Soon we'll have the ancient order of the CWA. Pity the poor fish. This is “Rat More Fish Week.” Having the right of way doesn’t help much when the other driver is a fooi. Women can keep a secret, all right, but sometimes it takes about a hundred of them to do it. As is usual in a campaign year, a lot of people will be so busy talking politics that they will forget to register. More Americans wear spectacles than any other people. But think of the strain our eyes have been under during recent years. Sympathy is one of the finest of human instincts, yet if it is unintelligently directed and controlled it can easily lead to corrupt- ing generosity, This is also “First Aid Week,’ besides “Eat More Fish Week.” Instead of a de- cline in the “week” propaganda, they’re doubling on us. = The Pathfinder says Florida boasts that 628 varieties of fish abound in the wa- ters off the coast, No boast, a fact. And the greater amount may be caught in the waters about Key West. Come and see for yourself. This week being “Eat more fish week” in Florida, by special arrangement of the state marketing board, the Gainesville News warns that this isn’t the time to rush down to the store and lay in a supply of sardines and salmon. It will be a handy time, however, to prove to northern visitors that the humble Florida combination of “grits and grunts,’when properly prepar- ea js grand eating —Miami News.

Payment for such publication is paid by the delinquents themsel and added to the other penalties for each piece of property. present Taxdodgers and others may be interested | in suppressing publication of tax lists, pleading the great cost to the county, when in fact such publication brings to the coun- ty payment of taxes that otherwise would never be paid, and actually costs the coun- ty nothing. obtained what a An idea may be drain the slot-machine racket is on a com- | en- the munity when it is known that in the tire pre-depression year of 1928 at millionaire gambling resort of Carlo, the Casino’s roulette wheels took in only $4,566,104 gross, while in one month in New York during a depression year, the slot-machines were estimated conservative- ly to have taken in $4,000,000, Mayor La- York, inst the racket.

America has had a year of the new deal; Germany has had a year of Nazi con- trol. It is worth while to contrast the state of things in the two countries, as a means of comparing two utterly different | of meeting national emergency. aparison there is no ways In making such com need to contrast the personalities American president and the German chan- ! What is important is the striking | way in which two diametrically opposite theories of government have heen put to} work in time of ¢ | In each nation there was widespread i confusion, discouragement, and want a year ago. Many men were out of work, | finance and industry were nearly at al standstill, the mass of mankind was ready to embrace almost any kind of program { that promised action. What have we today? In Germany there is an era of sup- pression. A large section of the populace suffers from a pitiless persecution. Thou- sands upon thousands of men are in jail— } some because of their race, some because of their beliefs. - | Freedom of the press and of speech is | no more. No one dares criticise anything i the government may do. An _ iron disci- | pline has descended on the entire nation. And over here? Nobody’s in jail, no- body suffers persecution, nobody is under boycott. A newspaper editor can say any- thing his heart moves him to say; a poli- | tician can denounce the administration in the most vehement terms his vocabulary will permit. | In the fall we are to have a national | election in which the voters, if they choose, can repudiate their national administration completely. To put it more simply, the Germans } have sacrificed the last vestiges of their | individual liberty to meet a great crisis. We have met our crisis with out liberties unim- paired. Now this is not to say that we are wis- ; er or better folk than the Germans. We are used to democracy. We had had a century and a half of experience in governing our- | selves. The Germans were not used to de- mocracy; when trouble came it was only natural for them to turn to a dictator for relief. And it is precisely that which is the | point of the comparison. Because we have | been able to make our democracy work, we | are a happier people than the Germans, | who have not been able to make theirs work. If we wish to preserve our happiness, we must preserve our democracy. cellor. i { i | i CRIPPLED CHILDREN’S DAY (Palm Beach Times) Saturday, March 17, will be Crippled | Children’s Day in Florida as well as St. | Patrick’s Day.
