BE 2.04 2.0 mtoe a A The tide is beginning to turn against the - aggressor-dictators, thanks to. the courage of three nations—China, Great Britain and Russia. Once American aid = becomes fully effective, the tide will gain full force and engulf Hitler and his Nazis. Insidious propaganda is slowly work- ing to the effect to have the Congressional elections of 1942 dispensed with. We will D hear about this matter in a very short while.

Se ONAN: A, THEY, ALL NEED, TESTS —_— Automobile drivers in Monroe county, regardless of whether they have had licenses in the past, will be required to take aifoad test if they do not get their hew per- " Atiek a‘full’ month when the licenses owére-iivailable, the drivers. are making. a mad scramble. this week to get in under th line, but there appears to be a stra O88: bility that many of them will miss and be foreed to take the examination. Which isn’t at alla bad idea. Originally designed’ purely as a rev- enue measure, the Florida ‘drivers’ license setup is gradually reaching a,point where it in the past. Failure of some of the former license holders to renew today will make it neces- sary for them to take the tests, too, which will eliminate by just that many the. num- to 3 ‘amination. In order to make the license system really effective, no one should be permitted. to drive without a test of ability and annual We don't know about the likelihood of the physical tests, but | it is likely that the state next year will take | care of the original ability feature by re- quiring that everyone who gets a license must be tested unless he has passed before. That is the only logical way to work it. Certainly the mere fact that a man has been given a license without atest last year is.no indicajion that he knows how to drive a car in this or any other year. It goes without saying that we can’t forestall all accidents by testing the drivers in advance, but it is equally clear that many accidents could be avoided by simple pre- cautions against permitting physically un- fit or mechanically inadept, drivers to pér- form. The sooner everyone is tested, the sooner the highways of the nation and of Florida will begin to take on the aspects of plain roads instead of their present role of death traps. SCHOGL POPULATION DECLINES Due to the low birth rate between 1930 and 1988 the nation’s school enrollment is expected to show a decline this season of more than 150,000. pupils. The decline will be experienced in the lower classes because high schools, and col- leges have not yet felt the effect of the cur- tailment of births. We have. not always believed. that an excessive birth rate is an asset of any. so- ciety. We do believe that it would be bet- ter for all families to. consist of an average number of children rather than for the na- tion to have a high birth rate among cer- tain classes of the population and a low birth rate among others. i Experience has shown that the low birth rate is common to. those who would be expected to provide: for, their children in the best manner. As the seale of income declines among families the birth rate goes up, with. the result that families. already hard-pressed to care for children acquire additional children, and families, well able to care for children tend to small size. Society would be much better or- ganized if children were proportionately distributed among the families. This would give many children a much, better chance in life, regardless of what idealists profess to believe about the possibilities of human beings. While it would be foolish to set a limit to the potential. development of any child, regardless of inheritance or environment, it is just as silly to disregard the cold facts | that Social studies haye produced about the: Hatidicaps that afflict many children. ‘in fomes that are economically underpriv-. ged, RUSSIAN CAMPAIGN UNCERTAIN The war in Russia continues with re- ports uncertain. Some days the news indicates great resistance and even some gains. by the Red army and, on others, the Germans seem to be making progress toward their goal. Just as the Soviet troops seem, to be stabilizing a certain front, the Nazis seem to break out in other sectors, It will prob- ving doctrines, interests and of their own each can go. its. fren hand in hana a objec: ably: continue this. way for some to Red: aman bring the German advance to'a Iasi mre mcaceinittsyred — ; makes some sense.
