ETAOIN SHRDLU by WESLEY R. RAMSEY SPublished in Port St. Joe But Devoted To the Con- tinued' Development of THE STAR TM4 V - TAR Candidates are making their last minute promises this week and feverishly seeking out another vote in preparation for the Municipal election which is scheduled for Tuesday of next week. The election will choose two Commissioners in groups Three and Four of the City Commission government. Ranger Hardy Lists Forest Fire Increa0e County Ranger H. A. Hardy states that the county's fire record for the month of August, 1954 shows that the county had six in- tentionally set fires burning a total of 12.2 acres, 16 lightning fires which burned 68.1 acres and one miscellaneous fire burning .2 acres for a total .wild fires of 23 burning 80.5 acres. Comparing with the month of August, 1953 the records show that the county had one in- tentionally set fire burning 1 acre, rneeing tne Commissioners were presented with the problem of finding more space in the crowd- ed Court House for the Grand Jury to convene in comfort. The Commissioners batted the mat- ter back and forth for awhile and then Commissioner Jim S. Daniels, who is chairman of the board, tabled the motionruntil later. Solving a problem by ig- noring it just won't work. The Court House isn't going to grow -by itself. If there isn't-room then an annex should be rented for the Grand Jury to convene in., It's a pity to have to do it, but we believe that the Comrission- ers tabling of the matter proved that they -realized the vast prob- lem 'and amount o work that would be involved in renovat- ing the Court House. We hope you folks will ap- preciate a project that is now in the making by your local mer- chants. They are now in the midst of collecting funds among themselves to buy more Christ- ,an2s decorations for the streets to help make our city more beau- tiful during the Christmas sea- soil. The merchants have receiv- ed $500.00 from the city and are attempting to collect at least $1,000.00 among them- selves to light up the main stems this Yule season. That is a lot cf money to come out of a fc.v pockets. The merchants are mak- ing the gesture to show you that they appreciate, your traded and desire you to shop in your own town. It isn't a selfish gesture, aswhat benefits them also bene- ;;t --ou. Yoar;ierehants py theI !ulk of taxes in the town, other than utilities and the more thde make and expand, the more tax- es they pay, thus the more mon- ey your city lias to spend for more and improved benefits i'o, you the citizen. It is a vicious cycle. The merchants are trying to do their part; how about you keeping up your end. ------------ JOHN BARRIER TO SPEAK AT METHODIST CHURCH John Barrier will preach at the /First Methodist Church Sunday eve- i.ng at 8:00 p.m. John has recently answered the call to the ministry.

It does not stand, and it does not seep as it once did. But while the idea for a tumbler dam on the Dead Lakes did not originate at the time the Woodruff Dam gates slammed shut. Woodruff Dam was the factor which brought the issue to a head. In M'ay, within 24 hours after the gates closed at Chattahoochee, home of Woodruff Dam, the water level dropped be- tween two and three feet. It has stayed low ever since. SIKES AUTHORS BILL At this time, representatives from the county went to Congressman Bob Sikes again and laid the prob- lem before him. In July he authored a bill which authorized a survey of the proposed dam site. Thursday, the 23rd of Septem- ber, is D-day, the day a govern- ment engineer from Mobile, a Colonel Fox, journeys to Wewa- hitchka to determine if such a dam as proposed is practicable. But this survey is only a part of the total program that is planned. There is going to be a lot of "speechifying" and there is going to be a lot of eating. And this part of the program is going to take place on the lawn of the Court House. MANY DIGNITARIES Among the dignitaries will be such familiar faces as Congress- man Bob Sikes, State Senator George Tapper. State Representa- tive Cecil'G. Costin, Jr., (of Gulf County' aml M.arion B. Knight (of Calhoun County), Director of the Game and Fresh Water Fish Com- mission, C. W. Pace, Attorney E. E. Calloway of Blountstown and many others. It is expected that many resi-' dents of the surrounding counties, especially those who have year after year had the pleasure of hauling string after string of de- lectible fish food from the Lakes, will be on hand. From three to four thousand in- terested spectators are expected. FREE LUNCH Although the affair will be a picnic-on-the-grounds for which all who attend are asked to bring a basket, nevertheless the citizens of Wewahitchka are pla ning to haVe on hand a plentiful siipply of fri d mullet, potato sala ~ huAi puppies, coffee and iced te'at This lunch will be free and will be ser- ved commencing at 1:15 p.m. after the speeches. Before that however, comes the inspection of the proposed site for the dam (10:00 a.m.) and the spee- ches. headed up by the Honorable Bob Sikes, who will deliver the main address (12:30). In between there will be short commentary by the dignitaries cited above. Following the lunch, there will be a business session in the Court Room at 2:00 p.m. to which e one Is invited.

