We're getting terrible awful
about this taking off and going:
fishing. Took off and went with
Woodrow Henderson, the City
Clerk Saturday. Woodrow is sup-
posed to be a good fisherman,
but he can't quit cutting the
fool long enough to fish. He had
a crow call and a hawk call in
his tackle box and he sat and
called up crows and hawks the
whole time we were out. He only
caught three fish. We caught
two, but we threw back the ones
that were so small you couldn't
string 'em.
On top of the two fish kept, a,
turtle and an eel also got on the
line. The eel wriggled off at the
boat's edge .and the turtle was
properly dispatched.

resulted from more than, 20,000
wild fires that burned over 4,300,000
acres of.Florida's unprotected land.
Only 7,619 wild fires occurred on
protected woodlands and burned
only 217,964 acres. Judging from
the statistics, fire protection saved
about 8,000,000 acres from fire. Fire
burned only 1.44% of the acreage
under protection. But a staggering
58% of Florida's unprotected wood-
lands felt the scourge of fire dur-
ing the past year.
Two-thirds of Florida's wood-
lands are, under protection. But
95% of the acreage burned was on
unprotected woodlands.
The exclusion of fire from Flor-
ida's protected woodlands has made
possible a dramatic change. Mil-
lions of seedlings, that would have
been killed by uncontrolled fi,'e,
a"e restocking forest acreage. Fire
protection has made the planting of
trees a sound investment, and the
management of forest lands for
sustained yield economically feas
ible.
Where did all the fires come
from? No other state in the Union
had anything close to the 28,000
total in Florida. Another southern
s;ate. Mississippi, came close to
20,000; Georgia had eleven thou-
E.and: but, of all the forty-eight
states. Florida ranked highest in
number of wild' fires.
The big problem in Florida is
deliberate fire-setting. Many states
trace wild fire troubles to lightn-
ing, carelessness,' campers, smok-
ers, hunters, or trash fires. But in
Florida two-thirds of the wild fires
on protected woodlands are "in-
cendiary"-set for personal gain,

Diseases of the heart and circus

"If a combined grouping is made
of all cardiovascular-renal disease,

Florida deaths in 1953.
"Among the infectious diseases
the respiratory ailments of influ-

generally transmitted in the same
manner as tuberculosis, these di-
seases are acute rather than chron-

Reader Challenges Editor
To Public Boxing Match
DELAVAN, Wis.-The town of
Delavan (population 3,500) is watch-
ing -with :interest :the' feud devel-
oping between S. Robert Andersen,
editor of the Delavan Enterprise,
and H. C, Knilans, one of Mr. An-
dersen's readers.
Reader Knilans, irritated by edi-
torials in the Enterprise. and par-
ticularly by Andersen's offer to buy
him a 'ticket to Russia, challenged
the editor to a boxing match. When
Andersen accepted, the town's in-
terest soared.
Then, in a recent issue, Ander-
sen wrote "as further proof of the
editor's good faith and to satisfy
the frustrated political ambitions of
Mr. Knilans, I offer him the right
'to write a newspaper column each
week for eight weeks as a series of
political articles. The editor will
take equal space on the same sub-'
iect."
jThe editor's acceptance of tlq
fight challenge included the condi-
tions:
That state approval be given to
the fight.
That the marquis of Queensberry
rules be followed.
That Khilans pay all expenses in-
volved.
That the match be held at public
exhibition with an advance ticket
sale.
That the proceeds from the match
be donated to the junior chamber of
commerce to be used at their dis-
cretion in a civic betterment proj-
ect.

MR. LODGE INVOKES
MONROE DOCTRINE
U. S. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge's
abandonment of the niceties of diplomatic lan-
guage in his warning to Russia gave dramatic
emphasis to our determination to back up a
similar warning given Europe by President Mon-
roe over a century ago. Mr. Lodge's statement
in the United Nations Security Council to So-
viet Delegate Semyon Tsarapkin possibly set
an all-time record for bluritness in high-level
diplomacy:
"I say to you, representative of the Soviet
Union: Stay out of this hemisphere, and don't
try to start your plans and conspiracies over
bere."
It was on Dec. 2, 1823, that President James
Monroe set the precedent upon which Ambas-
sador Lodge based his position. At that time
it had been proposed in Europe to overthrow
new democratic governments erected from for-
mer colonies of Spain. The Holy Alliance of
Austria, Russia, and Prussia, supported by
France, undertook "to put an end to the system
of representative government."
SAfter consulting with his cabinet, President
Monroe announced "as a principle in which the
rights' and interests of the United States are
involved, that the American continents, by the
free and independent conditions which they have
assumed and maintain, are henceforth not to be
considered as subjects for future colonization by
any European powers." If any European power
tried to interfere with American governments,
the President added, the United States would
consider it an unfriendly act, "dangerous to our
,peace, and safety." .. ,

to'be precisely the sort the Monroe Doctrine was
drafted to oppose. The Communist Party, an
instrument of the Soviet Union, has de facto
if not official control of the Central American
state. While President Arbenz and his .top
officials are not Communists, he has courted the
party's support, appointed its members to im-
portant sub-cabinet posts, taken it into his gov-
ernment's coalition, and allowed it to organize
such government programs as the land reform
project. Exceedingly hostile to the United
States, the Guatemalan government has recently
imposed rigid press censorship and has posed
a threat to its neighbors with arms imports from
Czechoslovakia. Our cuase for concern is real
enough.
Just as the Soviet Union feels its interest
in the Balkan nations is justified by its security
considerations, so do we justify our concern for
the autonomy of Central and South American
states. Ambassador Lodge's statement leaves
no doubt as to where we stand.
-Florida Times-Union

