Raffield Loans Studied.,

Another $1 Million Should be Available In Septembe


Loans to finance the re-building of
Raffield Fisheries after a disastrous
fire destroyed the huge fisheries
operation last fall are finally falling
into place.
According to Nolan Treglown,
Gulf County's representative on the
Apalachee Regional Development
Authority, Inc., the authority, an arm
. of the.Apalachee Planning..Council,
approved a loan interest, rate last
Wednesday for the fishery to borrow
$1 million in construction funds from a
federal source.
Treglown said the money would
be in addition to a state development
loan of $670,000, which has already
been approved and. is now awaiting
the distribution of funds.
Under the new loan program, the
Apalachee committee sets the loan
rate, the re-payment schedule, and


then makes application to the Econ-
omic Development Administration in
SAtlanta for final approval. Treglown
said the local committee has reason-
able assurances the loan will be
approved by the federal agency and
the authority is presently at work
,--preparinig the. application to be
presented to EDA on about July 10.
"*We have until July 18- toesubrhit the -
application", Treglown said, "but we
feel we will have it in a few days early
on the 10th."
Treglown said the.application will
be funded by September 30, if it is
approved.
Raffield, the third largest em-.
ployer in Gulf County, has been
struggling to put a financial package
together to get back into full produc-
tion since the fire swept the process-
ing plant on the banks of the Gulf


County Canal last fall. The fir
completely leveled the processing
complex and burned much of thi
equipment of the firm. "We didn'
have nearly enough insurance to
cover our losses", Raffield told Thi
Star earlier. "You never expect a
disaster like this and there's io way
you can get prepared to meet it."
-Treglown said theiternest rate
was set by the Apalachee Authority
this past week end for application to
the $1 million loan. He said the rate
will be a fixed percentage over a
period of 14 years, but the rate will
float until the loan is finally approved
The local banker, and member of the
Authority said the rate will be four
percentage points below treasury
securities, "which aren't to be confus-
ed with Treasury Bills", TregloWn

A huge fireworks display will be the, climax of a July
Fourth holiday here in Port St, Joe today (Thursday). The
Volunteer Fire Department will be firing off the several
pieces of pyrotechnics just after it gets dark, to mark the
y' observance of Independence Day.
e The fireworks display has been purchased by the City
s - Commission for celebration of the holiday, which has /

a displays of fireworks. The display Thursday night is
s- becoming a tradition here in Port St. Joe once again, as
s this is the fourth year in a row the display has been
it presented:

o i ' An invitation is open to everyone to attend the special
fireworks show and enjoy themselves. There is no
admission charge, nor donations received. The display is
put on for the pleasure and enjoyment of the entire county
by the City of Port St. Joe.
The fireworks presentation over the past three years
have drawn huge crowds to the City Park area at the
intersection of Fifth Street and Highway 98, beside the
"" Florida National Bank. Large crowds gathered at the park
last year to witness the firing off of the salutes and rockets,
but crowds have also gathered all along Highway 98, where
a vantage point is available of the park area, all the way to
Oak Grove, to witness the display.
The City has purchased a package from the fireworks
manufacturer for the activities Thursday. After the many
r rockets, bombs and salutes have been set off, the program
will feature, as its finale, a huge fireworks display of the
.e American flag.
g The Volunteer Fire Department will be in charge of
e igniting the several items. They will be stationed along the
t causeway leading to the City Pier. Fire Chief Mark Collier
, says the department asks that spectators stay out of the
e .firing area, because there is some danger involved to
a .people who might not know what to expect from the
y procedure. The fireworks are shot from large mortars
which could prove to be a danger to spectators. "Just stay
e- --back-i the park area and enjoysthe show", Collier said.
y ,The fireworks will be aimed over the waters of St
S' Josep Bay to even further minimize any possible accident
e or damage from the explosives. The Fire Department will
i have the lfring area roped off in order to keep the general
l public frod the firing .area.
The disjlay.is designed as a good show for everyone
and a relaxed atmosphere.
As they have done in the past couple of years, the lions
Club will man a refreshment booth at the park, selling
hamburgers, hot dogs and cold drinks from their booth,
beginning at 5:00 p.m.


