USPS 518-880 FORTY-FOURTH YEAR, NUMBER 33 THE STAR Industry Deep Water Port Fine People Safest Beaches in Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA 32456 THURSDAY, APRIL 16,1981 20' Per Copy to Allow Tax Exemption , Referendum OK'd Gulf County voters will be asked to go to the polls this year, possibly within 90 days. The purpose of the special election will be to determine whether or not the voters of Gulf County wish to give the County Commission the authority to reduce or abolish county ad valorem taxes for new industry which might come into the county. The tax reduction program to encourage new industry, was approved last year by the Legislature and subsequently in an election in October f last year during the regular primary elections. If approved in a referendum, on a county basis, acceptance of the plan would allow the County Commis- sion to grant total or partial ad valorem tax exemption for up to five years for any new industry.which might wish to locate in the county. George G. Tapper requested the county to hold the referendum, in order to give him a working tool in his current campaign to sign up industry and firms to use the new proposed port facilities. "If we know this exemption is available , here in Gulf County, it makes our selling job much easier", Tapper said. Other counties in this area, notably Bay and Washington, have already approved such an authority for their County Commissions. The plan met with unanimous approval of the Commission, but Commissioner Billy Branch wanted to make an attempt to secure volunteer poll holders to man the polls since the county budgeted no election funds this year. There were no regularly schedul- ed elections for this year. Commission- er Doug Birmingham objected saying he felt the county should hold the election in the normal manner to keep down any controversy which might arise and made a motion to that effect. Birmingham's motion carried, but Branch still wanted to try to secure volunteer poll holders if possible. Holding of an election in Gulf County costs around $5,000. Attorney William J. Rish said he would get together with Elections Supervisor Cora Sue Robinson and they would try to have the election ready to roll within 90 days. STRAW BALLOT Commissioner Jimmy Gortman suggested and lobbied successfully for a straw ballot to be placed on the special referendum. His question would be whether or not the people of the county would approve of the County Commission using county money to purchase property known as "street ends" on St. Joe Beach for the purpose of maintaining the areas for public use. The Board had said they would call for the question in a referendum in a county election, and.Gortman wants to use the one coming up as the vehicle to decide that question. Commissioner Branch felt the question should be asked in a regular election and felt it might hurt the chances of the tax exemption passing. Even though the question on the ballot called for by Gortman was a straw ballot and carried no mandates to the Board to purchase the property in question, the Commission still approv- ed Gortman's request with Branch casting the lone dissenting vote. County Has $350,000 Paving Money More I Gulf County still has some $350,000 in the bank to use for road paving and this evening the Commission will meet at the CourthouSe at 7:00 p.m., to determine where it should properly be spent. County Administrative As- sistant Tommy Pitts advised rhe-Board Tuesday in the regular meeting session the county still had $28,000 left from their recent bond issue, $244,000' which has accrued this year from the state secondary program, some $3,000 in reimbursements and $75,000 in an account with the state which hasn't been called for as yet. Pitts advised the Board that in his opinion the state would begin funding primary toad building and repairs again later in the year and suggest- ed the county get cracking with plans to spend its road money immediately. "Right now, there is no road work going on, and we can get some good prices from some idle contractors. Later on in the year, they are all going to get busy when the state gets, back in the business again, and we will pay a premium for what we get." The Commission seemed to agree with Pitts' thinking and scheduled a special meeting for this evening to come up with a priority list on which to load Paving Coming spend the paving money. are talking about surfacing -Agreed to contact DOT John Howard was present at that part of the highway in about making the speed limit Tuesday's meeting and want- Calhoun County first", Pitts a permanent 45 mph from St. ed to give the Commission said.

