A BIG MAN SPEAKS With so many influences and agencies working to extend the socialist program in ; the Unite.‘ ’ ‘es, it is heartening to those «sho beheve in the superiority of private initiative and enterprise, to read the follow- ing couragec.s expressions from a recent address of former gov..nor Alfred E. Smith at tne Century of Progress exposition in Chiceso. ir. Smith said, in part: “As I went through th lesson for the people of this country to learn ... avide from the assistance of Di- vine Providence, what has maue this cen- tury of progress? “Jf you will study this fair, you will be obliged to come to the conclusion that this.) century of progress was ‘ rought about by | 4 individual initiative; by the strength, the power, the courage, the brains and ability of the men and women of the Republie of North America. Whether you point to progress in industry, science, invention, transportation, or the arts, what you see here is the triamph of the mind and the |, hand of free men, without dictatorship. “Ninety percent of the exhibits here mark advances in our civilization, du¢ en- tirely to individuals, privaté’ ‘individuals, working wiihout inspiration, compulsion, control or even suggestion from the govern- ment itself. In fact, it is noteworthy that > feir I thought | ‘5.

This wiil continue and the list grow to huge propor- tions if the names of those who are dead -and gone are not erased. The Citizen practically knows nothing about finances, never having much money _to practice with, but nevertheless it seems to us the government is on the wrong scent in its purpose to buy newly mined gold at higher than the market price. European governments will not take it lying down, but will respond with. embargos, prohibitive ~ tariffs, and whatnot. Pendulums have a ~ habit of swinging back. Frank P. Fildes, former publisher of “the old Miami Tribune, Pelm Beach Times and Key West Morning Call, has purchased on the oiher hand, much has beer prevent- ed, much has been thwarted, much has been hindered by the heavy, cold, clammy hand of bureaucracy. “Now let us not be too cynical about the motives that have actuated the men who have wrought these buildings whicu house miracles of science und invention. P.ide of achievement, ambition .s excel, love of work and art have had: wre to do with it than the mere desire to raake money or to exploit othe:s. And it is a matter of common fact .. . that goverument is at its best when it muggle e.its and cooper- ates with private industry. « “Ard a century from nov another ex- position will arrive here, to mark another century of triumzhent progress of free men, under the American Constitution.” BIRDS OUR PROTECTORS Although some varieties of birds are considered a great nuisance by farmers “Now, isn’t that } just too had.

The rapidity with which certain in- sec.s multipiy is beyond the imagination. For example, ‘a pair of pucerons, a species of flea, will ina year produce more than 441 qnadrillion young.

Not only out of humane sentiment, but as an actual protection to civilization, the birds should be spared. OUTWITTING A CROOK An vnusual package was delivered recently to Hermann Pattberg, a wealihy citizen of Duisburg, Germany. Inside was a carrier pigeon and a letter. The leucr directed him to securely fasten a 5,000-mark note, equivalent to about $1,200, to the pigeon and turn it leose. He was warned that ke would be | murdered should he fail to comply.
