Setback

Proposed setback lines on the Gulf of
Mexico shoreline in Gulf County by the State
Department of Natural Resources are no
more popular than they were earlier in the
year, if the feeling of property owners at the
most recent hearing on the matter is any
indication.
Last Wednesday, the Department held
its second and last public hearing in the Gulf
County Courthouse and still met with resist-
ance from the property owners. This time,
however, the property owners had figures to
back up their claims that the setback line as
outlined by 'the State is not needed in Gulf
County.
George Tapper, representing Cape San
Blas Shores on St. Joseph Peninsula pointed
out that deeds to the property, which has
been subdivided, requires setback of 125 feet
from the high water mark which is consid-
erably inland from the first line of dunes
which the proposed setback line has been
designed to protect. Tapper pointed out


Lines Still


that no construction is allowed on less than
13 feet of elevation. "We are not interested
in having houses built and then have them
fall in the water", he said.
Cecil G. Costin, representing several
property owners involved in the move said
he would present testimony from experts
within three weeks to substantiate their
claims that the setback line is too strict to
accomplish the purpose of protecting pro-
perty and the beaches.,
Jack Pierce, attorney for the DNR, who
was conducting the hearings said he would
delay his report to the Department until
Costin's experts could present their argu-
ments.
Fred Kent, Jr., another property owner
asked if a study had been made to
determine if these are indeed endangered
lands.
Pierce replied, "t',hat's what these
hearings are for."
James McNeill, a large land owner in


Not


the Indian Pass area, presented maps and
engineers reports stating that rather than
having an erosion problem in this area, the
beaches were actually building up and
needed no setback lines beyond the ones
already established for years-to protect the
beach.
Bill Carlton, Chief of the Variances
Department of the Department of Natural
Resources told the audience present that the
setback lines had been proposed because in
many areas of Florida developers had bull-
dozed dunes down, constructed buildings
right at the water's edge and created havoc
with much of Florida's shoreline. He said,
"Over 300 miles of beaches in Florida don't
exist any longer because of improper
restrictions on building along the shoreline."
Carlton pointed out that many counties
in Florida, Gulf included, didn't have
adequate zoning laws to protect the beaches
and showed no inclination to come up with
such laws. "This is what prompted our
action", he said.


Popular

Several people in the audience favored
the proposed setback lines. Herman Jones of
St. Joe Beach spoke for this group and
presented a petition bearing 285 names
favoring the move.
Jones gave three reasons for approval of
the lines. He stated the dune line was
needed to give protection from storms;
.septic tanks were being built too near the
Gulf and causing pollution and "We'd rather
look at sea oats and sand dunes thanbeach
shacks and condominiums."
L. L. Lanier rebutted this testimony
with the observation, "If those who favor
lines owned the property involved, would
they feel the same way?"
Pierce told those present he would
probably have his report ready about three
weeks after hearing from the experts to be
presented by Costin. He said at that time,
the Cabinet would meet to act and local
property owners would be notified of the
date in order to be present to offer any last
minute objections or approval.

Port St. Joe Area Due


Considerable Paving


A new five-year road
paving plan to be submit-
ted to the Department of
Transportation in a meet-
ing the last of this month
indicates that Port St. Joe
will in all likelihood re-
ceive seven of a possible
eight paving jobs which
will be done in the fiscal
year beginning July 1.
The number of roads
paved,: of course, is de-
termined by the amount of
money available in the
secondary program.
At a recent meeting with
the County Commission,
D.QT. repye.sentative
Charles Dunn said Gulf
would probably get their
first eight projects done in
the coming year.
First in priority is the
extention of Highway 386
from Highway 71 to the
Chipola River. Highway
381 is the Overstreet High-


way and it is to be extend-
ed through the Land Sub-
division in the North end
of the County to the River
to accommodate a large
number of homes.
The remaining seven
projects are in Port St.
Joe and are listed here in
order of priority.
Resurface Westcott Cir-


from Hodrick Street to
Main Street.
Those paving projects
not completed in this
year's budget will be car-
ried over to top priority
for next year.

