Former Editor of The Key West Citizen ai One of the best quips of the season ‘comes from Louis Reid, writing in the New York American concerning the radio broud- ast#-0ff' administration key men. Refer- g to Lonis M. Howe, one of the Presi- seeretarics, who recenily radioed pee ageeees! hates a yes-man,” Reid re- “inarked : “ Tf that is true, Roosevelt today is doing more hating than any man alive.” > Those of us who have difficulty in us- ing the mother tongue correctly may take heart from the fact that many famous ‘Persons have or had the same trouble. Once when Henry Ward Beecher was told that he used bad grammar in a sermon, he “sald: “Did 1? Well, all I have to say is— “God help grammar if it gets in my way “when Tm preaching.” ~. We read of a man and wife who at the time of their marriage agreed that the| “husband should decide ali major questions “which might arise, while the wife should “have her way about minor ones.

Johnson, NRA administrator, to the effect that he originally spelled his name John- ston, but dropped the “t” years ago. His son, however, retains the original famity name and signs himself Kilbourne John- ston. Bishop Arundale of the Liberal Cath- olic church ef Australia is in this country for a lecture tour.

A sign on a California cabaret, where a popular impersonator was closing an en- gagement, was prophetic. It read: “Last \i Night of Jean Malin.” After finishing his} | farewell performance, ‘Jean Malin acci- dently backed his automobile off a picr into the sea and was killed. Grit suggests Cuat if we use the same care in picking government officials as we do-im. picking cantaleupes certain condi } tions might be mere satisfaciory. But it’s doubtful if we ever shall. | | } A MATTER OF SAFETY In a very interesting editorial, the In- surance Field comments on the fact that many prospects for life insurance are hesi- tating becauss of fear that the value of the dollar will change in the future, and that the policy wilt be paid off in a depreciated currency. This is very much like refusing to take out insurance on the grounds that the world is coming to an end. It it does, your | dollars won’t be any good to you anyhow, and you might as well have invested them in imsuraiice as anything else. Money in the bank will vary in value if governmental money policies are changed—so will mon- ey in stocks, bonds, commodities or any- thing else. money may be lost entirely—life, insurance still offers unexcelled safety, irrespective of inflation, deflation, or reflation! What life insurance is, is simply re- ducing to 4 minimum the element of-chance in preparing for the future. Its purpose is to provide stability, safety—not profits. it takes notice of human failing—the dif- ficulty we have in refraining from spend- | ing money we have saved which is within quick and easy reach. It takes our sav- ings, invests them with the lowest possible element of risk, and returns them when most needed. Don’t worry about currencies, gold standards, managed dollars and the rest. | They’re beyond your power to control. In considering life insurance, simply remem- ber that it is a good deal more likely to keep your money unimpaired than any in- | vestment open to you. NRA “CHISELERS” The first NRA “‘chiselers” are appear- ing. ‘These are firms which sign the agreement, then violate it by not bringing wages to the specified minimum, keeping workers on the job for longer hours than are allowabie, etc. Cases have been found wa:ere employes have protested, only to be ‘eld that if they reported violations to NRA sirectors, they would be discharged. Gen- eral Johnson .uG subordinates are going ufter concerns falling in this classification. Thea law may step in. Signed NRA pledges are sent-threngh the mails. Postmaster General Farley is considering the possibil- ity of prosécuting employers who sign and then violate, under the postal fraud stat- ute. General Johnson has inaugurated a Buy Now campaign, with the buying re- stricted to NRA. members. An executive ordc., permiiting cancellation of govern- ment contracts with manufacturers who have not come into the fold, has been is- sued, No new government contracts will go to non-NRA firms. YOUR RESPONSIBILITY There are two great tragedies of fire. First, is the fact that eighty percent or more of all fires, large or small, are en- tirely unnecessary and could easily be pre- vented. Second, ins great many fires, damage is much larger than it should be, because of fire-fighting organizations to: handle the blaze quickly and efticienitiy. The first problem is largely up to the individudl, ‘The community can pass good building codes and enforce inspections of property—but these will be successful to only a-small degree. without public inter- est and csoperation. Fires arising from | misuse of heating plants, from the careless disposal of waste matter, from inferior wir- ing, cause damage to the extent of millions ayear. Every one of these fires could be prevented if the property owner would go to the small trouble and expense necessary to assure safety. The second problem, to most of us, seems to lie in the province of municipal geverning authorities. They make fire marshals, hire the personnel, and buy department appropriations, appoint fire equipment and apparatus. But the in- fluence of the individual citizen can be ex- | tremely potent here, too. basis of fitness, instead of political consid- eration, that cisc'pline and training prevail | in the department, that apparatus be of strictly standard make. Meke ne mistake—the prevention and | euenching of fire is a matter that touches the lives and pocketbooks of us all. For | saany years, America has led the world in this waste—an unenviable record. It is time | for the imluence of the citizen to be felt. Are you, Mr. Citizen, going to be in any way responsible Jor your next local fire tragedy? The difference is that while | THe KeY Wis?
