The Citizen reaches that conclusion because of the various “literary’’ outputs that Lieutenant Warren has sent us recent- ly, the last, received yesterday, titled, “The Advantages of Advertising.” It was writ- ten “at sea”, presumably somewhere in the Pacific, away from the, politigos at home who usually do the grooming and preening. However, Fuller Warren, whether on land or at sea, is better able to preen or groom himself than any group of his many friends throughout the state. His screed about the benefits of ad- vertising numbers 2,500 words, not long when we consider what a powerful medium advertising is. One may write a sizable tome about advertising and not exhaust the subject. Everything he says is true, but we are unable to detach ourselves from the conclusion that the dapper lieutenant, in styessing the advantages of advertising, was beset by sundry vagrant thoughts that he was advertising or, shall we say, pub- } licising himself? Whether that is so or not, the irre- pressible Fuller Warren, the Citizen. be- lieves, would make Florida a pretty good U. S. Senator or a pretty good governor. Thousands of residents of Florida, we be- lieve, think likewise. One may-recall that it was freely said, after the finst 1940 pri- | mary, that Fuller Warren would have come out on top had the campaign lasted a month longer. He came to Key West twice during the campaign, and everybody who met him | or heard him speak liked him. Though he then, as now, had and has a disposition to be wordy, yet he is undoubtedly sincere. That sincerity is apparent in his eager eyes Chapter 5 & Mesre: began to weep copiously.

So here’s good luck to Fuller Warren, with the assurance that we agree fully with everything he says about the advantages of advertising. Bringing soldiers to Europe in World War I, England charged the United States $75 for each man. That yielded a hand- some profit. The British vessels, Queen 1,500,000 men either to or from Europe at a profit, of course.
