THE STAR IS THE OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER FOR GULF COUNTY THE STAR "Port St.. Joe -The Outlet Port for the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee Valley" VOLUME XII PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA,'FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1949 Mystery Revenue Raiser Is Revealed By Tax Committee Will Place Three Per Cent Levy On Transactions, Services, Rentals As a result of Governor Fuller Warren's invitation to finance and taxation representatives of both houses to sit down with him and confer on the problem, of financing the state, the .special committee of seven, which last week had given out subtle hints as to what form the proposed revenue-raising bill would take, late Monday afternoon revealed their brain child, which Governor Warren has stated he will sign if the legislature pauses it. The proposal is in the form of four bills offering a comprehensive finance program designed to bal- ance the state budget, provide re- lief for cities and .property taxpay- ers and furnish money for better schools and other institutions. It may sound like magic-but that's what the men say it will do. One of the bills would levy a 3% tax on transactions, rentals, admis- silons and services, but the com- mIfftee stated that the measure con- tains such broad exemptions it can- not lfe classified as a sales tax. Groceries, medicines and cotton .clothingwould be exempt from the tax. Services covered would luc lude all personal ervij-e.s landrims., garages, rest- iiranrfs r 'bui; services advertisingg agencies, sign painters, etc.) and professional ser- yices (doctors, lawyers, etc.); the tax on theater, night-club and sport admissions would exempt admis- sions under 40 cents. Rentals up to $50 a month are specifically (Continued on page 6) -_-----___ PORCH DINER TO OPEN JUNE 1 AT BEACON HILL Something new will be added at Beacon Hill ney:t Wednesday, June 1, when Mrs. Chuck Gibson opens "Mrs. Chucks Porch Diner."

Car Now Resembles Coat of Many Colors Joseph's coat of many colors had nothing on Grady Manasco's 1898 car The Star has been en- deavoring to have painted green by popularfdemand and by pub- lic donations of paint. However, the green theme has been dropped, and Grady is tak- ing any color paint. Right now, for instance, the car has one dark red and one pea green front fender, one orange headlight and one orchid headlight, a white hood, and an aluminum grill. Another rare adjunct, probably found in no other car, is a choice spiderweb draped across one cor- near of the windshield. In refer-' erice to this matter, Grady said: "I just hate to disturb permanent tenants, even if the rent control laws have been lifted." The car still has a.couple of fenders, doors and the top yet to be painted, so anyone having any spare paint is urged to give it to Grady immediately. ii8iu l 1iiiinilii nlU iiiitiullii lllfimiUnllIllIIlliilllll lh New Automobile Law Eliminates 'Free Ride' After July 1 Car Drivers Will Be Responsible for First Accident Attention of the motoring public is called by The Star to the fact that Florida's new automobile fi- nancial responsibility law will be- come effective July 1. The new law, enacted by the 1949 legislature and signed by Governor Fuller Warren, makes an automo- bile driver responsible for damages caused in an accident, and settle- ment of damages must be made and proof of financial responsibil- ity must be established or the driver's license may be suspended. The new law provides greater. safety and financial security for the public by eliminating the "free ride" provision in the original law. That law required a driver at fault in an accident in which injury to person or property damage of $50 or more occurred to show financial responsibility for some future acci- dent, but did not require settlement of damages in the first accident. Most automobile drivers who want to obtain liability insurance should have no difficulty. However, in instances where a driver may be considered a bad risk, there will be an "assigned risk pool" by insur- ance companies so that each com- pany will handle a proportionate share of any undesirable risks. 'Any person who has diftWulty in obtiuiiig- insurance may request the insurance agent to submit his -appi--avif (W--tris. osi**+: rislE pool and the :appliaiiciu i ill 're- ceive special attention.

Saints Drop Two Games To Tally Rally In Eighth Brings Hope of Win But Lucky Fielding Foils Locals The St. Joe Saints dropped both games to Tallahassee this week, losing the Sunday game 7-1 -and Wednesday's tilt 3-2. In the Sunday game the visitors made four runs in the second agd three in the seventh, while St. Joe scored the lone run in the ninth when Edwards walked and Anch- ors hit to right field to drive in Edwards. Wednesday's set-to was all in fa- vor of the capital city boys until the eighth, the score being 3 to 0. In the eighth Herring singled and Burke sacrificed him to second. Then Mitchell doubled to the right field fence to bring in the first run. Cox went out on a high fly to cen- ter. and then John Adams singled to bring Mitch in from second. The fans were mighty perked up, and it looked like the Saints might tie the score, but a couple of excep- tional catches by .the Tallahassee players ended all hopes-.

