This Rock
Of Our"
BY BILL GLIB

Tomorrow is the day the Coun-
~ Commission will go out to
Meacham Airport and see the
general condition of the runways.
Since none of them are aviation
experts, and since to date, they've
completely ignored the recon-
mendations of the CAA authori-
les and other men of recognized
lbility, they would do just as
we'll to go on to the golf course
and spend the afternoon batting
little ball around.
The entire situation is disgust
ing
Are we going to have to wait
,or a crack-up to kill dozen or
so innocent people before our
politicians will follow the expert
advice offered by CAA?
Why can't the County Commits
sioners see that the population of
Monroe County is centered in
Key West? That we need the air
port here, not up on some barren
rock that will only help the sur
rounding landowners?
If any enc of you voters fail to
remember the present attitude OF
the County Commissioners when
election time rolls around. then
you deserve to go back to the old
WPA days. You can dig sewer
lines again, fill them up, dig them
again - just to receive a small
dole from the government. For il
the present conditions continue
he town can't advance-it must
| go backwards.
It's a pretty sad state of affairs
when three or four men car
ignore human safety, and public
benefits, simply by asserting theil
own personal opinions.

A prospective wedding guest
writes: I'm invited to a subur-
ban wedding at a large church
and the reception which will fol-
low at a local club. Please tell me-
what arrangements will be made
for my getting from the station
to church and from there to the
club. No mention has been made
Of anything, but I thought pos
sibly some transportation could
be taken for granted"
Unless the hour Of the depar-
ture Of a special train for the
wedding guests Is given In the
Invitation, the guests will be ex-
pected to find their own way to
the wedding.
Declining Shower Invitation
Dear Mrs. Post: I've been In
vited to shower and don't think
| should have been. hardly know
the guest of honor for whom my
invitation stipulates I should buy
something in linen. If I decline
the invitation am I still obliged
TO send a present?
Answer: You are under no obli-
CATION to send a present since
you are not an intimate friend.
Cutting Large Coke
Dear Mrs. Post: How should a
large round layer cake be cut?
If cut In wedges from the center
out, this would make very big
slices. But how else?
Answer: The only way to avoid
large slices would be to cut a.
14-inch cake, let us say, with a.
6-inch round in the center and
then cut the outside edges up toI
this center.
Encouraging Misuse Of Titles
Dear Mrs. Post: I have grown
nieces, quite a lot younger than
myself, who insist on leaving
Aunt" off my name when speak
Ing to me. Is this correct? Per-
haps my signing letters to them
as Jane" has encouraged the
habit. But I thought it was al
ways proper to sign letters "Jane"
or Jane Smith" and never with
q title.
Answer: must say that I have
never heard Of an aunt's signing
her name other than as Aunt
Jane" To sign Jane-un1ess Of
the same age-is unthinkable. No
wonder they call you Jane!

The visiting Foreign Ministers
and their wives yesterday were
accorded different kind of hos
pitality from the formal and Law
ish functions that mark their
engagement pads. They were in
vited out to Belvoir House, the
Virginia estate of the Special AS
sistant to the Secretary Of State
and Mrs. william p. Pawley.
When the Pawleys planned this
party in honor of the Latin
Americans. their top considera-
tion was to have the visitors relax
and enjoy a few hours in the coun-
try. far away from protocol and
the serious business for which
they are in the United States. In
this the thoughtful hosts were
very successful.
Guests arriving at the charm
ing old Georgian mansion were
delighted with the many flower
ing shrubs, the gay, little jonquils
dotting the spacious lawn and the
woods in the background. Greatly
admired was the weeping cherry
tree that burst in bloom the day
of the fete as if especially for the
occasion.
Old-time southern entertaining
was seen at its best as the visi-
tors were treated to some typical
Virginia cuisine, consisting of
Virginia ham, turkey, piping hot
beaten biscuits and every thing
that goes with a country meal.
Home Grown Flowers
Belvoir House has a large and
superproductive hot house on the
grounds and the hyacinths, tulips
and other spring flowers on the
long buffet were samples of the
fragrance and beauty found there.

A new uncertainty in the to-
bacco picture developed Friday
when the House of Representa-
tive rejected a proposal by the
chairman of it's Agricultural com
mittee to exempt tobacco from
price ceilings.
CONGRESSMAN Harold D. Cooley
of North Carolina said after the
defeat of his amendment that
proposed price ceilings on tonac'
co would end the tobacco auction
market system.
Rep. Mccarthy, of Minnesota
Democrat, who spoke against the
Cooley amendment, aerued tna'
marketing producers for tobacco
are in many respects similar to
those by which other common
ties such as meat, are sold.

MERRY CHASE

Jason Rudolph Hinson, of the
Beaverdam section, led Patrol
man w. S. Allen of Tabor City
on a merry chase several days
ago when the officer attempted
to stop him between Sidney and
Chadbourn.
According to Patrolman Allen,
Hinson was driving a 1947 Ford
coupe at about IS miles an hour
when he pulled up behind him,
blew his siren and turned on his
red light. Instead of stopping,
Hinson is said to have continued
as before.
Allen made five attempts to
stop the Hinson car, damaging
tho patrol car some $50 worth
and finally causing it to hang IN
second gear. Hinson eventually
el1ded the patrol car when the
Gears refused to work properly
However, Patrolman Allen had
recognized the driver and Hinson
turned himself in.
In Recorders Court this week
Unison was charged with reck
1ess driving and the case was
