Work On Canals
Two resolutions were passed by
the City Commission at their meet-

Commissioner Bob Fox moved
.that the Board adopt resolutions
asking for improvements to the
.Gulf County Canal and requesting
work continue on the Cross-Florida

According to the Chinese, this is the "year of the horse".
-Thought you might like that little bit of information.

And speaking, of horses, Julian Bond is still trying to get his
seat in the Georgia Legislature, even though he cannot truthfully
take the oath of allegiance that goes with being seated to all public
offices. Mr. Bond, and everyone else, should, remember that when
one seeks a public office, he must think of all the people, and not
just his pet ideologies. And most of all, he must support his state
and his country. Bond has said that he prefers not to.
We salute the Georgia Legislature for insisting that its mem-
bers be loyal tb the United States and to the State of Georgia.
And lest they be accused of racism, the Georgia Legislature
seated seven other Negroes to its body without a murmur of dis-
sent.

We invite you to read an interesting "letter to the editor" from
Apalachicola's principal Collins printed on page two of this issue.
Collin's letter is in answer to The Star's utterings last week regard-
ing the apparent lack .of agreement between Port St. Joe and Apa-
lachicola high schools failure to reach an agreement on playing
'football next year.
We appreciate Mr. Collin's answer and hope that our wonderings
of last week and Mr. Collin's defense of their position this week
may somehow elicit enough public sentiment that the two athletic
departments may somehow come to a meeting of the minds and our
'-gridiron rivalry be continued next year and for years afterward.
This was our purpose.

A new year is beginning for the Chamber of Commerce and
b probably one of the most important years in Port St. Joe's short his-
-tory.
Not only is it a time for growth, but it is a year for protecting
S-hat we 'have. And such protection can be greatly enhanced by
such an organization as the-Chamber of Commerce.
Port St. Joe faces having its water cut off or better still
its water ways.
The Panama City Herald Tuesday evening carried a story which
stated that the Panama City Chamber of Commerce is promoting a
project to construct a canal from East Bay to the Apalachicola
River near Wewahitchka.
This would not only hurt Port St. Joe, but it would hurt Gulf
County.
At present Port St. Joe is the nearest ocean port to the Three
Rivers navigation waterway being rapidly completed to Atlanta,
Georgia. The story in Tuesday's paper states that construction of
4he proposed canal would make these North Georgia ports 100 miles
closer-to an ocean port.
-' Whether this is true or not we will not argue. But we privately
believe-that this will not be so. At present Port St. Joe is in a posi-
tion to benefit greatly by construction of the waterway. Let us be
-on our toes, and support every organization that can effectively
fight this attempt to undermine our position.
We might point out that part of the dollars you spend in Pan-
ama City goes to support the Chamber of Commerce there which is
advocating shutting us off )from a lucrative waterfront business in
the future. .

Piggly Wiggly Is

Burglarized Again
For the second time in three
months, the Port St. Joe Piggly
Wiggly Super Market was entered
by would-be safe crackers last Fri-
,day night.
Entry was made through an ex-
haust fan opening at the rear of
the store and the safe removed
from the store by the back door.
The safe normally sits in the front
window of the super market.
And for the second time in -three
months, this same safe has- with-
stood the attempts of burglars to
get it open. The safe was left in
the parking area to the rear of the
market by the burglars. Apparently
they were scared away.
Maurice Hillbold, owner of the
Piggly Wiggly had just completed
repairs to the safe after its last
bout with safe crackers.
The break-in is being investigat-,
ed by the Gulf County Sheriff'is De-
partment and the Port St. Joe Po-
lice Department

Unusual and ateres

Useof"L1eietfettor

The Port St. Joe Kiwanis Club
was treated to an unusual program
Tuesday, when Joe Townsend of
the Florida Sheriff's Bureau demon-
strated a polygraph, better known
as a lie detector.
Townsend said that there were
four polygraphs operated by the
Sheriff's Bureau in the State of
Florida and that he serves ten
counties of 'Northwest Florida,
Townsend offered praise for Gulf
County Sheriff Wayne White. He
said that White had the best record
with his department of any inves-
tigator in the 10-county area he
serves. He said that in only one in-
stance when he has been called
upon to conduct a polygroph test
in the county did White have the
wrong man up for the test.
In giving the lie detector tests
the human elements of blood pres-
sures, breathing and skin reaction
are used in determining if a sus--
pect is telling th etruth or not. In
every case a suspect must agree to
a plygraph test before it can be
given. The suspect is presented
with every question that he will be

