"Port St. Joe-The Outlet Port for the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee Voaley"


TWENTY-FIFTH YEAR


CITY ELECTION



QUALIFYING SET


Although it is hot outside, and
evidently "dog. days" (days not
fit for a dog), the time draws
near when Port St. Joe must pick
itself a Mayor and two City Com-
missioners to serve for two year
terms.
Prospective candidates f o r
these three posts may qualify for
a try at the offices from now un-
til August 27 when the qualifica-
tion books will close.
Qualification fees for all of-
fices are $35.00.
Posts coming up for election
are those held by Mayor Frank
Hannon, who is serving out the
late Mayor J. L. Sharit's term;
City Commissioner John Robert
Smith who is completing his first
term on the Board of Commis-
sioners and Commissioner Tom
S. Coldewey, completing the term
vacated by Frank Hannon when
he was elevated to the office of
Mayor.


As yet, none has qualified for
either office.
It is also time for voters to
begin thinking about checking on
their registration and for new ar-
rivals to the City to register to
vote in municipal elections.
According to City Auditor and
Clerk, J. B. Williams, the City
voter registration books will be
open for registration between the
dates of August 22 and 31. The
City Charter provides for this
abbreviated period of time in
which to register.
In order to qualify to vote in
Port St. Joe you must be a citi-
zen of the United States; a resi-
dent of the State of Florida for
one year and a resident of the
City of Port St. Joe for six
months. Of course, in order to
vote, you must be registered in
the City. County registration
does not qualify a person to vote
in Port St. Joe municipal elec-
tions.

State Plans Action

Against Two Gulf

Beverage Licensees

Two holders of beverage licenses
in Gulf County will face adminis-
trative action of the State Bever-
age Director, Thomas Lee, Jr., for
violations 'of the state beverage
laws, according to 'a Director an-
nouncement last week.
The Log Cabin Bar, located two
miles north of lWewahitchka, faces
four charges:
1. From May 1961, to February,
1962, 'all business conducted in the
bar portion of the licensed premise
was managed and controlled by a
person who was neither licensee
nor employee of the licensee, but
was lessee of the 'bar.
2. During the same dates, the li-
censee was knowingly selling alco-
holic beverages for re-s'ale;
34. On the same dates, the licen-
see did not have the right of im-
,mediate possession of the bar por-
tion of the licensed premise;
4. The licensee transferred the
bar portion of the beverage license
business to an individual and was
permittingg him to operate the bar
business under the 'owner's license
without obtaining a transfer of the
license.
According to the State Beverage
Department, these alleged viola-
tions are contrary to Florida's bevy-

t for the Wetappo Creek area in Gulf county.
- E. L. Garrett, representing the U. S Soil
i Conservation Service answered questions
* with regards to making an application for
- the Watershed Protection and lood Preven-
- tion Act. Upon motion of Comm. Strickland,
. seconded by Comm. Kennedy and unanimous-
e ly carried, the following application was
ordered and approved, to-wit:
e APPLICATION FOR PLANNING
ASSISTANCE UNDER THE WATERSHED
0 PROTECTION and FLOOD PREVENTION
ACT
(Public Law 566-83rd Congress)
STO THE HONORABLE
* SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE
UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT
OF AGRICULTURE
The undersigned local organizations make
application for Federal assistance under the
Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention
3 Act in preparing and carrying out plans for
works of improvement for the Wetappo Wa-
tershed, Gulf County, Florida.
The following information is submitted
in support of the application:
1. Size of Watershed, 100,000 acres
2. Location of Watershed
a. State: Florida
b. County: Gulf
c. Soil Conservation District: Tupelo
3 Land Use
The land uses within the Watershed areas
are estimated as follows:
a. Woodland: 98% or 98,000 acres
b. General Farming: 1% or 1,000 acres
c. Urban and Built Up; 1% or 1,000
acres
d. Cleared Land: 20% or 20,000 acres
1. Approximately 40% of land is idle
due to annual flooding.
2. 1% is in homesites, roads, schools
and towns.
3. 38% normally used as farm pro-
duction.
4. 1% normally used for general
farming,
5. There are approximately 100 land
owners in the watershed.
4. Watershed Problems
a. The overall problem in this water-
shed is flooding of roads, highways,
woodlands, and farm land in times
of excessive rainfalls. Gulf County
suffers numerous rainfalls annually
in excess of 2 inches, which causes
problems in flooding. This land, how-
ever, if properly protected, is suit-
able for general farming, pasture,
truck farming, and/or for reproduc-
tion of forestry products, and the
recovery in wild life benefits would
also add to the value of the land
and the attractiveness of the area,
as well as health and welfare prob-


