JOE, FLORIDA, FRIDAY, MARCH 18, 1949 NUMBER 25 Health Board To Seek New Laws From Legislature One Would Require Yearly Vaccination of Dogs Against Rabies The Florida State Board of Health will ask the legislature to require that all dogs in the state be vaccinated against rabies. It -will also request laws which would make birth certificates confidential .and allow suburban areas to form sanitary districts to provide them- -selves with water systems and sewage disposal facilities. It will also ask that its appropri- tion for diabetes control and pur- -chase of insulin be increased from $20,000 to $60,000 a year. The vaccination law is needed, the board said, because rabies has increased by more than 50 per cent in Florida since 1946. One human case and 332 animal cases were re- ported last year. It added enough is known about rabies to "control and finally eradicate it." Several na- tions already have the disease un- der control. The board recommended annual -vaccination- of pets and hunting 4ogs8 and the- picking upt of strays- -and unvaccinated dogs. All treated dogs wouldctwear tags showing they 'had been vaccinated.d The boost In thae diabetes control appropriationL- will b.e asked due to, an increase in the number otfpez7- . ons-with the disease aQtda greater demand for free insulin.

A. McGowin happy! Designers have achieved a "com- mon sense" streamlining of the new models in which ease of handling, safety and comfort have received strong consideration. The fenders, which blend perfectly into body' lines, are nevertheless separate and detachable, thus avoiding sheet metal masses so costly to repair or replace. Increased visibility is provided in the windshield, Which is 37 per cent larger, and the rear window, which is 35.4 per cent larger. Sedan seats are wider and deeper both in front and rear. The width of both cushions has been. increas- ed with panels and arm rests so- located as to take maximum ad- vantage of the interior space, and.

Damage was small. We -forgot to mention the fire Saturday night of last week that destroyed the garage' of Ralph Swatts.

Churches To Unite In Taking Offering. For World Relief Plans Are Announced for Unprece- dented Demonstration On Sunday, March 27 Over 76,000 churches represent- ing every major Christian denomi- nation and communion have united to take one simultaneous offering for world relief at church services on Sunday, March 27, according to a statement issued by the Port St. Joe Ministerial Association. Whole-hearted, nation-wide sup- port for this history-making effort of churches in America is urged in the statement, as follows: "Never before in the history of the world have the churchesof Eu- rope and Asia been faced with greater problems and responsibili- ties. The fate of our civilization may lie in the ability of the churches, and especially churches overseas, to meet their responsi- bilities in carrying forth the Chris- tian ministry. That is why this nation-wide united effort has an importance far beyond the practi- cal goal 6f fund raising.

Big Bass Landed On Fish Stringer If you can't catch 'em with a hook and line, catch 'em on your fish stringer At least that's the way A. S. Johnson and David Mims seem to figure it. These two gentlemen were fish- ing in Depot Creek Wednesday afternoon of last week and had caught four small bream, which they had placed on a makeshift stringer of fishing line with a small twig tied on the end. Suddenly they noticed a com- motion beside the boat-and lo, and behold, a large bass had struck at the still alive bream and th.e stick on the end of the stringer had lodged in his gills. When we heard the story the bass had grown to a weight of 9 pounds 2 ounces, but verifying this oddity, Mr. Johnson informed us it weighed .but 5/4..poulds. .HIlllllllflllll tUililIIliilllllliilliIHttH Il Junior Woman's Club Benefit Show Thursday-Friday Variety of Scenes Featured In 'Laff It Off,' With Local People Making Up Cast The community show, "Laff It Off," using a cast of more than 70 local people ranging in age from 3 to 93 years, will play next Thurs- day and Friday nights at the high school auditorium under sponsor- ship of the Junior Woman's Club. "Laff It Off" is called the big newspaper revue where the head- lines come to life. Local folks im- personate famous columnists and give the low down on what happens behind the headlines. The show moves continuously from one scene to another, just as a person read- ing a newspaper turns from one section to another. The audience at times is asked to participate in the program. This show is a new idea in home talent technique, for it brings the audi- ence into participation with char- acters on the stage. Coach Marion Craig will take the part of Mr. John Q. Public and Mrs. B. H. Dickens will be his wife. These two introduce each scene as they read their newspaper.

