Freeman stressed that today's meeting with FHA is a last ditch effort as the loan must be clos- .ed by June 30 of this year or it will be' lost forever. Freeman said that all contracts for the facility had been signed with the exception of the con- tract for the club house which was to be signed yesterday. He went on to say that pro- vided all goes well today, work /should get underway on the fa- cility in a short time in order to be able to plant grass on the 'golf course part of the country club nekt spring. During the meeting, the Gulf County Commission delivered a resolution, passed only minutes before, pledging to build and maintain an access road 'to the facility. This was one of the la- ter requirements of FHA. In other business, the mem- bership officially rescinded their request for a $325,000 16an made in February of 1969 and request- ed the $265,000 the FHA has said it will lehd. These were also requests of the FHA. Tapper Will Build George G. Tapper took the speaker's stand and said that the country club has had five bids to construct the course, all too high. This situation has al- lowed the club to negotiate for construction, 'and they have ask- ed Tapper to do the job. Tap- per went on to say, "I didn't ask for the job, but I was asked to do it.

Development Corporation, gave the County Commission a few more facts Tuesday night, con- cerning a request by the com- pany for the county to abandon and close a portion of the Sauls Creek Road for a distance of about two miles back from the Jackson River. About half of this distance has never been built with the other half in rough con- dition. ' Gaskin pointed out that his company would provide a boat landing and recreation area on / Sauls Creek if their request was granted. The County had no hopes of providing such a facili- ty themselves, since they didn't have the proper right of way. Gaskin pointed out that the company was offering the county and its citizens something in the trade-something they couldn't get any other way. The Board'has set a hearing to consider the request on Fri- day, July 23 at 7:30 p.m. in the Commissioners meeting room at the Courthouse.

What Tapper was saying was that the St. Joseph Country Club golf course cannot be built for what he has agreed to do the job for and make any money qt it. Tapper was given a unanimous vote of appreciation for his part in seeing that the country club becomes a reality. The club complex will consist of an 18-hole golf course, com- pletely irrigated from one end to the other, a swimming pool, tennis courts, playground and a club house.

Watts, Sr., Dies Suddenly Tuesday; Funeral Services Today p a I .. , PAGE TWO eA EDITORIALS... Casting Covetous Eye Reading the papers the other day, we see where the U. S; Government is casting a covetous eye at Europe's Value Added Tax, which is, in effect, a sales tax. The Aax is applied to every financial transaction, from pur- chase of raw material, to selling the worn out goods to the junk man, bringing in a large sum of money for the European states to finance thier budgets. But the. value added tax would encroach upon the state's present practice of levying sales taxes. The stories -estimate that a "value added tax in the United States would bring in $50 billion a year and could replace the income tax or some other major tax. You and I know that there isd no such definition in the books as "replacing" taxes. While on the subject of taxes, it's interesting to look at the. national budget and realize that it is one third of the gross national product of the nation. That means that one out of three of our dollars spent, is a U. S. tax dollar. When we look further and consider the tax money paid to states, counties and cities, we would probably arrive at about half of the gross national product; or, one half of the money we earn being chewed up in taxes. We all know that taxes' are necessary. They pay for the roads we ride on; the law enforcement agencies; fire protection; our nation's armed forces; various social aids and federal projects too big for one community, county or state-to tackle. The only thing that bothers us is that we owe that other half of our gross national product in the national debt; so what are we buying meat and bread, homes and autos, furniture and clothing with? 7 -Two attempts in the Senate this past week to cut off funds for the Vietnam war by December this year or July of next year, met the defeat they deserved. Granted, maybe we shouldn't be in Vietnam, but the fact is we are. If we had a son in Vietnam, and someone like Senator George McGovern or Senator Mark Hatfield or even (shame) Florida's Senator Lawton Chiles who backed the July cut-off, wanted to cut off his support, we would feel considerably hard toward these fellows for undermin- ing their postiion and adding to their danger. Supposedly secret papers "liberated" from the Penta- gon by New York Times sources sort of gave the Demo- cratic regimes. of the past few years a black eye on the conduct of the Vietnam war, and here these tried and true Democratic doves are trying to move heaven and earth to put Prqsident Nixon in a box on the war question. The North Vietnamese say they will "begin to talk" about releasing our prisoners of war when we pull out of Vietnam. President Nixon says we are not going without' them, and we back his stand in this respect. We hate to think that Senators McGovern, Bayh, Hatfield, Kennedy and others are taking their positions on Vietnam merely for the votes and support they will receive for their position. We hope no American-much less our leaders--could be that greedy for power. We hope their motives are governed by strong convictions, even though we fail to see how they can be. Protect Our Fishermen That Brazilian boat captain who supposedly ,shot at American shrimp boats for being inside Brazil's newly- - claimed 200 mile zone now says he didn't do it. The American's claim he did. We think the Brazilian's claim proves one thing; he didn't fire with the consent and approval of his govern- ment. It appears to us that he has been contacted by his superiors and he is now trying to back out of his actions. We would hate to think that Brazil is joining Chile in such asanine actions. Brazil has always been a good friend of the United States.

