Aquatic Preserve Faced With Rough Water
; B ~ ~ ~~ ~~~~~' .. \ : '. ^ *


A proposal by the Internal Im-
provement Fund of the State of
Florida to include all of St. Jo-
seph's Bay in a proposed "aqua-
tic preserve" ran into rough wa-'
f ter'this week as at least five or-
ganuzations in Gulf County en-
tered their objections to the
plan.
Aj",rding to the IIF plans, all
.-of St, -Joseph Bay and outside the
Peninsula all the way to Cape
San Bias and out into the Gulf
of Mexico for a distance of five
*mnites is proposed for one of 26
aquatic preserves throughout the
state.
'rObjections were made on the
"-grounds that the rules and regu-
ldtions of the aquatic preserve
could possibly interfere with the
se of' the, Bay as a fishing
ground, clam and oyster produc-

forbid dredging (which could al-
so include dredging for clams
and oysters) and could possibly
interfere with periodic dredging

utilizes hopper dredges which
carry material from the channel
to other p&rts of the Bay for

Organizations Object
Officially going on record as
objecting to the preserve for St.
Joseph Bay this past week were
the Gulf County Commitsion,
the Port St. Joe City Commission,
the Papermakers Union, the Pi-
lots Association and the local
Stevedores organization.
Tuesday night, the Port St.
Joe City Commission passed a
resolution to be sent to the Gulf
County Legislative delegation
asking that Gulf County be re-
moved from the proposed list dof


aquatic preserves.
Representative Joe Chapman,
representing Gulf, Bay and Cal-
hounm Counties this week sent a
letter to Governor Claude R. Kirk
stating, "I would like to urge
that nothing be done in terms of
official action in regard to aqua-
tic preserves in the area of Bay
and Gulf Counties until we have
an opportunity to better under-
stand the significance of such
designation."
Representative John Robert
Middlemas, representing the
same area had earlier stated, "I
see nothing Wrong with the pro-
posal". This was before any ob-
jections had been raised to the
project.

School Board Asks for


Forrest Park Opening


The Gulf County School Board
petitioned the City Commission
by a Resolution Tuesday night to
ask for the opening and paving
of Forrest Park Street to Niles
Road in lieu of Cypress Avenue,
as previously requested.
The Board made the request
because Cypress would run
through a portion of the school
property, dividing it. The School
Board did not specify any point
of beginning for Forrest Park
which is designated from 16th'
Street to the City Limits, but
none of it is open.
The Board pondered the mat-
ter of where to begin the street
and finally agreed to the switch"
in street paving requests pro-
vided Forrest Park be opened
from 16th Street to Niles Road,
with sidewalks, curbs.and gutters
and a bridge across the drain ca-

Water Prices
Sanitary Commissioner, Bob.
Fox presented a cost study of
'water and sewer services to the
Board' Tuesday night as a study
to see if the City could offer thq
community, of Oak Grove water
and sewer at a cheaper rate than
had been previously given.
Fox said, "I don't see how we
can reduce our price, since the
cost survey indicates- that the
City would be losing a few cents
per thousand at the price quoted.
Fox stated that based on the en-
gineers estimate of use for the
area, Oak Grove would be paying
an average of 75c per thousand
gallons for water and sewer ser-
vice and the service is now jcost-
ing the City .864 per th6tsand
gallons to serve the City of 'Port
St. Joe. The increased vo0ume
would cut this cost to anr esti-
mated .807 cents per thousand.
Fox noted to the Board 'that
this price was before bonds on '

Can We Live With It?