lems which would be alleviated by
pruoable flood controls in eliminat-
ing mosquitos and insect problems.
in uiiza, excessive rainfall caused
a;ii undetermined amount of dam-
-,. ... A-es os i JU,UUU Lo rual.i
and bridges alone in Gulf County in
-e i-l.appo waLerslieU area, in aio-
dition to the extensive damage done
LO farm lands and the mari anu
forestry plans.
5. The treatments believed needed are,
retention reservoirs, farm control struc-
',. t, ,rainage measures, waterways,
stream bank improvement and essen-
tial vegetation programs, including
plantings sor wildlife food" and cover.
6. ine benefits expected from the water-
shed program would include the fol-
lowing:
a. A complete soil and water conserva-
tion program on the lands within
tie entire watershed.
b. A change in agriculture to provide a
higher cash income per owner.
c. Savings of thousands of dollars in
the maintenance of roads and bridges
within the watershed.
d. A dependable, adequate water sup-
ply for all agricultural purposes.
e. Flood prevention by remove of wa-
ter in excessive rainfall periods.
f. Recreational facilities, badly needed
within the Soil Conservation Dis-
trict.
7. The cost to local groups would be
met by contributions as follows:
a. Individual land owners.
b. Board of County Commissioners.
8. Necessary easements and agreements
for maintenance will be obtained by
the sponsoring group.
It is the belief of the undersigned local
organizations that Federal assistance
insider the watershed program and flood
prevention act is needed. We hereby
apply for planning assistance to deter-
mine whether or not the project pro-
posed is physically and economically
sound.

Court Decision Has Serious Aspects
The Federal Courts have stopped "preaching" and have
now resorted to "meddling".
Now, Florida is the brunt of their insistence that states
should re-apportion their Senatorial districts and re-arrange
the Representative populations from counties to provide for
an "equal voice" in the state legislature.
In a way, we can blame the Legislature of Florida for
this recent event of Monday. Had the Legislature met their
responsibilities to an acceptable degree and forgotten their
own individual political futures, Florida would not now be
in this deplorable situation.
And we profess that Florida-especially the smaller
counties-will now be in a deplorable situation.
Let's take a few "for instances", and examine them.
First, Gulf county and other small counties will stand
a more than equal chance of losing their Secondary Road
fund money which has built virtually every road in Gulf
County, except for main highways, during the past 15 years.
The big counties try in every session of the Legislature now
to allocate the Secondary Road Funds on a per capital basis,
using the argument that the most of these funds are paid
into the state treasury by the larger counties. The small
counties have managed to hang onto this needed source of
road building money for the past years. Reapportionment
on the court basis, will give the large counties the neces-
sary votes to get their wishes.
Next to go by the wayside will be the race track taxes
divided equally among the counties. The counties having
the race tracks in their boundaries contend that the money
is collected by them and should remain in their counties. The
larger counties will be able to make this wish an actuality.
Next to go by the wayside will be the homestead exemp-
tion. County assessors over the state have continually put
unrealistic evaluations on homes so they would be wholly
exempt. This was the politicaly smart" thing to do. But,
the growing pains of the smaller counties are magnified
much greater by the large counties. We predict that they
will band together to eliminate the homestead exemption law
to get this added source of revenue.
These are not suppositions. This is legislation that
has already been repeatedly introduced and just as repeatedly
defeated.
The Monday action of the Court could and does affect
each and every one of us. It would pay us to be informed
and ready to voice our wishes in these matters in days to
come.

