County

Radio Cars
Potrolmen To Hove
Three Way Rodio
Equipped Vehicles

Jackson County will have a
radio-c5ntrolled highway patrol
by spring as the result of a de-
cision by members of the Board
of Supervisors at their meeting
Tuesday.
The board voted to purchase
two l947 automobiles to be equip
ped with three-way radios con-
nected to the Gulfport station of
the Mississippi Highway Patrol
and to furnish a similar set for
use in the official a of the
sheriff.
Tentative plans were also Laid
for purchasing a set TO be install
ed in the sheriff's office since
the patrolmen work under him
as CHEW law enforcement officers
of the county,
Under the plan, the patrolmen
would be able to converse with
each other at any time. with the
sheriff. and with the station at
Gulfport. The patrolmen would
therefore be able TO receive in
%structions and report to the sher-
iff and to summon aid in the
case of emergencies. it was point
ed out.
Cars Conform
The board voted TO purchase
automobiles similar to those in
use by the state highway patrol
and to label them JACKSON
COUNTY HIGHWAY PATROL"
Supervisor A. p. Moran. who
made the motion TO purchase the
vehicles and radios, pointed out
ehat the official markings of
the vehicles would create respect
for the law.
Under present conditions, esun-
~ highway pat olmen furnish
their own vehicles.
AT the present time, Eugene
Rodrigues is the patrolman for
West Jackson County and a va
cancy exists in East Jackson
County where a number of appli-
cations are under consideration.
A much more complete patrol
of the county can be accomplish
ed in this way, it was pointed
out, since the highway patrol
man on each side Of the Pasca-
goula river may make daily runs
into the northern sections Of the
county.

Work TO Begin

Residents of the V~ancleave
School District overwhelmingly
approved the issuance of an adj
ditional $4,000 in bonds for their
new school last weekend when
455 persons signed a petition to
that effect.
A. F. Megehee announced this
week that the contract had been
signed and that construction on
the building would begin as soon
as material could be moved to the
site. The contract calls for the
work to begin within 80 days and
to continue for not more than six
months.
The brick and concrete build
ing will be erected on the site
purchased on State Highway SO,

But really, Brother Stearns,
must you call our football field
a COW pasture - before the
game? We admit it was an un-
qualified mess, and we wouldn't
mind If you called it the dis
NAL swamp afterwards. We've
seen a few games in your town,
though, and we can't see where
your gridiron is any better than
ours. We don't know how
swampy it would have been last
Friday, since Harlo weather re-
ports are not available to us,
but we think it would have
been just as dismal for the
Harlo fans as the afternoon
wore on.
Frankly, we didn't think much
OF the idea of playing in Bill
lings. We'd rather have played
In your town so that all your
fans would have had a chance
to be there. A contest on that
neutral field simply meant that
even more fans could not have
seen the game.
We are reliably informed that
if it hadn't been for Mike Ku-
chsra, we might very we'll have
failed to get the new Flood
Control office in Hardin. It
seems that the office might
have gone to Billings, had space
besn available there. When
Mike heard there was a chance
OF getting a new payroll in
town, he offered to build an Of
flee himself, if necessary. Then,
when the government called for
bids, Mike lost out-but, being a
good sport and good guy, he
says he doesn't mind. Anything

Austria, Hungary and Czecho-
slovakia as Jugoslavia, due to
the unavailable river fleet, was
compelled to use that rolling
stock for her own inland trans
portation. Second, the Hungari-
an and Czechoslovak foundries,
being cut from the normal sup
plies of iron ore from Jugosla-
via, were unable to work in
full capacity. In peace time
these two countries imported
about 500 900 tons of iron ore
yearly from Jugoslavia.
"This import was effected by
the Danubian fleet. Now it is
impossible to transport this iron
ore by train. In addition to the
normal increase of expenditure
of rail transportation because of
destroying bridges, the railways
are forced to make detours
greatly increasing the trans
portation cost so that foundries
have refused to accept the ore
even when we offered it free.

been if we had ships available
for transport through Hungary.
However, these ships lay idle
and, instead of three months,
the transportation of the'150,-
600 tons of coke took almost. a
year.
Because of irregular and in
sufficient deliveries of coke our
foundries were compelled to
cease operations several times
for longer or shorter periods. I
shall refrain from further
quotation since everyone can
easily conceive the damage in
flicted on the foundries them
selves, due to the consequent
stoppages of iron and engineer
ing industries in their recon-
struction work.

full and correct. Mrs. Balokovic
and | spent more than five hours
at his home in private discus
sions with him on one occasion.
We now know what a great man
he is and how fortunate Jugo-
slavia is to have had such a lead
er in wartime and to have him
as its leader in peace"
American charges of persecu-
ton of churchmen were held to
be completely unture.
Churches are open and
crowded." Mr.. Balokovic said.
Religious practice is free. AS
a matter of fact, the Govern
ment is not only helping to re-
build churches and religious
shrines but it intends to help
those orders which cannot main
tain themselves economically if
practice shows that not enough
land has been left to them"
He did point out, however,
that the Jugoslav Government
was determined to keep the
church and the state separate,
as in the United States. Church
men, he said, were prosecuted
only in connection with collabo-
ration with the enemy, the same
as any other citizens.
There cannot be a different
law for clergymen and others,
All are equal before the law in
Jugoslavia today" he said.
One idol of the Jugoslavia
people today is the late Franklin
Delano Roosevelt. Whenever his
name is mentioned to a Jugo-
slav audience, Mr.. Balokovic
said, the response chanted is
"Glory Be to His Memory" Mrs.
Balokovic, a native American,
who made the trip with Mr.. Ba-
lokovic, said that the two
months in Jugoslavia were the
happiest in her life.

~ Our coal and coke trans
portation from Czechoslovakia
and Poland, in the amount of
100000 tons, more than half Of
it to UNRRA's account, passed
through Hungary and upper Ju-
goslavia by train instead of
barge, causing us an excessive
expenditure of 7,786, 900 dinars
only for transport through Hun
gary, not to speak of the enor-
NOUS expense incurred during
the train transportation
through Hungary which doubled
the mentioned sum. The excess
in transport expenses, because
of the train transport of our
