Tentative School Budget


Reduced by 2.83 Mills


The Gulf County School Board
met Tuesday and tentaively set
their budget for the new school
year at $2,061,679.08. This re-
Mflects an increase of $608,994.46
over last year with all of the in-
crease coming from increased
state money coming into the
county. The increased state mon-
ey was more than the budget
-hike, which was reflected in a'
reduction of local ad valorem
taxes. -
The rate of taxing locally for
the -new budget year has been
tentatively set at 11.28 mills, a
reduction of 2.83 mills, over last
year. The reduction was made
possible by the increased 'state'
money and increased property
valuations (expansion at St. Joe'
Paper Company and the SCM
Glidden-Durkee Division).
'The largest increase in the ex-
penditures side of the budget is


in instructional salaries, as would
be expected after the special ses-
sion of the Legislature giving
teacher salary hikes during this
past spring. Salaries for teachers
jumped from $899,174.00 last
year to $1,073,940.00 for the
coming year.
Other increases were shown
with administration getting $64,-
750.92 in the new budget. This
item took $50,603.52 last year.
Operation of plants was expand-
ed by $18,250 to $109,750.. Main-
tenance of plants was set at $46,-
447 for an increase of $4,000.
Pupil, transportation jumped
from $38,000 to $46,135..
The School Board is advertis-
ing its tentative budget in this
week's issue of The Star. The
Board is planning a public hear-
ing on Friday, August 16 at
5:00 p.m. ih the County Board
meeting room in the Courthouse.


Local Dixie Youth Team oses First

Game In Tournament to 'Bartow, 8-0


Port St. Joe's district cham-
pion Dixie Youth League team
lost its opening round in the
state tournament Monday night
to tlie host team. The tourna-
ment is under way this week in
Bartow.
The Bartow nine collected five

across eight runs. The Bartow

three hits. The team committed
three miscues in the-.game.
Port St, Joe drew a "b'ye" on
Tuesday, but met a strong
Lakeland team last night. Lake-


land defeated Pensacola Tues-
day night.
Lamar Moore, Port St. Joe's
league president, told The Star
by long-distance telephone yes-
terday that a combination'" of
things helped to spell defeat for
Port St. Joe. The boys were tired
after their trip and a day of sight
seeing Monday. There was a
crowd of 4,000, on hand,. which
the boys had not seen before,
and the field was grassed on the
infield and outfield which was
also foreign to the local nine.
Moore said the boys must win
to stay in the tournament. One-
more loss and the tournament is
over so far as Port St. Joe is con-
cerned. -

Time To Landsc


When a young couple gets married and starts a new
family in. their chosen community, the first thing they
think of is purchasing and owning a nice new home ...
a home they can be proud of and put their energies and re-
sources into.
But this new home doesn't come easy. Most young
married couples are dead broke. They need everything-
and that "everything" costs money. But by scrimping,
saving and "wanting" a home very badly, they somehow
manage to get the down payment, together and make a
deal for at least a nice '"second-Jand" home or they rea-
lize their fondest dreams and purchase a new home.
A new home means new furniture to most every wo-
man. So the young marrieds begin figuring again and
after a while, they have as much new furniture hi their
new home as they can conscientiously obligate themselves
for. After all this, the young couple is pretty well strap-
ped. But regardless of their financial condition, most
young couples are proud and happy over their new home
regardless of the debt they owe.
Even with all of this figuring to get a new home and
new furniture, the couple still wants other people to enjoy
their new place of abode, so they set about to make the
outside pleasing to the eye. Regardless of their debt;
their obligations; they somehow manage to make their
new home pleasing to the eye on the outside as well as on
the outside .. .and usually they are not very long at it.
Which brings us to the parallel.

Gulf County has secured for itself a new home. It
was with pride that the County moved into this new home
: in February of this year, complete with new furnishings
and all. We .too were pretty well strapped to pay for it
-though not so much that we; cannot- bear the load.
About one eighth of our tax load for county purposes goes
to pay for this new home, which isn't as great a percent-
age, as the average person obligates himself for a new
home.
Why is it that we haven't been as proud of this home
ah the young couple moving into their new home? Why
',haven't we begun yet to landscape our new home and make
it as presentable on the outside as-it is 'on the inside? We
feel that the grounds of the new Courthouse could have
been' landscaped to some degree by this time in spite of
being short of cash.
.Eveapas understanding for the first few months
of e.e new building. After all, 'we didn't
e' lawn or shrubbery. But after seven
wd-[ 'el that some steps' should be taken to begin
g. s.g .the new Courthouse grounds. We believe it
is high time to dress our $1 million building up in a suit-
able outside wardrobe.

