Attorney General


Clarifies Florida's


New Election Law


Expenditures Made By Any-
'one for Candidate Must
Be Put On Record

State Attorney General Richard
Ervin this week, in response to a
request from the Florida Press 4s-
sociation, the Florida Association of
Broadcasters and the Associated
Dailies of Florida, has rendered an
opinion on the new election law
set up by the 1951 legislature.
The new law really inakes rough
going for individuals and corpora-
tions who in the past have assisted
candidates with contributions. Big
blow to the ego of editors is Er-
vin's opinion that editorials favor-
able to a candidate are not "a thing
of value" and, therefore are exempt
from the law.
The attorney general's opinion,
in part, follows:
"In the absence of court con-
struction of the law, the position is
here assumed that expenditures
made or expenses incurred by a cit-
izen not conencted directly or in-
directly with a candidate or the
management of his' candidacy in
connection with the publication of
the citizen's views which are favor-
able to a candidate by means of a
paid advertisement in a newspaper
or on the radio are, expenditures
made or expenses incurred in the
furtherance or aid of the-candidacy
of such candidate. Hence, any such
expenditures made must be author-
ized by the campaign treasurer of
the candidate and must be paid in
pursuance of the procedure set
forth, and neither a newspaper nor
a broadcasting company may law-
fully accept any money from a citi-
zen for the purposes and under cir-
cumstances described.
"Nothing in this answer is to be
construed as limiting the full right
of any citizen freely to express him-
self concerning any candidate, short
of the expenditure of funds or in-
curring of expense for such pur-
pose."
Another section of the law reads,
in part: "No contribution or expen-
diture or money or other thing of
value shall be made except
through the duly appointed cam-
paign treasurer of the candidate."
Regarding this, Ervin said: "The
words 'thing of value' as used are
to be read in-relation to contribu-
tions to a candidate as set forth in

Auto Tags for 1952 To
Go On Sale January 5

Uncle Edd Pridgeon, Gulf county
tax collector, states that the 1952
automobile license plates will go on
sale January 5 instead of the usual
Decemberl1, as was the practice in
the past.
Expiration date for purchase of
the new orange lettered tags on a
blue background will be February
20. No plates will be issued prior
to the January 5 initial purchasing
date, Uncle Edd stated.
The sale dates of the 1952 tags
conforms to a law passed by the
1951 state legislature due to the
fact that many folks declared they
were broke after Christmas and
couldn't afford to lay the cash on
the line for tags.

CLUB SPONSORING OUTDOOR
YULE DECORATION CONTEST

Once again the Port St. Joe Gar-
den Club is sponsoring a contest
for outdoor Christmas decorations.
However, cash prizes will not be
offered as in the past, due to the
fact that the club is using all funds
available for the purchase of trees
for planting on the city's streets.
Ribbon awards will be given.

Will Make House to- House
Selling Trees and Giving
Free Pine Seedlings

By HAZEL R. JONES
Everyone has been talking for
years about St. Joe's lack of trees.
The Port St. Joe Garden Club has
decided that the time has come to
stop talking and start doing some-
thing.
The club has adopted a tree-
planting plan as its one big project
for the year, as the members feel
there is nothing that will add so
much to the beauty of our city as
trees.
To raise money for this project,
the club is taking a silver offering
at their annual "Holiday Houses,"
and everyone is urged to see these
-beautifully decorated houses and
contribute to the tree-planting pro-
ject. Those who are not able to get
to the "Holiday Houses" and wish
to contribute to the project, may
call Mrs. I. C. Nedley, who will
drop by and pick up your contribu-
tion.
Labor and dirt for the project are
to be provided by the city commis-
sion and the state highway depart-
ment, so every cent contributed
will be used to purchase trees.
The Garden Club. will have a va-
riety of trees for sale to individuals
in January and will have free pine
seedlings, contributed by the St.
Joe Paper Company, for distribu-
tion to anyone desiring to plant
them in their own yards. The club
is planning to put on a house-to-
house canvass in January selling
trees and distributing pine seed-
lings.
The club hopes to get the follow-
ing plantings done this winter, and
gives the.estimated expense (trees
7 to. 8 feet in height will cost 65c
each):
Highway 98 from 9th Street to
5th Street-78 cherry laurels and
78 red buds. Cost $101.40.
Highway 98 from 1st Street to
paper mill entrance-90 live oaks
and 78 red buds. Cost $117.00.
Fifth Street to complete planting
of crepe myrtles-175. Cost $113.75.
School grounds-30 trees. Cost
$19.50.
Long Avenue from 11th Street to
16th Street-240 mimosa. To cost
$165.00.