One of the most hastily introduced projects that has
far reaching consequences, to be brought to light ini
a long time, is the State's recently stated intention of cre-
ating an aquatic preserve in St. Joseph's Bay (all of the
bay) and the entire length of St. Joseph's Peninsula on the
Gulf side for five miles out into the Gulf.
After reading the rules and regulations for use arid
preservation of an "aquatic preserve" as outlined by the
State of Florida, we believe that this haste is ill advised.
The haste with which this project is being brought about is
a valid cause to oppose such restrictions for the entire bay
at least until a better understanding'of the rules and regu-
lations governing "aquatic preserves" can be spelled out.
This matter we believe to be so serious that every "i"
should be dotted and every "t" crossed and thoroughly ex-
, pained before the people in the proposed preserve areas are
asked to accept them,.
One stipulation in the prohibitions for a preserve is
that only "minimum dredging and spoiling for authorized
public navigation projects or other approved activity de-
signed to enhance the quality or utility of the preserve it-
self" will be allowed. What does this mean by "minim-
mum"? Is "minimum dredging" enough to keep the chan-
nel and harbor here at Port St..Joe open for shipping?
With freighters and tankers getting larger and longer,,
will these stipulations allow for the deepening and widen-
ing of our channel to handle future business? We need to
know specifically, not. generally.


Another prohibition is that' no drilling of oil well
shall be allowed in the preserve. The preserve in this area
extends for five miles in the Gulf. Are we to be deprived
of, the economic boom that of-shore drilling would bring
to this.area if oil should be discovered? '
These are only two of the prohibitions. There are oth
ers such as limitations on bulkheading, dredging and fill
ing, dredging for shell, very broad prohibitions toward
erection of structures on stilts, and many other. genera
prohibitions that could seriously hamper- our use of th
Bay and its shorelines in the future: and most of the use
we can think of, off-hand, would have nothing to do wit]
the preservation of aquatic life and breeding grounds.
As we see'it, most of the prohibitions set out in the
aquatic preserve are already governed to some extent b:
the Conservation Department at least those thing.
that would seriously upset the fish life in the bay. Fill
ing, dredging and bulkheading have long been governed
by the State, but the regulations are such ,that the area i
not harmed. If the proposals are not jurious to th
sea life and not objectionable to the citizens they are al
lowed. This is as it should be.
We are min the position that Representative Joe Chap
man has placed himself in. We request the Governor to
try and hold off for a while the designation of St. Joseph
Bay and let's see if we can ,live with 'it. If we can't
we don't want it.


Family Businesses Fading


The day of the family business is in the sunset stage,
it appears. Over the past few years literally thousands
of established and successful family business enterprises
bai'e been sold to conglomerates-giant corporate com-
Tlirles which pick the choice fruit of the business world
when the family is confronted by Uncle Sam.
Actually, it is the' confiscatory taxation imposed -by
the Federal Government which is forcing the successful
family business out of existence. And there is scarcely
a community in the country' which has not suffered from
this probletr. The successful family business builds on
its. community reputation as well as its service to the
commercial community. More often than not a major
consideration is the goodwill established by the founding
family's integrity and fair treatment of customers as well
as employees.
But when the founding father of the family business
gets on in years, Washington casts its shadow. For ex-
ample: let's suppose that a provident businessman builds
a' company worth a million dollars in the course of a
lifetime. At death the estate tax on the business would
be $325,000. His heirs would have to hand up that sum,


customarily in cash, to the tax men. Rarely will a fan
ily, or a small business have that kind of cash available
Successful businessmen keep cash invested, in equipment
or expansion plans. The heirs probably will have to se'
the business to meet the estate taxes.
Unhappily, Uncle Sam, who has never been able i
modern times to manage his own affairs without bucket
of red ink beside the desk, isn't a very good judge o
businesses. He never seems to-take into account what th
founding head of the family business meant to it. Th
tax appraisal is made without, lowering the ,value whe
the boss is gone. I
Accordingly, successful businessmen who have nurse
a family enterprise to profit and fame have had to et
'cape the harsh treatment of heird by selling the family
business.
This is especially of concern to family business suc
as ours-and most businesses in Port St. Joe. While non
are probably worth a million dollars, the fraction of wort
is also met by the fraction of cash on hand, and the ta
bite is equally as destructive. i


'What Is An Aquatic Preserve?


