three, operating unions of St. Joe
Paper oinpany announced their
members hadd voted to\ end the
longest strike ever called against
the paper manufacturing firm
after duration of seven months,
, two weeks and two days.
Unin members voted better
than three to one to end the mar-
athon strike which seemed stale-
mated, and go back to work. The
vote of membership was called
after a four day meeting Thurs-
day through Sunday, the week
prior to the vote. At the meet-
ing, St. Joe Paper offered what
they termed their "final offer"
and the unions voted to accept.
The unions held up announce-
ment of their decision to return
to work until all three unions
had finished balloting for they
had 'agreed hot to return to work
unless all three unions agreed.
It' appeared the union mem-
bers were as happy as anyone
that the long ordeal was over,

for they iinmpdiately formed a
long parade, of vehicles,, honking
their horns, !and winding their
way. from the Union Hall on
Sixth Street to 'St." Jo, Paper
Company's office building on
First Street. On their way, the
parade swung by St. Joe Paper's
entrances and picked ip their
pickets, which was the first indi-
cation to outsiders that the strike
was over.
St. Joe Paper's Vice-President
Tom S. Coldewey; Personnel Di-
rector, John Howard and Assist-
ant Director of Industrial Rela-
tions, Charles Norton, met the
union officials and retired to the
Conference Room where'the offi-
cial signing of the contract docu-
.ments took -place at -7:15. --
While the strike against the
paper company was Port St. Joe's
longest work stopage, it was also
one of the most peaceful. There.
were .no acts.of violence reported
and- generally amiable relations
were maintained throughout the
strike by union and management
people. -' "
No true figures are availp le
as to what the strike cost, .but
back in February, the figure had
A" 1%


risen to an estimated $25 million
figure was thought to be the
economic loss to the area.
No figures or information have
beett released on what the new
contract contains, except that the
package contained an 87c per
hour increase in wages and
fringe benefits. Both the unions
and company say this is the lar-
gest package ever given by St.
Joe Paper -at a contract bargain-
ing. The new contract will be for
a period of 16 months.
Workers began reporting back
to the mill Monday morning for
the long process of getting the
mill to operating once again.
Maintenance and electrical work-
ers are back on the job repairing
portions of the machinery which
have deteriorated in the nearly.
eight months of lying idle. Esti-
mates are that production, will
get underway within three to
four weeks.
Just the settlement of the
strike has brought about a tre-
mendous change in attitudes in
Port St. Joe. Overnight, an atti-
tude o gloom has changed to
' one of eagerness and expecta-
Sition.

League for Older Boys This Year


It's Diixe Youth Baseball time
in Port St. Joe again, and some.
thing new has been added to the
program this year.
In addition to the 12 teams
for boys age eight through 12,
,a new Diixe Boys League will
provide organized baseball for
boys 13 and 14. The new league
will open this spring fielding
four teams.
Ted Cannon, president of the
League said try-outs have been
scheduled for Monday afternoon
for both leagues at the park on
Tenth Street. All boys must
have their birth certificates at
the try-outs in order to partici-


pate. Boys playing in- Dixie
Youth League cannot reach their
13th birthday before August 1,
and Dixie Boys participants must
not be 15 before August' 1.
Other items on the. league
schedule include player selection
on March 30 and the annual
chicken barbecue on April 1.
Cannon said the league ,needs
to do a good job on the barbecue
this year, since insurance re-
quirements for the new league
will strain the league's budget
to the breaking point. Tickets
are already on sale for the bar-
becue at $1.50 each.
The playing season begins on
April 10..

At Long Last


At long last, the St. Joe Paper Company strike is
over. There for a while, it began to look as if it was an im-
possible situation and that the unions and company would
continue to agree to disagree from now on. But, finally,
after seven months and 13 days it's all over and. time now
to begin the business of rebuilding all that has been lost.
The strike proved two things conclusively.
First, it proved we have some "very stubborn people
in Port St. Joe who stand by their convictions. Neither
side of the question wavered at any time in their stand and
each side-both unions and company-were prepared to
stand by their principles till ice water gushed from Old
Faithful, if it took it. Port St. Joe has expressed its
pride in many other areas in no uncertain terms, so one
could expect nothing less in this strike if not pride and
purpose of convictions to come to the surface.
Secondly, the strike proved that Port St. Joe has its
share of gentlemen. This is important. 'It would probably
.be hard to find another instance in these United States, of

County Commissioner Silas Player had a good idea
recently when he favored asking the Corps of Engineers
to place their dredge spoilage along the West side of High-
way 98 in the Highland View area. It may have been only
wishful thinking on his part then, but recently the idea
'has. begun to grow and has now progressed to the point
where 'the Corps representatives want to meet with the
County Commission and discuss the matter,
Twenty years ago there was a sizeable strip of land
between Highway 98 and St. Joseph Bay, but it has long
since eroded away probably into the Gulf County Canal
which has to be dredged periodically. The dredged sand
.could very easily be pumped back along the highway
right of way and' would rebuild the eroded land as well
as protect the highway and the property owners lying ad-'
jacent to the east side of the road bed. The beautiful part
of the idea is. that it would cost no person or agency any
money. The dredging must be performed anyhow and it
could ve e easily serve the double purpose of bringing
the channel back to proper depth and protect a U. S. high-