Hillbilly Band To Play At
Rich Super-Market Today

Toby Dowdy and his Dixie Lily
Hi-Pointers Band will appear in
person today (Friday) at Rich's
Super-Market for the pleasure of
customers, particularly those who
like hillbilly music.
While we're on Rich's Market, we
would like to thank E. J. Rich for
a big bag of oranges, grapefruit
and apples, plus a half dozen ears
of corn with which he "sampled"
us recently. Seems we're a guinea
pig for the store, and if we like the
samples Mr. Rich stocks 'em up
heavy.

* It is said that the coming year's
weather may be forecasted by
cocking pn eye at the sky during
Christmas week. Here are a few of
the beliefs; conflicting inr many de-
tails:
* If the sun shines through the ap-
ple tree oh Christmas Day, there
will be a good crop the following
year.
* If ice will bear a man before
Christmas, it will not bear a mouse
afterwards.
* Thunder and lightning Christmas
week means much snow the balance
of the winter.

SChristmas Music
By Bach, Handel
For a great many people the mu-
sic of Bach and Handel make diffi-
cult listening until Christmas
comes around. Then, suddenly, ev-
erybody starts singing and humming
tunes by the two old masters.
The reason for this is that both
Bach and Handel were church mq-
'sicians. One of their tasks was to
compose songs for church congrega-
'tions to sing. They proved them-
selves masters of beautiful, easily
followed melodies in their Christmas
music. Our most famous Christmas
oratories 'and carols came from
Bach and Handel.
"How Brightly Beams the Morn-
ing Star" was composed by Bach
and his "Christmas Oratorio" con-
tains the themes of several' other
popular chorales.
In almost every town and village
in America/this Christmas a church
choir will render at least a portion
:of George Frederick Handel's the
"Messiah." When carolers sing
"Joy to the World" they'll be sing-
ing part of the "Messiah" too, for,
that carol comes from themes found
'ri the great oratorio. Handel also
composed the musical theme of
"While Shepherds Watched Their
Flocks."
It is a strange fact, but both Bach
and Handel were born in 1685. lived
for many years within thirty miles
of each other, and never met. Yet
today, the Christmas music they
wrote is sung by men, women and
children in countless churches of
many faiths all over the world.

they can play them.

Ornament. 1'i2aina

A CO l e ^>1du J, itr
Those colored .glass ornaments
that we h ang on our Christmas
mas trees used to come from Ger-
many, Czechoslovakia and Poland.
A small number were made in Japan.
When the war cut off these supplies.
American glass manufacturers, who
had never bothered with these prod-
ucts before, turned part of their fa-
cilities over to making the pretty
gewgaws. Mechanical methods were
soon developed that could blow as
many ornaments in an hour as
a European glassblower could make
in a month. Thus modern efficien-
cy may doom this picturesque little
industry, carried on in the moun-
tainous towns of eastern Europe.
Ornament, making is a typical
"cottage industry" in the little vil-
lages that cling to the steep moun-
tainsides. Families specialize in cer-
tain shapes and designs, patterns
that may date back for hundreds of
years unchanged. The father, using
a bunsen burner, carefully blows
the thin glass tubing to the de-
sired shape, with the aid of an iron
mold. His son acting as mold
boy, removes the hot ornament to a
cooling table. Next the mother sil-
vers the inside, and finally the
daughter applies paint and perhaps
decorative designs.