This Partially Explains It


The Internal Im p movement
Fund with Randolph Hodges as
director, has been conducting a
*series of bearings throughout
the State of Florida concerning
the establishment of 26 recom-
-mended aquatic preserves.
One of these aquatic preserves
takes in all of St. Joseph Bay and
the -Gulf side of the Peninsula
to Cape San Bias for five miles
into the Gulf.
An aquatic preserve is intend-
ed to set aside an exceptional
- preserve of coastal water, its un-
derlying bottom and the water
column above for preservation


essentially in its natural or exist-
ing condition by regulating all
activities of man which might
have an effect on the area.
An aquatic preserve is char-
Sacterized as being of one or a
combination of three principal,
interrelated types: Biological, to
preserve or promote certain
forms of animal or plant life or
their supporting habitats; aaes-
thetic, to preserve certain scenic
qualities or amenities; or scien.
tific, to preserve certain fea-
tures, qualities or conditions,,
.which may or may not include
biological and aesthetic, for sci-

Management Criteria
The 1 Board has recommended
as general management criteria
'the following:
t0e No alteration of physical
conditions within an aquatic pre-
serve shall be permitted except:
Minimum dredging and spoiling
for authorized public navigation
projects or other approved activi-
ty designed to enhance the qual-
ity or utility of the preserve it-
self. It is inherent in the concept
of the aquatic preserve that, oth-
er than as contemplated above,
there be no dredging and filling
to create land, no drilling of oil
wells or excavation 'for shell or
minerals and no erection of
structures on stilts or otherwise
unless associated with authoriz-
ed activity, within the' confines
'of a preserve-to the extent
these activities can be lawfully
prevented.
Specifically, there shall be
no bulkhead lines set within an
aquatic preserve. When the boun-
dary of a preserve, is intended to
be the line of mean high water
along a particular shoreline, any
bulkhead line subsequently set
for that shoreline will also be at
the line of mean high water.-
All human activity within
an aquatic preserve shall be sub-
ject to reasonable rules and reg-
ulations promulgated and enforc-
ed by the trustees and/or any
specifically designated managing
agency. Such rules and regula-
tions shall not interfere unduly
with lawful and traditional pub-'
lie uses of the area, such as fish-


I

x


ing (both sports and commer-
cial), hunting, boating, -swim-
ming and the like.
Neither the establishment
nor the management of an aqua- ,
tic preserve shall infringe upon
the lawful and traditional ripar-
ian rights of private property
owners adjacent to a preserve.
In furtherance of these rights,
reasonable 'improvement for in-
gress and egress, mosquito con-
trol, shore protection and simi-
lar purposes may be permitted
byt t trustees and other juris-
dictional agencies after review
and formal concurrence by any
specifically designated manag-
ing agency for the preserve in'
question.
Other uses. of an aquatic
preserve or luman activity with-
in a preserve, although not ori-
ginally contemplated, may be
permitted by the trustees and
other jurisdictional agencies, but
only after a'formal finding of
compatibility made by the truis-
. tees on the advice of any specifi-
cally designated managing agen-
cy for the preserve in question.
Chairman Hodges has said the
committee had recommended
that any lands or water bottoms
to which a \private ownership
might subsequently be proved
be automatically excluded from
a preserve. He added that such
an exclusion should not preclude
the state from trying to negotiate
an agreement with the owner by
which such lands or water bot-
toms again might be included
within the preserve.

