It is much better to prevent a boy from becoming a criminal than it is to put him | in prison after he violates-the law. In Key West, as well-as other places, there are men who have their city at heart, —provided i nets them a handsome re- turn.

Twenty-seven years ago, at the 2p- proach of the completion of the first rail- road to Key West, a large and representa- tive Celebration Committee was formed to celebraje the event. The railroad has come and gone, and now we are getting réady to rejeice in the completion of another en- terprise—the successful completion of the Overs Highway from .the mainland over various islets to the main island— Key West. Whether an actor has to emotion he is representing has been a moot question. The great Ellen tells in her memoirs that once, she surrendered to her emotions and shed real tears with the result that her voice eked, the scene failed, and her manager lectured her on its ineffectiveness. This forces the conclusion that we must act- parts in theatricals and not feel them, if we want to be impressive and effective feel the always was dited in.this paper and also | ic issues and subjects of local or general | The late Will Rogers could do | "9 POD a | MOODY KEPT THE FAITH i “Paul takes up his pen and writes to | Timothy, ‘The time of my departure is at ; hand; I have fought a good fight, I have kept the faith” Thank God, he kept the faith!

BUSINESS HAS SPOKEN ~ il As a result of numerous recent con- as Mate businés{Fand industrial ; J, esident’ Roosevelt should have a jnite,idea of what these men believe is mg ‘with present administration poli- cies affectingthem. These conferences were climaxed by | the gathering of nearly 1,060 small busi- } ness men from all sections of the country, tawho went even farther than the represen- j tatives of big business in their demands for relief from burdensome taxation and reg- ulation. Principal ‘points upon which both big | and little business agree include recom- | mendations for repeal of the taxes on c= pi- tal gains and undistributed profits; repea’ or modifi¢ation of the Wagner labor law amendment ‘of the social seeurity act; a | curtailment of government spending, and | getting the government out of competition with private business. Oppésition to the proposed wage-bour j legislation. or the, cnaciment of ,obbet 58; strictive legislation was virtually unani- | mous on)the part of alt .business srotips. | Unwise legislation, already in effect » or | proposed, is largely (to) blame for the. so- called recession, in the opinion of those consulted. * Business has been asked for its views on these matters, and business has spoken in definite terms. What effect, if any, this may have on administration policies r2- mains to be seen. se } THF DOI LAR CENSORS The - ch of Time,” as most read- ers know, is a novel and intelligent treat- ment.of developments in .this. modern world. Among recent issués was one de- voted exclusively to the “inside story” of Nazi Germany, under the regime of Fuehrer Hitler. ppens, however, that theatres on and Chicago banned the release, deflining to put it on the seréen. because p te ap sypcsonsrig in those cities, : There are, very often, militant minori- ties which affect the production of pic- tures and the treatment of news articles in the newspapers and magazines of the na- tion. By their aggressive resentment of anything against their particular totem pole these minerities make it costly to any- body who dares to handle the subject. This is a form of censorship that is becoming more prevalent in the United States. It is, we think, a more dangerous censorship than any present tendency on the part of officials to tamper with the free expression of public opinion. 200,000 GERMS ON BABY'S THU basil ot A London doctor te babies to discover the presence or a of germs.
