To Clean Disposal Plant
'The City is asking for bids to
clean out .the sewage disposal plant
so that contractors may ascertain
a price for rehabilitation of the
plant
This'job is being rushed as It is
in bad need of being done. The
specifications call for the cleaning
of all sludge, obstructions and waste
matter in the entire plant and pro-
vides for the safe disposal of city
sewage while the operation is un-
der way.
Bids on this project are to be
received on February 25 with work
to start within 10 days from that
date and completed in 30 working
days.
Fencing of Parks
A second bid was asked for the
fencing of an area of the city park
and fencing the park in the colored
area of town and laying clay on a
portion of each park.
This contract will be let on
March 1.
Cemetery Paving
A third bid was asked for-paving
of the streets in the Holly Hill
Cemetery.
There are a total of seven streets
to be paved each one-eighth mile
long.
Contracts, for the project will be
let on March 1.
Emergency Ordinance
An emergency ordinance was
read before the Commission for' the
first time to prohibit the placing of
more than one building for the pur-
pose of living quarters on one lot.
Several occasions recently have
prompted the formation of the or-
dinance. In several areas about the
city, more than one 'dwelling has
been built on one lot. The City is
seeking to halt this practice until
such time as the new building and
zoning codes, now under formation,
can be completed and put into op-
eration.
This emergency ordinance is *o

SOUNDS LIKE "NO"
Chou En-lai, the so-called "Premier" of the
bandit group administering the ;blessings of
Communism among the 600 million mainland
Chinese, appears to have made up his mind that
President Eisenhower's request for broad au-
thority to defend Formosa, and 'the endorse-
ment of that request by Congress, is a bluff.
In replying, via the Peiping radio, to Dag
Hammarskjold's invitation to join, the discus-
sion of a Formosan cease-fire in the UN Secur-
ity Council, Chou outdid in arrogance all pre-
vious performances.
Red China must be given the Security
Council seat of the Chinese Nationalists, he. said,
and the US must answer for its "acts of aggres-
sion" and "direct violation of the fundamental
principles of the United Nations Charter".
He reiterated that the Formosan crisis had
been brought about by "United States occupa-
tion of Formosa and intervention in China's in-
ternal affairs". He could only agree to send a
representative, he said, "when the representa-
tives of Chiang Kai-shek's clique have been driv-
en out from the Security Council and the repre-
sentatives of the People's Republic of China at-
tends in the name &'fChina".
Chou's blast followed on the heels-of the
press conference .in which President Eisenhower
clamped down on detailed questions on such
points as whether we 'would defend the islands
of Quemoy and Matsu and whether orders to


the Seventh Fleet permitted "hot pursuit" of
Red attackers. In answering a more general
question, the President said: "The purpose is
to make certain that no conflict occurs through
mistaken calculations on the other side as to our
concern about Formosa and our determination
to defend it. We have been as exact as it seems
possible to be, and we have certainly tried to
avoid being truculent. The purpose is honestly
and hopefully to prevent war."
Also a matter of hours before Chou En-lai's
searing reply to the UN invitation, reports from
London indicated that Red China would accept
a cease-fire in return for the Tachen Islands, Que-
moy and Matsu providing it was informal, an
unwritten "gentlemen's agreement". The fact
that India's Prime Minister Nehru, who is in
London for the British Commonwealth confer-
ence, has been in contact with Red Chinese dip-
ltmats, and: the report that he would like to set
up a "Geneva-type" conference to 'settle the For-
mosa crisis, suggests that this may be what Chou
is playing for.
But if, as it appears, 'the-intermediaries are
depending on appeasement of Red China, it
would be well for Americans to remember Sen-
ator William F. Knowland's definition of the
'term ". surrender on the installment plan."

PLENTY OFPROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT
It is good to learn from the annual report
of the'National Safety Council that fatal traffic
accidents in 1954'were down five percent from
the previous year, that total accidental deaths
were four percent lower, and the death-rate of
56.5 per 100,000 population the lowest on record.
But, 'encouraging as the percentages are,
there is little reason to congratulate ourselves on
the fact that only 36,300 lost their lives on our
highways, and:only a& million and a quarter more
were injured in traffic, but managed to live. The'
9o1;000: people' killed in accidents of all types
would populate a city !,larger than Springfield,
Ill., Harrisburg, Pa., Saginaw, Mich., Galveston,
Texas, Schenectady, N. Y., or Sioux City, Ia.;
while the 9;200,000 who were injured would fill.
New York City, Albany, Buffalo and Rochester.
Most shocking of all, perhaps, is the thought
that most of these victims had seen or heard acci-
dent warnings most every day of their last sev-
eral years.

that Lurianne's sprink-

things: it improves the
flavor of coffee and

As you probably know, Piggly Wiggly was the origina-
tor of the self-service food store. This savings in selling
force enabled Piggly Wiggly stores to pass on a tre-
mendous savings in labor on to the customer in savings
on their food bill. What many people DO NOT know
is that all Piggly Wiggly stores are privately owned by
local businessmen. This makes the store a community
project and assures a managerial force with the com-
munity and its inhabitants at heart. We here at Piggly
Wiggly realize that a situation as this must exist to as-
sure you, the shopper, a low, fair price for merchandise

