certain birth defects and rheuma-
told arthritis.
Without having the operation,
Carla Cages future seemed dark
indeed. While it is impossible to
tell to the exact degree how much
she has been helped, the doctors
do say that now she stands a So
so change of being normal. At the
time of birth, her head measured
thirteen and half inches. At ten
weeks, when operated on, it had
increased in size to seventeen and
a half inches. Since the operation,
the head has decreased so much
that in appearance the baby shows
no sign of having any abnormal
head size.
"Now we have hope-and hope
is a wonderful thing" said Mr..
Price. "Of course, there must be
a difference in seeing a normal
child stricken and in never hav-
ing seen the child normal in the
first place. Carla Cages condition
was so hopeless that anything
would have been an improvement.
We have every right to feel that
she may be a normal child as a
result of this operation. There is
not much hope for her spinal con-
dition, but even there-there is
always a chance that her legs may
improve and she may not be a
cripple" :,
Mrs. Price, pretty dark-haired
young woman with laughing
brown eyes, spends the major
portion of her time caring for
Carla Gage. Does the baby re-
quire more attention than the av-
erage baby? She smiled, Il
wouldn't know. 1 just love looking
after her, anyway, and l don't
mind if it takes all my time"

JORDAN DOESN'T
FAVOR SECOND
RATE EDUCATION
By SEN. B. EVERETT JORDAN

BY SEN. B. EVERETT JORDAN
WASHINGTON.-A decision by
Congress appears to be near on
the long-debated question of the
Federal governments role in the
field of public education.
For many years, particularly
since World War II, this issue
has been hanging in the balance.
I think that it is an issue that
should be settled as soon as pos
sible. Indecision in itself has COM
plicated the many problems of
education and made them more
difficult to solve.
In making a decision about
Federal aid to education, there
are several unacceptable facts that
cannot be ignored.
First, and most important, is
the fact that we have not kept up
in filling the needs of our public
schools. There has been a pro-
nounced deficit since the immedi-
ate postwar years. With our rap
idly growing population, we have
been slipping behind in spite of
vastly increased expenditures.
Another vital factor that can
not be ignored is that education
is everybody's business. The con-
troll of public education, that is,
the operation of public schools has
always been at the local level.
This is as it should be, and am
strongly opposed to weakening in
any way local control of public
schools. At the same time, ALI
levels of government have the
moral obligations to improve pub
lie education.
After a great deal of thought
and study, l am convinced that
Federal domination and interfer-
ence can and must be avoided.

feel that a Federal program
of assisting states and local COM
munities in education can be es-
tablished on sound and work
able basis.
l intend to support legislation
that will give the States a free
hand in administering funds pro-
vided by the Federal government.
1 will not support legislation that
would permit Federal Intervention
or domination.
We have reached the point
where positive action must be
taken if our vast system of pub
Tic education keeps abreast of the
times. 1t is a simple matter Of
arithmetic that second-rate schools
produce second-rate citizens who
make second-rate communities,
states, and nations.

BONNER HOPES TO
UPGRADE STATUS
OF COAST GUARD
Committee Takes Favorable Ae.
zion on Several Bef+erments
For The Service

