according TO r. Finley Dunlap,
Hinton lawyer and banker and
chairman OF the Democratic
State Executive Committee.
In a recent address Mt Hunt

Dunlap, in praising "the loyalty

to be faithful public servants"
He said in part:
The press brings our lives
into close touch with the whole
world The accuracy OF the
information given, the energy
and ability expended, the handl-
caps overcome and the courage
IL requires in the publication OF
our papers is generally little I'M
derstood and often less appreci-
ated. The position in the mind
OF the public OF the rural paper
more directly reflects the pub
lie estimation OF the personal
character and integrity of Its
editor and its columns are con-

about our government in a fair

that as long as I am loyal to
the state and Its interests, and
not controlled by partisanship,
that their help will be freely
given Through them, the good
name which is now DETAINED
throughout the nation and In
part unjastly, can be restored;
the burdens Of the government
can be equally distributed. and
West Virginia can soon take hsr
rightful place among the states
Of the union"

Italy or Switzerland, not in any part
Of Europe or here in your own Flor
Ida, have seen scenes or rarer beauty

Many who have become interested
in the National Autopleasure and

success that has come to another
Florida born organization, the Ask Mr..
Foster Travel Bureau, which was
established before the automobile came
into such prominence.
The Ask Mr.. Foster Bureau had its
inception in st. Augustine, in q much
smaller way than the Autopleasure
and Service club has started in Pen
sacola. 1t now has a following OF
more than a million people, and those
who have investigated the plans of

large number, 1t being a national or

Mr.. Frater is no stranger to the peo-
pie of Pensacola or Escambia county.
A citizen of Pensacola practically his
whole life time, he has gained and
holds the esteem of all for his fair
ness, honesty and straight forward
ness. He has been long identified in
the lumber business, and in other
lines. He has raised family and
owns his home in the city. His ex-
perience has duly and capably quail
fled him for the position he seeks,
since his knowledge OF bookkeeping
will come in quite useful in his seeing
that administratorships are properly
conducted, for the office takes the
mind and experience of an accountant
to properly conduct 1t. Mr.. Frater
meets 5the argument that the office
should be filled by a lawyer with the
statement that, while he is not law
yer. he has read great deal of law,
making a close study of that line in
the past.