The Veterans of Foreign Wars will also be operating a
refreshment booth in the park area. The VFW will be
preparing and selling hot dogs, cold drinks, snow cones,
coffee, baked goods, etc.
BLAST-OFF TIME
According to City Clerk Alden Farris, there is still no
definite time to begin the display. "Just as soon as it gets
dark enough, the firing will begin", he said; The firing
should get underway at near 9:00 p.m., and will last for
about a half hour.


Water, Sewer


Lines Going In,


Roads Cleared


Work is progressing in a
tangible way this week on the
preparation work for opening
up 81 new residential lots on
the southern edge of the City.
Clearing, putting in water
and sewer services and open-
ing up new. and extended
streets for paving have occu-
pied contractors for the past
month.
This week, crews started
laying water and sewer lines
in the new areas, which are
located on Gautier Memorial
Lane, on the southern edge of
the City and just north of Oak
Grove. The other section of
"new lots is on the extension of
Marvin, Garrison and Forest
Park Avenues, south of 20th
Street.
Workmen are presently
installing 8,500 lineal feet of
six inch water main; 7,200
feet of eight inch sanitary
sewer; two sewage lift sta-
tions; 955 feet of four inch
force main and 4,400 feet of
paving.
The project is expected to
be completed by late fall of
this year.
The new property is being
opened up by St. Joseph Land
and Development Company
with the preparation work
being done by T&A Utilities
of Panama City.
The newly prepared resi-
dential areas are the first
sizeable openings in the City
since the opening of Bellamy
Circle some 20 years ago and
Millville Addition a couple of
years later.

We Made A
Mistake
Last week's issue of The
Star stated that a Writ of
Mandamus had been filed
against Gulf County for Gulf
Coast Utilities, Inc., by at-
torney Pat Floyd of Port St.
Joe.
The Star, like several
other news media in the area,
drew the conclusion that
since Floyd had been repre-
senting the utility firm, he
had also filed the Mandamus.
The assumption was incor-
rect.
The Mandamus was drawn
and filed by the law firm of
*Ervin, Varn, Jacobs, Odom
and Kitchen of Tallahassee.
Gulf Coast Utilities, Inc., is
also a Tallahassee firm.
The Star is regretful of the
error and hopes this explana-
tion sets the matter straight.

Teachers Credit Union doub-
led the number of customers
in the Wewahitchka area.
"We have an obligation to
make it as convenient as we
possibly can for these mem-
bers to have the use of their
credit union", Adkins said.
St. Joe Papermakers and
Gulf County Teachers Fed-
eral credit unions merged a
little more than a month ago,
combining assets of nearly
$12 million and a member-
ship of approximately 3,600.
. "The merger was approv-
ed by the National Credit
Union Administration in
May", Adkins said. "The
merging of the two groups
was approved by the direc-
tors of both organizations a
short time ago."
Adkins said plans for the
opening of the Wewahitchka
branch office and merger
talks with Gulf Teachers
started in late February.

Today Is Our



Country's Birthday


,/


Today, we all join in celebrat-
ing the July Fourth holiday. As
preposterous as it may seem, there
are probably some among us who
do not know what the July Fourth
holiday signifies.
We believe, however, that the
most of our people know July
Fourth marks the day when this
nation came into being, becoming
the first nation in the world in
which the people made the deci-
sions about the important things. It
has remained so, until this day.
Attacks on that freedom have not
diminished over the 200 plus years
we have existed as a nation and
.they are not likely to diminish in
`-the future. It is to our credit that
"the entire world envies and wants
=their own nation to emulate the
Pattern set by this one-sixth of the
world's population.
Our nation is unique. It is a
=bother to a world which would like
-for us to resort to the simpler
method of being governed by a
king, a dictator, a despot or a
greedy man. Such a system on our
' part would make it less trouble-
some for them to explain to their
people why our system works and
theirs' doesn't.
One of the problems such a
system would erase for us would be
the current and on-going problem

