It is action of that nature that causes disrespect for law. ¢ Key West has an ordinance that provides a penalty of $250 for breaking a parking meter. One man who broke a meter had his fine reduced to $5, and another man, by action of the commission, had the fine reduced to $50. ‘As The Citizen has point- ed out before, the fine is al- together too high with the mandatory clause in connec- tion With it, that is, compell- ing the municipal judge to impose a fine of $250’ and taking away from him all discretionary power. Breaking a meter or vio- lating any other law some- times entails extenuating circumstances. But the judge, in the case of break- jing a meter, is forced by the j ordinance to impose a fine of $250, regardless of any conditions that may pertain to meter breaking. As The | Citizen has suggested, why }not make the maximum fine {$250 and leave it to the | judge to decide whether {there was malicious intent, }as has been shown in some | cases, or merely capricious jimpulse, as has been shown | in other cases, that led to the | breaking of meters. | But if that reasoning does {not appeal to the commis jsion, then let them at leas be consistent. If they are de-| ‘termined to maintain a man- datory fine of $250, then do | not let them emasculate the ‘ordinance by reducing that | fine. Such action causes the public to resent discrimina- tory changes made arbitra- rily by the lawmakers them- selves in the case of any de- |fendant. If Tom is fined ' $250, Dick $50, and Harry $5, those fines should be imposed by the judge in his | diseretion, not by the arbi-j «1 trary action of the lawmak- ing body. When the commis- ioners do that, they play the double role of lawmak-}\° ers and judge, which is not 'the way laws are made and | enforced in a democracy. claimed that the | It is | people of some towns are ‘asleep, but they. usually | wake up three times a day | for breakfast, luncheon and dinner. | | The surest way to get re-| sults in business is through | advertising. Poorly planned publicity is better than none. 'In fact, any kind, in The Citizen is profitable. | “Out of abundance, truth | will emerge,” declares Pro- fessor Quincy Wright, au- thority on international law, | {in connection with a discus- | {sion about a free flow of news as an agency to main- tain world peace. The professor is not a blind admirer of a free press because he makes note that this “will not help us” if the }’ quality of what is published poor. Nevertheless. if newspapers all over the world are free to print the news without censorship and restriction, he believes that the truth will emerge. This is about all that any iby | | advocate of the free press | {ean claim. Nobody in his jright mind will assert that) {the press is always intelli-| | gent, impartial and correct. | Sic iit is served by human be-| jings, who, despite the best ; ; intentions, find it difficult at! | times to remain objective | { j to all sides of all problems.