SFPAGE. TWO


YOU MUST NOT STINK 'CAUSE YOU'RE DIRTY
It seems as if the scientists are on the side of the young folks.
It appears more so every day. Just recently we ran across an ar.
ticle, and published it here, of a scientific "find" which suspected
that eating spinach and drinking water could prove poisonous to
kids and adults alike. This didn't appear to meet with too much
resistance by ariybody-young or old.
Now science has gone a step farther. A recent issue of "The
University of Utah Review" carries an article lby a professor of
surgery, Dr. Ralph C. Richards, which suspects the good of washing
with water taking a bath, if you please.
Shades of Saturday night! If Professor Richards' theory proves
to be true, sales of Right Guard and Ban and Secret will quadruple
maybe even sextuple or ten-tuple, overnight. People owning stock
in the makers of the' "smell goods" will get rich overnight-
Dr. Richards says that the percentage of 'bacteria removed from
.the body by bathing is "almost insignificant, probably no more
than 7 per cent." '
And then he puts on record his official and professional opinion
that those who scrub and brush themselves probably irritate the
skin enough to wind up with substantially 'more bacteria than
would have been present had the bathtaker never troubled to get
into the tub or s.shower. .
We thought it important to aleit you, since you may want to
`keep this learned publication out of the reach and the prying eyes
of youngsters.
And, too, you can look on that TV commercial about Dial soap
with a suspicious eye now .,it must not be the bacteria that c
makes you stinik. '
*
AFRAID T 6 SPEAK OUT?
'Dr. 'Max Rafferty, one of our favorites, brought to light an
alarming thing in his column of Sunday. Dr. Rafferty was quoting
Dr. John A. Geddes of the University of California, who said:
"Most campuses are devoid of any active anti-CommUnist
group. The opposition and criticism that students should be hear-
ing to counter what the leftists tell them does not' exist. The min-
ority of faculty holding conservative beliefs are generally reluctant
to speak out. They fear for their jobs or the censure of their col-
leagues".
Do you really think 'that it has come to the point where a per-
son may lose his job because he speaks out against radicalism and
as Dr. Geddes put it, "things that leftists tell"?
When one reaches the stage ,of professor at a university or
the head of a university, he is usually given tfie opportunity to
resign rather than be fired for his statements or actions.
It is a sad state of affairs, in our opinion, 'when 'those who
harbor beliefs and. mdes of conduct which has been proven to,
be the proper mode of conduct, are afraid' to'speak out for these,
beliefs. When a minority can successfully throttle the righteous
protest of the majority-even the leaders-it is time for some-
one else to take over; give assurances that house' who speak for
right and those who oppose anarchism wilt be protected' in their
position. Better yet, it is time for those in ultimate- authority toA
set their foot down and strictly prohibit-.not the freedom of'speech-'%
and ideas--but the deliberate erosion of law and order .. and,
decency.

became operational last 'week.
The first electronic sensor spe-
cifically designed to detect and
track objects in space, the new
radar provides capability for ra-
pid warning of missile attack
aimed at the southern United

16cation of earth-orbiting objects
so that astronauts and other
space vehicles can be positioned
to avoid them.
The complex computerized in-
stallation is operated by Lieuten-
ant Lovett's unit, &he 20th. Sur- ,
veillance Squadron. It is the most
advanced facility in the world-
'wide network of electronic and
optical space surveillance sensors
known as USAF SPACETRACK
and the only one operated and
maintained entirely by military
personnel. Other sensors are
staffed primarily with civilian
contractor technicians.
he new sensor is called "su-
per 1adar" because it performs
"the functions' of many types of
radar simultaneously with no
moveable antennas. It employs

Terry Hinote Cited for
'Bravery in Ecuador
Terry Hinote, formerly of Port
St. Joe and now residing in Guaya-
quil Ecuador, was presented with
the American Society of Guaya-
quil's first "Community Service
Award" for his actions which sav-
ed the life of a child on Christmas
day.
According to the citation, Hinote
and his wife were relaxing in their
living room when they heard a
scream outside.
Whei Hinote hurried outside he
was informed by his daughter Leisa
that a car had backed upon the
body of 2-year-old Andrea Kubes.
The, ear was still resting on the
child's leg. A neighbor had beat
Hinote to the car and was getting
in to drive the car off the child.
Hinote noted, quickly, that
should the car go forward it run
over the child's body; if it went
backward it would run over her
head.
The neighbor failed to hear Hi-
note's cry to stop, so he managed,
somehow, to pick up the corner of
the car as it started moving, sav-
ing the child from being crushed.

