THE STAR IS THE OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER FOR- GULF COUNTY THE STAR "TRADE AT HOME" SPEND YOUR MONEY WITH LOCAL MERCHANTS AND GET ANOTHER SHOT AT IT "Port St. Joe -The Outlet Port for the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee Valley" VOLUME XII PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA, FRIDAY, JUNE 3, 1949 NUMBER 36 Women of Moose To Be Formally Instituted Local Order Will Be Taken Into National Organization Sunday The Star has been advised by Mrs. Sue Roberts, senior regent of Women of the Moose, Port St. Joe Lodge No. 1093, that the local: or- der will be formally instituted into .Ahe national organization on Sun- 'day afternoon, June 5, t. 2 o'clock, Sthe ceremony to take place at the i Moose Hall on Reid Avenue. Mrs. Sadie Warren, senior regent. :-of the Panama City W. 0. M., as- sisted by a well-trained ritual team -. from that order, will preside at the institution, and she states she will head a caravan from Panama City containing at least 20 members.and -their husbands. Twenty-five memn- bers of the local order are expected' to be inducted at the ceremony. After completion of the institu- tional ceremony, a covered dish supper will be served during the in- fprmal "get acquainted" hour." Members of the Loyal Order of Moose, of whatever lodge, are in- vited to attend and to bring their wives. ___^----- Solons Vote Selves Out of Campaigning for Office Governor Warren last week put his signature on a bill last week which prevents coercion of public -employes and officials by office- holders and candidates. The act provides, among other,-thtogs, that- -no elected officer can take part in :any political campaign." And were faces red in the senate ,and house, fori the lawmakers Sat- iirday awoke to the fact that the law would prevent them and other -officials from running for re-elec- tion or for any other public office. Rep. Dick Simpson of Jefferspn, who sponsored the bill for the ad- ministration, sheepishly asked the house to pass the measure again with an amendment which would put them back into politics. The amended bill, which was passed in record-breaking time, allows office- holders to participate in their own - campaigns for re-election or for ,election to other offices. It was also repassed by the senate as amended. FIVE BUCKS OFFERED FOR BIGGEST BREAM Glenn Boyles can think of more doggone ways to get people into his stored than anyone we know. This week he's offering $5 for the biggest bream or shellcracker brought into the store. You don't have to leave the fish with him-- he'll just measure and weigh it. For more details see the classi- fied column on the back page. Gets Higher Accounting Degree Paul K. Johnson, son of Mrs. Fannie B. Johnson of this city, has been awarded his B.S. degree in higher accounting by the Bowling Green College of Commerce, Bowl- ing Green, Ky.

Revival Services To Open Sunday At Methodist Church Two Ministerial Students Will Conduct Preaching and Singing Revival services will begin at the Methodist Church next Sunday, June 5, and continue daily, morn- ing and evening through Friday, June 10, according to the Rev-. L. W. Tubb, pastor. The youth of the church are sponsoring this year's revival and have secured the services of two ministerial students from Birming- ham-Southern College, Birmingham, Ala., to do the preaching and lead the singing. They are the Revs. Ray Shubert and Gene Atkins and will alternate with the preaching and leading the song services. "This team of young ministers has been chosen because of their outstanding activities in the work of the church, and Port St. Joe will be blessed by having them here," said Rev. Tubb. The young people of the Metho- dist Church urge the youth of other churches to join with them in this revival, and the pastor and young people request all members of the church to exert every means to the end that the church and the city might receive a lasting blessing from each of these services. Servjqes .will be held each -eve- ning at 8 o'clock. Time of the morn- ing services will be announced. ---. --- ----- House Votes Compulsory Action On Tuberculosis The house Tuesday passed a sen- ate bill which would be used to force the hospitalization. bf persons infected with tuberculosis and who may pass on the disease to others. Under the act, a county judge would have authority to appoint a three-member board to investigate persons believed to be infected with tuberculosis. The board would con- sist of two doctors and a layman. The judge, after receiving the re- port of the board, could order the diseased person to be hospitalized or submit to medical treatment necessary to arrest or cure his in- fection.