"Right now, there is no rQad work going on, and we can get some good prices frowr some idle contractors," Pitts. Howard wanted the County to re-surface Florida Avenue, a short street at St. Joe Beach, which Howard said hadn't been re-surfaced since the street was built and which is badly in need of a new top right now. The Commission said they would consider Howard's re- quest, pointing out the street was already high up on their present priority list. HIGHWAY 71 TO WAIT Pitts and Commissioner Money, who attended a meet- ing of the Department of Transportation in Chipley recently, had some sad news to report. Pitts said the DOT said at the meeting, that Gulf County could expect no re-surfacing on Highway 71 until at least 1984 or 1985. "Even then, they re-surfaced for the past six or eight years, to no avail. A promise was made 'about three years hack by DOT to do some work on the road, but it never materialized. Currently, highway 71 is more patch than paving. Since the DOT seems de- termined to delay surfacing of the highway even longer, the County has agreed to take the pressure route and contact powerful legislators, asking for their help in rushing up the project. OTHER BUSINESS In other business matters, the County: --Agreed to loan Overstreet $5,500 to purchase a used fire truck. -Gave permission for an unusual installation of a tele- phone line on streets in Overstreet and Dalkeith. -Agreed to a request by Selma Shoemaker to re-name "Wimico Avenue" in. Whine' City "Sealey Avenue".

