Gardner’s Pharmacy turned in the first 50c piece of Key West sctip for 50c of coin of the realm. Now Who is first to exchange $100 scrip for $1.00 American currency? 7 The Citizen does not haye to knock at the door, or grovel ut the threshold; it has been a familiar figure for more than 50 years, and enters the home as a tvel- come guest. A Weekly paper certainly is not a competitor of a daily paper, because one _ dispenses news, the other history; it is not a contemporary, because of the divergence of time, so what is it? “I'm not ashamed to shake hands with any worker.”“—-Mrs. Franklin . D. Roosevelt. Why should she be ashamed, isn’t this a democratic country, ‘where labor receives the dignity it merits? Almost every human being has in him both a contemplative faculty and a cocks for self-expression, but some people es- pecially certain newspaper writers have the cacoethes seribendi developed to such a degree that it disgusts the readers. The St. Lucie County Board of Pub- lie Instruction got a check from the state for $10,462 and were jubilant, but it was a mistake made in Tallahassee. Tt was intended for the county commissioners as its shere of the racing money. The mis- take war rectified and now the jubilatory “ emotions are reversed. Senator Gomez, of Key West, an- nounces for president of the next senate. Our guess is that he'll get it—Tampa Tribune. He appears te have the faculty of getting most everything he goes after, but was twice defeated for the mayoralty. And if that wasn't luck, just ask Mayor Malone, who recently said he was 60 years old on his 56th birthday anniversary. “more money to spend. i THE KENTUCKY DERBY Tomorrow afternoon, at Churchill Downs track in Louisville, Kentucky, at about 5 p. m.; the bugle will call a fairly THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Daily Cross-word Puzzle VOCdooeSeSooSdeoeoosaececesssecaccccsevearucceses Solution of Yesterday’s Puzzle ACROSS large field of horses to the starting post : for the annual racing classic. That is the usual statement, but in this case the starting post is a rather im- posing’ machine similar to the steel frame- work of a building, which contains a num- ber of stalls—one for each starter. _ Only in the event of too large/a field to be ac- commodated will the start be made from the old style barrier. At the present time the winner seems to be the winter-book favorite, ‘‘Ladys- man,” belonging to W. R. Coe. This colt, which is trained by John H. Stotler, seems to be the logical winner. [Tf he is beaten, it will probably be by a horse trained by the same trainer, which will mean that those who bet at the track or at the race on “Ladysman’”’ will win their bets, while those who bet on him in the winter books, if he is beaten, will lose. Trainer Stotler is in the rather unique position of having in his care several can- didates with chances to win the race, but belonging to different owners. Under the rules of racing, all horses trained by the same trainer are coupled in the betting on the day of the race. In the winter books each horse is backed independently, re- ' gardless of his ownership or the man who trains him. “Ladysman” should win the Kentucky Derby, but if he doesn’t win, one of his stablemates should do the trick. “Parity,” which belongs to the Sagamore Stable is one of these possibilities. But “Parity,” if he starts, will run coupled with “Ladys- man.”? So go to it, sports. “QUT OF MONEY, INTO THINGS” As we go informally off the gold standard by refusing to “support the dol- Jar” abroad by gold shipments, what hap- pens at home? The immediate response is a spec- tacular price rise in commodities and stocks. The grain and cotton market boil over. “Commodity shares,” representing steel, copper, rubber, tobacco and other leading industrial materials, lead the stock procession. : ‘This was desired and expected. What American business ‘men, economists and statesmen have been ‘earnestly seeking is Higher prices, to restore values, facilitate debt payments, get people back to work and start the blood circulating again in the arteries of industry and trade. ‘We have had ‘for three years and a half a “sellers’ maftket,” deflating and de- pleting everything. It looks now like an about-face, with a buyers’ market and an inflation which should be wholesome and leng-continued if kept in control. For three and a half years we have been getting “out of things and _ into money.” That is, ‘sacrificing everything for liquidity, turning our material posses- sions into cash. The process is now re- versed. We think less of money. From wow on, Wwe may be getting “out of money and into things’—spending again freely, and setting confidently to work to make THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK Conditions generally throughout our own country seem to be constantly im- proving and from all sections of the coun- try come reports of reviving business. The improvement is difficult to rec- ognize, as it is constant ‘rather than sporadic, and is in such moderate volume in relation to our size that it does not ut- tract the attention it deserves. But the improvement is none the ‘less apparent and it will grow in volume. The one thing which prevents a greater mass improvement is the choking up of money circulation because of the in- ability of our bankers to liberate capital for busitess purposes. As soon as banking capital becomes available, business everywhere will take a sudden boom. The banking position is steadily improving, but the improvement is weeessarily slow and it may still be some time before money and credit will regain their former position, But the trend of business is upward and it is steadily apward. There is a very bright outlook for the future and we seem to have definitely left most of our trade troubles a little bit in the ‘rear, We shall more and more quickly leave them as time goes on. eccccescconce eeeeeses Today’s Anniversaries Sdececesacaauoeasasesecses 1809—Frederiek A.

S..N., 23 years old, who died suddenly yesterday still re- mains a mystery. He was on duty at the radio power house when he suddenly fell to the floor. He was aided by several of his companions but he failed to re- spond to the efforts made to re- vive him. He was rushed to the hospital but was dead when he ar- rived. Captain Walter S. Crosley, com. mandant of the Seventh Naval District, has received orders de- taching him from service at. this station, effective May 19. He will ‘be granted leave of absence until June 9 and then assigned to duty as commander of the battle- ship Idaho. Rev. Mi O.
