County Promised More Secondary Road Funds Charles Dunn, with the Depart- ment of Transportation's Chipley office asked the County Com- mission Tuedsay night to set up their five year secondary road needs in priority to be presented to a meeting of DOT in Panama City the latter part of March. Elton Lee King Taken by 'Death Funeral services for Elton Lee King, 77, of 512 Fourth Street, were held Saturday, February 19 at 3:00 p.m. from the Klipat- rick Funeral Home Chapel with the Rev. William N. Stephens of- ficiating. Interment followed at Holly Hill Cemetery. Mr. King died Thursday of last week fol- lowing a short illness. King had lived in the Port St. Joe area for the past 48 years, moving here f r o m Georgia, where he was born. He was a re- tired automotive mechanic and a veteran of World War II. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Rosie King; four sons, El- ton Lee King, Jr., of Atlanta, Ga., Bobby King fo Perry, Jasper King with the U. S. Army in Oki- nawa and Robert Lee King of Port St. Joe; four daughters, Mrs. Christine Brooks of Orlan- do, Mrs. Inez Nichols of Lake- land, Mrs. Mary Alice Fichera of Jacksonville and Miss Betty Sue Ann King of Port St. Joe; one brother and 13 grandchildren. Pallbearers included Jimmie Kilbourn, L. Z. Henderson, Jack Sheffield, Jeff Player, Emmett Daniell and George Dykes. Kilpatrick Funeral Home was in charge of arrangements. Dunn told- the Board that af- ter the 1972-'73 year, the Coun- ty will have considerably more money each year with which to build roads. "This is because a road building bond issue you floated several years ago will be paid off. Dunn said the county will have $149,000 with which to build sec- ondary roads in '72-'73; $263,000 in '73-'74; $289,000 in '74-'75; $313,000 in '75-'76 and $334,000 in '76-'77. "Most of this increase is coming through increased gas taxes brought to the state by Disney World," Dunn said. The Board, which has been approached by the City of We- wahitchka to put 36" pipe along 1500 feet of new street has been reluctant because they had pre- viously promised to put pipe on Long Avenue from 18th Street to the Elementary School last year before any other piping pro- jects were done. When Dunn was asked the sta- tus of this project, he replied it wasn't listed in their program. All of the members thought it had been placed near the top priority and warned Dunn that they would be making' some changes in projects already re- quested before the March meet- ing, so the Long Avenue project could be included. Dunn told the Board they would begin receiving more mon- ey to conduct their own main- tenance program shortly. Gulf was one of five counties in this area to assume this responsi- bility rather than let the state do it. The State, in turn, was to turn certain gasoline tax money over to the county for this pur- pose. The Board members complain- ed that thus far the county has (Continued On Page 10) tor that should be kept With him at all times. It could be' extreme- ly valuable to him in the event of an accident or a sudden ill- ness. Each person giving blood will be checked at the time of dona- tion for Hemoglobin, detection of syphilis, antibodies in the blood, Hepatitis, blood pressure and pulse and temperature. The information of the above tests will be available to the donor if requested. The Jaycees and hospital offi- -eials urge-everyone to cooperat- -in this' program. Itf may save a" life. * * Tickets On Sale for Football Banquet The Quarterback Club and the High School Athletic Department of Port St. Joe High School are sponsoring the annual football awards banquet March 18 at 8:00 p.m. Speaker for the banquet will be Mickey Anderson, coach of the NAIA champions at Living- ston State College in Alabama.