According to Tax Collector, Eda Ruth Taylor, the tax bills were received this week from the computer and it will be only a matter of days now before they will go into the mails. The Tax Collector's office received the bills late last week some 5,000 of them and are now in the process of sorting and recording the statements before they are put into the mails. Tuesday, when this picture was made, the Tax Collector's crew was getting thebillsogether to be placed in the mailing envelop., Tax Collector Taylor said the bills should go into the mails by next Tuesday. "We're trying for next Tuesday", she said, "But we may be a day or two later with the mailing." At any rate, by late next week, you should know just how much money you owe in local taxes and you will have 30 days to pay the bill. Many county tax payers have already paid an estimate on their county taxes and will be faced with paying the balance during the 30 day period after the bills are mailed out. A very few lucky ones who paid early may even get a refund. Taylor said the current tax bills will-become delinquent after 30 days from the mail date. Federal Cut Backs Affect Schools Gulf County Schools are facing a money crisis, with federal cut-backs being pro- grammed for the coming school year. In their regular session Tuesday of this week, the School Board'took the first of several steps it knows it needs to take to meet the lack of federal funds in the future. "The main place we will be hurting on a local basis is in the areas of teacher aides, lunchroom operations and re- medial teaching positions", Superintendent Walter Wilder said. Wilder 'said he expects a huge cut in the financing of lunchroom operations, "throwing that program into a crisis". Already, the School Board has taken one step to meet the impending crisis and will take a "wait and see" attitude on the others. Tuesday, the Board voted to discontinue 14 teaching aide positions. The aides will finish out the present school year but will not be included in next year's plan, which begins in July. Wilder said, "The biggest impact will be on our lunch- room operations, but Wilder nor the Board knew enough about the extent of the effects from the cut-back to make a decision at the present time in this operation. "We'll just have to wait and see what happens", Wilder said. Presently, students in ele- mentary schools pay 50 cents for lunches and high school students pay 60 cents. "If the government makes good on its threat to cut out all subsidies, we can see the price of a school lunch going -up to between $1.00 to $1.25, which is the actual cost of preparing the meal", Wilder said. The Superintendent pointed out that all lunches served by the school are subsidized to an extent. It seems the shady area is what is going to happen to those who receive even further subsidies in their lunches because of economic factors. Wherever the cuts come, Wilder said he looked for the federal cuts to amount to about $50,000 in the Gulf County School System. "To us, that's a lot of money", he said. Easter Worship Services to Hail the Risen Christ Port St. Joe's Ministerial Association has planned a full week end of holy week activities for worship in the community, beginning with Friday services and climaxing with the Sunday morning Sunrise Services. The Good Friday services will be held in two locations: the.Long Avenue Baptist Church and St. James Episcopal Church with both services beginning at 12:00 noon and continuing until 1:00 p.m. Speaker at the Long Avenue Baptist Church Good Friday services will be Rev. Hal Haller, pastor of the Faith Bible Church. Rev. Sid Ellis will bring the message at the services at St. James Episcopal. The public is invited to attend either of the services. EASTER SUNRISE The Christian community of Port St. Joe will greet Easter Sunday morning with a sunrise . worship in the high school football stadium, beginning at 6:30 a.m. The special worship will also be sponsored and conducted by the Ministerial Association. The services will begin with a girls ensemble singing and the invocation by Ft. Paul Stewart, Pastor of St. Joseph's Catholic Church. Rev. Earnest Barri pastor of First Pentecostal Holiness Church will give the welcome and announcements. Special music will be given by a mixed ensemble and Rev. J. W. Williams,'pastor of New Bethel A.M.E. Church will give the offertory prayer. Rev. Johnie McCurdy, pastor of the First United Methodist Church will read scripture. An ensemble will sing just before the Easter message is given. The Easter message will be delivered by Rev. Ted Corley, pastor of Long Avenue Baptist Church. The benediction will be pronounced by Rev. David Fernandez, pastor of Oak Grove Assem- bly of God Church. The sunrise service will be of an interdenom- inational nature and all faiths are urged and invited to attend and participate. In case of inclement weather, the services will be held in the High School Coliseum. County's "Teacher of the Year" Superintendent of Schools Walter Wilder, plaque Tuesday morning, designating her as presents Judith McKnight Lister with a Gulf County's "Teacher of the Year." Mrs. Judith McKnight Lister, second grade teacher in the Wewahitchka- Elementary School, has been selected as. Gulf County Teacher of the Year, accord- ing to School Superintendent Walter Wilder. Mrs. Lister, a graduate of Florida State University, has taught in Wewahitchka for the past 11 years. Married to Mike Lister, local businessman, she is the mother of Michael, a seventh grader at Wewahitchka High School, and Aimee, a fourth grader, in Wewahitchka Ele- mentary School. Although Mrs. Lister's classroom is located in the oldest school plant in the county, a step inside is a delight to the eye. Learning centers are tucked into each available nook, gay curtains hang at the windows, and the well-worn furniture has bright coats of enamel which were applied by the teacher's hand. A colorful rag rug, upon which sits a rocking chair, decorates the center of the room, and a sign on the desk says, "Miss Judi loves you." It is obvious for she has transformed a for she ahs transformed a drab room into a stimulating and inviting place for learn- ing. Not content with just the provision of a pleasant en- vironment, Mrs. Lister has taken special care to provide a multitude of materials to meet her students' needs at varying ability levels, and through her teaching methods consistently strives to create opportunities for each child to meet success. One of five nominees from Gulf County Schools, Mrs. Lister was named Teacher of the Year by a district-wide screening committee com- posed of personnel represent- ing each school. Wilder stated, "Selection of the. Gulf County candidate was a difficult process, for all the nominees are outstanding in their par- ticular fields," Other nomin- ees included: Mrs. Carol Kelley, English teacher, Wewahitchka High School; Winston Wells, third grade teacher Highland View Ele- mentary School; Mrs. Janet Anderson, second grade teacher Port St. Joe Elemen- tary School; and Clarence Monette, media specialist, Port St. Joe High School. The Teacher of the Year program does not attempt to single out any individual as the best teacher but to honor one who is representative of all good teachers. From the county nominations received by Commissioner of Education Ralph Turlington, one in- dividual will be chosen Florida Teacher of the Year 1982 and will become the state's candidate for National Teacher of the Year honors. OMO I TrHE STAR S.. .7. Ia,. - Thursday, April 16, 1981 Japanese Now Find Trading Shoe On Other Foot The Japanese are beginning to feel a small portion of what America's auto makers and workers are feeling. The Japanese are being whipped, soundly, at the market place by America's aluminum manufacturers, to the point of dealing the Japenese aluminum industry a telling blow in their attempts at production. It seems American manufacturers are making aluminum better and cheaper than the Japanese and they are flooding the Japanese with American-made aluminum at the expense of the home industry. S The Japanese have been horning in on the -fat of the American automobile industry for the past three or four years, now, to the point of causing America's largest single industry to feel the pinch of enormous losses in revenue and profits. Also, their tactics of flooding the American market with Japanese-made cars has cost the U.S. thousands of jobs in the automobile industry. In Japan, which boasts of life-time employment for their industrial workers, .. nearly a fourth of their aluminum workers ... have lost their jobs. American competitors are raking the cream off the Japanese aluminum market. In a sekise, the Americans have turned the tables on the Japanese, although not to the extent the Japanese have hobbled the American auto industry. So what are the Japanese doing about it? They are getting together a mission -f high level representatives to come to the United States to plead for sympathy from the United Steelworkers union. Turning a deaf ear to the requests from American unions to limit exports of automo- biles to the United States will not work well for the Japanese in their efforts to limit our aluminum exports, we would think. We think the Japanese have more to worry about than aluminum. We believe that within just a short while, they will lose their recently won designation as the world's largest auto maker and begin to lose some of their market to American producers. While the Japanese have gained no market with us with their auto production, there are many Americans who will buy their product, simply because they think they are saving a dollar or two. Our automobile will continue to be American-made so long as Americans make automobiles. Americans invented low-cost, quality production through mass production. We think their expertise will win out in the long run and before long, the Japanese will not only be concerned about competition with their aluminum production, but their auto industry will also begin to feel keen, tough competition from American producers. We will welcome the day. Legislature Has Chance to Prove Responsibility The Florida Legislature is now in session, and already they are beginning to show responsibility for their stewardship. Last week a committee killed an attempt to lift the state speed limit from 55 to 65 on the state's interstates and Turnpike. The 55 mph speed limit has proven its effectiveness in highway safety, fuel savings and wear and tear on our already decrepit roads., Holding our speed to 55 mph in an automobile designed to cruise at 65 to 70 mph gets monotonous at times, but results have proven the speed limit provides more of an advantage to drivers than it does the disadvantage of taking our time. If the Legislature can show the same good sense on money bills, financing of necessary services and a lessening of some of the bureaucracy which interferes with all phases of our activities in the state, the Legislature will have served us well. Tax recommendations have already rear- ed their heads due to the cut-back of federal funds. Some state law-makers would hit the Florida tax payer for funds to replace lost federal money due to federal cut-backs. Replacing federal dollars with state dollars would be no cut-back at all. Even our state law makers should have been able to tell by last November's vote that there is a desire to cut back on expenditures. We take this to mean on a state and local level, too. Removing some of the present state requirements of local operations would allow W this tax cut-back to filter down to the local level as well. We hope the Legislature keeps these things in mind as they ponder over their responsibilities in Tallahassee for the next 60 days. Watching the World Go By ., ,,Christianity Is Real Thing 4 j by Adolph Bedsole Christianity is the real ...thing! It has to be of God, or it ::could not have survived 2000 years with the products it has produced. Since God already i t -liows everything and the world has discovered many things about us, we may as :' well confess (and hopefully forsake) some of our sins. We Christians are a high tempered, long tongued, con- -T.entious and argumentative lot. Petty jealousies, char- *acter assassination, cliques in the church, power plays, and hurt feelings cripple many churches. Holy Joes and "super Christians" look with disdain Son fellow Chrisitans who cry out, "Lord, be merciful to me a sinner." .' Christianity is fragmented in American into many de- nominations because of doc- trinal differences. Each de- nomination claims it is right. Individual churches split- then the split splits and "Covies" of split churches cover the land. Members in a church who 7 find they cannot have their way in their own church often "take their paper dolls and go home." Often, individual members of the same church will not . speak to or associate with one another.

