'PA series is uue On May 10 Gulf County's share of the Salk vaccine for polio -arrived this week and was injected almost immediate- ly into 373 children in Port St. Joe. The vaccine arrived here Mon- day around noon and was turned over to the Health'Department by Joseph A. Mira, Chairman Gulf County Chapter, National Founda- tion for Infantile Paralysis. The vaccine 'was furnished free of charge by the foundation. 'Tuesday morning at 9:00 a.m. the innoculations were started with the first grade in the Port St. Joe Ele- mentary .school. By mid-afternoon the entire Port St. Joe area of first and second graders had been inoc- ulated. There were 416 registered in the St. Joe area to be inoculated but 4.3 of the students were absent. The second in the three shot series will be given on May 10. The third shot will follow in approximately seven months and must be paid or by the parents. The shot was painless except for a slight needle prick and the children bore up well under the ordeal. One little first grade boy fainted at the sight of the needle but as a whole' the' operation went off smoothly.' / Shots were given by Mrs. Ruth Clate, County Health Nurse. Absentee shots were finished up Wednesday. The Salk vaccine will be avail- able in the city the latter part of this week for those wishing to pur- chase shots for their children. The cost for each shot will be approxi- mately $4.50, according to Mrs. Crate.

The kind of organization at which the citizens of Port St. Joe may point with pardonable pride. The past record of our school band has not been at this level of efficiency. Mainly Ibecause of inferior instru- mental equipment, low morale among band students and citizens, and poor band organization. At the present time, many of these ill's have either been completely eradi- cated or else they are in the pro- cess of being cured. Much new equipment has been added, morale is at a high level, and the citizens of our community are up in arms and ready to support their band to the limit. Let's all join in and create one of the finer bandsof our part of the state.

ABOUT THOSE "DRIVES" So you don't believe in contributing to any or part of the "drives" that are carried on each year. "There are too many of them and they only divide the money up .among themselves" you say. "The money is used in the wrong way" you say. And some of you do say just those things. Surely the advent of the polio vaccine will do away with some of this sort of talk. All of these drives use up a lot of money. Sometimes it might seem that the pessimistic person might be justified. Thousands and thou- sands of dollars are given and seemingly no headway is being made. Then all at once a scientist working to find a cure stumbles on the right thing and there you are. Notice we said "stumbles" because that is just what hap- pens. The scientist knows that the disease has an identifying germ and that the germ causes the sickness. But what will kill the germ and better yet keep -the germ from forming in a body. We'll use as a facsimile, the paper mill.

However, the prosperity and wel- fare of all of us depends on the passage of wise and intelligent legislation designed to protect our Interest, and right now one of the most Important issues concerned with the welfare of Florida is com- ing up for Congressional considera- tion. One of Florida's foremost indus- we would still be in the dark. And if the pro. cess of making paper from wood had never been invented just how would you go about it? It's the same thing. You know what you want, but you don't know what will do the job that you want done. There are many items in this world to explore before the right agent is found. Exploration of this kind and experiments of this kind take money, much of which is just wasted in that the experiments tried simply do not work still the search must go on. The "drives" serve a purpose and don't you forget it. And let the discovery of the polio vaccine be heartening and the foreteller of finer things to come in the combatting of other di- seases such as tuberculosis, cancer, muscular dystrophy and other diseases that cripple and maim our people.

The Governor wagged his head in the negative to this plan. What we want to know is, what is the use to change things if the new system will have no more authority and carry out the same job now being carried out by the present board? Wdn't it cost a lot of money to change over something like this? We believe it would. If so, why change over and cost the taxpayers that money that could be used better somewhere else and have only the same old system after the chafinge- up is done? Like I say, "We don't get it." But we would sure like to know the low down on it. tries is the production of sugar in the Everglades. Thousands of peo- ple depend on this industry for their livelihood. Tax revenue to the state and nation from its successful op- ration relieve the average citizen of a lot of money he would be call- ed on to pay if this great industry were not in existence. A few months ago I told you albou't some of the problems fac- ing Florida's sugar industry. Now, thanks to Congressman Paul Rog- ers, Senator Holland and other con- gressional leaders bills have been introduced that, if passed, would give our Florida sugar growers and producers a chance to make ends meet. Following the war, in an effort to help Cuba, Puerto Rico and oth- er offshore sugar growing areas, our government established a very strict quota system that limited the acreage domestic growers might plant and also controls the amount of sugar that may be sold. Our Florida sugar growers and producers have adhered strictly to this quota regulation, but because we practice better farming methods and have developed more modern techniques we are able to produce more sugar from the allotted acre- age than the government estimated we could. Under the present laws this increased production cannot be sold and must be stored until the following year. In 1948 when the present Sugar Act became effective our total an- nual, sugar requirements were 7,- 200 000 tons. Now we consume a million tons more and consumption is increasing. Under the present law American store to all domestic growers their historic and just right to share with foreign countries in the growth of the U. S. sugar market. There has been Introduced in me U. S. Senate, Bill No. 1635 and in the House H. R. 5413 and H. R. 5406, all designed to amend the act and bring relief to our growers. The Florida delegation is aware of the seriousness of the present sit- uation and is working with other senators and congressmen to Insure passage of these bills. The proposed legislation will not reduce Cuba's present quota but will permit Cuba and other foreign countries to continue to enjoy a fair share of future increases in the U. S. sugar market and, at the same time, will give much needed relief to domestic sugar producers. Not only our local sugar growers but all Florida business and indus- try which benefits indirectly is vi- tally concerned and should do ev- erything possible to help insure quick action on the above mentioned bills. m J 'R ALWAYS in HotlaWer.. .......

