Schools Asking for Substitute Teachers Gulf County Superintendent of Public Instruction, Marion Craig, asked this week that all who will serve as substitute teachers in the Gulf County schools this year' reg- ister with his office or with the of- fice of any school. He asked that those with college degrees, some college work or high school grad- -uates, interested in serving as sub- stitutes to register. The school system is trying to locate more substitutes than usual this year, in the face of possible FEA walk-outs. "We must keep the schools operating, by law, in spite of any threatened or real walk- out." Paper Mill Starts Two Week Shut Down Today Tom S.

Early Morning Fire 'Destroys Beach Bar An early morning fire Friday of last week completely destroyed the Wonder Bar cafe and motel at St. Joe Beach. The fire was discovered by pas- sing motorists and reported, but the inside of the building was completely engulfed in flames when the blaze was discovered. -, At first it was feared that a care- taker of the property was in the building when it was burned, but he was located Friday about noon. Pete Harrell, owner of the beach business was in Michigan attending a funeral at the time of the fire. Cause of the blaze is under in- vestigation by the State Insurance Commission office. The investiga- tion is routine, since all fires of unknown origin in the Port St. Joe area are now investigated. School Board Plans to Levy 14.11 Mills to Finance Budget The Gulf County Board of Public Instruction will hold hearings Fri- day afternoon at 1:00 P.M., CST, on a proposed bone and a half mil- lion dollar budget for the new fis- cal year, which began on July 1. The hearing will be held in the offices of the County Superinten- dent Added to the operation budget of $1,452,684.52 will be a budget for capital improvement-construc- tion of two new high schools-in the amount of $2,320,871.33. The operational budget is $50, 500 less than last year's budget, but will require more local millage to finance than last year. Last year's millage for school purposes was set at 12.3. This year's has been tentatively set at 14.11 for an increase of 2.8 mills. The largest deviations from last year's budget in the income side are in all three avenues of income. Some are up, some are down. Cash carry-over for the coming year is less than last year by some $44,000. Last year, the school had $94,994 in cash carry-over. This year it is only $58,844.00. Receipts from state and federal sources are less this year by $19,000. Last year this source yielded $916,689. This year, the Board expects only $897,- 702.52. Local funds are taking nearly a $65,000 jump from $423,- 309 for last year to $488,578 this year. This is the money raised by local ad valorem taxes. The largest area of increase in the new budget will be instruction- al personnel salaries. This item will increase by $94,000 to provide for a. 1.0% raise in instructional salaries. A village levy breakdown shows that the Board is planning to levy 3.3 mills for county support and maintenance out of a possible 10 mills. The Board will levy 10 mills as allowed by the freeholders of the county over and above the state limit and .81 mills for debt service. A complete breakdown of esti- mated income and expenditures can be found on page 12 of this issue of The Star. -. -.--..- -, - ___ .-. i~--. ~~::- -*- ----=~-~----- -~ -. --- Club Honors Alsobrook The Port St. Joe Kiwanis Club honored its long-time member and treasurer, Tom Alsobrook at the club's meeting Tuesday.

Mouchette One Killed In Three County Wrecks One man was killed, for Gulf's third highway fatality of the year and one seriously injured in three automobile accidents in the Port St. Joe vicinity during the past week, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. Killed was Jake Mouchette of Port St. Joe, a local businessman. Mouchette died as the result of injuries received in an accident late Monday night on Highway 71. The first of the three accidents occurred last Friday afternoon at 6:30 in Highland View on Highway 98, across from the Gulf Service Station, when three cars piled up in the middle, of the highway. Trooper Ken Murphy said that his investigation showed that an auto driven by Granville Jones, Jr., of Panama City was towing a sec- ond car toward Panama City when the tow-bar came loose, causing him to lose control of his auto. Jones overturned and the towed car struck a new sedan headed to- ward Port St. Joe being driven by Clarence Monette of Avenue B in Port St. Joe. Monette and a pas- senger in his car, Albert Wynn re- ceived cuts and bruises in the ac- cident. Sunday morning at 10:30 a.m., Mrs. Thelma P. Keller of Gulf Breeze had stopped her station wa- gon on Highway 98 2.5 miles South of Port St. Joe to remove some- thing from the back end. A second car, driven by Elliot Ballard of Tyndall AFB struck the vehicle in the rear. Ballard's ve- hicle-went off the right side of the road, traveled 150 feet and turned over once. He was taken to the Mu- nicipal Hospital wtih minor injur- ies. The Keller woman was charged with parking on the highway.

