ETAOIN SHRDLU

by WESL-EY R. RAMSEY

Audi'ey has come sneaking in
- with a coy-like manner of other
damsels and, like other damsels
will. stir up a mess of fuss along
the Louisiana coast.
It must have been a man that
thought "of giving hurricanes the
names of women. After all who
can cause the most ruccus with
the least provocation than a wo-
man it it isn'tt a hurricane?

With Audrey we get rain. The
perfect weather for those taking
their vacation from the St. Joe Pa-
per Company now that it is shut
,'Jno for two weeks.
Nothing livens up a vacation like
having to stay indoors while the
precipitation falls. A good excuse
for the men to do nothing but re-
lax and catch up on their sleeping
and reading,
The paper co.mp.tiy should have
a thoroughly rested crew to start
work-on July S.

We read the other day where a
104-year-old man beat up his 82-
year-old wife because he was jea-
lous of her. We hope that by the
[imn we are 104 we will have the
inclination to get jealous if the
occasion arises. It'll be a sight
better feeling than sitting or lying
all day a- semi-invalid like many
old people .are.

We sea where Eisenhower is re-
commending that the states of the
nation assume some of the- sed?-
Svices now -offered by the Federal
government to reduce federal
spending.
AIke may be a Republican, but.
we agree with him. The tax dollar
would come back with more value
than'it does after it has beeh wa-
Sered down by Government circles
before it is spent ioL'ain.

.Th city is laying water and
sewer laterals on Long Avenue be-
yond 16th Street in preparation to
the repaiung. of Long Avenue.
One of the gripes here. has been
that as soon as a new street is
built it is dug up again to run a
* sewer or water line.
-.Atter Long Avenue is repaved
this, situation shouldn't arise now
with the city taking steps to pro-
vide these services beforehand.

"Pursuant to resolution adopted
by the Gulf County Continuing Edu-
cation Council October 15, 1956,
which reads as follows:
"That this Committee recom-
mends to the Council that there
be a re-assessment of all real
real property and that all person-
all personal property, tangible
and intangible, be placed on the
tax rolls in accordance with law,
and that a Committee of nine
citizens be appointed to offer
aid, advice and assistance to the
Tax Assessor in re-evaluating the
County tax structure and increas-
ing the total valuation; that if
the Tax Assessor's re-evaluation
and increase in valuation is ap-
proved by this Committee, then
this Committee appear before the
County Commiss.oners when sit-
ting as a Board of Equalization
to assist the Tax Assessor in de-
tending any position or valua-
tions which may be questioned."
Your Chairman of the Finance
Coumitnitte-, .tece to -sme nine
i 9) citizens of Gilf County, Flor-
ida, to this Committee. Its member-
ship to represent all organizations
of the County .'. your Chairman
appointed the following eight men:
George G. Tapper, Chairman; M.
P. Tomlinson J. R. Smith, Dave
Gaskin, Max Kilbourn, J. V. Dowd,
H. H. Saunders and F. B. Smith.
"On November 27, 1956, this
Committee met with the Tax As-
sessor, Sammy Patrick, and out-
lined to him the desires of the full
Council and requested his coopera-
tion, which he assured us would be
forthcoming.
"On December 10. 1956, your
Committee reported to the full
Council of its meeting with Mr. Pat-
rick ahd'"outlined its recommenda-
tions to the Tax Assessor.
"Since our last report to the full
Council, a Sub-Committee has met
numerous times with Mr. Patrick
in an effort to ascertain his feel-
ings in carrying out the recommen-
dations of this Committee. The Sub-
committee prepared a plat of the
business district of Port St. Joe
using a one hundred percent valua-
tion for all real property in this
area and presented it to Mr. Pat-
rick for lis comments and advised
Mr. Patrick itf he wished for us to
continue this work we would be
glad to do so which would incom-
pass the entire County. Mr. Patrick
did not request us to continue with
our valuations so we felt this pro-
cedure was useless.
"The Sub-committee met with
Mr. Patrick in Wewahitchka at his
office on June 19 in an effort to
determine just what plans he had'
developed in working out re-assess-
ments. The Committee was advised
that it was his intention to Increase
the valuation of all real property
by one-third of its present assess-
ment, making, no effort to equalize
the assessments throughout the
County. A number of questions
were directed to Mr. Patrick re-
garding personal property tax re-
turns as to his attitude and inten-
tion would be on those citizens who
filed a personal property tax re-
turn and those who did not. The
Sub-committee was left with the
impression that Mr. Patrick would
place on the tax rolls, all of those
personal property returns that citi-
zens of Gulf County filed and no
action would be taken on those
citizens who did not file returns.
"It Il the feeling of your Com-
mittee that assessment in Gulf
County will be increased by one-

Sometimes you hear about peo-

saw "No trespassin' signs.

We kept goin' 'til we came to

a lot of meaning in that little
sign. Forbidding people to do
things can make unfriendly

fering with things like fishing or
having a cool glass of ale with
real fine people.

Sikes Objects To
Civil Rights Measure

Washington, D. C., Congressman
Bob Sikes has contacted Governor
Leroy Collins and Acting Director
of Flirida Department of Public
Welfare, Frank Craft, urging that
they give serious consideration to
Florida's participation in the Ag-
riculture Department's Commodi-
ties Food Distribution plan which
has been in operation for about
four years.
rSikes said, "Florida is one of the
nine states not participating in this
plan. I feel it would be very bene-
ficial to our state if the proper ma-
chinery can be established to inau-
gurate and administer the pro-
gram."
Under this program all persons
receiving public assistance pay-
ments from the state would be eli-
gible for free food. In addition nee-
dy faniile.; recommended by pri-
vate welfare agencies can be ap-
proved for receipt of free food if
certified by the State organization.
The types of food available will
vary *from time to time, depending
upon the surplus commodities in-
ventory of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. "There are
many persons in our state who are
undernourished and to whom this
program would literally be a god-
send", Sikes said.

