THE STAR IS THE OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER I 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 XllI PORT ST. JOE, FL-ORIDA, FRIDAY, JANUARY 13, 1950 NUMBER 16 Polio Appeal To Open In County Next Monday Annual, Fund Raising Cam- paign To Continue Thru January 31 A record number of civic and so- cial organizations in Gulf county have united to carry the 1950 March of Dimes campaign through its most crucial test, says Henry Campbell, county director of the March of Dimes committee. The annual fund- raising drive of .the National Foun-. dation for Infantile Paralysis will open next Monday and continue through January 31, ending with a birthday ball sponsored by the Pa-. per Makers Union. Epidemic aid funds of the na- tional foundation, Campbell said, were depleted by 1949's record high infantile paralysis epidemics in which more than 40,000 children and adults were stricken with-the dis- ease. These funds were expended not only in caring for new cases, but in continuing treatment for thousands of patients stricken dur- ing the serious outbreaks of 1948. "We are faced with the 'cer- tainty that about 17,000 victims of 1949 must be cared for during most of 1950, the greatest carry-over case load in the 12-year history of the national foundation,' the March of Dimes county director stated. "That alone calls ,for. a record-brea1ing- campaign. But, further, we must stand ready to help.-iew victims of outbreaks we know will hit many areas next summer-possibly, right here in Gulf county. "When we add to all this', the cost of continuing vital rea;eai': li (Continued on page 10) . Building Permits for Year Total $450,000 Exceed 1948 By $315,907, Indicating. Continued Growth and Expan- sion of Port St. Joe Building permit totals are always indicative of growth and. expansion of any community, and such being, the case, Port St. Joe is still grow- ing-and rapidly-for the total of building permits issued during the past year by the city clerk's office exceeds those of 1948 by $315,901.. During the past twelve months 20 permits were issued for a total of $450,076, as compared with 17 permits issued during 1948 for a to- tal of $134,175, according to Clerk Ben Dickens, who compiled the fig- ures for The Star. Among the larger permits issued were $161,000 for 'the new school plant going up near the Centennial Auditorium, $81,181 for the recently completed municipal building at the corner of Williams Avenue and Fifth Street, $63,425 for the new colored school, $16,970 for the Wim- berly Motor Company building at Monument Avenue and Second, and $13,500 for Welton Roche's building -on Reid Avenue opposite the post- office.

In order to keep pace with the rapid growth of Port St. Joe, the Florida Power Corporation last Friday installed three new transformers at the local substation, increasing the output from 1000 KVA to 1500 KVA. Size of the new 500 KVA units may be seen when the one on rails at the right of the picture is compared to the old 333 KVA unit in the cen- ter. The installation work was done by Bob Taylor and Dick Parrish and their crew, from Winter Park. Efficiency of their work of instal- lation can be realized when power for the city was cut off, for but eight minutes during the change-oyer. Rich Porter, local manager, states that the new units should- take care of the growth of our city for the next two' years. -Photo by Maige.

County Commissioners B. E. Ken- ney Jr., and Jim Daniel, who were elected for two-year terms, are up for re-election, and if returned to office will serve a regular four- year term. As yet we have heard of no opposition in these two races. On the county school board the terms of L. P. Sutton, district 3, and Joe Whitfield, district 5, will expire. No contenders as yet. Other state offices to be filled in- clude two supreme court justices, two members of the railroad com- mission, congressmen from each district, and, membera of the vari- ous party committees.

The speaker challenged the club members to develop better recre- ational a n d educational facilities for the youth of the community in order to decrease the causes for juvenile delinquency. He also ex- pressed the belief that parents could do much toward making the lives of youngsters more abundant by simply taking up more time with them in their search for happiness and enjoyment. An added attraction on the pro- gram were musical selections and several' stunts presented by three boys from the Florida Industrial School at Marianna.

