JOE, FLORIDA NUMBER 34 George Tapper Buys M & B Railroad Line One of Northwest Florida's oldest and best known railroads changed hands last Friday afternoon in- 'a surprise transaction at Blountstown. SGeorge G. Tapper, prominent Port St. Joe businessman and former state senator, purchased the Marianna and Blountstown Railroad from Mrs. Verna D. Miller for an undisclosed price. 'Organized in 1910 by Rufus Pen- nington and C. R. Evans, the Pan- handle. railway later was acquired by Felix dePont. 0. '0.. Miller, in 1925 acquired all the stock and complete control' of the line. Mrs. Miller has owned and operated the M & B since her husband's death in September 1955. The M & B is a freight line which primarily handles pulp woo d, stumps; lumber and allied cargoes. The line connects with the L&N Railroad at Marianna. New railway officers include President Tapper, Altdn Dendy, vice president and general mana- ger, Treasurer W. R. Tapper of Port St. Joe and Secretary David Carl Gaskin of Wewahitchka. One 'of Northwest Florida's fast- eat rising young business tycoons, the new railway owner also is president of George G. Tapper, Inc. Beacon Tank and Bridge Company of Port St. Joe and has some real estate holdings. The dynamic businessman served as 25th Senatorial District senator from 1953 through 1956. The district is composed of Bay, Calhoun, Gulf and Washington counties. The line's vice president is presi- dent of the St. Joe Stevedoring Co. Gaskin is Wewahitchka State Bank executive vice president and chairman tf -the Board. He also is Wewahitchka' city attorney. Dendy was general manager of the line wlihe It was under opera- tion of Mrs.' Miller. Said George Tapper of his new business ventm .. '[ intend to op- erate th 'line ,o a such a manneiG that it ,will be i-real asset to the communities which it serves. I hope to be of assistance to the Chamber of Commerce and other groups and individuals in bringing new indus- tries to Calhoun County, and sur- rounding counties. I'am interested in promoting all .of this area. "It will be my desire to work with all groups for the good of the area. I am no stranger to Calhoun County, and hope the people will show me the same co-operation they have the former owners of the line. I certainly intend to co-operate with everyone." Immediate past president of the Port St. Joe Chamber of Com- SEN. MANN TO BE PTA SPEAKER TONITE R. H. ElIzey, president of the Elementary School PTA told The Star this week that Senator Verle . A. Pope, who was to address the Elementary School PTA tonight on the school finance problem will be unable to appear as sche- duled. Senator Pope was taken to the hospital early this week and is still confined there by illness. ElIzey said that" Represen*t- tive Bob Mann of Hillsborough COUNTY GETS ADDED HOPE FOR SECONDARY ROAD FUND BOND ISSUE Gulf County's Commission received added hopes that their $850,000.00 bond issue for paving several county roads would get clear sailing through State channels yesterday. Clerk of the Circuit Court, George Y. Core received notice that the state had approved a similar issue for Highlands County in the amount of $2,000,000.00. The notice offers a ray of hope for Port St. Joe since the proposed bond issue contains several roads for paving in the City of Port St. Joe. Roads to be paved from the bond issue are, First Street, Sixteenth Street, Twentieth Street and Garrison Avenue and an extension of Fifth Street to the Bay and Long Avenue from the Port St. Joe High School to Niles Road. The issue would also pave Long Avenue from Fifth to First Street. There has been some doubt that the State would grant the paving inside city limits due to a recent act of the Legis- lature that has been interpreted as prohibiting spending of Secondary Road Funds inside a municipality limits. The no- tice received by Core, however, notes that several such streets were approved in the Highlands County issue under Section 335.05, Florida Statutes. County will substitute for Sena- tor Pope.

The Commission had already advertised for bids on the bonds to be opened Tuesday af- ternoon, but no bids were received. ,City-Clerk R. W. Henderson said that possibly the reason that no bids were recorded for the bonds was that no communication had I 'been made directly to bond buyers 4S notifying them of the sale. SThe bonds would provide funds that the City needs to match cer- tain Government funds provided by the Hill-Burton act. The City float- Sed a $175,000 issue in August of last year, but after the issue was sold the Hill-Burton money became 5 ,'% available--more than the City had S1 matching funds for.

