Eventually we all will be taken for a ride. In England some of the wags refer to the wife of George Fifth as the other four- fifths. Even if you don't or ‘didn’t get any- where it’s a satisfaction to know you did your best. How is it that the Poppy and the Ivy are called tender, when they withstand such rough usage? {The republicans are near-sighted. In- stead'of loodking to 1932 they should cast their eyes toward 1986. j Sere It was a good Friday {fi Key West yes- terday. The relief distribution amounted to $1,280, and Monroe’s apportionment for her schools was announced from Talla- hasset as $2, hci ne, Some euunibes were caught in New York last week and gave as an excuse that they had just started out in business. The district attorney laconically informed them that they were just going out of business. The best evidence that the republicans think they are in a tight place is that while formerly before a general election they boasted of théir oming victory, these same fellows are cautiously stating that Hoover is gaining ground. It is mo use to spur your horse after the winner has crossed the tape; it is just that much energy wasted. A Chicago millionaire encouraged his son to take a vacation twice a year. The father thought the young man would do more and better work in ten months than in twelve. The father evidently himself wise, in this advice, but the son was wiser. He followed the father’s suggestion and took two vacations a year, each for six months. ’ | No finer anteellia of the Mumility One of the most retharkable pages in the history 6f government aid is being writ- ‘ten by the Reconstruction F' ce Cor- | | poration, which, with $3,800, 000, 000° at its ; | sispona: has been lending at the rate of | $5,000,000 a day since last February for ; the relief of the farmers, railroads, insur- | | ance companies, banks, iiding and loafi| associations and the miliins who have a| stake in these institutions. It has no parallel in history anywhere. Nearly a half million farmers have borrowed for crop production’ purpose GIGANTIC GOVERNMENT AID | Banks and trust companies numbering 4,- | | 824 have been aided, in addition to 650 building and loan associations, 80 insurance companies and 50 railroads. And when the government lends to these it is helping every depositor, stockholder, bondholder, policyholder and worker. This amazimyz, progrem has been car- ried out without resort e simple though dangerous expedient of printing millions in new money and without resort to the de- grading and demoralizing dole. What the government has done through the R. F. C. is to use its own credit and borro’ money | to the extent needed, and then to reloan it on good credit and good collateral. On top of this gigantic piece of relief work the R. F. C. has made large loans to the individual states that their unemploy- ment relief programs may not be _ inter- rupted for lack of funds. A conservative estimate places the number of persons who have benefited by this program at a third of the nation’s population. WOMEN DRIVERS SAFER For years women have been subjected to gibes because of their supposed in- feriority as automobile drivers. But a re- cent survey by a national board of casualty underwriters reveals that women drivers figure in far less accidents than men, num- bers considered. Estimates from various sources, i ing government statistics, indicate, that Women constitute approximately ofi rt of the total number of drivers in the coun- try. Yet, while women represent 25 per cent of the number of drivers, last year the; wete involved in only 7.63 per cent of the accidents recorded. In the observance of traffic regula- tions, women made afi ever more impres- sive record. While full statistics are not. available, in a dozen large cities only 2.53 per cent of those char; with violations of traffic rules were w m. While it may be argued that trafficg ficers are more lenient toward women Violators, an inquity addressed to a large number of these of- ficers brought responses decidedly favor- able to the ladies. Of the replies received, 78 per cent of the officers considered women more careful drivers than men; 11 per cent thought women equally careful, and only 11 per cent believed women 16 careful. So, in the face of the reco#a, it appears that women are much safer drivers than men, after], when they are actually at the wheel. “fiow safe they may be as back Seat drivers is an entingy differeat matter. NEWTON'S HUMILITY Gelebiation of the 200th anniversary of the death of Sir Ise Newton recalled many personal anecdotes of the: great natural philosopher. In spite of his tower- ing genius and scientific attainments, New- toh was one of the mo humble of men. As a boy he confessed he “far from industrious and stood very how in his class.” In fact it appears that in his earlier years he had what would be called today ah “inferiority complex,” he lacked con- fidence in himsel§jj The turning point in his career is said to have been when he mustered courage to whip a larger boy who had attacked him without provocation. This success seems to have fed him to greater exertions and #8 became head boy d- Wes THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Listening To Some era oe “enosPERITY J ust Wt TH CORNER eo “FOUR ‘YEARS MORE" KEY West IN DAYS GONE BY Happeiiings Hee Just 10 Yéure Ago Today As Taken From The Files of The Citizen if you were born on tl date 10 years ago, your birth- dsy fell a6 Suiiday. | » J.
