Whik The ‘Citizen has been quoted a number of times by the Literary Digest in its Topics of the Day, our ambition, not yet gratified, is to be noted in its Slips That Pass in The Night. Perhaps we will get there some day. We have hopes. i The slogan “Buy American” takes in too much territory, although it is under- | stood that the United States only is meant. “Buy United States,” is more correct. It is really a biy-at-home idea, ‘and is econom- ically sound. first bay what you Want in Key. West; if it cannot be purchased here, buy it in Florida; if this state cannot supply your wants, buy it in some other state but in the United States; if the United States is‘uniable to meet your requirements, then and then only, buy foreign goods. ‘It would mean less prosperity for the other nations, but more for the United States. Call it sectionalism, ‘selfishness or pa- triotism, or by any other name, but our Hearst defends Governor Moore, of New Jersey, in refusing to honor extradi- tion papers for the fugitive Burns from Georgia, saying he was vnly guilty of petit Aareeny because he just got about $4.50 when he held up a man. It wasn’t his fault that he didn’t get a thousand. The only reason he didn’t was ‘beeause ‘his victim didn't have it. We've always con- tended, and still do, that burglars or rob- bers-should be handled as murderers, be- cause they are murderers at heart. They go pre to kill their victims rather than get caught. Governor Moore should be condemned rather than. praised. Vast such actions as his encourage érime.— Palmetto N The United States has dropped from a 23,000,000 to a 20,000,060. car nation. This means a replac:.cent demand of 3,- 000,000 cats, not counting the “arrears” during the bad years when rattle-traps were junked and not replaced. {t is not likely that the demand of 3,000,000 will be reached, but the sales should be consider- | ably more than last year's minimum of a | little more than 1,000,000 cars.

TL KEY WEST CITIZEN a es ) PCIAL EOLY YEAR An anniversary which perhaps tion to it recently is at * years since the death of Cyyist, accorc to popular belief. As all ‘scholars t date of the Master’s death is not known, neither is that of nis birth. In proclaiming ‘a special holy year for observance by Catholics from i 1 Sun- day, Aipril 2, 1933, until Apiil 2, 1934, the ; ‘We are not sure whether the! or 1934. The year 1933 is generally associated in, Pope said: the minds of simple citizens wiin 33 A. D., | or when Christ is believed to have di Jt is quite universally agreed respect to the beginnine of the Christian era. haustive historical researches made cerning the matter that Christ was born three or more years earlier than our calendar indicates. The period of his active ministry is | also uncertain, but is thought to have been about three years, ending in his crucifixion‘ at the approximate age of 33. The Gospels give little definite information with re- spect to any of these dates, and secular history is almost silent regarding the life } of Christ. In any event, the special holy year will be observed as stated. ‘The Pope said in his proclamation: “If the men of 2053 find more certain calculations for fixing | the exact date they will know how to do their duty as we ‘do ours now.” BABE AND HIS TROUBLES Pity Babe Ruth! is to be asked to take a cut of $25,000 in his ‘annual salary for clouting home runs for the New York Yankees. It is hard enough for a men of his yeats weighing 229 pounds to reduce his girth, without the additional worries of what is going to hap- pen when he and Colonel Jacob Ruppert get together to discuss his contract. The last conference resulted in a slash from $80,060 to $75,000. And now there is talk that Babe will be asked to take $50.- 000 for gamboling gn the greensward in Yankee Stadium next summer. It has been suggested that the other clubs in the American League should con- tribute to Babe’s salary. That is not a bad idea at all, when one considers what Babe means to baseball. Last year, for in- stance. Babe was ill ou one of the trips to Chicago and it was estimated that the White Sox receipts dropped $56,000 as a yesult. Sox and Cleveland played to about 3,000 spectators in Boston. The next day with Ruth in the lineup there were 6,000 cash customers on hand.
