Camera Saves Life of Local Boy


Eastman Kodak ,Company receiv-
ed a letter and package from Ma-
rine Corporal Michael T. White,
stationed in Vietnam, recently.
White is the son of Mr. and Mrs.
John White of this city.
In the package was an Instama-
tic 104 camera. White wondered if
it could be' .repaired. It featured
a large, jagged hole. He sent along
the bullet that made the hole, too.
"I am a crew chief on one of our
helicopters operating out of Mar-
ble Mt.," he wrote. "On our way
back from a courier run to Chu
Lai, we had to fly at an altitude of
700 feet because of an overcast.


At one point we were fired upon
from the ground. We weren't
aware of this at the time, and con-
tinued on our way.
"So we got back ,and my first
mechanic and I secured the chop-
per for the night. When I went to
work this morning, I preflighted
my bird and signed it off as ready
for flight. I went to the PX and
bought a couple of rolls of film
for my camera, which I had left
in the chopper.
"Well, when I reached into the
radio compartment to get my cam-
era, I found this mess I'm sending
to you.
"This camera saved three valu-


able radios, and possibly saved
four persons from a fiery death.
"Had we lost our UHF, TACAN,
or FM radios, which the bullet
would have hit had it not been for
the camera, we could very easily
have collided with'another aircraft
in the dense overcast. So thanks to
my camera, I'm still alive today,
along with my pilot, co-pilot and
gunner.
"I'm sending the camera, along
with the shrapnel and the bullet,
just as I found it, in hopes it can
be repaired."
It can't. As White said, it's "a
mess". But Kodak is sending him
a new-Instamatic., -


The City Commission last Tues-
cay night voted to award a con-
tract.to Metcalf and Shiver of Do-
tian, Alabania for a 50 ton chiller
Abr the Municipal Hospital. The
chiller will replace a ,.machine
which has gone bad at the Hospi-
tal.
The bid price was $7,490.00 in-
stalled.
The Dothan firm was one of six
firms bidding on the chiller.
S. Petty to Retire
Commisisoner Bob Holland an-
nounced that Superintendent of
Streets, P. W. Petty wishes to re-
tire after the first of the year.
'Holland recommended to the
Board that Petty be retained on a
part time basis as an inspector for
the City's zoning and building code.
HE pointed out that the code is vir-
tqally useless without proper in-
spection and that the work load
is not great enough to employ a
full time inspector.

Notice on Water Bills
Mayor Frank Pate recommended
to the Board last Tuesday that the
city print a reminder on the' bot-
tom of city water bills to -check
driver's licenses for expiration.
Florida driver licenses expire 'in
the holder's birth month every two
years., The plan has resulted in
several people allowing the expira-
tion date to slip by because of
failure to check the validity of the
license in the birth month. The
slogan on the water bills will urge
people born in the billing month
to check their driver's license for
expiration.
Golf Driving Range
City Clerk Charles Brock re-
quested the City Commission to
provide a golf driving range in
Forrest Park between 16th to 10th


At the Tuesday, December 13
meeting of the Gulf County
Board of' Commissioners' meet-
ing, Architect Paul Donofro, de-
signer of the new Gulf County
.Courtho.use,.now under construc-
tion, 'promised the Board a let-
ter explaining that work on pil-
ing placement for the new court-
house will- meet the needs.
Donotro's statement and pro-
mise came as the result of' a
question as to whether place-
ment of piling was proper by
Commissioners Leo Kennedy and
Walter Graham. Their question
came as the result of a claim to
them by a discharged employee
that the piling had not been pla-
ced properly.
To clarify the situation, ac-
cording to the-Architect and his
-Engineering firm, The Star re-
prints the following letter to the
Board outlining the situation.

James McDaniel, Chairman
Board of County Commissioners
Gulf County Courthouse
Wewahitchka, Florida
Dear Commissioner:
After meeting with your board
last Tuesday, December 13, 1966.
I made a trip to the site of the new
Courthouse and once again inves-
tigated the pile cluster that was
in question by Mr. Kennedy and
Mr. Graham.
This was one of the clusters that
was investigated previously and it
was this cluster that our engineer
had also previously analyzed the
loading condition with the piles
being off center.
However, this time. I had- the
.Contractor dig, completely around
and under the .cap to a depth of
three feet and I measured the cir-
cumference of each pile and its
location in relation to the cap.
From this I made' a drawing (see
enclosure) and on the basis of this
drawing our engineer again ana-
lyzed the group and felt that it
was adequate (see letter enclosed).
I would like to bring to your
and the boards attention that the
mock up layout that was presented
at your last weeks meeting was
not a true representation of the
cluster. The constant reference to
the piles as being as much as 16
inches off center was also a mis-
representation as you can see by
the enclosed drawings. The most
any pile is off center is six inches.
I would like to recommend to
you and the board, that in the fu-
ture if there are any items you
may feel either warrants investiga-
tion or that something is being
done incorrectly, to please contact
either myself or the Contractor
rather than the news media. I do
not believe you are utilizing our
service fully unless this procedure
is followed. I feel that the pub-
licity received because of this mat-
ter was unjustified and inaccurate
and to a large, extent could have
been avoided. In my opinion the
only effect this publicity had was
to create in the minds of the citi-
zens of Gulf County that there is


