It will pass above opalescent shoals which every hue in the spectroseope and tra- verse green keys and islands jwhere dense underbrush has been cleared for the right of way. More than 50 miles of the right of way crossing the islands and keys have been cleared and auto- mobiles are now running on Mate- cumbe and Big Pine Keys. This j promises to be the grandest drive in the United States, A large shipment of which was destined to Florida has been held up itt Havana. On representation of General Enoch H. Crowder, United States am- bassador, the Nicaraguan steamer Isla has been held at that port by Havana police. The Isla had a large consignment of liquor on board and the ambassador’s ac- tion is said to have been based on the supposition that the cargo was consigned to Florida. liquor The Temple of Justice baseball players are engaged in a fierce battle with the Rotarians this aft- and Toll Bridge District commis-}ernoon on ‘the navy ball grounds and the outcome of the conilict is eagerly awaited by hundreds of fans.

Editorial comment: Not only do the highways beekon the auto- mobile tourist, but some say the trees and poles come into the road to hit them. Miss Agnes L. Ward, daughter of Captain and Mis.

Some of tore ardent advocates of the administra- tion go so far as to insist that, had it not been for the New Deal, the coun- try would have experienced a revo- lution in 1933. Was the picture as black as it has been painted? Is it true that “the me- chanics of civilization came to a dead stop on March 3, 1933"? Unquestion- ably conditions were bad, but only a person with a very bad memory—or an ax to grind—would say that they were hopeless. Comparing the eco- nomic situation in March, 1933, with the period 1923-25 one finds that man- factory employment was fifty-nine per cent, while were thirty-seven per cent production stood at seventy-four per cent, while freight car toadings. excellent. index to business activity, were forty-eight per cent of the pe- riod of Coolidge prosperity. about half of the statéa In his in- augural address President Roosevelt declared quite correctly that or he sae alain ce. soecaaeaiaaes self.” - What the country needed in early 1938 she a i psnowingg = uplift.

It is well known that elections often are won because the voters are against someone, not because they are for someone else. Most politicians agree that the ma- jority voted against the Wilson! policies in 1920, not affirmative- ly in favor of Harding: against Smith in 1928, rather than for Hoover; against Hoover in 1932, more than for Roosevelt.
