Three Millions?


Figures Show That Upkeep
of President Runs Into
Staggering Sum

By RUSSELL KAY
Every political campaign brings
forth the chest-thumping, finger-
pointing aspirant for this or that
office who climbs up on a stump
and froths at the mouth about the
salaries received by big corpora-
tion executives.
He sheds crocodile tears for the
poor downtrodden working man
and pictures him in a tumble-down
shack or battered car as compared
to the industrial tycoon who has a
swank home in Palmn Beach and a
chauffeur for his Cadillac.
These indignant political shysters
always "take in" a lot of poor dumb
clucks who hoot and holler ap-
proval. The demagogue never says
a word about the amount of money
the government takes back in the
form of taxes on these so-called ex-
cessive salaries, nor does he point
out how many people are given em-
ployment 'because of the executive
ability, push and energy of these
industrial leaders.
Compared to our highest paid in-
dustrial or business executive, a
top-flight politician has got it all
over them when it comes to riding
the old gravy train.
The Washington Times-Herald re-
cently came up with some figures
on what it costs to maintain the top
man in government. If the poli-
ticians want something to scream
about next election, they might lay
off the industrial tycoon and really
go out after big game with their
trusty harpoon.
If you wonder why Harry wants to
hang on to his job and doesn't find
the task of being president too irk-
some, you might mull over these
figures awhie and maybe you'll
come up with the answer.
Here is how the Times-Herald
breaks down the three and a half
million dollar plus what is costs
the poor downtrodden working man
to maintain a president for a year:
Truman's salary --............$ 100,000

First PTA Meeting of

Year Next Thursday

Teacher of Twenty-five Years Ex-
perience To Be Principal
Speaker

By MRS. RALPH SWATTS
The Port St. Joe Parent-Teacher
Association will hold the first meet-
ing of the school year in the ele-
mentary school auditorium Thurs-
day, Sept. 20 at 8 o'clock.
Mrs. Rush Chism, P.-T. A. presi-
dent, has announced that an excel-
lent program has 'been planned for
this occasion, and she is looking
forward to a record attendance. The
devotional is to be given by Rev.
Warren Lindsey of the Methodist
Church, and music will be pro-
vided under the direction of Mrs.
Maxine Swain, music chairman. An
added attraction will be the pre-
sentation of the teachers in a
novel manner.
As guest speaker for this meet-
ing, the program committee, headed
by Mrs. Ralph Nance, has secured
the services of Mrs. William R.
Brearly, whose talk on "Know Your
P.-T. A." will be an interesting
highlight of the evening. The fact
that Mrs. Brearly can boast of 20
years teaching experience as a prin-
cipal in Princeton, N. J., and that
she holds a P.-T. A. life member-
ship presented her in 1945 in ap-
preciation of her services, is assur-
ance that she is well qualified to
speak on the chosen subject from
the point of view of both teacher
and parent;
A social hour will follow the
meeting, at which* time: refresh-
ments will be served by Mrs. John-
nie Sykes and her hospitality com-
mittee.
For the benefit of those parents
who can not leave small children at
home, a nursery will be provided
at the school.

Local Nimrods Predicting
Fair Hunting This Season

Our perennial hunters in this sec-
tion are predicting a fair to good
hunting season this year from all
indications.
They say that stocks of quail and
turkey look good, but that the squir-
rel population seems on the decline.
We imagine they gather all this in-
formation while spending their time
fishing and waiting impatiently for
the hunting season to open.
Just to refresh the memory of our
local nimrods, we want to remind
them that a "stamp" system will be
uesd this year in taking turkey and
deer. Each hunting license will be
equipped with five stamps, and each f
time the huntsman gets a turkey or
deer he will be expected to tear
one of the stamps off the license.
And by the way, turkey hens will
be protected this year, so watch
your step.

Motor To Thomasville
Mrs. Clyde Gentry and son Al-
bert motored to Thomasville, Ga.,
last Friday. They were accompanied
by the Misses Doris and Trixie
Griffin, cousins of Mrs. Gentry, who
had visited here for a week.

Accompany Son To College
Mr. and Mrs. Cliff Chatham re-
turned home last week-end from
Clemson, S. C., where they accom-
panied their son, Phillip, who en-
tered Clemson College. They also
visited in Norfolk, Va., with their
son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and
Mrs. M. W. Purdue.

