Phone Company Asks

Big Increase In Rates

Utility Commission Extends Hear-
ing To Get Full 12-Month
Estimate By Company

The Florida Railroad and Public
Utilities Commission last week or-
dered a recess in the hearing in-
volving the St. Joseph Telephone
& Telegraph Company's application
for adjustments in its local ex-
change rates and charges for tele-
phone service.
The company introduced as evi-
dence figures based on the nine-
month period ending May 31, 1951.
The commission refused to accept
these figures as a basis for study,
and ordered the petitioner to pre-
sent evidence based on a 12-month
period ending September 30, 1951.
If permission is granted for the
rate increase the people of Altha,
Apalachicola, Blountstown, Carra-
belle, Chattahoochee, Port St. Joe
and Wewahitchka will pay $3.50
per month for home telephones and
$6.00 for commercial one-party ser-
vice.
The present rates in Port St. Joe
are $2.75 for home and $3.75 for
commercial service. The proposed
increase would also affect multi-
party lines accordingly.

Merchants Explain

Why Parking Time

Limit Put In Effect

Assert Setup Sidetracks Plan
of City Commission To
Put In Meters

While the two-hour parking limit
on Reid Avenue is not yet being en-
forced due to the fact that the city
is waiting for signs to be placed
along the street, apparently a lot of
people are getting riled up over the
fact that they can't park their cars
on the street all day if they so de-
sire. And so, it is apparent, they
are raking the merchants over the
coals.
The merchants along Reid simply
love people, because people are the
ones who keep them in business by
buying their wares, hence the fol-

lowing epistle which they requested
be printed in The Star:
"The Port St. Joe Merchants' As-
sociation has been severely criti-
cized and censored with the threat
of some people refusing to do busi-
ness with them anymore because
they interceded with the city com-
mission in having a two-hour park-
ing limit established on Reid Ave-
nue. Yes, the Merchants' Associa-
tion is responsible for it, but why?
"About a year ago your city com-
mission considered putting parking
meters on Reid Avenue, and went
as far as to receive estimates on
installation and revenue to be de-
rived from such meters.
'"The merchants found-' olit bout
this..and appeared before the c6m-
mission requesting that the park-
ing'meter project not'be considered
and that the merchants in turn
would endeavor to have the cars
of their clerks and their own cars
parked on side streets and alleys
to provide parking places for visi-
tors and others who have business
to attend to on Reid Avenue.
"This, however, did not last very
long, and the merchants realized
that some step by the cit was im-
perative, and therefore requested
that a two-hour parking limit be
established with the view of pre-
venting the installation of parking
meters. The city so advised the
Merchants' Association then, that
if this didn't provide parking space
that other steps would 'be taken.
"Do not blame the merchants. All
information passed to the public
has stated that it was at the re-
quest of the Merchants' Associa-
tion. As a matter of fact, the mer-
chants were trying to save" money
for their customers in Ipreventing
parking meters from being in-
stalled. PORT ST. JOE MER-

Fire In Methodist Church
Set By Two Youngsters

Chief of Police Buck Griffin, who
investigated the fire set in the old
Methodist Church last week, found
that it was caused by two 9-year-
old youngsters playing in.the build-
ing. He said they had found the can
of kerosene in a closet and, like
most youngsters, had the urge to
"play with fire."
Chief Griffin asks the parents of
our city to please warn their chil-
dren not to play in vacant build-
ings, and particularly not to play
with matches in any manner, shape
or form.

Quick Action Saves

Life of Young G"irl

Nine-Year-Old Daughter of iLocal
Couple Revived By Artifictal
Respiration'