During his campaign for election President Truman whooped and hollered about the 80th congress, calling it a "do-nothing congress." It begins to look like Mr. Truman sorta got him- self out on a limb, for the present 81st congress begins to look like a "do-less" congress. As far as we can find from the Congressional Record, which comes over The Star editorial desk every day, the present congress has passed just three bills. One affected the state of the na- tion. One raised the salary of the president, vice- president and speaker of the house. One declared a two-day holiday for federal workers during the inauguration. Of course, what got High Hat Harry into the jam he's in was his desire to force upon an un- willing people his "civil rights" program, and as a result he's taking a beautiful licking at the hands of Southern Democrats and enlightened Republicans. Harry could come right out and admit that hes beaten on his civil rights program, but we doubt very much that he will do so. He will con- tinue to crack his whip and demand that eveiy- one kowtow td" his whinms, but it ;'. n t get himn any place fast, for the American people' don't care to be driven-and we believe we can safely classify our congressmen and senators up there in Washington as people. We've mentioned it before, this matter of mer- chants parking their cars in front of their places. of business and leaving them there all day. They don't seem to realize that they're hurting their own business. The editor personally has started: for a particular store to buy something, but find- ing no place to park has gone on to another store handling the same article-one that happened to have a vacant parking- space, generally down near the intersection of Reid Avenue and Fifth Street. Perhaps it isn't important, we wouldn't say, since we're off here on a side street where cars seldom park, but we've heard a lot of women speak of the parking situation-and, after all, they're the ones who do the most shopping. We should keep 'em happy and contented. We note that practically every paper in this section of Florida has signed up with a concern that takes pictures of youngsters and furnishes the papers, without cost, cuts to be used in the paper. The promoter of this scheme came into The Star office last week and endeavored to sign us up on his proposition, but we turned him down cold. He cajoled and wheedled, pointing out to us that it would increase our circulation, create good will and that loving parents would treasure copies of The Star having the pictures of their youngsters in them. All he would get out of it would be the sale of photographs.: We blandly told him that we didn't fall for such sucker propositions, and that if he wanted to come into Port St. Joe to take pictures, that was his business and that the advertising columns of The Star would be open to him, but we'd be dog- goned if we'd furnish him free advertising for the promotion of his racket. To the publishers of those papers who fell for this "snow bird" pro- motion we say, "Hello, Sucker." The editor of The Star isn't alone in his cen- sure of President Truman for using language un- fitting a gentleman over the air. The New York city council drew up a resolution censuring the president for the use of language which sets a bad example to the youth of theocity (we should, tp-,1.,1" take into consideration the fact that N-. Y.- i is D.:'. ~'.s state). Aywvay, here's the gist of it: "Resolved, that the city council of the city of New York expresses its sorrowful disap- proval of the disparaging remarks of President Truman, calls upon the congress of the United States to join in this- censure, and calls on the president to apologize to this nation and set an example by his humility to our youth." especially are we proud to show STARDUST and 'emn our new Linotype machine. A STARDU S a d lot of townspeople whom we have MOONSHINE known for the 12 years we've been O SHINE here are just now getting around to wondering how printing is done, Man, oh, man, but this man's and are dropping in. They find, army sure is changed to what it much to their surprise, that we're used to be when we scratched not in league with the devil, that cooties in it. Can you im-n printing is not a matter of necro- aging -the. recruiting officer writing mancy, and that-, after it's explained you nice homey letters after he's to them that there really is nothing signed: -ou up? And more unbeliev- to it. ... However, it's seldom able. can you imagine yourself that a stranger takes such an inter- writing him a letter and telling him how you're getting on? Well, what we've been hearing about the nice things they do for the boys in the service now seems to be corro- borated somewhat by a letter on another page of this issue of The Star written by one of our own boys in Japan to the big cluck who signed him up on the dotted line. . Look for it and read it. We've just finished reading Alex- ander Key's book just off the press, "The Wrath and the Wind," which deals with old St. Joseph and Ap- alachicola back in their lusty and bawdy days when Florida was yet a territory. It's got an inter- esting plot running through it, the greater part of the characters have actually lived and, from our own delving into the history of the an- cient city of St. Joseph, events hap- pened almost as he records them. However, from the language he uses, Mr. Key must think he is president of the United States. We're always proud to have peo- ple come in and look around, and est. We were agreeably surprised, therefore, when a gentleman came in to buy a copy of The Star and expressed a keen interest in print- ing, and especially in our new Lino- type. We offered to show him how a line went through the machine and, in a sly maneuver to learn his name, told him we'd set his name on a slug. So, we found he was Frank E. Green and that he was re- siding at Mexico Beach, and also that in his younger days he used to have a printing press of sorts and a shirt-tail full of type, from which he derived much enjoyment.

The broadcast will close with an appeal from the churches in Amer- ica to the American people to go to church on Sunday morning, March '27, and make there a truly sacrificial gift which will be re- ceived in the name of Christ for all humanity.

He said the legislature will be -asked to 1 -ohibit the taking of oys- ters from public bars in the Apa- lachicola Bay area from April 1 to October 1 and to set aside specific areas for the taking of seed oysters. Dr. Smith, who is serving as di- rector of the program without pay, .said the legislature also will be asked to prohibit the taking of oys- ters less than three inches in length and to close portions of St. Vin- cents' Bar for the planting of shells. Among other officials attending the meeting were Dr. Paul S. Galts- hof.f, research biologist for the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service; Dr. Robert Ingle, assistant director of the cultivation program, and Geo. thishi, state conservation super- visor. HEALTH BOARD (Continued from page 1) e& health distributes insulin but can't afford to buy the drut'. The agency said it will ask the legislature to "provide that the :state registrar shall issue certified copies of all or any part of any vi- tal record only to persons who have a legitimate interest in such rec- ,ords." Main purpose of this change is protection of the individual from unnecessary disclosures of such facts as illegitimacy, unknown par- .entage, adoption and other data -which may cause embarrassment. Such details are a matter of pub- lic record at present and available to anyone. The board suggested is- suance of a "birth registration -card" which would carry the .in- :dividual's name, sex, date and place -of birth, date of filing and birth cer- tificate number. It would "be ade- -quate in the vast majority of cases in which a copy of the birth cer- tificate is now required," the board ,said. Another recommendation would permit use of a single "stillbirth' 'certificate for registration of a still- born child. Stillborn children must be registered now as both births .and deaths. .An act authorizing creation of saxiltary districts will be asked be- cause of "a steady increase in pop- ailation living outside of cities 'where public sanitary utilities are mot available." The board said many Floridians live where no public water supply 'exists and in some areas the high ground water level keeps septic tanks from working properly. The proposed measure would let free- holders set up their own sanitary districts to provide themselves 'with utilities.
