Taking a chance is innate in the human being. In England, for instance, there are 152 dog race tracks, and the bet- ting amounted to more than 30 million dol- tare fo American money. And England is only an island in the north of France. The Tampa Tribune endorses the presidents proposal to change the mem- bership of the Supreme Court, but it can- wet endorse the president's proposal to go te the Texas Gulf coast to catch fish, it ays. Byerything in this world depends epen the selfish point of view. Workers in Philadelphia, looking for material for a WPA writer's project, re- cently came across an interesting item in the Pennsylvania Evening Post, of July 2, 1776. it was stuck midway in the page, between two advertisements, and below an eighteen line article about a committee on eatety. Wt reads: “This day the Con- ‘imental Congress declared the United Mates free and independent States.” Strife and slander over the Supreme Comrt tedep is angelic compared with the j days ot Lincoln, and that great President’s hatter eft bumanity shows out at its best as we tien The pages of history back to the year 1864 when the death of Chief Justice | Taney left that high position to be filled. Salmon P. Chase, ex-secretary of the treasury, was undoubtedly the most suitable man for the position but Chase Was Lin- eoln’s bitter political enemy and too keen for the position of President himself. But lineoln was a humorous man and he seems te have enjoyed to the full the pleasant surprise of Chase's friends and the con- P safeguard the peace of the islands and | perhaps that of Europe, but from what we read it looks like somebody has the heebee- “cage in” London from air raiders and asked more than: $400,000,000 for air de- fense. _ The “caging” would be accom- plished by large fleets of balloons, sent in- to the air at an alarm and dropping a net- work of steel cables “caging in the city and blockading any enemy plane from breaking: through.” : It would be interesting to know how high the balloons ascend before dropping the network of steel ‘and how much cable would have to be used to “cage” a city the size of London. What would keep the balloons from being shot down by hostile aircraft, as they were during the World War, is not reported but the British must think there is something to the scheme be- cause the news stories say that the bal- loons have been ordered and some have been received. We may have the wrong idea but we doubt if the “caging” * idea is, wi orth much. The same weight of steel as that used: for cable would:be worth more-in the way of protection ‘if'é¢nemy, cbt HfestGS Keishi Wit would descend: upon. them, dike,.a; i to brick if there was any trouble. ‘Tike “best way to”*€age” a country from warfare, in this day and time, is to be able to carry the fighting to the enemy, give him more than he can handle and there won’t be much time left for anything else. SIDELIGHTS By MARCY B. DARNALL, Former Editor of The Key West Citizen Last fall the New York Yankees beat the Giants in the world series. Early this month three professional teams in Ha- vana also beat the Giants by scores of 7-4, 9-1 and 6-1. With three teams able to defeat the National League pennant winners by such scores, there is reason to believe that Cuba may have the real world champions, Wets were gleeiul, drys were sorrow- ful recently when William G. Gaston, field secretary of the Tennessee Anti-Saloon League was jailed at Union City for drunk- enness. Bishop H. M. Dubose; State presi- dent of the organization, said: ‘There is nothing we can do but sever him from the League.” The Rev, James P. Sandefur of Evans- ville, Ind., thinks his wife is spiritually unfit to be a minister’s spouse, and has sued for divorce. He charges that Mrs. Sandefur, 19, made faces at him while he preached, and also went to sleep during services, Bernard oir HO. . ville, Wis.,, will | be ,handigapped,,.. for while because he cet tale While fab, skating he fell ands Seales ken jaw. id seogaid Cave men of old. were not 0 tough, according to Prof, Henri Vallois, a French scientist.
