The petulant howls that come from Washington correspondents and various columnists, over legitimate control of news sources in relation to governmental | ents, is baby business. The newspapers and those who write for them would serve the interests of the Fourth Estate better if they would concen- trate upon giving the people a thorough ceverage of news events and a fair presen- tation of controversial issues. In so doing they would serve the public which, in the long run, is the best way: to promote the Welfare of the press: ae SENATORIAL HUMOR oniysg bo Add current humor: Senator Gillette, of Towa, commenting on government payments to farmers and the tear, eials “‘could say if you want to continue getting this money, you'll have to elect us,” comes forth with the brilliant thought that | the opposition could sa U8, we'll give you more.

Het would drive home his message a thousand times more effectively if he would use few | words and big type. Though ballyhoo is part and parcel of American politics, it can’t be engineered properly with a superabundance of words. To use a mixed metaphor, it is the striking sentence, boiled down to a few words, that brings home the bacon. Incidentally, at least one of the Miami eandidates, Abe Aronovitz, was born in Key West, and The Citizen thinks that a second, Duncan Brossier, was born here also, However, that may-be, Brossier used | to be a carrier boy on The.

ISOLATION IS RAMPANT Senators openly record their opposition to an international police force to preserve the peace of the world is evidence that isolation- ism is not dead and that some Senators do not learn anything.

Only twenty-four Senators were: will{ ing to go on thé record in favorof preservingt peace through ‘an international police. force.” Forty members of the greatest de- liberative body in the world were unrecord- ed, with most of them “deliberating.” Naturally, no surprise is occasioned by irreconcilable Hiram | Johnson, of California, to support any intel- | the future. who, iike Senator Smith, of South Carolina, do not “know what the issues wil! be.