House Votes Cigaret Tax for Sanatoria A bill which would add another penny tax on each package of cig- arets to raise money for the con- struction of tuberculosis sanatoria in Florida was, passed Wednesday by the house 68 to 9 and sent to the senate. Rep. George Tapper of this city secured permission to take up the measure out of its regular order. He stated that bills already have been enacted authorizing construc- tion of sanatoria at Lantana, Drew Field and Marianna, "but unless we provide the money, those bills have the same effect as writing a check with disappearing ink," he warned. , George said tubercular patients all over the state were "looking anxiously to this legislature to give them relief." Funds had been ap- -propriated at previous sessions but they were not released by the bud- get commission. The extra cigaret tax would raise about $6,600,000 for the biennium, and the budget commission would have no control over it. -K~ FLAGS ARE SCARCE IN CITY ON MEMORIAL DAY A quock look up and down Reid Avenue Monday by the editor saw but three flags displayed by busi- ness establishments marking Me- morial Day. Those we saw were in front of the Lawson rooming house, the Leader Shoe Shop and the St. Joe Bar. There probably were a few more in other sections of the business district, but we didn't have time to check thoroughly. REV. JOHNSON PINCH- HITTING FOR GRAHAM While Rev. Lee Graham is out of town for the next two weeks, Rev. R. P. Johnson will be in charge of St. James Episcopal Church. Rev. Johnson is living at the rec- tory and will carry on all the regu- larly scheduled activities of the church. ____-K---_ Called To Georgia By Illness J. F. Ford and J. F. Ford Jr., were called to Sylvester, Ga., this Legislators Look To Special Session As Time Runs Out Both Houses Working Madly On Revenue and Appro- priation Measures The 1949 legislature took decisive stands on running livestock off the highways, stopping the shipment of green citrus fruit, making flood control a state-wide program, con- tinuing the common school pro- gram unchecked, and expanding of state institutions, but it dawdled so much in the opening days of the session that as we went to press yesterday both houses were work-, ing madly on appropriation and revenue measures, with the spectre of a special session staring them in the face as time runs out, since the major financing of the state had not yet been solved. Both the house and senate have passed appropriation bills, but they vary so greatly that neither body will accept the others' measure, and so, after each house formally refuses to accept the bill of the other chamber, a conference coinm- mittee will be named to effect a compromise. In spite of hell, high water and Governor Warren's threatened veto, it looks as though the people will be stuck with a sales tax, for that seems to be the only thing our legislatof-s have' in minm in the way of raising the extra revenue needed to meet operating expenses of thle state. In addition, bills are on the roster to slap an extra cent tax,on each gallon of gasoline and to put levies on forest products and phos- phate.

Chief of Police Buck Griffin states that Vet Garrett will be back at the city hall next Monday from 3 to 6 p. m. with another jug of serum, and asks dog owners who failed to get service this week to be on hand at that time. Dogs not vaccinated will be dis- posed of according to law, warns Chief Griffin. _____J-- Visitors From Texas Mr. and Mrs. Max Best and chil- dren of San Antonio, Texas, are spending several weeks' vacation at Beacon Hill with Mrs. Best's mother, Mrs. George Ward. -_____-----K-- Spends Week-end With Parents Miss Dorothy Harvey of Atlanta, Ga., spent the week-end here with her parents, Mr.' and Mrs. H.

St. Joe Deserted As Fishing Season Opens Crowds From Out-of-State Flock To Dead Lakes and Wimico Port St. Joe was virtually a de- serted village Wednesday as the fishing season opened, and a can- non fired down Reid Avenue would have hit only a stray dog-or Glemnn Boyles, who was hanging sales no- tices outside his store. Fish camp owners on the* Dead Lakes reported Sunday that their accommodations and boats had all been taken, mostly by out-of-state and out-of-county parties, and that they estimated that at least 2000 anglers would be crowding the wa- ters of the lake opening day. Last year an' estimated 150,0 were on hand, and. according to :statistics compiled by the fish and game com- mission, each caught an average of 13 fish. The 60-day closed season ended Wednesday on the Dead Lakes and Lake Wimico in Gulf county, and Blue Springs and Ocheesee Pond in Jackson county, the only areas in Florida closed to fresh water fishing. -K Saints Manage To Retain Hold On Cellar Position The St. Joe Saints managed to retain their firm hold on the cellar position in the Gulf Coast League by dropping two games to the Pan- ama City Seahawks, the Sunday tilt by a sn huat- .n'd the Wed- nesday game by 7 to 5. Fans and players alike were of the opinion that St. Joe should have won the Wednesday game, played here, but due to a number of er- rors in. judgment. and errors on the field the Seahawks. took the game with two, runs in the ninth. Up to the seventh Panama led 5-2, but in that inning the Saints tied the score and, in reality should have taken the lead had it not been for an error in judgment. T The Saints play at Wewahitchka Sunday, with the Gators coming here the following Wednesday, and on Sunday, June 12, the Blounts- town Buccaneers will invade this city. - SERVICES AT BEACON HILL Rev. S. J. Allen will conduct a service at Beacon Hill every Sun- day evening during the summer at 8 o'clock. Everyone is cordially in- vited to attend these services.

