PORT ST. JOE S A Progressive Community With a Modern, Progressive Weekly Newspaper THE STAR THE STAR Official Paper for Gulf County, Devoted To the SContinued Development I of the Entire County "Port St. Joe -The Outlet Port for the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee Valley" VOLUME XV FORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA, FRIDAY, JANUARY 25, 1952 NUMBER 18 ri I ,II Saltz Tells Listeners That Government Is 'Mothers' March On Polio" Set for Jan. 31 Those Desiring To Make Contribu- Biggest Competitor tion To March of Dimes Asked i t Cr To Have Porch Light Burning Head of State Retail Associ- ation Urges Co-operation To Cut 'Rising Costs Speaking before a special meet- ing of the Port St. Joe Retail Mer- chants Association Thursday night, of last week, J. E. Saltz of St. Petersburg, president of the Florida State Retailers Association, said, in part: "As you and I so well know, gov- ernment has become our biggest competitor. Our biggest headaches, our most serious problems, stem from legislation, regulation and tax- ation. What will happen next? How long can we survive? "Yes, truly, government today is by far our biggest competitor for the consumer's dollar. Thirty-four cents out of every dollar he earns is taken from the average Ameri- can in taxes, both direct and hid- den. There are, for example, 154 separate hidden taxes in a pair of shoes. "Actually, the average American taxpayer works one-third of each year for government-federal, state and local. All he earns from Janu- ary 1 to around May 1 each year, he must pay out in taxes. On May 1, then, for the first time,he .begins working for himself. There is a serious question as to how much higher, if any. taxes can go and, .still sustain our cherished i;e of" .life." I I : , After pointing out that every man, woman and child in Florida is carrying on their shoulders $1,660 as their share of the federal debt, Saltz went on to say that cost of government can be cut. "I am confident,'l he said, "that we can have good government at less cost if we will work for it. But business men must get deeper and deeper into politics or the bureau- crats and the politicians will get deeper and deeper into our busi- ness. Either we militantly defend our right to do business under the free enterprise system or face the prospects of losing that right. The time for action-'for united effort- is now!

Porch lights will be burning for an hourein Port St. Joe and vicinity on the night of January 31 when the "Mother's March On Polio" will be launched as the climax of the 1952 March of Dimes, it was announced yesterday by Mrs. W. J. Strickland, director of the event. The burning lights of homes will be the signal to a small army of volunteer mothers that they will be welcomed to receive contributions to the March of Dimes. The Gulf county March of Dimes committee has designated the hour between 6:30 and 7:30 p. m. as the time for this dramatic' windup of the campaign against infantile par- alysis. The local "Mothers' March On Polio" is part of an identical na- tionwide movement in which hun- dreds of thousands of mothers will participate. "Turn on your porch light to fight polio" is the theme of this special appeal by the mothers on behalf of the men, women and children who have suffered from infantile paraly- sis, said Mrs. Strickland. "Here's the way the Mothers' March will work," she said. "Be- tween the hours designated, every residelit of this area will be asked to turn on his porch light-or to burn a light in the 'window-if he Wishes to make: a, 'ontribution to the March of Dimes. :,'"Then the mothers will,march, street. by street, block by block,: 3,000 Sail ./I St. Joe Bank Shows Continued Growth All Departments Show Considerable Increase Directors and Of- ficers Elected In the annual report to the stock- holders of the Florida Bank at Port St. Joe, President S.

More Than 3000 Trees Planted In Garden Club Drive Beautification Plan Will Add Much To City In Years To Come The Port St. Joe Garden Club is very happy to report through The Star that trees have been set out all over Port St. Joe and in neigh- boring communities during the past week. Individuals in this city set out 225, residents of Oak Grove 16, Highland View 38 and,White City 13. In addition to these, 2500 pine seedlings, donated by the St. Joe ,Paper Company, have been set out, 150 at the high school, 150 at the negro school and the remainder by individuals. Those who failed to get all of these free pine seedlings they wanted are asked to get in touch with Mrs. F. L. Jones, as there will be more available today. Highway 98 from 5th Street to 10th Street has recently been lined with redbuds and cherry laurels, and 175 crepe myrtles will 'be set out on 5th Street this week. In ad- dition, 17 shade trees have been set out at the grammar school and 10' at the iegro school.

