Harris Drew of West Palm Beach, justice of the state supreme court, appointed 'by Governor War- ren to fill the unexpired term of the late Judge Roy H. Chapman, in his talk here Thursday evening of last week, which was too late to make last week's Star, said: "I can promise the people only one thing-that I will do my dead- level best to be a good judge. I cannot promise you in advance how I will decide any case, because each case must be decided upon its own merits. However, I do promise you that I will decide every case before me on the facts and the law." Drew's only opponent in the elec- tion set for October 14 is Vincent C. Giblin of Miami. Retailers Association To Study State Legislation Gulf County Committee Headed By Boyles Joins With State Organization More than 500 Florida merchants will serve on a powerful state-wide legislation and tax study commit- tee of the Florida State Retailers Association, President J. E. Saltz of St. Petersburg informs The Star. Already functioning are local, self- operating legislative action com- mittees of retailers in all 67 coun- ties and in 126 cities and towns. The Gulf county group is function- ing under the direction of Glenn R. Boyles of this city,, chairman. Other members are Wayne Buttram, J. R. Smith, Robert Bellows, J. Lamar. Miller, C. W. Long and W. Q. Roche of St. Joe, and Gadi White,; Claude Lister, L. W. Owens and C. W. Nor- ton Jr., of Wewahitchka. D. Pey- ton Long of Tallahassee is the dis- trict vice-president. "Gulf county merchants, in con- junction with the state association, will co-ooperate with ,the 1953 legis- lature in sponsoring constructive legislation," said Boyles. "Our as- sociation is vigorously supporting governmental reorganization, con- solidation of tax collection agen- cies, and greater economy in opera- tion of our state government. As retailers, we know that what is good for all of our people is good for us." Establishment of a state tax com- mission, adbquatevaudits of all state expenditures and elimination of du- plicating state functions are in- cluded in the organization program.

While a large number of exhibits undoubtedly will be entered, as in past years, it is the desire of the fair organization that all who have received the premium list will make at least one entry. There, are 240 different items listed. It is anticipated there will be an outstanding exhibit of cattle and hogs, since great improvement has been made in this line in the county during the past few years. While crops suffered some dam- age from the recent drought and hot weather, damage was not too serious, according to County Agent 'Cubie Laird, and there should be some good exhibits of farm crops. The women's division has ,been carefully planned under the direc- tion of Miss Ruth Milton, county home demonstration-agent,.-and her able assistants, afid will: include. the usual entries ,of canned fruits and meats, handicraft, and such. The Lee Amusement Company, the same outfit that played at last year's fair, will make up the mid- way and provide the chills, and thrills of rides and shows which go to make up a fair for both young and old. In the past, no provision has been made for commercial displays, but this year space will be provided for home appliance displays, automo- tive displays and the like. ___--4--__-- St. Joe Kiwanis Club To Be Represented At Convention The Port St. Joe Kiwanis Club will be represented at the 1952 con- vention of the Florida Kiwanis Dis- trict to be held October 4 to 7 at Jacksonville, according to Silas R.

Our Country y Right or Wroen IKE CAN CLEAN HOUSE FOR US (Reprinted from Wakulla County News) The Clay and Columbia county Democratic delegations put their finger on somethingthat had been bothering us for some time. For the past several years we have been increasingly ashamed that we were a Democrat. We had lost sight of the fact that there are two levels of the party-that of .our state of Florida, and the na- tional Democratic party. We have read the national platforms in recent years and wondered how we could swallow the stuff ladeled out in the name of the party. We have watched good rien from our state go to Washington and be whipped into line or kicked out of Washington, and felt ashamed. We have hoped that somehow we of the Democratic party would clean our own house and straighten out our own affairs, but apparently this is not pos- sible. And the Clay and Columbia Democratic groups are pointing out that we are not leaving the party by voting for Eisenhower, but that the national party has left us and left us little choice. It is a dirty thing to do-to get things in an unholy mess and then insist that someone else pitch in and clean up the place. But, since the General appears to be both willing and even anxious to do just this-then we are going to add our little "X" and say: "Brother, you asked for it, and here it is!" For a young fellow trying to get along, Sena- tor Richard Nixon has made considerable Ameri- can history as this is written and his chances for making still more could hardly be better. What looked like a tempest in a teapot, launched by a pinko newspaper and blown up to hurri- cane proportions by Fair Deal politicos, has changed its course, as such storms often do, and at this moment, is tearing the Stevenson com- placency to shreds. Tomorrow is the last day to register if you want to cast your vote for president November 4. Treasury Secretary John L. Snyder, in a 25- page "Report To Taxpayers," says the bureau of internal revenue is now "a rejuvenated and strong. organization. The inference is that after firing 174 employes and taking collectorships out of the political plum category, the revenues aren't going to steal your money ,any more. We hope, for our own health, the bureau is now as pure as Snyder reports. TEN YEARS AGO From the Files of The Star Hospital Project Gets Okeh Telegrams were received Satur- day by The Star from Sen. Claude Pepper and Cong. Bob Sikes stat- ing that President Roosevelt had approved the application for funds to complete the Port St. Joe WPA- sponsored 30-bed hospital.

FOR SALE v LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Dear Ed Bill-Somebody finally got on the ball and started The Star In my direction. Believe me, it really helps to know what's going on around home. You know, it's Quite a ways from Port St. Joe to Kyushu, Japan. A lot of the news I get through the mail, but since Alex is in Pensacola and my wife is in Mobile, it's very little that they know of doings in St. Joe. Anyway, there's nothing like reading it out of the home-town paper for myself. This place isn't so different from our part of the country. I'm right on the coast-a peninsula, in fact- so I feel right at -home. Also it's the southernmost island in the group, so I'm in "Rebel" territory. When you go to town, though, it's pretty hard to pass the time of day with the people. One thing for sure, we get all the latest war news. It's only 70 miles to the Korean main- land, which is much too close to suit me. Anyway, I thought I'd drop you a few lines to let. you know that The Star is getting here and that it really does-boost my morale 100 per cent. FRANK YOUNG.
