J, Erwin Larson, of Key Stone Heights, Plorida, has been named collector of inter- Wal revenue. Mr. Larson is a star senator Tepresenting Clay and Baker counties, Her- bert Felkel, editor of the St. Augustine rd, was first named for the post by President Roosevelt, but Felkel declined ‘the job after he had been confirmed by the Senate. Although the collector's job is ®asier and the pay more liberal, Felkel ould not tear himself away from newspa- er work, which to our simple method of ‘Tatibcination proves something else again. ‘A LABOR OF LOVE, The recent award of thé degree of doctor of laws to Miss Martha McChesney | « Berry of Georgia by Bates College again calls attention to one of America’s most remarkable and useful women. Her life has been devoted to the education of moun- tain children. Miss Berry was born a Southern aris- tocrat and had the advantage of the. best schooling, as well as European travel. Many girls so privileged, might have been | satisfied with the pleasures of a purely so- cial career, but not she. In 1902 she found- ed the Berry Schools for mountain boys and girls at Mount Berry, Ga., of which she has been the director ever since. Her inheritance was also devoted to the work and from a small beginning the school has grown to include nearly 100 buildings, with a “campus” of 15,000 acres, and an attendance of nearly 1,000 students. Still there are always hundreds on the waiting list. Among the honors bestowed upon Miss Berry for carrying on-this labor of love, these may be mentioned: Voted the state’s most distinguished citizen by the Georgia legislature, awarded the Roose- velt medal for services to the nation, receiv- ed a national magazine award of $5,000 for outstanding service, and the medal of the Town Hall Club in New York for accom- plishment of lasting merit. She has re- eived several honorary college degrees and other tokens of recognition: At the age of 66 Miss’ Berry, is still active in the management of her great in- stitution, and is planning for the future as always. It is not surprising, therefore, that in addition to the honors enumerated above, she was by popular yote in a nation- wide poll acclaimed as one of the 12 great- est American women. Off-hand, we can not think of one whom we consider greater. AN ENCOURAGING SIGN Most encouraging is a report just is- sued by Dr. Shirley W. Wynne, health commissioner of New York City concerning the decrease of automobile and industrial accidents in that city in recent months. Automobile deaths numbered 100 ‘in January, but only 70 in May,‘despite the fact that more cars were on the road and more children playing in the streets. In- dustrial and other accidents dropped even more sharply, although more persons were employed in industry than in former months. The records show 209 industrial ac- cidents in April of this year as compared with 272 in April, 1932, while in May of this year there were only 208, as against 296 for May, 1982. This reduction in the number of ac- cidental deaths and injuries, aswell as deaths from alcoholism, Dr. Wynne de- clares in his report, is largely due to the fact that the legalization of beer has re- duced the consumption of whiskey and thereby promoted the cause for real tem- perance. He says: “May, 1933, showed fewest deaths from accidents on our recent records, The conclusion is that our people of New York have been drinking less strong liquors and that the legalization of beer has saved ap- proximately a life a day since April 7.” Anfway’it is encouraging to observe a reduction of the frightful death and ac- cident toll which long has shown us to be the most careless people in the world. A TAMPAN’S HOMECOMING More than 100 friends gave greeting to George Zarate, home from Atlanta. They were glad to see George; George was glad to see them, happy to be back in Tampa. Indeed, Zarate should esteem himself a lucky fellow. © He got a sentence of 10 years in federal prison, which usually means 10 years. But Zarate was fortunate. First, his sentence was whacked exactly in half by President Hoover. That was much more consideration than one of Uncle Sam’s convicts ordinarily can hope for. But that wasn’t all of Zarate’s good luck. In- : stead of remaining five years, he got out, | through further commutation, in exactly two years and eight months. Ordinarily, he was scheduled to be absent from his familiar haunts until 1940; under the Hoo- ver cut until 1935. But Zarate is back home. His good fortune in having less than three years suffice for a 10-year term ought to induce him to be a better citizen. Like everything else the N. R. A. will work hardships, where relief is intended. é THE KEY WEST CITIZEN POC OODSOSCCCoCCETOCCETECCLETECECOUESESECECCCCCDCS Daily Cross-word Puzzle Solution of Saturday’s Puzzle Picle(ciormte Pirin owe| IR[e (NIE (GlEISMAAIR[S[E(NIAIL| [AIM Be (ru ole Baa Rt | ACROSS 1, Boy 4. artificiat ‘waterway 9.