Belin, Tharpe and


Smith Named As


Commissioners

Doc King and Watson Smith
In Close Race; 661
Cast Ballots

As was anticipated, a larger-than-
ordinary number of electors turned
out Tuesday to express their pref-
erence as to whom should be named
to the city commission, 661 of the
1,543 registered voters trekking to
the city hall.
The total number of ballots cast
does not give a true picture, since
of the 1,543 names on the registra-
tion books, it is estimated that ap-
proximately 200 are no longer in
the city, having moved away or
died.
Mayor Jake Belin led in the num-
ber of votes garnered, being re-
turned as mayor-commissioner by a
vote of 494 to 160 over his oppon-
ent, Ben C. Williams.
Watson Smith, seeking re-election
to the commission in Group Two,
had a narrow squeak, being re-
turned to office by the close mar-
gin of 34 votes. Smith polled 340
to Dr. Robert E. King's 306.
The handicap event in Group One,
in which four were entered, re-
sulted in the 'election of Clifford
"Windy" Tharpe, who polled 219
votes against Denver Miller's 105,
T. S. Singletary's 160, and Ralph
Swatts' 1,62.
The city hall was really a popular
place Tuesday night after the polls
closed, with standing room at a pre-
mium and cars parked solid for a
block around the 'building.

Tapper Says Port St. Joe
May Annex Panama City

Speaking before the Panama City
Rotary Club last Friday, Represen-
tative George Tapper told his lis-
teners that Port St. Joe is growing
rapidly, adding facitiously that St.
Joe would probably annex Panama
City in the near future if interven-
ing Tyndall Field didn't pose a prob-
lem.
Tapper told of the expansion plan
of the St. Joe Paper Company to
triple its production, with the con-
sequent employment of many more
workers, and that the city probably
would have a population of 10,000
in another 10 years.
He also pointed out that the St.
Joe Lumber & Export Company,
which employs about 600, is also a
big factor in the growth of the city,
as is the Southeastern Pipeline Cor-
poration terminus which results in
more tonnage passing through our
port than any other in the state ex-
cept Miami and Port Everglades.
He said that about 42,000 barrels of
oil move through our port daily.

Service Officer Here Today
Bill Linton, Gulf county service
officer, states that he will be in St.
Toe today from 5 to 7 p. m. at the
Legion hall, instead of Saturday.
Any veteran or dependents of vet-
erans may see him then.

That Set Up Speed Traps
Also Criticizes Drivers Who Dash
Through A Town Simply
Because It Is Small
Some of the smaller towns in

the reputation of "speed traps." Any

these places was supposedly risk-

spoke.his mind recently about these
"speed traps." His recital was in-
spired by reports that Alford, in
Jackson county, has become the
newest city to arrest innocent mo-
torists.
"It is a known fact," Winslett
wrote. "that many motorists have
been stopped for passing through
small towns and villages at 35 to 40
miles per hour, when the streets
were practically deserted. The In-
sistence on a 25-mile speed limit,
and its strict enforcement, will give
any small town the reputation of
operating a speed trap, which it
obviously is. And the existence of
such conditions hurts not only the
town permitting it, but the entire
county and area."
On the other side of the picture,
Winslett reminded his readers that
there is many a driver "who, ignor-
ing a town simply because it is
small, rushes through its main
street at high speed, confident that
nothing can catch or stop him. The
natural resentment of the townspeo-
ple is also easily understandable."
Winslett goes on: "The town of
Altha, in Calhoun county, was for
years known and often avoided as a
'speed trap," but the nearness of
the school to the highway made ex-
tra caution necessary. You can't
endanger the lives of children and.
get away with it long anywhere.
"A few years ago, a sign was
erected (reportedly by members of
the state road department) outside
the town of Cottondale, which read,
'Warning-Speed Trap Ahead.'"The
sigh was subsequently changed to
read-'Traffic Light Ahead,' :but Cot-
tondale got much unfavorable no-
toriety which it may not have de-
served.
"Since passage of the bill appor-
tioning the state cigaret tax to in-
corporated towns and cities, many
communities (Alford is one) have
resurrected long-dormant charters
and gone back into business as mu-
nicipalities. Others, never chartered
before, have sought and obtained
charters, and are paying a good
portion of their operating expense
from the tobacco bonanza. With the
added revenue from fast drivers,
many of these may be able to con-
tinue municipal operations foi an
indefinite period.
"Somewhere 'between the two ex-
tremes of viewpoint lies a fair and
reasonable attitude Itsis to.-:thini-
terest of both th- small community
and the traveling public to see that
everyone's rights are respected.
Whether it's Alford, Marianna, Al-
tha, Cottondale or some other com-
munity, there can be no permanent
'benefit from.the process of extract-
ing 'toll' from travelers on a basis
of legal technicality."-Washington