Rich, operator of Rich's IGA was coming toward White City in his produce truck with a load of produce, when the lights went out on his late model truck. Rich could- n't see and his truck went off the right shoulder of the road and tra- veled 249 feet before coming back upon the Highway, where it turn- At this same time an automo- bile occupied by Mrs. Hazel Har- den Tyler of Wewahitchka and Jake W. Mouchette was approach- ing the truck from Port St. Joe and hit the truck just a minute or two after it rolled over in the road. Trooper Murphy said that Mrs. Tyler, who was driving the car had apparently saw the truck's lights go out and had tried to stop, since the car had skidded sideways into the truck. Both Mouchette and Mrs. Tyler were taken to the Municipal Hos- pital with serious injuries, where Mouchette died early yesterday morning. Neither Rich, nor Billy Joe Rich, Jr., who were still in the truck at the time of the impact, were in- jured. No charges were filed. Trooper Murphy was assisted in his investigation by Deputy James Pickron and Port St. Joe policeman Allen R. Watson.

Junior High Football Practice Starts Monday Junior High football practice will begin Monday, August 28, ac- cording to an announcement from the athletic department of Port St. Joe High School. The practice was originally scheduled to begin to- day, but has been postponed 'due to the delay in the beginning of school. SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE STAR M i PAGE "WO THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Florida THURSDAY, AUGUST 24, 1967 Editorials Time To Modernize The most important single fact about the political system of the United States is that its original design as set forth in the Constitution was so well thought out that it has served to protect the rights and freedoms of the individual citizen for some 180 years. Its continued effec- tiveness in this regard depends upon the proper functioning of our. federal system of government-a combination of a strong central government with definite powers limited by the Constitution and vital, effective state governments to temper this central authority. The Bill of Rights, which sets forth the constitutional guarantees of individual freedom, in Article 12 states, "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively,. or to the people." Many au- thorities argue today that the states are losing the broad residual powers granted to them by these words-that they have failed to meet their responsibilities to collect taxes and adequately direct the administration of their affairs and te organization of new programs required in today's context of a rapidly developing wealthy nation of some 200 million people. But, we say, the states are not losing these rights, they are giving them away. In many broad areas of welfare, in provision of public facilities such as roads and schools, in legislative organization and city planning, state governments more and more look to the federal government for financial aid and direction. They accept with it a lessening of their own authority to direct and control affairs in these areas with the flexibility required to best meet state and local requirements. The Committee for Economic Development, a nonprofit research and, educational organization, has proposed a plan entitled "Modernizing State Government", which puts top priority on revision of state constitutions. The obser- vation is made that ". .. most states share one common failure-persistent refusal to restructure their own gov- ernments or to modernize those of local units." In some states, there is crippling, detailed, constitutional restric- tion 'of the legislatures' taxing and spending authority which makes it impossible for them to effectively deal with long-range problems affecting the state at large. The CED report recommends annual legislative, sessions and higher salaries for members. Governors should be given the authority required to place them in a position of being ". chief executives in fact as well as in name." They ".. should have authority and responsibility for develop- ing long-range plans, for program supervision, and for budget and personnel management, with adequate staff and resources suited to these functions." Other recom- mendations dealing with judicial functions, political or- ganization and interstate co-operation in solving mutual problems are advocated to make the individual states the responsible, effective, legal and political entities which they must become if the federal system, as we have known it, is to survive. These observations are especially important to the State of Florida at this time, when the Legislature is at work drafting a new Constitution. It seems that most of the changes in the original draft are weakening the posi- tion of the sovereign state, rather than strengthening it. Governor Kirk proved last week that the Governor is not much more than a figure-head, when' he absented him- self from the State Cabinet meeting, where most serious state business is conducted, and the meeting went on re- gardless of his absence. This proves his point that the office of Governor is not as important for the state's well- being as it sounds. Maybe you think placing more power in the hands of the Governor is placing too many eggs in one basket, putting too much dependence on one man. But the proposed Constitution provides for the office of Lieu- tenant Governor to take over on the failure or death of the Governor. A Governor is elected on his platform, no matter who he may be. He deserves the power to carry out his program. If the program is not our liking, we can change after four years. Malcolm Johnson, editor of the Tallahassee Democrat this past Sunday hit at the state's inability to finance the school system with taxes that could be depended on. He said sales tax revenue is too uncertain, yet the state can- not tax personal property. Then this past week the Sen- ate agreed on limiting a county's millage for school pur- poses to five mills. It now stands at a limit of 10 mills with each county having the prerogative of voting an addi- tional 10 mills for school purposes. This, again places the need for school financing on some source other than local. Since the