THE ORACLE. GooD ‘AMERICAN N DOCTRINE Charles Clayton Morrison, founder and editor The Christian Century, a relig- ious publication, urges. Americans to re- sist the, efforts of any church to obtain “an official: connection with the Government or a financial connection with the public treasury.” This is sound advice, based on the teach- ings and theories of Thomas Jefferson, who decreed the separation of Church and the State in Virginia and had much to do with establishing this policy in corinection with the Federal Government. The separation of church and state, complete and without equivocation, is a fundamental American doctrine. If it comes under direct attack, there is little doubt of the support: that it will receive from the vast majority of the people of this country. Let us hope that there is no ocgasion to make a political issue out of the complete separation of church and state in this country. A SECOND ANNAPOLIS The establishment of a second Annapolis on the West Coast seerhs probable as a result of the action of Congress in appro- priating $2,500,000 for the purchase of the institution. High Navy officials consider that the present training school for officers is in- adequate for the needs of an expanded Navy. Consequently, a new scHool is be- ing established for the purpose of giving refresher courses to officers, after their graduation from Annapolis, The West school will not compete with the Eastern Academy but will supplement its instruc- tion, ert eerie THE WORD OF YUGOSLAVIA For the second time, Yugoslavia has re- fused to permit a sub-commission of the United Nations to enter that country for the purpose of investigating alleged border incidents, The United Nations wanted to investi- gate incidents, which, it was alleged, oc- curred early in July. The Yugoslavian Government said that it had carefully in- vestigated the charges which were “entire- ly groundless” and represented only a “re- petition of defenseless accusations against Yugoslavio.” The height of the intellectual attain- ment of some citizens is the effort to pick the winning number of a bolita ticket. THE KEY WEST CITIZEN BETTER BEWARE Timely warnings, as a rule, many mishaps, but it seems that the great- er the scope of warnings against traffic accidents the larger is the number of ac- cidents. . Monday The Citizen published a spec- ial dispatch from Tallahassee, in which Director Kirkman, of the State Depart- ment of Public Safety; reported that 31 persons lost their lives in traffic accidents in Florida in June, an increase of five over similar fatalities in June of last year. He said further that a total of 531 ac- cidents were investigated by his depart- ment in June of this year as compared with 380 in June of 1946. State road patrolmen arrested 944 traffic violators in June of this year and 871 in June of last year. Warnings issued in June, 1947, to motorists numbered 5,215, as compared with only 722 warnings in June of 1946. And so it goes; up and up and up, de- spite the fact that the number of warnings was seven times as many in June of this year as there was during the — similar month last year. It appears to be almost useless to warn the driver who makes it a practice to speed to his destination, even when his destination is nowhere in particular. That type of driver is impatient to pass by another car on the highway even when he has “time to ‘burn’, Warning him to be careful is very much like whis- tling against the wind to try to change its course. Thousands of-his type have lost their lives by “stepping on the gas”. They laugh away warnings till the day comes when the are no longer able to laugh. Seven times as many warnings, and five more deaths! Better beware, reckless driver, before it is too late. day through Frid standard. two hours. (For East.

Our standard of living has, there- fore, been the highest in our history and is, of course, the highest in the world.” Everybody knows what happened | some years after the optimistic statement of the Secretary of Commerce. Nobody knows what will follow the similarly op- timistic statement of the President of the United States.
