If all of us adhered to that principle, contentions would be reduced to a mini- mum, but so many of us are carried away by hearsay, and pass it on to the next listener, we create our own pitfalls. Lawyers will a ag that the two ings oe ae es of mb a for that is that the receiver as. ra as the giver iseguilty of having onimitted a sither will aceui the, other, eealise che is-aware Self, and, as: 'td.con- spiracy, those “whg ‘take ‘part’ in-it--know that the “squealer” is equally guilty, and that when he “squeals”, the others will turn on him and sometimes kill him. Even in cases where they do not attack him, the burden of proof is on him, with his former co-conspirators testifying solidly against him. A former employe of the city of Key West, who served honestly for many years, remarked to The Citizen that he felt morally certain that graft had occurred locally, but that, were he put on a witness stand, he would not be able to prove a single word of what had ‘been told him.

According to scientists, there has been life of som he earth in the form of jelly-fis or about 1200 million years.

The action is taken to halt a stock market boom and to pre- vent use of credit in stock market transac- tions. Marriner F. Eccles, chairman of the Reserve Board, who advocated inflationary measures at the bottom of the depression, has been an outspoken prophet of trouble ahead unless the inflationary spiral can be stopped. He considers the “vast aceum- the primary source of the inflation danger “which overhangs the domestic economy on all fronts.”’ He believes that too much of the war was financed=by-eemmereia bank credits and not éndpoft Wy Aaztsp the savings of the public. “The supply of money -will etnitiiine to increase,” warns Mr. Eccles, “as long as the Treasury monetizes the public debt through the sale of government securities through the banking system.” He thinks that the process should be stopped “by bringing about a balanced budget” and “through measures to check further un- necessary expansion of commercial bank holdings ‘of government securities.” ~ , There will be many to applaud Mr. Eccles’s suggestion that the budget should be balanced. This can be done by cutting down expenditures and by maintaining the Government’s income. Practically every business man in the nation is shout- ing for a balanced budget but most.of them lay stress upon the cutting of expendi tutes CeHMNEd ‘high taxation” ono YRHev public should notiose ‘wenc& the faét-that' Congress, last year, instituted tax reductions which robbed the Federal Treasury of more than $5,000,000,000 of | estimated income.