Forehand Listed As
Century Club Member
William Cullen Forehand of 223
Third Street, Highland View, is
listed as a new member of the Cen-
tury Club in the January .issue of
TOGETHER magazine.
He was born on September 26,
1866.
Mr. Forehand still attends wor-
ship services and the senior alult
class at Highland Methodist Church
where he has been a member many
years.
Since it was established 10 years
ago, TOGETHER has saluted al-
most 500 centenarians. Most of
them still are living, among the
most energetic being 104-year-old
Bishop Herbert Welch of, New
York City.
TOGETHER is Methodism's gen-
eral-interest magazine for families
that goes into three-quarters of a
million homes monthly. -


a certain amount of incompetence
on the part of the Architect and
Contractor. This, I do not believe
was your. intentions, however, I
feel this is what resulted. Needless
to say I have done and will con-
tinue to do my utmost in seeing
that the' new facilities are such
that all' of. the people of Gulf
County ,will be pleased.
I feel thus far the Contractor
has given us a good job and expect
he will continue to do so through-
out the remainder of this project.

/Mr. Paul Donofro
Architect, A.I.A.
Marianna, Florida
I have made an analysis of
the pile group layout for col-
umn No. 64 in accordance with
the, enclosed sketch furnished by
your office.
The shifting of this pile group
causes a 6 inch eccentricity of
-loading in one direction which
causes unequal pile loading. For-
tunately however, the pile group
as originally designed had a load


Hospital Praised

For Care Given

To Strangers
Port St. Joe's Municipal Hospi-
tal is doing its bit to spread the
image of Port St. Joe as a friendly
town on the Gulf Coast.
Recently, a tourist from Jack-
sonville was treated in the emer-
gency room at the hospital and
the patient wrote the following
letter expressing his appreciation
for kindnesses shown to him.
*
Administration and Staff,
Port St. Joe Municipal Hospital,
I am writing this letter to try
and express my gratitude for the
care and courtesies extended to
me on Sunday morning, December
4.
It is a heartwarming experience
for a stranger to be received as I
was that morning, especially con-
sidering I looked somewhat rough
and know you must. still be clean-
ing sated out of the hospital.
The Hospital and community of
Port St. Joe can be extremely
proud of the staff in whose care
they have entrusted the hurt and
sick. If all hospitals in our country
are like yours, we can always be
sure of getting the kindest and
best treatment possible.
Thanking you again, I remain
yours truly,
John M. Van Brocklin

of only 30k (15 tons) per pile
which is less than maximum
loading. The eccentricity adds an
additional load of 18k to one pile
giving it a total load of 48k (24
tons). As the ultimate load ca-
pacity is 89k (40 tons) per pile,
this gives,a factor of safety of
80k/48k equalling 1.67 which
is in my opinion, adequate.

EDITORIALS.....


May it be hard "to follow".


LET US RESOLVE

Only three days are left in the old year of 1966.
Not much time to do anything about making 1966
better. But these three days leave ample time for us to
vow to join together .to make the new year a better one
for Gulf county .
'We have? moves going to build new, adequate schools
for the county. We have a new' courthouse under con-
struction.
Such projects as these spell a new era for Gulf County.
It is our opinion in the past year that everyone concern-
ed has done too much bickering and too much "playing
politics" with these two projects. .yours truly included.
It-would seem to us that the proper thing to do dur-
ing the remaining three days of this year would be to de-
termine to .do our best to no, longer hamper in any way
these projects -which will mean so much to our future. We
believe-that it behooves us here and now to forget pet
peeves, personal opinions and desires, and join together
to see the new courthouse completed, harmoniously .
and the new school complex got underway for the better-
ment of the county.
Nq matter which side of the fence you are standing
on concerning these two projects, we are talking to you.
It has disturbed us this year to see Gulf County-nor-
mally reasonably agreeable-slipping into the paths of. tur-
moil and back-biting that has made such sensational head-
lines in other counties of Florida and other states.
We think you will agree that our merchandise to sell
to the world is limited. If we are to grow and be prosper-
ous as well as well educated, we must band together. There
is no room for a tug of war in our small county.
Won't you join with us in making this resolution for
the coming year?