Value Of A Drug
What is a prescription drug worth a drug which may
save your life, restore you to health, or prevent a prolonged
illness during which your earning power might be fully
stopped?
No one can answer such a question with mathematical
accuracy. And no layman has the knowledge that would
enable him to make statistical breakdowns that show the
cost of finding, developing, producing and distributing drugs.
But there are answers important and powerful an-
swers. For instance, a western businessman recently wrote
a letter to a senator who has been most critical of the phar-
maceutical industry.
In it he said: "On October 29, 1961, my wife was taken
seriously ill a gangrenous blocked intestine. I don't
know whether the $82 worth of drugs she received cost 82
cents or $8,200 to produce, but I couldn't care less. The pro-
fits which the drug companies made financed the necessary
research to develop drugs and equipment which saved my
wife's life.
"I am getting fed up with the attitude that profits
are criminal, sinful and should be eliminated.. I hope that
neither you nor I have our life span cut short by the lack
of a drug which was not developed."
Drug research is costly in money, time, energy, often
disappointment. The risks of failure are inevitably great.
The financially successful discoveries must carry the load of
the failures. Otherwise, progress must end and an ap-
palling human waste must follow.
-Panama City News

The President emphatically told Europe Monday, via
Telstar, that the United States would not devalue the dollar.
(Although we have done a pretty good job of that already).
A European speaking on a program concerning the Eu-
ropean Common Market Sunday night, said that European
nation's demand payment in gold because they don't trust
the U. S. dollar what with the climbing U. S. deficit spending.
And all the nation is concerned with the deficit spending
and the dwindling gold supply. A great number of the Con-
gressmen speak to their constituents and in public meetings
that the U. S.' deficit spending must stop. "It is ruining the
country" they say.
And then they all get together in Washington and vote
to extend the national debt even further.
We admit that we do not understand the high finances,
but we certainly don't understand the two opinions apparently
shared by our Nation's leaders, concerning this serious mat-
ter.

- Say You Saw It In The Star -


We appreciate the views of
our Senator Spessard Holland
and our Congressman Bob Sikes
regarding the Supreme Court rul-
ing recently on prayer in school.
Last week we published Sikes
letter we received on this sub-
ject. We would like very much to
hear how some of our local peo-
ple feel about this and what they
believe will be the outcome of
this shocking action. Write a
letter to the editor and get it *o
us. Sign your name to it and we
will be glad to let the people of
this community know your feel-
ings.
This week we received a let-
ter from Win Pendleton of Wash-
ington, D. C., who further expres-
sed our feelings toward this sub-
ject. We would like for our read-
ers to hear what he has to say.
He entitles this article, "Time
To Pray".

TIME TO SAY A PRAYER
By Win Pendleton
There is in the Capitol building,
on public property, mind you, a
prayer room. Since this is for Chris-
tian worship, and since it is located
on taxpayers' property will the Su-
preme Court close it down? Don't
go, people are stirred up. We lis-
tened .to half a dozen hot argu.menrts
during the past week-with a few
participants getting pretty worked
up and excited and loud.
And this is going on all over the
country. Congressional mail on the
subject has been heavy. People are
indignant. Which is good. It is go-
ing to wake up a few folks who
had begun to take their religion
for granted. If there is anything
wrong with the Christian Church
in America today, it is Christian
lethargy-Chlristian laziness. And
this will wake them up. This will
make some of them get to work.


It already has. There were more
good old fashioned hard-hitting
sermons preached around t h e
country Sunday after the decision
than have been preached in years.
Let us pray that this continues.
(And let us add our own P. S.
And hope that the average
layman takes heedl -Ed.)
We predict that many a 'dedicat-
ed Christian teacher will work
even harder now to teach her chil-
dren the importance of prayer.
And what will happen? Will any
of them be arersted? Will any
school teacher in Tmerica serve a
jail sentence because she opened
her class with a prayer to God?
This won't happen, of course.
If you were a sheriff, would you
issue the warrant in an anti-pray-
er case? Or if it ever came to a
trial, and you were a judge, would
you pass sentence on the teacher?
In spite of word from Washinglon,
people will think twice before thev
fall in line.
As we said, you can't tell now
exactly what will come in the fu-
ture as a result of the Court's rul-
ing. As far as the Christian church
goes, it might even be a blessing
in disguise. You can already notice
some good results. People are talk-
ing about prayer. Everywhere you
laugh at these questions. They fol-
low logically what we think is 'the
warped thinking of the members of
the Court.
What can we expect? Will we
see an absolute silencing 'of prayer
in all of our schools? We think not.
In some schools, maybe. But, In


most cases we expect to see Chris-
itian teachers defy the ruling of the
Supreme Court. Defying the law
(if it is the law?) is old hat to
Christians. They defied the Em-
perors of Rome during the first
century and they have been doing
it off and on ever since. The truth

