THE STAR The Home Newspaper of Northwest Fi6rida's Future Industrial Center VOLUME IX PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA, FRIDAY, JULY 12, 1946 NUMBER 41 Seven-Inning Tilt With Mullets Won By St. Joe 22 To 5 'Saints Go On Hitting Spree In Re- turn Game Played Wednesday On Carrabelle Field The St. Joe Saints, apparently smarting from the near-defeat in the game played here Sunday wilth the Carrabelle Blue Mullets, went on a rampage in the return game played Wednesday at the Cai-:A- 'belle ball park and handed the O'fullets a 22-5 drubbing in a game played in a steady drizzle that was finally called in the seventh. The Shints put the game on ice in the first inning by chalking up eight runs and spread, the balance of their 14 tallies over the remain- ing six frames. Alton Dendy and John Lane led the hit parade with three out of four times at bat, Lane getting two three-baggers, with Dendy driving in six runs on his three bingles. Lefty Thomason held the mound for St. Joe and gave up but seven hits as his team mates nicked the Carrabelle hurler for 16 hits, 8 'bases on balls and four batsmen hit by the pitcher. -The Apalachicola Blountstown game was rained out, while the Panama City Spartans took the Wewahitchka 'Gators 5 to 4.

Elliot said the River Junction dam would prevent "damaging! and costly floods" and conserve: water for domestic uses and agrl-i cultural purposes. The d'am would! be located where the Flint and Chattahoochee rivers unite to form the Apalachicola. Elliot reported the dam would not impede the flow of the Ap- alachicola and would be provided with locks to 'permit the passage of river traffic. The project would deepen the Apalachicola Chatta- hoochee-Flint waterway to nine feet through erection of the River Junction dam and three others to be locafid at Columbia, Ala., Bu- ford, Ga. and Columbus, Ga.

Reply of the mayor, we have been told, was that he thought differently, and that the. matter will be discussed locally. Active recruiting for the reacti- vated national guard, which prob- ably will include two infantry regi- ments. two field artillery battalions andf anti-aircraft and coast artillery units, will begin about August I, and the units probably will be mus- tered into the federal service by September 1.

That the 211th Infantry Regi- ment be assigned to South Florida counties. That the 116'Th Field Artillery Battalion be reactivated with head- quarters in Tampa. That the 149th Field Artillery Battalion 'be assigned to various towns in Polk county. That units of two anti-aircraft battalions and of a coast artillery battalion ibe scattered throughout the state, as may be decided later. Tampa, Orlando. St. Petersburg, Jacksonville and Tallahassee are being considered as possible head- quarters for a reserve air squad- ron, 'but the final decision is to "be- left up to the governor. The state headquarters will remain in St. Augustine. According to Col. H. W. Hesterly of Tampa; member of the national guard advisory board for Florida, units generally will be located In the same places as before the war, but since the personnel authorized is nearly -twice as great as -befofe, there will 'be room for many new units. And that is what is being counted on for securing a unit for Port St. Joe. -----r-------- * Billy Howell Home On Leave Billy Howell, F2/c, with the U. S.

Our Country Right or Wrong GUEST EDITORIAL ON OPA ) (This editorial represents an attempt on the .part of your editor to consolidate the view- points of a number of residents of Port St. J6oe into a concise whole on what they think of the death of the OPA. Naturally it will be interlarded with a few of our own ideas on the subject. However, the gist of opinion is that of local business men, working men and housewives.) We were told that unless OPA is continued wild inflation will be the result, but we were also told that OPA would hold prices in line and assure an equitable distribution of essen- tial goods. It has accomplished neither. We have had inflation right along as the result of artificial scarcity of many articles. The consumer has been convinced that price ceil- ings mean nothing if goods are not available. Full production with resulting competition will be our best guarantee -against inflation. When supply is built up to a parity with de- mand, prices will adjust themselves without the necessity .of returning to OPA. The con- sumer will be able to get the things he needs at prices he can afford to pay. Government -ul.-i.i.- will be removed, with a consequertt reduction in taxes. , On the other hand we find some of our lo- cal people bemoaning the removal of price ceilings. Will it work? they ask. Will prices go up for a few months and then level off? They see a spiraling of prices with the aver- age citizen digging out his: savings in order to live. With the rise in living costs labor will be demanding higher wages, with a conse- quent revival of strikes and a dropping off of production. Your editor can see both sides of this vital question, and whether or not OPA is revital- ized, the suggestion we have to offer is that everyone buy no more right now than is absolutely necessary and hold to savings un- til we find out whether we are to get price reductions. If necessary, refuse to buy any items on which prices suddenly shoot up. A buyers strike would automatically forde the price of any article back to a normal level. Frankly, we believe that the country will get along just as well without the government interfering. Our nation is now in its 170th year, and for 166 of those years we got along nicely without "ceilings." FAITH IN STATE'S FUTURE Floridians generally, and Miamians in par- ticular, will hail with delight the interstate commerce commission examiner's recommen- dation that control of the Florida East Coast Railway be turned over to the St. Joe Paper Company-a subsidiary of the Alfred I. du- Pont estate. While the examiner's recommendation iv. - still to be passed on, there seems little reason to doubt that the findings will be approved by those who have the final say. Fact that the duPonts have spent millions in Florida already, and that they are con- stantly increasing their investments here, is a good indication of their faith in the state' s future. In this connection, their representa- tives have demonstrated in the past willing- ness to work with community and state 01- ficials for the general good of all concerned. -The Miami Post.

