PORT ST. JOE A Progressive Community With a Modern, Progressive Weekly Newspaper T.HE "Port St. Joe -The Outlet Port for the Apalat-hchola-Clhattahoochee Valley" THE STAR Official Paper for Gulf County, Devoted To the SContinued Development Sof the Entire County s VOLUME XIV -ORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 24, 1951 NUMBER 4E _4 n School Bell Puts End To Vacation Gulf Coast Leaguers Save Day for Fliers Belin, Bass and Schantel Demon- Monday morning state Prowess In Alabama- Florida League Tilts Days of Untrammelled Free- dom To End for Kids of Port St. Joe It's mighty tough, kids, but B. B. Scisson, county supervisor of in- struction, and County Superinten- dent Tom Owens say your vacation days are ending and that you must trek to school next Monday morn- ing. And, by the way, don't forget that you're supposed to reg- ister today beginning at 8 a. m. Yep, starting Monday you'll have to put in at least 180 days learning your reading writing' and 'rithmetic. That's Florida law. Anything less than a 180-day school program and Gulf county couldn't qualify to par- ticipate in state financial aid under the minimum foundation program. And without that aid there wouldn't be any schools in Gulf county. That may seem like a good idea to some of you now, but some day you'll re- alize that schooling is the.most im- portant thing in your life .so get all of it you can. Superintendent Owens says he anticipates some immediate in- creasein enrollment in the St. Joe schools, which will crowd to some extent, present facilities. But next ,year, he says, the present school plants will be bulging at the seams when" the paper mill expansion pro- gram is completed- -and. before its. completion. "That will mean either additions to our present buildings or the con- struction of entire new plants," he said. "We're definitely going to have to have more room to take ,care of this increase, so we might as well start planning right now." A plan was approved by the re- cent session of the legislature mak- ing available' necessary funds for counties of Florida, to build the schools needed now while they are needed and where they are needed, C Owens pointed out. "This is to be submitted" as'a proposed constitu- tional amendment," Owens went (Continued on page 5) ---4----- LUNCHROOM MENU HIGH SCHOOL Monday, August 27 Ground Beef with Gravy Mashed Potatoes Lettuce and Tomato Salad White Bread Margarine Fresh Grapes Milk Tuesday, August 28 Baked Beans with Weiners Turnip Greens, Cole Slaw ,Corn Bread Margarine Milk Wednesday, August 29 Meat Loaf Buttered Green Beans Combination Salad Bread and Butter Milk Thursday, August 30 Cheese Wedges Potato Salad Buttered Peas Peaches and Cookie Bread Margarine Milk Friday, August 31 Chicken with Rice Buttered Squash Lettuce and Tomatoes Fruit Jello with Cookies ---~---s- ALL CARS MUST HAVE STANDARD MUFFLERS State Highway Patrolman G. E. Jordan says that all cars in Gulf county are required to be equipped with standard mufflers, and that all cut-outs, Hollywood and gutted mufflers must 'be removed and re- placed with standards. Jordan stated that his orders are to arrest without notice or warning all owners and operators of fancy exhaust mufflers that make too much racket. By GEORGE Y. CORE Observing the Enterprise-Panama City Fliers 'baseball games Sunday afternoon and Monday night, I see that two players of the now non- existent Gulf Coast League won the Sunday game for Panama. Leonard Belin came up in the 9th dining of Sunday's game, with two outs and one man on base. He got his usual hit into left center field and then scored the tieing run to give Panama City a chance to win. Tom Bass, another last year's Gulf Coast Leaguer, came up with a Flier on base and hit the first pitch for a game-winning single (Belin and Bass being responsible for the win). In Monday night's game, Belin. made Zeveral good fielding plays that kinda showed up the other Fliers, and besides making these sensational plays that seemed to cut down Enterprise rallies, he slammed a single into center field 'with the bases loaded to drive in two runs. Jimmy Schantel, a Gulf Coast League player, was the winning pitcher in Monday night's game, al- though he was relieved in the 8th. He had a two-hit shutout going into the 8th inning when he was relieved by Bascom Hamm. BELLOWS WINS FOUR-DAY TRIP TO PUERTO RICO Bob Bellows of the Gulf Hard- ware Company, local General Elec- tric distributor, expects to return today from a four-day paid vacation trip to San Juan, Puerto Rico, won ,by him for a record