good to us that we have a holiday

July 4 is an important day - a
day to be revered, remembered

Mad Dad

Writes
Dear Wesley:
I am writing this letter in
hopes you will print it in The
Star. I would like everyone in
St. Joe to know that we have
a dictator running the coach-
ing staff at St. Joe High.
My son, Tommy, who will
be a Senior next year, was
told by Mr. Shaw Maddox
that he could not play football 0
next year because he did not
go out for Spring practice. I
went to school and graduated
at St. Joe High, and I have
never heard of a kid who was
told that he could not play
any sport f6r that reason.
Last year I know one per-
sonally that did this and still
played. The boy was punish-
ed for that, but was not told
he could not play at all.
I think the Coach could
have discipline, but after a
kid has worked three or four
years I think he should be
able to play, and not be cut
completely off the team.
Shaw told me in his office
last year that he really was
depending on Tommy this
coming year. I wonder what
changed his mind? Could it
be the three new boys that I
understand are coming here
this year from Bay County?
Whatever the reason, I think
the people in St. Joe should
read this in The Star and let
them know what is going on.
Since I have been voting,
-and paying taxes probably O
more years than he is old, I
think Mr. Maddox should
have to answer to someone
for his.actions. People don't
get excited if it isn't their kid,
but the next one could be
their's or someone kin to
them. So why not get it
straight to where his salary
comes from.
Yours truly,

Do You Get A "Real Breakfast" Every Morning, Or An Imitation?


DO YOU GET a real breakfast
every morning or do you get an
imitation breakfast?
Most of the time I get an imitation
breakfast and I have come to nearly
like it. The reason I have given in and
foregone my more desired fare of
bacon i or sausage), eggs, grits, toast,
etc., is that there just. isn't enough
-. time most mornings at our house to fix
Sa real breakfast. Frenchie and I both
are trying to get off to work and by the
time we do all that has to be done in
order to get ready, there just isn't
enough time to heat up the cook stove.
That means my breakfast fare
has degraded from the more hearty
fare to what they call a "continental"
breakfast.
S I believe they call it that because
i it isn't worth a continental. . .if you
, get my drift.
- Continental breakfasts consist of
- anything which doesn't have to be
cooked. Almost anything is fair game
for breakfast in a continental break-
fast. Almost anything is fair game for
breakfast, that is, except breakfast.
They tell me breakfast is our most
important meal of the day. That may


be, and if it is, we're sure neglecting
the most important meal of the day
around our house.

breakfast as a subject this week is
that I read last Thursday where
one of my brothers in the same state
(of mind or vocation-take your pick)
wrote about his affinity for having a
big bowl of "Continental" just before
he went to bed at night. I eat cereal in
the morning because I have to at
times, but I can't imagine anyone
eating it because they want to.
This paper pusher says he eats a
big bowl full each night and the more


bark for the neighbors. If. I were
reading a cereal box, unless it was a
box of rice krispies, there would be no
reaction at all.
Compared to reading the label on


esley R. Ramsey


read anything, at any time, for any
length of time. While eating his
nightly portion of puffed pseudo food,
he likes to sit and read the label on the
box.
Hot dog! Talk about your fun and
excitement!
I go him one better. I get to let the
dog out for a nightly stroll just before
going to bed at night. At least the dog
jumps up and down with glee at the
thought of getting to go outside and


a cereal box, there is pandemonium at
my house when bed time comes.

I REMEMBER EATING cereal
when I was a kid, too. Eating cereal
was a treat, then, because it came
from the store. The usual breakfast of
eggs came from the chicken yard and
I had to clean the caramel off the eggs
after they were brought in. That
makes them pretty hard to eat.
Momma made biscuits and milk


