(Tribune Photo). AND TRIP TO RAIFORD Negro Gets Court Lesson On Fair Weather Friends By FRED SMITH Tribune Staff Writer Positive action was taken by the Brandon Civic Association last night to solve two of the community's most pressing problems. Committees were formed to gather information on the set ting up of special tax districts and for a study of the problems of the municipal incorporation. Also, a committee was appointed to go before the sheriff with proposals for police protection administered by the Brandon Civil Defense group. In attendance were several candidates for office in the upcoming elections.

They were there obstensibly to offer advice, but in introduction it was said the association couldn't be responsible for any electioneering that crept in. Stormy Approval The association's membership voiced strong approval of a suggestion by Woodie Liles, group one candidate for state representative. Liles said rather than talk month after month about incorporation, for or against, that the association should form committees to gather information on both matters and study them. Liles brought out that the University of Florida provides a service to communities through its Political Science Clearing House. Experts on municipal problems study the situation in an area and give comprehensive findings laying out all the courses the area may follow in solving its problems.

"Get your information, decide on what course to follow, either incorporation or the special tax district solution, then go before the 1959 Legislature with your plans and you'll get something done to meet your situation here in Brandon," Liles said. Strong: Disapproval Sam Gibbons, candidate for the State Senate, voiced strong disapproval against incorporation for Brandon at this time but he conceded that a study of the problems made by the university would be advisable. Gibbons maintained that most of Brandon's problems could be solved under present county government. Police problems, he said, will be alleviated Oct. 1 were lz5 industrial accident deaths during the first six months of 1958 compared to 81 for the same time period in 1957, And industrial accident in juries for the same time period in 1958 numbered 87,000, as against 83,000 for the comparable period in Contractors failing to comply with safety codes already in existence or those to be adopted in the future can be fined as much as $100 for each offense.

Workmen injured while disobeying or disregarding the safety codes can have their compensation cut by as much as 25 per cent. These penalties were enacted by the 1957 State Legislture to make the adoption and enforcement of safety codes more feasible. Hearing Sept. 4 The two new codes recommended will be up for public hearing Sept 4 in Tallahassee. If the Industrial Commission; approves these committee recommendations, it will have to publish advertisement of intent to adopt them.

The new codes would not go into effect until 30 days after the adoption advertisement. The Safety Code Committee is made up of Dr. Allen T. Cole, consulting chemical engineer, Lakeland, chairman, represent ing the public; R. L.

Richard, Merrill-Stevens Dry Dock and Ship Repair Company executive, Jacksonville, and A. J. Clapp, vice president, Maule Industries, Miami, representing employers; and F. W. T.

Smith, state president. Brick Masons and Plasterers International Union, Miami; and L. N. Rahn, secretary, Florida State Council of Machinists, Tampa, representing employes. By PAUL MacALESTER Tribune Staff Writer Two industrial safety codes aimed at avoiding industrial injuries and deaths through power-line electrocution and excavation cave-ins were recommended yesterday at Tampa by a special commtitee of the Florida Industrial Commission.

The recommended codes came out of an all-day meeting of the commission's safety code committee. The proposed rule for safe guarding cranes working near VcSllSS power equipment capable of lifting or moving materials on construc tion projects, including "cranes, derricks, power shovels, drilling rigs, core-boring rigs, gin poles. pile drivers and similar appa ratus. Complete Coverage The regulations would cover all types of "contractors," including private and public individuals and agencies, governmental units and political bodies. It forbids these contractors from "erecting, installing, storing or otherwise utilizing equipment within six feet of any high-voltage power lines unless the equipment is insulated, the power lines are de-energized or grounded." The trenching regulations, designed to protect workmen from being buried or injured by cave-ins, apply to both large Summer Music Festival Set A countywide Summer music festival, with more than 1000 music students from 6 to 60 taking part, will be presented in the City Auditorium Thursday night at 7:30 under the county school system's 11th and 12th month enrichment program.

In all, seven groups from 16 school centers will perform in the free concert, open to the public. Leading the program will be a song flute and rhythm band of 187 elementary age musicians. They will be followed by 170 members of junior high and elementary age groups. A massed intermedite band will add variety to the evening program with Here Comes the Parade and Holiday Serenade. Martial Air A martial air will be added by the advanced junior high band and the all-county senior high band will offer Black Diamond March, Melodic Caravan and Holiday for Winds.