number of sales of particular appliances. ... Inci- dentally, we understand that deep freeze bought by Mrs. "Star"Smith was the final sale that put him in the favored group. Bob took a plane from Tallahas- see Sunday for Miami, from whence he was flown to San Juan via a G-E chartered plane for four days at the Caribe Hilton Hotel,'one of the swankiest joints on the island. McCORMICKS AND RADIO GANG TO APPEAR AT SKATING RINK Mama and Papa Neal McCormick and their Radio Gang will play for round and square dances every Thursday night at the Mexico Beach skating rink, beginning this week. The McCormieks also broadcast over WCNN, Crestview, Monday through Friday beginning at 10:30 a. m., and over WOOF, Dothan, Ala., every Friday at 4:30 p. m. He Gets Things Done Off and on, for several years, the publisher of The Star' has asked various city commissioners to do something about the abley 'back of The Star building, which had grown deep, sandy ruts, and said commis- sioners would send-a crew around' to spread more sand in the ruts. Last week we asked Commissioner Franklin Chandler if he couldn't de something a bit more drastic, and lo and behold, within a couple of days some salvaged blacktop had 'been spread through the sand bed, much to the gratification of the Danley truck drivers, who are main users of the. alley: Expected for Week-end SMr. and Mrs. Bill Carr and chil- dren of Mobile, Ala., expect to spend the coming week-end here with Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Costin and family. County of Gu f ow Trai er Park To Be Decision Awaited Owes $12,383,600 Bil for Workers By City On Critical City-Operated Project Will Be Lo- im o_ BAI Bn -- -Ik-J____ _. __ Un Bg Federal Pebt Every Resident Carries Bur- den of $1,660 On His Shoulderss Mr. and Mrs. Refdent of Gulf county and each of their children now carries a burden of.$1,660 on their shoulders as their share of the federal debt, believe it or not, and that burden daily is growing heavier and heavier, with appar- ently no end in sight. For a fam- ily of four this amounts to $6,640. The national debt as of June 30, 1951, came to $255,221,976,814.93 (if you can imagine such a sum) which makes Florida's share, with a pop- ulation of 2,771,305, come to $4,- 607,394,739, or $1,660 for every man, woman and child in the state. Consequently, Gulf-county, with a population at present of 7,460, carries $12,383,600 as its share of the enormous burden. That's quite a piece of change! Neighboring counties, with their populations and share of the debt are: Bay, 42,689, $70,977,232; Cal- houn, 7,922, $13,169,454; Franklin, 5,814, $9,647,391; Liberty, 3183, $5,- 283,095. These figures are revealed in a special tax report just received by The Star from the Florida State Retailers Association, which had them prepared by the Library of Congress in Washington. The association's report urges businessmen to express their views on governmental expenditures in immediate letters or telegrams to their senators and congressmen. The association also strongly ad- vocates a pay-as-you-go tax policy and the elimination of non-essential government functions at the na- tional level and good government at less cost at the state level. Monday Last Day To File In City Commission Race Watson Smith Latest To Qualify, Seeking Re-election In Group Two Things were relatively quiet on the city political front this week, only new development being the qualification of Watson.Smith as a candidate for re-election to the city commission in Group Two. Only other candidate at present in this group is Doc R. E. King. Group One seems to be the most' popular, with Denver Miller, Ralph Swatts, T. S. Singletary and Cliff Tharp already entered. B. B. Conk- lin is the present commissioner in this group, but'as yet has not an- nounced his intentions. The mayoralty race still remains the. same, with Jake Belin asking to be re-elected and Ben Williams hoping to oust him -from the mayor's chair. Next Monday, August 27, is the last day that candidates may qual- ify for the commission race. Granddaughter and Niece Visiting Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Clements have as their guests this week their granddaughter, Miss Gene Clem-. ents of Blountstown, .and niece, Miss Peggy Chafin of White City. ...._.. --.--..