Our Country Right or Wrong

WE RECKON THE DIPLOMATS SEE IT
Everyone else seems to see it, and so we reckon
our diplomats (and we use the word loosely in
reference to some of them) see it also. And that
is the way Russia is doing everything in her
power to keep the world in a turmoil and block
moves for peace at every angle. If they don't see,
then they have their heads, buried in the sand.
While Gromyko, at the San Francisco meeting,
charged the United States with aggressive poli-
cies and the Communists in Korea drum up fic-
titious charges of truce violations at Kaesong, Rus-
sian tanks are rushed into the Korean front and
troops from Russia's satellite countries are being
brought in to do battle in what apparently will
be a new Communist offensive when Russia be-
lieves the "truce" negotiations have been held
for the length of time necessary to build up what
she believes to be an unbeatable force on the
Korean peninsula
As we said, it's plain to everybody else what is
going on, so let's hope it is also plain to our
diplomats.

Fifty-six species of termites are known to in-
habit the United States-not including Stalin's
agents.

to run their Port St. Joe-Chatta-

decision dissolved an injunction re-

Council Emphasizes

Homemaker's Part In

National Emergency

Plan of Action Outlined To Aid In
Building Better, Homes and
Better Communities

Emphasizing t h e homemaker's
.part in a national emergency, the
Florida Council of Home Demon-
stration Work has outlined a plan
of action for 1951-52 which calls
upon each member to aid in build-
ing better homes, better communi-
ties and a better world.
Working in committees, official
delegates from 32 Florida counties
made recommendations covering 15
phases of home demonstration work.
County home demonstration agents
and state specialists consulted with
the committees.
"The existing situations in each
field were thoughtfully studied by
these women, who formulated their
recommendations in the light of
their analyses," Miss Anna Mae
SSikes, state home demonstration
agent, said. "They considered the
opportunities, problems, needs and
resources in the studies."
Recommendations were made in
the fields of citizenship and civil
defense, child care and family life,
.food and nutrition, food production,
food conservation, marketing and
home industries, 4-H Club work,
health education, safety and fire
prevention, clothing and. textiles,
community life and recreation, mu-
sic and community activities, yard
and community beautification, in-
terior home improvement, and pub-
licity
Throughout all of the plans, the;,
importance of co-operation with
other groups and the necessity for
assuming leadership in both the
home and the community were
stressed.
In line with the civil defense pro-
gram, committees approved spon-
soring courses in home nursing,
first aid, farm and home safety,
health education, and similar prob-
lems.
Recognizing that in times of
emergency a good home food sup-
ply is of even more importance than
during normal times, the state coun-
cil urges increased production and
conservation of food at home.' It
also suggests more study and inter-
est in providing, z:void r t, iitipus
meals at the ...,w" :r ,....,: :ri.-" cost,
avoiding hoarding and black mar-
ket buying.
"This group teaches that the home
the center of a homemaker's life
-not the circumstance," said Miss
Sikes. "The plan proposed by the
state committee encourages build-
ing a better world through both fam-
ily and community co-operation."

Finishes Aid Pocketbook
Few purchasers realize the great
part that colorful and durable in-
dustrial finishes now play in mak-
ing cars, furniture, refrigerators
and other household appliances
available at prices which.so many
people can afford. A little more
than a quarter of a century ago,'
for instance, 35 days and 28 or more
hand operations were required to
finish aI high grade automobile. Be-
cause of the new improved finishes
available today, both the time and
plant area required for finishing
have been reduced to a mere frac-
tion of that needed 35 years ago.

