IMPROVEMENTS FOR KEY WEST ADVOCATED BY THE CITIZEN Water and Sewerage. Bridges to complete Road to Main- land. Free Port. Hotels and Apartments Bathing Pavilion, Aquarium. ' Airports—Land and Sea. Consolidation of County and City Sihorance, prejudice, misconception of fatts, false generalizations, have been as deadly foes to practical morality as lust and aggressiveness, The fact that a society exists whose exclusive function is to prevent cruelty to children is in itself a strange commentary on our strange humanity. The surest way of improving an en- vironment i is by high behavior within it. In that ae are not only doing your share Y. make ‘better. the, in which you President Roosevelt has said that he bs s expect to make a hit every time rceabs bat, We do not expect him to do that either, but what has us jittery is that he might make an error at an in- opportune time, by which the nation as a whole will suffer. It is said that Conan Doyle, author of the infallible Sherlock Holmes, invested and lost money, even as you and I, in coal mines that could not be definitely located, in gold mines innocent of gold, and in in- ventions that were merely imaginary. The Key West Citizen wonders why they don’t send out the Congressional Re- cord wrapped in cellophane. The Times- Union adds:Why not send it out wrapped in asbestos? We rise to remark: Why send it out?—Quincy Herald. —That ap- pears to be the last word, andthe final answer. A loca] fan read somewhere that Babe Ruth never knocked a home run in the park of the Phillies. That's historically correct and he won't until he plays there; so far he has not. But in the Cleveland ball park, here he has often played, he has never nm successful jn clouting the bal] for the uit of the bases. them a telegram? by regret that you did not explain in great- er detail but maybe that is because we note the telegram was not marked govern- for the wire a thrifty senator can’t go into these matters as fully as he might if he were getting it printed free in the Congres- sional Record. The next time you have self and send it collect. We wish you had know more about the “base and false” im- pression you seem to think we attempted to create. What impression, Senator, can you mean? Surely, there is nothing base about having visitors to your office regis- ter. Don’t most senators and congressmen do it so that if they happen to miss their callers they can write them letters and send them campaign literature? If don’t do that it is an error to report ‘that | you do, but it seems to us to be a good deal | short of “a contemptible, dirty falsehood.” As a matter of fact, it’s the truth, and you know it, that in your absence your secre- taries ask visitors from Florida to leave their names. Perfectly all right, too, and nothing at all to get hot under the collar about. So if it wasn’t the registering business that got under your senatorial skin and sent you bristling into print, it must have | _been the last half of the crack about your” office being like any other rooming house. Really, Senator, you’re not going to pass up national magazines, all the big papers with Washington correspondents and those in! your state and elsewhere which run Wash- i ington: Merry-Go-Round, the National \ Whirligig and other columns like that, just to jump on a little old country daily way down here in Florida for alluding to the | story that you use your office as a bed- | room? That was repeated in the Tampa} Tribune only a few days ago and a day or so later we read it in the Orlando Sentinel. If you don’t like it, why don’t you send Ed Lambright and| Martin Andersen would give you more pub- | licity than we can. And how! | However, we’ll do our bit, and gladly, if you'll just be a little more specific on! those “base and false” impressions you mention. Do you \w vant to deny that visi tors are asked to leave their names at your office when they come to see you and find } you out? And as for that oft told’ tale that you sleep in your office, do you want | us to tell the world that Trammell doesn’t live there any more. If so, O. K. But | why pick on us with this high dudgeon?
