There- fore, his position may be summed up in a single sentence: “We can’t afford to let England lose.” Rigid enforcement of all traffic reg- ulations, including parking laws, will do much to cut down highway deaths that are y@ disgrace to an intelligent nation. ~ A Miami paper printed two black dis- “play lines across the front page to inform -_its readers that a further $4,800,000,000 in . + “taxes will be asked of the Nation.