THE NEIGHBORLY THING For some time now a sort of "whispered campaign" has been going on to dam the Dead Lakes to prevent such a catastrophe as has now befallen this fisherman's paradise. They are going down, foot by foot, due to a host of circumstances, that it is thought a dam would prevent. It has been the hue and cry of a few that a dam would keep the Dead Lakes at practically, a stand-still. The people of Wewahitchka and Gulf County and other Counties affected by the Dead Lakes have come up in arms since the advent of the Jim Woodruff Dam at Chatta- hoochee. That dam has robbed the Dead Lakes of MUCH water. A host of fish camps that formerly were on the banks of the Dead Lakes for unnumbered years, are now sitting high and dry separated by many yards from the water. The fresh water fishing business has been hurt considerably. The income of those living in close proximity to the lakes has been endan- gered, not from a force that "might come" but by a force that "has come". Most citizens are prone not to get too riled about a matter until it.happens, or, "don't cross that bridge until you come to it". These people have come to the bridge. They are now going to cross it. The past desciples of the Dead Lakes dam are now being recognized. The hue and cry of all Dead Lakes residents has risen up to dam the lakes. They have even picked out a spot for the dam. Thursday, September 23, an Army Engin- eer and Congressman Bob Sikes will be in We- wahitchka to inspect the proposed site of the Dead Lakes dam and the feasibility of such a project. In other words they will study the geo- . graphic layout and see if a dam will do the job. What's the purpose of this discourse? We don't live on the Dead Lakes? No brother, but we-you and I, that is, depend on it for many hours of fishing relaxation. This is looking .at it from the selfish side. There is another side to look at the matter from. Those people up there in Wewahitchka are our neighbors. They depend, to a great extent, on Dead Lakes fishing and tourists for a living. It is the only neighborly thing to do, to give our moral and physical support by being present in Wewahitchka on September 23 when the whole matter will be threshed out. Let's stick by our neighbors in this hour. They would stick by you. ELECTION! ELECTION! ELECTION! As you no doubt know by now, there will be a city election next Tuesday to choose two council seats It is your duty to vote. We won't say much about the election, as we are slightly prejudiced, but we will ask you to vote. Don't let a minority of the citizens pick your Commissioners for you.

Whale or ACCIDENTS WILL HAPPEN shale doesn't matter. "One thing Hunters, and other sportsmen as well, have a right to be proud of their safety record. For, much as we'll be hearing about hunting acci- dents from now through next January, these mis- haps will account for relatively few of the 9,- 600,000 Americans who are killed or injured in accidents of all sorts every year. But,'.so long as there are any hunting acci- dents, we shall have too many of them; and probably the best way to prevent or minimize them is to be prepared for what is always the unexpected. "Emergencies Don't Wait" Week is being observed this year at the outset of the hunting season, October 4th to 10th, with this idea in mind. But you don't need to wait until then to overhaul and restock your first-aid kit or home medicine cabinet. In the field, in the shop or kitchen, accidents won't wait while you get ready for them.

That word sounds bad and besides Mr. Rogers is with -the In- terstate and Foreign Commerce Committee and this is an official inspection tour." Okay, its a "trip" -not a "junket." Besides junket is something they feed' babies. ALWAYS READY TO SPEAK- Any time you want a rip-roaring speaker for a meeting, just call on "he-coon" Bob Sikes .Although he (doesn't usually like to make his talks outside Florida, Sikes lias agreed to help the Democratic cause anywhere in the U. S., if needed, during the coming cam- paign. That is the word from'Con- gressman Carl Albert of Oklaho- ma who is chairman of the Demo- cratic Congressional Campaign Committee speakers bureau and who is in charge of lining up the best speakers for trips around the country. In order to catch Albert's eye. a Congressman (a) can't be in a race himself, (b) must be a top- notch speaker, (c) must have an outstanding record. And Sikes plates high. So, the sage of Crest- view will be heard in hustings from coast to coast-that is if he isn't too busy speaking in Florida to get away. HOW DO YOU COOK IT?-Do you have a recipe for gizzard pie? We never heard of such a thing before. But, the word is out that the Florida State Society here is going to have a picnic this month, and the main dish is scheduled to be gizzard pie. It seems that the society had 20 pounds or more of chicken gizzards left over from their big summer barbecue, and Dick Stringfellow, president, wants to get them out of their deep freeze. Also on hand are several dozen cans of red kidney beans. Kidney be. ns and chicken gizzard's --some picnic. The way Audry Stringfello,/ talks about it, (she'll do the cooking), it sounds okay. But, before we go to the picnic w.'d like t see a recipe so' we'll know what we "re eating. No tell ing what else the Stringfellows might want. to clean out of their freezer. N'EW TAMPA T-V-Channel 13 in Tampa has been assigned. Lucky outfit is the Tampa Television. Company, headed by former Gover- nor Doyle Carlton. Not so lucky- or happy-were the two other lo- Lal groups who were trying to get the same spot-the Tampa Times and the Orange T-V Broadcasting Company headed by the O. Falks. MORE CAMPAIGN WORK - When Congressman Billy Matthews dropped by Washington Monday, hle stayed only long enough to get his family settled so the children could start school. Then he rushed back to Florida. One important stop will be Mulberry, Friday the 10th, where he will be principal speaker to a meeting of young democrats. This is to help Con- gressman Jim Haley-by aspiring the young Democrats to get to work. Haley has Republican oppo- sition in the person of "Smokey" Sutton-former Democratic mayor of Lalkeland now turned Republi- can. Haley should have no serious trouble. President Eisenhower's name won't be on the ballot to lend aid and comfort to his oppo- r.ent and besides the people of Florida never have taken to the idea of voting for mug-wumps. Ha- ley had stronger opposition last time and won by four to three. Look for a better margin this time. -------- A dry-fly line should have a long front taper; a wet-fly line doesn't need one. .. -M...