Cong. Sikes Hits Foreign Aid


I am greatly disappointed in the
surrender by House and Senate
Conferees on foreign aid to Admin-
istration demands for a wide-open
'bill. Virtually all restrictions writ-
ten iakto the House bill to curb give-
aways to neutral and communist
nations have been eliminated. By
some legerdemain .the conference
report provides for a greater ex-
penditure than was authorized by
either the House or Senate bill. The
President can now give the tax-
payers' money to communist na-
ti-ons by the simple procedure of
sending a letter to Congress stat-
ing that he considers it in the na-
tiondl interest. Under the terms of
this bill the neutrals can continue
to help themselves at the U. S.
Treasury 'and give nothing in re-
turn. There is a strong possibility
that the Appropriations Committee
will 'at least cutback 'on the amount
'of money. Normally, however,
House rules prevent new legisla-
tion from being written into ap-
propriation bills. That means vir-
tually all hope of a realistic for-
eign aid policy is lost for another
year.
A modified welfare bill which is
now law contains a $4.00 increase
in the federal matching funds to
the states for each recipient of
Old Age Assistance and Aid to the
Blind and Disabled, effective Oc-
tober 1. This small increase Is
badly needed. The bill also provides
that OAA recipients may earn
funds without having them sub-
tracted from their checks. Effective

is, it seems that Christianity has
always flourished best when it has
faced Its most severe opposition
and persecution.
Because Jesus once told -his Dis-
ciples: "Blessed are they which
are persecuted for righteousness'
sake; for their's is the kingdom of
'heaven." That Is part of the Chris-
tian tradition. Christians seem to
work harder when the going is
rough-when the challenge is great.
Only history will be able to mea-
sure the enormity of the anti-prayer
'decision of the Supreme Court.
light now it is too early-and we
are too close to the event-to know
what the outcome will be. The first
amendment to our Constlution says
"Congress shall make no law re-
specting an establishment of reli-
gion, or prohibiting the free exer-
cise thereon ."
The Supreme Court seems to say
that means teachers in our public
schools cannot open their classes
with a word of prayer. Now will
the Supreme Court rule that the
daily sessions of the Senate and
House of Representatives cannot
'be opened with prayer? Will they
rule that the oath of office of the
President must be done away with?


January 1, 1963, they can exmept
all of the first $10.00 'per month
they earn and one-half of the next
$40 per month they earn. There
are other features and one appar-
ing to have merit is federal partici-
pation in state work 'and training
programs for able-bodied relief re-
cipients. This is intended to train
people for work to get them off
relief rolls.
Those who have watched Ameri-
ca's astronauts in orbit may lose
sight of the fact that more than
15,000 persons manning the critical
ground complexes are directly re-
sponsible for the success of the
man in space. It is the most precise
team operation in history.
News of the successful Nike Zeus
shot is encouraging, particularly
since it is probably equivalent to
the success claimed for the Rus-
sians by Mr. Khrushchev a day or
two -ago in this field. It does not
indicate we now have an opera-
tional anti-missile missile or that
the Russians have. We expected
this shot to be a success. There
would have been reason for con-
cern if it had not been a success.
There is still testing to be done,
and if that goes well we can soon
embark upon a program of procure-
ment. We could give consideration
to buying long lead time items now,


but I don't think we are ready for
full scale procurement on a 10 bil-
lion dollar program.
The advisory ruling by the In-
ternational Court of Justice that
UN members must contribute to
the cost of taht organization's Mid-
dle East and Congo operations to
a welcome one. Russia and many
'other countries have refused to
participate in the cost of UN activi-
ties to which they object. As a re-
sult the U. S. has been saddled
with the bills. The next step will
be to require that all nations pay
a proportionate share or lose their
voting rights in the UN. If the U.
S. insists -on this course we will
begin 'to see more realism In the
United Nations.