Skinning and destroying preachers is a favorite sport for some unsportsman like Christian "sportmen?". High tempered, thin skin and lazy preachers give Christianity their share of black eyes. Yes, preachers sometimes rise on pride and then fall into gross immoral- ity. Yes, we Christians have "'Al sinned and come short of ,the glory of God." We still have the descendents of Judas among us. The world does need in- creased numbers of CHrist- ians we already have. Saints are simply saved sinners on their way to heaven. But the testimony and power of saints on the world is gravely retarted by the way we behave. Even with all our sins and weaknesses, Christianity re- mains the most wonderful group of people on earth. Christians are God's people- the bride of Christ. Christians stand for something. They have professed something they are going somewhere. You see, if Christianity were not of God, we could not possibly have survived, con- sidering the way many of us act. Christians will not go to heaven by the way they live. Grace means getting some- thing we do not deserve. The Bible says we are saved by Grace--not by works. Now, to you self-righteous judges standing outside look- ing in-with perhaps an Amen to the above, let me say six things: 1. There is no defense for the way many of us live. We often disgrace our Lord. We ought to be ashamed enough to behave ourselves. 2. But with all our weakness- es, I take the church 100 to 1 over the non-church world. : 3. You sa yu refuse to live in the churclfwith hypeirites. But you live in the community with them. You trade with them; you work with them; you hunt with them. You may be married to one. So, become one with us-one more won't hurt too much. 4. Some of the choice souls of the earth are to be found in the churches living righteously! 5. You have an option about hypocrites. You must live in the Kingdom of God on earth with them or live in hell with them forever. 6. And, say, how did you get elected to judge God's people? So, as you watch the world go by, it would be well to remember that God disci- plines his people in his own way. But He is going to get His people to Heaven-RE- GARDLESS.