Dear Friends:
Overheard from catwalk to office at Boyles:" "This
is our favorite Store, we come here every,week" .. Two
or three ladies talking while shopping for dresses. Just
one of the small incidents that prompted us to first write
this Tattle on the subject; "The Romance of Retailing",
The fact is itfstretched out too longi'and was chucked"
in .the waste basket.
' Over 30 years ago we read a, book titled: "The Ro-
mance of Industry" (the setting was'Kingsport, Tenn.)
Maybe one of these fine days we'll get around to attempt-
ing a book on this idea applied to retailing with the setting
in Port St. Joe, Fla., a good place, to~work and live!
This& reminds us of the story about a little dog named
"Booze". A mountaineer found Booze in his cabbage patch
digging a hole. He proceeded to cut the.little dog's t4il off.
The man's wife came out and put Booze's tail back yvith
tape and bandage. Later the wife was put in jail! Why?
Simply for retailing Booze!
No comment on how true the story but the ollo dng
one is a fact: Something over 50 years ago. my oldest .ro-
ther Carlyle was given a pair of young steers to break to
the yoke. He named them Dick and Tom. Dick was real
stubborn and unruly. Carlyle lost his temper and (of, all
things) bit a hole thru one of Dick's ears. IHe put his arm
around Dick's neck and wailed: "Poor Dick, I didn't mean
to hurt you so much". Things went quite well afterwards.

Sometimes I wonder if we wouldrespohd -t our fel-
low man with this kind of repentance. Again, I wonder
how we reconcile the belief that we love God and not have
a degree of harmony andfellowship with our fellowman.
Just how much do we nurse disdain, dislike and indiffer-
ence? It is any wonder that all over this world humans
are fighting, bleeding and dying today? The consuming
and death-dealing cancer. of resentment, hate, vengence
and greed occupies the headlines of today's news. In fact
it appears to be a well organized venture in our own coun-
try as well as in other lands of this world.
Now, all at once we get on a serious and deep subject.
As a matter of fact, we're up to our neck right now! 'We'll
take off before our head goes under. Maybe you'll say:
"Well, what's to be done about it"? Frankly, we 'don't
know. As for me and my house, we'll do our best to keep
on loving, believing and serving our fellow man in our small
ways. We'll look for pleasure, satisfaction and romance in
our work every day. We'll hope that "All things will work
together for good" in the end. "Good morning Mrs. A.,
bless your heart for shopping Boyles, The Store of Sun-
shine Values". S'long .. RGB.
P.S.-Boyles Men and Boy's Store (2nd floor) must
have that "something" .Head man, Robert Holcomb
decided he needed to drink more water and shows up
with his own gallon thermos jug "While I do get
thirsty, there's so much going on up here, I clean forget
to drink my water". Come on up and let's have a drink
of Robert's ice cold water! Or, when you buy some-
thing from Robert, gently remind him to drink more wa-
ter!

80 Percent of Cycle Accidents Result
In Injury or Death to Riders Says FHP


TALLAHASSEE Urging mo-
torcyclists to wear ,,protective
helmets and goggles, the Florida
Highway Patrol this week said
that 80 percent of all motorcycle
accidents result, in injury or
death to the riders.
Colonel H. N. Kirkman, Direc-
tor of the Department of Pubtic
Safety said, "Figures tabolated
from accident reports of the first


and statements from police offi-
cers and cyclists relating cases
in which the helmet saved a life
or prevented severe injuries.


nine months of 1968 show that
80 percent of accidents which in-
volve motorcycles or motorbikes
result in injury or death to the
operators or passengers."
According to Kirkman. this fig-
ure represents a slight reduction
in the percentage of injury-death
accidents since the law requ ring
cyclists to wear helmet and gog-
gles became effective.