In June of this year there were
69,323 aged persons receiving as-
sistannce; 70,958 needy dependent
children, and 3,322 needy blind.
In addition to providing assist-
ance to the needy aged, blind and
dependent children, the welfare de-
partment received 1,250 petitions
for adoption for study and recom-
mendation; 1,998 requests for ser-
vices to children; 372 requests from
unmarried mothers for social ser-
vices; 8,876 requests from other

Because of insufficient funds, the
report says, there will be limita-
tions on services and assistance
'during the current two-year fiscal
period. Less money is available for
aid to dependent children; about
the same for the needy aged, and
about the same for the needy blind.
Child welfare service will have to
be curtailed.

Communities Cannot

Expect Outside Aid In

Event of Modern War

Civil Defense Head Points Out That
Nearby Cities Would Have More
Calls Than They Could Handle

"America's industrial plants, hos-
pitals, schools and other institu-
tions are a vital part of the nation's
resources, and these establishments
are especially vulnerable to the haz-
ards of modern war because they
are geared to peacetime activities
and are, in the main, unprotected, it
is pointed out in a manual titled
'Civil Defense In Industry and In-
stitutions,' just released by the Fed-
eral Civil Defense Administration,"
Col. R. G. Howie, Florida state di-
rector of civil defense, announces.
In the event of enemy attack, de-
pendence could not be placed on
outside aid because civil defense


and community protective services
would probably have more calls
than they could handle, the booklet
points out in a sharp warning to
those who fall under this category.
"To wage war successfully rests
squarely on the shoulders of our
industrial plants and their skilled
workers, our agriculture potential,
and the ultimate productive ca-
pacity, and morale of these work-
ers depends to a great extent on
their safety and the safety of their
families,", Col. Howie declared. "In
order to maintain steady production
and to provide safeguards for life
and property; industrial plants and
institutions must organize for self-
protection. The best way to cope
with disaster is to be thoroughly
prepared to meet it, and any steps
you take now to protect your estab-
lishments will minimize the effects
of a major catastrophe in peace and
war."
"Self-protection," as defined by
this manual, is the concept of or-
ganizing and training small groups


within an industrial or other or-
ganization to perform specialized
services, such as policing or fire-
fighting, to safeguard the plant and
its occupants in time of disaster.
The civil defense self-protection
program is not expected to replace
normal protection. It is designed to
help any industry or institution ex-
pand its services to meet large-
scale disaster more effectively.
The manual further advises that
personnel whose natural talents and
past experience fit them for spe-
cific tasks and whose normal duties
can be safely interrupted should be
selected as key members of a self-
protection unit.

You Get So Much-






Youi Pay So Little


T HIS is a picture of America's
best Pontiac salesman--the car
itself!
Come on in and see for yourself
exactly how much you get when you
become the proud owner of a Pontiac
-and how very little this great car
actually costs.
First of all, you get the outstanding
beauty on the road. There's nothing
else quite like Pontiac's Silver Streak
distinction.
You get performance so downright
satisfying that you'll look forward to


every hour behind the wheel of your
Pontiac.
And since this is a Pontiac we're
talking about, you can be sure that
your pleasure and pride will last a
long, long time-for Pontiac is built
to give you years and years of care-
free pleasure.
What about the price tag? Well, we
think that's the best news of all-
Pontiac is priced so low that if you
can afford any new car you can easily
afford a Pontiac! Come in and see for
yourself.

Postage Bill Would

Boost Cost of All

Classes of Mailing

Conrgessional Measure Would Make
Letters Cost Four Cents and
Postal Cards Two Cents

SThe senate has passed a bill and
the house is considering it up in
Washington-on-theAPotomac which
would increase the postage of ordi-
nary letters from three tents to
four cents, boost postage on post-
cards to two cents, raise the post-
age for ordinary airmail letters
from six cents to eight cents, and
hike postal revenues all along the
line for nearly $400,000,000 a year.
Other increases would boost the
rates on newspapers 30% over a
three-year period and on magazines
60% over a like period.
Charges for third and fourth class
mail, and such special services as
special delivery letters, also would
be hiked by the legislation.
The measure, intended to wipe
out part of the postoffice depart-
ment's huge annual deficit, naturally
will come out of the pocket'of Mr.
Average Citizen. Our solons up in
Washington should take into con--
sideration the fact that a large por-
tion of this deficit comes from so-
called "franked" mail sent out post-
age-free by themselves, thousands
of tons of it a year, if the crap that
comes into The Star office is any
criterion.

