TEN CENTS A COPY City Budgeting $2,230,692 City tax payers will be called on to pay $24,000 more in taxes during the fiscal year in the new budget drawn up in its final stages this past Friday in a special meeting. While the tax take is increased, the City has established the same mill rate as last year-7.5. The new budget will be increased over last years item r .. $45,838 for a total of $2,230,692.00. The General Fund will require $654,364.00 for ..j,: Water and Sewer Fund, $260,230.00 and the Wastewater Treatment Plant, $1,316,098.00 for a grand .total of $2,230,692.00.

Re' en-e ..:r i last year, but the indbm6ewas received after the budget was *. '-:9 r and was not included. All of this& increase '. :'. the small increase in the overall budget is due to the fact the City carried over i'7 in cash last year and will hqve only $27,132 left at the end of -: -. r'.- budget year.

Two Hurt As Car and Truck Collide On 98 Two men and three young boys narrowly escaped death in an accident Friday after- noon involving a log truck,. and a sedan. The accident occurred on Highway 98 at St. Joe Beach when a log truck driven by Earlie Anderson about 60, of Port St. Joe turned over on the sedan driven by Jerry Glen Thornton, 33, of Colquitt Ga. Thornton had three young children in the car with him and one, his son, Tyler Thornton age three was taken to Municipal Hospital with a brain concussion, according to Highway Pa- trolman Al Harrison. Thornton was treated for minor injuries and Anderson was taken to Municipal Hospital for treatment of shock and other injuries. Anderson was trapped in the truck for about 45 minutes after the accident before he could be cut out. The Port St. Joe Volunteer Fire Depart- ment stood by until Anderson was removed in case of fire from the diesel fuel leaking out of the truck. According to Trooper Har- rison, both vehicles were travelling east on U.S. 98 when Anderson started to pass the automobile. Thorn- ton then attempted a left turn, pulling into the path of the truck. Anderson hit his brakes causing his trailer load of logs to swing around and overturn his truck. The load of logs slammed against the side of the Thornton auto, caving it in. Trooper Harrison said charges of improper change of lanes will be filed against Thornton.

Bargaining .Time It's bargaining time in Port St. Joe and reports filtering out of the sessions between the town's largest employer, St. Joe Paper Company and the firm's operating unions, are that, thus far, both sides have agreed to disagree. While this is a normal process in collective bargaining, the first thought which comes to the mind of those not directly ir.'.-' ] .but al- most totally 'dependent on the out- ,come of the 1,r;.(nin, is the me- mory of the disastrous b.t.,,..r,'n strike which *,. .n'. 1 in the last dis- agreement over bargaining.

Bend Boating Due Some Navigational Improvements l,'.:ri_ safety along the "Big Bend" on Florida's west coast will soon be improved by installation of a system of navigational aids along a stretch of some 70 miles, an announcement from U.S. Sen. Lawton Chiles' office said this week. Six new steel-type aids will tie 'in with three existing buoys to provide navigational assistance to boaters between Cedar Keys and St. George Sound off Carrabelle. The ,nine aids .encompass a dis- tance of 110 nautical miles called by boaters the "lone- some leg." Sen. Chiles was notified of approval of the project by the Coast Guard. He had been working on it for about a year since learning of the need from Red Marston, *-:.i:.:I: editor of the St. Petersburg Times, According to the Coast Guard, the aids will be located eight to 10. miles offshore in 18 to 23 feet of water with 10 to 14 miles between them. They will be on five-pile steel dolphins, 16 feet above water, will be lighted and will display red triangular day- marks. They will be visible' for up to seven miles at night under good weather condi- tions. Increased structural design is required to accommodate the offshore weather and sea conditions of the Gulf of Mexico, the Coast Guard told Sen. Chiles. Installation bids are being received and the schedule for :;, .'...q : of the project will be announced later. A SALUTE TO LABOR WE WISH TO PAY TRIBUTE TO THE FINE LABOR FORCE AT WORK IN AMERICA.

Amen, J;,". ..r Gr ., :, Devane Williams, editor of the Holmes r.,,t.. Advertiser, did something not many are 'doing these days he congratulated the Holmes ..',,. ,. School Board for increasing taxes to pro- perly fund the school "operation. One of the foibles of the State taking over all these expensive operations. is coming home to roost now. Whern the State takes over the finan- cial i-2 .:-.. .i1itf: they also make the.rules by which the game is played. As editor Williams pointed out, the State now has a new formula for financing schools. The "catcher" is the "cost-of-living factor" which makes one county eligible for more money than others. Williams points out the state has pegged Holmes' "cost-of-living factor" .at 91% (as they did with Gulf County, also) while Dade County has a factor of 110%. This means Holmes (and Gulf) gets $526.89 per student from the State of Florida while Dade gets $584.79. per student due to this "cost-of-living factor". The counties are left up to their own devices to raise the rest. Williams praised his Board be- ,cause they dared to do so in spite of sure-to- come opposition. The Lucedale, Miss., "George County Times" reports a sign in a window of a super market which advertises T-bones for 59c a pound. But in smaller letters at the bottom, it says: With Meat, $2.08 a pound. * THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. THURSDAY, AUGUST 30, 1973 I-.~,ii~,.

Hunters will be allowed a total of 100 points per day M...,. the ducks will be assigned a poin-t valve i ::..-1,r -:to species. Point values are as follows: 100 points-Fulvous tree duck; 70 points-Florida duck, black duck, wood duck, hen mallard, hooded mergan- ser. Ten points-Blue winged teal, scaup, sea ducks, baldpate and mergansers other than the hooded mer- ganser. Twenty-five points-all other ducks not listed above except no open season on Canvasback and redhead. There will be no open season for goose hunting, however, hunters will be allowed a bag limit of 15 coot per day with a total possession of 30 after the first day of hunting. According to the Commis- sion the point system encour- ages selective shooting and provides a measure of protection to the species that are in low supply. The real key to successful hunting under the point system is the ability to identify waterfowl and hunters are urged to brush up on their duck identification due to changes in the 1973-74 noint system THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla.