Complete School NeededNow!
Mayor Frank Pate made a statement at the ground
breaking ceremony for the new Port St. Joe High School
Saturday afternoon, with which we can wholeheartedly
agree. We think it is time for others besides the school
, board to start thinking on this subject and bring it to
fruition.
Mayor Pate challenged the school board in his ad-
dress in suggesting that they proceed in finding a way
to finish the building on which construction was begun
this past week. As you know, a portion of the building
was left off for lack of money.
The school board has done things in the past that'
we could not agree with 'and they have met our approval
on many occasions. We feel the same can be said of your
feelings toward the board. But we believe that everyone
can concur with their plans of providing adequate and.
serviceable facilities for our children now and in the fu-
ture. It would be a pity to force some of these plans
out of the running because of a lack of money.
We were glad to see the Mayor come out and endorse
the completion of this school and hope that each of you,
as individual citizens, will do the same. Mayor Pate made
his statement knowing that it would cost money, and the
only place this money can come from is from him and the
other tax payers of this county.
It will cost us money to complete our new school'
building as the plans call for. It will cost each tax payer
approximately $1.75 per year for each $1,000 of taxable-
property he owns.
When our new high school building is finished-if
it is finished completely-we will be proud of one of the
finest buildings in the state of Florida; and is Superin-
tendent Craig says, "that takes in .a ,lot of territory the
other side of Blountstown". We 'will have one of the,
most serviceable buildings in the state at about the lowest
cost per square foot of any building now under construc-
tion in thh state.
If we do not insist upon full completion at this time,
it will be several years before it is ever finished. In the
meantime, we will have an unfinished plant that looks
"unfinished". We will have some phases of our school
program inadequately housed and with improper facilities
even after spending nearly one and a half million dollars
to provide for new and up-to-date facilities.
Some months back our teachers struck charging im-
proper provision of teaching facilities and tools. We char-
ged that the teachers were wrong in their beliefs because"
we were in the process of bringing a new, modern plant.
into being. If we do not complete.the job now, we will
only be proving that the teachers were right in their rea-
son for striking. Their contention that we are unwilling
to adequately provide For education will be valid.

Trotsky, who showed marked

to reorganize the army. Officers
I of the imperial Army had to
serve in the service of the So-
viet Government and the famil-
ies of absent officers were mur-
dered. The1 critical shortage of
food .in 'the towns enabled the'
Government to make subsistence'
depend on service; categories
were established, by which the
advantage in the distribution
r went first to the Communist
Party, next to manual workers,
and thirdly to brain-workers in
the service of the government.
Endless ingenuity, enterprise
and money were expended on
propaganda which absorbed the


ordinary work of education.
This propaganda did more than
anything else to break up the
forces of resistance in Russia
against the Communists, and
produced for a time unexpected
results even among populations
of the allied countries which
supported them.
Above all, ruthless terrorism
was applied wherever the Bol-
shevist arm reached. Large num-
bers of officers had been killed
from the very outset of the
Bolshevik movement; and when
Uritsky, the director of the Bol-
shevik police was assassinated
and a Socialist Revolutionary
lodged a bullet in Lenin (Aug.

were immediately conducted' in
the prisons. Thus, the ordinary

system of justice with trained
judges and a regular procedure
was superseded by a code in
whichI the first of crimes was
opposition in deed, word or
thought to Communism or to the
Communist rulers.
The peasantry at first kept up
a series of local uprisings, which
were with difficulty crushed byr
the most ruthless measures.
Their conspirative experience in
the past enabled the Bolsheviks
by a system of universal espion-
age, especially in the factories
and in the army, to anticipate
any movement agaisnt them.
Free use was also made of a sys-
tem of hostages. In this way
perished two of Russia's finest
generals, Ruzsky and Dmitriev.
All this, however, if taken
alone, would in no wise account
for the Communist success. The
peasants themselves at last pos-
sessed' the whole of the land and
were deeply suspicious of any
chance of its restoration to its
former owners. In the general

