PORT ST. JOE A Progressive Community With a Modern, Progressive Weekly Newspaper ' < THE STAR THE STAR Official Paper for-, Gulf County, Devoted To'the Continued Dqvelopment of the Entire County "Port St. Joe The Outlet. Port for the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee Valley" VOLUME XIV FORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA, FRIDAY, MARCH 30, 1951- NUMBER 27. Cancer Fund Drive Opens Next Month Educational and Service Program Is Carried On By Society To Save Many Lives During the past year 3,6Q9 lives were claimed, by cancer in Florida, which included 10 deaths occurring in Gulf county, according to J. L. Sharit of this city, chairman of the educational and fund raising cru-' ,sade which will be carried on here during the month of April by the American Cancer Society. In making his appeal to the peo- ple of Gulf county to give gener- ously, Mr. Sharit explained that many of these lives were lost need- lessly, and that the American Can- .cer Society is attempting to save them through its threefold program -research, education and service. One-fourth of every dollar con- tributed will pay for research proj- ects which are being carried on in an effort to learn the cause of and cure for cancer. It is through this part of the program that there is hope of finally conquering the dis- ease. Experts in the field say that at least a third of those who die, or 1000 persons a year in Florida. could live if they knew cancer's danger signals and visited their physician at the first warning. The cancer so- ciety is carrying on an educational program in an effort to bring these life-saying facts to the people of the state. A service program is also carried on to aid cancer patients. The so- -ciety g,'.' .- irinr-.. i' aid to 11 elnic-- in the state where treatment is given to medically indigent cancer patients, and volunteer workers per- form many other services for them. "In supporting this worthy cause," said the county chairman, "you will help to save lives. It may be the life of a friend or neighbor. It may be the life of a member of your family -or it may be your own." --'--*---- : Invitational Girls' Cage Tourney Goes To Apalach Apalachicola won the invitational girls' basketball tournament staged in the Oyster City by defeating the Port St. Joe girls Sunday by a 53 to 39 count.

Gulf County Schools Receive Surplus Food Total Value of 'Commodities Dis- tributed To Four Lunchrooms Amounts To $4,164.92 Approximately 1400 children in four schools of Gulf county were benefitted through the distribution of surplus food commodities last year, according to Tom Owens, su- perintendent of public instruction. A wide variety of foods were sent to the board of public instruction from the state welfare board's com- modity distribution division. The welfare board is responsible for the distribution of. commodities pur- chased and made available to the state through the agriculture de- partment's price support program. That is a. function 5-. the- agency prescribed in the state welfare act, along with its program of provid- ing public assistance to the needy aged, blind, and dependent children. The foods are sent to the state without any direct cost and are dis- tributed to schools with lunchrooms and to state and charitable institu- tions. In Gulf county, foods served to school children had a total value of $4,164.92, which included 85 cases of canned tomatoes, 120 bushels of fresh apples, 1500' pounds of dried beans, 1536 pounds of creamery but- ter, 65 cases of canned corn, 12 cases of peanut butter, 836 pounds of frozen turkeys, and smaller amounts of miscellaneous items. "These commodities, have meant a great deal to our school children in making it possible for them to have more nutritious lunches in the school cafeterias without any addi- tional cost to the school system or to the children," said Superinten- dent Owens. $10 ANCHORS COMPLETING TRAINING AT FT.

Taking as his subject 'An Outline of the Problems: Confronting the Next State Legislature," Represen- tative Tapper, comparing local gov- erning bodies with state bodies, cited the wide differences of opin- ion and needs of state'representa- tives in contrast to those of the community.

Youths Reaching 18 Reminded To Register B. W. Eells, Gulf county member of. the Gulf-Franklin selective ser- vice board, reminds young men be- tween the ages of 18 and 26 that they are required to register with him. This applies to all men between those ages, regardless of whether they are ex-servicemen. But, Mr. Eells points out, anyone entitled to an exemption won't be drafted. "We're getting in two or three 18-year-old registrants each week," said Eells, "but a few may not know that the law requires every male to register when he reaches the age of 18 years." But few men have been called up in Gulf county by the board lately, as the number of volunteers has kept ahead of the quota. Bob Gray To Speak At District Legion Meeting Delegates From 17.