The organizational setup for the 17th decennial census in Florida will include Onumerators directed by crew leaders under the super- vision of district supervisors. Area supervisors will head up the over- all picture. Beginning on April 1, the census takers will assemble facts on popu- lation, homes and farms. Eight dis- trict offices will 'be set up in the state-at Jacksonville, Orlaado, Mi- ami, Sarasota, Pensacola, Tallahes- see, Tampa and West Palm Beach. Gulf county, along with Calhoun, Franklin, Gadsden, Jackson, Jeffer- son, Leon, Liberty and Wakulla, will come under the Tallahassee district office, which will employ 13 district office workers, 11 crew leaders and 155 enumerators, for a total of 179. Personnel for the district offices will not be employed until a few weeks before the counting job be- gins April 11, and no enumerators will be hired until late March. The nose-counting is expected to take about two weeks in. the urban areas and about a month in the rural sections. Agriculture forms will be sent to farmers in advance by mail and the completed forms will be picked up by the enumera- tors when they come around to ask the questions on population and housing. The result will not be known for some time. It is now planned to submit the official population fig- ures for each of the states to the president on December 1, 1950. It will be December 31, 1952, before all reports analyzing the census picture in detail are completed. The 1940 census showed Florida had a population of 1,897,414. It has increased heavily since then, how- ever, and a recent estimate showed the state will be able to have seven instead of the present six congress- men. Oldsters Most Likely To Be Traffic Victims Due To Fact They Do Not Allow the Time To Cross Street That Their Slower Pace Demands "Pedestrians who are 65 years or older are 11 times as liable to be killed in traffic as persons between the ages of 25 and 44," Director H. N. Kirkman of the Florida High- way Patrol said, in stressing the necessity for elderly people to be extra cautious in crossing streets. "Reasons for this appalling pe- destrian death rate among our old- sters are that they do not allow the time to get across the street that their slower pace demands, that they sometimes try to hurry and fall in front of approaching ve- hicles, and that they do not watch carefully enough for approaching cars," Kirkman explained. "Too frequently, elderly people depend upon vehicles to slow down or stop for them," he said, "not re- alizing that the driver may not see them or may not be able to stop in time to avoid hitting them."

JOE, GULF COUNTY, FLORIDA' State Retailers Assn. Says Warren Attempts 'Purge' of Legislature Avers Governor Inappropriately Se- lected Holiday Season To Sep- arate Sheep from Goats "Throwing discretion and sports- manship to the wind, Governor Ful- ler Warren inappropriately chose :the holiday season to attempt a purge of the Florida legislature," says a special bulletin received this week by The Star from the Florida State Retailers Association. "The governor's separation of the 'sheep from the goats' was indeed a classic blunder," the report to 6000 retail- ers in the state declares. "Purges and the theory that the king can do no wrong are foreign to the American way of life," the bul- letin continues. "It was a sad day when they became a part of the Florida political scene. The right to honest differences of opinion is still a precious American heritage." Titled "A Purge By Any Other Name Smells Just As Bad," the bul- letin declares that the governor's radio address of December 26 dis- closes that he keeps two lists of legislators-his approved list and "the other one." "Inasmuch as his address is its own worst indict- ment, we are reproducinig it for wide distribution," adds the bullet- tin. "Casting aside all other consid- erations, including greater effici- ency and economy in state govern- ment operation, the governor's in- dictment of 16 senators and 39 rep- resentatives was based on only one issue. Most of these legislators are men who, unlike the governor, had made and then KEPT their pledges to the people of Florida. Many of them held the conviction that busi- ness-like administration of affairs of the state should precede addi- tional tax burdens." The association's message to the merchants of Florida made special mention of the fact that all May primary candidates for the legisla- ture, seeking election or re-elec- tion, must declare themselves and qualify by not later than January 31.

Described as "Packed with value and ready to prove it," the new Plymouth was characterized by D. S. Eddins, president of Plymouth, as "The greatest car value we have ever offered the public." "When we speak of value," Ed- dins said, "we mean that we have combined beauty with sensible styl- ing, that we have achieved big-car performance with small-car econ- omy, and that the mechanical ex- cellence of which we have always been proud has maintained its high level."

