The opposition is growing every day for various and sundry reasons. The other day there was some ,question as to whether or not Government matching money could be used in conjunction with the bond money. A hurried explana- tion scotched that rumor in the bud, but there will probably be magnitudes of other little "stumbling blocks" crop up before the bonds are sold... or even before the voters approve or disapprove of the program.

Florida Pulpwood Company en- tered a bid for $5.26 per unit. This bid was rejected because the Board members thought the price was too low since the avergae paid for pulpwood stumpage is $6.00 per unit. The St. Joe Paper Company bid $23.625 .per unit delivered to the mill in Port St. Joe. This bid was rejected since the County didn't have the facilities to prepare and haul the wood to the paper mill. There is an estimated 200 units of pulpwood to be sold.

There was only one preventable accident and the total property damage amounted to $45.00. No personal injuries were sustained Atlanta and West Point Railroad will build a spur track into the new building. The Atlanta plant will supply corrugated containers to customers in central and northern Georgia, a territory currently served, in most areas, by the company's Port St. Joe and Birmingham box plants. Tom S. Coldewey, St. Joe Paper vice president, said: "The new At- lanta plant is simply a continua- tion of the company's plan to cre- ate additional outlets for the pro- duction of our paper mill here at Port St. Joe. We have built nine new box plants in the last five years and the end is still not in sight." "The program is already show- ing impressive results", he said. '"This year, except for a week end shutdown last month to make some necessary repairs, we have run the mill continuously and expect to do so for the foreseeable future. Both the community and the company stand to benefit'from capacity op- eration and our management is making every effort to see that we have the business to keep go- ing at this rate." St. Joe's new box plant will have. all new equipment including an 87- inch corrugator which will make it comparable in terms of production potential to the Port St. Joe box plant. Atlanta's equipment will also comprise three printer-slotters, a folder-gluer, several stitchers and automatic tapers, a die press, an eccentric slotter, partition slotter and band saws. The site is in College Park, a suburb of Atlanta, and adjoins the East-West Expressway. Entrance to the plant, which will face the interior of the lot, will be via a new road to be named "St. Joe Street". + Cancer Society Will Name New Officers The Gulf County Unit of the American Cancer Society will hold its annual meeting for the election of Directors and Officers for 1965- 66, Monday, August 16 at 10:00 a.m. The meeting will be held at the St. James Episcopal Parish House.

All persons who are entitled to So- cial Security benefits will receive a notice with their Social Security check sometime during the period September through Novermber to enroll for medical insurance.

Hospital insurance provides up to 90 days inpatient hospital care each spell of illness; up to 100 days in a skilled nursing home; and up to 100 home health visits each spell of illness, Carey continued. A spell of illness begins the day you are admitted to a hospital and ends when you have been out of the hospital or skilled nursing home for 60 consecutive days. Thus, it is possible to have more than one spell of illness in each calen- dar year. Generally speaking, all of your hospital and skilled nurs- ing home expenses are paid under hospital insurance after you pay a $40.00 deductible. After the 60th day in a hospital and after the 20th day in a skilled nursing home, you pay part of the expenses. $10.00 a day for the stay in the hospital after 60 days and $5.00 a day for the stay in a skilled nursing home after the 20th day. In addition, hospital insurance provides outpa- tient diagnostic services. The de- ductible on this is $20.00 each di- agnostic study, and then hospital insurance pays 80% of the cost of the study. A diagnostic study cov- ers the period of 20 days outpatient diagnostic service at the same hos- pital. Medical insurance, which will cost you $3.00 per month, will pay 80% of your doctor's bills after a $50.00 deductible each calendar year. Doctor's bills will be covered whether they are home visits ,of- fice visits, or visits while you are in the hospital.

Speaker Tells Rotary Arab World Is THE STAR, Port St. Joe Fla Helpful To United States Interests Jayceettes To Hold "Arab-American relations are I that such states along with another Rridn' CICCn C I Bia Classes r l STORE MANAGER'S ( . 1. -, ^ywf /f 0 W An American citizen (born in Massachusetts in 1901) and a grad- uate of Amherst College (1925), Mr. Batal lived in the Middle East dur- ing five separate periods of ex- tended residence (since,1943). He said: "12 of the 13 politically inde- pendent Arab states are Muslim, KIRKMAN SAYS PATROL STILL STRESSING SAFETY ON ROADS Tallahassee Florida Highway Patrol Director ,Colonel H. N. Kirk- man in his second weekly report to the driving public on the Flor- ida Highway Patrol's Additional- Traffic Enforcement Program, stated, "Florida's Highway Troop- ers are still continuing to act with swiftness and frequency against those drivers committing traffic violations which have caused Flor- i ida's highway death toll to climb." "This increased enforcement on hazardous moving violations occur- ring in the state's most dangerous areas has resulted in the arrest of five thousand, five hundred and fourteen traffic violators during the first two weeks of operations," reported Kirkman. The Patrol's new enforcement technique aimed at curbing the ris- ino highway death toll, calls for FHP Troop Commanders state Wide to assign additional personnel on pre-selected roads in areas where the greater number of wrecks have occurred with specific instructions to rigidly enforce the law. 'Results of this report indicate a substantial number of the five thousand plus arrests, occurred af. ter sundown and many of these were vacation drivers. Kirkman noted that night driv- ing may be the most comfortable time to be on the road with less heat and less traffic, but it's also more hazardous than daylight driv- ing. Darkness reduces vision con- siderably and increases errors in judgment of speed and distance. "At night, you can see an unex- pected object only half as far ahead as you can see an expected one- a real problem when you're driv- ing in unfamiliar territory. Vision defects-if you have any-are ex- aggerated at night," stated Col. Kirkman. The FHP makes these sugges- tions for pleasant, uneventful night driving: Drive at reduced speed with increased alertness. Pass with extra care, and leave greater space between you and the driver ahead. Get off the road or change drivers at the first sign of drowsiness. Commander Kirkman concluded by saking, "After all, what's the rush? You're on vacation not a road race-remember?" such that the United States is not dozen Muslim but non-Arab states V compelled to send armed forces compose a strong bloc among the The Port St. Joe Jayceettes will into the Arab world to prevent 62 nations that make up the Asian- sponsor bridge classes at the St. communist aggression as our coun- African majority in the U.