The rattler had 10 rattles, which John re- ported, he was using loudly. --Star photo The Gulf County Commission unanimously agreed Tuesday night to make an official request to the office of the Governor of Florida to intervene in the St. Joe Paper Company strike here in Port St. Joe with his state mediation service. The Board instructed attorney Fred Witten and Clerk George Core to prepare a Resolution to Governor Reubin Askew request- ing the assistance of his office in trying to reach an agreement in the seven-montoi-old strike. Two of the Commissioners, Walter Graham and Lamar Da- vis are members of the striking unions. The move came on the heels of week end expectations for a set- tlement which failed when St. Joe Paper Company told the un- ions they would no longer col- lect dues of its members by pay- roll deduction. Support Wayside Park Hughey Williams and H. T. West asked the Board for its support in securing the proposed wayside park for the Beacon Hill area. Representative William J. Rish said at the last meeting of the Board there is a strong pos- sibility the Department of Trans- portation will construct a park -on county owned beachfront pro- perty at the junction of the Bay- Gulf County line. Williams said he had a petition signed by 30 residents who live in the vicinity of the park, sup- porting its construction.' Wil- a -said-he had another tpetih Stl'on signed by 100 other -resi- dents in support of the park. Williams said "Nearly 90% of those I have talked to are in favor of its construction". Commissioners Silas Player and Leo Kennedy said they had received only one objection to the project and they were going to support the park. The remain- der of the Board offered their support also. The Board then voted to offi- cially instruct Representative Rish to proceed with negotia- tions to get the recreation facil- ity built.

The Board said they would look at the mat- ter and make restitution to Lay- field to his satisfaction.. Bob Freeman, president of the St. Joseph Bay Country Club invited the Board to ground breaking ceremonies for con- struction of the new clubhouse Thursday morning. Freeman re- ported that construction of the recreation site is progressing well and thanked the Board for their assistance in the project.

February is Heart Month in the nation, according to Dr. Wes- ley Grace, Gulf County Chair- man. Dr. Grace said the annual fund drive will be a concentrat- ed effort here in Gulf County Patrick Returns Huge 'Sum to County Treasury Gulf County Tax Assessor S. A. Patrick has returned $53,029.- 71 to the Gulf County Commis- sion, in excess fees. Patrick also returned $6,003.82 to the Gulf County School Board. Patrick said the excess fees were over a two year period, but was still the largest amount his -office has ever returned to the county. with a Mother's March scheduled for the entire county on Sunday afternoon. Grace said several other fund raising events are scheduled for the remainder of the month to raise funds for research in the cause and cure for heart disease. Chairmen for various phases of the drive include Bob Moss and Charles Arant, in charge of downtown solicitation and the Mother's March in Port St. Joe; Leo Kennedy in charge of the Oak Grove area and Mrs. Dallas Cannon in charge of the Wewa- hitchka area. 'We know finances are tight here at this time", Grace said, "but we urge everyone to give what they can to this worthy cause". This pick-up truck was the "slamee" and received a busted nose in the accident at Fourth and Woodward. Woman Charged With Running Stop Sign In Two Car Accident Saturday A late model automobile and a pick-up truck collided in an accident Saturday afternoon at the intersection of Woodward Avenue and Fourth Street, ac- cording to local police. Police reports show that a 1969 sedan driven by Mrs. Annie Mae Lowery of Clearwater, ran the stop sign at the intersection and struck a pick-up truck driven by Jesse Anderson of 304 Madison Street. Anderson's truck was knocked across the street and rammed into the home of Er- nest Lowery, Jr. Estimated damages to both ve- hicles was $2100 with no damage reported to the home. Neither driver nor five pas- sengers in the Lowery auto were injured . The accident was investigated by Patrolman Dan Register. * PAGE TWO THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Florida THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1972 Editorials... Price of A Principle How much is a principle worth? $10.00? $100.00? $10,000? $1 million? ,$10 million? That's a hard ques- tion to answer anyway you look at it. Of course, your own personal interest in the principle either detracts from or enhances its value. Being affected by the exercising of the. principle through no fault of your own is harder to take than if you were. personally involved. We know that. But how much is a principle worth? It's accord- ing to the principle, isn't it. Some principles are worth more than others. Some-are