COUNTY COMMISSION

WXWAHITCHKA, FLA.
January 1,. 1986
The Board Of County Commissioners
of Qulf County, Florida, met this date
in special session. The following mem-
bers were present: E. C. Harden, Sr.,
Chairman, J. C. Price, Geo. W. Coop-
er, T. D. Whittled, and Parker G.
Hart. The Clerk, Sheriff, and Attor-
ney were present.
The meeting came to order at 7:00
o'clock, p.- in.
TheChairman announced that this
meeting is called for the purpose of
considering dividing voting precinct
No. 9; to hear recommendations from
the Gulf County Health Center Com-
mittee, and to attend to any other
business, that may come before the
Board.
After a .discussion with reference
to dividing Precinct No. 9 into two
precincts and other changes that are
necessary, Commn. Hort offered the
following resolution and moved for
its adoption, seconded by Commmis-
'sioner Whitfleld and 'upon vote was
unanimously adopted:
RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, the Supervison of Reg-
istration. of Gulf County, Florida,
has recommended that the Board of
County Commn issioners of Gulf Coun-
ty -create a new polling place and pre-'
cinct in* Gulf County, and that pre-


cinct 6 be enlarged to include those
residence in White City east of High-
way 71; and
WHEREAS, the Board of County
Commissionerers have investigated and
find that those residents in White City
residing on the east sde of High-
way 71 can vote more conveniently in
the White City precinct; and that
Precinct No. 9 creates a hardship on
the electors and poll holders as a

THE RIGHT TO KNOW
Florida's "the people's-right-to-know-law"
has gone into effect.
How good application of the law is will be
clear as the year progresses.
At present it represents the effort of the,
Florida Bar Association, hte Florida Associated
Dailies and other American-minded groups to
strip some of the secrecy away from state agen-
cies, boards and commissions.
It proposes to give the people access to the
rules and regulations adopted by the specified
boards.
The general intent of the law is to require
every rule or regulation adopted by any state
department, board or commission after : I :..


1, 1956, and affecting the rights of the public,
be filed with the .Secretary of State's office be-
fore it can become effective.
Any rule or regulation adopted before Jan-
uary 1, 1956 shall not be in effect until it has
been filed with the Secretary of State.
Only those rules and regulations affecting
the rights of the public are covered by the
new law.
This statute is not .just another law. It
results from a growing attitude of personal pow-
er among officeholders, bureaucrats and clerks
from Washington down to the country con-
stable's roll-top desk.
Once in office some officials forget that
they are the people's servants. They become
infected with a paternalism-complex. From
their own self-created bureaucratic Olympus
they decide what they will or will not permit
the people to know about their business.
The people can begin to fear for the cqn-
tinuance of the democratic processes when pub-
lic agents arrogate to themselves the right to
mask their activities behind a wall of secrecy."
Citizens of a self-governing society must
have the right, not. an official gratuity, to ex-
amine and i'- : --' ". the conduct of its affairs,
only to those i:.-.-"';-_.. ,imposed by the
most urgent public i. .
The new state law is a step toward estab-
lishing and enforcing that right.
The legislature, should round out the law's
scope by making it -. ';.-:..1.- to all strata of
government in the state municipal and what-
have-you. The Miami Herald

LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR

Editor The Star,
Port St. Joe, .Florida.
Dear Sir:
An incident happened to me last
week that has changed my line of
thought about -our police depart-
ment. I had not needed them be-
fore, and maybe a lot more people
whom I have heard criticizing them
'will have a 'different feeling after
hearing of my experience.
Before leaving my store each
day I always check the back door
and window latches and had never
found, them tampered with until
last Thursday. I noticed the latch
on the rest room window was open,
and I knew right then that some-
ope had set the stage to 'break in
that night, so I showed it to Jeff
'and Mrs. IVaddox, and then I called
in the police department and told
them I needed their help. Police-
man Kelley and Jeff and me set
a stage also for act 2 of the' show,
and before too long two juveniles
came down the alley and stopped
at the back window to see if the
latch'was still open, and on finding
it just as. they left it, '. started
their act, but was flushed twice
by car lights shining down the
alley. Kelly was standing by 'or'
was -J D: the block, I was park-
ed in my truck and Jeff behind a
telephone pole, both of us watch-
ing the -show, then ,i struck,
and the boys confessed the whole
plot.
I have come to the conclusion
that if the :-.), i department had
a. little cooperation from people
who see something suspicious, in-
stead of criticism for not 'being
able to be everywhere at the same
time and see t.,. ,-.,,,: they
could accomplish 'much more. I
sure found them ready and will -
ing to help me, and of course now
I can see -that they most likely
would not have caught these burg
lars had they not have had a httle
cooperation from me.
Yours truly,
C. W. Long
Dear Editor.
I want to commend the: :'.- -
Department of Gulf County for the
help they render in funeral pro-
cessions. It was my duty to lead
a procession last Sunday that in-
volved about 35 miles pf travel,
and Sheriff. Parker xery graciously
went ahead of us in the official
car. Also, the Police Department
of Wewahitchka met us at the city
limits and conducted the process-
ion through the corporate limits
of that city.-
I am sure that other ministers
and funeral directors will agree
that this cooperation on the part of
law enforcement .agencies is very
helpful and much appreciated.
Yours very truly,
Lowell Adams

nounced his candidacy for State
Senate for the 25th Senatorial
District, comprising Bay, Gulf,

ties.
In announcing, Hansford said,
"I believe that I can serve fairly
and impartially the people of the
25th Senatorial District and each
area thereof. Our District has
needs which must be met square-
ly and resolutely, and, if elected,
it would be my purpose to work
closely with the people of each
area and their 'elected officials
in an earnest effort to accom-
plish these needs and to assist
in the further grov h and develop-
ment of our District."
Hansford, 45, was born on a
farm near Omega, Ga., and re-
ceived his early education in Flor-
ida schools. Graduating from Flor-
ida Military Academy with honors,
he served as Captain of the Aca-
demy's football team in his sen-
ior year. Hansford furthered his
education at John B. Stetson Uni-
versity, winning letters in two maj-
or sports. He is a life member of
Stetson University's "S" Club.
After serving in the -Army (69th
Infantry Division),. three years
overseas, Hansford re-entered col-
lege and received his law degree

lege. Following graduation, he ac-
cepted the position as 'attorney
advisor in the iJ ,:,,V.' .r of Jus-
-tice, Washington, D. C., for two
years. He then resigned his pos-
'ition and returned to Florida and
served in the 1953 session of the
legislature as legal assistant to the


ire-' "r-7f- L


VT,


President of the Senate and legal
advisor to the Senate Body,
At the conclusion of the 1953
session, Hansford came to Panama

mediate past captain of the Pana-
ma City Quarterback Club, Amer-
ican Legion, member of the legis-
lative committee of the Florida
Bar, and the St. Andrew Bay Rod

father of three daughters. T.he
family resides at 1008 Harrison
Avenue.
Hansford listed nine principal
planks as ,the basis of his plat-
form, He-
1. Opposes de-segregation in
any form.
2. Favors preservation of our
natural resources -on farm, in

terest of the 25th Senatorial Dis-


tlict.