gravy every morning, so that was no
special treat. The bacon came out of
the bottom of the big casket crate
where we had salted the hog, which
sort of takes the edge off a hunger for
bacon.
The main reason I liked cereal
when I was a kid is because there was
always something you could do with
the carton besides read the label.
When I was a-kid, the box top of a
cereal box was always good for a free
gift of some sort. If it wasn't, you just
had to save it until you had several
more and then get your premium.
Wheaties always had a Jack Arm-
strong decoder ring or some invisible
spy ink or a code book you could get
with a box top or two and 25c to cover
postage and handling.
Post's corn flakes, known as
"Post Toasties" always had an
Orphan Annie ring, a secret whistle
which only animals could hear, a
Buck Rogers space ship toy or any
number of toys. Quaker's Oatmeal
came with the prize in the box. There
was no waiting. Of course, the prize
wasn't as exotic or mysterious
sounding as those premiums you sent


in for. The men who described them
must have made a fortune in salary
because kids like me would badger
our parents to the point of distraction
to buy a certain kind of cereal. Not so
we could eat the cereal, but so w@b
'could get the box top and get that
valuable prize.

THAT'S ONE OF the reasons my
breakfast diet has changed from toast
and fruit to corn flakes. Kellogg's has
hit upon the idea of putting a package
of M and M candies in the large
economy package of corn flakes.
Frenchie likes M and M's better
than she likes me, so guess what I will
be eating for breakfast for the rest of
this year. I'm almost afraid to try and
figure out how long it will take me to
eat two pounds of corn flakes just so
Frenchie can get an ounce of M and
Ms.
Frenchie is after me every day to
hurry up . . . eat more . . . eat
regularly. There is no hint of helping
me get rid of that giant size box of
corn flakes.
I wonder if I worried my mother
that much?

Wants to Clarify


. Dear Mr. Ramsey:
I agree with- the. basic
'" premise of your. editorial on.
Sthe need for zoning. Hdvw-
ever, I feel.a need to shed
f" some light on the particular
case you mentioned.
. The house where the busi-
ness was to be established
has had two businesses in it
in the past. The proprietor
did not live in the house.-
The photography business
would be on a part time basis
Sand would be .run by a
housewife. There would ;be
someone .living in the, up-
stairs portion of the house.'
With our county having one
of the highest unemployment
rates .in Florida, it would
behoove us all to get the facts
straight before discouraging
new businesses from estab-
lishing in our areas .'

Predict 39 to Die on Highway


The Florida Highway Patrol
has predicted 39 persons will die in
traffic related 'accidents over the
Independence Day holiday. period
which begins at 6:00 P.M., Wednes-
day, July 3, and ends midnight
Sunday, July 7.' This prediction is
based on the number of fatalities
experienced during the same period
oVer the' last three years.
"Approximately one-half of the.
39. will. die in' alcohol related,
accidents and the vast majority will'
not use the seat belt available, to
them", stated Colonel Bobby R.


Burkett, Patrol Director, "in other
words, one person will die every two
hours and thirty-seven minutes of
the 102 hour period and yet only an
estimated 15; percent of the motor-
ing public will use the one most
important life saving item available
to them- their seat belt".
Patrol 'records indicate that
most of the predicted deaths will
occur ,on rural state roads during
nighttime liours' and clear'weather,
' A majority. ,f "those killed will be
males under 30 years of age. a'
Colonel Burkett continued to


say, "The major objective of this
department is the reduction of
needless death and injury that
results from traffic accidents.
Troopers will be especially watchful
for the impaired driver during this
holiday period".

"Motorists should contact the
nearest Florida Highway Patrol
Station with information concerning
any impaired driver they may see in
order that our .troopers may take
appropriate action," concluded
Colonel Burkett.

said. He said that with the
present rate of Treasury
securities, Raffield's rate
would be approximately 6.5
to 7 percent.
The, Authority also re-
quired that Raffield must
provide matching funds for
the $1 million loan and have
stipulated a $338,000 match.
The loan is the Authority's
first venture into the
business of providing finan-
cing to preserve jobs in the
Panhandle. Preserving of


many jobs is the criteria
which makes Raffield eligi-
ble for the loan.
Raffield has already start-
ed some re-building of their
sprawling complex and con-
tinue to operate on a limited
basis,. using facilities in
neighboring cities as well as
the limited facilities they
have been able to re-build,.
The Authority will manage
the development fund much
as a board of directors, mak-
ing any money realized from
repayments of loans to make
future loans to firms which

