St. Joe Air Field

Is On Federal List

For Improvement


One of 112 In Florida Recom-
mended for Improvement or
Construction By CAA

The Port St. Joe airport, nothing
to brag about at present, was one
or 112 on a list of Florida fields
that the Civil Aeronautics Admin-
istration recommended Saturday
to: construction or improvement
within the next three years.
The 112 in Florida are among
4,431 airports in the entire country
which the CAA said should be built
or improved in that period. From
this list will be selected the proj-
ects to be included in the construc-
tion program for the 1948 fiscal
year, starting next July 1, depend-
ing upon the amount of money atu-
propriated by congress and the rel-
ative urgency of each project.
Projects on the list issued Sat-
urday are estimated to cost $985,-
800,000, of which the federal gov-
ernment's share would be $441,600,-
000 and, the local sponsors' share
would be $544.200,000.
And right there is probably
where the S't. Joe airport g-ts
knocked in the head, for the CAA
will pay half of the engineering
cost, half of the construction cost
and 25 per cent of the land cost in
establishing an airport, and right
now Gulf county hasn't any large
amounts of money to toss at the
birds.
Back in 1945 the local airport was
included- on a list of field's recom-
mended by the CAA for construc-
Lion or improvement, and at that
time the estimated cost for a
Class 2 field for Port St. Joe wa-
placed at $396.750. and, a similar
class field for Wewahitchka at
$156,350. Even oi a 50-50 basis that
would come to $198,375 as Gulf
county's share of the St. Joe field
and $78.175 as the sponsor's, share
of the Wewa project-andiusn's
jist ain't got that kind. of money
right now.

REMODELING JOB AT
SMITH'S PHARMACY

John Robert Smith has had his
drug store all torn up during' the
past two week-endls due to the
fact that he .has had his termite-
chew'ed wooden floor replaced with
a red-tinted concrete floor. For a
time, with sand spread over the
fresh concrete, the pharmacy re-
sembled somewhat an old-time, sa-
loon.
In addition to the new floor, J.
R. has also installed wome fancy
chromium and leather booths for
his soda fountain customers.


The cellar-dwelling Merchants
have finally broken the jinx that
hias hung over them since the open-
ing of the City Ba'sketball League
louiney and have chalked up two
wi ins. They're still in the cellar,
liut those two wins have sure
put new life into the boys.
They seem to have put the In-
liall sign on the McCoy aggrega-
tion, for last week they downed
the Grocerymen by the close score
of 31 29, and' Wednesday night
Look them again 34-33 in a fast
tilt that went to an overtime play-
off. Seems nobody had a rule book
handy, as MeCroy's protested. the
game. claiming it was necessary
to make two points in the, first
playoff period. Perusal of" the rule-
book yesterday ended the protest,
as it stated that during the first
overtimee period one point will win,
secondd period takes twop points, and
each period after that one point
will will.

past ten days are as follows:

Fire Seriously Damages

Stanford Beckham Home

The residence on the corner of
Seventh Street and Woodward Ave-
nu. occupied iby Mr. and Mrs. Stan-
fold iBeckham was seriously dam-
aged by fire Wednesday morning
about 11 o'clock, the damage to
furnishings and tihe dwelling being
approximately $2500. according to
Fire Chief Dan Brooks, Jr.
It is believed the blaze started
from an oil stove in the kitchen
which had a low fire burning. No
one was home at the time.

TWO GRASS FIRES CALL OUT

The file department was called
mlt-twice Sunday afternoon to ex-
tinguisih grass fires, the first oc-

In Radio Talk -Monday Night, Gov-Ju jle Iri A. Hutchison Deidin- Moore To Act As Chairman for St.


ern..r Says Cities Can Not Look
To Him for Share In Taxes

We don't know how many read-
'rs of The Star listened iii on Gov-
ernor Millard Caldwell's radio ad-
idress Monday night in which he
discussed at length finances of the
state, but he said that the state
can increase its expenditures by
approximately $25,000,000 a: year
without raising taxes, and went on
to point out that wouldn't be any-
where near enough to fill all re-
quests of agencies, institutions and
political subdivisions for funds. .
And here all the time we were un-
der the impression that Caldwe!,
was going to cut operating ex-
penses of the state to the bone if
we voted for him for governor.
He also came right out and said
that the cities of the state, which
are all suffering from malnutrition
due to the homestead law, can ex-
pect no support from him in their
demands for shares of present state
tax money unless they offer andi
support substitute tax measures.
Caldwell expressed sympathy for
nearly all requests for more cash,
but couldn't see where it was to
come from, remarking. "I reiterate
here what I have said before-I
will have no part of rubber check
appropriations for the schools, wel-
fare and institutional care. An ap-
propriaition without definite cash to
hack it up is worse than worthless
because it raises false hopes. Ap-
propriations for more than we
have on hand or in sight cannot
be approved."
Summing up. hlie said "it now ap-
pears that allocations to the coun-
ties should be limited to the pres-
ently distributed $35,000,000 or
326,o000,00(1 plus any increase inii
state school aid. Assistance to
cities in the form of abandoned tax
fields, should be compensated for
with substitute levies.
"The funds on hand and antici-
pated must be made to cover ex-
penditures for health, welfare, the
colleges, institutional care, .tuber-
culosis sanatoria, general opera-
ilons and, in addition, expand edu-

