A Miami Herald correspondent said that as Senator Holland goes so goes the senate. Therefore, following that calcu. lation, Pepper votes as Holland votes, and should have equal credit. as THE ORACLE - - ADVICE VS. PRACTICAL POLITICS : President of the United States, in makifg some ‘awards to Members of Con- wress, urged members of the national legis- lative body to do what they think is right on the-basis of’ ‘the facts’ ‘available to them: ¢” This advice will be supported by the people of the United States but not every- dody..knows “the ceaseless pressures” Drought on Congressmen from every con- ceivabile source, demanding, in the words of Repesentative Robert L. Doughton, that Congressmen “do this and that.” It might be added, by way of paren- thesis, that the President of the nation has very often been among those bring- ing “éeaseless pressure” upon Members of Congress to support measures on the basis of the patronage that they might expect. While such tactics have been a factor in Polities for years and years, they do not dovetail with advice to the Members of Congress to do what they think is right. nee ema -WHAT IS BEHIND SOVIET RETREAT? ; —_—_— Just what purpose is behind the action of Soviet Russia, in lifting the Berlin blockade, nobody knows but, is now under- way by the Big Four nations to get together on some solution to the problems revolving ~— arated Germany. the blockade was instituted ri the western nations out of pe tag - ca failed to accomplish the purpose although it foreed the United States and Great pais, to establish a costly airlift in order to maintain their control over the ‘Western section of the German capital. There is some ground for the opinion that the termination of the blockadepas a eondition precedent to further negotia- tions between the Big Four, represents a “retreat” on the part of ‘Rusdd® ‘but it should-be observed that the Sqviet loses no territory and little of i er value in the Education; you do not beliey you to believe.

This applies to grown-ups, as well as to children, . tion for their failure to siyg THE TAXPAYER'S DOLLAR Benjamin Franklin, in an essay on tax- ation, said one is taxed for idleness, pro- crastination and a variety of other propen- sities. Nobody escaped entirely the kind of | AS TAKEN FROM FILES “taxation” about which he wrote. And. nobody egcapes.in the payment of genuine taxes. The Miami Herald publish- ed a story yesterday under the headline, | “You Can’t Spend a Dime Without a Tax.” As an announcer for a “commercial” over the radio says, “And can prove it.” jat’s true, and you ‘The Herald ettumerates many things on which taxes are paid without our knowing which takes hundreds of millions of dollars out of the Pockets of the people of the United it. That is hidden: taxation Other taxes'are known to us, such as the taxes on cigarettes, which, without tax- ation, would sell at 12 centsa pack. The other 13 cents now goes to the federal four gavernment, seven cents; the state, cents, and the city, two cents. You may or may not know that you pay taxes on a pair of shoes, but it is doubt- ful if you knew, when you bought your last pair of shoes, that you paid on them 502 different taxes. And so it goes with everything you buy. A loaf of bread is taxed 52 different times, and a new automobile, 122 times. If you drink liquor, you pay more in taxa- tion than it cost to produce the liquor. But necessities of life also feel the heavy hand of taxation, whether it be what you eat or what you wear. It is safe to say that, were the federal government and all its subdivisions con- ducted efficiently, with the elimination of as much waste as possible, as are private corporations, the country’s tax bill could be cut in half. But for some reason, on which one can’t put his finger, Americans in public life do not regard the taxpayer’s dollar with care and concernas they do their own dollar. A little fellow is the man with a job that he is afraid somebody else will get. SCHOLARSHIPS FOR COMMUNISTS? —— The United States Government is giv- ing certain scholarships to permit select- ed students to continye their studies in bpecific scientific fields at government expense. A scholarship, worth $1600, was re- cently given to a. Communist graduate student for advance ‘study in nuclear physics. When publicity was directed to the fact that the U.S. Government had given the scholarship to a Communist, the Atomic Energy Commission said that such awards wete made without a security checkup when no atomic secrets were in- volved. The recipient of the scholarship is a native of Austria, having joined the Com- munist Party a few years ago, after be- coming naturalized. How long he has been in this country, we do not know. At the same time, it appears to us that the Atomic Energy Commission, in dispensing its fellowships to deserving American stu- dents, might well have found a native American with the. ability to profit by advanced study in nuclear,physics. Certainly, if $4Q}Gqthmissidn — con- tinues to dispense its funds to scholars for advanced study, without making inquiry as to their origin and. philosophies, there is distinct danger that ‘some of the fruits of the Government-financed program will not inure to the benefit of the people of the United States. Americanism: People in the ountry trying to get into the cities, and, vice versa. PROFIT FROM THE BIBLE “Do you read the Bible?” This question, asked in a crowd, would produce interesting replies if the truth were told. There are some people in Key West who think themselves “superior,” because they place scant reliance updn’the book which is still the wor]d’s. best seller. They fancy an independent \aloofness but, in reality, there must be some other explana- the Word of God a trial on its merits. § | Any number of our best citizens can, and will, testify to the great influence this book has exerted upon their lives. They know that its study has brought them values, not equalled by any other publication. As a matter of selfish “profit,” basing their testimony ‘solely upon “re- turns,” they will utter thanksgiving for their Bible-reading habit. ‘ = (Key y West In Days Gone By Pf it is. the fil in the 2.