The latter reason is why I am using them in this space this week. I like to watch baseball. I like to watch the ETAO Braves, even though they haven't exactly been winners during the past few years. I was watching the Braves way back when they were in Milwaukee and had Warren Spahn on the mound tossing his hard ball from the port side. Already, those of us who have the cable in our homes have been able to watch the Braves. The channel isn't officially on the air as yet, but Robert Newman, owner of Gulf Cable TV has the channel on the air on channel 9 on your TV set, trying it out and getting it ready for viewing by his customers. Robert says he isn't saying a thing about the channel as yet, because he is still adjusting, making repairs, tuning, etc. "We go off the air sometimes for hours at a time making adjustments", Newman said, "and if I get people expecting to see the ball game on channel 9 and I have to take the channel off the air for an adjustment, my phone will ring off the hook!" So, if you read this, start watching Atlanta channel 17 on channel 9 of your TV set, and the program is interrupted, please don't call Robert .. or us. In the meantime, while Robert is taking two or three weeks to fine tune the channel, I'm going to enjoy the Braves baseball games, and see some other fine National League teams in the bargain. LATER ON, Robert says he will also have Turner's all news station on the cable too, just as soon as he gets Channel 17 ironed out. He has even promised that in the very near future, he will have Home Box Office or one other current movie channel available at a small monthly extra charge.' First, he's going to get Channel 17 moving like it should, the news network settled in, and then start working on the movie channel. We thank you Robert. The estab- lished networks have all but made our TV useless between MASH on Monday night to WKRP on Saturday night. I GUESS I'M getting too old to be turned on by such things as "The Incredible Hulk", "Chips", "B. J. and the Bear", "The Dukes of Hazard", "Buck Rogers", etc. I like a good laugh, but "Mork and Mindy" doesn't give it to me. I'M NOT GOING TO guarantee I will follow a steady diet of channel 17, on channel 9, but at least, if I have some time to watch TV, I will have a choice of something I like to see, if the networks don't tempt me with something better, which they haven't been doing lately.

As the performance wore on, the shaving cream wore off. The performance wearing on and the shaving cream wearing off was the reason for the charges being filed. The Williams woman claimed the charges were a violation of her rights to free speech and expression. I think Williams should have been convicted. I didn't see the performance, nor did I see the effects of the shaving cream wearing off. I did see a picture of Williams, as she appeared in the courtroom. The sight of her fully clothed (her version of fully clothed) was obscene enough for me. Williams was an odd looking creature.

Adkins told of some of the first settlers to the Calhoun (and Gulf) county area and told something about the people. One of the earliest families to the area was the Durden family, which still lives in Calhoun county. "The first Durden came to Calhoun county in 1838 and immediate- ly got into a feud with another family over a woman". In addition to telling of some of the families of that era, Adkins also showed maps of the old St. Joseph, Dead Lakes and Iola Railroad, the Forbes Purchase (which inspired the founding of old St. Joseph), and several steamship pas- senger manifests of the day. Adkins said that the found- Sing of Wewahitchka, which came along about 1870, was founded by people of means and culture. Wewahitchka was a citrus produing area and had many talented and well-to-do people in the area, trying to introduce citrus into the area. "They met with great success until the freeze of 1885, which wiped them out", Adkins said.

