.TH STAR "Port St. Joe-The Outlet Port for the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee Valley" MONEY TALKS-Let's keep it where we can speak with it once in a while-Trade with your home town merchants! EWENTY-EIGHTH YE 'R - , PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 19, 1965 OAK GROVE INCLUDED IN CITY'S BOUNDARY EXPANSION PLANS -Beetles Appear In Centennial Building The beetles have arrived in Port St. Joe. This announcement was made to the City Council Tuesday night. 'The beetles are to be found in force at the Centennial Build- Sing. A fine roomy place for them to perform. But, like many people, the Commission took a dim view of the beetles using the Centennial' Building for their performances and will hire an exterminator to get rid of them along with the termites. LL--.--;._-L7 "- Talk of extension of the City Limits of Port St. Joe was expanded upon Tuesday night at the City Commission meet- ing. A report on procedure for extension of the limits was reported to the Commission by attorney Cecil G. Costin, Jr. After considerable discussion on expansion of the limits, the Board agreed to ask Costin to bring before the Commission, at its next meeting, procedures for the annexation of Oak Grove into the Port St. Joe corporate limits. In making his presentation, Cos- tin told the Board that should they Oak Grove area' for more residen- decide to annex any area which ,, ,,,, ,,,-1 a wro rrvnr this contained more than 10 registered voters (in the county) an election must be held. He said that in areas containing less than 10 electors, no election was necessary, and the City could annex the area by or- dinance. In the original thinking for ex- pansion, only the Kenney's Mill area contained enough people to make an election necessary. Since the City was expanding by sections, all of the area East of Port St. Joe could be incorporated by or- dinance. An election would be ne- cessary to expand Northward. Original thinking was to expand Southward to the Niles Road and to the Ward Ridge limits. Commis- sioner Coldewey suggested Tues- day night that Oak Grove be in- cluded in expansion plans and at- torney Costin was instructed to be at next week's meeting with the necessary steps to be followed. It was pointed out that incorpor- ation to the City would provide the area with adequate water, sewage disposal, police and fire protection. Part of the Oak' Grove area is al- ready heavily populated and is served by septic tanks for sewage disposal. In addition to the utility services, it is estimated that insurance rates for the citizens of the area will be reduced by approximately one half with the advent of adequate fire protection. ------------- '31 fO Landmark Being Torn Down A Port St. Joe landmark be- gan coming down this week af- ter 55 years of occupying the corner of Reid Avenue and Third Street. The old building, pictured above in the process of being dismantled, was known as the old Stone building. According to local attorney Silas R. Stone, he was born upstairs in the build- ing in 1914 and he believes the structure was built by his father at least four years prior. The building is the oldest com- mercial structure standing in downtown Port St. Joe today- and it won't be standing long. Stone said that the wooden struc- ture was one of the very first store buildings to be built in Port St. Joe. The old building has quite a history. In its early days it housed a boarding house upstairs and a general merchandise store and commissary downstairs. In the rear of the building, behind the door which opened on Third Street, was Port St. Joe's first post office, with T. H. Stone as postmaster. The building was sold recently to P. W. Petty of Port St. Joe with the stipulation that it be re- moved from its present site. In the tearing down, heart pine timbers are being found such as are not available now at any price. SCatching Sharks... Two At A Ti e SPictured above is Jerry Smith, son of Mr. and Mrs. Al Smith with a pair of sharks caught in St. Joseph Bay while trolling with his father. What's so odd about catching two small sharks in the Bay? The fact that he caught both of them at the same time! Jerry had two hooks on the same line and caught both sharks at once. -Star photo Gulf Coast Junior College Will Again Offer Courses Taught At Mexico Beach A regular coD.lege-credit course will be offered this fall at the Gulf Coast Junior College Edu- cation Center ot Mexico Beach, it was announced this week.