Folk and square dances will be performed by a dance group from the Manhattan School Summer center. Ending the program will be the all-city adult band directed by Anthony C. Fredric. The band unit is made up of adults and college students. They will play the Mozart Festival, Four Episodes for Band and Stars and Stripes Forever.

Musicians in the mass program will come from Summer centers at the following schools: Brandon, Bryan, Buffalo, Cahoon, Chamberlain, Franklin, Hillsborough, Jefferson, Manhattan, Menden-hall, Plant, Seminole, Philip Shore, Sulphur Springs, West Tampa and Ybor. The climax of the Negro Summer music program will be in the all-city festival to be presented at Meacham School" tomorrow night at 8 o'clock. Some 220 children from five school Summer centers will take part in the night program. The concert is open to the public. Engineering report; yesterday killed city hopes of building a $225,000, five-story off-strelt parking garage at the northwest corner of Marion and Jackson streets.

Harry Orr, chairman of the city parking commission, reported "the five-story deal is out," and explained that park ing engineers told the commission the area is too small for the type of facility contemplated. Self-Serviee Out Because of the limited size, Orr said, the city would be unable to operate it as a self-service facility. The self-service garage, he continued, was the only type which engineers reported could be a paying proposition for the city on a bond certificate program. The property is owned by the city. Mayor Nuccio said that since engineers have branded the site unsuitable for the off- street garage, it will be held and possibly later sold traded for a larger, site in the same general area.

Engineer Study Traffic engineers were hired by the city on the parking com mission recommendation to make feasibility studies on city off-street parking lots. Wilbur Smith and Associates were em ployed to do tht study work for $5000. Orr said the engineers favor the self-parking facility, where motorists drive in and park their own cars. This type of facility, he added, requires considerably more area than a garage where hired attendants park the vehicles. To Wait on Report The parking commission chairman added that the commission planned now to wait until the feasibility survey is completed before deciding what to do about another multi-story parking garage site.

He said it is anticipated the survev will be completed within four to six weeks. Nuccio added that prelimi nary studies "show a definite need" for such a facility in that general area. Both officials said the death of the five-story garage plans has no bearing on plans for the city to convert the Seaboard Air Line Railroad freight station property into an all-day, self- service parking lot. Swap Under Way The city and the railroad now are completing negotiations for a land and cash swap that will give the city the Seaboard prop erty along Whiting St. between Morgan and Franklin streets.

This will allow the city to open Florida Ave. and Marion St. as connecting routes for the new Brorein Bridge. The land in between the, streets, it is planned, will be used for the all-day parking lot. This facility, too, will be financed with a revenue certificate bond issue payments guaranteed from all city parking meter collections.

Mail Order Business Shop By Mai! And Save To 70, Mill Outlet By BOB FELLOWS Tribune Staff Writer A Negro boy got some sound advice from Criminal Court Judge L. A. Grayson yesterday on the matter of fair-weather friends and money. Eighteen-year-old Willie Lee Washington, of 1602 Highland, came up for sentencing on a grand larceny charge.

Assistant County Solicitor Herb Goldburg said Willie spent more than $700 of the $1000 he took from the home of a Negro woman, Nancy Brown, of 1612 Highland. Willie spent some of the money on himself, but most of it went toward providing a bang-up time for friends, Goldburg added. Did any of those friends come to visit you in jail?" Grayson asked Willie. "Yes sir, one did," Willie said. How Many Friends? "How many friends did you spend this money on?" Grayson asked.

"Two," Willie replied. "Well, that's better than aver age, urayson saia. mats ou per cent friendship, so you got a considerable higher average than most. Tell me, didn't you spend any of the money on girls?" No sir, these two friends is boys," Willie said. "See there, you don even know how to spend your money," i Grayson said, and sentenced Willie to a two-year, all-expense trip to Raiford.

Other Cases Among others sentenced yesterday, charges against them and their terms, were: Gary Donald Moore, 15, of Plant City, manslaughter, confined to Marianna until 21, or three years in Raiford if indicated. Barbara Leggett, 20-year-old Negro, of 1819 5th using car without owner's consent, six months county jail. Benny Reynolds, 16-year-old Negro, of 4124 Northt Lois PHONES HIS SENTIMENTS New Iraq Chief Wants Between Tax with additional sheriffs men provided for the East Hillsborough area by new budget allowances. Disagreeing with Gibbons, Paul S. Buchman, candidate opposing Liles in the state rep-representative race, said that Brandon's remedy to its growing pains lies ultimately in incorporation.

