The Port St. Joe City Commis- sion voted Tuesday night to pro- ceed with preliminary plans for construction of a new secondary sewage disposal plant in the City. Plans for the new system call for a plant which will take care of waste productsifrom the city's industry as well ,as sewage from the city's collection system. The new system, being plan- ned at the directip.n o the S.tqte and Federal Air a t rW P 14Pu- tion Control, boo ill e de- signed in such I i er t hat both the City a n in W tr ill fully comply wih:.anu dtpoliflion laws and requ i r I The City has a ite to 9o ow this route sind i *.,c d I. cme from the Stat t i Depart- ment stating t !biE City's old disposal plant is not adequate to meet.. new specifications. The questions to be answered were; if such a project could be done and how would it be accepted by State and Federal boards. About six months ago, Com- missioner Bob Fox, who is in charge of the Water and Sewer departments, asked Commission- er Tom Coldewey to approach St. Joe Paper Company :about engineering;. the feasibility of such a system while he dealt in- to the matter of acceptability. Some time ba4k, both the' State Board off Health !and. Federal Pollution people stated to Fox they were highly, favorable of such ii, system.

Wes Thompson Comes Here As Florida Power Manager Wesley W. Thompson, Jr., has been named District Manager for Florida Power Corporation at Port St. Joe. The appointment was announced by J. F. Roesel, Northern div ion manager for the utility. Thompson succeeds Robert E. Brunner who has ac- cepted a position in the St. Pet- ersburg service area. The new manager has as much enthusiasm for this area as has many an old timer. According to Thompson, he and his wife had hoped to move, someday, to this part of Florida, and were "de- lighted" when the promotion and transfer was announced. Last year, the former St. Pet- ersburg-based FPC e n g i n eer taught a company course for Port St. Joe and Apalachicola em- ployees. He "fell in love with this country" and subsequently spent his vacation camping with his family in T. H. Stone State Park. He said that the company has predicted exciting growth and progress for its entire service area, and that this appointment I has put him into the best part of it. He also stated that much of the $400 million to be spent for new construction by FPC during the next five years will benefi- cially affect Port St. Joe. For example, Wes announced that (Continued On Page 10) He will address thei lb, one ,,of T39 in his district, AP4 will confer with Wesley R. 'famsey, president of the local 'Rotary Club, and with other cl6b offi-- cials to obtain information on the group's plans for its service activities and to offef sugges- tions on Rotary administrative matters. Mr. White is one of 298 Rotary governors throughout tle world who are serving as representa- tives of Rotary International in districts composed of ,member clubs. Each district leader is re- sponsible for supervising the clubs in his area. Rotary, an in- ternational men's service organi- zation, has more than 654,500 members in some 13,752 clubs in 146 countries. A member and past president of the Rotary Club of St. Augus- tine, he was elected, to office at the Rotary convention in Hono- lulu, Hawaii, in May 1969 and will serve until June 30, 1970.

Construction Company Wins Area Contract Ward Ridge Construction Com- pany, of Port St. Joe was award- ed a contract last week by the State Department of Transporta- tion for construction of 11.488 miles of road construction in Franklin County. Ward Ridge Construction will construct the road on St. George Island and at St. George Islafid Park. The company's low bid was for $409,985. The project is scheduled to be completed by July 1970. two percent of the cost of the system, or an estimated $60,000. A plant to serve the city alone was estimated to cost about $300,- 000. The proposed ,system would ' handle about 60 million gallons of effluent per day, :or, about! 'twice the present projected load. This would allow plenty of room for growth without enlargement of the system. . During the next few weeks the Board of Commissioners will be involved with the hiring, of an engineering firm to draw up pre, ,liminary plans for presentation to the State Board of Health for approval.