A Need for Fairness,to All Concerned

In the depression years of the thirties, the pendulum
of public and political favor began to swing sharply toward
organized labor. In. the face of concentrations of power
in industry and government, there was need for a balanc-
ing force to uphold the interests of the workingman. Legis-
lation was passed which helped the unions organize and
- gain the economic power to effectively represent their mem-
bers. Since this process first began, there have been sharp
differences of opinion and dire predictions of the conse-
quences that would result when national labor organiza-
tions gained too much power and held a whip hand over the
people, industry and perhaps even the government of the
United States. But, in the United States, such a buildup
of power is not likely. Majority public opinion expressed
In the polling booth still shapes public policy. As long as
that is true, it seems certain that when union power is ac-
tually being used against the public interest that power
will be curtailed. And, therein lies the question. At what
point will this occur, and how far will the pendulum swing
against labor organizations? There are a number of fac-
tors accumulating which indicate the time may be at hand,
and it is to be hoped that the pendulum will not swing too
far.
One of the central things building adverse public sen-

Florida Pulpwood Purchased for Use,


In Georgia Totaled $57,488,000 '65"


About the handiest thing we had going this Christ-
mas was a "Christmas Club". This is the first time we
had ever indulged in this plan and let me tell you it's as
handy as a fur-lined nickel.


ATLANTA-Purchases of pulp-
wood grown in Florida and deliv-
ered to pulp and paper mills in
1965 totaled $57,488,000, according
to a report this week by H. J.
Malsberger, general manager of
the Southern Pulpwood Conserva-
tion Association.
Florida's total for last year was
5 percent greater than the value
recorded for 1964 deliveries, he


use of paper and paperboard pro-
ducts is now at an all-time high
rate of 501 pounds a year. The pop-
ulation also is steadily increasing,
creating an ever-growing demand
for paper from trees, and there are
expanding needs -for land use in
competition with woodlands,
"It is inevitable," Mr. Malsber-
ger declared, "that increasingly
greater acreage will be taken up
by such things as superhighways,


urban expansion, industrial expan- -
sion, reservoirs for water storage
and flood control, and areas for
recreation.
"As a result of all these needs,"
Mr. Malsberger said, "forest de-
velopment and protection must be
continuously intensified in order
that more and better trees may be
grown on all the land we have
available for that purpose, now
and in the future."


timent in regard to organized labor is inflation. The Ad-
ministration has apparently acknowledged that the old 3.2
per cent wage guidepost no longer limits pay raises. In
December, blue collar government employees in the Wash-
ington area received wage increases of 4.4 and 4.5 per
cent. Recent Labor Department figures show that during
the first 9 months of this year, major settlements in pri-
vate industry have run around 4 per cent, excluding
"fringes'", in the first year of the contracts and some in-
creases have gone to 7 per cent or more.
Union leaders are caught in a trap. The process of
inflation; kicked off by unrestrained government spending
and resultant excessive demand for goods and services,
is now being carried forward by rising costs of production
which must be reflected in higher prices. Much of the
cost of production is accounted for by the cost of labor.
Labor leaders seeking higher wage and fringe benefits for
union members, in order to keep up with inflation, only add
fuel to the fire. There is every likelihood that strikes will
.be called in major industries and that the inconvenience
and loss to the general public will be considerable. It is
clearly a time which calls for restraint and statesmanship
on the part of both labor and management if the processes
of collective bargaining are to be preserved.
If such statesmanship is not forthcoming, straws now
in the wind seem to point to a change in labor's political
fortunes. There is much. interest building for new legisla-
tion to deal with serious strikes--some kind of antistrike
law giving the President new and perhaps too much power
in settling labor .disputes. Union leaders have expressed
concern that they will be on the defensive in the new Con-
gress. Some even fear the possibility of compulsory arbi-
tration being imposed in all strike situations. If applied
to all industry, this would amount to wage control and
could set the stage for price control as well.
Many authorities feel that the -National Labor Rela-
tions Board as the primary agency administering our labor
policy has by its decisions contributed to an excessive build-
up of union power. If this is the case, it is reasoned that a
change of policy by the NLRB could work to correct the
situation. Harry L. Browne, for years an attorney for the
NLRB and nationally known specialist in- labor law, com-
ments on present labor strife and the "imbalance" in union
power which in part at least is a causative factor. He ob-
serves that ". .. an area for correction in both the cause
and the cure may well lie in the Board's reversal of a policy
that has upset the balance of power so essential to make
collective bargaining work in the public interest, thereby
giving our labor statutes a chance to work as Congress orig-
inally intended. If equality is restored, free collective bar-
gaining may yet be made to work in the national interest
without federal controls imposed on a free bargaining pro-
cess that all-the public, labor and management, and the
Congress alike-would abjure."