What is conservation?
Strictly it means "keeping in a
safe place" and yet another defin-
ition has it-that "conservation is
the safe and wise use of all our
natural resources."
Nature--for whatever else the
word ,implies-means air, water,
soil, plants and forests, minerals
and animal life.
The parts are interlocking. But
no, single one of those parts can
be named as key to all others.
There are people who work with
each. Perhaps the greatest tribute
which can be made to those who
study nature and its elements is
that their efforts have made it pos-
sible to note a new face of nature
emerging. It has come to be recog-
nized as a part of that Nature as
surely as air, water, soil, wildlife
and the others. It is conservation.
So important is consei-vation-
the. last of nature's components to
be seen and identified-it may well
be termed the keystone to all the
others. (Strange thing: Nature her-
self was busily engaged in self-
practice of conservation all along.)
For quite apart from selecting


Forest


N..otes

County Forester

one "without which the others
could not exist," we have in con-
servation an element' "without
which the others, practically speak-
ing, would cease to exist."
Happy, then,- is the naturalist
whose work has to do with con-
servation. Conservation is not a
matter of relegating some unre-
fined resource of nature to a per-
petual showcase. Conservation is
a craft rocked between the two
channels of (1) multiplied use, and
(2) protection.
Conservation is the use of one
element of nature in such a way
that all other elements are retain-
ed, if not strengthened or increas-
ed.
For example: It is difficult if not
impossible to think about enduring
supplies of fresh, pure water with-
out a protected watershed. This is
where forestry comes in. Never sell
a tree short, it is a marvelous de-
vice for keeping adequate supplies
of good water.
But trees don't stop there. Trees
are the secret to other priceless
things of Nature.

Frye said, "Since there was a
valid biological reason for an ear-
lier season in, South Florida, and
none for a later season, the earlier
season was adopted".
"In setting this season the Com-


PATE'S


mission recognized ,the fact that
from a biological standpoint, the
best season would be one.that op-
ened early in extreme South Flor-
ida-later in Central Florida-and
still later in Northwest Florida,
but felt that at present this would
not be acceptable to the sports-
men," Frye stated.
"We have found," Frye pointed
out, "that sportsmen in general, are
concerned about the wildlife in
their particular hunting areas,
and are reluctant to have their par-
ticular areas open when other, ad-
joining areas are not also open.
There is a fear that hunters from
other areas will exert excessive
pressure on the wildlife in the
area in which they are particularly
interested".
"This concern about different-


seasons does not always hold true,"
Frye said, "for example, there has
been for several years, a difference
in opening and closing dates be-
tween Northwest Florida and the
remainder of the state with gener-
ally good acceptance by the sports-
men".
The Commission Director said,
*The ideal situation would be a
hunting season that opened state-
wide for all species at the same
time. Unfortunately, in a state as
large and diversified as Florida,
this cannot be if we are to manage
our wildlife resources according to
the biology of the game, and the
best interest of the sportsman".

for. public consumption...the same year Jonas Salk
led the way for the dramatic brea~hrough in polio con-
trol. In .1962, enzymes were introduced to accelerate
tissue repair and reduce inflammation. Going back
a little further we find that penicillin... which has
proved so necessary to Ufe... has been In use just 19

Small Counties 'Hurt
At Association Meet

The Gulf County Commission, .,
which was scheduled to meet
Tuesday night, postponed its
meeting until tonight. The Com-
missioners were attending the
State Association of County Comn-
missioners meeting Tuesday.
County Commission chairman,
Leo Kennedy told The Star yes-
.terday that as a result of the
State meeting, the association
voted to re-apportion its voting
power among its several mem-
bers.
"This means that the Associa-
tion will now have the power in
the big county vote to ask the
Legislature for consolidating the
State into larger anid fewer
counties". Kennedy said the fig-
ure of 20 counties was used.
"The State Association has- a
strong lobbying power with the
Legislature," Kennedy said, "inid
I'm afraid if they endorse fewer
counties, it will pass."