worth-dying-for and others are not worth walking across the street to defend. We here in Port St. Joe are testing the worth of a principle and the biggest debate going is, "is it worth what it costs?" Many say "no". Some say "yes". Re- gardless of which is correct, we're still faced with the problem of how much this particular principle is going to cost us before it is resolved. At the present time, we have, in round figures, $21 million invested in the principle at stake in the St. Joe Paper Company strike. Records show that $4,324,278 has been lost in paper company wages alone. This doesn't take into consideration the untold thousands of dollars in wages lost as a result of allied, satellite or dependent I wages paid when the mill is going full steam ahead. Other allied losses include $5,991,645 in freight rev- enues which are felt all the way from here to Canada; $8,674,974 lost in wood purchases which affects all of Northwest Florida and especially the surrounding coun- ties of Bay, Jackson, Calhoun, Liberty and Franklin. The area .has lost $2,637,809 which would ordinarily be spent for supplies. Port St. Joe's longshoremen have lost an estimated $219,482 in wages and the State of Florida has lost a whopping $167,665 in sales taxes. Again we ask, "how much is a principle worth?- how much is this particular principle worth?" We say it has already cost $21 million. How much is that? We read where the new capitol complex for the State of Flor- ida is going to cost $25 million. There's a comparison for you. Another month or so, and our principle will have We sort of go along with House Speaker Richard Pettigrew on the superfluity of placing the straw vote on busing on the March 13 ballot but for different rea- sons. Pettigrew says it is an already proven fact that the majority of blacks and whites are opposed to forced bus- ing merely to achieve an integrated situation in areas .which wouldn't normally be integrated. Hardly anybody (except those in government championing this method) agrees with the busing concept. The Speaker further has said it is the business of the Legislature to handle such matters as busing. He is right. We may be slightly far out, but we believe the mat- ter was placed ,on the March ballot for the purpose of drawing people to the polls to vote in the presidential pop- ularity poll here in Florida. We hesitate to call it a pri- mary because we don't see it as such. True, the March ballot will get Florida a lot of publicity. Attention will be drawn to the Sunshine State and its "Democratic choice". But it will not serve as any binding stepping-stone toward the White House. The problem is, were it not for the busing question on the ballot in March-something to attract interest- the Florida presidential primary would go to George Wal- lace of Alabama almost by default. No presidential can- didate had been able to stir up enough enthusiasm to get enough votes to be elected city commissioner of Tallahas- see, much less Florida's choice for President of the Unit- ed States. The interest just wasn't there to get out the vote. But George Wallace is a different story.

How about thosq who have lost businesses, homes, auto- mobiles, boats, furniture, etc., all of which had equity paid in and now all gone. How much does that figure? Regardless of hpw much the figure is.now, it can do noth- ing but increase as time, goes by. Chances are that it will begin to rise more rapidly. Businesses, regardless of how large or how small, cannot continue to defer payments indefinitely. Some have already felt the pinch and have had to demand payment. It was either that or go broke. What kind of a principle makes a merchant go broke so his customers can continue to defer their payments.? We're not trying to be funny: We're not trying to cast any blame on anybody. We are trying to reiterate what Lieutenant Governor Tom Adams said before the Chamber of Commerce a little over a week ago: "There is nothing before the two parties involved that cannot be resolved by reasonable men". If this is so, it's a pity that the reasonable men of Port St. Joe have allowed this thing to drag on thus far. We don't know the issues. From all the listening we have done, nobody is fully cognizant of the issues except the negotiators. This is a terrible situation. Both sides of the question have their rights and have merit to their claims. Of that we are sure. But this third side of the problem: those being affected through no choice of their own and have no voice in the settlement of the matter, also have their rights. They deserve to be considered since it is costing them as much as the man walking the picket line. We're not asking anybody to betray a principle or a trust, but we are asking that they consider the fact there are others involved in this too-others who can do nothing but lose. How much does a principle cost? We think this one has cost more than enough. porters would brave New York City streets at night time to get to the