Too Late To Classify

lorida no doubt has more
tourist attractions than any
other state and most of them are'
doing a land office business this
season. A mild winter, coupled
with the opening of Disney
World, had a lot to do with the
increase in business.
Many attraction owners fear-
ed that Disney World would cut
attendance. But just the oppo-
site has happened. Most report
results of the best season in their
history with attendance records
being broken regularly and pros-
pects for the future looking most
promising.
Most tourists are not content
to see Disney World and then
return home. They plan in ad-
vance to spend enough time in
the state to enjoy the climate,
the beaches and to visit other at-
tractions.
Dick Pope, developer of Cy-
press Gardens, was an early and
confident booster of Disney
World when the plans for its de-


velopment were first announced.
Pope, the most successful of all
Florida attraction owners, realiz-
ed the resulting increase in the
state's tourist business and im-
mediately made plans to expand
his operation to the tune of
several million dollars. It has
paid off handsomely and he re-
ports business way beyond his
original expectations.
The difficulties Disney World
experienced during -holiday per-
iods, when roads were jammed
with traffic and it was necessary
to close down when crowds over-
whelmed the facilities, became
one reason for the increased at-
tendance at other attractions in
the general area.
, The gigantic size of Disney
World, along with transportation
problems and immense crowds,
also does not appeal to all tour-
ists. Many prefer the smaller at-
tractions not so crowded and
less expensive.
Well established attractions,

a- ----UIA,


a strike lasting seven months without a single instance of
violence or destruction. To us, this is the most commend-
able thing that could be said for either the unions or St.'
Joe Paper Company.
The strike has been agony for everyone. Those of us
caught in- the middle, suffered the hardships of a strike
with no hope for relief from any source or even increased
benefits after the strike was over. While we tend only
to see our own personal side of a matter, we have no doubt
but what the strike was just as agonizing, just as paralyz-
ing and just as disagreeable with the strikers and the
company.
True, we can't call back the seven months and 18
days. If we. could, they may have been spent different.
But that holds true with everything. As the old saying
goes, "there's no use crying over spilled milk now". The
only thing left to do is to go right back to work; go right
back to supporting our town and let the world know that
ultimately, the people of Port St. Joe are unanimously
in favor of one thing a better life for our people.

way.
We'd like to see the County Commission go a step
further and bulkhead in the Highland View area from
Palm Point back to the Gulf County Canal. Port St. Joe
continues to need deep water port facilities to serve other
than private needs. In the past, private dock owners
have allowed traffic over their facilities other than their
own. This situation could change at any time with the
owner's needs becoming too great to share with others.
The Highland View area would be a perfect spot to
construct public docks. Barges could swing out of the
Canal with up-river traffic and load right onto ocean-going
vessels. The area is just a short distance from the ship-
ping channel in the Bay and would just be an ideal spot
for development of a first class harbor.
Establishing a bulkhead line would be the first step
toward this future utilization of a potential asset and we
would like to see the Commissipn take the steps necessary
to create this bulkhead linb. '

such as Silver Springs, Rainbow

ineland have continued to pros-
per. State parks also have their
appeal and are being used more
extensively by both residents and
visitors. Beaches also have their
appeal and continue to draw
good crowds.
No Vacancy signs are out all
over the state and we can ex-
pect even larger crowds of tour-
ists in the years to come. To
meet the challenge we must pro-
vide more accommodations, bet-
ter transportation methods and
other aids to the visitors.
Attractions and other busines-
ses that depend on tourism must
join in making the tourists ex-
perience enjoyable. Courtesy is
imperative. No traveler enjoys
a surly service station atten-
dant, waitress or room clerk.
Helpfulness and consideration of
our tourists will do much to
keep them happy and insure
their returning again.

asset to the tourist business of

Gulf Co. Gets

Additional Funds

TALLAHASSEE Fifty one
Florida schools districts are shar-
ing an extra $3.7 million during
March to cover expenses from in-
creased pupil attendance this year,
Comproller Fred 0. (Bud) Dickin-
son said today.
The funds are in addition to the
regular monthly Minimum Founda-
tion Program allocation.
Dickinson explained that Mini-
mum Foundation funds for opera-
tion of grades kindergarten
through 12 of public schools are
distributed according to each dis-
trict's average daily attendance the
previous year.
When current average daily at-
tendance is determined during the
first two months of the present
school year, the funds are recalcu-
lated to cover additional enroll-
ment. dulf County received an ad-
ditional $45.716.00.
The "recalculation funds" were
.sent during January, February and
March to the 51 counties with in-
creased attendance, the Comptrol-
ler said.
March marks the final recalcula-
tion of the school fund allotment
for the 1971-72 school year.


