On several occasions, The Citizen has been ‘nformed the Miami radio stations tave mentioned Miami as the warmest spot in the United States. This is at vari- acee with the truth—Key West enjoys hat cistinction naturally, and is the only | frost free city in the United States. Fur- thermore, in the past few days Miami schools were closed on account of the cold weather, not so in Key West. The weather was not so “unusual.” nation-wide survey of insanity 7 ; Fpiseonal clergy wes made by Rev. atephen Websicr. rector of St. Peter's seopal church, of Weston, Mass., who | is also chaplain of the Boston Psychopathic Hospital, with the result that one out of every 71 Episcopal clergymen is a:meutal case. That's a good record in view , of other figares, presumably correct, which ~ow that one in every 22 of the general population will have a mental disorder of | varying degree scme time in their life. In | this connection it is remarkable that men- tal illmess is considered shameful while physical illness is taken as a matter of course, though both are quite in the nature ef human existence.

One | provides for prompt deportation of aliens engaged in espionage or sabotage, alien criminals and other undesirables. Another ordered | be effected. | A third bill strikes at subversive ac- | tivities in the military force of the United | States; would strengthen existing laws against admitting anarchists or those ad- vocating overthrow of existing govern- ment by force, and provides for the finger- , | printing of all aliens before admission. | Another bill not yet acted upon by either house would require census takers to obtain more information concerning | aliens residing in this country’ than has | been recorded heretofore. There is no doubt that too much | leniency has been shown in many cases in- volving aliens of the undesirable class, and | a Senate resolution for a study of present | immigration laws also will be considered at the next session. LOAN SHARKS FLEECE THE POOR Loan sharks in the United States are “reaping illegal profits of $100,000,000 a year,” according to William Trufant Fos- ter, who has prepared a special pamphlet on the subject for the public Affairs Com- | mittee. The usurers are described as “boot- leggers of money” who take advantage of | the poor and ignorant, forcing them to pay exorbitant rates for small loans. “Mr. Fos- ter says the “interest” runs from 240 to 1,206 per cent a year. i He recommends that every State pass | laws relating to small loans, fixing an in- | terest rate that will enable small loan | companies to operate profitably?” He sug- | gests two per cent a month, taking into | consideration the high cost of operation in making small loans but says this is much less than that charged by the loan, } sharks, ‘morning service and make a list} of the morning texts from Sun- Rosary, Sermon and Benediction. ‘thou art my God; I will exalt | | thee, I will praise thy name; for } | Rev.