were added to the five
year paving plan, includ-

16. Forty young handicapped
citizens will compete this
year on the athletic field
behind the Port St. Joe High.
School, beginning at 9 a.m.
E.D.T.
The athletes will compete
in games revolving around
track and field. Participants
will compete in the 50 yard
dash, 220 yard dash, 440 yard
run, boys and girls 440 relay,


standing broad jump, softball
throw and high jump. Other
events will be tug-o-war and
bowling.
No matter what degree,of
disability or level of skill,
there is a place for every
mentally retarded child in
the Special Olympics Games.
"Everybody has a chance
to win," said Coach William
Lane, the 1974 Games Direc-

One of the reasons Port St. Joe High School's baseball
team sports a 8-1 record this season is this six-man
pitching staff.
There are pitchers in the Baseball Hall of Fame in
Cooperstown, N.Y. who have worse earned run averages in
their best year than this entire squad has compiled so far
this season. The staff has allowed only two earned runs in
the nine games played.
The "wildest" pitcher on the staff is Mark Wimberly

Mrs. Bill Lyles, the Gulf
County Special Olympics co-
ordinator, reported that last
year 27 winners went to the
regional games in Tallahas-
see, and 11 of these athletes
were eligible for the State
Special Olympics held in
Gainesville. Barney Bullock
was a gold medal winner in
the 16-18 year old standing
broad jump, and Willie B.
McCloud proudly .brought
home a bronze medal for the


8-9 year old standing broad
jump. Willie B. will be back
again trying for a gold
medal.
Thanks to the cooperation
of Wayne Smith, the owner
and manager of the St. Joe
Bowling Lanes, up to 13
youngsters have been prac-
ticing to compete in this
year's Special Olympics.
Kathy Ramer, Lou Mork,
Jewell Burkett, Sherry Davi-
son and Marion Deeson don-
ated many hours as they


helped the bowlers to learn
the game. This was a new
experience for most of the
Gulf County retardees.
All parents and children in
Gulf County are invited by
Mrs. Lyles to attend this
year's Special Olympics. Any
adult that could help on Sat-
urday morning should be at
the Port St. Joe High School
at 8:45 a.m.

Gulf Employees


Giver

Gulf County employees will
get a cost of living increase
in wages beginning with the
pay period which starts Mon-
day, after action by the Coun-
ty Commission Tuesday.
Commissioner Walter Gra-
ham had reported at the
meeting two week's ago the
employees wanted such an
increase in wages and the
Board put off the move two
weeks to examine the various
budgets to see if the money
was available and to deter-
mine just how much of a
raise to give.
Employees of the County
will receive an additional 10c
per hour beginning Monday,
following Tuesday's action.
The Board was undecided
whether or not to give a
percentage increase or flat
amount each week. Commis-
sioner T. D. Whitfield re-
solved the controversy by
moving that the 10c increase
be granted.
The Board had been toying
with a 5 percent increase,
which would have amounted
to about $7.00 per week per
employee, but it was de-
termined by financial officer
Jerry Gates that this amount
would overdraw on some of
the budgets.
Gates pointed out that
three budgets could not fi-
nance a raise of any kind and
that others were "running
real close".


S10c

The salary increase will
cost the County in the
neighborhood of $12,000 for
the remainder of the budget
year, according to Gates'
quick estimate.
SHIFT AUTHORITY
Commissioner Walter Gra-
ham wants to shift part of the
road building and mainten-
ance responsibility to Em-
mette Daniell, Mosquito Con-
trol Supervisor. Graham
would have Daniell supervise
patching operations, leaving
Road Superintendent Lloyd
Whitfield in charge of main-
tenance of dirt roads and in
charge of new construction.
Graham said Whitfield
"was stretched too thin" to
properly supervise all the
operations he is responsible
for. "Whitfield is trying to
supervise 20 men while Dan-
iell has only five in his
department," Graham point-
ed out. The Commissioner
said he felt the paving and
patching operations would
progress better if the re-
sponsibility was dilluted in
order to allow closer super-
vision of each project.
The Board went along with
Graham's thinking but it
wasn't clear whether Daniell
would or not, since he was
not present for the meeting.

