places and labeled all at-
tempts to dislodge them "red her-
ring."
It considers that the party's nom-
inee was handpicked. by Harry S.
Truman and that the basis for the
selection was knowledge that if
elected this candidate would con-
tinue the Truman policies and di-
rect the nation further down 'the
road to disaster and corruption,
The Clay county resolution points
out that the platform of the na-
tional Democratic party is a so-
cialistic program and deserts the
fundamental democratic principles
upon which the party was founded;,
and which principles were adhered
to prior to the advent of the "New
Deal" and "Fair Deal" cliques who
have stolen the party name and the
national party machinery.
Denounce Waste and Extravagance
It denounces waste and extrava-
gance and the growth of a gigantic
central government bureaucracy inE
Washington. It points out that both
Democratic nominees have again
and again indicated their inten-
tion to continue to follow the Fair
Deal line with its trend to social-
ism, centralized bureaucracy, and
civil rights program, including the
FEPC.
It points out that "the national
convention, under domination of the
above groups, nominated'Adlai E.
Stevenson for president, a man who
has been a close associate of the
unscrupulous Fair Deal bureaucracy
and such radicals as Alger Hiss, a
convicted perjurer and a traitor to
the United States. It nominated
John J. Sparkman for vice-presi-
dent, a Southerner who has de-
serted true Democratic party prin-
ciples and is a recognized Fair-
Dealer, who has 'sold his birthright
for a mess of pottage'."
It calls attention to the fact that
the election laws of Florida provide
that Democrats. shall vote-,bnlyfor
a majority of the nominees of the
party in order to qualify as Demo-


OTTO-


.crats, and opposes placing blind
loyalty to the party label above
God and country.
Urge Voters To Support Ike
It points out that the platform
and nominees of the Republican na-
tional convention, while not wholly
acceptable to the committee, "do
more nearly conform to the official
platform of our committee than .do
the national Democratic nominees."
It urges Florida Democrats to
support state and local nominees,
but vote for Eisenhower'for presi-
dent, and adds: "Recognizing the
fact that an unholy alliance of non-
Democrats have seized control of
our Democratic party nationally, we
respectfully urge the Democrats of
Clay county, following the general
election of 1952, to either co-operate
with any sincere national effort to
form a new party, or reorganize
the Democratic party of Florida as
a completely independent party, in
opposition to any nationally con-
trolled party which does not ad-
here to sound democratic prin-
ciples, in order to save American
constitutional government and stop
the present trend to socialism and
eventual totalitarian dictatorship."
This revolt of Democrats seems
to be general throughout the state
and growing.

To spark up a simple meal, call

TPT OEUIE


Fishing Dope for Creech

A couple of weeks ago, Charles
Creech up there in Andalusia, Ala.,
wrote us asking for some dope on
fishing around here, saying that he
couldn't trust his brother Gus, so
we're" doing what we can for him.
The king mackerel are striking
fairly well in the Gulf, and we've
heard of quite a few choice redfish
being .caught off the city dock as
well as in the bay. Speckled
trout are coming in in small num-
bers, and it is expected that with
the first cold. spell they will .be
here in droves.
A couple of the oldtimers inform
us (we claim nothing. in the. way
of being an authority on our salt
water fishing) that the next two or
three, weeks will be the best of the
fail fishing, season, barring a hurri-
cane or sudden freezing weather.
At, the moment, Charles, the wea-
ther is supersquendacious, and our
long-range weather prognosticator
insists that the present spell will
remain with us for some time.
As to fresh water fishing, we un-
derstand that the bass are hitting
good up on the Dead Lakes, and
we have seen several, nice strings
of bream and shellcrackers brought
in from Lake Wimico and its tribu-
taries, as well as from the Brothers
and points on the Apalachicola
River. Personally, it has been quite
some time since we have wet a


hook.
We are told that the fall run of
those big mackrel should be along
shortly and that Spanish mackerel
are being caught in fairly large
numbers the past week.
Ha'\en't heard of any ling being
taken lately, but a small tarpon or
two has been' brought in.
Something to look forward to is
the fact that 150,000 fingerling
bream have been dumped into the
Dead Lakes, and the Apalachicola
and Chipola Rivers by the state
fish hatchery at Wewahitchka, and
now if we can get some water in
the Dead Lakes perhaps we can
catch a few fish next year.

CAjRD OF THANKS
'May we. express to our neighbors,
friends and the ho spital staff our
most sincere' thanks for all the
kindnesses extended us during the
recent illness and death of our bro-
ther-in-law and uncle, Joe Stebel.
Your thoughtfulness will always be
remembered.
Mrs. Luella Stebel and baby.

APPRECIATION
To our many friends, we express
our sincere gratitude for the cards,
flowers and tempting dishes. Last,
but not least, your visits that done
much to brighten our stay in the
hospital. Especially do we thank
the doctors and the hospital staff.
Della' Wood Spotts.

In stock car races words and claims
mean nothing. You can see the make
of car you drive compete with the
make of car your neighbor drives. Only the
results count. When you look at the record
you know which car is best.
This year to date, Hudsons, just like those
you can buy from us, have won 35 out of 39
stock car races, an all-time record unequalled
by any other car on earth.
And how does this help you buy a family
car? Well, for example ...
It. proves that Hudson's exclusive ,"step-
down" design-with America's lowest center
of gravity-gives .you hug,-the-road stability,
sureness of handling and safety unequalled
by any other car.


It proves that Hudson's famous high-com -
pression engines deliver the terrific kind of-
power you need to get out of tight spots and
command the road in any situation.

It proves that Hudson's Monobilt body-and-
frame* is the most rugged and by far the
safest construction on the road today.

All these qualities are yours in a Hudson-
for your pleasure, your pride and your. pro-
tection. And finally, you don't have to, see
a stock car race to see-Hudson's sleek, stream-
lined beauty.

Drop in and drive a Hudson, or telephope.us
apd. we'll pick you up at your door. You've
a thrill coming.
