The echo answéts “Why?” Key West at last has cénsolatitii for its cancelled Bull fight Sf! Wkst | sulier: As The Key West Citizen tells the story: “Impresarios wanted to stage a bull fight during the recent ill-fated opening of the Overseas roa celebration, , but opposition was voiced immediately. Now it is an- nounced that no bull fights will be permit- ted at the New York World’s fair ,next year, the American Society for the Preven- tion of Cruelty to Animals objecting.” So misery has company and Key West can forget about the bull fights and gird for its most prosperous season along other jives.—Miami | Daily News, is exclusively entitled to use | | VOTE—DON’T CRITICIZE! Tomorrew is election day throughout | | Florida and the United States. All kinds | | of issues, from the ‘$30-every-Thursday” project in California to the question of taking the Florida national. guard out of | polities, will-be settled by the voters. It is | | their golden opportunity to express them- selves jn the true democratic American | manner so that by failing to vote the citi | zens of the. city, county, state and nation | are helping to destroy our democracy and | indiréctly aiding foes from within and | | without the country to tear down our free institutions, In Monroe county there are no real is- | sues confronting the voters, but they should record themselves at the polls. tomorrow , | anyway. William H. Monsalvatge, Brax- ton B. Warren, Carl Bervaldi, Norberg ‘Thompson and T. Jenkins:Curry have no listed opposition for county commissioners. The same holds true of Clarence H. Pierce, | Allan B. Cleare and Ralph K. Johnson who of public instruction. | On the state ticket, U. S. Senator Claude Pepper is being opposed by Thomas |E. Swanson, Pat Cannon is being opposed by J. S. G. Gallagher for member of con- tI gress, while Jerry W. Carter and, Eugene | Matthews have no opposition for:railfoad » commissioners. David Elmer Ward is un- ip opposed for state senate from this district, f | While State Representative Bernie C. Papy. | stands alone for re-election. There are four constitutional amend- | ments to be voted upon, andthe Menroe | County Democratic executive committee | believes all of them should be acted upon favorably. It is particularly important to vote for the amendment requiring the | legislature to provide revenue for the uni- form system of pubijc:free schools and | state institutions of higher learning, as well as that:taking the Florida national guard out of politics and placing it under control] of the war department. As pointed, out. by. the Democratic. ex- ecutive committee of this county no citi- | zen should criticize our public officials if | jhe stays away from the polls. In other words, if you want good public officials help elect them and don’t blame the other fellow if an incompetent man is put in of- fice. Remember-—“A Vote that is Not Cast Cannot be Counted”, TWENTY YEARS AFTER | Amidst rejoicing throughout the world, the Armistice .of November 11, 1918, brought to an end the greatest war | of all time. That struggle was referred to j as “the war to end war,” and “the war to make the world safe for democracy.” But | it did neither. | Twenty. years after the Armistice | finds the nations of the world armed and arming as never before; with frightful wars | in progress in Spain.and China and a seri- | ous*revolt in Palestine; while another gen- eral European war has just been narrowly averted, perhaps only temporarily. | Ethiopia has been conquered; Austria en seized, and Czechoslovakia has | heen dismembered, while Germany, after | being rendered powerless by the Treaty, of sailles, again has built a formidable machine whieh: threatens the penee;of ‘world. twenty years, while dictatorships have arisen and flourished. The two great European democracies, England and France, have been humiliated by Germany to an extent which has irreparably dam- aged their prestige in the eyes of the whole world. (All important treaties and pacts designed to preserve peace have been scrapped, and the mad armament race has become fiercer than ever. Thus all that America fought for in the last war has gone into the | discard. Only the lesson of that experience re- mains. We should at least remember and profit by that lesson. “Most people detest it happens to be directed selves. flattery—unless toward them- atctida's sugar production will be curtailed 25 per cent and one fourth of the present cane crop will have to be plowed up, necessitating the dismissal of approximately 25 per cent of the em- ployees due to the reduction in acreage or- dered by the Department of Agriculture.