Mr. and Mrs. John Porter be- came the eighth and ninth ac- cident victims on Gulf County highways this- year. Mrs. Linda Porter, age 17, of Port St. Joe, was killed instantly in an early morning-wreck West of Wewahitchka on State Road 22. Her husband, Joe Porter, 28, died in a Panama City hospital early Monday from injuries suf- fered in the same accident. According to the Florida High- way Patrol, the Porters and James Estridge, 22,' brother of Mrs. Porter were all passengers in the small foreign car when it hit a culvert about! five miles West of Wewahitchla. Estridge With Gulf County Schools open for only two days, and pupils still 1 registering, reports of pupil population are still sketchy and incomplete. No figures at all are available for Wewahitchka High School, which doesn't open its new year until today. Preliminary reports for the four Port St. Joe area schools show a growth of 111 students, thus far, over last year's average daily attendance. Reports yesterday at noon from the office of Supervisor William Linton showed that 2,169 had enrolled in Port St. Joe and was the driver of the automobile. He is also suffering from serious injuries and is still confined in a Panama City hospital. The accident occurred at about 2:45 a.m. Sunday. Funeral services for Mr. and Mrs. Porter will be held at 3:00 p.m. this afternoon from the Comforter Funeral Home Chapel here in Port St. Joe. The double funeral, will be conducted by the Rev. Father William A. Crowe. Interment will be in Holly Hill Cemetery. Mrs. Porter is survived by her father, U. V.

THIRTY-SECOND YEAR I N Two Killed On Gulf Highways During Labor Day Week End Area Schools Report Increase of 111 Pupils A fI iiCARr 9 numiDEn J. ) I: It's been right amusing reading for the last week or so about the bill that slipped through the last session of the Legislature granting a tax free status to the savings and loan people. "A mistake" said some; "the language was vague", said others. The clincher of the' whole deal was the most widely publicized excuse, "I didn't know what the bill said." This last excuse was probably more to being correct than any of them. This happens to a lot of bills that make their way through the, valley of the lawmakers, but few will. admit it. Probably what made this bill so well publicized was the fact that it will cost the state so much money. Some estimates, are that the boo-boo will put the state's already precarious budget into the red. It seems lately that those who said they "didn't know what was in the bill" have had some of the same soul- searching that Teddy Kennedy had of late and have de- qided to change their story. One after another Legis- An oddity has happened right here in our county as a result of the decision by the Gulf County Commission to proceed with the work of widening and re-paving the road which leads from State Road 30-A (old U. S. 98) to where it joins on to the St. Joseph Peninsula State Park' road near the Coast Guard Station at Cape San Blas. The oddity is that nobody claims ownership of the road. - The county, in realizing that the road was badly in need of maintenance immediately as well as the exten- sive and overhauling and improvements being planned by the county, decided to call for the State to repair the road to make it safe for travel while the' paper work was pro- ceeding for the overhaul job. The state replied that they didn't have the road on their books, neither as a primary nor a secondary road. This was strange, as virtually every paved road outside i of one of the county's corporate municipalities is included S> .. ..

As one commentator put it, "You didn't have su as this with the 'Pork Chop Gang' ". It just appears that the various Legislators have be so busy reorganizing the state government into a hodj podge of bureaus and departments under a single he that they have forgotten the State of Florida and its ' fairs need tending to.