WASHINGTON, D. C. - Con-
gresham Herbert C. Bonner.
Chairman of the House Committee
on Merchant Marine and Fish
cries, announced this week that
favorable action had been taken
by the Committee to upgrade the
status of the United States Coast
Guard.
In addition to the Coast Guard,
Bonner's Committee has jurisdic-
ton over the merchant marine,
fisheries and wildlife conservation,
Coast and Geodetic Survey, navi-
cation, the Panama Canal, and
the vital new field of oceanogra-
ply.
Congressman Bonner, long in
terested in Coast Guard affairs,
said the bill, which is in the ma
ture of an omnibus" proposal,
involves several very important
organizational matters affecting
the stature and efficiency of the
agency to meet its expanding gov
ernmental role.
The First District Congressman
described the main features of the
Legislation as follows:
"(a) Increase the present limi-
tation of four years applicable to
extensions of enlistments to a
new limitation of six years;
(b) Increase the present limi-
tation of 5000 commissioned Off
GERS to a new limitation of $500;
(c) Improve the composition
and organization of both the ci-
william teaching staff and the per-
manent commissioned teaching
staff at the Coast Guard Acade-
my;
(d) Improve the organization
and composition of the Office of
the Commandant at Coast Guard
Headquarters by:
(1) Eliminating the present re-
quirement for the statutory APP
pointment of the Engineer-in-
Chief of the Coast Guard;
(2) Eliminating the present re-
quirement for a fixed tenure of
office for the Assistant Comman-
dant of the Coast Guard, and pro-
viding instead for the admins
trative selection and assignment
of that officer; and
81 Providing for the increased
grade of Admiral for Comman-
dant of the Coast Guard"
Commenting upon the bill, Bon
ner said, ain general, the bill
would bring the organization of
the Coast Guard into line with
it's present day responsibilities.
and would place it more closely
in relation to the other military
services.
1.-THE cost of the bill, drafted aft
er careful study in the Coast
Guard and the Treasury Depart
ment over many months, will not
exceed about $11, 900 per year.
Testimony of Assistant Secre-
tary of the Treasury, Honorable
A. Gilmore Flues, and Vice Ad-
miral A. C. Richmond, Coast
Guard Commandant, convincingly
supported enactment of the legis-
lation.
"This is something we have
needed for long time. Most peo-
pie do not realize the importance
that attaches to this great agen-
cy. This was valiantly demon
strated during World War II. But
changing conditions, domestic and
international, add increasing bur-
den of responsibility in the Coast
Guard that should be effectuated
at the appropriate high level OF
it's service."'

These projects are aimed
primarily against three major
Gripping diseases: birth de-
fects, arthritis and polio. But
every new discovery made by

support adds to the great body
of our medical knowledge and
contributes to mans health

Contractor
BY the Associated Press

A Florida State road engi-
neer said today he accepted
$500 from a private contractor
but refused to take any more
money because he thought the
contractor was trying to buy
him.
The testimony of Jack H.
Black before a special House
subcommittee investigating the
$40 billion Federal-State high
way program brought to five
the number of Florida State
road officials who have ad-
mitted accepting cash payment
from a firm whose work they
were supervising.
But Mr.. Black, an engineer
for % years with the State
Road Department. insisted he
was only being paid for outside
services rendered Cone Bros.
Contracting Co., Tampa, Fla.
when he received the $500 in
weekly installments Of $25.
Company Suspended
Cone Bros. one of the largest
road-building firms in Florida,
has been suspended from
further bidding on highway
projects as a result of the dis
closure of its undercover pay
ments to State officials.
Mr.. Black, who was fired
from his State job along with
13 other engineers involved in
the investigation, said he
accepted money for helping the
firm during his off hours with
land surveys. But after receiv-
ing $500. he said, he felt he
had been paid enough and
when the next $25 came in he
sent it back.
Gordon c. Walker. a project
engineer from Naples, Fla. told
House investigators earlier that
he received money after he had
done surveying jobs for Cone
in his spare time.
Three State engineers said
yesterday they received money,
generally $25 a week in cash in
unmarked envelopes. Com
mittee investigators said Cone
records showed those payments
totaled more than $500.
George Kopecky. chief COM
mittee investigator. said that
Cone records revealed that 81
envelopes were sent to Mr..
Walker and that he was paid
a total of $3.50 in 1857 and
1858 when he was assigned to
four Cone projects in Collier
County.
Mr.. Walker said he didn't
think he received that much.
He said that it was his best
recollection. after talking with
his wife. that he received IL or
IS payments totaling perhaps
$500 or $3.50.
Mr.. Walker said the survey
ing, he did would have cost
Cone at least twice as much
as he was paid.
Replying to a question, Mr..
Walker said he thought it was
morally all right" for him to
do the work for Cone on his
own time.
