D. Maddox Tells

of Cannibals and

Snakes On Island


Writes interestingly of Natives On
South Pacific Isle Where
He Is Stationed

Somewhere in S. Pacific
20 July 1945
Dear Editor Bill Have been
missing TThe Star lately; will sure
ba glad when it catches up with
me again. They mean quite a bit
to a fellow. I read about your fish-
ing trip with IHuggins and Cooper.
You couldn't have picked a better
pair of fishermen to take you than
C.apt. Frudaker and Capt. Maltazo.
they both know the bottom of that
Gulf like a map. Wish I were look-
ing at the, Gulf instead of this Pa-
cific.
I have been in a couple of the
different island groups before i
came to this one. Some of them
are certainly pretty. Thisoisiland Is
quite large and very tropical. i
have been over a good portion oL
it and found that they actually
have cannibals, or hea.di hunters.
and the largest snakes there are.
Frank Buck captured the largest
pIyithon in captivity here. There is
also a large .bat with a wingspan
of around 36 inches; the natives
catch them, fatten them up with
papa.as and eat them. What a
dish!
I was up in the jungle not long
ago looking for bananas. It really
.is. thick and rather spooky all
kinds of queer noises. Found a
beautiful waterfall on a hill wi'.h
a small pool on top that had the
largest crayfish I have ever seen.
They looked like, lobsters. Natur-
ally I couldn't resist the tempta-
tion. so 'off with my' pants and in
I go; pretty cold water, though.
Finally ran into a native village.
Their houses were made of leaves
very similar to the palmetto
hicks you have seen in Florida.
'Their clothes (that is. the ones
;hat wore them) are sometimes
leaves and sometimes a piece or
clhth covering ve-y little of their
body. They eat quite a bit of pork
and if one chief goes visiting an-
otlher he carries a pig under his
arm and presents it as a friendly
gift. The natives here are all snmal'
and undernourished. The Fiji Is-
landers are much larger and more
intelligent. These are pretty back-
ward. I got quite a kick out of
some of them I hauled in a truck-
once.
rTiere are a few families ot
French here who operate the coco-
nut plantations, but we don't see.
ihem much. They bring Tokinese
from Indo-China here to do the
work. They are quite a race, too.
They can squat in one position all
day. Beats anything you have ever
seen. For every ten men they
bring one woman to take care of
them. They sure are miserable
looking creatures, but are pretty
good workers.
We live on a large coconut plan-
tation, therefore we have plenty to
eat. They have, a dove here that's
like our mourning dove, but a little
larger and. brightly colored. The
head is a pretty wine color, the
wings are green with a white, spot
and the breast and tail brown.
There is also a parrot that is very
pretty, and all kinds of butterflies.
There are. also millions, of lizards
and some of them are mean look-
ing critters. ,
One of the islands has an active,
volcano on it that gives us
shakeup occasionally .A couple o0

Amemedment To


City Charter Is

Passed By Voters


Provides for Five-Man City Com-
mission Holding Office for
Two-Year Terms


A total of 323 voters turned out
Tuesday to cast their .ballots in
the city charter amendment elec-
tion on the question of whether
the board of commissioners should
consist of five members or remain
as a board of three as at present.
By a vote of 216 to 105--better
than two to one-tihe amendment
was carried (two ballots were
thrown out as spoiled) and, as, pro-
vided in the bill passed, by the
legislature, f i v e commissioners
will be, elected at large next Feb-
ruary, whose terms of office will
be for a period of two years.
The bill also provides that "said
commissioners shall receive, such
compensation as the city commis-
sion may fix and designate by or-
dinance, but not in excess of $25
per month per commissioner."
Acting as po'l keepers at the
election were W. W. Barrier. Mrs.
TV. D. Dare. Troy Jones and I.
C. Nedley.
Tlhe matter of no changes, being
made in Sections 20 and 136 of the
city charter, which were pointed
out and discussed in a letter by
City Attorney E. Clay Lewis pub-
lished at city expense last week in
The. Star, has yet, to be settled,
and it is believed that in order to
keep matters, of the city on an
even keel in future an additional
charter amendment will have to be
passed at the next session of the
legislature amending these two
sections.
Section 20 provides that "the. af-
firmative vote of two members (of
the commission) shall be neces-
sary to adopt any ordinance or
resolution." Sectio.n 1.6 provides
that "regular municipal elections
shall l-. held annually." The
new charter amendment states
that "five eacloiors shall be elected
'u'd installed an commissioners as
provided by See -: l".t" Yet til"
five commission rs to be elected
will come up for re-elpctibn ever',
iwo years,. not annually .

Expected Improvements To Chan"
nel and Turning Basin Would
Save $1,000,000 Annually

Due to lack of space last week
all data presented at the hearing
held here by the war department
in regard to improvements in St.
Joseph's Bay could not be pub-
lished. so this week we print addi-
tional facts 'and figures cited' at
the hearing.
During 1913-14 the U. S. govern-
iment and private interests of the
city of Port St. Joe provided $40,-
105.99 for a channel 300 feet wide
and 24 feet deep across the bar at
the entrance to St. Josephs Bay;
$20,000 of this sum was supplied
by private interests.
During 1938, in compliance with
a request of the city and interested
parties, the war department pro-
vided a channel 300 feet wide by
29 feet deep across the bar and a
channel 200 feet wide and 27 feeu
deep from deep water in the bay
to the north end of the municipal
pier and a 27 foot deep and ap-
proximately six acres in area turn-
ing basin at the municipal wharf,
making a 'total of $140,313 that the
government has spent on the en-
trance and inner channels and, the
turning basin.
The city, during thi-. ,-a-coe time,
the year 1938, .i.-nj. ; tf85,000
for work, including the dredging or
a channel from deep water to tne
south end of 'the 'municipal wharf
and for basins and dredging along
the water structures of the city,
making a total of $205,000 ex-
pended by the city and private in-
terests on the harbor projects.
In a report to the chairman of
the committee on rivers and har-
bors at Washington in December,
1936, the chief of engineers stated
that the district engineer esti-
mated that a commerce of 126.700
tois annually was reasonably
prospective if all enterprises wero
carried out, three quarters of
which wiuhld result from the opera-
lion of the paper mill. He esti-
umated the prospective saving in
transportation by water shipment
at nearly $120,000 yearly.
Figures presented at the hearing
last week showed that in 1943 (the
latest year available for publica-
tion) the total net tonnage of wa-
teriborne commerce passing thru
this port came to 1,319,910 which,
according to the estimate of the
district engineer quoted above,
resulted in a saving of approxi-
mately $1,200,000.
Submitted also wa.s proposed
postwar tonnage that will flow
'through this port as estimated by