Temporary Relief Special tax districts, said Buchman, afford temporary re lief, but in the future, if present growth is any. indication, municipal government will be needed to meet the area's de mands. While the committees formed are charged with looking into all the problems of Brandon, one of those subject to study needs immediate solution, the gathering was told by officials of the association. Police protection was cited by speaker after speaker as the town most pressing immediate concern. Recent vandalism and petty crime in the area has been "rampant" in the words of one resident, and a murder near Brandon several months ago is still unsolved.

After a good deal of discus sion, the association formed a committee to go before Sheriff Ed Blackburn with a proposal to deputize volunteers from the Civilian Defense group in Bran don. These men would patrol at night and have the power of ar rest. Questions From Floor Questions from the floor as to powers, responsibilities, expenses and capabilities of the force were kicked around by the forum. No definite answers to the many questions were given other than a offer to bond the men by Finley Ricard, an insur ance man. Objections by the sheriff to this plan in the past stem from his reluctance to accept respon sibility for the volunteers actions, Gibbons said.

Ricard came back with the idea of bonding the men and removing this responsibility from the sheriff's head. Several persons voiced the opinion that the men were not bondable. Ricard said that he'd check into the matter and get together with the committee. to continue the former rela tions between Iraq and the West." All foreigners in Iraq were safe, Kassem said. He added that Iraqi oil "will continue to flow to its usual markets." Kassem appointed Abdul Malik Zaibak, the senior embassy secretary, as acting chief diplomatic representative.

The instructions from Baghdad, the spokesman said, "were perfectly clear that the ambassador and the chief minister do not hold their posts anymore." The ambassador. Prince Zaid, has avoided the embassy since the July 14 coup in Iraq. Over the weekend, he returned to London from Italy, but his whereabouts here were unknown. Prince Zaid is a great-uncle of King Faisel, who was slain in the rebellion. Tampa Youth A Diamontologist Fred Kinnard, 17, of 5817 15th is possibly the only teen-age diamontologist in the Tampa Bay area and he has a certificate to back up his title.

Young Kin- nrrA Tuna I tiai a win, graduate of Hillsbor High, came by his unusual title while seeking a scholarship i a national con- Kinnard test sponsored by the Diamond Council of America. He didn't get the scholarship (a New Jersey youth was the winner) but did successfully complete an examination to win the diamontologist award. The certificate has already brought Fred one offer of a manager-training job with a leading Tampa jewelry firm and according to the manager of that store the certificate is a high honor which any jewelry firm would hasten to recognize. Kinnard, in winning the award, completed a thorough study of diamonds. And right now Kinnard said he is not sure if he will pursue his intention of becoming a dentist or if he just might not get into another drilling field, diamonds that is.

"At first I thought it was a heavy downpour, then I saw it bounce off the ground in front oi me, Beauchamp said.

He said the twister struck a pump house on his farm, sped across an open field tumbling dairy cows, then hit a steel barn used as a shed for cows before milking. He said the tornado split before it traveled the length of the farm. It also tore a covering from a shade-shed. Cows Rolled Over Beauchamp said he saw the cows "rolled over and over on the ground" but none of them were hurt. He said a flock of birds which usually hung around the shed were sucked up into the twisting funnel and carried off.

i Several dairy hands were working in the area, but none were hurt. A number of persons driving by also reported seeing the storm, which was headed in a southerly direction when it moved on. The Greenfield Farms are located near U. S. Highway 27.

(VP) About 40,000 Florida public lodging establishments are going to have to apply for official classification in the next six months or quit advertising.

Hotel Commissioner Richard Edgerton said a 1957 law prohibits advertising or displaying of signs by any public lodging business, which is not properly qualified with the commission. There are four general classifications. These are hotels, motels, apartment houses and rooming houses. Edgerton said all establishments which rent lodging facilities are being furnished cards explaining requirements for various classifications. The hotel commission said the motel classification is causing the most confusion.

Under state law, a motel must have six rooms. However, many establishments with less than1 six rooms advertise themselves as motels, motor courts, tourist courts or motor lodges, he said. Under the law, these smaller establishments should be classified as rooming houses and are not permitted to use any name which could be confused with moteL You're Always Welcome at Your Local Authorized OLDSMOBILE Quality Dealer's Here's why you notice so many '58 Oldsmobiles these days: 1.