This comes ,ip when something goes wrong but never when something goes right. People of yester-year are people of an-older age than young people of today. They are the young people of yesterday. They are those people who fol- lowed in about the same steps as the young people of today are now following. They had to go through certain steps in learn- ing and in maturing just as young people of today have to do. They have to become adults... but in due time, of course. Jealousy- gets one nowhere. Yes ,that is the only thing wrong. When they say "It's the young- er generation" they are saying THE STAR-.

T""hh" IEEE pot shots at our boats. ., Another thing we think should be thrashed out once and for all, is this rising tendency to claim hundreds of miles of ocean as private property. If the United Na- tions were worth its salt, 'they would resolve this claim of grabbing miles and miles of ocean once and for all. 'In the meantime, with no world-wide organization strong enough to curb such irresponsible actions, we think the United States should go on record telling- other na- tions to let our boats alone and then back up their procla- mation. In the meantime, fishing boats should be advised of what is reasonable and prudent action on their part so they can be legally backed up by our government. more than they mean to say and more than they realize they are saying. Yod see, today young people are moving out towards God. They are bringing Christ into their lives and the older generation cannot stand it. 'They want to down the young people simply because they were not in the same steps back in the time of their younger years. Even though they still don't seem to be living with Christ to- day any more 'than they were then. No, I wasn't there to see them living their lives as young people, but I am here today. I cannot staxid to see a life that is being lived for God go down the drain. It is too much of a good thing for that. The young peo- ple of today are only trying to place God in their lives. But even those who are not have the best of their years in life in their grasp NOW. All I ask is that the older gen- eration not down the younger generation. True too, some of them don't want to be helped in a personal way. Or is it that they don't want to ask for help? But there still iq a way to help them. Help them by not downing them, and by looking at them with a peaceful eye. When you see them give a "peace sign", why not give them one in exchange? After all, a world of peace is in 'tomorrows leaders and tomor- rows leaders come from today young people with dhrist in their life. And that is exactly what the young people of today are trying to do. In their own way they want to put Christ in their life and help you put it in yours. Hey man, why not help them and let them do their thing? Be in Church this and every Sunday to bring out Christ in your life! Signed A Concerned Young American Harold Bramton Too Late To Classify By Russell Kay One of the secrets in your old age is to keep interested and oc- cupied. I retired a few years ago, except for writing this column once a week for the Florida News Service. For years I had been paying a professional gardener from $5 to $8 a week to mow the lawn, tend the flowers and trim the shrubbery. With time on my .hands I decided to do my own 'gardening and I can recommend it if you fear boredom on retire- ment. Since Mama loves roses I de- cided to develop a rose garden. The bugs, fungus and other un- derworld characters laughed their heads off. They knew that nobody below the rank of a four star general could grow roses Florida's Parks Increase Fees TALLAHASSEE Camping fees at Florida's state parks will be increased from $2.50 to $3.60 (plus tax) per day effective July 1, Ran- dolph Hodges, executive director of the Department of Natural Re- sources, announced today. Hodges said the increase in rates is necessary in order for the parks to have sufficient funds for oper- ating expenses. The director said all requests for camping reservations received before June 30 for camping dates after July 1 will be confirmed at the old rate of $2.50 (plus tax) per day. He said the 'Family Camping Per- mit allowing Florida residents to camp in state parks will be honor- ed for the remainder of 1971. Af- ter the first of the year, however, he said it probably will be in- creased from $35.00 (plus tax) to $50.00 (plus tax). Electricity fees will remain 50 cents per day. Sgt.