Patricia Griner, 9-year-old-daugh-
ter of Mr: and Mrs. James Grfer of
this city,' is alive 'today 'dhe to
a knowledge .of artificial respira-
tion by Parker Hart of Beacon Hill
and spur-of-the-moment action by an
unknown young man driving by on
che coastal highway.
The Griners were occupying one
of the Patrick cottages at Beacon
Hill and Patricia and her brother,
neither of whom could swim, were
playing in the shallow water at the
edge of the beach, using an inflated
inner tube as a raft. Suddenly they
found themselves in deep water, as
the tube had drifted with them. Ap-
parently Patricia became excited
and fell off the tul~a.
H. T. Hudon of Bainbridge, Ga.,
who was on the beach but could not
swim, seized another inner tube
and started to the rescue of the two
youngsters.
At this moment the unknown
young man stopped his car on the
highway, shucked down to his un-
derwear and proceeded to ring in
Patricia, her 'brother and Hudon.
Parker Hart, learning of the acci-
dent, rushed to the beach where the
girl lay, to all intents dead, and ad-
ministered artificial respiration un-
til she began breathing, a period of
about 20 minutes.
The Comforter Funeral Home am-
bulance was called and carried the
girl -to the"Port St- Ju -Munl a ipal
Hospital, where she was treated for
shock and given oxygen.
'Dr. Wayne Hendrix stated that
the quick and efficient artificial
respiration given 'by' Mr. Hart was
responsible for saving the girl's
life.
The unknown rescuer of the three
waited until the girl was put into
the ambulance, took a shower,
donned his clothes and drove on.

Forty Attend Training Class
Held By Methodist W.S.C.S.

The wide, cool porches and spa-
cious rooms of the home of Mrs. J.
T. McNeill at Indian Pass provided
an ideal setting for the 40 who met
Tuesday for the officers' training
school of the Methodist Woman's
Society of Christian Service. Mrs.
I. C. Nedley and her committee
were in charge of all arrangements,
and seasonal flowers were provided
by Mrs. George Patton.
After those gathered were served
delicious fruit punch, the session
opened at 10 a..m. with Mrs. Ralph
Swatts, president, presiding. The
next two 'hours were very profit-
ably spent in a thorough and inten-
sive study of the work of each offi-
cer and ways and means of creat-
ing interest in the work of the so-
ciety as .a whole.
At noon a delicious buffet lunch-
eon of ham, salad, pickles, hot rolls,
punch and cake was served.
A short afternoon session was
held at which time plans and poli-
cies for the year were discussed
and approved.
Mrs. Swatts expressed herself as
being highly gratified at the inter-
est shown and the good attendance,
and all present felt that the ses-
sion was helpful and .worthwhile,
as well as enjoyable.

Expansion Program of

Paper Mill Underway

Will Increase Present Production of
400 Tons of Kraft Daily To
Better Than 1000 Tons

The $25,000,000 expansion program
of the St. Joe Paper Company went
into high gear this week with an-
nouncement by Roger Main, presi-
dent of the company, that in addi-
tion to expansion of the mill itself
to boost the production of kraft pa-
per from the present 400 tons daily
to' approximately 1200 tons, a new
'building with 100,000 feet of floor
space will be constructed to be used
in the production of corrugated
boxes.
It is hoped to have the job com-
pleted by September of next year
and it is expected that when the ex-
pansion of the plant is completed
that it will require an extra 367,500
cords of pulpwod annually, which
would mean that the number of
persons employed in cutting and
shipping wood to the mill will be
increased from around the present
500 to more than 1200.
More water will also be required,
and it is understood that a large
settling basin will be built on the
Apalachicola River near Douglas
Landing, with a large pipeline to
bring the water to the mill.

Sportsmen Told

Bills Sabotaged

Orange County Man Hits Legisla-
ture for Failure To Adopt
Federation Program

Henry Douglas of Orlando, former
president of the Orange County
Sportsmen's Club, Saturday charged
the 1951 legislature with a "defi-
nite act of sabotage" against Flor-
ida sportsmen by failing to adopt
any of the Florida Wildlife Federa-
tion's legislative program.
He voiced the charge in a formal
report to a meeting of the wildlife
federation in Tallahassee as chair-
man of its legislative committee.
Douglas said the federation had
three bills before the 1951 legisla-
ture. One would have increased the
penalties for violation of the game
and fish laws, one would have set
up a salt water fish commission,
and one would have eliminated li-
cense-free cane pole fishing in
home counties. None of these were
adopted.
He said the penalty and salt wa-
ter fish commission bills will be
placed before the 1953 legislature,
and expressed confidence House
Speaker-designate C. Farris Bryant
of Ocala and Senate President-des-
ignate Charley Johns of Starke will
work with the federation "100 per
cent" and won't "stack committees