Return To Indiana Mr. and Mrs. John Lane and daughter Beth left Tuesday to re- turn to their home in Lafayette, Ind., after spending the spring holi- day here with relatives and friends. Small Employers Urged To Protest Payroll Tax Industrial Commission. Would Slap Three Per Cent Levy On Those Employing One or More If small employers in Port St. Joe don't want a new, 3F/% payroll tax added to their cost of doing busi- ness, they'd better contact Repre- sentative George Tapper and Sena- tor Olin Shivers right now. That's the advice handed out by a repre- sentative of the Port St. Joe Re- tail Merchants Association. The new payroll tax has been of- ficially recommended to the 1951 legislature by the state advisory council of the state industrial com- mission, and all state senators and representatives already have re- ceived recommendations from the commission. The recommendation proposes to broaden the state's unemployment compensation program to include all employers of one or more per- sons in covered business and indus- try and give the industrial commis- sion more money to play around with. At present the program em- braces only- employers of eight or more workers. The industrial commission is also seeking an increase in maximum un- employment benefits of $22 for .20 weeks. It is pointed out by the mer- chants association that liberaliza- tion of the unemployment program will encourage idleness at a time when full. employment is essential to the nation's all-ouft defense ef- fort. Small firms, already. swamped; , .. ; ;. m of ipoyitd. pr-e ia-e, are not equipped to handle this new burden. The average small business man in Port St. Joe already is de- voting 14 to 16 hours a day to his job, and is in no mood for such fur- ther annoyances, especially because his employment situation is fairly well stabilized on a year-round basis. Series of Woods Fires Keep Volunteer Firemen Hopping The St. Joe volunteer fire de- partment has been on the run con- siderably this week taking care of woods fires. The laddies were called out Mon- day afternoon to place under con- trol a flare-up near the A.' P. Wake- field home of a smoldering swamp fire between 16th Street and Wood- ward Avenue where the city has been clearing off undergrowth. At 1:30- p. m. Tuesday they were called out to fight another woods fire that was threatening the boat- house occupied by A. L. Ward's cruiser on the canal near Highland View. Two hours later, at 3:30, a call came in of another woods fire at 10th Street and Woodward Avenue, which was goon' brought under con- trol. The department was called out again at 12:05 p. m. Wednesday to subdue a woods fire near the new Methodist Church -which, had it got well underway could have-done con- siderable damage. Off On Few Days' Trip Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Costin left Monday for a few days to be spent in Mobile, Ala., and New Orleans, La. They were accompanied by their son Ashley, their small grand- daughter, Carolyn Carr, and grand- osn, Mel Magidson Jr. ---------- Brother III Mrs. A. R.

SMALL CLAIMS COURT IS MIGHTY FINE IDEA All residents of Gulf county are urged to back up the Port St. Joe Retail Merchants Association in its move to present a local bill in the coming session of the legislature to establish a small claims court for Gulf county, to be presided over by the county judge. With such a court, small accounts can be reduced to judgment at a small cost, without the hiring of at- torneys. It will be cheaper not only for the creditors, but also for the debtors. little or nothing for the sponsoring organization. As one of them pointed out, the merchants are touched for all of these-and more-for many of the so-called "benefit" shows include programs in which the businessman also must advertise. "There is no surcease during the year," said one. "And it isn't just us merchants-the public is also being appealed to continually to support this or that. While most of the benefits are solen- did in themselves, there are so doggone many of them that we just can't afford to give any large amount to all of them, and consequently the ones that could do the most good aren't getting thue support they need." They both agreed that something should be done about the matter, but didn't know exactly what. The editor suggested that perhaps the Re- tail Merchants Association might set u,) a com- mittee to pass upon such matters, and if found to be worthy, give its approval. If not, turn thumbs down.

Scholz, district direc- tor, gave some very helpful hints on landscaping in her talk to the Garden Club on March 15. Planning is the first and most important thing, she emphasized, and making a sketch on paper will save a lot of moving of shrubs later on. Imagine you are painting a picture, using house, shrubs, etc. The boundary line is the franie or background for other plantings. Use mostly ever- greens in the shrubbery border and give depth by variety of shrubs. Do not plant in a straight line. By plan- Sning you can have blooms the year around in Florida. Use a simple foundation planting. Don't smother the house with shrubs. Let the foundation of the house show to ;the ground in places. Choose low-growing shrubs for un- der windows and taller ones at the corner, with special emphasis at the door. Leave a large lawn space in front and don't clutter up the lawn with flower beds or specimen plants. An uncluttered lawn is prettier and more restful. It pays to advertise-try it!

KENNETH BALLINGER Hot fires still are burning on the state welfare question as the 1951 Florida legislature prepares to meet in Tallahassee next Monday. Led by such outspoken members as James A. Haley of Sarasota, many are expecting to make a bid for opening the welfare rolls to inspec- tion, to curb the care of illegiti- mates, to make fathers of such chil- dren more responsible, to put liens on property'of oldsters and to make children support their parents when able. 4 Another hot fire has been built by organized registered nurses of the state. They want a state board, thus attacking the practical nurse and closing the gates in Florida to seasonal practice by nurses from other states. Members of the legislature so far are reluctant to discuss Represen- tative Charles 0. Andrews' whole- sale reorganization of state govern- ment, cutting 127 boards and bu- reaus to 27. At bay on the proposal is the entire state setup, led by the cabinet, which sees in the Andrews plan a serious threat to much pat- ronage. Under the plea of wiping out black market baby possibilities, a bill will be introduced requiring all babies offered for adoption to come through licensed child-placing agen- cies. Dade county proposes a central bureau of investigation, to tie all police and sheriffs together in hunts for major criminals. Representative Alex MacWilliam of Vero Beach plans to establish state-wide speed limits for automo- biles. Senators Shands, Pearce, Crary and McArthur have met to decide how to tighten up the sales tax law, bring in more money and yield less pain. Senator Shands was put to bed by his physician shortly after to recover from exhaustion brought on by his work on pending legisla- tion.

To get there, they must have swallowed it while drinking. 7" 4-' '74, I PAGE EIGHT THE STAR, PORT ST. JOE, GULF COUNTY, FLORIDA FRIDAY, MARCH 30.. T961 NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC MR.