polls and cast a vote in his behalf. Wallace would be a cinch if it were not for the busing amendment to stir up some interest in going to the polls. Too Late To Classify By Russell Kay In his book, "Plants Are Like People", Jerry Baker, America's Master Gardener, tells us that while vegetable life may be deaf and dumb, they posses a highly sensitive nervous sys- tem and experience emotions and react very similar to hu- man beings. He urges the would-be sucess- ful gardener to talk to his plants much as he would talk to animal pets. They may not purr or wag their tails in appreciation of the Love and attention shown them but they have other ways of 'showing their appreciation for human understanding care and attention. I first encountered the thought that plants are like people from stories and articles I read in several different magazines. One told of a California Preacher who. set out to test the theory by planting two flower beds side by side from the same seed. He gave both beds the same care and attention, but every morning he talked to them, blessing one bed and cursing the other. He praised the one and condemned the other. The bed that received his blesisng grew strong and vi- gorous while the one he cursed and condemned became stunted and finally withered and died. A later article told of a scien- tist who attached electrodes to plants and found that charts in- dicated their reactions to various emotions. They became alarmed when danger threatened them; showed resentment and jealousy when neglected and other plants received better treatment care and attention. When animals were abused in their presence it immediately registered on their charts. My first reaction to such be- lief was "Nonsence." I found it hard to accept, but now I know from personal experience it is ture. A few months ago while work- ing in the yard with my garden- You Are Cordially Invited To Attend LONG AVENUE BAPTIST CHURCH Corner 'Long Avenue and 16th Street SUNDAY SCHOOL 9:45 MORNING WORSHIP 11:00 BAPTIST TRAINING UNION .........---------. 5:45 EVENING WORSHIP 7:00 PRAYER SERVICE (Wednesday) ...... 7:30 VISITORS ALWAYS WELCOME A.M.

Bond spoke to members about "the role of the community colleges in higher education". Districts represented w e re Bay and Rutherford Hig h schools, Blountstown High, Port St. Joe High, Wewahitchka High, Chipley High, Bonifay and Mar- ianna High schools. Miss Carolyn Borntrager, pres- ident of Wewahitchka Honor Society introduced Bond as mas- ter of ceremonies for the "Brain Brawl". This is competition bas- ed on the concept of television's "College Bowl". Port St. Joe High School won first place hon- ors. Port St. Joe's "Brain Team" was made up of George McLaw- hon, Jr., Kitty Core, Talmon Sisk and Robert Creamer. District officers were elected. Those who will serve for the 1972-1973 period are Blounts- town High School, president; Bonifay High School, vice-presi- dent; Port St. Joe High School, secretary-treasurer and Ruther- ford High, parliamentarian. er we stopped to look at a clump of Japanese Lantern plants. They took up considerable' space in the garden, grew like weeds but did not blossom. We recalled that the year before only one single puny blossom appeared. The gardener said. "I guess we might just as well dig those plants up and replace them with something else?" I agreed and while we did not act on his sug- gestion at the time, we planned to do so before time for spring planting arrived. I thought no more about it until a couple of weeks later when I was surprised to note that the plant was covered with tiny buds, dozens of them. Talking to them as I would to another human I said, "You- must have heard and understood what we said." Apparently it frightened you so you decided to do something about it. We sure must have thrown a scare into you to cause you to break out with so many buds in such a short time and out of season. "Alright," I said, "I'll put you on probation." In another week or so they were a riot of bloom. Practically every stem was top- heavy. The more I congratulated and praised them finally decid- ing to get off welfare and go to work, the more they produced. Friends who recalled the sin- gle bloom of the previous year were amazed. It was unbelieva- ble; but it actually happened. Etaoin Shrdlu by WESLEY R. RAMSEY President Nixon has arrived in China and has had his day as the first United States President to land in that ancient nation. Pre-trip prognostication was that the President would receive a "warm welcome" if either Chairman Mao or a large throng of people were present to greet him when he landed. There was neither. The only thing that greet- ed the President was a chill wind and those government officials necessary for a "polite" welcome. Not much in the way of either optimism or pessimism has been written concerning the trip, other than what might ordinarily be expected from the President's support- ers on the one side and his detractors on the other