Millionth Traffic

Death Is Expected

Soon, Says Council

Anticipate Statistic To Occur In
December, Perhaps Right
Here In Port St. Joe

Who will be the one millionth
person to die in a traffic accident?
Where will it happen? Exactly
when? The National Safety Council
says the answers to those questions
never will be known.
If the present rate of traffic
deaths continues, some time next
December a child will dart into the
street, a homeward-bound salesman
will try to pass a truck on a hill, a
young couple will hurtle off a curve
on the way to a dance; an old wo-
man will become confused crossing
a stieet-and the millionth traffic
victim will pass unheralded into a
dusty police file.
That vital statistic may happen
in Gulf county, or perhaps right
here in Port St. Joe. Who knows?
But even though the actual iden-
tity of thq millionth victim will re-
main a mystery, the council has
made plans which will enable it to
name the fateful day as a climax to

Cabbage Palm Fifth
Cousin To Corn Stalk

Has No Tell-Tale Rings To Give
Its Age Away, and Has But
One Growing Spot
By CAROL H. BECK
Botanist, Florida Park Service
"Stop calling me a tree," the cab-
bage palm might say if it could
speak. "I'll have you know there's
a difference. I'in almost a fifth
cousin to a corn stalk."
Everywhere the traveler goes in
Florida, cabbage palms nod and
seem to ask: "Don't you wish you
knew miore about me?"
The palms have butone growing
spot-the !bud on the very top of
the stem. This bud will bend to-
ward the light-and. the trunk will
keep that bend for the life of the
tree.
During storms or heavy rains, the
wind or high waters knock cabbage
palms nearly over. But it does not
kill them. They merely turn their
heads toward the sun and continue
to grow, with just another bend
added.
Cabbage palms can be seen along
the river at Hillsborough State
Park, near Zephyhills, growing out
from the bank, trunks horizontal
over the water, heads turned up-
ward. In high waters, nothing but
the head shows and it bobs up and
down in the river as if to greet:
"Howdy, folks!"
The cabbage palm has no tell-tale
rings to give its age away, for its


woody and growing tissues are not
arranged in layers but in strings or
fibers. As the palm grows older, it
grows taller, but its trunk rarely
grows wider.
At last it becomes old and top-
heavy and begins to bend under the
wear and tear of many years in the
open, often making a perfect semi-
circle, as can be observed at High-
lands Hammock State Park, near
Sebring. Then it breaks somewhere
-usually at the weakest spot in the
arc-and its beautiful palm-fronded
head falls to the ground.
_____^_____
No-Unemployed Pay Passed Out
Well, it looks like those two un-
employed guys in Gulf county who
have been drawing $60 to $80 down
between them during the past two
or' three weeks have finally got
jobs, for during the week ,ending
August 31 no unemployment com-
pensation checks were issued in
Gulf county, according to the state
industrial commission.

that come up during the year that
account for a few thousands more
that must come from the taxpayers'
pockets, like three special secret
service men who trailed Margaret


all over Europe for two months for
which we picked up the check to
the tune of $6000.
And when the president's sister,
Mary Jane, went sight-seeing about
the country recently, it was in a
governmental limousine, with two
secret service men going along for
the ride.
There is also the matter of some
costly extra residences around the
nation that must be maintained at
the taxpayers' expense-the Blair-
Lee house, where the First Family
now resides, normally used for of-
ficial presidential guests; the Little
White House in Key West, and a
Shangra-La in the Maryland moun-
tains.
Wouldn't the politicians go stark
staring mad and yank their hair out
by the roots if they could point to
figures like this as applied to a pri-
vate citizen? They might try past-
ing them in the hats they make a
practice of talking through so

HERE'S A THAT WAILL S7t


If you could look ahead a few years there
wouldn't be any doubt in your mind:-

International pickup trucks are your best
pickup buy today for lower operating and
maintenance costs, longer truck life.

Here's why!

Internationals give you extra stamina:
you get the traditional truck stamina that
has kept Internationals first in heavy-
duty truck sales for 19 straight years.


Internationals give you extra economy,
you get lower operating and maintenance
costs because every International is all
truck. The new Silver Diamond engine
gives you the right balance of power, pep
ind economy.

You get the Comfo-Vision Cab, "roomiest
on the road." You get full front visibility;
more positive steering control.

But get all the facts. Come in, pick out
your new International pickups-now!