Historical Society Se To Constitution Mus The St. Joseph Historical Society ni Port St. Joe has approached the Florida Park Service in regards -to expanding the local Constitution Park Museum. The following let- ter was written to Emmet L. Hill, Director of the Florida Park Service by the local Society in regards to the matter: Dear Mr. Hill, Regarding the discussion of plans recently reviewed with you at the call meeting held at St. Joseph Mu- seum,' April 1,, at which you and Mr. Coldwell were so kind to meet with our -Society, I wish to advise the following. Our ,St. Joseph's Historical So- ciety is very much interested in having an additional wing added to our 'present museum, which we firmly believe will further the in- terest and historical value of our present lovely museum. I will try to outline the ideas we have in mind to see if they possibly meet with your approval. We would like to see the inter- ior ot this addition planned to re- Deking Addition eum From State with platform etc., as already por- trayed). The walls of this addition we would like to see hung with por- traits of Washington, over the plat- form, and the side walls lined with just as many of the actual dele- gates -and signers' portraits as it is possible *to secure. These to be framed in handsome, recessed, gold- lief frames. The photographs of the following are already available from which the enlarged portraits could be made: Hon. Robert Raymond Reid, Pres. of Convention. Hon. William Pope Duval. Hon. Benjamin Drake Wright Hon. David Levy (Yulee). Colonel John L. MeKinnon Judge William Marvin. Also a photograph is available of one of the Gautiers (in his late years). Both of the Gautiers were most prominent during the Conven- tion. P. W. Gautier, Sr., being the Chaplain and Peter W.

Our society intends td puit on a drive this summer in an effort to secure additional Delegates' photo- graphs and information regarding each of them so that we may be able to do thumb-nail sketches on each and all Delegates, which may possibly be used in some way in this addition, or otherwise. I am listing here these -and oth- er ideas we have for displays in this desired, and, as we believe, needed addition. 1. Photos of delegates that can be secured who attended Florida's First Constitution Convention. En- larging these to portrait size, fram- ing in gold-lief frames. These to be hung on walls In the new -addi- tion. 2. Glass showcases to display old documents, old newspapers, old maps, etc., or facsimiles of same, that may possibly 'be secured, as is done with Stephen Foster's com- positions at that Memorial. 3. Artifacts that may be 'forth- coming. Additional glass cases to display these and whatever other relics related to *this period that can be secured. 4. If the Original Constitution can be obtained from Art Gallery in California then this document to be .especially glassed and displayed. 5. If the Original table around which the actual signing of the Constitution took place can be lo- cated and secured then this table should be housed in this new addi- tion. 6. A large drawing of the Powell ma-p showing lay-out fo St. Joseph to 'be displayed in this new addi- tion. We, as a society and individually, believe that in securing this addi- tion it would be of considerable value not only to traveling tourists but from an educational standpoint to all students who are now, and in the future will become interested in St. Joseph's history. Besides these pertinent reasons we feel this new addition will properly pre- serve the important data of this era of Florida ,history, now avail- able -and that -the future may dis- close. - - - - - THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1950 ME STAR.

Ca- rey, District Manager of the Pan- ama City social security office, re- minded employers this week. The requirement of the social security report of 'employees' earnings is not to be confused with unemployment compensation. Under the Internal Revenue Law employers of any employee are li- able for the full 5% social security contribution on the first $4800 of a worker's earnings, Carey added. Employers should deduct 2%% for social security purposes and add an equal amount in making the re- port and transmitting the tax to the District Director of Internal 'Revenue. Farm workers are reported on an annual basis, Carey concluded.

Ericson was stationed at Eglin Air Force Base which he termed "a big laboratory". Ericson said that Cape San Blas would be one in a. series of our tracking stations that would serve" to test and perfect certain missiles fired at Eglin for performance. He said there are two stations ." Cape San Blas, one near the beach near the Coast Guard Station and the other just South of the Coast Grard Station. Between the two stations, approximately 140. men will' be stationed at the two sta- tions by the first of the year. The stations will have an annual payroll of between a quarter and a half million dollars a year. Ericson said that Vitro now has the contract to operate the sta- tions, but the operation is on a bid contract basis. Guests of the club were Creed Mefford of Port St. Joe, head of the Cape San Bias installation and Jack Bergman of Eglin Air Force Base. others Mrs. J. E. Perritt and Mrs. J. C. Prevost. Owens Speaks To Kiwanis Club County Superintendent of Public Instruction spoke before the Ki- wanis Club Tuesday telling them of the effects of proposed cutbacks in school financing by the State Legislature. According to owens, not 11 the proposed cut-backs will affect Gulf County, but those that will will hart Gulf's progress in education. He especially cited cut-backs o(. special service personnel which will cost Gulf about two units, or $7,500.00 per year. A cut-back in the Minimum Foundation payments will seriously affect Gulf's building plans, since the School Board is already making plans for several new school rooms for next year. "We have to have them", said Ow- ens. The other category hurting Gulf would be a cut-back in text- book funds. "Although we could make out in this department some way, curtailment of the other funds will place us in a need of abuot $50,000.00 more financing from lo- cal sources." Owens said. He point- ed out that the School Board has only two more mills they can levy which will bring in about $25,000.00. *In a business session of the club Tommy Pridgeon was elected to serve out the term of Vice-Presi- dent vacated by Dick Lamberson. Guests of the club were Key Clubbers Bob Kerrigan and Nel- son Hall. 1-- .- -- It- Phone 7-3161 James' Gems.. by JAMES STAFFORD HE INSIST ON GalING -o City Restaurant At the Bus Station SHRIMP BOXES CHICKEN BOXES FISH BOXES Phone your order In- and it will be ready when you' arrive.