It carries out his campaign promise to the letter and no more. The bill as finally agreed to by senate and house conference com- mittees makes it- illegal for live- stock to be at large on the public roads of Florida. It allows sheriffs and state highway patrolmen to im- pound wandering cows, hogs, mules, horses and other livestock. The house rejected efforts of the state- wide no-fence group to prohibit livestock from running at large anyplace. The senate had proposed that everything be put under fence and thus protect individual prop- erty rights. The cattlemen rebelled against this, and in the end the senate gave in. The cattle fencing law will take effect July 1, 1950, which is a good nine months later than Governor Warren had hoped it might begin to operate. A final, drive by .administration forces pushed through the house the administration citrus bill to raise maturity standards and bring canners under state regulation.' The only change in the bill as it was originally prepared is to allow truckers to haul fruit direct from the grove to the consumer with only a maturity inspection test. Un- der the old law, such fruit also had to go through a packing house and be graded and packed in containers. Canners and makers of concen- trate, a growing new industry, re- belled against being required, to label their products by grade. Ihow- ever, the house insisted and the senate agreed that grade labeling would remain in the bill. " Other provisions of this act are expected to make it more difficult to ship green fruit out of the state to other markets. Fate of the prAupouad .m,?,lical and dental and nur-inLg school for Florida has been decided. In spite of efforts of the big citlit. to attract this new school to one of them, the University of Florida crowd in ;the legislature finally steered it safely to Gainesville. No definite appro- priation has been made for con- struction of buildings or establish- ment of 'a staff, but that is expected to follow. The legislature turned down at- tractive bids from Miami, Jackson- ville and Tampa, each of whom of- fered a large hospital, the ground to build the buildings and the cash with which to start them. Gaines- ville has none of these, but got the nod from the legislature.

Our Country Right or Wrong A ROSE BY-ANY OTHER NAME-- One of the main reasons we voted for Fuller Warren for governor was because during his campaign he shouted loudly, long and vocifer- ously that he would veto a sales tax if one was passed by the legislature. Now he gives his approval to a suggested tax- raising measure which he terms a "transaction tax" and which he states will spread the tax bur- den equitably upon the rich and poor alike. Call it a transaction tax if you will, to us it still smells to high heaven of "sales tax" and is a vicious form of taxation that strikes at the poor man, imposing. a hardship upon him that in- creases his burden in spite of the so-called "ex- emptions" contained in the tax bill. The man with an income of $1000 a year spends practically all of it in making retail pur- chases. The man with an income of say $100,000 a year may spend $10,000 of it in making pur- chases upon which he pays a tax. The little man pays the proposed three per cent upon most of what he has coming in, while the big fellow, bet- ', ter ableto,;-pay it, pa\s oixless thaqn one-teptth of, his income. The man less able: to pay ill pab ing ten to onie a- compared to the man who is more able to pay. Therefore, this "transaction tax" is in reality a a tax on life-an excise tax imposed on the poor man for the right to live and eke out a livelihood. Jt is ',the most burdensome and crippling of all --forms of taxatiori for the poor man, and in the in- :-forms of taxation for the podr man. Unless the clock 'is stopped, today is the last day of this session of the legislature, and if this measure has not already been passed as today's issue of The Star comes out, we urge our legis- lators, in the interest of the welfare of the small wage earners of Florida, not to pass this measure, and should it be passed by today, we urge Gov- ernor Warren to keep his promise to the people of Florida and veto it. All history has proved that local governments, even when they are extravagant, are less waste- ful than the federal government. The federal government now has so many employes that it has grown cumbersome. It takes an army just to keep them paid. So wound up in red tape is the federal bureaucracy that it spends billions of .dollars just checking up on itself. As a result, when Florida pays money into the federal treas- ury for its own use, that money dwindles to only a fraction of itself by the time it comes back to Florida. It is right and proper that those of us who en. joy good health should lend a helping hand to the sick and disabled, but we should be able to work out soaie plan that will see at least half what we contribute go to those really in need in-, stead of to. ablebodied government o\-is i :--ii . Such a plan could be. worked out with our pres- ent structure of relief personnel. But that isn't the main idea at Washington. What they are' looking for is a healthy, self-perpetuating politi- cal organization financed by compulsory contri- butions for all the real workers.