A RIDER WITH SPURS When socialism gets into the saddle, it ix almost impossible to unseat it. That is the gist of an editorial in the Portland Oregonian, . whith said: “In a democratic country such as the; United } States, private ownership is always on the unensy seat. Election after election can be ordered on the same issue—say, on gov- ernment ownership of power, Private own- ership may win overwhelmingly today, yet tomorrow it faces the effort all over again. But public ownership if it wins just once is for practical purposes secure. ... The vietory of capitalism in any election is ten- tative; the vietery of socialism is virtually final.” The essence of this lies in the fact that the abuses of private enterprise can al- ways be corrected, and capitalism can be controlled. The people, through their gov- ernment, wield the ultimate power. But socialism is in a very different category. Once it captures the government, it be- comes in itself the ultinfate power. It can conceal its mistakes. It has charge of the deals with public purse-strings, and it can use them as it wishes. It can dominate elections throdh patronage and bureaucracy. becomes a mass employer—and the liveli- hood of millions of people are dependent on its perpetuation. And once that hap- pens, little short of revolution c it. This has been demonstrated too many times to need argument. It is taking place It | be AT THE BARRIER The race for the Democratic nomina- tion for governor in next May’s primary becomes more interesting, stories published in The Citizen this week. | Representatives George Smathers, of to | this congressional district, and Dwight L. ; Rogers, of Fort Lauderdale, are reported to be considering entering the contest. And ' Dan McCarty, who spoke before the Jay- cees in Key West, is, like Barkis, “willing” to be a candidate if he is given as much apparent support elsewhere as he was | given in Key West. i Three first-rate campaigners will be in the field if Smathers decides to aspire for the governorship. He conducted a forceful. campaign against Pat Cannon but, since Smathers has been in the House of Repre- | sentatives, he has demonstrated that he thas improved decidedly. as a speaker. Anybody, who hassheard him im his week- ly broadcasts discuss the affairs of govern- ment, realize he is fully alive to what is going on in congress. ‘ Rogers is a likeable man, but he lacks the speaking power that characterizes Smathers, Fuller and J. Tom Watson. While it is true that Watson is not much of an orator, yet he succeeds in putting over his message to the voters. How good he is in getting votes was shown in 1944 when union labor opposed him. He made no attempt to placate labor in his opposi- tion to the closed shop, and when the bal- lots were counted his fighting the closed shop helped him more than it hurt him. As for Fuller Warren, he is the best speaker among the candidates who have thus far indicated they will run for the governorship. Warren’s trouble is that he is too flowery and too much in love with high-sounding adjectives that weaken in- stead of strengthen his arguments. according to f THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Radio Programs Time Is eastern standard.

However, it was reported in one of The Citizen stories that Smathers intends to make speeches in various parts of the state during the late summer and fall..° Probably, by the time campaigning be- gins in earnest, other candidates will be | in the field in the governor's race. Whether or not there will be others, the five men mentioned are sure to stir up interest in the campaign. Both Eastern and National Airlines | have established low summer rates for air travel between Florida points with a view of encouraging air travel. Protestant Vacation Bible Schools of the United States and Canada will have an enrolment of 5,000,000 children this summer, it was predicted today by Miss Ruth Elizabeth Murphy, director of vaca- | tion religious education for the Interna- tional Council of Religious Education. THE LABOR #ILL Congress performed its plain and ines- capable duty in overriding the President’s | veto of the labor bill. No one claims that the bill is perfect, It an extremely complex prob- lem. It ventures into new and unchartered legislative ground. Some of its clauses will tested in the courts, and there is every probability that future changes will be necessary. But that is nothing against the measure. All major legislation must pass an change }thruogh a trial and error period. The bill attempts to deal fairly and decisively with an issue which directly affects the strength of the American home—and the prestige now in England, precisely as it has taken | of Arserica abroad. place throughout most of Europe. If the American people learn only one fact from | des history, it should be this: the preservation of all liberties can only be insured in a so- cial and political system in which govern- ment regulates but never competes, and in whieh the state is never permitted to hecome a mass employer. Dictaterships revive when democra- cies become flabby and lack vitality. Speaking of bureaucracy and whither- ave-we-drifting, the Federal government sends out questionnaires and forms each year to its citizenry and business institu- tions—and expects back answers! It’s called, among other things, red tape! The multi-million dollar State build- ing program, which was shoved aside The charge that the bill is designed to ‘troy the unions and enslave the work- ingman is completely unfounded. The very fact that more than two-thirds of the mem- bers of both House and Senate voted for it is ,in itself, a refutation of that wild ac- cusation. It has ‘long been evident that many labor leaders will fight any reform, | no matter how reasonable, that might en- | danger their enormous power. ! vent them from actions that imperil the interest, welfare, and in some cases the health of millions of people. These leaders didn’t want to accept their obvious respon- sibilities. Now some of the responsibilities have been forced on them by a clear man- date of the American public. Some authorities are of the opinion that the bill may be too “soft”—that it | may fail te eurb labor abuses whieh are harmful to the worker, to industry and to pending legislative ratification, was re- {the consumer atike.
