IMPROVEMENTS FOR KEY WEST ADVOCATED BY THE CITIZEN Water and Sewerage. Bridges to cvraplete Road to Main- land. Free Port. Hotels and Apartments. Bathing Pavilion. arports—Land and Sea. Consolidation of County and City Governments. Humanity declares its unity by living forever in the future. It looks as if all those unemployment census cards got lost in the shuffle. It is all right to be content with what you have; but not with what you are. Moderw girls are being taught domes. tic science. We said science—not silence There is something good in every- thing, even hatred; if it is hatred for that which is bad. ‘Once upon a time statesmen agreed upon some queer notions which they called “international law.” ‘ Asked for an illustration of indirect taxation, a bright student suggested the dog tax, because the dog doesn’t pay it. One of the handicaps of the human, race is that just about the time a man or woman begins to have a little sense it’s | Key, West are divided into at people want kept, the newspaper and those that they want put in the newspaper. Our ancestors discovered all the sins that could be committed in less than no time, and none have been added since Adam ate the apple in the “Garden of Eden, Nothing new under the sun in sin is ri¢ht. Some of the property have consistently paid their taxes, often! under the most trying conditions, are mournfully watching the trek to the court! house of the tax dodgers to take advantage ofthe Murphy Act, and wondering if! honesty is really the best policy. owners who St. Petersburg, Florida, got its name | | with the result that CAPITAL PLUS BRAINS » More than two million stockholders of public utility companies in the United States, not including railroads, own ap- proximately 26 billion dollars represented by shares in those companies, according to a survey by a leading New York in- vestmert house. Other millions of people own shares in railroads and mdustrial en- terprises. During the last 20 years the number of investors in corporations has increased amazingly, with the result that the enor- j mous amounts of new capital necessary for the expansion of American business and industry have been readily. supplied. But it is not only the people’s money that is required. A liberal share of the nation’s best brains is also lending itself to industrial development. As © Professor Carver of Harvard recently pointed out, this country “has succeeded in massing its best intelligence on industrial problems, we have built the greatest industrial machine the world has ever known.” Added to capital and brains we have the ever increasing productivity of Amer- ican workmen, who also use their brains. Thus we have a combination which has contributed more to the welfare and com- fort of the people than can ever be fully appreciated. Yet there are some who would tear down this magnificent industrial structure and substitute in its place the paralyzing Communistic system which has reached its finest flower in Soviet Russia. Our tradi- tional policy of encouraging individual in- itiative by assuring individual rewards must be preserved. All assaults upon that policy, from whatever source, should be sternly resisted by every patriotic citi- zen. SOME MORE BLUE LAWS Recently a press report told of a re- volt against certain ancient blue laws by citizens of Bellows Falls, Vt., which caused a Chicago reporter to look into some anti- quated statutes of the Windy City. He found, among other things, that it was unlawful for a lady to. allow her hat- pin to protrude more than half an inch be- yond the crown of her skypiece; also that her bathing suit was rather rigidly reg- ulated by a city ordinance. + Kids were informed that they were prohibited from flying kites in Grant Park, or being on the streets unaccom- panied between 10 at night and 6 in the morning if under 16 years of age. Shoot- ing air rifles within the city limits is ban- ned, and wearing a mask, even on Hal- lowe’en, is unlawful, except with the mayer’s permission. When an automobile frightens a horse the motorist must bring the old bus to a full stop until Dobbin quiets down and ne musical instrument may be taken upon a public beach without a written per- mit. As to whether ukeleles and saxo- phones are considered musical instruments the law is silent. IS CAPITAL ON STRIKE? As business drifts further downward and unemployment increases there is heard time and again the report that “capi- tal is on strike.” This, if true, would mean that those who have money to invest are not investing. Common sense alone answers that. People who have money accumulated it by making each dollar they had earn another dollar. They seek profit and risk their principal on the chance of making the profit. And until human nature has been completely legislated out of existence, there will be no “strike of capital” so long as that capital is given the opportunity to flow into legitimate investment.
