Roberts, Key West, Florida: A year sentence for two 15-year- sid boys in the state reformatory for stealing goods amounting to $380.00, ap- pears rather drastic. Undoubtedly, in dealing with the case, you did what you thowght was best for society. THE ORACLE. Who remembers the criticism leveled #® the government when it took over the coal mines and made some sort of Working | agreement with the miners? tt was argued at the time that the miners were reeeiving too much, that they were taking advantage of favorable labor lows and that something was necessary to eurh the rapacity of the miners and their leaders. With this introduction, we call atten- }| cision has PRECIOUS NEWSPRINT Two years have passed since thé end of the war, yet the shortage of, newsprint is acute throughout the world. The Citizen is harder put how to obtain paper than it was during the war. In some quarters it has been charged that big papermakers in Canada and Norway are holding back pro- duction in order to keep up prices. | —- But in England a different. charge. was made when the Labor government redueed: ithe size of newspapers, including those with circulations running into millions, to four pages. An Associated Press dispatch says: “A large portion of the press interprets the reduction as a move: to stifle criticism | of the Labor government.” One editor asserted that the order “strikes newspaperland like a beam swung by a giant.” But the government could not be budg- ed. A spokesman said the order would save $8,000,000 in dollar exchange. In England, as well as in the United States, hundreds of smaller newspapers and some larger ones have ceased publi- eation beeause of the shortage and high cost of newsprint. Several months ago a movement was started in congress to try to determine the reason of shortages and soaring costs in this country, but the move- ment died a-borning. Monopoly’ was charged, but no law designed’ to break the monopoly, was en- acted. Since that time the price of news- print has continued to go higher. Readers of The Citizen take for grant- ed the issuing of the paper day. after day, but its publisher has had to wage a con- stant fight to be able to get enough news- print to continue publication. However, we can still hurrah conscien- tiously for democracy. The government of the United States has not even hinted about the size of newspapers. That de- been left to the publishers themselves. Thomas Parran, United States. surgeon general, says that we need 22,000 more physicians. Is there anything in the world of which there is no dearth? St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, was actually a Frenchman named Succat, but what. difference does that make? It was in Ireland where the saiht achieved his. greatness. TO REGISTER SEX OFFENDERS We call attention to a law recently passed by the Legislature of California, requiring any person who has been convict- ed of a sex offense to register with his lo- eal police chief or sheriff. The statute provides that such of- fenders must re-register if they move to ime Summery [ Beleatee Pr am rd CITIZEN OF Sey througheFsidey Time iwonstera | |. mY 23, 1997 dnpen corer manta: | | aii = Phe ed Paul’ Marks wat named at z for the Overseas Bridge JULY 21 THROUGH JULY 25 Comghission: :' or Fev.

Interested spectators wonder what the explanation can be. One story, making the rounds, is that the operators expect business to continue at a high pace and naturally figure that despite the new wage to miners, they can get their share of the profits, —_—_—_—— NATION'S CHAMPION PLAY “Lite With Father,” the theatrical champion of the nation, has closed in New York with 3.213 performances, Beginning November 8, 1939, the play, based upon the domestic tribulations of the Day family, broke all previous records for continuous performanees. Of the orig- inal cast, four were left when the curtain descended on the last performance. The turmoil that ensued when Father attempted to run his house “on a busi- nese-like basis” wil) be brought to the sereen and millions of Americans, through- out the land, who failed to see the stage version, will go to the movies to enjoy am entertaining portrayal of family life as it was, or was supposed to be. Well, sad though it is, the commence- ment orators didn’t make a dent on the problems of the world. If you expect to be represented in Congveha, there is no reason why should not express yourself to your gressmen about the issues of the day. you Con- @ sex crime is committed. While there may be'some fanatics to how! that the registration of these offen- 'ders represents a regimentation of the per- sons. affected, the general opinion of the people of this country: will be in favor of such a law. There is no excuse for per- permitting sex offenders to range at large to repeat their crimes at will. Although a Yale Medieal Sehool pro- fessor says that a man reaches his peak tof physical efficiency at the age of 22, and then declines, it is hard. to believe. If this were true and the decline as rapid as the ascent, we would be finished at 44, but, Tegardless of man’s physical development, his mind is not similarly impaired. UNDERSEA MOUNTAINS A group of scientists is beginning a twe months’ study of the great mountain range which separates the Atlantic Ocean into two distinct undersea valleys, The ridge is deseribel as the greatest mountain range on earth, more than 10,000 miles long and two miles high. About a mile. under the Atlantic, it stretches, ac- cording to a seientific belief, from Ieeland almost to Antarctica. A few of its highest Peaks jut out af the ocean, form islands like the Azores. and Ascencion, Some scientists assert that the Atlantic | should be more properly classified as an. inland sea, despite the fact that it has a mauch larger drainage area than either the (Indian or the Pacific Oeeans. Geologists tell us that it was formed in com parative- ly reeent geological times, being much }¥ounger than the Pacifie whieh is con- sideret a true ocean, ABC PROGRAMS — Tim Eastern Daylight or Eastern Sten €:00—Network Silent—1 hour eee Kiddies Serial Hr.—west repeat, 7:00—News and Commentary jobby Doyle Show ‘aul Whiteman Music Ww R2SScemmery TODAY’S ANNIVERSARIES (Know America)’ rlotie Cushman, fam- genius, dominating stage figure, and one of the great women of her generation,. born in Boston.