In past meetings it has been the opinion of the Board that the City should have some waterfront pro- perty and should maintain a boat landing station on the water. One of the areas to be consider- ed for boat launching is the land- ing on the Gulf County Canal es- tablished by the St. Joe.Boat Club. The City has been asked by the land owner, St. Joe Paper Com- pany, to survey the property and establish points on the area the City wishes to purchase.

NUMBER 49 ~------- A4-- Curry Will Head Gulf County Unit Of Cancer Society During Next Year The "Do-Gooders" will have you. believe all criminals are produced by bad housing, broken families and unequal job opportunities. Hogwash. This great country was built by people who came from bad housing and surmounted un- equal economic opportunities. *., * Only 10% of our population is Negro. Yet, they commit 67% of the crimes. Of course, some of it's to be expected when Negro leaders encourage civil disobedience, and condone Negroes' refusal to obey laws they don't like. Also, threats of "long hot summers" are the kind of movement that spawn lawlessness. CORE and NAACP demand equality. Surely they mean equality in everything. Isn't this an excel- lent starting place? ,. .* If your neighbor gets mad and breaks your window, who pays? When union goons destroy property during a strike, who should pay? The unions? Well, look what happened in the re- cent New York taxi strike. Self- employed cabbies, who own their cabs, weren't involved in the- unionization drive. Yet, some of their cabs were stoned and burned.' Who was stuck with the bill? The poor cabbie struggling to make it on his own. .* .Be afraid, America, tremble. The nuclear holocaust is com- ing. This kind of talk is broad- cast throughout our land. But, it's never heard in Russia. Isn't this a planned program to weaken our will to resist? * What would the Founding Fathers say? They enacted the Bill of Rights to protect the people from. excessive power of central government. Now the power of the federal courts is being used to protect Commu- nists who want to destroy our government. * Addled liberals say it's okay for Viet Cong terrorists to bomb restaurants, hotels, and embas- rHE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. sies in Saigon, but not for us to bomb Hanoi. Maybe it's an ex- ample of "Chinese logic." Most people don't seem to have time to think about poli- tics. But, politicians always have time to think about prom- ising the people anything to get more power. Not so long ago the Com- munists preached coexistence. Now even some of our leading executives have allowed it to infiltrate, their reasoning. In a speech before the UN they paraphrased Red preaching. They said, we will have "co- existence or coextinction." It just goes to show how much the Commie line has become part of American thinking. The Communist strategy is simple: stubbornly hold your line, always say "nyet," and the Americans will gradually re- treat. It is succeeding. In a re- cent editorial, The New York Times justified the Russians' not paying UN dues on the grounds that the Commies didn't favor the UN peace-keep- ing efforts. * Recently on TV, when Mc- George Bundy showed Profes- sor Hans Morgenthau how many times he was wrong about Viet Nam, the pontifical pro- fessor accused Bundy of being "too well prepared." Is the pro- fessor just ignorant when he says China never attacked any- body, or does he know perfectly well what he's doing, and for whom? * A happy sign on the campus: some collegians who believe in America and its principles are beginning to stand up to the Socialists and Communists and knock them down with the truth. * The liberals are lamenting the lot of the auto worker again. Not his salary; they think it's fair. Not his benefits, which they find more than average. Nor his hours, which they con- sider okay for now. But his "abominable" working condi- tions.,.Jreral liberal programs have WHWmpered that'the auto worker has insufficient time to leave the assembly line to go to the toilet. The truth is these same workers receive from 3 to 6 hours (depending on the job) a week for toilet purposes alone. * What's the biggest problem in Russia today? UNEMPLOY- MENT. Idealists please take note. * Martin Luther King warned the Government to -talk with the Viet Cong "OR ELSE." Many peace moves have been made, by our President, Prime Minister Wilson, U Thant, and others. But the Viet Cong and the Chinese have turned a deaf ear to them. What does King mean by "OR ELSE"? Can the answer be found in his early training? * Ever noticed how a leader in one field is often asked his opinion in others where he's completely unqualified? And, people listen. Einstein was one of the great thinkers of all time, but a child in politics. Frank Sinatra and his "rat pack" had their day,' until bur martyred President sent them packing. Professors who have sharp eyes in the laboratory often are as blind as bats in the political arena. But their opinions on Viet Nam are carefully report- ed. "Leaders" stick to your last. * Making promises is the politician's game." Making him keep them is the people's duty. Therefore, anybody who isn't satisfied with his representa- tives in Washington knows who to blame.