A rose bush I have learned is more demanding than a sel- fish woman and they can drive you toi distraction if you take them seriously. I invested about $50 in Nelson's Florida stock. They were beautiful bushes in full bloom but when I transplant- ed them they became just bush- es. They developed black spots,' die back, shrivel and what. have you and the more I sprayed, fer- tilized and cultivated the worse they got. I wrote the State Department of Agriculture and read just a- bout every bodk in the library on the subject of rose culture. All I learned that they, required a lot of attention and were hard to grow. But I was persistent, I was de- termined that no lousy rose could set me back on my ear. I fertilized, cultivated, sprayed and prayed and finally my roses let themselves go and began to bloom like mad. Last week I was able to pre- sent Mama with a fresh new rose every half hour from 7 a.m. until 6 p.m. and I still have a half dozen more in bloom ieady to pluck. My experience has taught me a lot about human nature as well as old Mama Nature herself. If you want to succeed you gotta keep trying and if you work long enough and hard enough you will be rewarded beyond your fondest expectations. Along with the roses I went in for annuals, snapdragons, meri- golds, zinnias, petunias and all the rest. Some I grew from seed, others from plants but they all did their stuff when I assured them they were respected and loved and would be well cared for. I made the bugs miserable for I sprayed like made and culti- vated like crazy and watered un- til my bill darn near broke me but boy have I got flowers. You really ought to see them and I can tell you I go to bed with a smile on my face because I know that in the morning I can look out of my bedroom window and see a grand and glorious burst of color within my view. But you have got to know and understand them, love them and care for them and if you do they will re- spond and give you more than you ever expected. There is a lot to be learned from a garden and it is unfor- tunate so few of us have sought its secrets. Etaoin Shrdlu by WESLEY R. RAMSEY We received a clipping in the mail the other day des- cribing a "sorry editor" as one who is taken by the "Mr. Bigs" of the community; one who is in favor of what every- one favors-schools, churches, libraries, etc.-but with never a critical word toward these paragons of virtue; one who timidly opposes increasing taxes; and one who fills his editorial page with clipsheet material. We gathered that the description was the sender's opinion of us. Of course the epistle was unsigned, which, we know from experience, can make one extremely brave if he knows the source of his utterances will never be found out. You could find yourself a better editor. Old poison pen didn't have to write to tell us that. But one thing for sure, we work long, hard hours each week that rolls around trying to properly report the,news; which is more than one could probably say about our correspondent. Many of the charges of our antagonist don't bother us. We expect criticism, even though we know we are our own man and have the scars to prove it. We did re- sent the implication- that we are not the author of our editorials. We spend at least two hours every Saturday afternoon putting our editorials together; while old poison pen is off on the river enjoying a fishing trip. We never copy an editorial unless we give credit to the paper from -which it came. We, like all newspapers, get clipsheets of suggested editorials. Occasionally, we will use one we consider especially good; but doesn't that make us respon- sible for its content? Most of the time when we use a clipsheet editorial, we re-write it to express our own views about the subject. We'll tell our buddy like we tell everyone else who questions our philosophies or wants us to labor a point for them: "You buy this newspaper from me and you can put in it just what you want". -But, first, you must practice signing your name to your' critical epistles, be- cause when you are the editor, you must sign your name. You must be able to back up what you say with fact and proof, rather than rely on things being as you think they are or wish they were. There's a big difference, and any editor who is worth his salt knows it or he doesn't remain an editor very long. * .We have known for a long time that two is twins; three is triplets; four is quadruplets; five is quintuplets and six is sextuplets. But we didn't know what nine was ... until this week when an Austrialian obliged us by having nine little babies and having them tagged "nonup- lets". Now, we have another question; how many does it have to be to be labeled a "covey"? *0 ' A little girl was asking her mother about marriage the other day when the her: "You had better ask your father", made a better marriage than I did." some questions mother advised she said.
