VIEW WITH ALARM OKAY ON THE INTERVIEW We wonder often how this man or that woman becomes famous and succeeds, sometimes for a decade or longer, in keep- ing in the limelight. While there must be ability, yet per- sons with ability in all walks of life con- tinue to be failures. The reason for that is because they did not employ press agents, or, if they did, the agents lacked ability to “put them over.” These thoughts came to mind when’ we read in Bill Lee’s Observation Post in The Citizen about the visit here of J. Frank Cody, a cousin of Buffalo Bill (Col- onel William F. Cody), who seized and held the interest of the American public for many yeats. Cody’s press agent, among the best America has turned out, even hit on the catchy nickname—Buffalo Bill—, which atirred the imagination of the American people. But Cody, an impressive type of manhood, not only lived up to his. nick- name but also provided “copy,” rich in human interest, for millions of Americans who followed closely his glamorous career. However, another American, who caught and held the public’s interest dur- ing a part of Cody's day, lacked much of Cody's ability to talk ‘interestingly. He was John L. Sullivan, still considered by hosts of Americans as the greatest fight- er America has produced. Arthur Brisbane told an amusing ‘story about Sullivan, Brisbane then was com- paratively fresh in his newspaper career. He was a reporter of the New York Eve- ning Sun, and, hearing at the office that Sullivan had come to town, he wrote an “Interview,” a column Jong, with Sullivan before he had spoken a word to him. Af- ter writing the story, Brisbane hurried to the hotel where Sullivan was stopping and spoke to him along the lines of the purported interview, putting words into Sullivan’s mouth. That afternoon, when Sullivan got a copy of The Sun, he proud- ly showed it to his admirers and pointed out the well-tiirned phrases and sentences he had used in his interview with the re- porter, unaware it had been written be- fore the reporter saw him. é » ‘There are many Americans who re- member the “Dust Bowl” of the early Thirties and, consequently, look. with alarm upon the plowing up of grasslands for the planting of wheat. ‘ Some authorities estimate that the high price of wheat has caused growers in a number of states to plow up as much as four million acres. The wheat grown on the pasture lands brings an economic reward immediately, but the result of the tempor- ary’market may be another cycle of dust- storms, especially if the coming years pro- duce a prolonged drought. Those in position to know tell us that the Federal: Government purchased con- siderable land after the 1930 dust disaster and that these lands have been planted to grasses. Residents in the areas, howev- er, are casting covetous eyes:on the land, demanding that it be returned to “private enterprise,” 90 that it may be sowed to wheat.. For the benefit of younger Americans, we call attention to the fact that soil con- servation authorities predict that the de- struction of grasslands and their planting in temporary wheat crops will produce an- other “Dust Bowl.” The original came in the Thirties and was the inevitable result of the reckless plowing of grasslands dur- ing and just after World War I. Naturally, when the price of wheat drops, as it undoubtedly will, the tempor- ary wheat land will be abandoned and the loose soil, uncovered, will be ready to blow over large regions. . “AS SOON AS THE O.P.A.—” The president of a radio manufactur- ing company recently told his stockholders that “as soon as the O.P/A. went out of business we were able to raise our prices 25 per cent.” Without going into the merits of the inereased prices, which may have been abundantly justified, we call attention to the fact that this' statement seems to in- dicate that the O.P.A., despite its criics, held prices down _-—--———-—. Seathing rebuke, sudden pouncings of anger, and loud-voiced abuse are likely to ruin a sensitive child’s chances of suc- cess in life. People who talk about peace, as if they could guarantee it with words, prob- | ably do not know how delicately the seales are balanced between war and peace. When Brisbane concluded talking to Sullivan, he rushed to a telephone and no- tified his office, “Okay, on the Sullivan interview.” *igi@ig That ideas of morality change is ap- parent when we consider what a two-piece bathing suit would have done to the morale of 1905.--Key West Citizen. It would have set the country ahead 42 years. Fort Fvers News-Press. Ahead, did you say? TELEVISION AT 900 MILES . eRe, 2 From New York comes a report from an individual that he “received” a Chi- cago television program. This is news be- cause the distance involved is much more than the space through which television waves usually travel. The theory behind television is that the waves cannot get over the curvature of the earth and that they cannot be pick- ed up after traveling thirty or forty miles. Since the distance from Chicago to New York is close to 900 miles, reception of the program is extraordinary. A dispatch in the United Press reports that in 1940 a Tulsa, Oklahoma, man’ pick- ed up a television program from Philadel- phia, which had been broadcast by a New York station. This incident, in connection with the present case, suggests that, in time, television may be transmitted much farther than at present believed possible. In the early days of'radio broadeast- ing, one occasionally heard reports of re- ception without a standard receiving set. The exceptions did not prove anything or make receiving sets useless. Experience may help us to set aside any dream of un- ‘limited reception of television broadcasts. Fort Pieree sends word that Seminoles over there are predicting no hurricane this year, That’s the best news we’ve heard since the flying saucers—Fort Myers News Press. Let’s hope their prognostica- tions come true. NO UGLY WOMAN SLAIN that tell us about the kijlings that take place in the nation, we have come to the conclusiog that the best protection a wo- | man calave is to be ugly. So far.as our investigator has been able to discover, no ugly woman has been killed anywhere. The victims are all either attractive, lovely, beautiful, handsome or Pretty.

One survey indicated that two Qumdsed and seventy per cent as many more families wast ex eléctric range as now own one. Whie asked why they preferred electric appliances. “Cleanliness”. “Selety” and “Dependability” were cited. Theze were 5.000 electric refrigerators in use in 1918. By vt ‘Ubdko’were 19,000,000. There were 500,000 electric ranges im usage by 1931. Im 1941 the figure stood at 3,500,000. The electric power used by the average domestic customer has mul- ‘Gpliad word than five times in 20 years.