tility of the last Czar, the cor-

Air Force Needs
Women for WAF

"The Air Force provides a means
of self-involvement for young' wo-
men seeking a worthwhile career
in which they can achieve their
fullest potential.".
That's the philosophy offered by
Col. Jeanne Holm, director of the
Women in the Air Force (WAF),
during a discussion on the New
WAF program.
In discussing the New WAF con-
cept, the colonel referred to her
recent statement saying, "I am
often asked why we have women
in the military today. The reasons
are quite simple-we need them
and they want to serve-they want
to be involved, to do their 'thing'
. and they have the right, in-
deed the obligation to serve their
country in some capacity.
She said that success in the WAF
comes to those who' perform their
duties with highest professional
competence yet retain their ability
to remain feminine.
Referring to the recently appro-
ved increases in WAF members
and liberalizing WAF assignment
policies, Colonel Holm said the
New WAF is giving women wider
opportunities to take part in more
meaningful jobs and to do what
has to be done all over the world.
She' said as the number of WAF
increase so will their contribu-
tions.
Asked about the new WAF uni.-
form, Colonel Holm said, "I expect
the uniform to have a dramatic im- .
pact on the WAF image. The new
uniform is an outward sign of pro-
gress experienced by the WAF
during the past 20 years."
For more details on the New
WAF, interested young women
high school and college graduates
should contact Sergeant Claude
Cowart at room 206, Post Office
Building in Panama City or tele-
phone,763-1301 for an appointment.

for a Communist revolution in
industrial countries. For this, the
centralized government, taken
over from the war period, was
retained and strengthened. But
a centrifugal reaction, after the
tight pressure of war collectiv-
ism, was in process in other
countries. In England and in the'
new Czechoslovakia, the two
healthiest states in Europe, the
success, of Communist propagan-
da reached its culmination in the
middle of 1920 and then rapidly
reclined, ending for the time, in
evident and admitted failure.
France and America also held
firmly against it; and in Italy,
Spain and Poland came reaction
and Facism. After the crisis of
the Polish War, Germany also
seemed immune, though Com-
munist hopes were again to rise
with the occupation of the Ruhr
.in 1923.


Max Kilbourn announced to the Rotary Club Thursday that
.he was in receipt of a letter from Governor Claude Kirk congratu-
lating him upon assuming the presidency of the local club. M
reported to the club that he wrote the Governor back, saying:
'"Thank you Governor for your kind letter of congratulations. I
wish to wish you luck, too, An your campaign for the Vice-Presi-
dency of the United States.. so you'll get the hell out of Flor.-i
Idal"
Shame, Max! .s that anything for a former supporter of the
Governor to say?

Ever since Russia started their "maneuvers" in Czechoslovakia
we have'been' watching the papers. The demonstrations just, had ::
to start. The Russian embassies in the capitals of the world just
had to become the targets of stones, ink, mobs, fire bombs, etc. It
just had to be. It has happened in the past to the U. S. for '"Inter-
fering" in Vietnam, in Lebanon, in Israel, etc.
But the riots and demonstrations didn't come. Not in London,
not in Paris, not in Stockholm, not in Hong Kong, nor Brisbane, nor
Toronto' not even in Prague.
One or two national columnists have wondered why the Gov-
ernment of the United States has not made world-wide notice of
the Russians forcing their attentions upon a small, helpless coun-
try by the big, giant bear, but other than that. .. nothing.
This would seem to back up our contention of last week that
riots in our day are not spontaneous. They are well planned .. by
enemies of the U. S. The Czech problem should also cause the
Government of the United States to consider riots aganist our em-
bassies in other nations for what they are and not as a spontaneous .
opinion of the people of those nations.


We had occasion to ride up Eighth Street the other day be-
tween Monument and Long Avenues. As we passed by the home
of Roy Irwin, who retired last year, we saw a basketball goal in
his yard. We have been wondering ever since what someone of
Mr. Irwin's advanced years would want with a basketball goal
In his yard.


In one of our "exchange" newspapers, we found these words
last week: "Humphrey is worried and afraid that the voters will I
think the link between he and LBJ is just too great McCarthy is
afraid that they won't. Nixon is afraid that he is losing too many
delegates to Reagan. Reagan is worried because Nixon isn't. Rock-
efeller is just plain worried-and if we -had to have Kirk as our
running mate-we would worry, too..
"But collectively, they all nave a common fear .'. G. Cor-

There was only one way we

could improve on


Q-R flameless water heating.

