Asa matter of fact theyrepresent nothing but the half-baked Gnclusion of a man without much opti- ism and, we suspect, little faith. 2 The argument is advanced that this piritual bankruptey” isito be seen in « failure of millions of people to belong any “organized religion,” which means church. , { y a ‘The crities of humanity. in. genePal do ot imagine that it might be possible for 1 churehes to improve their service to ankind and thus gain greater support. hey calmly assume. that the churches TBre above reproof and that\any individual 2. falls to support avchufch organization heund for hell-fire. , = The Key West Citizen’ certainly be- Tioves in organized religion and readily advises its readers to join-and support the ehuatch of their choice. ‘At the same time, w@Donot condemn, | off-hand, every man ‘ an@fwoman who, for reasons of their own, faff%o follow our advice.

'® emphasis is to be placed upon com- neni y recognition of the inventor’s great com@ributions to human betterment, and ikmanner of civic and service organiza- | diiwill play'a leading part. = The achievements of Edison are too wll known to need repeating. Foremost among them were his successful experi- ments in the science of electricity, which pemyided the groundwork on which the whole vast power industry was built, and which have revelutionized the living and werking habits of the American people. Pdison Day thus becomes a tribute to one {the greatest public benefactors the warld has ever known. But there is more to it than this. Edi- » Day must be seenasa celebration of the greatest force for progress that exists the freedom of the individual to ex- plore, to ereate, to fail and to succeed, all without coereion or dominaticn by gov- ernment. Can anyone believe that the elec- ~. Juvenile delinquency almost always can be traced to the lack of proper train- ing in the home. When Key West had its wave of juvenile delinquency three or four years ago, with its “swamp gang” and other units with similar designations, an investigation showed that, with a few ex- ceptions, the boys had been permitted to do much as they pleased. Richard A. Chappell, federal chief of probation in the United States courts, said F-ropays BIRTHDA\ By AP New: SON, : Louisa, Ky., son of the Tocal er. boarders “fact that fathers are back from. the war and fewer mothers are working.” Adults should not judge the mentality of a boy by their own standards. Normal boys don’t think like normal men, and if the boys are free from the checks that should be exercised in their homelife over their impulses to do wrong, they expand their delinquency until it becomes so glar- ing they are arrested and taken before juvenile judges. And what applies to boys applies also to girls. However, in the complexity of modern life, all the blame for straying boys and girls should not be placed on their parents. As The Citizen remarked recently, so-call- ed comic magazines had been found to be the reason for juvenile delinquency in its worst form. On several occasions boys in- jured other boys or killed them because they had seen comics where similar acts of violence had been committed. But clamps throughout the country have been screwed down so tightly on the “comics,” they have toned down their strips or pages of what is termed adven- ture. With public sentiment roused against those magazines. juvenile delinquency should show further decreases, and will show them, if parents supervvise more the pursuits followed by their children. The cult of equality has not as, yet spread to incomes and positions but, give it time, it will. te in Fred M.

In his will, he explained that the Govern- ment had been “good” to him, that what he possessed came from the Government and that, after funeral expenses and other obligations had been met, what he had left should go back to the Government. In connection with the thinking that motivated this World War veteran to. re- turn to the Federal Government some of the benefits he had received, we call at- tention to the fact that there is no law, legal or moral, which prevents a citizen of a country from attempting to do some- thing for his country.