J.D. Strader, Pastor. and Rev. David Fernandez, Sectional Presbyter and Pastor of the Public Housin Program Is Changing*- Bud Ware Public housing has changed '- in the past few years and is now changing again, Bud Ware, area public housing .executive told the Rotary Club last Thursday. Public housing is nothing new for the federal govern- fnent. It got into the business :back in 1937, with the North- :west Florida Region authoriz- .ed and organized in 1941. .In the 1960's, the program jbgan to mushroom because of the diversity of the pro- gram. During this time the :'Section 8" program was introduced. "It was both the 'most fraudulent and one of the :best programs the govern- ment has introduced in public S housing", Ware said. "It offered housing to those who really needed it and also had loopholes which allowed it to be abused". Public housing is available to-the poor elderly, disabled, and unmarried with children as well as the poor", Ware said. "During the past 17 years, public housing has changed complexion. While the program was formerly predominantly for families, now the recipients pre pre- dominantly unmarried fe- males with children and still having children". Ware agreed with President Reagan's opinion that some of the programs should be put on hold for a while to allow some more effective guidelines to be brought into play. Ware recommended that there should be some cleaning up of the requirements for public housing to insure hous- ing for those who actually need it. He also recommended that the nation come up with a definition of family life for public housing and welfare purposes. In a program in which he recognized much mis-use, Ware said the program should: be administered with honesty,' fair play and a respect for dignity and for property on the part of both parties. Guests of the club were Cuz Windham of Panama City and Andy May. Resurrection Poem Christ stood by the tomb of Lazarus Who had been four days dead. Deep under a cruel, gouging rock With a napkin around His head. "Behold how He loved him", the wailers moan. Seeing that Jesus wept And ever the winds in the valleys groan, Knowing Him dead and dead alone, No matter who said he slept. "Take away the stone", Jesus said, And Martha, the sister of him who was dead, Trembled because she was so afraid. "Lazarus, come forth", this God-man bade, And he came forth, looking strangely sad. Lazarus came forth as he was bidden, Alive-and a fig for their fears Christ leaned on a tree by the side of the bay, Awonder why His heart was hurting this way- So tight it could burst with tears; And he looked not like a man but a boy Of tender, tranquil years. "I wonder", he mused, "If he's come back to pain, Or to living in dread of dying again? If Lazarus might have decided", he thought, I wonder if he would have come back or not."

The highlight of the after- noon was the wonderful con- cert by the Port St. Joe High School Concert Band, under the direction of Bandmaster Daniel Crews.

Port St. Joe Jr.-Sr. High School BY LESLIE COSTIN ories and offices where child- ren could no longer observe them at work or work along beside them. Isolated from work sites, today's young people's knowledge of the world of work is limited. Shadowing is one way stu- dents may become acquainted with the world of work. Soon after school opened, on the morning of March 26, ninty-eight eleventh grade stu- dents of Port St. Joe High School, were transported to thirty-three businesses, in- dutries, and professional of- fices of their choosing. c, v// ,._ Students were assigned to a particular person to follow during the visit. The students could gain first hand know- ledge of duties, responsibil- ities, advantages and disad- vantages of that particular job or career. Several professionals were unable to complete their plan- ned activities due to special activities, of that profession, which are not, necessarily, an everyday activity. These people have asked that these students be permitted to re- turn at a later date in order to observe these special act- ivities. Evaluations collected from both students and the business community were very posi- tive. Experiences of this type can assist students to make wise decisions about thier future career. This is an experience that will long be remembered by the partici- pants. This activity was made possible through coordinated efforts of Port St. Joe High School Guidance and the Career Education staff. "No one has ever died an., atheist."

I would like to remind parents to see that their children know the safety rules of riding their bicycles, with the main emphasis being on riding on the right side of the road, and using a regulation length flag on the back of the bike. Drivers have a hard time seeing bikers, and it is very important that a bright flag be displayed to let drivers know a biker is on the road," said Mr. Boule.