B. WILLIAMS, City Auditor and Clerk. Our Growing ^ Forest by Carl F. Muller Bay, Gulf Farm Forester December, January and Febru- ary are the preferred months for planting pine seedlings in this area, but now is the time to pre- pare the land that you wish to plant this winter. The site or soil preparation should be finished at least two months before the seed- lings are planted. You might ask, "Why is it so nec- essary to prepare my land before planting?" Well, the number one reason is to allow the young pine trees to obtain sufficient moisture to grow. Oak and grass roots are concentrated in the upper twelve inches of soil. After a summer shower, these roots will quickly take up the moisture that the young pine seedlings need so bad- ly to survive. Shading is another reason for site preparation. Although some shade is beneficial to the young seedling; it soon becomes very un- desirable after the seedling has become established. The pine seed- ling like every other plant, requires light to carry out the process of photosynthesis or the making of plant food from water and miner- als. When a pine tree is shaded, it has a tendency to curve away from the shade into the sunlight. This crook will greatly decrease the value of the tree when it be- comes merchantable. Researches at Chipola Experi- mental Forest have found that sur- vival of Slash Pine in deep sandy soil like this we have here in Bay and Gulf counties can be increas- ed 70% by complete site prepara- tion with a double chop. After three years, the seedlings planted in the prepared areas averaged two to three times the height of those planted in the unprepared areas. I We must remember that differ- ent amounts and types of site pre- paration are needed on different sites. For example, in an area heav- ily grown up in scrub oak and grass, you would need a complete site preparation using heavy equip- ment. But in another area with very little underbrush, a good hot prescribe burn in the summer months may be sufficient. In the past few years, many new machines have been invented to prepare land for planting. In the sandy areas here in Bay and Gulf counties, the Double Row Chopper has proven to be the best by far. This machine consists of two steel drums about 5 feet in diameter liri re^ 0 SPEED CRUISER Top quality construction and smart styling with chrome-plated fenders and rims, two-tone saddle, sturdy cantilever frame, Bendix brake and kick- stand.

Carey, District Snager of the Panama City Social Surity Office, said today. A claim for these benefits should be filed now. The parent or person exercising parental responsibility for such a student should file the claim, Carey added. Benefits can be paid for all months beginning January 1965 if the student was in school then. If the student expects to return to school, this fall, benefits will be paid for the summer months also. Children under the age of 19 who are drawing Social Security bene- fits are not affected in any way by this change, Carey stated. How- 'ever, notice will be given to the parent of.' such, a child that the benefits may be continued after age 18 if the child is still in school. !This notice will generally be sent to the parent about three months before the child attains the age of 18. Almost any school will meet the requirements for paying benefits to ia student up to age 22, Carey con- 'cluded. While there will no doubt be a few exceptions to this, if your .:child could otherwise qualify and is attending any kind of school you should file a claim for these bene- fits. Action should be taken on this matter now. 'The Social Security office for this area is located at 1135 Har- rison Ave., Panama City, telephone 763-5331). Average Florida Income Now Stands At $2,250 The average per capital income of all Florida residents stood at $2,250 last year compared with the national average of $2,566 and the southeastern states' average of $1,917, the Florida State Chamber of Commerce reported in its Week- ly Business Review. "Each of these figures represent- ed a gain over 1963: Florida's was 4 per cent, the U. S. average was 5 per cent and the southeastern states moved up 6 per cent. "Per capital income figures are gauges of the level of an area's economy. In calculating them, to- tal personal income is divided by resident population. In Florida last year, personal income totaled $12,- 841,000,000 and resident population stood at 5,705,000 at mid-point of the year. "Florida's total income grew faster than the nation's and faster than the southeast's but with the state's population also growing faster, the gain in per capital in- come was a mathematical casualty. "Florida's population has been growing older and younger. That is, there is an increasing propor- tion of young and of old persons in the state's population at the ex- pense of the wage-earning age group. "For several years Florida has ranked ninth in population among the 50 states and tenth in total personal income. An improvement in the state's rank in per capital income came last year with a rank- ing in 28th position, up from 31st in 1963!"

