ANOTHER LAUGH (The Pensacola Journal) If you feel that something drastic ought to be done about saving the republic, and if you also like to: wear nice uniforms’ and have a feeling for vague supernatural- ism, then you surely will want to know about the Silver Shirts. This seems to be a Fascist.sort of out- fit now being organized in the middle- west. Its leader is a man who says that he once died and then returned to earth, en- dowed with supernatural powers. As a’ re- sult, it seems, he possesses “psychic anten- nae,”’ with’ which he is able to perform such prodigies as make forecasts accord- ing to the date which are inscribed in stone on the. great pryamid of Gizeh. It should be added, perhaps, that the | gentleman once was employed as a scenar- io writer in Hollywood. Sometime between now and 1986, the Silver Shirts plan to seize the reins of the | government in the United States. They are opposed violently to all’) Jews, asserting that the Jews control both international finance and the U. S. Administration. You ¢an join this ineffable outfit for $10, which brings you a neat uniform: con- sisting of campaign hat, silver shirt; blue corduroy pants, leggings and tie. Presum}- ably, also, you are put in touch with tHe leader's mystic revelations from beyond! the void. Now all this—which must’ be taken seriously by at least enough to give the leader a living—really represents a lucky break for America.

Key in February.— As a rule newspaper men do not dine, they just eat if and when, but tonight we shall indulge in “Dinner at Eight.” It is said: that married men have fewer automobile accidents. Perhaps because of so much good advice from the back seat. It was quite natural that once Uncle Sam would help out another Uncle Sam. We Beuventiphe together. oo sienble us Belgian’ war, ayiator ab- a lot of money. Butit is only natural that the ace should take the jack. Boe The English church organist’ who got fired for playing “Onward; Christian’ Sol- diers” asa wedding march probably was a married man. When the representatives of the Euro- pean nations call on Unele Sam again, they will probably find him out, but not like we found them out. No Jonah, Postmaster Harris won't let you send your letters away without past- ing on a stamp, even if you are helping out onthe Sunday Star. Us’ ordinary folks, as Will Rogers would say, generally have supper at Six, but tonight we are going to put on style and have “Dinner at Eight.” In Hyde Park, London, most every day soap-box orators may be heard in dia- tribes against everything and everybody. It is the policy of the English’ government to let "em blow off steam, after which they feel better and no harm. is done. writing, seems to break out in this country only in symptoms which are laughable. Some months ago there was the fiasco of the Khaki Shirts at Philadelphia. Now there is this woozy business of the Silver Shirts; and the result is a sort of reductio ad’ absurdum of the whole idea of Fascism. | ~~ It is being presented to us, not as a’ | movement which can enlist the sympathies '| of determined men, but asa supremely diz- ‘zy aberration at which we only can chuc- kle. That, to repeat, is a lucky break. Once let an idea get a humorous association in | the minds of the American people and-they will never take it seriously. If we are being introduced to Fascism in its most ludicrous guise, there is small chance that we ever shall commit the blun- der of falling for it. NO'SURPRISE TO OLD TIMERS “Key Westers, who have for genera tions been boasting that ‘this is the’ only Key West, are in for three surprises, for there are other Key Wests: There are three other communities by that name.” says the Miami Herald. ‘An available gazetteer describes Key West, Florida, and then de- scribes three other Key Wests:. Key West isa: post village in Iowa, four miles from Dubuque: Key West is a hamlet in Cof- fee County, Kansas, twelve miles north of Burlington, population; 270. Key West is a post’ office’in Kenton’ County, Ken- peeks: itis close to Covington; the cotnty 2) As for Florida; kesters? Hever the hamé so unique that‘ there’ was'no other,” the Herald says. Anyhow, why should Key Westers worry? Key West, Florida, is twice as large as all the others put together, and “then some.” Key West is the southernmost city in the United States. Key West, Florida, is the only city in the United States that has no frost. —tThanks for the complimentary mention, but Key Westers have always known that there were other Key Wests, none, how- ever, like the one and- only, Key West, | Florida. Criticism of congressmen and congress in general has been infrequent and un-; usttally mild since there is a president in! the White House who knows how to lead and a legislative branch that is willing’ to follow him. That's all most of us desire of congress just now—except that it could spare us the Congressional Record, printed at $42 a page. The Tampa: Tribune re- marks that this is “from $42-to $420 more} than most of the speeches:are worth.” The | Key West Citizen’ suggested the Record: be sent out “wrapped in cellophane; the Times-Unien preferred its copy in asbestos and the Quincy Herald had the last word, rising te remark : “Why send it out ?”"—Mi- ami News. | THE KEY WEST CITizZen Daily Cross-word Puzzle evccce | 29, Keen’ pain 31.