Our Country Right or Wroni NOBODY CAN WIN (Reprinted from Jacksonville Times-Union) Those groups in the United States which look to the federal government as a source of income, either directly as in subsidies or indirectly as in ipessure to raise wages, should take a glance at historyy and then peer into the future. Even a casual study of history will reveal the wIl economic and social disaster that arrives hard on the heels of uncontrolled inflation; no segment of the population escapes the utmost distress and suffering. Only the most drastic measures enable a nation to survive such an upheaval, and some never recover. An honest comparison of past inflationary pe- riods with present conditions in -the U. S. will show the mistakes this country has made and is continuing to make. The parallels are too close for comfort. It is axiomatic that no government can con- tinue indefinitely to spend beyond its income. Huge borrowing, which is highly inflationary, becomes necessary, Public indebtedness reaches the point where it is impossible for the govern- ment to repay. There inevitably comes a time when currency is orthletss, and a truck load of paper money will not buy a loaf of bread. The record of the present administration speaks for itself. All the previous administrations of the United States, from George Washington through Franklin D. Roosevelt, collected and spent $248,- 000,000,000-over a period of 156 years. Under President Truman, the government has collected and spent $260,000,000,000 in just over six years. The present national debt is close to $260,000,- 000,000, with the interest alone amounting to about $6,000,000,000 annually. Yet, the end is not in sight. grip on an economy. Money income Even more ,dangerous than the goes up, but prices are always two present size of th'e public debt is steps ahead. the habit of government officials of ignoring economic principles. Sec- retary of Labor Tobin recently in- formed a CIO group that half the workers in the U. S. deserve raises to compensate for higher living -costs. If he had said that the workers merit more money because they have contributed to an increaseof goods or services, he would have been on solid ground. But to base wage raises merely on costs of liv- ing is to give the spiral of inflatioli a vicious twirl. Secretary Tobin should know that wages never keep pace with rising costs when inflation has its deadly Leaders of groups seeking arti- ficial support from the government are ethically bound to teach the economic facts of life. They should let it be clear that inflation even- tually destroys the value of savings accounts and insurance policies, renders pensions almost worthless, and reduces the real value of wages. If this lesson is taken.to heart, all groups will recognize the dan- gers inherent in inflation and insist upon the government reversing its path.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 25, 1952 _ __- n-..- '-CII Il- -Im -. =a Buuyr~ urrull~~~ Big Red's iura By Helen Langworthy THE reason my husband has been nick-named Big Red is because he's over six feet tall, carrot-topped and peppery dispositioned. While painting our home -3 Minute and reaching far 3 M e out from-the top Fiction of the ladder Big Red fell. There were more people than the doctor and r to realize that my husband had broken his leg. He was howling mad! 'Surprisingly, though, Big Red wasn't too bad a patient during his long hospiLlization. Yes, leave it to him-he did a royal job, nothing simple and routine! His fracture required specialists, operations and e uough paraphernalia around his bed to make. it resemble Franken- stein's nightmare. That's my Big Red! During those long months be- fore he came home Big Red said that the thing he was most thankful for was that he was away from the Sanders, the Markhams, and the Keatings. Perhaps in other neighborhoods there are more family's like those three. If so, I can sympathize with all who live neighbor te thoroughly nice but thoroughly tiresome folks. "If this cure doesn't work," Big Red agreed, "I could al- ways do a repeat." Take Mr. Sanders, for instance. He has gall stones. The way he de- scribes the pain, the many medi- cines the doctors have tried to dis- solve them is something to remem- ber for days. When anyone suggests an operation, Mr. Sanders gasps, "Oh, no!" You wonder