C. One editor refers to it -s "a spirited and compelling de- fense of the white Southerners' treatment of the Negro." The ar- ticle appears for the second time in this newspaper below.) By DAVIS LEE, Publisher The more I travel, listen and ob- serve the more convinced I become that the Negro has been grossly misled in this matter of segrega- tion and civil rights. It appears to me that the first things should come first, and that our economic well being is of great- r -significance than the privilege of right tobattend a white school or 1000 to associate with white people on an equal social basis provided by Su- Si-enie Court decisions and pressure legislation. As a Negro, and an American, I naturally want to see my race en- joy every right, privilege and oppor- tunity enjoyed by any other Ameri- can but I am opposed to any type of agitation designed to deprive the other fellow of a right to be asso- ciated with his own kind exclusive- ly. if he so desires. I would like o reserve such a right for myself and definitely would not want it en- croached upon by a Supreme Court edict or any other kind of interfer- ence. The right granted to one or two Negroes in Virginia or some other Southern state to enter a state graduate school is of no benefit to the millions of our people who. %.Gkwpsesup 9 4 aQ S *m CD CD C-, .r -c - CD CD cn are in need of the bare necessities of life, and when the fortunately situated members of the race con- duct such campaigns of agitation for selfish gain, the needy masses LS G WITH THE PURCHASE OR LEASE OF Tank On Or Before September 30, 1954 See Our Display of New GE Appliances West Fla.

Supervisor of Registration Mrs. C. G. Rish While the South does not provide ample or adequate modern school facilities for Negroes everywhere, neither does it provide completely modrrn facilities for white schools, because the money is not available fcr such a vast undertaking. How- ever, rapid progress has been made and in Montgomery, Alabama, and several' their communities the Neg- ro schools far exceed the white schools in modernization and phy- Fical appearance. Neither do the majority of Southern. Negroes nor the majority of the white approve of the present program to disrupt a custom which has served both races well down through the years and contributed so much to the, Negro's economic security. PPOSES A QUESTION Just what would be the future ed- ucational status of the Negro in the South if the legislatures of all the Southern states would enact legislation withdrawing state finan- cial support from all schools of higher learning, starting at the high school level?f Not only is this possible, bat if it should come to pass, the Negro would be unable to finance his own educational pro- gram. Negro financed educational programs have been a failure in tle past and nothing miraculous has happened which would cause Normal person to assume that the future holds any better pros- pect. Years ago Southern Negro educa- Lors made annual pilgrimages to the North to raise funds for the support of their schools and this riractice continued until Northern philanthropists found out that the Ncgr't educators were the benefi- ciaries instead of the schools. The A\ME Church, the Baptists, the Pres- byterians and some other minor de- nominations have been active in the field of Negro education, but their achievements have been nothing to write home about. Not only that, but every year charges have flown thick and fash anent the misappro- priations of school funds. The oper- ation of Negro schools has not only produced some of the nation's juic- iest scandals but is a damaging re- flection of the Negro's integrity and his ability to operate and finance an educational program. No race or nationality in this na- tion has excelled or equaled the Ne- Sgro in educational attainment and achievement, but this educational opportunity was not only created by white dollars but has been financed by white people throughout the na- tion. It is an unfortunate fact, that Negroes contribute very little to their own community well being and improvement and this fact should be taken into account by those agitators before they initiate their program for demands in the Field of education. Instead of spending thousands of dollars to finance unnecessary court fights for privileges which will cost the race millions in lost valuable friendships and racial good will, our leaders should go into the Negro ghettoes and force the local grocer to carry prime meats and sell to our people grade A )products which will make us healthy.

I was in Atlanta last t'eek and was greatly impressed by the large number o outstanding and progres- sive Negro businesses. Atlanta is strictly, a segregated city. I was in several New England cities this week where there is not supposed to be any segregation, and I found not one creditable Negro business.

The American race situation has not only taken on added' alarming proportions but has developed into a serious problem which could ex- plode and create a national crisis.