FUNERAL ORATION A rum-
or died this week in Washington.
We were there when it drew its
last breath. Today, we intend to
help bury it. This is a sort of "Mark
Antony"-this is the last word (we
hope) that we will have to say
about it. George 'Smathers will (re-
peat will) run again. The rumor
has persisted for more than a year
that he would not. Most of that
time we listened with a sceptical
ear and commented that he was
bound to run. We said that he
didn't start the story and he had


0 worked too hard for the job, just tary of the 'Senate's private dining


to give It up. But, others here knew
that he really meant it. As time
went on, we talked to several of his
close friends--people he had pour-
ed his heart out to-people he had
told that he was getting out. The
reasons weren't too clear. One guess
had his poor health as the reason.
And George isn't well. Another put
the blame on his wife-saying she
didn't like living in Washington-
some truth in that. apparently. Oth-
ers said he had an important, high
salaried job lined up-and it seems
that there had been some sort of
offers. But, now, those things are
behind him-they are being buried.
This past week he held a press
luncheon-the first we have ever
heard of him putting on. All of the
newsmen who cover Florida were
present. It was held in the Secre-


in the Grand K"1uI!

When Napoleon called for refreshment, he meant hot chocolate, his
favorite brew. And the little general liked it very hot, very smooth,
medium sweet, and teasingly spiced with a stick of cinnamon candy!
Inspired by Napoleon, the whole of Europe took to hot chocolate in
the 18th century, and the chocolate pot was the symbol of gracious
entertaining straight down to the turn of the 20th century.
Steaming cups of hot chocolate are still a gracious and luscious
refreshment for young and old. And there's no trick nowadays to pre-
paring a chocolate cup suitable for the great Napc!'-n himself-just
right for mid-morning, afternoon, or evening party iiocolate dri ::,
just as it comes f;-cm dairy delivery or the corner s!c i?, is ready to be
he:tc'J at a mormcnt notice. It's smooth, chocolate, full-flavored.
For the Napolcon touc!h-a wonderfully delicious and unusual flavor
-serve a small dish of vari-flavored candy sticks with the cups of
c: ::cclate, so that each guest may add his favorite flavor to the cup.

What do we


mean -"Catholic"
For many huLndred
years after Christ's
resurrection there
was only one church
that taught Christian-
ity. It was known as
the Holy Catholic
Church. In fact, the
word "Catholic"
means universal. The
Episcol -1 C-;arch is
one of the great branches. "f- -he One Holy
Catholic and ApostoI.' enurcKi
Thej f name of our church is the Protestant
-Episcopal Church. It is protestant in that it did
away with certain abuses which developed in the
church during the middle ages, and to this day
it protests the error of what it considers to be
unwarranted and unscriptural additions to the
ancient faith and subtractions from it.
Yet, it remains Catholic. As the Book of
Common Prayer says "because it is universal,
holding earnestly to the faith for all time, in
all countries and for all people, and is sent to
preach the gospel to the whole world."
The Episcopal Church is not "just another
denomination." It is a democratic and consti-
tutional Catholic Communion a true part of
the historic Catholic Church. More than
45,000,000 Anglicans the world over join in
worshipping, each in his own language, accord-
ing to the Book of Common Prayer.
The Episcopal Church, through its Catholic
teaching and tradition, may provide for you
the sturdy faith you've been seeking. Join us
in church today.

Catholic Position. Send for your free

room in the ,Capitol. Before we had
picked up our forks to eat, Rad
Mobley, of the Miami Herald, dean
of the Florida newsmen here, and
one of Washington's most capable
writers, asked the blunt question,
"Are you going to run?" The answer
was the same which he has given
for weeks-a vague side-step- But,
the tip-off to all 'present was the
announcement that this was the
first of several regular weekly "get
together" news conferences. It
started all of us to digging.
First, to one of the men who is
closest to the Senator. He said,
"Confidentially ." 'We said "no,
thank's, no confidential neys-we
want something we can print." But
that was a hint-and after that it
was no trouble. Before the day was
over we "had talked to a long list
of people-some he had spoken to
about it. 'By the time this is read,
the (Senator probably has made a
public statement about it. But, even
if he hasn't-one thing is 'sure-he'll
run in 1956. And this is a good thing
for Florida. We were not numbered
among his boosters last time-we
are now. As a newsman we won't

Francis W. Taylor, Wells will at- I
tend the 178th National Training
School for Scout Executives begin-
ning February 22. The school is lo-
cated on the Schiff Reservation at
Mandham New Jersey.
Mr. Wells first entered Scouting
in this Council in 1939 as a Boy
Scout in Troop 1 of Ferry Pass,
where he attained the rank of Ea-
gle Camp Director of Camp Big Heart
in 1949, 1950 and 1952. He became
Scoutmaster of Troop 16 in 1952.
A graduate of Pensacola High
School in 1943, Wells served with
the 87th Infantry Division in Ger-
many during World War II, attain-
ing the ran kof 'Sergeant. He re-
ceied a Batchelor of Architecture
Degree and a Batchelor of Fine Art
Degree from the University of
Florida in Gainesville.
Scout Executie Joe L. Ballenger
indicated the employment of Wells
as an additional Executive will meet
a need that has existed for some
time due to the growth and expan-
sion of the iScouting Program dur-
dng the past year in the White Sands
District. He -concluded, "This is
another benefit of the successful
drive of The Greater Pensacola
Community Chest."