"Why do Tyndall aircraft
fly so low over my house?
Why can't you fly over the
Gulf of Mexico? The noise is
a nuisance; is it .really
necessary?" These questions
are sometimes asked by area
citizens about flying activi-
ties at Tyndall. The answers
depend on two factors-*
safety and mission.
"We are very sensitive to
the problems of aircraft
noise to our neighbors," said
Col. H. Hale Burr Jr.,
commander of the 325th
Tactical Training Wing, at
the base. "When possible, we
avoid residential areas for
our .take-off, and landing
patterns. Our overland mis-
sions are also restricted to

those necessary to complete
our training programs. How-
ever, sometimes they can't
be avoided. We must ensure
safety in our flying activities
and provide the training to
make our aircrews combat
ready. This sometimes re-
quires overland flights and
we appreciate the under-
standing.. of local residents
when this happens."
According to Colonel Burr,
Tyndall's runways run paral-
lel to the coastline and that
dictates the flight path for
takeoffs and landings. When
approaching Tyndall, pilots
fly patterns within an area
about 20 miles around the
base and parallel tQ the
runway. This is required for
safety and by Federal Avia-
tion Administration regula-
tions. During poor weather,
these approaches are much
longer than needed in good
weather and may start far'
from the base.
Safety precautions also re-
quire that pilots approach the
base and land into the wind.,
Therefore, most landings are
from the east, because of the
prevailing winds. This is also

the desired approach, as it
avoids highly populated
areas and any conflicts with
the air traffic around the
Panama City airport.
Colonel Burr said only 20
percent of landings at the
base are from the west.
However, when this happens
due to the prevailing winds,
communities west of the base
and along the coastline will
hear additional aircraft
noise. Thus, downtown Pana-
ma City and beach area
residents will normally ex-
perience increased noise only
during poor weather, with
winds blowing from the east.
Other overland flights are
dictated by mission require-
ments. Tyndall conducts sev-
eral Tactical Air Command
exercises and training pro-
grams to ensure combat-
ready aircrews. Most of this
flying is in a large range over
the Gulf of Mexico. However,
there is a, smaller overland

Most homeowners are look-
ing for economical ways to
replace or increase their
selection of house plants. One
way is by propagation. Pro-
pagation, which is the word
for reproducing plants, often
scares people, but it should
not. Simply, it means obtain-
- .ing new plants from old ones

.'+~ . , n . *,'this is done, all relatively
S-simple. Many different plant
S parts can be used, including

Edcie Haddock, Eddie Smith, Warren Yeager, Chris Butts, these parts.
Rev. Dave Fernandez, Sammy Young and David Player. Not h
pictured are team members Jimmie Gainnie and Ed Bond. There are two basic me-
thods of plant propagation:
sexual, by seed; and vegeta-
tive, or asexual, by means of
S some vegetative part such as
a shoot, root or leaf.
House plants are seldom
,-propagated from seed. Most
house plants, particularly
foliage plants, are not grown
in an environment conducive
to flowering. The inadequate
light, high night tempera-
turd, ana low humidity found
in most homes does not favor
the build-up of carbohydrate
needed to initiate flowers.
Therefore, few of the plants
lower and produce viable
seed. .
'The most comnion and
satisfactory method to pro-
pagate house plants is from
cuttings. A cutting is a
portion of a plant taken from
0. '.' a parent plant. There are
many types of cuttings, but

appear in about two weeks.
When the new shoots are two
to three inches high they can
be transplanted.
African violets and gloxin-
ias can be propagated using
entire leaf (leaf blade plus
petiole) cuttings. Cut the leaf
from the plant leaving 1-1 /
inches of petiole attached to
the leaf. The leaf cutting
should be stuck into the
rooting medium only deep
enough to keep the cutting
upright, and at an angle.
Most house plants root well
from a stem cutting. Cuttings
of four to six inches in length
should be taken from
healthy, vigorously growing
plants. Make a clean cut,
about 1/4 to L2 inches below a
node (joint) with a sharp
knife.- Avoid crushing the
stem. Remove from leaves
from one to two inches above
the cut end of the cutting.

