"ser sc tment pod BOYS GETTING MOST NEWSPRINT there has has been a real *wewsprint paper a long time: As Rie there: was diserimina- dion. The. government. used thore paper than was neces- gaty. The big dailies and Magazines were the best éustomers and the easiest to supply. The small newspa- ers took the.raps, and they still getting the short of the deal. Ineidently less than 15 r eént of the total output newsprint is sufficient to ake care of all Family ilies and Weeklies print- a outside the metropolitan areas. United States Senator Capehart is an, energetic ¢hampion of “ye small pa- pers,” and he holds an ad- ser aseous post on the Sen- ite Small Business Commit- tee; which has close connee- tions with the U. S. Depart-} ent of Commerce. Editors boa publishers who feel the} urge to push for their rights, could help to do a useful job by telling their own Repre- serttatives and Senators that *now is the time to come to the aid of their party.” “WARFARE” { One of the Jewish under- ground organizations in Pal- estine has proclaiméd that “open warfare exists’ and) that it has successfglly at- tacked two British’ army camps. This is a peculiar type of| “open warfare’ wherein one} army slinks underground practices terrorism that in- jures innocent parties, and| the other army is not fight- ing except in rare instances of self-defense. While the majority of the Jewish people are not in fa- Yor of terroristic tacties the cause for which the un-.| derground claims to fight is not beipg helped by bomb- ing outrages that kill indis- criminately. en { Everywhere there is a shortage of something.

The Citizens’ Tax Commit- 4 | tee, appointed by the goves nor in Deeember, 1945, has made an exhaustive study of the tax stracture in Florida, and, should the committee’s recommendations be adop+ ted by the legislature, resi- dents of the state will get much needed relief from burdensome taxation. As The Citizen pointed out a few days ago, there has been a eonstant increase in taxes in Florida since 1902. That inerease not only ties also. Let us consider the in- crease in county taxes, not in Monroe but also throughout the state. D. E. Henderson, who: has bought | an apartment here but in- formed The Citizen he will of real estate as long as city } be as high as they are now explained the tax situation inshis home city, where the} county's rate is far below that of the city, as it should be, because of the greate'! benefits received from the city. Assuming he would have business prop- | erty, about which he spoke, and, when he had develop- as required by Florida law, he would have had to pay} to the county under the pres- | ent millage almost $1,000 in| taxes, and, as he aptly re-| marked, what retum would he have received from ‘the county for that amount of taxes? Just as much as other business houses in Key West, structure that is a credit to your community, and up go not only your city taxes but the county’s also. From the city you receive several benefits, including the all- important fire protection, but what do you receive from the county? Discrepancies of that ra-| ture will be adjusted if the’ legislature acts favorably | on the recommendations of the Citizens’ Tax Commit-| tee. Finally, if the legislature does not act to relieve the tax burden in Florida, it will, | before long, be the worst) tax-ridden state in the Union. \ True tolerance is the prac- tice of the doctrine that an FO AVOID CENTRALIZED EDUCATION CONTROL The National Congress of Parents and Teachers wants the Federal government to relieve the educational crisis by giving support to the public tax-supported schools. | The recommendation is} sound in principle, regard-| less of differences of opinion as to details. The great need of the present is a source of public school system of the} nation to pay salaries suffi-| clent to attract and retain| capable teachers. The P.T.A. would “pro- hibit federal control of edu-| cation,” which is an essen- tial condition _of any pro-| gram designed to develop the pupils of our system of edueation. There can be no educa- tion, in the true sense, so long as education has an ul- terior motive.
