A consider- culated. Some of this -was due to the in- ability of the charter revision committee to pay for publication of the finished charter, so that the provisions would be clear to all. However, copies were posted at city hall, Still the false reports continued. committee began releasing a series of ques- tions and answers in advertisements ‘ap- ~pearing in The Citizen. These have done much to clear up misunderstandings, to set | the general publie¢ right on certain phases of the act. During the last week it has been brought out that the new charter does not provide for a new fire départ- | ment; that only the election commission- | ers and the supervisor of election lose | their jobs under the charter; only the mayor and eouncilmen are elected, while all other officials are appointed. Since the circulation of petitions by charter and continue municipal opera- tions under the present faulty charter, a new light has been thrown on the pro- posed act. veloped that many of the 1200 persons who have signed the referendum petitions are now.sorry they did so, In short, they are not satisfied with the present charter and the way it has functioned and want a change. It is likely some of the signers of the petitions will vote for the new char- ter when an.election. is called. , Publicity throws a powerful light that brings the truth squarely into view. The charter revision committee is to be con- -gratulated for its sane handling of the op- position problem. All believers in a new deal for Key West should follow the series of “Chartergrams” now appearing in The Citizen. iMANTON’S CONVICTION For the first time in the history of the nation a high judicial official has been convicted of “selling justice” in con- spiracy with other criminals. The con- victed man is Martin T. Manton, former judge of the United States Court of Ap- peals, a position second only to that of a justice of the Supreme Court. Some months ago Judge Manton re- signed under ‘fire, after an investigation into his judicial conduct had been begun. He was nevertheless brought to trial and was convicted on all counts of the indict- ment, by a jury of 10 men and two wo- men. Three co-defendants pleaded guilty and all are awaiting sentence. Manton had heen a Federal judge for more than 22 years and was a wealthy man aside from his judicial salary, but he con- tinued to engage in business — enterprises, which he used the power of his high of- fice to promote. He was also charged with taking money from litigants before his court, and the prosecutor declared: “They were told they would ‘have to pay, or if they did not, collections would be made from the other side. Blaekmail was emanating from the Federal court house.” y Manton’s conviction, following that of Bosses Hines of New York and Pender- gast of Kansas City, is a healthy sign.

It was written | while Paul was probably a pris- loner at Rome. The occasion of the letter was the conversion by ‘Paul of Onesimus, a _ runaway [slave who had formerly belonged {to. Philemon, who had also been ‘converted by the preaching of , Paul while he was in Ephesus. Paul's method of handling this situation is worth careful study by those who would reform evil | customs today. While slavery was jnat to be desired, yet it was the {law and in accord with the so- jcial custom of his time, "Paul does not waste his time in an attack jupon this. social institution, but |influences Onesimus to recognize ithe obligation he was under to |Philemon. Likewise, Paul ap- }peals to Philemon to respond to | the altered condition of his slave, | basing his demand upon the bond of love which should unite every }Christian. He asked Philemon to ireceive Onesimus as if he were |Paul himself and to give Paul the jey which would come fram such |an example of Christian love and ‘fellowship. | Paul’s approach to this and jother problems points the way for us in this modern day to handle similar matters. He is con- fident of the love and esteem ; which Philemon has for him, and }he assures him of the mutual re- tgard. He explains to Philemon the attachment which he now feels for his convert, and upon this basis asked that Onesimus |be cordially received. As it ap- pears that the slave may have taken some of Philemon’s prop- ‘erty, Paul promises. himself to ‘repay and in so doing delicately ‘reminds Philemon of the debt which he is under to Paul. Paul writes to his friends with confi- idence that his friend will re- spond to the high motive upon 'which the appeal is based. i ARRIVING TODAY Rev. L. A.