Too Late To Classify
I. By Russell Kay individual ear.
When cartoonists and fiction The first vacuum tube (computer
writers dreamed up the two-day ra- ever built weighed miae than 30
dio wrist watch they probably did tons. It was bulky, vastly expensive,
not realize how soon science would overheated monster and it required
catch up with their rampant imag- 30 by 50 feet of floor space. Trans-


nation and go it one better.
When Dick Tracy began using
his wrist watch radio, electronic
gadgets were being operated with
the old-fashioned vacuum tube.
Then came the transistor which
*enabled engineers to reduce the
size of electronic equipment at the
*same time improving their oper-
ation.
/Transistors need far less power
than tubes .and they do not break
or wear out and "an-be permanent-
ly mounted in a circuit without the
need of tube type sockets. Theorei-
ically, a transistor, given reason-
ably good treatment will perform
perfectly forever.
Printed circuits made the next
contribution to the miniaturization
by eliminating most of the wiring
between components. In place of
wires ,small pathways of conduct-
Sing material are printed directly
on a thin board of nonconducting
material. The transistors and other
components are then mounted on
these boards, their connections sol-
dered to conducting pathways.
In the January issue of the Read-
er's Digest, Charles Leedham tells,
of the newest 'marvel inf electron-
ics, the "Chip." He points out that
we are entering the age of micro-
electronics, where the "Chip" per-
mits the development, of not only
the radio wrist watch but hearing
aids so tiny that they can be fitted
in the ear canal, moulded to the


istors advanced the development of
computers tremendously but now
the "Chip" promises to reduce their
size even more and At the same
time increase their efficiency.
Engineers are working on the
development of computers that will
out perform the best known mach-
ines today yet will be so small they
can be used on a desk taking up
no more space than a typewriter or
adding machine.
'Through the use of the "Chip''
communications engineers see a
'future where pocket sized radio
telephones will become common-
place ,each unit being capable of
being dialed. directly' from every
other unit with the signals trans-
mitted through a relay station to
satellites like Early Bird:
It may also be possible to set
every radio telephone communi-
cator so as to allaw calls only from
certain numbers and to shut off all
other calls, unless a caller equip-
ped with a special code. dials a
level of urgency high enough to
override the receiver's shut off.
Already in existence is a circuit
that will take over once you have
dialed a .number -and, received a
busy signal. It will continue to
call that number until it answers
and then ring your phone.
Microelectronics will unalterably
change our lives and the lives of
our children as tiny and tinier
"Chips" take over to perform un-
believable miracles.


County Tax Assessors Must Boost Their

'Property Valuation to Ful Market Value


Fort Lauderdale State Comp-
troller Fred O. Dickinson states
there has been no modification of
his. notice to county tax assessars
to boost property valuations to full
market value this year.
:Dickinson said that the reaffirm-
ation of September, 1965, directive
to the assessors was being made
"because of the obvious misinter-
pretation of questions and answers
at a press conference in Ocala last
week."
i Dickinson said, too, that in addi-
tion to the importance of the full
cash value order of the courts, "uni-
formity of assessments throughout
the state; to guarantee that some
-counties are not carrying the tax
load which should be shared by
other counties, is equally import-
ant."
Commenting on the "practical
problem" involved ,with 67 assess-
ors faced with the court order to
have wholesale reassessment, and
noting that there are but.-several
professional appraisal firms in the
state to do the work, Dickinson
said "we still are urging assessors
to move as fast as they can.
"In addition to the memorandum
I sent to the asessors, I followed
that with a letter to each assessor.
Also, I outlined by .views to the
assessors association and subse-
quently repeated them to the exec-
,utive committee of the association.
As recently as today I moved into
the Osceola County's assessment
problems to offer help from this
office on revaluation.
AW "I currently am touring the state
making on-the-scene reviews with
assessors of their progress in as-
sessment and offering the help of
this office to hasten completion of
assessment work.
"In September, I mailed my offi-
cial views as Comptroller of Flor-
ida to the assessors ,telling them


