Executive Secretary Sylvia Caro-

Ina Steele Wednesday noon at the
A. & B. Lobster House. and heard
Mrs. Carothers present a pro-
gram of study and actions for the
counties Of Florida.
Mrs. Carothefs said that the
people of Florida believe that
children and young people have
a right to expect opportunities
which will equip them for useful
citizenship, but they also know
that it requires the combined eff
forts of competent and earnest
men, women and youth, to make
this right a reality.
The State Legislature passed a
law in l947 creating the Florida
Children's Commission with its
81 companion County Children's
Committees. It YIELDS together
officials and laymen from every
corner of the state into a mighty
force to meet this challenge. 1t
provides that these men and
women work together in a CO.
ordinated plan of action TO de-
sign a program which will raise
the standards of youth and de.
crease the delinquencies.

ID ECENrLy, in my opinion, there has been too
IL much talk about the Common Man. 1t has
been dnned into us that this is the Century of the

Thus we are in danger of developing cult of the

But there is at least hopeful sign: have never
been able to find out who this Common Man is In
fact, most Americans and especially women will get