Doing Right Well


Remember how you studied,
about honesty and the value of a
penny when you were just a child
by having the story told of Abra-
ham Lincoln trudging miles in the
snow to return several pennies in
change he had failed to give a
customer in the store in which he
was working? Remember the old
saw, "Take care of the pennies and
the dollars will take care of
themselves"?
By golly, it appears this lesson
of thrift and honesty applies to
gasoline as well as pennies.
As gasoline became more
scarce in much of the country and
waiting in line at service stations
became a way of life for much of
the nation, the Federal government
took great pains to emphasize that,
bad as it is, the situation was the
lesser of two evils. The other evil,
of course, was rationing.
Almost nightly, Walter Cron-
kite. or one of his colleagues sat in
front of a picture of the proposed
gas rationing coupon and reminded
us-as though we didn't already
know-that the penalty for not
saving enough fuel may well be
rationing, with all of its inequities
and headaches.
How well have we been doing?


According to the Federal 'Energy
Office, very well.
The FEO originally forecast
that during this winter, the United
States would require 18.6 million
battels of oil a day to meet
domestic demand. However, as the
week ending December 28, Amer-
icans were consuming, only about
16.8 million barrels a day, or 1.8
million barrels below the projected
demand.
Just this past week, the FEO
gave substantial boosts in the gas-
oline allotment to all states, nearly
to the level of 1973. This would
indicate the American people han-
dled themselves very well in this
problem area.
problem area.
According to a recent news
article, Dr. Douglas C. Bauer, an
FEO official said the allocation
procedures and conservation mea-
sures have worked, "not because of
what FEO has done but because of
what millions of Americans have
done."
There you have it. As we were
sure all along, the overwhelming
majority of Americans will still re-
spond positively and constructively
to a genuine national crisis,,amwhe-
ther it involves fighting or fuel.


Attention confirmed bachelors: during the days of the Roman Empire, marriage
avoidance was so widespread, the Emperor Augustus passed laws against it.


SIMON'S FUEL SHORTAGE
Pity poor Simon, the newborn African Pygmy
Goat. His first four days at Florida's Sunken

Counties Won't


Be Penalized


for Reports


TALLAHASSEE- No Flor-
ida city or county will lose
state revenue sharing funds
for failure to make financial
reports to Comptroller Fred
0. "Bud" Dickinson.
This announcement came
today as Dickinson forwarded
his required report on local
units of government to the
Governor. The report con-
tains financial and geo-
graphic information on each
of Florida's 67 counties and
386 cities.
Dickinson is required by
the Florida Revenue Sharing
Act to compile statistical
data on local governme(4s.
for use by state authorities in
determining each unit's allo-
cation of funds. National
authorities also will use the
report for determining alloca-
tion of Federal Revenue
Sharing.
"This is the first time in
Florida history that data has
been reported on all of Flor-
ida's cities," Dickinson said.
The report includes finan-
cial facts on all cities from
the state's smallest, Marine-
land, to the 'largest, Miami.
Marineland is located in
Flagler County and has a
population of four. Miami's
352,000 residents comprise
the largest incorporated
municipality in Dade County,
which has over 1.2 million
persons.
Florida's revenue sharing
act has been operative since
July and replaces previous
acts for allocating state tax
funds back to local govern-
ments.
Under the law, separate
trust funds are established
for cities and counties. The
city trust fund includes tax
revenue from cigarette ((11

package) intangible and road

cludes one cent of the 12

Energy Crisis Cuts

Traffic Death Rate
.ALLAHASE E -, Th


TALLAHASSEE The
energy crisis is responsible
for rQducing Florida's traffic
deaths but at the same time
it is creating a new traffic
danger said the Florida High-
way Patrol this week. '
Colonel Eldrige Beach,
Patrol Director said, "One of
the more serious traffic pro-
blems arising from the ener-
gy crisis is the carrying of
extra gasoline by motorists
who fear that they may not
be able to purchase addition-
al gas when traveling. Usu-
ally spare gas is carried in
the trunk of an automobile
and in the case of a rear-end
collision, drivers and passen-
gers are in real danger. Flor-
ida has approximately 25,000
rear-end auto crashes
annually."
"Glass and plastic contain-
ers are especially danger-
ous," continued the director.
"So are most fuel containers
used by homeowners for
power mowers. Rusty or old
metal containers should not
be used. Nor should any con-
tainer that allows accidental
spillage. A spark from a
short in. a taillight or brake
light could set off an explo-
sion more dangerous than
dynamite should there be an
accumulation of gas fumes in
a car trunk."
Colonel Beach concluded by


flat.
Along time ago there was a
Lady Godiva who rode
around on a naked horse
naked and although the horse
was very beautiful, no one
even saw him but the lady
made history as she was
exceptionally well endowed.
A few years back there was
somebody who urged Jackie
Kennedy to cover up all
evidence of her male horse's
sex but she very wisely deci-
ded to. let him go ahead and
streak.
There was an erroneous


saying, "Our advice is to not
carry gas, but if an emer-
gency arises and you must,
use a sturdy and securely
closed container. Do not
leave it in the trunk any
longer than absolutely neces-
sary."