- Need Any Svill? Anyone interested in purchasing swill from the grammar and high school lunchrooms may contact Mrs. Alton Hady and Mrs. Pat Bray. catea At corner Garrison Avenue and Highway At the regular meeting of the city commission Tuesday night a decision was made to build a mu- nicipally-operated trailer park for the accommodation of workmen to be employed in the $25,000,000 ex- pansion program of the St. Joe Pa- per Company. This action was taken due to the fact that all workers em- ployed by the Tidewater Construc- tion Company, which is doing the work at the mill, travel by trailer. The park, to be located at the corner of Garrison Avenue and Highway 71, opposite the ice plant. will be on land owned by the paper company, which will charge noth- ing for use of the property. Present plans call for the laying of water and sewer lines', the run- ning of electric wires and construc- tion of a central bath house with showers, lavatories and commodes. It will be clean and sanitary and comply with all regulations of the state board of health. The project is strictly temporary and will be dismantled after need for its use is past: Sufficient rental will be charged for use of the facili- ties to make it self-liquidating, and, perhaps, show a small profit to the city. Another matter coming before 'the city dads Tuesday night was that of adequate lighting on Reid Avenue. A delegation of busi- ness men appeared -before the board and stated that tbh present street lights were inadequate and please, could something be done about it. The members of the commission also felt that the lights at present are inadequate and have asked the Florida Power Corporation to make a survey- of the situation and rec- ommend proper improvements. Demonstration Agent Back Home Miss Emma Stevenson, county home demonstration agent, returned Sunday from a vacation trip to Chi- cago, Philadelphia, Baltimore and the Blue Ridge Mountains. Asserts she drove her car 4,481 miles, but was demonstrating her ability as a driver and was not home demon- strating on the trip. She was ac- companied on the grand tour by her sister. Returns To Duty Cpl. Harold F. Pierce left Sunday to return to his station at Fort Hayes, Columbus, Ohio, after a 15- day leave here with his parents, Mr. and'Mrs. J. F. Pierce. While here he observed his 18th birthday and his mother entertained rela- tives and a few friends with a din- ner party in his honor on Saturday, August 11. People of County Buy Bonds During the month of July resi- dents of Gulf county bought $1,406 worth of "E" Defense Bonds and $740 worth of "F" and "G" bonds. Purchases of "E" Bonds in nearby counties were. Bay, $20,587; Cal- houn, $4,781; Franklin, $1,218; Lib- erty, $18. Total "E" Bonds pur- chased in the state during July came to $2,391,001. -----(----- Visitors From Washington Mr. and Mrs. Hilton Lewis have had as their guests for the past two weeks the latter's sisters, Miss Fiane Thomas and Miss Mercidine Thomas, both of Washington, D. C. Miss Frane has completed her law studies and was admitted to the bar in May of this year. uetense Area riea 'Go Ahead' Signal Probably Would See Work Start On 300 New Dwellings The city of Port St. Joe is hold- ing its collective breath awaiting word from up Potomac-way as to whether or not the petition to have the city declared a critical defense area will .be okehed or get the thumbs-down sign. With the -entire congressional delegation from this section work- ing on the matter, as well as local citizens and. civic organizations, hope is high that the decision will be in the affirmative. And if it is, it is anticipated that work will be- gin immediately on a housing pro- ject that contemplates erection of some 390 new dwellings to care for the increase in population which will result from the $25,000,000 ex- pansion program of the St. Joe Pa- per Company which is now under- way and is scheduled for comple- tion by September of 1952. In anticipation of this building program, the city dads are putting in approximately 60 sewer lateral lines on Woodward Avenue to con- nect with the present sewer main to avoid tearing up paving later on when Woodward is surfaced. It is understood that that section of the city will be used for a part of the building project. 