Congress will again free the Filipinos, as the former effort. didn’t “take.” The Times-Union, ever generous, puts an extra “pi” in the king of Siam’s name.

Roosevelt and what he has made it mean to others personally will be recognized by the movement to observe his birthday, January 30. The National Committee for the Birthday Ball for the President esti- mates that 5,000 communities honor on that day the man now laboring for na- itional recovery, and proceeds. from many affairs on the President’s birthday will be ‘paid’ into a permanent endowment fund for the nation-wide work of the Warm Springs Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. It might have been expected when Mr. Roosevelt was stricken with paralysis in August, 1921, that his active career was -about'ended. But he survived the attack, | discovered means to promote his recovery ‘of health and strength, and, while still en- gaged in his own personal recovery, began a movement to make certain benefits avail- able to others. The humanitarian Roose- } velt wanted others to reduce to a minimum, as he had, the effects of the dread illness and he gave time, money and labor to the establishment of facilities at Warm ‘\ Springs. When Mr, Roosevelt went to Warm Springs in 1924, largely because an au- thority on infantile paralysis-had advised exercise and a ‘friend had recommended the place where ‘| flow the largest warm springs east of the | ,Rockies, the community was a neglected summer resort, with no doctors. He made more progress toward per- ‘sonal recovery then in six weeks than he ‘had made previously in three years. A newspaper article featuring Roosevelt and Annette Kellermann as two _ infantile paralysis victims who had recovered by swimming, and telling of Warm Springs, |__ attracted many and Mr. Roosevelt went to ,_work to find ways and means for obtaining facilities for them. After interesting medical groups that approved his general plans, he organized in January, 1927, the non-profit Warm He has put money in- to it himself, raised much more, and at- -j'tended: to considerable financing through ‘loans. Among the largest contributors are John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who gave $20,000 ,for general purposes and Mr. and Mrs. Edsel Kord, who gave $30,000 used to con- struct a winter pool 90 by 40 feet in dimen- sion. The ultimate goal of the Warm Springs project is to make available to as ymany cripples as possible, on a cost basis, the facilities of Warm Springs. SAVE THE CHILDREN Any accident involving loss of life or limb is deplorable enough, but none is more deplorable than one in which bright, happy and ambitious school children are killed! or maimed through carelessness on the part of those whose duty it is to pro- vide for their protection. Two unusual accidents were reported recently, both being caused by the col- ,lapse of portions of school buildings under the weight of the young victims. That no ACROSS . Helps Strike with the palm .

A record was made _ yesterday, says Tax Collector Arthur Shep- pard, when taxes covering a pe- riod of 30 years, were paid on a piece of property. The campaign that The Citizen waged some time ago on the delinquent tax mat- ter, and the general tax situation, been showing beneficial results for the past few weeks. Kingfish were located yesterday by local fishermen, but only two boats brought in catches. It was expected! the fish would school in the bay as they did after the first norther was over, but in- stead they passed through North- west Channel and went further south and wound up at the edge! of the Gulf Stream. Captains Paul and Fred Demeritt found the fish and brought in 1,400 pounds.

That doesn’t speak so well for the imputed wealth of Miami Beach residents. or: visi- tors: Perhaps the burglars were not very enterprising or easily satisfied. If any building in the world should be so. constructed as to make its collapse impossible it is a school building. Every school structure should be rigidly inspected from time to time to insure its safety in this respect. Ample exits for use in case of fire} should be invariably provided, and _ fire drills should be held at regular and fre- quent intervals. Inflammable material in school rooms should be reduced to the minimum. Another danger that can not be too carefully guarded against is that due to the widespread and growing operation of school busses. Only the most capable and careful drivers should be employed, they should be required to see that brakes and other equipment are in good condition | at all times. School boards have a grave respon- | sibility in all these matters, and they should insist upon the fullest cooperation on the part of principals and teachers. “Save the children” should be their motto and slogan.
