President Sober could settle the war debt problem like nothing at all if he would only let Mr. Lippmann tell him how. A newspaper publisher suffering from delusions of grandeur certainly has to pay dearly for his foolishness. All he gets for his Yabors and his money is a grand ha-ha. Once upon a time there was an editor who just doted on seeing his picture in his own paper, and there never appeared an issue without the photo uutil the nen il porary ridiculed the practice, when | ceased abruptly. The power of the press. Attorney General Landis has ruled that the sheriff of Dade county may collect } the usual transportation charges for taking | them up and down the elevator to and! from thé court room.

DA VINCI’S WHEELBARROW When you see Jonah, The Citizen's porter trundling a wheelbarrow in i with his duties as general factotum, you | would hardly think that the inventor of other than-Leonardo Da Vinci, one of the. world’s greatest geniuses, best known as the painter of Mona Lisa and The Supper. It was the writer’s privilege to gaze jupon both of tiiese great works of art. | Da Vinci was a man of many accom- | plishments, ranking beyond his contem- poraries as sculptor, musician, military | engineer, astronomer, botanist, anatomist, geologist, architect,.and writer. He was born in 1452, the illegitimate son of a Florentin€é notary, and is considered by | many to have been the most universal | genius the world has ever produced. His activities embraced all the fields oi art and science in his day. But great as were his contributions to art and science, the most lasting benefits which he conferred upon mankind were probably in the line of u.echanica] inven- tion, although many of his conceptions were not developed practically until cen- turies later. flying machine which would have been a success with a modern motor, for which the world had to wait another 400 y And one of his inventions was the wheelbarrow, which, simple as it appears to us, has been one of the greatest lavor- savers ever devised through the applica- tion of pure mechanics. It seems strange to us that so many centuries elapsed be- tween the invention of.the wheel and that of the wheelbarrow. . That Da Vinci was the first to hit up- on this humble but most useful means of seaneponanon. is added Brogt of his genius. RELIGIOUS FANATICS Frequent attacks on the Jews of Pales- tine by fanatical Moslem Arabs again il- lustrate the unfortunate fac} that the world’s most violent and unreasoning ha- treds still have,their source in differences over religion, as has been the case from the earliest times. In all ages religious zealots have sought to exterminate those of other faiths, in the apparent belief that by so doing they would gain the favor of the Almighty. Per- seeution, torture and wholesale massacre have been employed to this end, among both savage and supposedly civilized peo- ples. It is interesting to recall in this con- nection the approval by Rev. Cotton Mather, foremost scholar of his day, of a plan to capture William Penn and his band of Quakers on the high seas while on their way to America and sell them into slavery. Mather wrote jn 1682: “Much spoil may be made by selling the whole lot to Barbados, where slaves fetch good prices in rurh and sugar, and we shall not only do the Lord a. great service by punishing the wicked, but we shall make great gains for His minister and people.” The same intolerant spirit exists in our own day, net only among the fanatical Arabs, but among zealots*of all faiths, in- cluding many who ¢all themselves Chris- tians. WATCH LATIN AMERICA industries of all kinds are looking southward—to Latin America. Here is the world’s greatest = of.raw materials that ente; | Today American daily into our lives. Here, too, is a “buy- ing” population of 104,000,000 peoplé, spread through eighteen countries. Here is a vast land whose products we must have, and to whose people we must sell our goods; it is a land in which 200,- 000 of our citizens in all walks of life have invested some $1,700,000,000, At the moment. depreciated values are the bugbear of Latin America and a barrier to mutually profitable trading be- tween our country and its southern neigh- bors. But values will come back and Latin America will perhaps be the greatest sin- gle outlet for our goods and the indirect source of livelihood for hundreds of thou- sna of our workers. It is a land worth watching and understanding. Closer inter- iF | American relations will help mold the des- tinies, not only of the Western Hemisphere, } but of the entire world.

Federal agent§, according to the paper, boost Key West as being the one place where Americans can get all the liquor they want without the accompanying high hotel charges that they have to pay in Havana. C. C. Walker, W. €. Crumley and G. D. ‘Murriil, ‘prohibition agents, say that every time they arrest a bootlegger, other bootlegzers get on the jury and the accused is nev- er found guilty. Why g > to Ha- vana, they say, when liquor can be bought by the drink, quart or case in Key West, “over the bar” and|= “it is useless to try to stop it,” they say. Mr. and Mrs. George F. Morris and Dr, and Mrs. S. D. W. Light|{ss2.. have returned to Key West from a motor tour of the states as far north as Detroit, Mich. The schooner Acacia, which sunk in the F. E.
