THE ORACLE. \ PEPPER’S THANKS Senator Claude Pepper, who is prob- ably. doing as good a job of misrepresent- ing hiS constituents-as anyone ever did on Capitol Hill, is nothing if not consistent. Having dedicated himself as the self-ap- pointed Russian apologist in this country, he is,;determined to carry on, regardless of abundant evidence of a Soviet effort to foment world revolution to advance Com- munism throughout the world. In fact his speeches hither and yon ring with the monotonous repetition of a cracked Phono- graph record. Speaking before the CIO: convention the other day, Pepper, dealing in gener- alities scored “cartelist minded lawyers,” Wall Street and warmongers as being re- sponsible for the ever-widening rift be- tween this country and Russia. His entire speech was a re-hash of a speech made be- fore the Third All-Slav Day rally of the Midwest Division at Pilsen Park, July 7, 1946y-and’ at his request inserted in the . con ional record of Friday, August 2, inewhich | he was a little more explicit to the. 1 “point of naming John Foster Dulles as thes big bad wolf in Russian relations. Pepper may have been naive enough at. the outset to believe that Russia had no expansionist aims but to express such views 22 vetoes and a new Comintern later-is just plain silly. Neither Wall Street nor tartelists lawyers have been tossing vetoes around -with reckless abandon, despite anything Pepper may have to say about the matter. Bepper insists that he is opposed to Conimunism in, the United States but holds that any European’ nation which wants communism: is entitled to have it. No one disputes the senator here, but all the evidence indicates that there is no free expression of the people for communism but rather that it is. being forced upon small nations through intimidation and actual force, despite Pepper’s statement in the Congressional Record, “I have’ it | from the lips of most. responsible states- | men‘that communism in every country in Europe today where it exists is a patriotic indigneous movement of that country.” Glaude should refrain from such ut- terances, With meat prices where they are today, should we permit anything which would boost the price of tripe?— Palatka (Fla.) Daily News, Oct. 17, 1947. A civilized man does not expect spe- cial favors of birth, fortune or position. wes UNIQUE po LES The first move of the United States Department of the Interior in completion of work, preliminary to the improvement of the Everglades National Park, is now under way in the Monroe county clerk’s office. Seven young women, under the direc- tion of S. E. Mosley, of the American Title and Insurance Company, are preparing abstracts for the department. The Company, Mosley said, was en- gaged by the United States government to have the work done. It is presumed that, when the abstracts are turned over to the department, action will be taken to convert the area into the Everglades National Park. + What type .of improvements will be made at first has not been disclosed by the department.. Probability is that roads will be constructed or improved to make the park area more accessible to the peo- ple than it is at present. How great an asset the park will be to Florida may be determined by anybody who reads a book that has just been is- sued. It is titled, The Everglades, or the River of Grass, and its author is Marjorie Stoneham Douglas, who has been familiar with the park area for many years. Part of a chapter from her book, which explains everything worth knowing about the park, is published in the Read- ers’ Digest for November. The book is most timely, and will go far toward bring- ing the .park into national prominence. No.other park in the world is like the Everglades National Park. That much- abused adjective “unique” may be applied appropriately to the park. ‘Fortunate is he who has the faculty of making money; unfortunate is he who- does not know how to make the best use of it. THE PRESS—HERE AND IN RUSSIA The enormous difference between the Russian and the American ideas of gov- ernment is perfectly illustrated by. the re- cent denunciations of our press by high Societ officials, and their demand that restrictive measures be taken to stop “un- fair” criticism of Russia, The Soviet spokesmen seem to be all in favor of a “free press’—so long as its comment agrees with their curious ideas of right and wrong. In Russia, the press is “free” to print government-inspired editorials and official hand-outs from the Politburo, the Foreign Office and the Kremlin. If the slightest deviation from the party line is found in a Russian news- Paper, the usual practice is to send the editor in charge on a long voyage from which there is no returning. The Russians may be perfectly sincere when they say they cannot understand American newspapers. This is one of very few nations left on the face of the earth where any editor, so long as he stays with- in the laws covering libel and other crimes, can say what he _ pleases. The Russians seem to think that the growing criticism of Soviet actions in our press is the result of orders from the govern- ment. Nothing, as every American knows, ‘could be further’ from the truth. It is, to the contrary, the simple consequence of the fact that the majority of editors be- lieve that the principles underlying U. S. foreign policy are correct and inevitable. The free press is the basis of all other freedoms. Destruction of the right to criti- cize, to speak one’s mind, must be follow- ed by the destruction of free government, free enterprise, freedom of religion. The Soviet press is used as a weapon to turn the Russian people into mental robots— and to make every man and woman slavishly think alike and repeat the same phases, The Russians don’t realize it, but their recent violent denunciations of the American press are a fine tribute to it— and to the system of government which makes its existence possible. anne nena VS? aero In contrast with the things that have gone up, the cost per thousand miles of the average first line automobile in 1909 was $10.00.

HELP THEM TO HELP THEMSELVES Former President Hoover was the first great American who, in 1947, recommend- ed to the American’ Nation: “Help Eu- rope to help, themselves.” That is the basic doctrine behind the Marshall Plan, and it is a safe and sound position.

This office is in very close touch with realtors on the Florida Keys, and the prices that they have listed on subdi- vision, lots, we feel, are very rea- sonable, and do not constitute any .“Toom-time Prices,” also that quite a bit of construction on the keys is good, modern and substantial and we feel that this type of construction is an asset to the Florida Keys.