Thirty- two per cent larger than on pre- vious models, the new rear window for the gauge dials, speedometer, radio dial and clock. The gunmetal finish is also used on the radio grille screen. There are larger ro- tary switch knobs which are easier to operate. Features for performance, com- fort and safety which were pre- viously introduced in the Plymouth line have been retained. The car has characteristic interior roomi- ness. ample head and leg room and wide, deep chair-height seats. The six-cylinder, 97-horsepower engine has a 7 to 1 complession ratio.

JANUARY '13, 1950 THE STAR, PORT ST. JOE. GULF COUNTY, FLORIDA Writer Says Florida Has Best Racing Law In the United States Points Out It Gives Specific Benefit To Practically Everyone In State Because it ear-marks the reve- nue for the counties and the ola age pension fund, "Florida has one of the most equitable and intelli- gent racing laws in the country." This opinion on the Florida racing law is expressed by one of the na- tion's leading sports writers, George Krehbiel, in a series of articles in the Detroit News. The Florida law "gives specific benefit to practically every person in the state," writes Krehbiel. "Thousands of Floridians, who have never seen a horse race derive heavy financial' benefit from the races, and they have come to look forward to this annual harvest of racing tax dollars as important in their lives in the communities in which they live." There are four horse tracks ini Florida. Hialeah and Toopical Park are located in Dade county, Gulf- stream in Broward, and Suansine Park is in Hillsborough. "Yet these three revenue-producing counties, receive no more revenue from the racing tax dollars than do the other 64 counties, regardless of their populationn" it is pointedout in the articles. "The funds allotted to counties' are divided equally among all 67 counties.". Of every dollar wagered at Flor- ida horse tracks, five cents goes to the old-age pension fund, and three cents to -the counties. Each county .j,dcides as to how its racing reve-' nue-which totaled .l2A.40 last year -will be used. lHearing To Be HeldlNixXt. SWednesday on Appeal of A. N To Kill Doodlebug Since no notice of further post- ponement of the hearing before the railroad and public utilities com- mission of the application of the Apalachicola Northern Railroad Co. to discontinue operation of the "Doodlebug" in passenger and ex- press service has been received, we take it for granted that it finally will be held next Wednesday at 10 a. m. in the court house at Ap- alachicola. A number of interested citizens of Port St. Joe have expressed their intention of attending the ringg to protest disconltinuance of service and they will also carry with them a petition bearing a lengthy list of names. Representatives of other com- munities served by the railroad will also be on hand.

Residents of City In Tizzy Over New Cars Now On Display Here Hordes of Prospective Purchasers Dashing Frantically Up and Down Automotive Row New car.addicts of Port St. Joe and vicinity have been in a heady whirl all this week trying to keep up with the new 1950 model cars on display and checking the new improvements. Getting a slight jump on competi- tors was the Wimberly & Barrier Pontiac Company, which had one of the new Pontiacs on display the previous week. Then came the McGowin Motor Company with the new Dodge line, followed with announcement of the new Plymouth, which' was put on display yesterday. C. R. Garraway had the new line of Chevrolets for customers to look over last Saturday, ,and parking space in front of his car emporium was at a premium. And, of course, Otto Anderson's Ford dispensary was open as usual, although the new Fords came out some time back. Out at the M. G. Lewis & Sons Garage on the Panama City high- way Hilton Lewis has been proudly displaying the new line of step- down Hudsons, not to mention the International Truck line. All in all, it has been a busy week for those car owners and mebbe-so car owners who like to keep up with what's new in the automotive line. POLIO APPEAL (Continued from page 1) and the educational programs of the national foundation, it becomes clear that only a united community effort can boost the March of Dimes to a total sufficient to do a job al- most twice as big as ever before." The challenge will be met in Gulf county, Campbell predicted, even as it.has inpast years. The coin collectors this year are in the form of miniature iron lungs. "When we fill these miniature res- pirators," said Campbell, "we help to empty the real iron lungs."