if one would rob him of his only conversational topic! Little Mrs. Markham is sweet and lovely. She seems so-until she men- tions she didn't sleep last night, the night before and for weeks has heard the clock strike every hour! She's tried counting sheep, hot milk and drugs. Nothing helps. Then there's Mr. Keating. He's next in size to Big Red. His woe is an allergy. When he and his wife' come in maybe it's the new daven- port pillow that he stares at like it came from Mars. He's spent hours receiving painful shots and telling about them. WHEN, ; Big e Red finally came home 'and was established in bed he told me to ask the Sanders, Markhams and the Keating's all to visit. Those bores-and all at once. Wondering if complex broken legs could upset a man mentally, I argued gently. Big Red roared so I asked the three couples over. It must have been 'the first time anyone had dared having the three chronic complained 'under one ro6f. How the conversation flew! "My painful gall stones-" was inter- rupted with, "-not a good night's sleep for three years!" Then Mr. Keating pounced on one' of Big Red's fluffy blankets and gave us a run down on awful allergies. I looked at my husband. He was smil- ing! Then he began! With a voice that could make a general stand at attention, Big Red described the troubles he'd undergone. He reeled off treatments, doctors, specialists, traction affairs, the silver plates that had been ap- plied to his leg bone during the operations, the pain, the sleep- lessness, the discomfort, the way the doctors had been per- plexed, hundreds of shots! It was terrific. I think my mouth flew open and I forgot to shut it. When our company looked at each other in extreme boredom and wig- gled their feet experimentally 2s though they wondered how soon they could decently leave,-Big Red winked at me! He took a deep breath-and began again on the hor- rors of his case. The three couples almost'ran for the front doe-. Out on the porch, with Big Red's voice just a muted roar our guests expressed their sympathy. "Such a one track mind!" said Mr. Keat- ing. "Don't you get tired ot hearing him talk about pain?" asked Mr. Sanders who never tires of his! I stepped inside, closed the aoor on their pity. Then I went to Big Red and we giggled, we roared with laughter. Big Red's bed shook. "I can't wait 'til .we see them . next time," I told him, finally. "''If this cure doesn't work," Big Red agreed, "I could always do a repeat!" Somehow, though-I'm sure there will be no need!

LEGAL ADVERTISING Cost of Caring for Polio Victims Is On Upgrade Coldewey Calls On All Residents of Gulf County To Enlist In March of Dimes Tom Coldewey of the St. Joe Pa- per Company today called on all residents of Gulf county to enlist in the 1952 March of Dimes. "I have no doubt," said Colde- wey, "that most of the people in this area have already joined the March of Dimes at least-once, but in the interest of the welfare of our local boys and girls, I suggest that we all give again as a token of our awareness of the great need this year." Coldewey said that by the end of 1951 the nation had recorded some 132,000 polio cases in four years, and during that same time span the National Foundation for Infan- tile Paralysis and its chapters spent $79,000,000 for patient-care. "That $79,000,000," continued Col- dewey, "compares to all expendi- ture of $41,000,000 in March of Dimes funds for the same purpose in the entire previous decade." "The national foundation has as- sisted, in whole or in part, four out of' every five persons stricken with polio. But there seem to be more and more cases. The March of Dimes has been unable to keep pace with infantile paralysis and $5,000,- 000 is owing right now on last year's bills. It's up to all of us to quicken the 'March' by giving to this fight against a vicious disease.' In Gulf county the local unit of the national foundation spent $1,- 179.00 during the past year, said Tom, aiding four local polio pati- ents, of whom three were victims of prior outbreaks. "Thus you see," he concluded, "the March of -Dimes must cope with-.rising incidence, rising costs and, at the same time, a rising num- ber of long-term cases. It can only\ do this through solid public sup- port. Each Gulf county resident must do his utmost." -------- KIWANIS CLUB (Continued from page 1) William Rasmussen.