and reduces water loss from
the cutting.
To hasten rooting, you can
dip the cut end in a rooting
' hormone. Stick the cutting in
a rooting medium about 1 to
11,2 inches deep and firm the
medium so that the cutting
remains upright.
Stem cutting .can be rooted
in plastic bags or in contain-

but prevents loss of water.
The cuttings shQuld not" re-

lead to chaos marketing of new drugs as well as
resulting inevitably in a serious public health hazard.
w Counterfeit drugs are made illegally without any w

subject to harmful contamination. A pharmacy only
purchases their stocks of drugs from legal and

Interstate Part of National Defense


America's interstate sys-
tem, a 43.785 mile network of
superhighways linking major
cities from coast to coast, has
become part of the national
lifestyle.
Distances once considered
major journeys are now an
afternoon jaunt.
Interstate 10, spanning
Florida's Panhandle, serves
as the western gateway to the
Sunshine State and carries
millions of tourists across the
Panhandle every year.
Interstate 10 is also in the
midst of an extensive re-
habilitation program involv-
ing 17 projects at a cost of
$72.5 million over a five-year
period.
Sixty-five miles have been
completed or are under con-
struction with eight projects
scheduled for completion in
1985.
The rehabilitation effort,
funded with 90 percent fed-
eral dollars and 10 percent
state monies, calls for a
completely new roadway sur-
face in some sections and
repair work to drainage and
joints in others.
The formal name of the
road network is the National
System of Interstate and
Defense Highways, a name
that hints at the system's
beginnings.
Shortly after World War I,
General of the'Armies John
"Blackjack". Pershing sub-
mitted a map to the Bureau
of Public Roads (forerunner
of the Federal Highway
Administration) outlining
routes considered important
in time of war.
Pershing's map coincided
with BPR's own proposed
Federal Aid Highway System
and in 1921 Congress passed
the Federal Aid Highway
Act. Unfortunately, the act
provided no funding sources
for the proposed system and
plans remained on the shelf.
While the U.S. was waiting.


for funding of the interstate
system, Nazi Germany was
moving ahead with the Auto-
bahn Highway System. Some
merits of the system were
demonstrated to General
Dwight D. Eisenhower dur-
ing World War II and helped
in the decision to fund the
program during his presi-
dential administration.
However, it was not until
another World War and the
chilling climate of the cold
war with the Soviet Union
that Congress passed the
Federal Aid Highway Act of
1956.
The 1956 legislation includ-
ed some. key provisions.
First, it formally recognized
the importance of the inter-
state system by expanding
its official name to "National
System of Interstate and
Defense Highways."
Secondly, the act establish-
ed the Highway Trust Fund,
a user tax revenue source to
fund interstate and other
federal aid highway projects.
(Up until that time, all
highway projects were fi-
nanced from the general
fund.)
The act also established
the 90-10 federal-state share
formula for funding the inter-
state system.
Shortly after enactment of
the 1956 legislation, Ameri-
can Association of State
Highway and Transportation
Officials (AASHTO) prepar-
ed interstate design stand-
ards.
Most of the present day
system was built to those
standards. Included in the
AASHTO standards were
control of access; at least
four lanes of traffic with
medians; 12 foot driving
lanes and 10 foot shoulders;
no highway or railway inter-
sections; specific design
speeds for varying terrain;
and minimum widths for
bridges.


Schlickman Named As

National Aide-de-Camp


William R. Schlickman of
Port St. Joe, VFW Post 10069,
has been appointed by VFW
National Commander-in-
Chief Billy Ray Cameron of
Sanford, N.C., to serve as a
National Aide-de-Camp, Re-
cruiting Class for 1985.
Cameron, head of the two
million member organization
of overseas veterans com-
mented, "It is because of the
tireless efforts of civic and
patriotic minded citizens like
Comrade Schlickman that
the veterans and communi-
ties the VFW serves have
been affected in a positive


manner."
"Our programs touch
every citizen in the commu-'
nity, they help the young, the
old, the Vietnam veteran and
the World War I veteran. I
am pleased to make 'this
appointment because I know
Comrade Schlickman will do
an outstanding job for the
VFW, the veteran and the
community."