County To Have New

System For Registration

Of Vital Statisticst

The Florida State Board ot
Health announces that a single-
:ounty registration of vital statis-
tics has been inaugurated inll 24
countiess including Gulf county.
With this system each county
leavingg a full-time health depart-
ment will be consolidated into one'
local registration district under
)iie local registrar and a deputy.
County health officers will be ap-
pointed as the county local regis-
trar, and sub-registrars for the col-
lec:tion of birth and death record's
ind issuance of burial-removal-
transit permits in various sections
of the counties will be appointed.
All original records of birth and
death will be cleared through the
county health officer before trans-
mittal to the bureau of vital sta-
tistics in Jacksonville. This sys-
tem will eliminate the old method
of having scattered, local registrars,
in various districts of the coun-
ties who made their reports di-
rectly to the central bureau.

.Many Species of Wild Life
Are Rapidly Disappearing

Earned with guns and traps, the
United States huntsman has just
about exterminated some 50 spe-
ci'.s of North American wild ani-
m1als.
Dr. H. .Jackson o'f the United
tateis Fi;h and Wild Life Service
u -rveyed the wild uIrimal situation
anid fund thl wood Ifull il of hunters
lbut low on ,l!'.me. He_ attribute; l.the
game scarcity to spreading civiliza-
tion anl population.
Dr. Jackson said the grizzly bear
and tCie big wolf may soon be found
only in zoos and bedtime stories.
The Florida black bear, the Alas-
kan glacier bear and the timber
wolf of the northeastern states also
are headed for extinction, he re-
ported.
Among those animals which al-
ready have reached t-he vanishing
point are the big buffalo of the
northeast, last seen in 1801; the
Maine giant mink which vanishe(
in 1860; the Arizona merriam elK,
last seen in 1900; the :big plains
wolf, which disappeared in 1930.
The fishe, the martin, the wol-
verine. several types of seals and
the little kit fox of the western
plains have gone the way of all
furs-to ladies' shoulders. B ut
Jackson is more concerned over
the future of these animals which
"have been reduced to a danger
point everywhere in North Amer-
ica."
All that can be found of tVhe
southern sea otter is a small herad
of about 300 that suddenly turned
up on the California coast.
The future of the reindeer looks
*even worse.
"The last woodland caribou in
Maine was seen in 1908," Jackson
said. "There are now 15 in north-
ern Minnesota. only two of which
are natives." The eastern moose, he
added, is also on tVie way out.
Dugongs and manatees still live
along the Atlantic coast from Flor-
ida to Brazil, but many are wan-
tonly shot, Jackson said.
The wildlife service is also wor-
ried about a shortage of birds-
roseate spoonbill, the prairie chic-
ke.n and the masked bo'bwhte.
"The largest and most magnifi-
cent woodpecker in the United
States. t h e ivory billed wood-
pecker," Jackson lamented. "now
is reduced to a few individuals in
a heavily forested Louisiana tract."

Moat Protected Against Direct Hits
The moat around Castillo San
Marcos at St. Augustine, the oldest
fortification in the United States,
never h.ad more than a foot or two
of water in it. It was dug mainly
for the purpose of letting engineers
build the fort lower into the earth
and to minimize the danger of di-
rect hits upon its -walls. Later forts
used entirely dry moats.

Universal Training Is Still

National Defense Keystone


Should Be Adopted Now To Supplant Selective Service, Says
American Legion; Other Proposals To Strengthen
United States Security Are Offered

The immediate enactment of universal military training to
supplant selective service, which ends on March 31, was urged
by the American Legion national defense committee as part
of a comprehensive security program drafted during a four-
A t ,- f ... ,,nce in 1VaslhI1voto