469 'Pedestrians

Die In Florida

A record 469 pedestrians died on
,Florida's streets and highways last
year which was an all time high
the Florida Highway Patrol said
today.
Patrol records show an increase
of 11 percent in pedestrian Mali-
ties in 1971 as compared to the
previous year.
Concerned over the increase, Co-
lonel Eldrige Beach, director of
the Patrol said. "No matter who has
the right-of-way, pedestrians are al-
most certain to be killed or in-
jured when struck by an autome-
bile, The human body is no match
for an auto."
The Patrol urged pedestrians to
"walk as if their life depends' on
it" by walking on the left shoulder
facing traffic, cross at intersections
if in urban areas and wear light
colored clothing or carry a flash-
light when walking at night.
"Drivers should remember to be
especially alert for small children
and elderly people walking along
or attempting to cross the road-
way," concluded Beach.

You couldn't ask for more good news than we have
been able to publish during the past two weeks. First
there was the winning of the State Class AA basketball
championship. Then there was the settling of the St. Joe
Paper Company strike. Those who say the newspa-
pers print only bad news should be a little pleased now.
*


We would have added the selection of George Wallace
as the presidential preference of the people of Florida to
that list of good news, but there are those who don't con-
sider that good news. Most notable of those who fall in
this latter category is one Senator Ed Muskie. He wasn't
'at all happy over the situation. As a matter of fact, he
said on national TV that he wasn't happy about the mat-
ter. He even went so far as to say you were crazy for not
casting your vote for Ed Muskie.
I'm glad Muskie made his outburst. He proved that
the people of Florida made the right move when they Xre-
iected him. There might have been a doubt in my mind
had he not offered decisive proof of our political sophis-
tication.
Senator Ed Gurney, a Republican, pretty well summed
it up when he said Thursday: "My prediction is Gov. Wal-
lace will get strong support in many other states outside
the South. Then maybe Sen. Muskie and the national Dem-
ocratic party will get the message that millions of sound,
conservative Democrats want their party to get out of its
left-wing rut". That's it, exactly, Senator.
*
The "I wish I'd said that" department:
In February, Senator George McGovern sent the fol-
lowing telegram to Edward Ball of Jacksonville:
"Dear Mr. Ball, your position in that of your com-
pany in the strike at Port St. Joe is totally unreasonable.
This tragic situation as you know, was caused by your ef-
forts' to farce many of these men from their jobs. It is
merely the latest example of your attempts to kill the labor
movement in the State of Florida. I find. it deplorable
,but unfortunately fully consistent with your past record.
Sincerely, George McGovern, United States Senate".
Mr. Ball answered back: "Dear Senator McGovern.
Your telegram of February tenth received. It illustrates
fully your total ignorance in most matters you pursue.
As you say, the strike at Port St. Joe, Florida is a tragic
situation for the innocent people who have been misled
into striking. But the greatest tragedy imaginable to the
United States of America would be your election to the
position you now seek. Edward Ball".
That, dear friends, is what is known as the perfect
squelch.
*
It's gratifying to know that the people of Gulf County
arid of the State of Florida are interested in allowing
prayers to be said in school. No doubt if those same peo-
ple who voted their convictions would lend actions to their
expressions by being in church worshipping-and praying
-each and every Sunday there would be no need for the
Straw Ballot in the first place. There would be prayer
in school and no thought about taking it out.
-* *
There's nothing I like more than to help out a friend
in trouble and I have a friend who has much trouble. My
friend Bill Barlow has two daughters who have a pony.
The pony is out of hay and Bill's regular supplier is also
out. It seems the hay season has passed and many sup-
pliers are running out. So, you can, Bill has a problem. I
offered to solve that problem by giving Bill permission to
cut my grass and rake up the cuttings to supply his daugh-
ters' horse with hay. But Bill still has problems, because
I don't think my yard will produce enough hay to sup-
ply his horse. Now, we're asking you to come to Bill's aid
also. If you have a yard in which the grass grows freely,
how about calling Bill and giving him permission to cut
your yard also .. to get the hay.

First Baptist Church Presenting
Film On Worship Inside Russia


The First Baptist Church will
present a gripping motion picture,
"To Russia With Love", Tuesday,
March 28 at 7:30 p.m. This picture,
produced by Underground Evange-
lism, gives the audience an oppor-
tunity to view some of the excit-
ing wor being done behind the
Iron Curtainl by Underground
Evangelism, a gospel outreach to'
people of the Communist world.
A full color film that lets one
travel with a "secret" courier, wor-
ship with Russian "underground"
believers and share their joy of
receiving Bibles. See life in Russia
today and meet its people. The
public is invited. A nursery will
be provided for nursery age chil-
dren.
The new 35-minute full color
motion picture is an Underground
Evangelism production. It graphi-
cally portrays life for many thou-
sands of Christians .in communist
lands today. Many of the shots
were filmed inside Russia and give
eloquent testimony to the fact that
hunger for the Word of God is very
real in that land of multiple closed
churches.
Rev. L. Joe Bass, director of the
missionary organization Under-
ground Evangelism, says, "This

film was one of the most difficult
projects we have ever undertaken.
In our first attempt to put it toge-
ther we ran into a number of prob-1
lems. The second was highly suc-
cessful, and today we are justifiab-
ly proud of the picture. Premiere
performances across the nation
have resulted in a high degree of
interest among viewing audiences
and much praise from the critics".