BOWLING NEWS
By AL JENSEN
Hi fans! Here are the results of
the Port St. Joe summer league
Monday night bowling.
On alleys one and two, we saw
the league-leading Stevedozes take
four big points from 'the St. Joe
Bowling Lanes. The Stevedores led
by big Ted Grab'owski .and Gary
Manz, bowling 554 and 520 re-
spectively. However the 'St. Joe
Bowling Lanes didn't give it away
as Wayne .Smith and Joe Whaley
bowled a 544 -and a 494 in, that or-
der.
Alleys three and four saw Phil-
lip's 66 and Nedley's Flower Boys
get in some close games. Gardner
,and Mun rolled a 452 and 432 for
the Gassers. Scott and Zimmerman
rolled fine series for the flower
boys with a 499 -and a 445 in that
order. Phillips 66 won the first
'game 'by 24 pins and then the flow-
er boys came back to win 'the sec-
ond game by 21 pins. The last
game was also taken by the flower
boys by one big pin and the gassers
took total pins by two 'pins so that
is some close bowling, wouldn't
you say?
Alleys five and six saw a sad
Jensen's Five lose three points to
the paper 'mill boys. It started with
Jensen's Five winning the first
game and then losing the next two
to the paper mill boys. The -high
games of Moss and Sunny Counts
of a blazing 246 and 184 in .that or-
der was more than Jensen's Five
could take. However Yank Zimmer-
man in the middle of the second
game got bit on the thumb of his
bowling hand by Wayne Smith's
pet skunk, but went on to be high
man for Jensen's Live with a fine
530 series followed by John "Hook"
McKenzie with a 481 series.

Rotary Hears

Author In Program

Tom Person, instructor at the
Bay High School English Depart
ment presented a very interesting
program to the Port :St. Joe Rotary
Club Thursday of last week.
Person, an author of several no
vels and short stories, gave the
Rotarians some 'of the historic
background on one of his novels
"Trouble On The Trace".
The "Trace" was a path used by
riverboaters around 1800 to trave
from Natchez to Nashville after
floating their wares to market it
New Orleans. The river boaters us
ually -carried 'a tidy sum of money
with them back up the "Trace" and
naturally fell prey to bandits on
the way.
Two of 'the .most notorious ban
dits of this stretch 'of road were
Wiley Harpe and his brother and
a man by the name of Sam Mason
They were bloodthirsty killers and
made a habit 'of leaving no wit
nesses to their nefarious deeds.
Of course, Person's book uses
fictitious names, but the story ol
these bandits is the basis for his
novel.
Person said that the "Trace" is
now 'being touted for a Federal
Parkway and has a good chance of
succeeding in this venture.
Person said that the "Trace"
'was a monument showing "Man's
rise from dismal ignorance to
thoughtful uncertainty".
Guests 'of the club were Hub Rob-
erson of Evergreen, Ala.; Fred S.
McColl of Marianna; Charlie Mor-
gan of Wewahitchka; J. D. Booth
of Atlanta and Charlie Brock of
Honolulu.


Glidden Engineer

Talks To Kiwanis

Bill .Stauffer, an engineer for the
Glidden Company gave the program
to the Port St. Joe Kiwanis Club
Tuesday at noon.
Stauffer 'gave a short history of
the Glidden Company and describ-
de Glidden's operations in Florida,
here in Port St. Joe and in Jackson-
ville.
The company was started by Ad-
rian Joyce as a small 'group of
paint manufacturing plants. Now
their .complex has grown to encom-
pass the Durkee foods line, manu-
facture of 'edible oils, organic chem-
icals and mining on a small scale.
The Jacksonville plant 'bakes
chemicals from turpentine solu-
tions which are mainly used in per-
fumes and flavorings. This plant
manufactures mostly highly refin-
ed chemicals.
The Port 'St. Joe plant was built
specifically for a tall oil refining
process. It takes waste products
from the manufacture of paper 'and
extracts materials used in paint,
inks, plastics and -many other ar-
ticles as well as crude naval stores.