D. C.. ending on January 26.
Another product of the confer-
ence was the reco'mmend'lationr that
congress terminate the emergency
war pe. iod.
Legion officials frankly explained
these proposals were aimed at fo-
cusing action on universal military
train gii'. Dissolution of the draft,
a war-time measure only, would
clear the air for undivided treat-
ment of peace-time universal mnili-
taiy training, they said.
These recommendations featured
a committee report prepared ol-1
lowing discussions with the na-
tion's foremost military and secur-
ity authorities.
The committee's report, submit-
ted to Legion National Commander
Paul H. G:iffith, was sharply criti-
cal of general antipathy toward
the nation's defense requirements
and made a score of proposals
for revitalizing tihe country's over-
all security program.
Orne of these was a request for
legislation which would impose se-
vere pnis!hmenrt upon any person
revealing any secrets affecting na-
tion',.l security, even though such
rel].'ion was made without the
intention of disturbing the nation's
security.
Opposition to any slish iln wiar
anl1 navy department appropria-
tions was reflected in : re-solution
calling upon congress for 'approval
of budgets submitted by the reiu-
a-"' miitn'y er iallishmeints.
Commander Griffith said that
one of tthe problems subjected to
the most minute examination dur-

ian defense.
"The complacent attitude of an
uninformed p public," h e warned,
"is inviting disaster. Civilian de-
fense and protection must be de-
veloped now to an infinitely higher
degree than it was during the war.
It will be the industrial centers of
this nation which will be the first
target of scientific, lgihtning at-
tacks. An incredible amount o0
death and destruction would be
le't in the wake of such attacks on
civilian areas."

'KEEP GREEN' BUILDS PAYROLLS
There's a dollar and cents reason why every
resident of Gulf county and Florida should be
interested in the success of the movement to
"Keep Florida Green." This statement goes,
double,for the landholders of the state who,
collectively, own almost all of Florida's 23,-
000,000 acres of woodlands.,
The South, Florida included, has harvested
nearly all of its original virgin timber. Now
we are approaching the day when the same
thing can be said of the nation as a whole. In
other words, we must grow the timber we
need, for all purposes.
In 1944 Florida's total final value of the
manufactured products from the timber indus-
try amounted to $102,000,000, which brought
the woodland owners $12,000,000 for stump-
tge. This amounts to one-eighth of the total
return of the forest, while the other seven-
eighths, or $90,000,000, went to pay wages.
equipment maintenance, handling, hauling.
processing and taxes-$42,000,000, or almhnost
half of the $90,000,000, went for wages.
We must keep this industry growing rather
than killing it off ourselves. That means we
must employ proper forest management. Yet
no plan of management of forests can succeed
in the face of forest fires. We must stop bel-
ing careless with forest fires in our wooded
areas. By keeping uncontrolled fires out of our
woodlands we can "Keep Florida Green." Then
'we are helping to produce raw materials for
-the industries which provide so many jobs.
The capacity of this country to grow all the
wood it needs has been amply demonstrated.
Florida can easily become a leading state in
wood production and wood utilization, but only
if we remove this obstacle of forest fires.
Eighteen states have inaugurated "Keepl)
Green" programs with outstanding success.
Florida has now inaugurated the program and
will make it a success. One of the fine steps
in aiding to make the program a success inl
CGulf county was the planting of acreage to
pine seedlings by the Port St. Joe Boy Scout
troop, which will aid in teaching- the coming
generation the principles of reforestation and
the whys and wherefores of forest manage-
ment. WVe hope the idea will be taken up by
other Boy Scout troops throughout Florida
and the entire South.

Senator Claude Pepper sends us a weekly
letter, which, by the way, goes out under his
franking privilege as a member of the senate,
thus saving him postage, and while it always
ends up in the wastebasket, we do look it
over before tossing it aside. I lere lately we
sort of read between the lines and it is obvious
that Claude is doing his darndest to keep the
Republicans from peering too closely at war-
time deals in whIich he was mixed up in with
war profiteers, such as the St. Johns Shipyard,
Eglin Field (remember that paving job?). the
Atlantic Coast 'Line and others.

What this country needs is socks guaran-
teed for 10,000 miles.

VIGILANCE STILL PRICE OF LIBERTY
SFeb'uaryv is the month in which fall the
birthdays of (George \Vashington and Abrahall
iLincoln,l .\ ericals losee fame is not only
national, but world-wide.
In his day, W\ashington found it inecessar y
tI lead the nation .to independence, and 10und
it ai tvi>llc to warn the people againllst certain
f,orign1 i ll lcu ccs and the infiltration of cer-
tail foreign idegnl gies--includting the sugges-
ti(n that then 'nitcd States become a monarchy
with liimnself as its first king.
ljnclu. ll11 the other hand, found it neccs-
;uI-v ti lead the federal government in a time
M greata t (diiinctic strife alld internal war eare,
aitd lto pintt the way by which the wounds ofr
a.:it greitt war could lcst lbe treated and
'calid. It \\as a great miisfortune to both the
.rt,1th and tthe South that lie was assassinatedI
and the whole nation thus deprived of his
kindlv and humane leadership at a time when
it was most needed.
It is pertinent, in this modern time when an-
other type of foreign ideology is attempting,
by infiltration, to rob this nation of those very
things which have made and kept it great, that
a warning by Washington be again called to
the attention of all .\Americans. WVe quote:
"Against the insidious wiles of foreign influ-
ence, the jealousy of a free people ought to
be constantly awake, since history and experi-
ence prove that foreign influence is one of the
most baneful foes of republican government."
Our \Washington observer calls attention to
some of the infiltration into government of
communists which Ihas been discovered. 11e
declares that communism is becoming increas-
fngly less popular, and the effort to purge
government payrolls of communists is hecom-
in-g increasingly more effective. These efforts
should not cease until -every "commy" and
"fellow-traveler' in a government job is re-
moved from it--and steps taken to see that no
new ones are added. There should be no per-
mitted "boring from within" the government
itself. -National Legionnaire.


