Petition To Remove Trains Granted By R. R. Commission Doodlebug To Come Off On- February First; Freight Service Continues Word that the petition of the Ap- alachicotla Northern Railroad Com- pans to discontinue operation of the "Doodlebug" had been granted by the railroad commission was re- ceived too late for publication in The Star last week, and it is with regret that we inform our readers that mail, express and passenger service over the railroad will be discontinued on February 1. In granting the petition of the A. N. to drop Trains 1 and 2 between this city and Chattahoochee, the commission pointed out that prac- tically every point receiving pas- senger service from the railroad was also served by a bus line, and that the average number of passen- gers carried per trip by the "Doodle- bug" had dropped to five and that operation of the trains between St. Joe and Chattahoochee had been' carried on at a loss. In 1945 total revenue from the two trains between this city and Chattahoochee in 1945 was $38,- 917.87. and revenue in the first eight months of 1950 amounted to 521,129.43. Of this amount passed, ger revenue was S1!,529.': in i945 and $1,933.38 for the 'first eight months of 1950.. Net operating def- icits for the same periods, accord- ing to figures submitted by the rail- road. were $1,971.S0 for 1945, and $17,501.19 for the first eight months of 1950. "It is quite apparent from the foregoing tflat the passenger pat- ronage of these trains is insignifi- cant," said the commission, "and that the operation of such trains to furnish this service is not required by the public need." In regard to the handling of mail, (Continued on page 4) Dorothy Pate Extends Thanks for Assistance The fund raised for Dorothy Pate 'to pay her expenses to Pensacola for a greatly needed operation was swelled last Friday by a check for $15 received from W. T. Edwards of Jacksonville, bringing the total to $59.13. Dorothy, who with her mother left Monday for Pensacola, desires to express her heartfelt thanks to everyone for their kindness in help- in gher make this trip, and also de- sires to thank the non-commissioned officers club at Tyndall Field for providing her with a wheel chair. "It has assisted me wonderfully in getting about," says Dorothy, "and is a great aid to my health. "I also want to thank all of those who contributed to the fund to send me to Pensacola for my operation, which has to be successful in or- der to repay those who have aided me. I hope to be able to continue with my ambition to become a tele- phone exchange operator, and if I can, it will be due to the kindness and thoughtfulness of the people of Port St. Joe." ----- ------ Volunteers for Army Ellis John D.

JOE GARDEN CLUB This is tree planting time. The Garden Club is urging everyone to set out trees this year. Since a tree is a long-time investment, consider carefully the size and characteris- tics of a tree before planting. The leaves of camphor trees are poisonous to the soil, and so the leaves should be raked up and burned or thrown away. They cast heavy shade and are voracious feed- ers, so it is practically impossible to grow grass under them. A magnolia planted too near the house can k h li intprinr i f Hi. ST.

PETITION TO REMOVE (Continued from page 1) the commission said that "it is suf- ficient to point out that this is a matter within the exclusive juris- diction of the United States Post- office Department." In regard to express service, one of the most vital services rendered by the railroad to the communities affected, the utilities commission was of the opinion that such ser- vice was needed, pointing out that the seafood industry at Apalachi- cola needs such service to handle oyster, shrimp and crab meat, and that "express service is required for the purpose of getting medicine and drugs to Port St. Joe, as well as Apalachicola, in the interest of the health and welfare 6f the people of such cities." .

"It is plain that no facilities now exist for express service which can be employed in lieu of rail transportation. In t h e circumstances outlined, this commission believes it would be contrary to the public interest to permit applicant to discontinue completely the operation of Trains 1 and 2 without requiring that ap- plicant m a k e arrangements with the express agency for the adequate handling of express." Summary of the findings of the commission, which was voted upon favorably by Chairman Wilbur C. King and Commissioner Jerry W. Carter and opposed by Commis- sioner Richard A. Mack, follows: 1. That the public need does not require the passenger service ren- dered by applicant's Trains 1 and 2 between Chattahoochee and Port St. Joe and the discontinuance of said service by such trains will not be contrary to the public interest; 2. That the handling of mail by said trains is a matter within the jurisdiction of the United States Postoffice Department; 3. That the public need and the public interest do require express service; 4. That applicant should not be permitted to discontinue the opera- tion of said trains unless and until applicant has made proper arrange- ments with the Railway Express Agency, Inc., for the handling of ex- press in a manner that is adequate and compatible with the public in- terest; 5. That applicant should be granted authority to discontinue the operation of said trains effective February 1, 1951. provided that prior to said date the following con- ditions have been complied with fully: (a) That applicant makes proper arrangements with the Rail- way Express Agency, Inc., for hand. ling express in the manner de- scribed in finding 4, supra; (b) That the plan or proposal embody- ing such arrangements be submitted to this commission for its consider- ation and rejection or approval, and (c) That a plan or proposal embody- ing such arrangements shall have received the approval of this com- mission. NOW. In Consideration Thereof. It is ordered and adjudged by the Florida Railroad and Public Utili- ties Commission that the applica- tion of Apalachicola Northern Rail- road Company to discontinue the operation of its trains 1 and 2 be- tween Chattahoochee and Port St. Joe, Florida, be and the same is hereby granted, to become effective on February 1, 1951; provided that prior to said date the conditions specified in finding 5, supra, have been fully complied with.