Report

Required

by S.S.
People who earned over
$2,100 and got one or more
monthly social security
retirement or survivors
checks in 1973 must submit
an annual report of their
earnings to social security by
April 15, according to Robert
Latta, Social Security Repre-
sentative for Giilf County.
The report" shows how
much was earned in wages
and self-employment income
last year by people who got
social security payments-as
well as how much they
expect to earn this year.
"The report will be used to
determine if people were paid
the correctamount of social
security benefits for 1973, and
to adjust their monthly social
security payments for 1974
according to their estimated
earnings," Latta said.
Full social security benefits
could be paid to eligible
people in 1973 if they earned
$2,100 or less for the year. No
matter how much they earn-
ed for the year, they could be
paid their full social security
benefits for any month they
earned $175 or less and didn't
do substantial work in their
own business.
For 1974, the figures are
$2,400 for the year and $200 a
month.
The annual earnings report
should not include income
from other retirement plans,
dividends, rent, or sale of
property (unless the income
was received by a real estate
dealer), according to Latta.
"People who file an annual
report late or don't file one
that's due may be pena-
lized," Latta said. "A penalty
means loss of social security
benefits."
People who were over 72 in
all months of 1973 do not need
to make an annual report for
social security.


today.
The trip was a first for me, but it was one
of the most enjoyable I have ever taken.
Bob, if ever you conduct another excursion
I'm ready to go again.


A trip down the Apalachicola Northern
Railroad tracks from Chatthoochee to Port St.
Joe would convince anyone, as it did me, that
the ones who built the road shortly after the
turn of the century apparently chose the most
scenic route through this part of the country for
the tracks to follow.
Last Friday, the Railroad furnished a trip
down the line for several of its retired
employees who spent their days in an office or
depot along the 100 mile road. The railroad has,
in recent years, spent considerable money on
the road itself and now boasts the finest string
of track and most modern trestles and bridges
in the business. They can well boast, too, since
their track is as straight as an arrow, with a
rock roadbed for its entire length and substan-
tial steel and timber trestles.
Two of the men who were scheduled to go
on the trip had to cancel out at the last minute
and I got one of their seats ini one of the
three station wagons equipped to ride on the
rails which made the trip. Traveling with us
were J. A. Fillinjim who said this month marks
the 63rd anniversary of his first employment
with the AN; H. A. Drake, former Postmaster
and former Comptroller with the line here; T.
S. Singletary, B. R. Gibson, Sr., Bill Ebersole,
a hisorian of steam engines and Lee Elzey, son
of R. H. Ellzey, present Superintendent of the
road.
We were chauffeured by Ellzey, Frank.
Pierce, Roadmaster and Ralph Kimmell, Traf-
fic Manager.
It was our pleasure to ride with H. A.
Drake, J. A. Fillinjim and B. R. Gibson, Sr., at
various points along the trek. Drake knew
much of the history of the road and kept us
entertained with some of the financial hard-
ships suffered during the time the nation was in
the grips of a depression. He has a fantastic
memory. He even remembered most of the
account numbers used by the Accounting
Department even though he left the railroad in
the early 40's to become postmaster for Port
St. Joe.
Fillinjim could name every creek, eddy,
siding and most of the hills in the area around
WHosford and North. He had served as station- |
master at 'Hosford anfd Telogia during years '
gone by.
B: R. Gibson told several tales of wrecks
the railroad encountered during his days of
railroading which began shortly after the line
was activated about 1910. He told of one wreck
he remembered vividly which happened when
he was a young man. The train ran into the
Chattahoochee River when the trestle gave
way. He was riding in the caboose at the time
and he got out through the window at the top of
the caboose and crawled along a log to the
shore. Gibson said that in spite of the many
wrecks which occurred back in the days when
the road was operating on a bare bones budget,
he said not the first death has ever been
recorded as the result of a wreck.
Gibson told tales of wading water, waist
deep ahead of the locomotive in high water to
push logs, ties and debris from in front of the
engine so it it wouldn't be derailed.
But no more. The road is rapidly changing
over to concrete cross ties now, and the 100
mile route is generously laced with the new
ties.
There are names along the route such as
Hardaway, Telogia, Sumatra, Vilas, Buck's
Siding, Wilma and names such as 1,000 Acre
Pond which literally became that in the spring
high water.
All of these places are mostly gone now.
One rides the entire route and not a station is
to be seen. Yet, before the "Big War" all were
bustling communities with activity everywhere.
Places like Hosford, Greensboro and all the
other small communities kept the railroad busy
with their harvesting of the green gold of
Northwest Florida forests.
In spite of the bustling activity which saw
trainload after trainload of lumber products
shipped to Port St. Joe to be put on schooners
and vessels for other ports, the road was
operating in the red, spending $130.00 for
operations for every $100.00 in revenue it took
in.
The road did a lively business in picking up
black farm hands and logging workers along
the trackside, carrying them to "town" for loc
or 15c. Today there are no passenger trains.
Neither are there a dozen or so depots
along the road. The only mark left at many of
these former depot sites is a sidetrack where
empty cars are left to be filled with stumps and
pulpwood. The old wells which formerly fur-
nished water for the steam engines are all out
of operation. But the road is making money