By WESLEY R. RAMSEY '


Christmas has come and gone with all of its good
smells, its happy times, the visiting and the: exchanging of.
gifts the renewing of acquaintances with relatives.
Frenchie and I spent a week end of traveling, since
both my family and her family were. getting together for
the first time in over 10 years .. and probably the last
time for another 10 or so years or possibly the last
time ever.
We traveled to Warner Robins, Ga., Friday to her
parents' home, where sisters from St. Paul, Minnesota
and Dover, Delaware, along with their families had gather-
ed with the Georgia-dwelling clan for 'a giant Christmas
with all the 27 grandchildren. We now have a new defini-
tion for "noise" 27 grandchildren in one room, all talk-
ing at the same time along with seven sets of parents.
We went to Atlanta Saturday for a Christmas Eve
dinner at my brother Bob's home, where the family had
gathered. There were only 17 grandchildren here though
and peace and quiet reigned for a few hours.. relative-
ly speaking.
After a week end like that, it will necessarily have to
be lettuce and water 'on our diet for the next two weeks
to shake off the effects of two full size Christmas dinners.

SChristmas brings its surprises, too.
We have a one-girl fan club up in St. Paul, with one
lovely young lady as its sole member by the name of Bri-
ged Francour, a six-year-old niece. She only knew me by
my picture at the head of this blurb, however, and when
we all gathered in Warner Robins, she sidled up to her
mother and asked, "Which one is Uncle Wesley?"
That picture is only 10 years old have I changed

with SPCA.
Pulpwood was produced in 65. of
Florida's 67 counties. The three
leading counties, and the value of
pulpwood shipped from each, were:
Nassau, $3,701,640; Taylor, $3,-
461,960 and Dixie, $2,281,660.
Florida's share in the 1965 pro-
duction of pulpwood was part of
another all-time high for the
South as a whole. The region's to-
tal for last year was $615,816,000,
a gain of 7 percent over 1964, the
previous high.
Mr. Malsberger stressed that the
South's pulpwood harvest in 1965
accounted for 63 percent of the
nation's total production of raw
material for the pulp and paper
industry. He pointed out also that
the region's renewable forest re-
source and markets are so exten-
sive that pulpwood is being har-
vested in 91 percent of the counties
of the South..
Another favorable part of the
region's woodland picture, he ad-
ded, is that SPCA figures based on
government surveys show that
trees are growing faster than they
are being harvested for man's use
or lost to fire, insects and disease.

Rotary Club

Hears Rev. Smith
The Port St. Joe Rotary Club met
for its annual: Christmas. program,
last Thursday at the Motel St. Joe.
Featured on the program was
Rev. C. Byron Smith, pastor of the
First Baptist Church, who gave
the Rotarians an interesting "His-
tory of Christmas".
Christmas as we know it is a
fairly new innovation. Christmas
'became a legal holiday in the U.
S. only ;110 years ago, in 1856 and.
the first state to do so was Massa-
chusetts. Our Christmas observan-
ces have their roots from several
different countries. Saint Nicho-
las came from the Germans; Santa
Claus from the Dutch settlers of
New York and the Christmas Car-
ols from Dutoh and English writ-
ers.
Prior to' the 1850's, Christmas
was strictly a religious festival be-
ing observed by the Christian
church only and marked the an-
niversary of the Birth of the Sav-
iour. The date was picked because
of its convenience to other reli-
gious Christian observances.
Student guest of the Club last
I Thursday was Mike Weston, Stu-
dent Body President of Port St.
Joe High School.

Largest Shipment of Tall Oil Passes Through Local Port From Glidden Plant


One of the largest single ship-
ments of tall oil derivatives-only,
was sent to Europe from the Glid-
den Company plant in Port St. Joe,
Thursday, December 15. A single
tall oil product of well over 5001
tons was put into tank trucks and-
railroad tank cars at the Glidden
plant, and: moved across Highway
98, which borders the plant, to the
Port St. Joe deep-water port, docks.
At dockside, the liquid industrial
chemical was then. transferred by
pump, into the tankship.
The vessel used for this large:
shipment was the LIANA, a Norwe-
gian vessel of the Odfjell line. This
liquid-product tanker vessel is one
of several in1 the1 shipping com-
pany's line thit is built with all
stainless 'steel tanks; this makes
the tanks easier to clean between
divergent products carried by the
vessel. This load of tall oil deriva-
tive (a product of .pine tree by-
products chemistry) is destined for
several ports in Europe to go to
Glidden chemicals industrial cus-
tomers.
The tanker ship LIANA carries
a toal load of, almost 4,000 tons,
and makes twelve knots average
in her trips between ports on the

