If Ponce de Leon’s Fountain of Youth had just been found to be a fact and not a fiction, it could scarcely have attracted a greater multitude, remarks the editor of a Maryland daily. The Florida land- rush, says another Southern edit, is admittedly “the most remark- able boom of its kind in the history of such booms.” Those on the sport report the motor-roads of the Peninsular State crowded with cars from every State in the Union, while added streams of humanity arrive by train and steamship. The roadsides are dotted with tent- colonies of tourists and fortune-scekers. We read of a new frontier and a new type of pioneer. But the dangers inherent in all boom conditions are not lacking in this case, and leading Floridians are themselves warning investors to be on their guard against land-sharks and “blue sky” schemers operating in the name of the State, within and without its borders. A Florida delegation led by Gov. John W. Martin recently asked for the cooperation of the New York press in curbing fraudulent schemes designed to trade upon public interest in Florida’s wave of pros- perity. The Governor remarked that if investors used “a quarter as much intelligence” in their dealings concerning Florida as in the or- dinary run of their business, the danger of being victimized by swind- lers would be slight. In behalf of his native State he pleaded earn- estly for the truth and nothing but the truth. “Florida has too much at stake to permit crooked dealings in real estate,” remarks the Jacksonville Florida Times - Union, which tells us that it was a Florida advertising club that procured Federal ac- tion against a band of alleged Chicago swindlers in Florida real es- tate. Twelve hundred curbstone brokers, a Miami dispatch tells us, were run out of Florida in one week. “Land swindlers and specula- tors have done great damage to Florida and its legitimate enter- prises and must be put out of business if the State is not to have a setback,” says the Washington Post. The leading feature-story in The Literary Digest this week, Oc- tober 24 issue, deals with the land rush to Florida. It presents the subject from every angle and will be read with vast interest by the American public. , How to Make Prohibition Succeed T HE SUCCESS OF PROHIBITION enforcement depends, in the last analysis, not so much en legislation and force, as on edu- cation and moral suasion, concludes the Rev. F. Ernest John- son, who wrote the recently published report of the Department of Research and Education of the Federal Council of Churches on Pro- hibition, and now gives his personal views on the situation of Prohi- bition and Public Morals of they Digest this week. After the Fed- eral Government has done its part in effectually drying up the sour- ces of supply which come within its jurisdiction, the rest depends upon the education of the people in the moral and economic signifi- cance of Prohibition. This opinion is shared by Dr. Samuel McCrea Cavert, general secretary of the Federal Council, and other “dry” leaders, who find in the much-discussed report not an invitation to modify the Volstead Law, but a challenge to the friends of the Eigh- teenth Amendment to redouble their efforts for its successful en- forcement. But there are other “dry” leaders to whom that report is but a sly truckling to “wet” opinion, ill-timed and ill-founded, and the Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Publig Morals of the Methodist Episcopal Church disclaims it altogether.