"To Catch a Meal" is a
study of the eating patterns
of several species: the bar-
nacle that snares the cilia;
the angler that lures the
victim; the sea horse's use of
vacuum; and the man-of-
war's use of venom. Others

Film on Prophecy

At First Baptist


"A Thief in the Night", a
motion picture about Bible
prophecy, will be shown at
the First Baptist Church Sun-
day night, March 24 at 7:30.
p.m.
The plot centers around
Patty, an average girl caught
up in living for the present,
with little concern for the
future. What happens when
this line of thinking catches
up with her provides an
action packed drama.
The fast moving pace
includes a young man con-
fronted. by a deadly Asian
cobra, a young girl's daring


escape from jail, and a take-
over by "The Imperium"
that regards all who are not
properly identified as enem-
ies of the system.
Filmed on location in Iowa,
this picture portrays with
devastating reality the Bibli-
cal prediction, "There will be
no place to hide" when the
rapture comes. One does not
merly view this film, he
experiences it. Every think-
ing person will seriously con-
sider its impact.
The Youth Choir extends a
cordial invitation to everyone
in the community.

to be baptized in the Name of

the Gentile Disciples of Ephe-

Why was the term "Father,
Son, and Holy Ghost" never
repeated in baptism by any
one of the Apostles? Because
Father, Son and Holy Ghost
were only titles or offices of
God, and not God's Name!
*For the name of Father read
Isaiah 9:6. For the name of
the Son read Matt. 1:21. For

Rish Harbors Hope


For More Uniform


Property Valuation


By Jack Harper
Tallahassee Democrat
Rep. W. J. (Billy Joe) Rish, D Port St.
Joe, said Friday he hoped the courts would
take a long look at the lack of uniformity in
county by county property assessments
under the state's full value law.
He said he sympathized with taxpayers
of Gadsden County where assessments in-
creased 129 per cent and the tax bite almost
doubled while some counties in the state did
not go up to full value.
"Some mechanism must be worked out
for uniform valuations," Rish said, "and
there is validity in what the people of
Gadsden County are attempting to do."
The Gadsden County Taxpayers' suit
won its first round when Circuit Judge Ben
C. Willis denied a Department of Revenue
motion to dismiss and ordered that 30 per
cent of this year's Gadsden County taxes be
held in escrow until the case is settled.
Sponsors of the suit contend they are
planning to take the case to the State Sup-
reme Court is necessary.
Rish said Gov. Reubin Askew's budget
proposal to plow $140 million into the state
school system would not be necessary if the
Legislature had mandated a tax rollback
last year when it implemented the full value
law.
"We required public notice of the
increased valuation, but not a mandatory
rollback," he said. "The climate has now
changed. Most of the members I've talked to
feel the public notice didn't work and are
ready to mandate a rollback."
1 Gov. Askew called for a 20 per cent cut
in school taxes and $140 million from surplus
funds to make it up.
"It's not the same as it would have been