From the Dove Creek Press,
Dove Creek, Colorado: Almost all
of us spend some part of our day
writh advertising watching TV,
listening to radio, reading newspa-
pers, magazines and billboards.
-We are consciously aware of prod-
acts and services via advertising.
But how, actually, does advertis-
ing benefit you and me? What does
It do for us and what is our part
in it?
Advertising provides tnforma-
tion ... it tells us where we can
purchase the things we want and
how much our purchase will cost.
From the comfort of our living
rooms, we can compare brands
and prices, learn of a product's
durability, new features and cost
of operation. So when we go out
to shop, we are the best prepared
shoppers in the world with the
widest choice of brands.
Advertising is a chain reaction
that stimulates demand and cre-
ates progress. By spreading the
story of a new or beliter product,
a market is created for which
manufacturers compete. Cheaper,
more efficient production methods
are developed and prices go down,

Moral: Yesterday's looks and features

are no bargain at any price!

No car is a bargain if it's obsolete in styling and engineering features. And
the Swept-Wing Dodge actually obsoletes other cars in its field with its low, low
look of tomorrow and revolutionary advances like Torsion-Aire Ride, Push-
Button TorqueFlite and Total-Contact Brakes. So don't get "bargain-talked"
into yesterday's styling and features. The same money buys the car that's years
ahead.'See your Dodge dealer. Join the swing to the Swept-Wing Dodge.

A Lesson In Sportsmanship
Those young boys associated with the Little Boys Base-
ball and Babe Ruth Baseball Leagues here in Port St. Joe are
soaking up their training in sportsmanship, which is the primary
objective of the programs.
We would venture to say that they have learned more
in the line of sportsmanship than their adult mentors -- not
just part of them, but all of them. Granted some are worse than
others.,
We hesitate to hurl brickbats at this sacrificing few who
have given of their team for this worthy cause. But nonetheless,
we believe it is doing more harm than good for the managers,
officials and sponsors of the league teams to be forever looking
toward the winning side of their team. Of course it is nice to win,
but, as we understand it, winning isn't the primary objective of
the league. Certainly the winning of a game isn't important
enough for the adult workers in the leagues to show their back-
sides in front of the children they are trying to teach. We have
been guilty and so has practically other adult connected with
the league. Why, do you know that two of the Little Boys Base-
ball games have been played under protest by managers? This
is a deplorable thing.
We don't know how the situation stands now, but up until

Over 300,000 Americans

in Gulf County who are 21 years of
age or older," says H. K. Smith,
campaign chairman for the North
Florida Chapter. Multiple Sslerosis
Society, "and, if each one sends
only one dollar to fight the worlds
most mysterious diease.. we will
soon have Multiple Sclerosis whip-
ped. It now afflicts 300,000 Amer-
icans."
Smith made this statement in an
area appeal for funds this week and
urged citizens to "send your con-
tribution to Multiple Sclerosis, c/o
Postmaster, Jacksonville. Florida."
Multiple Sclerosis, a crippling di-
sease which affects the central

Sikes continued by saying, "I in-

compli hsnothing but added ten-
sion, misunderstanding and misr
trust between the races. We have
had attempts at refrom by admin-
istrative edict and refrom through
a new phenomenon-legislation
from the courts. Ifthis is an at-
tempt at refrom by congressional
mandate, we have had too much of
that sort of thing already without
accomplishing any goodor useful
purpose. The questions this mea-
sure proposes to treat cannot be
so simply dealt with."
Sikes said that he was not an
extremist and tried to see both
sides of a question, but that some
questions go far to deepto be set-
tled by edicts of the courts or acts
of the congress. "You cannot
change the thinking or the customs
of millions of people overnight.
Refroms which I don't think are a
basic purpose of this bill, can't be

out an understanding and accep-
tance of the need of refrom. people

Costin said, that even though he
didn't expect to do so, a bill was
passed for the state to spend $100,-
000 on a tumbler dam for the -dead
lakes provided matching money is
put up. (Interests in Wewahitchka
have hopes of getting $100,000 from
the Federal Government in the wa-
terhed program of the Department
of Agriculture). To insure an in-

a bill was passed allowing the to

the Stait license to fish that body
of water. The proceeds from such
a sale of licenses will go toward
the -umbler dam fund.
Costini that lie had managed to
secure an appropriation of $17,000
to make a survey on the port of
Port St. Joe, the Apalachicola Ri-

to gain information that will pos-

local port. Costin said this survey

Saints Games Are
Postponed Next Week

Attendance of fans at the ball
games of the Port St. Joe Saints
has hit a slump of late and what
with slumping attendance and the
fact that most everyone is on va-
cation with the St. Joe Paper Com-
pany mill being down for two weeks
the Saints-Oysterman game sche-
duled for Friday has been post-.
poned. until a future date. The Oys-
termen agreed to the postpone-
ment.
Wewahitchka had two games
with the Saints next week. One
here in Port St. Joe Tuesday, July
2 and there July 4. The Saints also
asked Wewahitchka to postpone
these two games due to expenses
of the players returning to play the
game. Wewahitchka agreed to the
postponement. These two games
will be' played at a later date.
The Star will run the adjusted
schedule of the Saints when the
dates are set to play these post,
poned games.
The Saints are now in first place
with the Apalachicola Oystermen
hot on their heels in second place.