Our Country Right or Wrong

CAN ANYTHING BE MORE USELESS?
Several times in the past year or so the editor
of The Star has commented on waste of the tax-
payers' money by the federal government in is-
suing pamphlets of various sorts that are no
earthly good to anyone in this country but tend
to keep a staff of hangers-on on the public pay-
roll for political reasons. Now comes another
pamphlet which tops them all.
Our beneficient government has just issued a
booklet, 922-822-51 No. 94, a scholarly treatise
on the economics of operating a race track. It
informs the reader how to choose the dates for a
track meeting; the effect of the size of the purses
upon the caliber of the bang-tails; how long it
takes to put a track on a paying basis; the ele-
ments of race track costs, and the sources of
revenue.
Naturally, upon reading this informative book-


I


the "goat" so many times he has probably started
eating tin cans for breakfast.
Harpooning Warren has replaced pinning the
tail on the donkey as a drawing room sport. Any-
body who wants to be accepted in the best com-
pany nowadays had better make it his business
to casually knife the governor first time the con-
versation permits.
Are you discouraged about the world's foul
state? Just give ol' Fuller the devil a few minutes.
You'll feel much better.
Was the toast burned' at breakfast? Was the
coffee weak? Were the eggs raw? Did the cook
quit? Call on the governor for an explanation.
We readily admit we've shot a few editorial
barbs Warren's way. We voted for Dan McCarty
and expressed some doubt as to the soundness of
the people's decision when Fuller edged him out.
Yet we can't help feel Warren has made a pretty
fair governor. At any rate, the things he's being
bedeviled about today certainly are no evidence
he's been a bad governor.

Keep smiling-and buy Defense Bonds.

BP Plenty of power for your job.
Power has been increased up to 20%
in eight great engines-94.to 154 hp.
You get top economy, too-thanks to
high compression ratio, 4-ring pistons
with chrome-plated top ring, and many
other extra values.

& Maximum safety-You get the
finest truck brakes in the industry! On
many models you get new, molded,
tapered, Cyclebond brake lining for
smoother, quieter, safer braking. And
you'll ride in a welded all-steel cab with
an extra-big windshield.

W Easy handling-You can turn,
parL, back up and maneuver with the
greatest -of ease because of cross-
steering, short wheelbase and wide front
tread. Other aids to easy handling are
the comfortable new steering wheel posi-
tion and extra cab visibility.


[f Bigger payloads-Balanced weight
distribution enables you to haul bigger
payloads on a Dodge "Job-Rated" truck
without danger of overloading. Because
the engine has been moved forward and
front axle back, the right proportion of
the load is carried on each axle.
B Extra comfort-Famous "Pilot-
House" cab gives you safe, all-around
vision with extra-big windshield arid
rear quarter windows. Roomy, "chair-
height" seat is widest of any popular
truck. New "Oriflow" Shock Absorbers
on Y-, 4-, and 1-ton models give
smoother ride.
[ girol Fluid Drive-Only Dodge
offers gyrol Fluid Drive. Available on
Y-, 4-, and 1-ton models. You start
with amazing smoothness. Gearshifting
is minimized. Wear is reduced on vital
,parts. And Fluid Drive protects your
load by minimizing damaging jolts.

importance, yet it we should take
away any one of these minor but
essential elements, plants growing
in such a soil would develop a
weak color growth. Stunting and
other deformities also show up in
mineral-starved soil.
Here in the South, we often see
evidence of mineral deficiencies in
our farm and garden soil. When-

vegetables and fruits develop a yel-
lowish-green color with the veins
showing a darker green, it is a
pretty sure sign of a.mineral de-

We should try to improve our soil
by using plant foods that have the
main mineral supplement as well
as the regular nitrogen, phosphate
and potash ingredients. If it is
necessary to supply additional min-
eral elements to the soil you can do
so by applying a special mixture
made up for this purpose..