that I expected ,them to adjust
property values in their, county to
the proper level of assessment.
"I reminded, them that the de-
cision .to make these changes was
not mine, but was ordered 'by the
courts of our state.
"The courts have spoken and the
law is clear and explicit that prop-
erty must be assessed as market
value. It was .my intention then,
and is my intention now, that the
law is upheld. I can do no less.
"Former Comptroller Ray Green
previously notified the asessors in
August of 1965 that he expected
compliance with the court's direc-
tive in the preparation of the 1966
roll. My positiori has been to reaf-
firm Mr. Green's policy.
"The point I was trying to make
to newsmen at the Ocala press con-
ference was that the court set no
specific deadline in ordering the
revaluation work, and that it would
have been impractical at the time
for the court to fix a specific date
for other counties when it was deal-
ing with a specific case in one
county.
"My position remains unchanged,
though. I continue to expect the
reassessments to be made this
year."

Jim Cooper Speaks

To Lions Club
The Port St. Joe Lions Club held
its weekly meeting at the St. Joe
Motel. Our guest speaker was Mr.
Jim Cooper representing the Mer-
chants Committee of the Chamber
of Commerce.
Mr. Cooper explained some of
the activities of the committee,
these activities include furnishing
for the customer a larger and bet-
ter variety of merchandise at a
price equal to or better than that
in larger cities surrounding Port
St. Joe. The Merchants 'Committee
is built up of several sub-commit-
tees such as sales Promotions, fi-
nance ,public affairs, labor rela-
tions, industrial relations and a
welcoming committee to visit and
welcome newcomers to Port St. Joe.
Mr. Cooper said the merchants are
setting up a personnel training
school to allow the sales personnel
to give the customer quicker and
better service 'when shopping in
our Port St. Joe stores, Through
the many efforts of these commit-
tees the merchants hope tb give
the customer the same quality and
quantity of merchandise and at the
same price as is offered in larger
cities.

Shortage of School Space Is Common

Problem All Over Gulf County It Seems


Port St. Joe isn't the only city
in the county that is suffering from
lack of proper school space in
which to carry on the many activ-
ities that modern curriculums de-
mand.
While Port St. Joe's shortages
of apace have been brought pain-
fully to our attention recently, the
space shortage in Wewahitchka is
just as evident, with less than de-
sirable efforts to correct these de-
'ficiencies being made.
Pictured here. on this page are


three temporary school c 1ass
rooms. Their appearance hearkens
back the old days of the one room
school with one teacher for every
grade that attended.
Pictured are the buildings being
used for home economics classes,
the guidance counselor building
and the classroom being used for
the exceptional child classroom.
All of the buildings are near the
Wewahitchka High School campus
and are being rented by the Gulf
County School Board.


This small building is used by the Guidance Counselor for We-
wahitchka High School as her office.


Two-Spotted Spider Mite Is Most

Common Nemesis of 'Rose Grdwers
Homestead-One of the more se- mine any changes in the major and


rious problems connected with rose
production is control of the two-
spotted spider mite.
Because of the large number of
rose varieties grown, problems
with plant damage reduce the num-
ber of compounds suitable for use.
Many of the materials now avail-
able have been used on a five-day
schedule but with only fair tO poor
results.
"If an effective systemic miti-
cide was found that could be ap-
plied to the soil, fewer applications
would be needed and much of the
ineffectiveness resulting from im-
proper- spraying and theramount
of unsightly residue on the foliage
would be reduced," said Dr. R. M.
Baranowski, associate entomologist
at the Sub-Tropical Experiment
Station here.
A systemic insecticide is one ab-
sorbed by a plant and killing suck-
ing insects feeding on the plant's
juices.
It was found after a number of
tests that a systemic compound
known as UC 21149 provides excel-
lent mite control on field and hy-
droponically-grown roses.
i Dr. Baranowski says control on
the field-grown roses was obtained
for periods up to seven weeks with
only a single application.
Tests now underway at the Sub-
Tropical' Station suggest that "re-
infestations" from untreated plants
can develop in seven to eight
weeks.
The UF scientist said results also
indicate that reducing the amount
of the toxicant and adding it to
the nutrient solution more often
will provide continued control with
considerably less material.
However, control isn't the only

plants also show increased growth
causing new breaks near the base

Stems are stouter and longer.
There are more petals per flower
and more flowers per plant.
Studies are now continuing to
obtain more information on mites
and nematode control as well as
chemical investigations to deter-


micro-elements of the soil result-
ing from applications of UC 21149.
The new compound is presently
known only by its code number
UC 21149 and is not available on
the market.