Merchandise Now In Stock In Our Store Will NOT Be Sold Above OPA Prices SCHNEIDER'S DEPARTMENT STORE Simple Precautions Aid In Preventing Polio, Says Doctor Lacking 'a preventive or cure for the disease, the public's pro- tection against serious infection with infantile paralysis lies in a rigid adherence to a list of simple precautions, says Dr. Terry Bird, county health officer. The agent which causes polio- myelitis is know as a filterable virus and the germ, a bacteria, has never been isolated, states the doc- tor. The source of infection is thought to be from nose and throat discharges of infected persons. Bowel discharge from infected per- sons also contains the virus. Flies are known to be capable of trans- mitting the virus. With these things in mind, Dr. Bird advises everyone to observe the following precautions:; Any child or adult who has fe- ver of undetermined origin should consult their family physician im- mediately. Children should not be permitted to attend any unnecessary public gatherings during the prevalence of the disease. A high level of sanitary environ- -ment should be established thru fly control, proper disposal of gar- bage and sewerage, and a general community clean-up program. Flies should be controlled by screening, eradication of breeding places and the use of DDT on breeding places and' garbage. Garbage should, be collected reg- ularly and disposed of properly. All garbage cans should. have covers and. be sprayed with DDT. The milk and water supply should be protected' from contami- nation by flies, improper handling and improper sewage disposal. By initiating and. carrying out the above suggestions much more will be accomplished in preventing polio and other serious diseases than by. establishing a quarantine such as Georgia has, instituted against Florida, said Dr. Bird.

Jones, Manager On Beacon Hill Highway 2V2 Miles From Port St. Joe STARDUST and MOONSHINE We like to have relatives drop in for a visit occasionally, but we believe that after this we'll find some other way of entertaining 'em than taking 'em fishing-per- haps a few fast games, of ping-pong or tiddlywinks. What we're leading up to is that last week-end Doc Goody and Sam Bolin, relatives of our wife, came down from Georgia and, naturally we had to take 'em fishing. We fished at Willie Rowell's place on the Dead Lakes Friday (getting up at 5:30-and how we hated that!) but weren't very successful, get- ting rained out. Ed' Pridigeon, Jr., volunteered to take our guests to a spot where they could really -each some fish, so early Saturday morning (5:30 again!) we set out up the canal in Ed's boat. After fishing an hour or two a rain blew up and we were forced to take .shelter in a'palmetto hut about a mile up the stream, getting a super drenching during the trip. We sat around a couple of hours with Sam and Ed smoking us like hams in their efforts to get a fire going, and then started fishing again. The fish were quite co-op- erative, but in about an hour we hit slam-bang into a real rain storm and decided to head for home. Actually the rain was so heavy that coming down the c:aial fish were swimming right along beside us, shoulder high they couldn't tell where the water of the canal left off and the ra'n began. We like to fish, but .we're dog- gcned if we like to take a bath on the installment plan. (And Ed sure knows where the fish hang out, for we brought back a-plenty.) ,.And speaking of fish if you want something out of the ordin- ary, go down .to the St. Joe Hard- ware Co. and ask Horace Soule for one of his "Fisherman's Yard- sticks." And speaking of Horace Soule, did you notice our esteemed mayor tarring the root of The Star building a week or so back? Probably working up good will -come election time. We'll let you know for sure after we get his bill for the job. We followed a pair of ears hall a block down the street the other day and slapped them on the back in the belief it was Stanford Beck- ham-only to have them turn out to be a perfect stranger. And were our earsered'! Nifty sign Miles Hurlbut has in- stalled on, his new building Tor Mouchette's Style Shop. The front of the postoffice, received a new coat of paint this week.

DISTRICT SCOUT MEET (Continued from page 1) Progress being made in negro Scouting was discussed and Tom Reynolds, Scout executive, stated that an effort was being made to employ a full-time negro field ex- ecutive. Roy Morris, chairman of the or- ganization and extension commllit- tee, reported that the district had lost eight units and had gained but- one this year, but that six units were now in process of organiza- tion and; some of the lapsed unit? would be revitalized.