-Apollo (Pa.) Netws-Record. Keep smiling-nothing is as bad as it.seems:. ONE-WEAPON DEFENSE?: The action of the secretary of defense in for- bidding the navy to proceed with the construc- tion of a very large aircraft carrier has stirred up many repercussions and will continue to do so. Some think, for instance, that the secretary stretched his proper authority to the breaking point when, in effect, he vetoed a project which congress had approved when it passed the navy's appropriation bill. In any event, the matter goes beyond the question of whether the country is to have this particular carrier or not. The opponents of the ship were mainly air force partisans who argue that if another war comes we will end it in 30 days or so with A-bombs delivered, by land-based aircraft. Before World War II started we were told we could lick Japan in 30 days-we know now the error of that statement. We would all like to.see a war won at the smallest cost in lives and money.'However, if we place all our eggs in the air force basket, what. will happen to us if the theory doesn't work and the bottom of the 'basket falls out? The terrible risks inherent in a one-weapon defense plan should be apparent to anyone. Too, how can we have a first-class defense organization unless every service is permitted to develop the weapons and the techniques which their experience and best judgment deem essen- tial? -The big carrier was simply a- logical step forward in ship' development-a vessel which would be more nearly unsinkable and which would provide a better platform for planes, guns or guided missiles. In these days, a navy which is forbidden to advance its own aviation would be a frail reed to lean upon in time of need. The air force is pushing construction of the new B-36 planes, and it could be that the investi- gation being asked of the purchase of such a large number of this particular type plane may have been instigated by the navy in retaliation for the sabotaging of construction of their big carrier. But however that may be, to blindly place our faith in air force claims which have Soot been proven could be the road to disaster. The over-all printing ;and binding cost for the entire government in fiscal 1948 was $45,000,000,. n4o. including the cost of. distribution, research, editing, typing and other details in preparing the copy for publication. A large portion of this money went for government publications on "Ir- rigation In Australia," "Ancient Water Codes," "Afghanistan's Reclamation Program," "How To Rid Buildings of Bats," 'The, Care of Parrots," "How To Cook Muskrat Meat," "Japanese Fish- ing Terms," "How To Prepare Sable-fish Hash," and hundreds of more similar-,publications that serve only the purpose of keeping hundreds of unnecessary researchers on the government pay- roll. Our congressmen blat of economy. What's needed is to scrap the entire federal government layout and start again from scratch. President Truman still insists on increased in- come' taxes, even though the people are already carrying an intolerable tax burden. If he wants more money for what he considers essentials, he could very easily find the essential money by following the Hoover committee recommenda- tions and by cutting out numerous unnecessary bureaus. Four or five 'billion dollars could be easily saved in this way and still not impair the efficiency of the government. Of course, firing unnecessary bureaucrats would decrease the number of bureaucratic votes, but the taxpayers would get the tax relief so badly needed.-The Greenbush (Minn.) Tribune. A Washington di.pathi says that the govern- ment is "just holding its own" as tax rebates come close to equaling tax revenue. Well, turn . about is fair play. Now the government knows how the taxpayer feels.-Fort Lauderdale News. A scientist states that he has developed a ma- chine that can see through a man. Most married women will wonder why he bothered.
