THE KEY WEST CITIZEN WILL always seek the trath and print it witaout fear and without favor; never be afraid to attack wrong or to applaud right; always fight for progress; never be the or- gan or the mouthpiece of any person, clique, faction or class; always do its utmost for the public welfare; never tolerate corruption or inj~stice; denounce vice and praise virtue; commend good done by individual or organ- ization; tolerant of others’ rights, views and opinions; print only news thet will elevate nd hor contaminate the reader; never com promise with principle. “Every governmental officer or board that handles public money should publish at regular intervals an accounting of it, showing where and how each dollar is spent. We hold this to be a fundamental princinle of democratic government.” There are newspapers which indulge in the practice of continuing to run adver- tisements after they have been ordered “out. Such advertisements serve the repre- hensible purpose of acting as decoys to “jute other advertisers. Just another racket. Imagine the beautiful, ethereal and spirituelle Norma Shearer ‘turning “cart- wheels,” at a party. Another disillusion- ment, when will they cease? But if any- body ever tells ts the George Washington cherry tree stofy is a myth, we'll knock his block off. The secretary of Congressman Ruth Bryan Owen is authority for the statement that the elimination of Rosenthal is’ the major obstable in securing the loan for the construction of the bridges, Though it is intimated that this obstruction once re- moved dees not assure the immediate granting of the loan. .» = An editor can print something - nice about a man and he won’t even say thank you. But let the editor print something the man doesn't like and he will call around at the office and jaw for an hour.—Times- Union. Human nature is the same every- where. The Citizen has experienced this phase of it many times. Years ago there was a newspaper published in Texas which constantly in- veighed against the county and city offi-| cials for their inability to run the public business according to their preconceived notions, When it finally gave up the ghost, it was shown to have been a miser- ably conducted business owing many! in town and out—it hadn't even paid . the ER. 1932, $10.00 | 6.00 AN AMIABLE COURT Lawyers will frown on any suggestion that the United States Supreme Court is | affected by public sentiment. Lawyers as | a professional class are very jealous of any | criticism of their courts. The lawyers sup- | ; Port, the courts and the courts support the H | lawyers. But the public has every reason to | suspect that some of our highest courts | } and some of our ablest judges, are of aj | | most amiable disposition where the ques- | tions are those of paternalism and the de- i | cisions that are to be rendered merely af- | duet. | There is every reason for believing | that if the congress amends the Volstead | law, our courts, with an eye to the correc-! tion of a great error, will find abundant reason to re-affirm their idea that congress has sufficient power to enact that will correct an popular situation. There seems little danger that the | | Supreme Court will reverse any decision | in this matter that the congress may Sd cide to make. TOO MUCH THEORY legislation intolerant and ee Approving the idea that our system of education, even professional education, non-essentials, an eminent English en- gineer, C. B. Gordon-Sale, expresses doubt concerning the value of such an amount of higher mathematics as must be mastered by young engineers. He declares that “many of the in- volved theories, embodying yards of cal- culations, are out of place and liable to warp thé mental outlook to such an extent that it takes years of experience to again attain a reasonable view of engineering problems.” He further asserts that he has never had to use much that he learned during his technical training, but that he constantly needed knowledge of cost estimating and other practical matters not taught in school, but which had to be picked up through corrected mistakes. 4 Referring to the mathematics and an accompanying host of algebraic symbols are necessary for the formation of logical modes of thought, Mr. Gordon-Sale thinks that the idea does not work out, because he believes that ‘‘cram- ming” is bad for anyone, and adds: “The amount of matter that one has/|with The Citizen, third assistant} to get through is so great that there is no time for basic principles; the sole aim of college days is to gét the numerical prob- Jems right.” Mr. Gordon-Sale merely expresses what a good many thoughtful persons, in- cluding leading educators, have suspected for quite a while. And the fault he points out is by no means confined to engineering courses. CONGRESS AND BEER That the congress about to. convent next month will amend the Volstead Act to permit the legal brewing of heer of a greater alcoholic content than the present one-halfof one per cert séems more certain every day. Those senators: and congressmen who | have been most rabid in their opposition to any sort of amendment have either been defeated in their candidacies or they have realized that a change of front is necessary if they are to save their political lives. The recent election demonstrated that the experience of the last fvurteen years has convinced the American people that in adopting prohibition they made a terrible mistake. They have declared in no uncertain manner that they want that error cor- | rected as soon as possible and the politi-| cians are surrendering to the public “de-} mand. The benefits that the idealists | pected from prohibition have not “ma- terialized. The terrific financial cost, the crimi- { nals and the new crimes which have been led and a bolito outfit captured. }ccasea developed and the many disadvantages of prohibition have been realized by even some of the most aggressive supporters of .

This infor- mation was received at the local lighthouse department. Henry Davis, former newsboy engineer on the steamship Ossa, has written his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Davis, of 313 Fleming street, from Alexandria, Egypt, of the horrors encountered in his travels in the east. He graphical- ly describes the plight of Christian Greeks fleeing from the Turks and other refugees crowding the ports at which the vessel stopped. Star- vation and great physical suffer- ing is seen on every hand. W. H. Malone delivered an im- pressive oration at the Memorial services of B. P.O. Elks yesterday afternoon at the Monroe theater.
