SIDELIGHTS By MARCY B. DARNALL, Former Editor of The Key West Citizen Ai Kentucky court has ruled that hav- ‘ing liquor in one’s stomach does not con- istitute “possession” in the legal sense of ithe term, and is therefore not punishable junder | ‘the Voistead law. It is goed to tknow that there is some limit beyond :which snoopers may not go. By this wise jdecision it is made plain that even if a iman’s house is no tonger his* castle, his ‘stomach still is. ‘ : It becomes inereasingly apparent thet the various relief and rehabilitation ) now in effect or under considera- , will require a federal outlay of three ‘or four billion dollars, to be raised for the most part by bond issues. Thus, while the nt generation is paying for the war, he next must pay for the depression— iwhile the one following that will still be faced with some big debts left over from It seems likely that much confusion ‘will exist for a while, at least, as a result f legalizing beer before laws for reg- ulating its sale have been enacted in tates which have no such statutes at pres- ent. Also, itis reported that racketeers are planning to prey “on dispensers of degalized beer, as they have done on dealers in the contraband product. Some ‘drys believe a new situation may develop twhigh will enable them to defeat rati- fieatipn of the repeal peal amendment. ‘ ' Prof. Laird of Colgate, after exhaus- tive researches, has determined that only ‘about 3 per cent of persons are perfectly trathfal at all times, and other psycho! ogists generally agree. But even this shows an dm wement over the days of the » Who declared that “all men are liars.” Anyway, it would be interesting to meet one of Dr. Laird’s veracious 3 per cent. Many will recall that during the 1928 campaign some of the alleged religious profiiiganda against Al Smith was charged to Gol. Horace A. Mann of Tennessee, a stagith Hoover supporter. After the elec- tiom-Hoover incurred Mann’s enmity by re- fusing*to let him have a say in the distribu- tion of patronage. A few days ago Mann joined the Catholic church. Al Smith tele- graphed congratulations and best wishes. United States secret service men have apparently nipped in the bud a cownter- feiting plot of large proportions by the ar- rest 8f 10 persons in Chicago as a begin- ning of the warfare against the criminals. About $3,500 in “queer” currency ranging from $5 to $100 bills was confiscated. Some of the bills are very good imitations, while others are rather crude, according to the authorities. Bookmakers and night club prépitietors were the principal victims of the’ tounterfeiters. Persons with real money should be on their guard. There's something rotten in Den- is a quotation often used. Now that Ruth Bryan Owen is going there as our minister she may be induced to tip us -citja.what’s really rotten over there. — BRIDGE PROJECT STATUS With the supreme court’s decision putting an end to Rosenthal’s obstruction tactics, the Overseas Bridge Corporation can now proceed to press again its appli- cation to the R. F. C. for a lean te con- struct the proposed long bridges between Lower Matecumbe and No Name Key. The next move, according to informa- tien reeeived by The Citizen, is to obtain a franchise from the state or the State Road Department by legislative action. It appears safe to say that no opposition will develop to getting a franchise in that man- ner. Further, such a franchise will have more weight with the R. F. C. than one obtained in any other way. So far as The Citizen can see, the way appears now to be clear for the Overseas Bridge Corporation to proceed to. get the money to build the bridges. The preposed coi jection has been approved by the War Department, so that the corporation, on receiving the fran- chise, can appeal directly, without delay, to the R. F. C. Will the loan be granted? That is a question that only the R. F. C. can answer with authority. What is the probability of getting the loan? That question can be answered with reasonable certainty by anybody who has kept in close touch with the activities in Washington since the advent of the Roosevelt administration. - President Roosevelt has said that he favors the construction of projects of a public nature that will relieve unemploy- ment, and his sentiment in that regard has been echoed and reechoed by leaders in the senate and in the house. In other words, the federal govern- ment is now in a mood to advance money fer projects that are mathematically self- liquidating, that are a publit necessity and that will relieve unemployment. The proposed long bridges fulfil! alt ef those requirements. The Overseas Bridge Corporation has data to prove that the bridges will be self-liquidating. That information, prepared in detailed form and now ready for presentation, has not yet been submitted to the R. F. C., because the officers of the Overseas Bridge Cor- poration decided, after Rosenthal had fited his suit, that it would be unwise to turn it over to the R. F.C. until the legal fight had been terminated. - What the personnel of the R. F. C. will be when the Overseas Bridge Cor- poration reapplies for the loan is at pres- ent uncertain, but, regardless of the for- mation of the directorate, it will be actuated by a similar spirit of progress en- tertained toward self-liquidating projects that is‘how dominant in the White House. SECURITIES § SAFER NOW Even Wall Street has better times ahead. The moment that business improve- ment makes itself manifest, Wall Street will enter into another era of prosperity, The financial bad year of 1932 and the first quarter of 1983 will be forgotten in the joy of business recovery. As soon as the improved businesd’con- ditions result in orders for the large cor- porations, their securities will hee at- tractive. Wall Street has always béen re- garded as about six months in advance of the times. There was never a greater fallacy. Wall Street has always been just about six months behind the times. Within the next three or four weeks Wall Street will begin to perk up. Impfoved business conditions will mean that there will be few sellers of securities. With few sellers even the sub- normal demand for stocks and bonds,will result in an upward trend ef prices. As this trend makes itself apparent as a continuous upward trend, the Wall Street snowball, like the business snow- ball, will increase in momentum and growth. Wall Street, chastened and cleaned of much of its poisonous parasitical growths, will not only come into its own again, but will find its place as a respected and honored part of the national financial machinery. For several months The Citizen has cautioned against buying of securities. It now believes the time for investing is here. in to in Ruth Bryan Owen, a commoner, Denmark, will be in close proximity Madame Kolontay, a communist, Sweden.
