CATS ISN'T CONSISTENT

Editor Star: / was in to hear Sid
ney j. Cats speak Friday night. Mr..
Cats says he is going to bring about
an equalization of taxes, certainly !.
very commendable ambition. Mr..
Cats cites the rate at which the rail-
roads are assessed, but does not men,
tion the many thousands of cattle that
escape taxation in this state. Maybe
Mr.. Cats would lose some of his en-
thusiastic. supporters if he was so
impolitic, for there is one thing that
is sure about Mr.. Cats, he is a very
shrewd politician. But to tell you the
truth, don't think Mr.. Cats is con-
sistent. / heard him speak before the
primary. His speech reminded me of
a page from the Menace. But what a
difference Friday night! Mr.. Cats has
gained an element of voters, now he
is out after the other It serves to
be popular with Mr.. Cats and his fol-
lowers to make puns on his name,
some of them particularly vulgar. He
assures US that the people of Florida
will have no cause to be ashamed of
him four years hence. Don't you think
a good start could be made now by
showing more respect for his pro,
fession, and the high Office to which
he aspires, by treating his name with
common decency? AS / said, / heard
Mr.. Cats speak before the primary
and he reminded be of a page from
the Menace or the Yellow Jacket, but
now he tells US he is complimented
and endorsed by a prominent Roman
Catholic cleric-and he seemed to be
proud of it. Now, who is being fool
ed. Yours truly,
Martel, Aug. 21. A. Cuthill.

PRESIDENT APPEALED TO THEIR
PATRIOTISM

President Wilson yesterday after
noon appealed to each of the ex-
ecutives of the country's principal
railroads on the grounds of patriot
ism to accept his plan for averting
the threatening disaster of a nation
wide strike.
The president emphasized the nee
essity for keeping the railroads in
service for national defense and to
make possible the preparation for
meeting the conditions that will exist
after the European war.
On leaving the White House the
railroad presidents held a conference
at which sentiment is said to have
been against the presidents proposal
in its present form.
Hope was expressed, however, that
some satisfactory counter PROPOSE
ton might be advanced. The task OF
drafting a finally reply to the presi-
dent was turned over to committee.

ADMINISTRATION is HOPEFUL

While the utterance of the railroad
executives had shown them opposed to
the presidents proposal that they

Gated with their boards of directors,
the conclusion was drawn that their
action concerned the concession for