state does not have the taxing resources to levy a stable tax, the responsibility then falls to the federal gov- ernment. Almost to a man we bow up in the middle at Federal controls, but we place ourselves in the position of having to depend upon federal money, and, federal controls. We're all against federal controls, as long as it affects someone else. It's time we became concerned about the future of our own state in relation to the federal controls that are creeping upon us willingly. State governments, including Florida, are unquestion- ably on trial today. If we are not willing to pay the price, if we cannot change where change is required, then we have only one recourse. And that is to prepare for an orderly transfer of our remaining responsibilities to the federal government. LARRY STAFFORD Larry Stafford Earns Master's Degree Larry Stafford, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Stafford of White City, graduated August 15, from Georgia Southern College in Statesboro, Georgia. He complet- ed requirements for the Master of Education degree with a ma- jor in school administration and supervision. He has taught in the public school system of Georgia and is presently employed by the Escambia County Board of Pub- lic Instruction in Pensacola. Seaman Mathis Is Serving On Tanker USS MATTABESSET (FHTNC)- Seaman Ronald G. Mathis,' USN, son of Mr. and Mrs. Grady Mathis of 1313 McClellan Ave., Port St. Joe, and husband of the former Miss Grace Mazzaferrd of 429 Front St., Greenport, Long Island, N. Y., is serving aboard the gasoline tank- er USS Mattabesset which returned to Little Creek, Va., from five months in the Mediterranean. The Mattabesset steamed with the U. S. Sixth Fleet amphibious and minesweeping forces providing logistic support. His ship carries gasoline, and other fuel oils which it transfers to ships either at an- chor or underway. During the deployment the Mat- tabesset participated in amphib- ious training exercises with NATO forces and the Sixth Fleet. CLASSIFIED ADSI Midget Investments That Yieid Giant Returnsl I don't know who to thank, but I sure don't want the oppor tunity to go by of offering my thanks for the kind favor that has been done me. I certainly appreciate the professional football games being played and televised on Monday nights. There just couldn't possibly be a better time. This is the one night in the week I can watch them. It doesn't interfere with the week end ball games nor other programs. Now, if we could just arrange it so that the games would start about a half hour earlier, everything would be just dandy. But late or no, we will have to watch our favorite Green Bay Packers play next Monday, even if the game runs to midnight. * I wonder if you really know how to appreciate Port St. Joe's Volunteer Fire Department? To really know how to offer your true appreciation, you would have to be a fireman for a middle-of- the-night fire. It just has to be a pure joy to get rousted out of bed in the middle of the night or the wee early hours of the morning and be expected to function full speed ahead at a mo- ment's notice. We have been a Volunteer Fireman for nearly 15 years now, and that getting up in the middle of the night is getting rougher and rougher. And the day following, is getting rougher still. But every once in a while someone says, "I appreciate it", and things are a little easier. * Things were going along pretty smooth, with hardly an auto- mobile accident marring our day, when, lo and behold, here the past two weeks, four serious accidents and one lesser one have occurred in and about Port St. Joe. It seems that the accidents started when Mayor Pate and Chief Griffin asked us to publicize the fact that motorists should take a little more care since school is about to get underway. Maybe this request for caution wasn't the cause of the acci- dents, but the rash of accidents certainly point out vividly the need for emphasis on increased caution by our motorists. * We had a house full of "company" all last week. The first part of the week, our friends the Buttram's from Quincy, were with us, and the last half of the week, our brother-in-law and his wife from Warner Robins, Ga., visited in our house. Friday, the brother-in-law took our two "at home" boys and Bill Hendrix out into the bay fishing and they did pretty good. They caught 23 Spanish mackerel. But Saturday, we just decided to show them the expert way to do things, and went along with them, out into the bay, fishing for mackerel. With our able as-. sistance, the catch Saturday morning for a two and a half hour trip, was 175 Spanish mackerel. Not bragging, mam, just stating the facts. Say You Saw It In The Star - Too Late 1 By Rus <",, g y ..." . Florida News Service I thought when they raised post- age rates awhile back it might dis- courage the eager beavers who for years have flooded the mails with a varied assortment of junk mail. Instead it seems to have inspir- ed them to greater efforts. While you and I are penalized with, a postage rate of 5c for first class mail to help relieve the burden and are threatened with even high- er rates, these junk mail artists continue to load our postman with more and more worthless and un- desired material. Every day I receive from two to 20 junk mail appeals. Few are addressed to me personally, usual- ly to "Occupant" or "Resident" which include everything from post cards to 20 page booklets all advising me that if I do not act now and take advantage of some idiotic special offer I will regret ro Classify sell Kay it to my dying day. I am advised that I can win any- thing from a Persian Harem to a trip to the moon if I will just at- tach my personal private number in the proper place and mail it pronto. I don't have to assume any obligation, buy anything or risk a dime. It seems that about ten thousand business organizations are stand- ing in line with several billion dollars worth of cash and merchan- dise, eager to give it to me, if I'll just return the card. Maybe somebody, somewhere, may have won one of these prizes. But if they did I have never heard of it. I know a lot of people who took the trouble to return their card but I have yet to hear of a sin- gle one that ever won even a rusty mouse trap.

