TO KEY WEST’S INTERESTS The Citizen has heard several Key Westers inquire, “How are we going to vote for Roosevelt if his name is not on the ballot?” While that question can be answered rightly by the great majority of voters, yet there are some who are not familiar with balloting in a presidential election, and it is to them this information is given. Vote for the first seven names on the ballot and you will be voting for Roosevelt. The names are: Willard W. Ayres George M. Dorman William Fairbanks Herbert W. Fishler ' W.-B. Lanier 1 G. T. MeClellen Hugh C. Sparkman Those are the names, though there is no need of memorizing them. You may be assured you are voting for Roosevelt if you put crosses before the FIRST seven names on the ballot. In, marking those crosses, be sure you ‘do not vote for more than seven, because, if you do, your vote for the presidential elec- tors will not be counted, and if you vote for less than seven, it will be counted only for those before whose names you have marked crosses. There is another important thing about the ballot with which all voters favoring the democratic party should be in- formed. Two candidates with names almost exactly alike are running for office, one of them a democrat and the other a_ repub- lican. The-democrat is W. V. Knott, who is running for state treasurer and has no op- position. The republican is A. F. Knotts, who is opposing J. M. Lee, the democratic nomi- nee for comptroller. The Citizen firmly believes that it is to the great advantage of this community for Key Westers to vote the democratic ticket. “ If the republicans are successful nationally, it will undoubtedly result in the Yeappointment of Secretary of the Navy ‘Adams, who was adamant in his deter- mination that the Key West navy yard be closed, while, at the same time, he revoked orders to close navy yards in two normally sepublican eastern states. With Adam's continuing at the head of the navy department, there is no hope of the local yard’s being reopened, whereas, if Roosevelt is elected, efforts to put the yard in commission again may meet with Buccess, In the case of the candidates for gov- ernor, The Citizen believes it is to the in- terests of Key West to vote for Dave Sholtz, a former Key Wester, who is familiar with the conditions confronting this city and will do all he can conscien- tiously to improve them. ’ At this particular time it is appropriate to repeat that The Citizen is a democratic newspaper, and published by a democrat. | political seers arise and send out predic-! | ; at the polls, with the idea of | R 1932 | THE POLITICAL FINALE At every election, the prophets and tions of the result of the voting. The great majority of these ante-election prophe-‘es ! are as a rule mere guesses, or claims by the leaders of one party or another of victory influencing those last-minute voters who are mainly in- terested in being with the winners of the election. Of late years, however, the custom of ; of | the country has provided considerable data, ; taking straw votes in various sections of a more or less valuable nature, on which men experienced in political affairs have been able to foretell the ultimate rusult of the election with a fair degree of ac- curacy. The most pretentious of these polls is | that conducted by the Literary Digest. Newspaper polls in various sections of the country have proved of value in predicting local results. Polls taken by the political organ- izations themselves are not generally made public. If there is any value to straw votes, President Hoover is a badly beaten candi- date. The republican leaders privately claim only 57 electoral votes for him, whatever they may say in public. Tt is possible that he will only carry three states, with 28 electoral votes. This, to all intents and purposes is a revolution. It is an uprising of the people against | the interests that have been in control. It is a tribute to the virtue of our style of government that such a revolution is pos- sible by means of the ballot instead of by means of the sword. President Hoover is not entirely to blame. He has been a little obstinate in spots, but the real rebellion at this election is the rebellion of the people against their arrogant rulers. It is a revolution of men against money. All over the country the result will be the election of democrats to office every- where. The next house of representatives will have so many democrats that they will be in one another’s way. The senate will also be democratic by a comfortable majority. The various states will in all prob- ability have democratic governors and democratic legislatures where they . are voted on this year. When March 4th comes along, the new president will find his greatest prob- lem the education and control of a vast army of inexperienced officials. But the country insists on the change and it will probably be for the best. The magic of first love is our ignor- ance that it can ever end. After tomorrow there will be a lot of “forgotten men.” State Press of Florida Enjoys Meet.— Headline. And “meat”, too It is customary for decent newspapers to treat the mouthings of scurrilous sheets with silent contempt. We have with us today, Glenn Skip- per, former republican national committee- man, a friend of Key West. A Maine lady, 106 years old, attributes her long life to always minding her own business. Reformers think she has paid a terrible price. That President Hoover should make a political speech on Sunday was a surprise to many. To continue his political bitter- ness even on the Lord’s day was at least ill- advised. Henry Ford, automobile manufac- turer; Norman Thomas, Socialist candidate for the presidency; and Will Rogers, funny | man, failed to register. Slackers in citizenry. It sometimes happens that an English surname when pronounced means some- | thing else, and that sometimes objection-} able, in a foreign tongue. There is an in- stance, once, when an American ambassa- dor found St. Petersburg closed to him on account of his name. Spain, also, once re- fused an American ambassador on account } of his name. Yes, there is something in a name. =... Subscribe for The Citizen—20¢ THE KEY WEST CITIZEN The Last Round KEY WEST IN DAYS GONE BY Happenings Here Just 10 Years} Daily Cross-word Puzzle ACROSS 6.
