Lawyer Urges

Single House

To Make Laws

Bar Association Unit Chairman
Makes Suggestion In Law
Journal Article

Provisions for a one-house legis-
lature and for abolishment of all.
courts except the circuit and su-
p)reme benches were suggested in
a Florida Law Journal article for
inclusion in any new state consti-
tution. The article, which should be
of interest to residents of Port St.
Joe, since the state's, .first basic
laws were drawn up here in 1838
at a constitutional convention, was
'written by Dan H. Red'fearn of Mi-
ami, chairman of.the State Bar As-
sociation's special committee on
constitutional revision.
He -proposed retaining the pres-
ent .prohibitions against levying
of income and inheritance taxes by
the state and, commented that the
exemption of homesteads tip to'
$5,000 from taxation "will doubt-
less. be retained in any new consti-
tutions which are adopted by the
people of Florida.'"
There has been much talk in re-
cent years of rewriting the Florida
constitution, which went into ef-
fect 60 years ago, but the machin-
ery for -carrying out the revision
nIver 'has been set in motion.-
Redfearn said the present body
of basic law "has been amended
82 times', Ad it still 1i unsuited to
the present and f'utiii needs of
Florida in many particulars."
The Miami attorney, suggesting
the unicameral legislature, said ne
had asked opinions of residents
and officials of Nebraska, which is
the only state that has only one
branch in its legislature.

Chavers-Fowhand
In New Location
n-~
Durel Brigman, manager of the
local Chavers-Fowlhand furniture
store,'is strutting around this week
like a banty rooster that is undis-
puted king of the barnyard. And
the reason is that his store n;pw oc-
cupies the new commodious "Bo"
Brown building recently completetf
at the corner of Fourth Street and
Reid Avenue.
The new quarters give Durel (we
believe) more than twice the space
he had in his' former location in
the Nedley building adjoining Mil-
ler's Drug Store.

U. S. Tankers Carry
Many Odd Cargoes

The number one task of Amer-
Ica's great of tankers is to trans-
port petroleum products needed to
run-our automobiles, and to heat
our homes. But some tankers carry
different types of liquid cargoes
that are equally essential.
Tankers are employed to haul
a wide variety, of cargoes that
vary in range f1om ordinary water
to highly valuable- whale oil. Most
of these cargoes require special
equipment and precautions in
their handling.
,For instance, asphalt shipped up
from the Cariblbean is carried in
tankers equipped with large heat-
ing coils that must maintain a con-
stant temperature between two
hundred andi two hundred and sev-
enty degrees to prevent the as-
phalt from solidifying. Tar and
creosote are other cargoes that
must be kept under high 'tempe*-
ature during the voyage.
Molasses is also shipped by tan-
ker, and to facilitate its discharge
is heated a day or two before the
vessel reaches port. Industrial al-
cohol, which is a product of mi
lasses is frequently shipped in-
stead of the stickey substance, but
this can only be transported in
tankers that are particularly well
cleaned. Aqua-ammonia and caustic
soda require tankers that are es-
pecially equipped, to be immune to
the chemical properties- of these
cargoes.
When the hunting season Is on
in the Antarctic, tankers go down
with fuel oil for the whaling fleet
and, return with precious cargoes
obtained' from the whales. Palm
oil, linseed oil and coconut oil are
also transported to this country
,via tankers.
Transportation of water by tank-
Kers had. its greatest development
during the war in the Pacific when
local :,pl;eF..,'-er not a;,e,1"pla
for o-Ji :' .ati.i-d fighting forces'
'In eaceTIme, there are still many
*places where cargoes of fresh wa-
ter is highly welcome. In some
outposts in oil producing areas off
the normal trade routes, tankers
with extraordinarily large refrig-
erating space also bring meats anc?
foodstuffs.

Our Country Right or Wrong

DIMES MARCH ONWARD
Once again it becomes the privilege of every
resident of Gulf county to join actively in one
of the great peace-time battles waged by man
in his ceaseless struggle to make his world a
better place in which to live.
This is the relentless battle against infantile
paralysis-common enemy of all, regardless of
age or accident of birth-spearheaded by the
annual March of Dimes, to be held this year
from January 15 to 30.
IComing as it does, in the wake of the sec-
ond worst epidemic of the disease ever to rav-
age our nation, 'the 1947 March of Dimes de-
serves and will undoubtedly. receive the
fullest support of every Gulf countian who not
only wants to help those unable to help them-
selves. but to insure for himself and his fam-
ily the best available care should the dread
cripplerr strike. This county was lucky in the.
last epidemic, with not a single case reported,
but next" time the scourge may take a heavy
toll of our children.
The National Foundation for Infantile Par-
alysis is the property of the American people,.
who .-uppiti it with their dimes. It has no
other means for obtaining funds. What it gets
it gets through the March of Dimes, and
through the March of Dimes only.
Not only is the national foundation pledged
to do its' utmost when epidemic-or even indi-
vidual cases-breaks out, but its ceaseless re-
search into the causes of the diesase is the
only promise we have that some day that cause
will be discovered and rendered harmless.
In the meanwhile, we can all gather satTs-
faction from the fact thatno one stricken with
the disease, regardless of age, race, creed or
color, need go without adequate care through
lack of funds--and polio is among the most ex-
pensive of human afflictions.
There are three things we know with cer-

tainty. Polio will strike again-where or
when we do not know. When it does strike,
the coniniunity will be ready-the national
foundation guarantees that. And the national
foundation will be ready because the March
of Dimes will see to that!