CIRCUIT REVISION NEEDED
The announcement of State Attorney Mercer
P. Spear that he would not seek re-election next
year because of the increasing volume of work
required at inadequate pay and the loss of his
private law practice, certainly emphasizes the
need of a revision of the fourteenth judicial
circuit.
As it is now composed, six counties are served
with two of them large enough to comprise cir-
cuits themselves- Bay and Jackson. The other
four counties, Holmes, Calhoun, Washington
and Gulf, might well be grouped into one cir-
cuit, or better still, Holmes and Washington
placed in one circuit by themselves and Calhoun
and Gulf in another.
It is going to be rather difficult to get a good
attorney to sacrifice a lucrative law practice to
serve as state's attorney at the present salary
level, and unless a revision of the circuit is made
or the present salary greatly upped, the four-
teenth circuit may find itself without an able
prosecutor.
: We are sure the people of the circuit will re-

City Tax Rate Set At 11/2 Mills
The tax rate for the city of Port
St. Joe was set at 11% mills for
the coming year by the city com-
mission Tuesday evening. The rate
is based upon an assessed valua-
tion of approximately $1,540,000 and
will raise $16,079 in revenue. Total
cost of operating the city during
the year is placed at $71,235, which
includes $15,100 fbr interest and
sinking fund on dredging bonds,
$975 to complete payment on street
work, $10,000 for street work in the
coming year, and $25,000, for com-
pletion of the new municipal hos-
pital, the latter two items being
contingent upon a $35,000 RFC loan.
'The actual budget is $20,260.

Ga., at the home of the groom's
brother, B. I. Smith. The groom has
been employed at Tyndall Field,

gret to see Mr. Spear step down, but under the
circumstances we feel that no one can justly find
fault with his decision.-Holmes Co. Advertiser.

While the bringing of Santa Claus to town
last Saturday by the Retail Merchants Associa-
tion was a real gesture of good will on the part
of the sponsoring organization, it seems that
those conducting the affair fell down on the de-
tail of distribution of the gifts. The candy was
thrown out loose by those on the fire truck
carrying Saint Nick, and a large part of it was
trampled into the ground by the rush of small
fry. Also, some of the smaller children failed to
get any of the candy. It seems the majority of
the mothers present with their children were
considerably het up about it all, from what we
have heard. In fact, one of them remarked, "I'm
not a football player, and neither is my four-
year-old son-you would have had to been a foot-
ball tackle to have gotten any of that candy. We
didn't." We imagine the merchants got the idea
of tossing the candy out loose from the story in
the. Panama City paper which stated that the
Santa there would toss candy to the children
along his route. But what they perhaps didn't
know was that the candy was wrapped.

A lot of us pause over the pronunciation of
some of the names of Korean towns and cities
appearing in the undeclared war news, forgetting
that here in Florida we have towns named Poc-
ataw, Salofka, Kolopec, Chuluota, Bithla, Holo-
paw and Wewahitchka.

As we get it, the difference between the
farmer and the boll weevil controlling the cotton
crop is that the boll weevil doesn't get paid by
the government.

The first touch of winter has finally hit us,
and soon we will be feeling the touch of the
snowbird panhandlers.