My shoulders ache every time I see the poor postman advancing, stoop shouldered, to my door for I know that he is carrying a dozen or more pieces of junk mail that I will have to throw in the waste basket. The pitiful part of it is that I receive the same offers from the same idiots over and over again. As an "Ocupant" or "Resident" I am sucker number 1. Evidently enough people fall for the gag to make it worth while but I question it when I receive once a week or more an offer to insure me against anything from warts to lumbago provided I am not over 60 years of age when I am over 70. The only satisfaction I get out of such com- munications is the knowledge that the poor dumb clucks got no return on their heavy investment in print- ing and postage soliciting a guy who is unqualified in the first place. I for one would like to see all of this type of mail abolished and a requirement that these leeches be required to pay the first class rate on anything they drop in the mail box. It might not reduce pos- tal rates, but it would give them something to think about. -------II IT'S SCHOOL TIME AGAIN! CHILDREN ARE UNPREDICTABLE SAFETY IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY WHEN IN DOUBT . STOP!

Safety Film Shown To Rotary Club "Safety Is No Accident". This was the title of a film shown to the Port St. Joe Rotary Club last Thursday at their regular dinner meeting in the Motel St. Joe Din- ing Room. The film, produced by the Ford Motor Company, showed the exten- sive research that goes into making the modern day automobile safer to drive on the highways. Tests in the Ford laboratories show that conditions and compon- ents in the vehicle are responsible for many accidents and injuries as the result of accidents. The re- search program is designed to make the automobile as safe to operate .as is humanly possible and to search for ways of better pro- tecting passengers from serious in- juries in case of accidents. Guests of the club were Wayne Buttram, Quincy; Bernard Wilson, Madison; T. L. Callahan, New Or- leans; Walter Durham, Valdosta; Jim Moore, Pensacola; Tom Mc- Dermott, Port St. Joe and Howard Wooden, Jr., of Warner Robins, Ga.

The present provisions of the Con-, stitution places in the Commission the full responsibility for manag- ing and regulating the wildlife and fresh water fish of the state. According to W. T. McBroom, Commission Chairman, a change in the Constitution would place the -state's wildlife and fresh water fish conservation programs under the jurisdiction of the Legislature rather than the present constitu- tional Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission. The Constitution pres- used for the conservation of wild- life and fresh water fish. McBroom said, "The Legislature that proposed the Constitutional amendment, creating the present day Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission, in 1941 and the peo- ple of Florida that approved it in the general election of 1942 and again in 1960 did so with full knowledge of the inadequacies of the system that existed prior to 1943. We think that the interested public believed that maximum sta- bility and efficiency in fish and wildlife conservation could best be achieved by a system permitt- ing maximum and immediate know- ledge and application of scientific principles in wildlife conservation while at the same time maintain- ing close direct liason with those ently dictates that all hunting and persons-hunters, fishermen and fishing license monies, and other other wildlife enthusiasts-most in- Commission revenue funds, will be terested in the subject. We believe e ctive AJ~I2I I WATER S5KNl G j~n """| .st. ^ fitH* that the present system most near- ly meets these conditions. Historically, nation-wide conser- vation has prospered most in a governmental system and climate where the conservation agency has been most free within the frame- work of its creating authority to make policy and decisions based on sound practices and principles of conservation. McBroom said, "Without claim- ing credit for the accomplishments of any past or present member of the Commission or staff, the effec- tiveness of the work and program of the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission has improved and the public has been the beneficiary. The staff works under a uniform merit system and has become thor- oughly professional and dedicated to its task. Since the appointment of the first constitutional Commis- sion in January. 