Vets Getting Social Security Payments Should Take Notice St. Petersburg-Melvin T. Dixon of the Florida Department of Vet- erans Affairs, warned veterans and widows today that a lump sum pay- ment representing the retroactive NOTICE Notice is hereby given that the City Commission of Port St. Joe sitting as The Board of Adjustment according to the provisions of the City Zoning Ordinance, will hold a Public Hearing at the City Hall, Port St. Joe, at 8:00 o'clock P.M., Tuesday, September 7, 1965, to de- termine whether the City will au- thorize a variance from the terms of Ordinance No. 5, being the Zon- ing Ordinance of the City for Mrs. Marion McCall, Lot 20, Block 84, of Port St. Joe, relating to the re- quirements of side line restric- tions. J. B. WILLIAMS It City Auditor and Clerk benefits to January 1, 1965 will be received by Social Security recipi- ents during the month of Septem- ber 1965. Those receiving VA pen- sion and parents receiving depend- ents indemnity compensation bene- fits where entitlement thereto may be affected because of the retroac- tive benefits and the increased monthly benefits, should immedi- ately notify the Veterans Adminis- tration in order to prevent a Vet- erans Administration overpayment. Dixon further stated that any veteran receiving VA pension and Social Security should sharpen their pencils to determine their to- tal income from all sources, in- cluding the seven percent Social Security increase for the year of 1965 to determine whether their income will be in excess of the in- come bracket, and if so, to immedi- ately notify the VA. For further information on this, they should see their local Veteran County Service Officer, or write him at P. O. Box 1437, St. Petersburg. We're Overfed By Russell Kay While half of the world is on !the brink of starvation, America is so over fed that about 80 million are classified by, the medical pro- fession as obese, or in the language of the street, just plain fat. That is why you can't look at your newspapers and magazines or listen to your radio or television without being warden to do some- thing about your weight. You are urged to invest in re- laxicizers, jiggle chairs, rowing machines, bikes and countless other gadgets designed to remove these unsightly and unhealthy bulges. THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. Profits from the sale of so-called weight reducing items has become so great that everybody is getting into the act. Diet foods an drinks flood the market. A half dozen diet drinks and colas are awaiting you at every market while your druggist has a shelf full of appetite-depressant pills ,supplements and extracts, all guaranteed to take off weight or your money back. Book stores and counter displays are loaded with books, pamphlets and other literature ,available at a price that will tell you exactly how to keep yourself sleek and trim. No matter what food or drink you may prefer you can find a diet that recommends them at the same time guaranteeing the results de- sired. Some say eat all you want, anything you want and our supple- ment will so reduce your appetite and desire for food that you will lose weight in spite of yourself. Even preachers are cashing in on the craze. A book was published recently by Lippincott entitled, "Pray Your Weight Away," by Rev. ,Charlie W. Shedd. In a touching confession, Reverend Shedd states, "Three years and 100 pounds ago, I dropped to my knees and prayed, 'Dear God, I've done everything, been on banana diets, taken pills.'" He admonishes us to "Ask God to, show us why we eat too much, to ask God to attend each bite. Ask God to help you like exercise." The pitiful part of the whole pic- ture is the fact that there really isn't much anybody can do about over weight. Medical magazines re- port countless studies that tend to indicate there is no sure cure for obesity. At the present time mose knowl- elgeable physicians regard obesity as an incurable disease. Most fat people are fat because .they are heriditarily fat. Their fatness was fated by their genes. - SDr. Albert J. Stunkard, chairman of the department of psychiatry at 'the University of Pennsylvania, has analyzed the most. rigidly controll- ed weight reduction-studies con- ducted in the' United States be- tween 1931 and 1959. His report in the "Archives of Internal Medi- cine" published by the American Medical Association states, "Re- sults of treatment for obesity are remarkably similar and remark- abily similar and remarkably poor." Reports of other findings by reput- able physicians confirm this. It seems you can take it off, but it vill come right back.