side. The President's visit is sort of one of those "hold your breath and see what happens" affairs. We can hope it's good whatever happens. * From all we read, the President's visit to Red China isn't going to shorten or lengthen the war in Vietnam one day. All of the "experts" concerning things Oriental say the Russians, not the Chinese are the force behind the hammer of Hanoi. The Chinese and the Vietnamese have been enemies for centuries. * To the brighter side. You wouldn't know it by the temperatures experien- ced here over the past week end, but Spring is here. The azaleas- are bursting out all over. The grass is turning green. Jimmy Greer and W. I. Carden have already plant- ed their irish potatoes and the garden seeds are on the counters at the stores. It may still be snowing, icing and freezing up North but here in sunny Florida it's time. to turn the sod, tune up the mower, buy your fertilizer and, get your wife in physical condition to handle the rake and hoe. How do we get so spoiled? These gadgets have, become masters rather than ser- vants. Every new labor-saving device that comes along is designed to give us more time to do more things we want to .. or make what we must do easier. Take the case of the electric razor, for instance. Mine woke up broken one. morning a couple of weeks ago and had to be sent off for repairs. We had used the electric faes trimmer long enough to where it was a chore and a bother to shave with it. All that precious time wasted every morning, cutting off those whiskers. And that old razor just seemed to take longer and longer and get more uncomfortable by the day in its appointed rounds of shav- ing our kisser. Two weeks with a blade razor makes us long once again for the electric replacement. The comfort of not being able to nick our chin or slice our throat was a com- fort we had become so accustomed to, it was taken for granted. When the ,electric razor comes back, we ought to get up a big "welcome home" party. Our neck will be most pleased since it is taking the roughest beating from the substitute blade. Congratulations.

IONE GRACE, Overstreet It In The Star - KITCHEN CHATTER By The Florida Power Corporation Spaghetti with meat sauce is a very popular dish in this area. Here is a "quickie" sauce to be pre. pared on electric range for com- plete success. Serve this sauce with spaghetti, garlic bread and tossed green salad. SPAGHETTI SAUCE 1 can (46 oz.) tomato juice 2 cans (6 oz.) tomato paste 1 small onion, chopped or sliced thin 2 cloves of garlic, sliced 2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil 1 tablespoon salt or more to taste 1 teaspoon black pepper 2 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon oregano 1 teaspoon dry or sprig of fresh basil, optional 1 teaspoon dry or sprig of fresh mint, optional Into a large pot (1- gal.) add oil and place over low heat and brown garlic and onion. Add the tomato / paste and stir until it thins out and begins to bubble. At this point, add the tomato juice and raise temperature and stir until substance has dissolved. Raise temperature to a boiling point. During this boiling up period, add other ingredients of salt, pepper, sugar, oregano and others, if available. Arriving at the boiling point with the addition of prepared meat balls, turn down heat to a simmer and cook for the balance of 1-% to 2 hours with a lid. Be sure to stir frequently, to avoid sticking and burning, with wooden spoon. Variation: Also bits of chuck or round may be substituted for pre. pared meat balls.

See Doctor First Then Your S. S. Agent "If you become disabled, see your doctor first and then contact l a social security representative," David Robinson, Social Security Field Representative for Gulf County, said today. When people fail to get in touch with the .social security office soon after becoming disabled, they risk losing money. If you were disabled more than 18 months ago, each month you delay filing a disability claim could cost you a month's so- cial security check. The disability law has been changed in recent years and some who could not qualify in the past may now be eligible. This is es- pecially true for the young disa- bled before age 31, you don't need as much work as you did in the past to qualify. In addition, the duration of your disability does not need to be as long as in the past. If you are disabled for as short a period as a year, or your doctor says you will be disabled for as much as a year, you may be eligible. "Vietnam ve- terans who are disabled should ask about this law," Robinson conclud- ed. For more information, residents of this area should contact the Panama City Sodial Security Office. The office is located at 1316 Har- rison Ave., and is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 to 4:30, except on national holidays. Toll free phone-service is available by dialing "0" and asking for WX- 4444. --- -9' :-Specials for Febo . S21 throjqgh 26- RICH and SONS' IGA - PORT ST.