if we had mandated a rollback last year
when we implemented the full value law,"
Rish said.
The Port St. Joe Democrat termed
Askew's budget proposals overall "a good
budget."
He said the budget contained many of
the tax reform measures he and other area
legislators have already prefiled in bills
with some exceptions.
"I have filed legislation that would
exempt small "mom and pop" businesses
from paying corporate taxes on the first
$10,000," he said, "and Askew's budget
doesn't propose it."
Rep. Wayne Mixson, D-Marianna, has a
bill which would reduce the present 10 mill
cap on school taxes to seven mills. Askew
favors a reduction to eight mills.
Mixson also has a profiled bill which
would require a vote of the people on pro-
perty tax increases of more than ten per
cent. Askew doesn't.
When he introduced the bill Mixson said
laws intended to equalize property assess-
ments at 100 per cent were not working. He
pointed out then that other legislation com-
pels school boards to levy the full ten mills
in order to share in state financing.
Rish said Friday he is hoping the
Legislature will pass Askew's proposal
providing a raise from $5,000 to $10,000 for
the homestead exemption allowed senior
citizens of Florida over 65.
"There will be a lot of statewide support
for that one," Rish said.
Last year tax reform died early in the
session when Gov. Askew worked out a
compromise with conservative legislators to
plow corporate tax funds into roaas and a
pledge to spend only on non-recurring
expenditures.


Nematodes Can be


Controlled by Chemicals


ber of taxable period can
save taxes. Suppose that an
estate comes into being on
May 1 and it is expected that
the administration will take
ten months. The executor
might simply proceed to wind
up the estate and file a single
return for the ten-month
period. But since an estate
will have no income in the
year of final distribution
under Code Sec. 661, the $600
exemption would be wasted.
However, if the executor
chooses a fiscal year ending
January 31, he has a $600
exemption to offset against
nine months of estate income.


By Shannon Smith
Home Grounds Specialist
University of Florida
What are nematodes, how
do I tell if they are killing my
lawn and how do Icontrol
them? These are three of the
most common questions of
home gardeners in Florida.
Dr. D. W. Dickson, Dr. G.
C. Smart, Jr. and Dr. V. G.
Perry, Nematologists with
the Institute of Food and
Agricultural Sciences, Uni-
versity of Florida, have ans-
wers to these questions which
I will convey to you in this
and next week's article.
Nematodes are microscopic
animals that live primarily in


the soil. Many of these eel-
worm-shaped animals are
beneficial, however, several
attack grasses and are com-
monly called plant parasites.
The plant parasitic nema-
todes must feed on plant
hosts and they often are the
primary causes of poor qual-
ity lawns in Florida. In fact,
bermudagrasses, zoysia-
grasses and centipedegrasses
cannot be satisfactorily
grown in many parts of the
state unless nematodes are
controlled.
Since nematodes are micro-
scopic and cannot be seen by
homeowners, diagnosis of
the problem is not easy.


What symptoms should a
home gardener look for when
a nematode problem is sus-
pected? First, observe the
above ground portion of the
turf. The grass leaves may
appear off-colored, usually
yellowed, stunted and dying
back.
The turf will usually be thin
and in an unthrifty state of
growth. The grass often
appears to be suffering from
lack of fertilizer or water and
will not respond to applica-
tions of either of these two
essentials.
Second, the roots of the
grass should be carefully
examined for signs of abnor-
mal growth. The parasitic
nematodes attack the root
system, feeding on the young
roots, and often causing
severe stunting of the entire
root system. Affected roots
appear shriveled, blackened
and stubby and there gener-


ally will be an absence of
white feeder roots. Unaffect-
ed plants have deep, well-
developed root systems and
healthy looking white feeder
roots.
Since nematodes reduce
roots, turf cannot obtain suf-
ficient water and fertilizer
elements. It slowly declines,
yellows and becomes thin.
All of our common lawn-
grasses are affected by
nematodes. Bahiagrasses
appear to be least affected.
Also, there are many differ-
ent types of nematodes which
parasitize these grasses.
Generally two or more types
are found in lawns and in
many cases seven or eight
types may be present in a
single lawn. This makes
nematode control a difficult
problem since one type can
be easily killed while another
type might be extremely dif-
ficult to control.


Tax

Planning
.By J. H. Fleming
A number of elections are
available to the executor of a
decedent's estate which are
important taxwise in post-
mortem estate tax planning,
one of which is choice of the
taxable year.