I feel that with my experience in business and my experience as a City Commissioner, I am fully able to carry on the functions of the City of Port St. Joe in a manner that will best serve the intereAt and welfare of everyone. their $2.4 Billion Collected By State and Cities All collections of monies by the state and all the local governments in Florida reached $2.4 billion last year, 46 per cent more than five years ago, the Florida State Cham- ber of Commerce reported in its Weekly Business Review released yesterday. iat "Taxes, charges and licenses col- ry- elected by the State of Florida, by r all the counties, districts and cities ter within the state, are included in fi- this sum," Ronald S. Spencer Jr., ng chamber manager stated. This a- mounts to $384 for every Floridian, man, woman and child. lch Comparisons, between F 1o r i d a and other states are possible only when state and local taxes are com- !en bined especially because of the ge- imposition of taxes at different ad levels in different states. af-^. "Florida's per capital state-local tax stands 32nd among the fifty states," Spencer said. "This attrae- tively low rankAs some consolation. ng In addition.' Florida's per capital is its presently increasing at a slightly nd slower rate \than the average for the balance of the nation." Spencer at pointed out, however, that neither 'borrowings nor federal grants were included in these state-local figures, all of which are based on a special U. S. Department of Commerce study. The $2.4 billion total in Florida was made up of $707.9 million in property taxes, up 47 per cent in five years; $1.1 billion in sales and his other taxes, up 36 per cent; and, $584.1 million in charges, licenses and the like, up 62 per cent. These iad -tabulations cover .the fiscal year or- 1967-1968 and include only a small portion of sales tax collections at' the increased rate. set ,ht Carolyn Carr, Sonia Cooper ng Visit Forbidden' Caverns >lic Miss Carolyn Carr and Miss Sonia Cooper of Atlanta, Georgia recently if visited Forbidden Caverns, near the Great Smoky Mountains, to g, view the many'natural formations aid in the cave. Forbidden Caverns, a short drive from Gatlinburg and Sevierville, of Tenn., was opened last year after two years of excavating and con- struction work, in the initial sea- son, over 52,000 visitors saw the caverns. It seemed to us at the meeting last Tuesday night concern- ing the Oak Grove Water District and its possibilities of getting a system a a much lower rate than the City of Port St. Joe offered, that some of the people thought the City was trying to charge too much for the desired service. This isn't so, and we'd like to explain why., First, the cost of the system contemplated by the City was practically the same as the cost quoted Tuesday night for wells, treatment plant and sewage system. The whole difference was that the City needed its money back, in 10 years. The proposition offered by engineer Max W. Kilbourn was based on the Federal Government giving Oak Grove a gift of half the installation and system cost and .amortizing the other half over a 40 year period. This makes a big difference in the monthly cost to customer. As it is, the people of Oak Giove will pay a higher water bill (based on figures presented Tuesday night) than do the people of Port St. Joe. Figures Tuesday night showed that Oak Grove would, start with a minimum bill of $3.00 for 2,000 gallons of water and graduate down to 50c per thousand gallons. 'The City of Port St. Joe water customers pay $4.00 for the first 3,000 gallons and the rate graduates down to 25c per thousand. - 'We hope Oak Grove gets the water and sewer service. They need it and' it would be to our .advantage from a health stand- point for them to have it, We hope they don't go in over their head to get it, however, and wind up with an operation that j q burden financially and mechanically to operate. In round figures, water and sewage treatment service would cost '.- the average home-owner of Oak Grove $10.00 per month (baseit' on figures presented last Tuesday night). An estimated 150 cus- tomers were thought to be willing and anxious to have the ser- vice. This means a gross income, of $1,500 a month for the sys- te'n. The only question we have ,is, whether that $1,500 a month can pay the one or two men that will be needed to operate the system, buy the necessary chemicals, pay the electric bill, buy and maintain a vehicle for service.and still make payments on the esti- mated $125,000.00 loan. It will be cutting it close and .won't leave much for the inevitable repairs that come from things mechanical. The system is 'so engineered that it can be tied into the City of Port St. Joe or any other new city in the Oak Grove area that may spring up and become a new town in the county. It' would be a pity to have a water and sewage system in Oak Grove, then in a few years maybe they would desire to join another community and have a system such that would have to be abandoned. This is good thinking. We say again, we hope the citizens of Oak Grove can get these facilities, but we hope that the system will be such that it will be self-sustaining and not prove a burden to the people of Oak Grove or to the county. I saw Police Chief "Buck" Griffin out and about last week on his 'crutches and in his police uniform. It's nice to see you out again, Buck, and hope you continue to progress as well as you have. Buck doesn't have a chance to get tired though, because he can't take a half dozen steps before someone stops him to inquire. ' as to his health and pass the time of day. Plenty of time to rest along the way. 4 Nobody Clai'm Road' Vote For and Re-elect As in the past, I will keep myself readily available to assist anl, :at convenience, concerning affairs of the City of Port St. Joe. +# - - __ s- i..