even though its full range of effec-
tiveness won't be known for sev,

STUDENTS MAY HAVE REFUND
DUE ON INCOME TAX RETURNS
Jacksonville- Florida students
who work part-time or summers
may have a refund due on their
1965 Federal income tax returns.
District Director of Internal
Recenue Schmidt explains that un-
married students who earn less
than $900 will not owe any Federal
income tax. They are entitled to
claim the usual $600 personal ex-
emption, plus a $300 minimum
standard deductions
SStudents are subject to the same
Federal tax obligations as other


tion is now on hand to indicate taxpayers, and have no special ex-


that this compound will be a valu- emption. They are required to file
able bne for the ornamental indus- a tax return if their earnings are
try. $600 or more. They should file a


return in order to obtain a refund
when earnings are less than $600
and taxes were withheld from
wages by their employers.
Students must claim their own
personal exemption when filing a
tax return, Mr. Schmidt said. How-
ever, parents who furnish more
than one-half the cost of support
for their child who is a full-time
student may also claim a depend-
ency exemption for the child on
their tax return, unless the child
is married and is filing a joint re-
turn with his (or her) spouse.

GULF COAST JC TO PRESENT
ROMEOO AND JULIET" FEB. 4
Shakespeare's immortal love
story, "Romeo and Juliet," will be
presented in Panama City's Mu-
nicipal Auditorium at 8 p. m., Fri-
day, February 4, it was announced
this week.
The tragic story of two young i
lovers will be presented by the Na-
tional Players of Washington, D. C.,
and will be sponsored by the Ly-
ceum Commission of the Gulf
Coast Junior College Student Gov-
ernment Association.
National Players is the longest-
running national classical repertory
Company in America. It is cur-
cently in its 17th consecutive sea-
son, and has brought quality drama
to Panama City the past five years.
Among the Shakespearian dramas
brought to Panama City by the
theatrical group in past years were
"Macbeth," "The Merchant of Ven-
ice," and "Richard III."
This year's selection, "Romeo
and Juliet," is the world's classic
love story and tells the story of
two young lovers who join each
other in death rather than submit
to separation because of feuding
families.
Chris Saranden, Jr., of Beckley,
West Virginia, a newcomer to the
National Players, plays the role of

Everyone knows this means there's very little choice, if any, between
two things. This 'could be true in many cases but not in financial in-'
stitutions. When it comes to banking there's all the difference in the
world. Don't take our word, just open a checking account at one desk
'then move to another to finance a refrigerator. It can only be done at
a BANK. Yes, checking accounts, savings accounts with guaranteed
interest, and all types of loans .... at your BANK. Six of one, half a
dozen of another? Not when it comes to banking!



"Over 400 banks in Florida behind you and your community"

"National political repercussions
would be another potential side ef-
fect of this measure.
"With or without the approval of
the Florida Legislature or the vot-
ers, adoption of the federal model
law would eliminate all existing
exemptions of the Florida sales tax
law except for those on groceries
and medicine.
"The exemption removal would
mean more tax on gasoline and
other fuel oil, a sales tax on school
books and school lunches, sales tax
on religious ,charitable and educa-
tional items, a new tax on hospital
meals and rooms.
"More sales tax would be added
to car sales, and political subdivis-
ions would have to start paying
sales tax on the millions of dollars
of merchandise they purchase.
"J. Ed Straughn; director of the
State Revenue Commission, reports
to me that studies in his office con-
firm the serious, adverse effect
such a proposal would have on the
existing sales tax philosophy of
Florida.
"The Revenue Commission esti-
mates that immediately, Floridians
would have to pay an additional
$72 million in sales and use taxes,
with the federal government cor-
nering an undetermined amount of
this total."
Comptroller Dickinson urged in-
terested citizens to contact their
Congressmen and the U. S. Sen-
ators to express opposition to the
bill. "
Dickinson has invited Straughn
to accompany him to Washington
for the hearing, but he is not ex-
pected to testify.