GARDEN NOTES'
PORT ST. JOE GARDEN CLUB
Geraniums Are In Again!
Geraniums go with today's silver-
gray and bleached wood finishes as
tangy cheese goes with crackers ausi
piping hot coffee.
Geranimus, of all that willingly
flower indoors, don't need air more
humid than the average living room
provides. They mumt have all pos-
sible sun if they are to bloom in the
house. They are more effective in
'blocky oblong containers of pottery
and metal than they were in great-
grandmother's red clay pots.
For color accent, be guided by
your florist. Take the kinds he rec-
ommends as the.best.
Don't show your appreciation by
over-watering geraniums. Let the
soil get dry to the touch each time
before you give water again.
New Geraniums From Old
Your favorite geraniums probably
are beginning to be a little worse
for wear-especially if they have
been growing in pots. There is no
need to carry over old, unsightly
plants wheiryou can have new and
more desirable ones each year.
Potting 'up the geraniums from'
the garden seldom works well. Take
cuttings or slips from your old ger-
aniums to give you fine, bushy
plants for this winter. Follow the
procedure below, and scraggly ger-
aniums or those in beds will give
you plenty of fine, bushy, blooming
plants:
1. Cut off all the shoots. Discard
the old plant, since its new growth
stands little chance of being sym-
metrical, even if you repot it.
2. Save the top 4-inch piece" of
each shoot. If you want to start as
many new plants as possible, you
can also root the next highest 4-inch
piece, but more slowly. Top cut-
tings grow into much better shaped
plants. Make bottom cut on slip
slightly below the point leaf stem
is attached.
3. Next remove the leaves from
lower part of stem. Use sand or
vermiculite for potting, and insert


each stem in a hole poked about 2
inches deep with a pencil. :Water
.horoughly to settle sand around the
stem. Put the pot of cuttings in a
spot where it won't get direct sun,
and keep sand moist.

Secret Gifts Left
By St. Nicholas
The story of how St. Nicholas be-
came associated with secret. gift-
giving, and even today comes co-
vertly at night to leave his, pres-
ents, is one of the most important
in the history of his life.
Once upon a time there was a
man with three daughters, all of
them wishing to marry, but with no
dowry forthcoming. Sorry, indeed,
was their plight. Their father had
about decided to sell them as slaves,
but the good St. Nicholas heard of
it, and filling a purse with gold,
went quietly by night to their home.
Seeing a window open, he threw in
the bag of gold and then stole away
in the night. This money enabled
the eldest daughter to marry. A
second and a third time St. Nich-
olas made the trip and finally all
three daughters were married.
- After the saint's third trip, the
girls' father, who had been watch-
ing to see who brought the gifts,
ran after St. Nicholas and thanked
him for his kindness. St. Nicholas
made him promise not to divulge
his gift-giving and after that he al-
ways deposited his presents so se-
cretly that no one ever saw him.
Yet people knew, somehow, that it
was he who brought gifts during the
night, and so whenever they found
a package mysteriously -delivered
they instantly exclaimed, "St. Nich-
olas has brought it!"

NEW ELECTION LAW
(Continued, from page 1)
the law: 'monies, materials, sup-
gflies or by way of loan.' An'edi-
torial favorable; to a candidate ap-
pearing in a newspaper is not a
'thing of value' as so construed.
Hence, nothing in the election code
lawfully prohibits the editor of any
newspaper in Florida from publish-
ing therein an editorial friendly to
any candidate for nomination for
office in a primary election."
One section of the old state elec-
tion law was carried over into the
new code, in regard to advertising,
which reads: "All political adver-
tisements and all campaign litera-
ture published or circulated prior
to or on the day of any election
shall be signed by the author there-
of, and if the same is being pub-
lished and circulated by a club or
committee, then it shall be signed
by the chairman and secretary of
such club or committee, and if such
literature is in circular form it shall
have upon it the name of the pub-
lisher or printer. All political ad-
vertisements appearing in newspa-
pers shall be marked 'paid adver-
tisements.' Any person who pub-
lishes or circulates' any campaign
literature in violation of this section
shall, upon conviction, be guilty of
a misdemeanor."
So there you are folks. If you
want to support any of your favor-
ite candidates for any office, be
sure that your contributions of
"monies, materials, supplies or by
way of a loan" are on record and
have been officially reported, other-
wise, should an opposing candidate
discover that you've been assisting
his opponent on the sly, you will be
in plenty of trouble, because this
new law has teeth in it and you
could go to the hoosegow or pay
out a juicy chunk of dough in the
way of a fine if found guilty.
Si----
We may have better legislation
when we have better legislators,
but we won't get them until we
have better people.