View Slides
Rotarian . Bill Crawford
gave his fellow club mem-
bers a slight "feel" for the
Eightieth Rotary Interna-
tional Convention last Thurs-
day, as he showed several
slides and narrated the high-
lights of the convention.
Held in Kansas City,
Missouri, the convention was
'presided over by RI presi-
dent, Carlos Consego, of
Monterey, Mexico.
Crawford attended the
international convention, on
May 26 through 29 of this
year. "It was an experience a
person would never forget",
Crawford said.
Next Thursday, the club
will install its new officer
slate for the coming fiscal
year. Rotary in Port St. Joe
begins its fiscal year on July
1. The new president will be
Jim McNeill, III.


Presently, work has been
completed on 42.307 miles of
the 43,785 mile system. Of the
1,478 remaining miles, 104
are in Florida. Included in
the remaining mileage is the
74 mile stretch of Interstate
75 known as "Alligator Al-
ley." Florida has 1,456 miles
of interstate.
The system carries 20
percent of all passenger
vehicle traffic and 51 percent
of all truck traffic.


The National Defense Sys-
tem of Interstate Highways

purpose: to serve the civilian
needs for long distance social

As I write this some forty
Americans are still being held
hostage by Shiite Moslems in
Beirut. This cowardly act of in-
ternational terrorism is an attack
against Americans everywhere
and, at the proper time, we
must exact retribution and
punishment.
Justice Minister Nabih Berri,
a Shiite himself, claims to have
the Americans in custody for
their own protection. He may
turn out to be our people's
savior in this case or he may be
the ringleader of the terrorists.
We all remember the horror
of Iran and the fact that our
hostages were held for 13
months. We simply cannot per-
mit this to happen again. The
Shiites have already killed one
American, Navy diver Robert
Stethem, in.cold blood. We
must expect that they are
willing to kill any or all of the
remaining hostages unless their
demands are met.
Israel holds approximately
700 Shiites at this time. While
there may be a question as to
why they are being held without
charges, the fact remains that
the United States cannot ask
Israel to release them now. To
do so would be to invite ter-
rorists to attack -Americans
anytime a government friendly
to the United States takes
.action the terrorists do not like.
If they want U.S. cooperation
in obtaining the release of the
700, they must first release all of
the Americans being held. We
can talk to the terrorists but we
must never surrender to them.
President Reagan, quite cor-
rectly, has place a travel ad-
visory for Americans traveling
to Greece and Athens. The
Athens airport has been the
scene of many hijackings in
recent years .and the lives of
foreigners traveling through that
airport cannot be guaranteed.
The Greek government must
.accept some measure of re-


sponsibility for the initial hi-
jacking.
The United States is envied
around the world and Ameri-
cans, because they are free and
open people, make convenient
targets for terrorists. At one
time, the fear of American
retribution was enough to in-
sure safety for our citizens and
that guarantee must be in place
once again.
We must do all within ourt
power to obtain the release of
our citizens and we must con-
vince terrorists that they cannot
mess with Americans without
paying a price.
I will support President
Reagan in his actions and
believe it is a time for all
Americans to speak with one
voice. The President must have,
and deserves, our support
during this crisis.
There will be those who will
second-guess his decisions and
there will be time for reflection
later on. For now, we must pray
for the safe return of our people
and lend our support to our
President in his efforts to secure
their release and take action
against international terrorism.



This week's top business
news is the report that leading
banks have dropped their prime
lending rate to 91/2 percent. This
is the lowest level in almost
seven years.
This lower rate, if it lasts,
could spur business investment
and lead to lower rates for home
mortgages and car loans as
well.
Housing starts are down,
again, and the lower rate could
be extremely good news for
potential homebuyers and
homebuilders as well.
Our economic recovery con-
tinues, but at a slow pace, and
we all look to signs that the
upswing will continue.