Mr. Carey advises persons who are now disabled and who meet these requirements to get in touch with their social security office be- fore July 1, 1957, to have their earnings record frozen. The earn- ings record can be frozen for the entire period of the total disability if the person is still disabled when making application, provided he meets the work requirements men- tioned. For persons applying after June 30, 1957, the freeze can go back for no more than one year. Persons now receiving Federal old-age insurance benefits who were totally disabled for more than six months before becoming 65 and who are still disabled may also ap- ply for a disability freeze; a recom- putation under this part of the law may increase the amount of their benefit payment. It is suggested that anyone who may be affected by some phase of the disability freeze visit or call his local social security office and discuss his prob- lem in detail'.

No. 1 enemy of beginners' vegetable gardens is .crowding. SThis is due to failure to thin out the seedlings so that each re- inaining plant has sufficient room to develop properly. Failure ,to thin out 'is often due to emotional -resistance on the part of the gardener who cannot bring himself to destroy the precious seedling plants which #have brownn from the seed which nore often she) has sown. i with high-germinating s it is advisable to sow nore than you will have room .'to mature; because accidents .are always possible which will destroy some plants; and va- cancies in a row are difficult . ,to fill. Seeds that germinate slowly, such as carrots,, parsley, and parsnips, should be sown more * 'thickly than others because the seedlings are feeble, and the f rce- of many acting together -s break through the soil and g the sprouts to the surface. e late Liberty H. Bailey, n of horticultural teachers, dressed this opinion: "Thin- g is -a process of selection, 'he best are allowed to re- evident .the-chances he best are greater dener leaves one ten, rather than of three." seasonss thinning 'ual process, bh- .ant are la - e, and conti ing until they reach at least balf-size. This keeps spare plants available during the early weeks, when accidents are most likely to destroy some. At first, plants of row crops may be thinned out to, stand one inch apart; which will insure, to each, room to develop without entangling roots with a neigh- bor. As they grow, alternate plants should be removed, and so on until the optimum spac- ing is achieved. Many of the excess root and leaf plants can be used on the table. When carrots are sown thinly, thinning may be left until some are large enough to. use. It is the half-grown carrots that are most delicious, and the growth is so much more in length than in the diameter of the root that the thinning proc- ess does not disturb .the others so much. Turnips do not grow well if crowded. If the young plants are pulled up so they stand 4 inches apart in the row, in a remark- ably quick time they will be large enough to use. Beets are more easily handled than turnips when they are 'a little larger, and one should not fail to try a dish of beet tops with the tiny roots just beginning to form. It is a delicious intro- duction to the garden menu. The beets which are left in the 'rd should be spaced 2 inches ! OPENE NU [Mewxv each Pie] ,AE RESTAURANT FOR ?

With these words, and the remainder of a short prayer, a Bishop of the Epis- copal Church confers the sacrament of Confirmation-a rite which Episcopalians believe gives to its recipient God's strength for full par- privileges of membership for the responsibilities There are many misconceptions about "Con- firmation." Some people think of it as "join- ing" the church. That's not the case. Because, one who has been baptized with water in the name of the Trinity is a member of the Chris- tian family a member of the Body of Christ, which is the Church. He or she can't be "more" a member. But we do believe that Confirmation, which means "strengthening" (Scriptural authority'for which appears in Acts 8: 12-18), is a spiritual aid to those who receive it. Other than Baptism, there is no specific cere- mony that makes you a "member" of the Epis- copal Church. Confirmation, however, elevates a member to a "communicant" standing and enables him to receive the further privilege of Holy Communion. I Those of us who have received the "laying on of hands" by the Bishop feel there is special benefit in Confirmation. Wouldn't you like to ", know more about the Episcopal Church?

First, second and third place win- ners in the iSenior group will be permitted to enter the Gulf County speaking contest in May to select a member to go to the area contest.

The most important mea- sure to face the Legislature this session will, of course, be reappor- tionment, whether it be by consti- tutional amendment or constitution- al revision. Of course, we in the smaller counties will necessarily have to fight constitutional revision since it could have the effect of reducing the amount of race track funds, Minimum Foundation funds for schools, and even other revenues which our County receives. How- ever, we in the smaller counties will support amendments to the constitution when this is effected by amending each article of the constitution separately. I introduced last week a bill for the consolidation of legal services in the State of Florida providing that all legal work be under the jurisdiction of the Attorney Gen- eral's office unless justification is shown for State agencies to hire their separate attorneys.

I also introduced a proposed con- stitutional amendment to be sub- mitted to the people providing that no sales or use tax shall ever be enacted in the State of Florida in excess of 3% and that food and food products to be exempt per- petually from any such tax. I feel certain that the people of Florida will vote favorably on this amend- inent if it is passed since it will have the effect of providing that they will not be taxed in excess of 3% on any sales tax levied in the future 'by the Legislature. I intend to propose an amendment to this bill in the Committee to provide that medicine also be exempted perpetually from any sales tax. Thursday, April 14, the House Appropriations Committee, of which I am a member, voted favorably to what amounts to be an emergen- cy appropriation of $550,000.00 to provide Salk vaccine for under- privileged children. I feel certain that this will pass both houses im- mediately when it reaches the floor so that this Salk vaccine can be purchased and furnished to un- derprivileged children. Also, we voted out favorably a bill to provide approximately $2,- 400,000.00 for permanent and to- tally disabled persons. This amount will be matched by an equivalent amount of Federal matching funds to aid permanent and totally dis- abled persons.