Our Country Right or Wrong


U. S. COAST GUARD-1790 1945
One hundred fifty-five years of uninter-
rupted, distinguished service to the United
States' "ain't hay," as the vernacular saying
goes. The U. S. Coast Guard should be justi-
fiably proud of its more than a century and
a half of service, in peace and war. -The na-
tion is proud of the Coast Guard.
This small outfit, a wartime force of 170,-
000, but a scant 10.000 in peacetime, is well
described by the word versatile. Even its
motto "Semper Paratus" (always ready),
catches the spirit of the Coast Guard.
When the attack on Hawaii hurled us into
war, many new jobs had to be undertaken.
Expert small boat handlers began landing as-,
sault troops on distant beaches. The Coast
Guard organized yachtmen with seagoing
"know how" to back the all-too-few naval
vessels' facing Nazi wolf packs in the waters
along our shores; footsore sailors patrolled
40,000 miles of vulnerable coastline, including
that in the vicinity of Port St. Joe; light-
houses and other aids to navigation were kept
in operation ; Coast Guard fliers patrolled sea
lanes, snatched hundreds of survivors frorli
the ocean.
And still these Coast Guard boys in landing
craft roar into new beachheads in the orient.
Coast Guard transports shuttle U. S. troops
from Europe to Asia. Coast Guard sub-busters
work with the navy on Jap subs.
It is most fitting, in the final exertions of
this struggle, to remember the birthday of the
little service doing so many big jobs well!

SOME PEOPLE TAKE THEIR POLITICS
TOO SERIOUSLY
There's something we've never been able
to understand, and that is why most politicians
take their politics so seriously. Personally.
we don't mix in politics much-they are too
dirty. But when we do mix in occasionally
and the shouting is all over, win, lose or draxv,
we hold no grudge against those whom we
might have been opposing. Being of a trust-
ing nature, we've always hoped that the other
fellow would feel the same way about it. But,
alas and alack, such is seldom the case, and
we find very few so-called politicians who
hold to this view. If they win or lose. from
then on we're right up at the top of their list
of public enemies.
What brought this on is Representative C.
C. Wilson's attitude of animosity engendered
during the last legislative election when the
editor of The Star supported E. Clay Lewis
for representative and which was dragged out
again during the city charter amendment
election Tuesday. After all, as Uncle Charlie
himself so often points out, this is a free coun-
try, and we told him before and after the
election that the columns of The Star were
open to him at all times and that we harbored
no persoanl grudge against him, even though
he did defeat our man. When the dust had
settled and the final returns were in we ad-
vised the people of Gulf county that "Every-
one should co-operae fully with our new rep-
resentative in the legislature."
Much to our' sorrow we 'find that almost-
all politicians take their politics too seriously,
but there" isn't a doggoned thing we can do
about it.

DOG POISONER AT WORK
We have been reliably informed that three
or four dogs in the city have been poisoned
during recent weeks. There is nothing much
that anyone can 'do about the matter, as catch-
ing red-handed sly, sneaking individuals who
do such rotten things is difficult, inasmuch as
they do their murderous prowling at night.
We cannot understand why anyone would
want to treat our canine friends in such' an
inhuman way, and all we can suggest is that
dog owners would do well to keep their pets
close to home for the next few weeks.

Why is it that when someone writes a good
novel they have to make a movie of it and
spoil it ?


it did look like his son to a cei-
tain extent, still he was a bit
doubtful, but to go ahead and run
the picture, that maybe illness and
tropical fever made H. M. Jr., look
that way.
Later, Private Hammock, now in
the Mare Island' hospital at San
Francisco, saw the picture and
wrote in stating that it decidedly
was not him. A checkup with th'-
public information division of. the
U. S. Coast Guard, which took the
pictures, revealed that there hadl
been a mixutp in the photos, and
that the first one had been of Ma-
rine Private Herbert M. Hammock
who had been awarded; the Purple
Heart at the same time as Privat
Hillard M. Hammock, Jr.
So herewith we print the correct
picture showing Hillard receiving
the Purple Heart at. the hands of
Brig. Gen. Blake for the loss of
his left leg during action in the
Pacific.
,The oddity' about the matter is
that bwo young men with almost
identical names and, looking some-
what similar bolh received Purple
Hearts at the same. time in the

craters have lakes in them. but
we can't swim in them due to a
fungus in the, water. The ocean is
as clear as Wakulla Springs anrr
is full of sharks and barracuda. so
naturally we can't d'o much swim-
ming in it. There is a plant here
like our elephant's ear back home
but quite a bit larger;, some or
thImn are as, large as a table top.
Guess I had better close now and
go to chow. We will have lamb. i

start bleating any time now. It
comes from New Zealand. Oh. yes,
