NEW COMMISSIONERS
Tuesday morning we witnessed the instal-
lation of two new County Commissioners, J. C.
Price from Port St. Joe and E. C. Harden, Sr.,
of Wewahitchka. The Commissioners took up
the positions of incumbents Basil E. Kenney,
Jr., and Jim S. Daniells of Wewahitchka.
The new Commissioners are taking office
at a time when they can.do the county a world
of good. With the end of 1955, the county will
be debt-free since they will pay off the last of
the courthouse bonds. A debt-free county can
make for'more progress and making for better
services to the people of the county.
One of the first acts that we would urge of
the County officers, is that they employ a
workman's compensation insurance plan. The
need for this plan has come up in the past few
days to the tune of approximately $10,000.00, in
cost to the county.
We hasten to state that it was not due to

NEW YEAR! NEW CONGRESS!
-Congress is now in session. Of-
ficially it is known as the first ses-
ssion of the 84th Congress. Its 531
members make up the most impor-


negligence on the part of past or present com-
missioners.
You will no doubt remember the incidence
of some three or four years ago when Deputy
Sherrif Mose Hill was slain in an attempted ar-
rest in Highland View. The family asked the
County for damages. The County Commission-
ers refused to pay other than funeral expenses
and expenses for immediate needs of the family
as they contended that Hill was an employee
of Sheriff Byrd E. Parker. Parker was not held
liable for damages in the case since he did not
have five employees and was thence free of the
responsibility of carrvipg workmen's compensa-
tion insurance. Perhaps it was hard-boiled of
the county to refuse any more payment but the
fact was that the budget would not stand any
such payments.
The Hill family carried the matter to the
Florida Supreme Court recently. The Court
has just sent its ruling to the County. The high
court ruled that Hill WAS an employee of the
county just as every employee under any officer
is. The court ruled that Gulf county had to pay
certain damages during the coming year to the
Hill family, which trill amount to approximately
$10,000.00.
Now, the County has to seek special per-
mission from the State of Florida to alter its
budget to include payment of this ruling. Had
the County had the compensation insurance, the
damages would be automatically taken care of.
Our county is growing by leaps and bounds.
More and more employees are needed to carry
on the work of the county. With more employ-
ees comes increased danger of this same case
repeating itself at a future date. We would urge
that the Commissioners take this into considera-
tion and take the immediate steps to see that
it doesn't happen again. We feel sure that they
will.


tant law-making body in the world.
What these men do in the next few
months will, shape the destiny of
our country-and posisbly the
world.
Ten of these men represent Flor-
ida. In addition to the overall prob-
lem of helping to decide what is
good for our country, their job will
be to protect and promote the in-
terests of their own state. These
ten men are often referred to as
the 'Florida Delegation." Most of
the time they get together and


work as a unit. In the past they
have been noted in Washington as
being one of the closest "families"
on Capitol Hill.
But, with the opening of the 84th
Congress, one member of the dele-I
nation will be a Republican. Only
time can answer how he will fit in
with the family. Certainly, he won't
be able to' work as closely in the
delegation as another Democrat
would.
Even so, everyone should be fa-

ida. As we have done at the begin- Birth Announcement
