Sooner or later in Florida there would have had to be some kind of wiping of the slate. Flor- ida taxpayers, heavily soaked during boom days, found that they could not make those pay- ments. If made at once, pay- ments in full would have been impossible or ruinous. It would probably take two generations to pay off most of the indebtedness. That was one time when the tax burden was found to be too great. So the Florida Congress promptly passed the Murphy or Mercy Act. It has its bad points. Many tax delinquents, who could have made some. payment, now wipe off everything with a small pittance. Others who have paid greatly now find that money, while necessary to county gov- eruments, might have been saved. This is disproportionate. But it did help the vast majority said to be under the age of 12, 0! county tax payers, though dis-'| proportionately. Weare heart- ened greatly, now, to note that counties are managing their gov- ernmental affairs in some meas- ure. Just another year and the county treasury will once again receive moneys wherewith to operate at the former pace. BOMBING NEED! There is talk of a great deal of dissension in Franco’s Spanish lines, and that this nay defeat him. His recent speedy drive to the sea and along the seacoast has dissipated all doubts that the war may turn against him. As his column has cciterated before, he has the superior strength, which always tel!s in the long run. Britain, th: business na- tion, long has seen the end of the | war, and has an accord with Italy as far.as certain commercial re- lations with Spain go. In Spain, seaport Barcelona got a share of bombs yesterday preliminary to certain attacks. These bombing attacks are inhuman, but they usually cut certain undesired lines or wreck certain munitions factories, which are sore spots in the bombing side. C'est la guerre! JEWS ON THE SPOT Berlin’s drive on Jews shows the re mn of civili tion’s progress. Government, frowning on Jewry, has even- tuelly incited the people against the race. Through fear many wpkeepers have even denied Jev's the right of buying food. I is estimated that there are stili several thousand Jewish business aces in downtown Berlin. It is ction the Teuton-worship- ping Hitler is aiming at with the new drive. Inevitably, resistless- ly the world is moving toward greater and great regard for every:ne’s emotions, goods, and svcroundins jn this especially strong social welfarized age.