'It is p3jin'tedi;ut. city officials that each property owner will be required to pay for these lateral lines before connection will be made to the sewer main. Only new information available as The Star went to press was a letter received Iby City Clerk Ben Dickens from Ralph R. Kaul, chair- man of the Critical Areas Commit- tee, Defense Production Adminis- tration, in which he acknowledged receipt of the city's .petition, stat- ing that action is being withheld pending development and initiation of new procedures to conform with recently enacted amendments to the Defense Production Act. ------C------ Chief of Police Urges Drivers To Be Careful' Chief of Police Buck Griffin asks that, with school opening Monday, car owners be particularly careful in their driving, since school chil- dren will be going to and coming from school. He particularly urges drivers to watch their speed in indicated school zones and warns that arrests will be made of those drivers who drive at an excessive rate through those zones. ------- Home From Week's Trip Misses Patsy and Eliza'beth Wil- liams, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Williams, returned home Mon- day from Bainbridge, Ga., after a visit in that city with their grand- father, J. A: Barber, and aunt, Mrs. Edna Harrell. During their week's trip they also visited in Atlanta and Albany, Ga., and Tallahassee. 4'- Morrells Found Not Guilty The case of the state vs. Alvin and Donald Morrell on a charge of grand larceny, heard Thursday of last week at the fall session of the Gulf county circuit court, resulted in acquittal of the defendants when the jury returned a verdict of "not guilty." The defendants were or- dred discharged from custody. I Y-I -- T-IAR PAGE TWO THE STAR, PORT ST. JOE, GULF COUNTY, FLORIDA FRIDAY, AUGUST 24, 1951 KENNEY MILL G.

BEGINNING TO PAY (The following editorial is reprinted from the August 22, 1941, issue of THE STAR, and is as applicable today as-it was ten years ago.) We are just beginning to get a taste of the higher taxation that has finally become inevit- able. Some time back congress raised income tax rates in all brackets and lowered exemptions. ... Our taxes are now the highest in our history. Even so, the revenue resulting will be far from adequate to pay for what we are spending. The answer to that is more deficit-financing- which simply amounts to charging today's bills against tomorrow's income. The tax boosts so far approved by congress are but a modest begin- ning. In coming sessions further increases, more severe than anything we have ever known, will in all probability be passed. Only a miracle, which would raise the national income far be- yond any reasonable expectation, could change the outlook. Higher taxes mean sacrifices for all the people. We will be able to afford fewer luxuries-and we shall have to make the most out of the necessi- ties. And if the people must sacrifice, the govern- ment should also sacrifice by paring down on all governmental departments and eliminating the deadwood. It is the duty of our government to see that our sacrifice will not be in vain-that, in short, we get 100 per cent value in return for our tax dollars. Back in 1941 we didn't have the vaguest idea of what those "further increases" would be by 1951. If we had, probably a lot of us would have left for darkest Africa or Puerto Rico, where the tax rate is non-existent or at least reasonable. Un- der your friend (he ain't ours) Harry Truman no "deadwood" has been pruned out, but instead millions more government employes have been added to the payroll to boost the tax burden. Trade with your home-town merchants. STARDUST and MOONSHINE Our luck gave out on us at last! The rain ceased to fall in the neigh- borhood of Stardust Lodge up on the Dead Lakes and our good wife handed us the brush and the can of varnish and told us to hop to it and stain and varnish those other two doors which we did with deep sighs and considerable blasp- hemy. And to add insult to injury, she demanded that we also stain and varnish three door lintels. We've 'been sorta down with ton- silitis the past three days, so we're really glad to find something to fill the column this week. Our recent "Do Fishers and Don't Fish- ers" editorial is still getting results -this time thanks to Wallace Fin- lay of the Blountstown Record, whose effort to belittle us brought a backfire from Editor DeVane Wil- liams of the Bonifay A ertiser, who had this to say, in i : We all love bouquets and accept them graciously, but can we take the brickbats that usually come along with a compliment? You know the answer as well as we, but we feel that you should read what Wallace Finlay, editor of the Cal- houn County Record had to say about The Advertiser and Bonifay in a recent issue. He said: "Editor Williams of Bonifay turns out an excellent paper, indeed, loaded, it seems to us-and we admit we are not authorities on that subject- with very juicy ads. Week after week he comes out with eight pages from a town and county which, ac- cording to all indices, is one of the poorest in Florida perhaps the poorest.