LIFE IN THE SLAVE STATE
The trouble now brewing in England with
its attempt at a mild socialistic-type govern-
ment takiilg over many basic industries should
cause us all to ponder at momllient over this
paragraph from iW. 1'. '\ hitle's recently pub-
lished "Report on the l'oils": "In the slave
state a man is told where and h(,w to live and
work, when and fori whom to vote,. when to
cheer and when to boo, and when to scream
hludly that his land is the freest and most
democratic on all the globe."
The "slave states" did not disappear with
the defeat of Germany, Italy and Japan. They
survive throughout the world, and some of
them are powerful nations. They talk of "se-
c'uritvy"-which simply means a license to push
people around. They prate of their own brand
of "democracy"--which in all essentials is no
different from nazism. They shout for the
rights of workers--and they treat the worker
as a tool. to be used and .discarded as the
whims and exigencies of the moment mnay de-
termine.
Super-states inevitably become slave states.
All-powerful government inevitably turns into
oppressive government. If the American peo-
ile have learned nothing else, modern history
should hive taught them that grim fact. The
threat to liberty from within is greater, more
ominous, than the threat from without. The
greatest truth of this age is that those whoi
temporize with freedom by sanctioning cen-
tralized, socialistic government, lose freedom.
And if you don't believe us, just keep your eve
on events in England.


The government might get over a policy if
they would advertise it like cigarets and tooth-
paste are advertised.

What jumps out of reach quicker than a
promising future?

TO THE EDITOR


Editor of The Star:
The death of Ted. Morris and
now the passing of 'J. G. Bright
constituted a distinct loss to Port
St. Joe. It was my privilege andt
,\xti'reie good lfoitune to work iln-
iler Mr. Bright anil with Mr. Mor-
ris for a inuitliter of years and,t
evei atf o v seov iiig 7my coiinectiol
wit th ti' companies1 in iwiich they
played such a prominent and un-
dsrstanding part, to have con-
tinued the association and frieni-I
ship to a limited degree.
lMr. .Morris and Mr. Bright were
ivery closely associated in plans for
continued, development and better-
ment of Port St. Joe. Theirs were
understanding minds and nearts,
antd while no reflection is meant
on those wiho have succeeded' or
will sturceed them, this is merely a
humble if stumbling attempt on the
part of one who knew and appre-
ciated, them to pay tribute .to them
and the wonderful results they left
behind them. For they were big
.einI in every sense, but never the
type to belittle honest effort of
-bose under them.
May we all join the hope there
will be more men like these withI
the company in which all of us
here in Port St. Joe are so vitally
interested.
Thos. R. L. Carter.

along with his hands in his pockets
looking mighty cold. I said to him:

snow, ice and zero temperatures,
but they just bring out the snow

c:tion. or the deficit must be pro-
vided for by inw taxes.
"No expenditure should be con-
sidered unless t'he money is surely
in sight or the proposal is tied to
ai plan to raise tle revenue uand
pay the bill."
IH said that "we will not have
.111 accurate picture before us for
another two or three weeks, but in
the light of present information I
think it is likely that we can in-
crease our disbursements by some
twenty or twenty-five million dol-
lars per year without, more taxes."
Referring to county requests, the
governor said. "I regret that' it
does not appear feasible at this
time to turn into road work the
proceeds of the seventh cent gaso-
line tax now being used for schools
and general purposes. As a mattel
of governmental policy, I am colln-
vinced that gasoline taxes should
go into highways, and I had hoped
that we might, during my adminis-
tration, adopt that course.
"I had hoped also that we might
abandon to the cities certain state
revenue sources but, for the same
reason. I do not see how these
sources can be abandoned unless
the substantial loss in state reve-
nue is 'replaced by some substitute
levy."
(Don't think, dear readers, that
Ye Ed sat in front of the radio and
jotted down the governor's re-
marks. Far from it! He was kind
enough to send us a mimeographed
copy of his speech before lie made
it. If anyone wants to read it in
full. jilct drop in at The Star offtic-
and draw up a chair.)
