Germany some French leader sai: that all was lost, “save honor.” Now, that’s gone! While taxation is the power to de- stroy, as Justice Marshall put it, the power ‘is not often inveighed to that extent, but it ‘ise means to enslave and often does, If those fellows in Congress would be required to count a million, they wouldn’t be so generous with dishing out’ the tax- payers’ money, when tax legislation is up for disctission. ad 94s Ii Cuba is successful in gathering 35,- 000 pounds of aluminum, enough for a bomber, whether they are pots, pans er Awhat-have-you, to send to the United States, the bomber will be given the name of.Cuba.” - All through history it is seen that a nation softens in time and that it emerges =Smore virile and stronger, spiritually and * bodily, after its wars, particularly if it is de- ==Sfeated.

HEARD IT BEFORE State Senator David E, Ward, taking cognizance of an editorial in The Citizen urging a quick start on Overseas Highway construction, wrote us this week that he has taken action to get the work started. The senator said he was. writing Thomas A. Johnson, chairman of the state | road board, and Harry H, Hector, a mem- | ber of that-body, urging that something’ b& \ derway. : Senator Ward, as representative in the upper body of-the legislature, swings 4 good deal of authority in this part of the country. If he sincerely intends to get to work on the highway, his aid will go a long way toward getting things rolling. At the risk of appearing unreasonable, however, .we warn Senator Ward and all concerned that the people of this island have reached a point where they want more than solicitude. They have heard many, many times | that their interests were being taken care of, and that they need trouble their minds no more about highway improvements which were practically in the bag. !