is best.
Container-grown rose plants are
"Florida Fancy No. 1Y2" and "Flor-
ida Fancy No. 2". Plants which do
not conform to standards for one
of these grades are not eligible for
any florida grade label. The best,
quality rose plant obtainable is a
"Florida Fancy" container-grown
plant with Rosa fortuniana root-
stock.
For those who lack a definite
green thumb, try the potted stock
as these plants are almost sure to
live.
- Varieties to plant can be a pro-
blem. Old-fashioned favorites have
advantages over the newcomers.
These include such roses as Louis
Phillipe, Summer Sunshine, Moth-
ers Day and Queen Elizabeth.
SITE
Plant roses for cut flowers in a
separate. cutting garden, because
they're far from handsome if prun-
ed properly, covered most of the
'time with protective fungicides
and denuded of flower buds daily.
' Select a site in a sunny location.
In the event the bed is located near
large plants, protect the rose bush-

Social Security Taxes Going Up To

4.4 Pct. for Employer and Employee

INSURANCE


A


The earnings of farm workers
are to be reported for Social Secur-
ity purposes before the end of Jan-
uary 1967, according to John V.
Carey, District manager- of the Pan-
ama City Social Security Office.
The Social Security report on farm
workers is only made once a year
and must cover wages paid during
the entire year 1966.
Farm workers who were paid as
es from marauding roots with a
sheet of metal roofing buried ver-
tically along the side of the bed.
Prepare the planting site prior
to securing the rose bushes. If the
soil is loose, light and sandy, re-
move it to a depth of 15 inches
and replace with compost of rot-
ted leaves, manure and rich ham-
mock soil. For best growth, be
sure the replaced material is quite
acid. Many sandy soils in. south
Florida contain too much lime for
best rose production, say Univer-
sity of Florida rose specialists.
Choose an overcast day for plant-
ing. First chack the plant carefully
and cut back the bush to four or
five eyes. Trim off all broken roots.
, Be sure the planting holes are
large enough to accommodate the
roots without crowding In the bot-
tom of each hole drop a handful
of garden fertilizer and cover light-
ly with top soil. Dip the roots of
each plant in a bucket of water
just before planting. Insert the
new bush so that the root system
will stand at the. same level that
it stood in the nursery row.
With a slow stream of water
from a hose, Iwork the soil about
'the roots, filling the hole to the
ground level. Pack firmly and put
a 'saucer of earth about the plant
to hold water.
When the rose bushes begin to
leaf out, -keep an eye out for dis-
eases such as black spot, brown
canker, and powdery mildew. In-
sect pests that may harm the bush-
es will include aphids, thrips, pum-
pkin bugs, cottony-cushion scale
and red spider mites.
Your county agricultural -agent
will be your best source of infor-
mation on controlling these insects
and 'diseases. Ask him for Bulle-:
tin 180A, "Roses in Florida."


January 16 Is Due Date for Final

Payment of 1966 Estimated Taxes

Jacksonville, Florida Monday, ping a post card to your District
January 16, 1967, is the due date Director, Internal Revenue Service,
for the final payment of 1966 esti- 21 W. Church Street, Jacksonville,
mated Federal income tax, accord- Florida 32202.
ing to F. S. Schmidt, District Direc-
tor of Internal Revenue in Florida. *


much as $150 cash wages for the
entire year 1966 must be reported,
Carey continued. A farm worker
who was not paid $150 cash wages
must also be reported if he worked
some part of 20 different days dur-
ing 1966.
Individuals who employ farm
workers will receive the necessary
report forms from the Internal Re-
venue Service if they made a re-
port for the year 1965, Carey add-
ed. Employers of farm workers
who have not made the yearly So-
cial Security report should request
the necessary form, 943, from In-
ternal Revenue, Jacksonville, Flor-
ida, right away.
Employers are responsible for
paying the total Social Security tax
to Internal Revenue, Carey con-
cluded. The total tax for wages
paid during 1966 was 8.4 percent-
4.2 for the worker and 4.2 for the
employer. The tax rate will go up
to 4.4 each on wages paid after
December 1966.
For further information on tax
matters, contact the Internal Re-
venue Service; and always contact
your nearest Social Security office
on all Social Security or Medicare
matters. The office for this area
