ETAOIN SHRDLU
by WES4LEY R. RAMSEY

And so we have Health Clin-
ics.
We suppose you now see what
can happen by failing to vote..
Our neighbor to the North, We-
wahitchka turned out en masse
to cast their ballot and their
vote carried the issue.
Irregardless of which way the
vote went, the' people of Port
St. Joe should be ashamed of
their voting record. Little We-
wahitchka, which has only about
one third the voters that Port
St. Joe has registered and Wewa-
hitchka out-voted us two to one.
That is not a fact to be proud of.

Qh me, we have been to an-
other barbecue. The County
Commissioners had some big
members from the State Road
Board down to Wewahitchka
Tuesday afternoon to try to find
out what has happened to Gulf
County's secondary road funds.
Of course, this called for a bar-
becue.
We got there just in time to
finish up what was left.
Commissioners George Cooper
and Parker Hart assured me
that the Commissioners them-
selves had paid for the feed and
not the County. But that sounds
suspicious who would credit
them with 32 chickens and the
trimmings?

TALLAiHASSEE The Florida
Highway Patrol this week served
notice that it will put all available
personnel on the highways for the
long Labor Day week end in an
effort to duplicate the life-saving
results realized on July 4 when 66
per cent fewer people wer_ k-!kod
in vehicle crashes than dur'.ig the
same holiday the year befo,'s.
Records show that eight persons
died in vehicle wrecks last Labor
Day, Comdr. H. N. Kirkman said.
but predicted that with tha coor-
dinated efforts of all law enfarce-
mert agencies and the "haa'p of
pedestrians ana motorists", Florida
ought to be able to reduce tb:,lt
number this coming Labor Day.
I He cited the Patrol's July 4 ac-
complishment, as an example, only
four persons died during that
lengthy holiday period, compared
t with 12 the year before, a 66 per
cent reduction.
"If we can do the same on the
Labor Diy holiday," declared Kirk-

man, "only three people, or maybe
two, will die in automobile wrecks.
We hope and pray that the reduc-
tion will follow the July 4 trend, at
any rate," Kirkman declared.
In an all out effort to save lives,
and keep the 195'5 total running as
far behind record-breaking 1954 as
possible, Administrative Assistant,
Capt. Tobe A. Bass said that all
safety education men have been
instructed to contact press, TV and
radio in an effort to "get all the
advance notice possible that we
want people to drive safely to save
lives."
The Labor Day week end will
start 6 p.m. Friday before and last
through Monday midnight.
"It will be the last summertime
fl'ng that people will have to crowd
the beaches and their favorite fish-
ing and recreational haunts," said
Kirkman, "and the flow of traffic
will be somewhat terrific, to say
the least."
State Troopers will be on the
highways around the clock, and

"Twenty-four years ago in Moscow he said:
'War to the hilt between Communism and
Capitalism is inevitable. Today, of course, we
are not strong enough to attack.. Our time will
come in 20 or 30 years. To win we shall need
the element of surprise. The bourgeoisie (that's
you and me) will have to be put to sleep. So
we shall begin by launching the most spectacu-
lar peace movement on record. There will be
electrifying overtures and unheard of concess-
ions. The Capitalist countries, stupid and deca-
dent, will rejoice to cooperate in their own des-
truction. They will leap at another chance to
be friends. As soon as their guard is down we
shall smash them with our clenched fists.'
Endquote.
"The Dmitry Z. Manuilsky who spoke those
words before the Lenin School of Political War-

sky who subsequently became the Chairman
of the Political and Security Committee of the
United Nations.