An estate may initially
adopt any taxable year which
the executor chooses-fiscal
or calendar. Thus, if an
estate comes into existence
on March 15, 1973, the execu-
tor may choose as its taxable
year the period ending on
March 31, 1973, on February
28, 1974, or on the last day of
any intervening month.
This choice offers opportun-
ity for important income tax
savings and hinges to a large


extent on such factors as the
probable duration of admini-
stration, the probable estate
income and the timing of its
receipt, the probable deduc-
tions of the estate and their
timing, and ,the taxable years
.:and probable income and
deductions of the benefici-
aries.
Since an estate is entitled
to one $600 exemption each
time it files an income tax
return, maximizing'the num-

CARL GUILFORD. JR.


Chippers Eliminate Wood Waste


For every cubic foot of
wood now harvested in Flor-
ida forests, another cubic foot
remains as logging residue.
"? "This is an untenable situ-
ation, for the demand for
wood products in Florida will
triple by the year 2000," said
Ralph Monahan, utilization
specialist with the Division of
Forestry, Florida Depart-
ment of Agriculture and Con-
sumer Services.
Taking the state as a
whole, some staggering sta-
tistics are revealed: some 14
million cubic feet of hard-
wood, and nearly 11 million
cubic feet of softwoods, are
left as logging residue. That
is the highest record of un-
used wood in the nation.
"Eighty per cent of the
timber that is cut in the Fort
,Myers area alone is not utili-
zed," Monahan claims.
What can eliminate the pro-
blem of tree waste?
Perhaps the most sophisti-
cated, revolutionary item to
come down the pike in the

the Wewahitchka area, shown
in the photograph, and the
other is getting urban utiliza-
tion in the Miami area (in
land-clearing operations).
According to Monahan and
Hal Friensehner, research
and marketing analyst in the
Division of Forestry, the total
tree harvester method of log-
ging increases pulpwood
yields up to 160 per cent in
some species.
"The idea of using the
whole tree (bark, wood, twigs
and leaves) is especially
appealing to us in Florida,"
Friensehner said, "if we are
going to meet the predicted
demand for wood products by
the year 2000."
Whole tree harvesting has
numerous significant advan-
tages.
Since it takes all vegetative
material, there is no such
thing as residue or unmer-
chantable trees. (No debris to
window, burn or haul away.)
Selective cuts leave the
residual stand in a "park-
like" condition.
Harvests are so clean in

Pulp companies are finding
it feasible to produce paper
from such material. Other
market opportunities already
explored are numerous-and
"total tree chips" (wood,

erably easier to transport
than whole logs.

The National Honor Society
is holding its annual book fair
in the conference room of the
Media Center this week. Stu-
dents are invited to view the
books on display, and order
those that appeal to them.
The general public is cor-
dially invited.
Students of Port St. Joe
High School, heads up! Both
adults and adolescents have a
tendency to not get involved
with the powers that be. This
is a very sad state of affairs:
surely if we elect someone to
a position of responsibility,
that responsibility is to us.
However, how can, say, the
Student Council determine
the wishes of the student
body if there is no communi-
cation between the two?
Supposedly, the homeroom
representatives are to report
the actions of the Council
during homeroom meetings.


Unfortunately. about the only
time homerooms meet is
when students pick up their
report cards at the end of
each six weeks period.
Perhaps the responsibility
for communication should be
with the student body-not
the Council. If you have any
ideas that you feel would
make your school a better
one, please tell them to the
Student Council. Tavia
Copenhaver is the president
of the student body. The Stu-
dent Council is not meant to
be, nor should it ever be an
elite group of students whose
sole purpose is to sponsor
entertainment projects for
the student body. In order to
have any voice in your
school, you have got to open
your mouth. Remember, if
you have a constructive sug-
gestion that you want to be
acted upon or at least dis-


cussed, tell it to a member of
your Student Council. After
all, this is what America is
all about, right?
This column is dedicated to
the students of our high
school. If any students wishes
to contribute to this column,
please contact Carl Guilford,
Jr. What the world needs now
is a free flow of ideas.
That's it for now, but there
are more happenings afoot.
Please join me next week
when I'll try to bring you
some more good news for a
change. Remember: when in
doubt, laugh!