Our -Country Right or Wrong WE TAKE A BACKWARD STEP It is with a feeling of deep concern that the residents of Port St. Joe and other communities served by the Apalachicola Northern Railroad learn of the decision of the state railroad com- mission to grant the request of the railroad com- pany to discontinue operation of Trains 1 and 2 between this city and. Chattahoochee, thereby doing away with passenger, mail and express ser- vice throughout the area served by the railroad. These services provided by a railroad are and always will be an asset to any area which it may serve, particularly the. mail and express services. The passenger service is not so vital, since the majority of people own cars, and if they are not in this class, have bus service available; We understand the A. N. will continue giving freight service over its line, which, at least, is something, since industry, present and future, in Things Looking Up 6 For Baseball In '51 Panama JCity Sports Writer of Be- lief That Gulf Coast League l Will Be Much Stronger Frank Pericola, sports editor of the Panama City News-Herald, has :this to say regarding the 1951 sea- son of the Gulf Coast League: Plans are afoot for a stronger Gulf Coast Baseball League next :season. Panama City hopes to field a fighting team, and there are indi- cations that the other clubs, Port St. Joe, Apalachicola, Blountstown and, Wewahitchka, have the same idea. Wewa was not overly strong last year, but the folks over by the Dead - Lakes are fine baseball fans and will back their club all the. way. Wewa is the only town without lights for night ball, and this you may be sure will be rectified at the earliest possible moment. The last time we saw a ball game in Wewahitchka was on the occa- sion of the opening of the fishing season and they had gotten Ace Adams (then on organized base- ball's ineligible list for jumping) down to pitch. It was a great battle. .I think St. Joe won, but it was a toughie, and about a thousand fans were on hand. Tallahassee was a road club in the Gulf Coast League last season. If the Capital City isn't represented in the Georgia-Florida loop next season they will have a home park. Otherwise, Tallahassee will prob- ably be dropped from the circuit in favor of another club. I know there is much sentiment here for getting Marianna or De- Funiak Springs into the Gulf Coast cicuit. Marianna would be a natural rival. Visit In Tallahassee Mrs. Joe Johnson and Mrs: E. Y. Cowart visited in Tallahassee on Thursday of last week. Ability to judge foods by taste varies with the age of the taste tester. this section, must have this type of service. Naturally we assume that officials of the A. N. had very good reasons for discontinuing these services, and that the state railroad commission believed they were ample to grant their plea for abandonment, but we believe that both the rail- road officials and members of the railroad com- mission should have taken more into considera- tion the pleas of the thousands of individuals in Lee, drivel of the Saturday morn- in bus t ro Blo ltownl drove his the area served. For nearly half a century the Apalachicola Northern Railroad has served the people along its lines well, through good times and bad, and now "finis" is to be written. It is sad, indeed. LET YOUR HEART MOVE YOUR HAND The March of Dimes gets underway in Gulf county next Monday, January 15. Public response to the annual fund-raising drive of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis in previous years has enabled this hu- manitarian organization to do a magnificent job in meeting the increasingly widespread polio challenge. The need for an enormously successful March' of Dimes this year must be fully understood. Not only was 1950 the second worst polio year on record, but its timing, immediately following the worst year, in 1949, has created urgent financial problems. The patient-care bill alone for the three-year period 1948-50 took more than $58,- 000,000 in March of Dimes funds-exclusive of the millions that went to underwrite research, and education for professional personnel. Right now, In hospitals, homes and clinics throughout the country, there are thousands of boys and girls-and adults, too-who look to the 1951 March of Dimes for continued assistance. They will get the helping hand they need-only if we do our part! vehicle directly into the path of the Apalachicola Northern "doodlebug" at the 5th Street crossing.

The other day we dropped into Cooper's Barber Shop for a shine, and, since we have but one shoe to shine, and being of Scotch-Irish descent we hate to pay "Shine" 10c for one shoe, since the cost of a two-shoe shine is 15c. So it has been our custom, with the co-operation of "Shine," naturally, to match him 25c or nothing (we didn't tell him that we inherited a Leperchaun from our Greatgrand- father Shields, which accompanied him to the U. S. A. from Ireland much against its will, and that in such matters as this the Leperchaun sees to it that we will win consist- ently). Anyway, when he finished our shine we told him to go ahead and toss his "lucky" nickel. But he refused, saying he'd match us some other time. ... Then it dawned on us. Deputy Sheriff Marvin Freeman was in the shop. and "Shine" was afraid he'd be picked up for violat- ing the gambling laws. ... We told Marvin that he'd have to arrest us both, tossed a quarter into the air and told "Shine" to call it. He CLASSIFIED ADS FOR RENT WANTED-A single man or couple to share furnished apartment.