- So why not forget it and ,enjoy it? Letters Mr. Wesley Ramsey, Editor The Star Newspaper Port St. Joe, Florida- Dear Wesley: .... . The ground breaking ceremonies set for this week mark another milestone in the progress of the St. Joseph Peninsular State Park. I know that you and most of the St. Joe citizens are as pleased as I at this sign of progress. Senator Tapper is to be com- mended for his efforts in offering a fitting tribute to our Governor and to Congressman Bob Sikes, without their cooperation and as- sistance this park would never have been a reality. Needless to say, their cooperation is a must in future plans for expansion. I am concerned that in recent weeks, I notice in all the publicity that the one individual who gave of himself most freely has not re- ceived public recognition. This man had the foresight and imagin- ation to envision the advantages of this park to Northwest Florida. This man made many trips to Tal- lahassee, he spent endless hours in speeches to civic groups, he initiat- ed and supervised the tremendous letter writing campaign. Without his tireless efforts the park would still be, doubtless, a good item of futile conversation at civic im- provement meetings. I feel that we should all give JESSE STONE a big pat on the back and a thank you for a job well done. I trust you will print this in your next issue of The Star. Very truly yours, BOB SIDWELL. We like it at home. .9 II, GOOD prYEAR Discount Specials Overstocks! We've got to move 'em out! Buy Now! EASY TERMS NO MONEY DOWN FREE MOUNTING -- BUY NOW, PAY LATER!

Editorial - DR KING LOOKS ABROAD Perhaps Dr. Martin Luther King figures he can't do any worse than our present operators in the field of international peacemaking. At any rate, he proposes now to lend his tal- ents to the problem of stopping hostilities in Viet Nam. A worthy ambition-but there is a law that requires private citizens to leave international relations to the Govern- ment. Unless Dr. King is appointed to the State Department -and we are not prepared to say this will not happen--he should leave affairs in Viet Nam to those who already have enough complications in trying to straighten out the South- east Asia mess. Of course, Dr. King isn't likely to be stopped by any puny law. His philosophy is clear enough; he feels a citizen need not abide by laws if he is moved by some kind of higher call. And the Federal Government seems to agree-at least where Dr. King and his friends are concerned. In this connection, we can hardly blame the civil rights leader for wanting to leave the field he has plowed so thor- oughly and move on to a perhaps more glamorous role in world affairs. The harvest of the civil rights movement is not entirely attractive these days. In Los Angeles, for example, where 6,000 Negroes have staged bloody riots in the last two nights. In Chicago, where 300 rock-throwers defied the law in another racial demon- stration. In Americus and Bogalusa and-other Southern areas where both races have taken the law into their own hands. And of course, at Berkeley, Calif., where so-called pace demonstrators feel conscience-bound to stop troop trains. All these people-any many more-have taken heart from Dr. King's demonstrations that laws need not be obeyed by a private citizen unless he fully agrees with them. No doubt rioting and killing go beyond what Dr. King had in mind.when he pursued his "bloodless revolution." But if he is going to be honored for his part as high priest in the crusade for civil rights, he must also accept his share of the responsibility for the lawlessness and terror that now ride over the land. However, we would not wish to discourage Dr. King in any way from establishing peace in Viet Nam. The world will watch with interest to see what effect the sit-in, the lie- down and the nonviolent demonstrations will have on those eminent civil rights sympathizers, the Viet Cong.---Tulsa Daily World. Etaoin Shrdlu By WESLEY R. RAMSEY . Well, we took that flying, riding vacation like we threatened to do last week. In five days we traveled over 2,100 miles, saw a lot of kin folks, ate a lot of their good vittles and visited with some friends. It's hot in Oklahoma and Arkansas. It was 100 degrees in the shade of a big oak tree, on the side of a large lake, iat 6:30 in the af- ternoon Saturday evening. And the humidity was 17%! The rains couldn't hardly stand for us to be away. They fol- lowed us Thursday morning until we outran them at the other side of Pensacola and came to meet us on the way back all the way to Lucedale, Mississippi. But nary a drop in the in-between. And, just a parting word, any time you get to kicking about- the condition of the roads of Florida, just go out of the state and you will learn to appreciate our good roads. They are pretty bad elsewhere. We even traveled over some interstate highways that were rough. Even though it was a fast and furious trip, it was enjoyable to get away for a few days. But, you can bet that we will not go on such a jaunt again for a while.