National Banks Talk MergerWith Alliance Corp. '\ iAt ''* * IN WASHINGTON * * I* WITH * EARL * HUTTO FILLING THE PETROLEUM RESERVE After the Arab oil embargo :in 1973, Conigress later authorized the Strategic Petroleum Reserve in 1975 as a - way for us to help maintain our Soil supply in case of further disruptions. The ultimate goal was to have 1 billion barrels of -oil in storage; 325 million barrels were to be instorage by 1980 and 500 million by 1982. Unfortunately, as of March 20, :there were only 118 million :barrels in the reserve, which is :only enough to replace about :three weeks worth of imported :oil. , The plan has been plagued almost from the start for a number reasons, one being the -tremendously increased cost of oil and another being that for more than a year, between S 1979 and 1980, the Carter administration added no oil to the reserve at all. The Department of Energy : says currently the plan is work- ing again and oil is being :pumped into the reserve at an -annual average of 130,000 barrels a day. The fill rate will be increased later this year so that the average for fiscal year 1981 will be 200,000 barrels a day. President Reagan's fiscal year 1982 budget requests $3.8 billion for the SPR but Dave* Stockman, Director of the Of-, fice of Management and Budget, wants to get $3 billion earmarked for this stockpile taken out of the budget. Seven billion dollars was spent during the 70's for the reserve and it is estimated that it will take about an additional 40 billion dollars to finish it. Some of the leaders in both the Senate and the House Budget committees are also trying to shift this fund out of the budget, and some Members of the House are. coming out with proposals for alternatives. Senator Nancy Landon Kassebaum (R-Kan.) has a plan for the government to continue purchasing oil for the reserve through the first quarter of fiscal year 1982; -after that companies importing oil in large amounts would be required to contribute to the stockpile. The government would pay them 10 percent of the purchase price annually for .11 years. This would relieve some of the drain on the budget. Congressman Phil Gramm (D-Tex.) has introduced a bill to sell "oil bonds" to the public at the going world oil price. The purchaser would. receive the proceeds from the sale of that oil when the reserve was used. However, there would be no annual interest payments. .- The Congressional Budget; Office has -done a study on SPR funding and at the present, time has concluded that prob-- ably the most. efficient method in the long run is to have the government pay for it directly. It is imperative that the oil reserve continue to be filled and maintained in order to help free us from our dependence on foreign oil. .However, the problem needs careful study to arrive at the best. possible solution for the taxpayer's interests.

Florida National Banks of Florida, Inc., announced re- cently that t is holding discussions with Alliance Corporation, which o ns Jacksonville National Bank and its subsidiary, Charter Mortgage Company, regard- ing the possible merger of the two organizations. Any agree- ment would be subject to the approval by the respective Boards of Directors of the two companies and any necessary regulatory approval. Florida National expects to consider this possible merger at its next Board of Directors meet- ing. George Whitner, President of Florida National, said that the Company is aware of various public announcements and SEC filings purporting to express the intention to ac- quire control of Florida National. While the Company has not Received any proposals seek- ing to obtain such control, he said that the Company has discussed such activity 'with Use Phone , for S. S. Business Many people in this area do not seem tobe aware that they can take care of a great deal of their business with social security over the telephone, David Robinson, Social See- urity Representative for Gulf County, said recently. The best time to call social security is after the middle of the month. That is because the first part of the month is usually a very busy time. Of course, if a person has urgent business, he or she should call at any time. The telephone can be used to: apply for social security or supplemental security income payments; apply for Medi- care; find out how to change name or address on social security records; report a lost or stolen check or delayed payment; find out how to replace almost social security or Medicare card; get help in filling our Medicare claims forms; get information about direct deposit of checks; re- quest a statement of social security earnings record; get help in having claims de- cisions reviewed; ask any question about social security or obtain a free publication. The telephone number of the Panama City Social Security Office is 769-4871. To call toll-free from Port St. Joe, dial operator and ask for WX-4444. its legal counsel and its financial advisors in order to determine whether such in- vestors have comp; d with all federal laws and regulations in connection with trans- actions involving Florida National stock. Such research has not been completed to date. Florida National is a multi- bank holding company based in Jacksonville, Florida. S/Sgt. Pittman Completes NCO School Staff Sgt. Hosea D.

The typical pomp and cir- cumstances of the opening session is now over and the serious business of law making has begun. While we have not considered any high- ly controversial bills at this point, there are several issues which I feel will be most important during the next nine weeks. As the session pro- . gresses I will discuss these issues with you through my weekly news letter. The main issue both my staff and I will be studying very closely is the revision of the State's Juvenile Justice Code. The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ralph Haben (D-Palmetto), has created a new select committee for the revision of the juvenile code and we will be watching their progress very closely. I believe that we legislators need to take the responsibility of adopting a juvenile code that will help our young people to understand that they must conform to society rather than letting them believe that they can do what they want in our free society. We must let our potential young offenders know that they must also work within the framework of our democratic society, or else suffer the consequences of breaking the law. To do this, I sincerely believe we must put some teeth back into our juvenile laws, rather than to contin- ually pass laws that simply provide a mild slap on the wrist. As the session progresses, I will be sending out weekly press releases to the local media to advise you of some of the major bills that came up the previous week, plus those that are going I gladly in' or call regar tion for which concerns.