THIS PORTAL TO PORTAL BUSINESS
We were reading a news article on this por-
tal to portal business that some of the large
unions are bringing up and the thought struck
us: "(Good gush, supposing everybody went in
for that !" (For those of our readers,who may
not know what it's all about, several unions
are demanding that concerns pay workers for
the time they enter the premises until the time
they leave, instead of just for the time they
put in after they punch the time clock and
they're going after it for some six or eight
years back.) \
But. as we said, the thought struck us what
if everybody asked for similar recompense.
We'll say you have a house built on the back
end of a 150-foot lot, and it is 100 feet from
their front gate to your door, making 200 feet
for the round trip. We'll take it for granted
that J. R. Guilford delivers your milk, Gus
Creech brings your laundry, and Clarence
Pridgeon delivers your groceries. Of course
the editor of The Star is out of it, since you
get your Star through the mail.
We'll say it takes two minutes to make the
round trip from the gate to the door. Guilford
brings you a quart of milk daily, therby run-
ning up 730 minutes a year, of 97 hours over
an eight-year period. Creech makes the same
trip once a week, but he stops to collect and
chat a few minutes, say seven minutes alto-
gether (you know how he loves to talk), for
a total of 364 minutes a year, or 49 hours over
an eight-year period. Then Pridgeon brings
the groceries three times a week, aid Ire talks
,about as long as Gus for a-total of 1,092 min-
utes yearly, or 145 hours for eight years.
>Now just supposing they started figuring
up that time, say at a dollar an hour (and they
are just as much entitled to it as anybody else)
you would get demands for $291 from them-
and for services that you believed you had
already paid for. We wouldn't like it either*
Portal to portal pay is okeh as far as we're
concerned, if put into effect, but we can't see
any grounds for collecting it for years past.

Women didn't wear slacks in the days of
Shakespeare, the bard who wrote: "There's-
a divinity that shapes our ends."

A two-car garage is a handy thing to have
nowadays. You can use half of it to store the

i RESOLUTION


The beginning of the New Year offers everyone
a wonderful opportunity for new resolutions. Reddy is
no exception, for he plans to renew his old resolutions
to give better service at less cost per "Reddy' Hour."

rhe fact .that he has kept his resolution during
the past twenty years is borne out by the fact that he
now does twice as much work for the some amount of
money as he did twenty years ago.

It's a swell way to start the new year right by re-
solving to "GO ALL ELECTRIC" and let Reddy do the
home tasks for you. You see, the more you use him ...
the less it costs per "Reddy Hour."


FLORIDA POWER

CORPORATION


(Continued from Page 1)
"Apparently there is no desire
on the part of. the people, of Ne-
braska after several years' trial ot'
the one-house plan, to return, to
the two-hous.a system," he said.
He said that the two-housle legis-
lative system of Florida a.nd the
federal govern ent was patterned
after the British Parliament. in
which the house of lords since 1911
has ih:Id no more than token power.
"The bicameral system was trieu
in En'gland for centuries and then
abandoned because of its inefficien-
cy," Redifearn said. "Yet, in mod-
ern Florida, we cling to this Eng-
lish system, with its cumbersome
legislative machinery. The people
of Florida should thoroughly de-
bate whether to take this import-
ant change in legislative machin-
ery before a constitutional conven-
tion is called."
Whether the one-house system
is adopted, or not, Redfearn said,
the .new constitution should pro-
vide for more equitable represen-
taition in the legislature and a
inore workable means of reappor-
tionment.
His proposal for revising the ju-
Idicial system would call for abol-
ishing tih e positions of county
judges, justices of the peace and
various special criminal and civil
courts of reco dis, juvenile courts
and, courts of crimes.
In their place would be a system
of circuit courts with more judges
and special divisions for criminal,
civil, probate, domestic relations
and small claims cases. "Under
such a system only one clerk of the
court would be necessary in each
county," Redfearn said.
He also proposed doing away
with zhe legislative impeachment
procedure f or unseating judges,
which he called "cumbersome" andI
useless. He would substitute, a me-
thod of trial before a committee
composed of three supreme court
justices, three circuit judges and
one layman to be named bthy the
chief justice after impeachihent by
the supreme court.

ulus and Remus and the founding
of Rome, the speaker gave a brief
resume of its rise and fall, discuss.

hibition a number of interesting

companied by Miss Sara Costin.

By Gene Chism

The Scouts are very proud to
have arn Eagle Scout in the troop,
Gale Traxler. Gale is the fi st
Eagle of St. Joe, but by no means
the last.
Sev.'ral boys were up before the
board of review Monday for second
class, first class and merit badges.
Mr. Tomlinson and Mr. Davis were
down with the boys.
Booklets on forestry have been
handed out by Scoutmaster Simp-
son. The boys were asked to study
them. The St. Joe Land & Develp-
inent Company ,has 'granted the
Sco:ets the property asked for to
le used for forestry study. It is
located to the right of the highway,
going to Wewa, just beyond where
Kenney's' railroad crosses the road.
Plans are still being made for
the cruise on the aircraft carrier
Saipan some time this month.