The timber to be sold is approx- imately Two Hurifred (200) Un- its, but the Board of County Com- missioners does not warrant as to any exact amounts. Bids should be submitted on a per unit basis. A part of said timber has been sawed, and the remainder of said timber will be pushed to the ground by the County.

Core, Clerk, Wewa- hitchka, Florida. Dated this 10th day of July, A. D. 1965. BOARD of COUNTY COMMISSION GULF COUNTY, FLORIDA /s/ JAMES G. McDANIEL, Chmn. ATTEST: 2t-8-12 /s/ GEORGE Y. CORE, Clerk merce Building at 10 a. m. At 2:30 p. m. this afternoon, I will meet with Holmes and Wash- ington Connty leaders to discuss developmental planning for both. The meeting will be held at the Chipley Armory and will be open to all interested persons. Dog Fly Program Appears Certain Approval of my Dog Fly Control program for Northwest Florida's Gulf Coast now appears certain. The project for spraying dog fly breeding areas has now cleared all obstacles and is ready for the sig- nature of Sargent Shriver, director of the Office of Economic Oppor- tutnity. It will provide $50,000 for spraying by boat during the re- mainder of the current season. Admittedly, it is late to obtain maximum benefit, but it will pro- vide a start. A follow-on program on a much larger scale will be pro- posed for next year. The dog fly has long been one of the principal nuisances to tourists in late sum- mer, and most beach operators feel that the Gulf Coast tourist season can be extended well into October if the dog fly can be eliminated. Eglin Tornado-Damaged Buildings to Be Replaced My committee on Military Con- struction has given approval for construction of three facilities at Eglin which were destroyed by a tornado early this year. The items are: an automotive maintenance ship at $191,000; an automotive maintenance administration build- ing at $34,000; and a refueling ve- hicle shop at $129,000. The three items total $354,000 and the fund- ing will be accomplished by a re- programming action. Construction will be immediate. Existing facili- ties were destroyed or badly dam- aged by a tornado early in 1965. I don't know how you start a tornado but we sure got rid of some poor old buildings. Viet Nam Medal to Be Issued A new Viet Nam medal for all armed forces members who serve in Viet Nam has been approved by the Department of Defense. A bill introduced by me some time ago would have required that such a medal be issued. The present ac- tion, however, was accomplished through Presidential order instead of following legislative procedure. The important thing is to give rec- ognition to those who are risking their lives in that far away part of the world. Military Pay Raise A, meaningful pay raise for mili- tary personnel now seems assured. The Senate has passed a bill in line with the House recommendations for a 10.7% increase. The action of Congress in passing the bill provid- ing salary increases for military personnel at a level twice that rec- ommended by the Administration reflects growing Congressional con- cern over the problems of retain- ing well-trained personnel in the military service. Certainly, pay al- lowances commensurate with that received by civilian counterparts is a good starting place for the con- tinuous battle to maintain high lev- els of trained and efficient men in the Armed Forces. Your Congressman was one of the sponsors of the House-passed pay raise bill.