1943, Florida has risen from a position of obscurity to one of leadership in the field of wildlife conservation, and is so rec- ognized throughout North Amer- ica." He added, "There appears to be in the legislature some philosophi- cal objection to an agency being established by the Constitution ra- ther than the Legislature., I sup- pose the best argument for the present Commission is: It has worked and, judging by the 1942 and 1960 popular vote, the. people of Florida want it like 'it is." The Commission 'Chairman con- tinued, "The Game and Fresh Wa- ter Fish Commission will stand on its record as a consuttional con- servation agency by inviting the comparison of its achievements over the past 25 years with the time prior to its creation' or with other states of the southeast that are under a legislative system. Port St. Joe needs an Airport Outlook Florida... by Governor Claude R. Kirk fight it as vigorously. "One of the things that concerns me most as Governor is making sure that our steadily growing pop- ulation is assured of job opportun- ities and regular paychecks. "Florida is one of America's greatest growth states-and our major growth still lies in the won- derful years that are just ahead. But for our people to participate in that growth' and share in its benefits means that every Florida citizen who wants to work must have an opportunity to get on someone's payroll. "There's a lot of talk about juve- nile delinquency-about tension- and about unrest. You and I know that the best cure for these un- healthy conditions is hard work- with a regular paycheck' at the end of every week. The citizen who is employed, who is raising a fam- ily, who is a respected member of his community is someone who takes pride in himself, in his fam- ily, in his job. "No amount of Federal Give- away Programs, no amount of wel- fare dollars, no amount of the best-meant charity can do one- tenth as much as a real job, with a chance at advancement and more money, to give a young man or wo- man a sense of belonging. And peo- ple who belong to the community and who are a valued part- of its life don't get involved in riots, crime or delinquency. "That's why during the time I'm privileged to serve as your Gover- nor I want to make sure we bring those new job opportunities and those new payrolls into Florida- and to make sure the business we already have expand to make more jobs available. "And I want everyone to have an equal opportunity. I don't want any Floridian to be left out and I don't want any Floridian to suffer from discrimination. That's as unameri- can as Communism and we must "Just a few weeks ago I signed into law the first Legislation in Florida's history to prohibit dis- crimination of any sort in state em- ployment. It's a fine piece of Leg- islation and I am proud it became a law .during my administration. "Since I became Governor, I've spent many hours and traveled many miles to make sure we would have the new jobs and payrolls we need for a healthy Florida econ- omy. I thought you'd be interested in some of the results. "Westinghouse is building 'new plants at Tampa and at Pensacola. These two plants will mean a total of 'eight hundred new jobs. IBM is building a new computer plant at Boca Raton with 400 new jobs to become available before the end of this year. Anheuser-Busch is build- ing a forty million dollar brewery at Jacksonville. Florida Power Cor- poration is constructing a new thir- ty million dollar nuclear power plant at Crystal River. An electron- ics firm, Solitron, has announced a two million dollar expansion at Ri- viera Beach that will add 435 new jobs. "These are just a few of the new investments, by business and indus- try in Florida. Before the year is out, 40,000 new jobs will be made available according to our current projections. "That's a lot of jobs and a lot of pay envelopes and a lot of happy and secure families." "But we don't intend to stop there. I've established a Florida office in Washington to make sure Florida firms ge their share of federal contracts. In one month alone, April, Florida firms were awarded defense department con- tracts that amounted to more than twelve and a half million dollars. That's a lot of money-and a lot of pay envelopes. "Right now, the Florida Indus- trial Commission tells me there are many thousands of job opportuni- ties in Florida. I intend that these job opportunities are going to keep on growing and growing so long as I am your Governor. I intend that every Floridian who wants to work will have the opportunity to earn a regular paycheck. That's the kind of "good society" I want to build with you in Florida. Together, we're going to do it." SsPINES 1Stand Tall fIfi r In Florida's l Future! L CLASSIFIED ADS Midget Investments with Giant Returnsl Office Supplies.....

Stevens said he used live chophers for bait caught by his nephew Jay Stevens. So, you might say, these two tarpon were "A Family Affair". Star photo William F. (Bill) Maddox William F.