(Reduce the rate.)



So we did it
In fact, homes with electric water heaters get the
new low rate of 1 V cents per kilowatt-hour on
one-quarter of all electricity used in excess of 180
kwh per month -not just on electricity used for
water heating.

More than 70% of our household customers now
enjoy this new low rate. If you don't, shouldn't you
switch to clean and flameless water heating?
And to help you make the switch, we're giving an
installation allowance of $25 to residential cus-
tomers who replace flame-type with electric water,
heaters between now and September 30th.
,Your plumbing contractor or appliance dealer will
.arrange with us for you to get this allowance. Then
.as soon as your flameless water heater is installed, \
: let us know and you'll be billed at the new low rate
:.and save every month!*
SWhy Q-R? It stands for "quick recovery" means
a that the hot water you use is speedily replaced. With
Sa Q-R flameless water heater, you're always in hot
water up to your neck!

S.' *If you heat water electrically and have not
applied for the water heater discount,
please notify our nearest office. If you have
applied, "WH-DC" on your bill means
you're now getting the water heater discount. I

Too Late To Classify
S, ,,y RUSSELL KAY


by RUSSELL KAY
Sometimes I find a bit of light
verse the most effective way to
express my, feelings sq I contrib-
ute the following for whatever
thought-provoking ability it may -
possess.
THE SLOTH
A slovenly sloth
Clung tight to his tree.
Although upside down
'He knew he was FREE.,
While other varmints
Sought Federal Aid
Demanded their rights
And marched in parades
/Mr, Sloth just hung there,
Content with 'his lot.
And seldom gave lifd a serious
thought,
"Sure I'm upside down he, mus-
ed with glee,
But the World is much :UP-
SIDE DOWNER than me."
With all the crazy marching,.
rioting, civil disobedience and
protests over just about anything
and everything throughout our
world today we seem to have lost
all sense of values .and have
reached a point where so many
folks are screaming for a guaran-
teed income without work, more
authority, more control whether
qualified or not, the world truly
seems to be UPSIDE DOWN.
It seems that about all our
institutions of. higher learning
have accomplished as far as edu-
cation is concerned, is' to have
produced a new breed of cats
that are opposed to any form of
control or discipline. They con-
tend that anybody over 30 years
of age are so stupid and dumb
they are unable to gasp, the
truth and are warts on the march
of' progress.
We are warned that if we
don't stand and deliver we can
expect to see our cities burned
to the ground, our government
destroyed, our schools and col-
leges taken over, and, our lead-
ers don't seem to have any an-
swers. They sit around biting
their little pink fingernails, wor-,


trying aboid how many voted
they might loseif they say this
or how- many votes they Maay
win if they do that.
In the meantime the millions
of hard working taxpayers wh6
are called upon to provide the
money for work without pay, au-
thority without ability, are left
holding the bag Those honest
God-fearing citizens are afraid
to walk our streets, afraid to call
their souls their own and as they,
look over the list of aspiring pol-
iticians who seek their votes, see
nothing that indicates aid or
comfort as far as they are con-
cerned. The law and order they
have been trying to maintain are
eroded day to day as lawmakers,
courts and other agencies do
their utmost to protect the crim-
inal, the trouble maker, the indi-
gent and agitators, who-can do
anything, say anything and hide
behind the same constitution that
was designed to protect the hon-
est citizen and deter the crimi-
nal,
Maybe we can return to sense
and, sanity before it is too late
but the outlook is not promising,
Public apathy has permitted
hate, intolerance arnd agreed to
take over and tomorrow is any-
body's guess.

Orders for pine seedlings for
planting are now being taken ac-
cording to County Ranger H. A.
Hardy of Gulf County.
Hardy said landowners and tree
farmers who wish to plant seed-
lings during the late fall and win-
ter months upcoming should make
application as soon now as pos-
sible.
"Florida for the past five years
has led all other states in tree
planting," Hardy said. "And the
three Florida Forest Service nur-
series expect a sell-out of the 70
million seedlings now growing.
Lifting of the young trees for
transplanting usually starts in De-
cember.
