Republicans from Eisenhower own are anxious to boost their airline margin over the Demo- perats in Congress, whom the out- jumber in the Senate by just one nd in the House by five. White House officials gave no him what the President might say, preferring to rest on the general itatement that the Springfield talk j}would be on “domestic questions” and that at Evanston would be international in nature. | The Springfield visit was to have - all the trappings of an old fash- ioned political rally, with GOP can- didates flocking to the presidential platform in a show of unity.

Harold Laubscher, of the Cham- |ber of Commerce, invited the {teachers to make use of the re- sources of? the Chamber, in their | work and to call on the Chamber j at any time. The Chamber secretary brought with him a kit prepared by the organization for the use of the new | teachers with information on the | various organizations and facilities jin the city.

During the September Safety Week, a member of the Key West Safety Council and Cpl. H. Gillett of the Florida Highway Patrol w:ll speak to local civic organizations and groups. To date, a schedule has been arranged through Kermit Lewin of the Rotary Club, Louis | Eisner of the Lions, Adolph Las- |tres of the Jaycees, and M. E. \Louis of the American Legion. Plans for reaching Navy persoa- |nel on the Base as well as the ra- dio audience of WKWF are being processed. Any group interested in | participating in the program should contact this writer at The Key | West Citizen. Judge Enrique Esquinaldo Safety Council member, Judge | Enrique Esquinaldo, explained ma- |ny interesting sidelights of the lo- |cal safety picture. It was evident |from his talk that he felt educa- | tion of both the public and law en- |forcement officials should be the dominant goal of the Safety Coun- cil. “More complete investigation at the scene of an accident is also} “Tt is virtual- | ly impossible for a judge to de-| termine who is right and who is | wrong under our present system | necessary,” he said. of arresting all parties concerned in an accident.

He cited statements of the being vague on the proper amounts to be used. He said they stated that fluoride should not be added to the water in amounts that will make teeth turn yellow. “Then how much should be added?” he asked. “The people who are in favor of the pro- posal say that amounts should be varied with varied conditions of climate, humidity, and tempera- ture.” Douglass added that from the literature he had seen, he could not find set rules for set amounts. On the legality question, Douglass cited the ruling of a Louisiana cir- cuit court judge who had granted an injunction against fluoridation of a water supply. In the injunction Douglass said, Judge Galloway is- sued a thirteen page statement Stating that the city council has no delegated authorty to fluorid- ate the water supply. Caution Urged Douglass cited that the Delaney committee (congressional) in 1952 made recommendations for com- munities to go slow in the intro- ductions of putting fluoride in the water. Douglass stated that he was shocked at the statements made in the newspaper article reporting on Dr. Cobo’s speech to the pre- vious Jaycee meeting. He also stated Dr. Morris has no breakdown of statistics of the Key West cavity situation. Douglass, on stating the uni- versity’s findings about the Ari- zona town where fluoride is in the water naturally, said that the teeth observed were yellow and that cavities were hard to repair —fillings dropped out of teeth— cavities once started, spread rap- idly and in some cases the loss of the tooth was noted. Question Period In the question and answer period following the talk, Doug- any difference whether sodium fluoride or calcium fluoride was used. Douglass answered, “No.” He said that the “fluoride ion” was the primary element. Douglass was informed by one member of the audience that he had used the word “only” 24 per cent of the children of the Ari- zona town were free from dental decay. He was asked how this percentage compared with towns where no fluoride was in the wa- ter. Douglass said that he did not know because he had not been able to find any informa- tion on a possible comparison. Douglass stated that he was in favor of giving children fluorine treatment to teeth by dentist, but not by the water supply. Congressional Study It was stated at the meeting |that the secretary of the Cham- ber of Commerce had’ just re- ceived lengthy testimony from a congressional study of the fluor- ide question. Douglass stated that he receiv- ed his chemical degree from Cornell University. He retired in 1944 after following his profes- sion for 32 years, during which Offices For Rent Air-Conditioned 2nd Floor 604 DUVAL STREET CONTACT Occupants or Paul Barns, 130 SE 25 Road, Miami Printing...