TIME TO REPEAT
The month of July marks the 210th anniver-
sary of the passing of one of America's greatest
and least-remembered heroes John Peter Zen-
ger. In 1734, as the "independent, truculent"
editor of the New York Weekly Journal he was
thrown into jail, charged with criminal libel for
airing the abuse of power by the British governor
of New York It was his ultimate court victory
in 1735, that established the foundation for free-
dom of the press in the New World. And Zen-
ger's vindication before an hostile court resulted
from the insistence of his counsel on the right o.
the jury to inquire into the truth or falsity cf
the published statements.
As an editor, we are grateful to Publisher
John W. McPherrin of The American Magazine
for the timely reminder of our debt to Zenger
in the current (July) editorial .. "Free to
be RESPONSIBLE". It was this latter point --
that the press must be responsible as well as
free that inspired the first editorial in the first'
issue of the Colonies' first magazine. In 1741,
three years before John Peter Zenger's'death,
and 35 yeais before the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, the first ditor of The American Maga-
zine wrote.
"While we are zealously endeavoring to pro-
mote the Liberty, we shall as carefully avoid
contributing to the Licentiousness of the press.
We have here particularly in view Defamatory
Libelling as it comprehends the ideas of False-
,i,'d and Scandal combined together.

"What's for lunch, Mom?"
That's a familiar query this sea-
scn when outdoor activities sharpen
appetites. A good way to make sure
-unclies at your house reach expec-
tations is to keep a supply of lunch-
'on-building foods on the kitchen
-hel. -Give top priority to con-
densed soups, for they are star per-
rormers in summer meals. They are
quickly and easily prepared. They
provide variety. And they give cool
sandwich-salad meals a warm heart.
Too. soups are well-liked and nour-
ishing.
A good luncheon plan with soup
is:

tizing and nutritious meals. With
cream soup have a meat or seafood
salad and fruit for dessert. A vege-
table soup tastes good with egg
salad and pie or cake. With a meat

sandwich; then pudding for dessert.
The beverage could bd milk, or on
a. particularly sweltering day-iced
tea or lemonade.

tified the Florida Highway Patrol
this week that some detours will
have to be made.
The projects run from one to ten
months construction time, SRD
said, and include major and mi-
nor roads all over the state.
U. S. Highway 1, along the East
Coast, has five projects now in
progress, including several bridge
projects which necessitate only
short detours around the work.
Longest project is 10 miles in Na;-
sau, widening and rebuilding work.
U.S. Highway 90 from Jackson-
ville to the West Coast, via Pen
sacola, is temporarily out in five
places. Longest project is a six-
mile stretch near Milton. Most of
the projects require only short de-
tours; or proceed with caution
driving.
Travelers would do well to con-
tact their State Patrol for infor-
mation about detours, the SRD
said.

Time was, in the American era

though they were much more,
too), when the great power of
wealth made men want to live
like princesses and kings. And, so
they built castles, making of them
refinements of the great ancient

on Guam. -
After he was discharged Flees
returned to Wisconsin to work in a
-mill. After nine months of this, he
began to yearn for the land. So he-
bought 80 acres of land and married -
his grade school sweetheart.
He attended the GI farm train-
ing school where he sharpened his
knowledge of practical agriculture
and began to learn about the value
of retaining the water on the slopes
and how to keep his pastures green.
One Eye Injured


Then in September, 1950, while
he was filling a silo on the farm, a
chain snapped. One end hi' him in
the right eye and destroyed its
sight.
. It was then that 125 youths in
Flees' farm training school de-
cided to help. So did his neighbors.
First of all he needed the build-
ings to operate his farm-a house.
barn, milkhouse, silo. He needed
more land for cultivation, and lime/
and fertilizer for his soil. The farm
home administration couldn't give
him a big enough loan to accom-
plish all that.
Then Dr. B. J. Przedpelski, as-
sociate extension agent of Mara-
thon and Wood counties, stepped in
to give a hand. He enlisted the aid
of the churches, federal farm agen-
cies, women's clubs, civic clubs and
corporations.
A Lifetime's Work
The labor force of Flees' friends
and neighbors numbered over 200.
There were about 25 technical ex-
perts to direct the operation and,
while helping Flees, showed other
farmers good practices in Wisconsin
agriculture.
This is what the volunteers have
accomplished:
Built a house, barn, milkhouse
and silo.
Built roads.
Bulldozed 25 acres of woods.
Planted trees on about five acres
of land unsuitable for farming.
Cleared stones from about 10
acres.
Prepared about 25 acres for
alfalfa.
Renovated about 10 acres of worn
pasture.
Dug a pond for watering livestock.
All of it was accomplished with
donated machines, labor and mater-
ials. To build a farm like thisl one
would have taken Flees most of a
lifetime.