As news of. the citrus victory reached the senate, it took up and approved the conference commit- tee report on the cattle fencing bill, accepting practically the en- tire house bill which makes it il- legal for livestock to roam the pub- lic roads, but turns them loose in the back country. The house is ex- pected to accept the same report. The bill to regulate privately owned electric and gas companies was given approval of the, house appropriations committee and put on. the calendar for possible, action this week. It would put privately- owned gas and electric companies under the Florida Railroad and Public Utilities Commission but would not regulate REA co-opera- tives or municipally owned electric and gas plants.

If a woman .decides she wants to be a juror she must register for prospective jury ser- vices at the county court house. NEW SCOUT EXECUTIVE FOR BAY-GULF DISTRICT Robert H.

Remember when, not so long ago, some of the highest officials in the federal government were saying that a reimposition of price controls and other such straight-jacket measures were neces- sary if runaway price inflation was to be pre- vented? Do you also remember that, at about the same time, the same high officials were dolefully pre-. dicting that any cut in taxes would also give price inflation a new,shot in the arm and send the indexs booming into the stratosphere? We all know what happened. Luckily for the welfare of the nation, congress refused to re- impose wartime controls. Congress also put a reduction on income taxes into effect. For a considerable period of time the price level changed relatively little-the big inflation- 'ary trend that was forecast didn't appear. Then, TEN YEARS AGO From the Filea of The Star iLegislators Look Over City Mill Members of the state legislature, the Capitol Press Club and their guests, to the number of 150, in- vaded Port St. Joe last Sunday to inspect at first hand the St. Joe Pa- -per Company mill and our rapidly- growing city. They looked over the new Centennial Auditorium, visited 'the constitutional monument and spent several hours inspecting the paper mill. A buffet lunch was served at the Port Inn, after which the visitors toured the city, and many were the expressions of :amazement at the phenomenal ex- pansion and growth of St. Joe. Tolls May Pay Off Canal Bonds U. S. army engineers recently re- :fused to recommend reimburse- ament of $200,000 to Gulf county for construction of the canal connect- ing the intracoastal waterway with the Gulf, although they have recom- mnended that it be taken over by ithe government, widened and deep- a few months ago, prices started down. Re- member the price cuts on cars advertised in The Star? Notice that ad last week for Bendix wash- ing machines? Have you been following prices, in the Boyles and Costin Department Stores ad- vertisements? Prices are going down and will, continue to go down for some time. In some oases, the drops have been very substantial. Meat is a good example of this. Declines of 20 per cent and more in meat prices have been registered since last year's peak. This price drop all along the line was the re- sult of the traditional functioning of the free market. Instead of having a black market, which always flourishes uneer government controls (and we had black markets here in St. Joe) we have had a market which is responsive to the all-powerful forces of supply and demand. It is true that the tax cuts gave more people more money to spend. Along with that, producers in many fields increased their output. Prices found their proper level-as they will continue to do in the future, and perhaps soon we can buy a $1.50 shirt for $1.50 and 40c a pound meat for 40c a pound. The advocates of a regimented economy offer interesting theories-but the hard facts just don't back them up. Benjamin Franklin, in his Poor Richard's Al- manac, back in 1758 had this to say: "It would be thought a hard government that should tax its people one-tenth part of their time, to be em- ployed in its service."

Bill To Increase Old Age Benefits Termed Harsh, Cruel Prank Senator Points Out That 1947 Max- imum Committment Has Not Yet Been Fulfilled The senate last week passed and, sent to the house bills to increase the maximum old age ant blind benefits from $50 to $60 a month, The measure will allow the state to match the $30 now put up by the federal government for welfare benefits. The state contributes only $25. The bills do not make the max- imum benefits mandatory. -?. The old age measure passed with but one dissenting vote, cast by Sen. H. E. King of Winter Haven. King called the bill a. "harsh and cruel prank. to play on the needy old folk;' of Florida. He said he refuses to "further mislead the el- derly people. Our first obligation,is to meet the commitment of 1947 when the aged benefit maximum was upped to $50 per month," he said. Funds have not yet been made available to meet the $50 maxi- mum set by the 1947 legislature.
