Press Comment
Atlanta Sets an Example.

There Is some satisfaction in know
ing that St. Augustine is not the only
city where trouble is experienced with
the automobile speed fiend. In fact
this city has shown marked improve
ment in auto regulation, although there
are those who claim there is yet room
for further auto control. But UP in
Atlanta they have had such serious
time that it has been found necessary
to organize a sort of posse of so citi-
zens to act as volunteer policemen
whose duty 1t is to see TO 1t that the
traffic regulation laws are observed.
Press dispatches state that the deciS
sion to enlist the aid of business men
in enforcing the traffic ordinances of
Atlanta followed three fatal automo-
bile accidents within three days and
the further revelation that there has
been at least one casualty per week
for the nine months of 1920. Atlanta
thought it was time to act and since 1t
was impossible to afford the luxury of
an army of policemen. public spirited
citizens have taken the situation in
hand.-St. Augustine Record.

"REMINISCENCES.

The washington and Lee University
bulletin some months ago discussed
school days and studies in most IN
teresting way. Studies were compared
TO the grindstones which the carpea-
ter uses to sharpen his tools before
attempting to do good work at his
trade. Hard studies in school days
were likened TO these grindstones and
the bulletin said:
When the harsh grit of a revolving
stone begins to put an edge on a steel
axe. it might if ignorant and inexperi-
.eneed. cry out against the hardness
and harsnness of the stone. and beg
10 have it covered with velvet and
thus made smooth and pleasant.
How would you answer ssch olea?
"You foolish axei Canton flannel and
velvet win never put an edge on tool
steel. A grindstone must be hard and
gritty or it's of no use. II you stop
the scratching and grinding. you stop

SO with your studies. Soft, easy,
velvet studies will never put cutting
edge on your adful of dull tools. The
harder your lesson is, and the hard

and the more swiftly and diligently

cess, the more rapidly and perfectly

The Tin Can Tourist.


One of the most interesting and
charming features of winter life in
Florida is the tin can tourists.
They come from all parts of the
north. They include farmers, bust
eness men, an occasional professional
man, with their families and friends
who. care little for high society, but
come here for rest, regeneration, mild
amusement. and to escape the rigors
of the winter climate.
They rent light housekeeping
rooms do their own shopping, COOK
their own meals, and look out for their
own comforts. For the time being
they take a keen interest in what is
going on about them. Sometimes they
are tempted to make invidious COM
parsons, bat that is always done IN a
helpful spirit. They patronize the mo-
vies the stores, the garages, and spend
their money carefully, but not mig
gardly. Often they secure temporary
employment and become a valuable
factor In the industries of the state.
The front aosch is their social CEN
ter. There they gather of evenings;
the family from Indiana gets acquant-
retired barber from Cleveland makes
friends with the retired farmer from
Illinois; people from many states and
many conditions of life meet on terms
of the most intimate equality, ex-
change experiences, widen their knowI-
edge OF life, and form lifelong at
tachments.
The porch is an open forum for all
manner of vital questions. Politics and
political leaders are dissected without
mercy. All the defects of the govern
ment are tabulated and the remedy
presented. Somebody is always present
who knows the big league baseball
players by sight. Somebody else has
shaken hands with Dempsey and given
him pointers about his punch. Every
subject is in order. and everybody has
the floor.
1t is period of keen enjoyment for

Low Prices.

Low Prices.
1t has been tried before:
Other years farmers have seen the
buying power bear down prices just
when the food producers is upon the
threshold of the market. And as Of
ten he has seen those same buyers
boost prices Immediately after get
ting their hands upon the food, wheat,
meat, getables-whatever the farmer
has sold.
The result always was hard times
on farms.
Hard times there means less buying
power for millions of Americans
Lack of farm buying means fewer
city goods sold to rural customers
This in turn, makes for unemployment
in cities.
The city consumer does not benefit
by these annual harvest price drops.
The retailer is not buying directly
from the producer. He is buying from
the middleman, who by the way, is the
only man getting profit out of the
autumn price manipulation.
But the loss in rural buying power
does affect the city man. 1t throws
many city workers OF of jobs.
Only a few reap the profit-those
who depress prices to buy and increas Sc
them to SELL
The many reap the losses-the pro-
ducers in field and factory.
And this woefu1 weakness in the
marketing system has been revealed
year after year.-Daytona News.

Hold Your Cotton.

Hold Your Cotton.
Hold your cotton for sixty days. at
least" is the advice given the cotton
growers by State Commissioner of Ag-
riculture Algood, of Alabama. He
points out that drop from forty cents
per pound to twenty cents per pound
for cotton during the past four months
is entirely unwarranted by conditions,
and is undoubtedly the work Of spec
ulators, who are taking advantage of
the present money conditions to gouge
the cotton growers out of their hard
earned crop. That cotton cost thirty
four cents per pound to produce, is es-
tablished by missionaries, sent out
broadcast over the State of Alabama,
and this cost may be taken as the gen
eral average for the production of cot
ton In other states. From investiga-
lions that have been made it is appar-
ent that the mills have enough cotton
to carry them only sixty days, after
which time they will of necessity have
to go onto the markets for their raw
materials. This being true. it is point
ed out that there would be a mad
scramble for cotton at reasonable
prices, should the cotton farmers hold
their productions off the market for a
couple of months. With cotton costing
ing thirty-four cents to produce,
farmers of course cannot sell 1t a fig
ure under that price and continue to
grow cotton, so in any event, cotton
that is held over must bring higher
price than now offered, as there is no
reasonable grounds for believing that
the farmers will continue raising cot
ton to sell to the spectators at a
loss.-Milton Gazette.

ARTICLE K AND THE RESERVATION

Since there is much discussion of the league of nations and especially Article X, so seriously objected to by the senate, give it in full also the amendment or reservation proposed by the senate Read both and judge for yourself wheth- CT or not Article X does not commit the United States to all European wars that may come:
 COvenant-Article X-The members of the league undertake to respect and preserve as against external aggression the territorial integS rity and existing political independence of all members of the league. In case of any such ag- gression or in case of any threat or danger of such aggression the council shall advise upon the means by which this obligation shall be fulfilled
 Any war or threat of war, whether immedi- ately affecting any of the members of the league or not, is hereby declared matter of concern to the whole league, and the league shall take any action that may be deemed wise and effectual to safeguard the peace of nations. In case any such emergency should arise the secretary general shall on the request of any member of the league forthwith summon meeting of the council.
 It is also declared to be the friendly right of each member of the league to bring to the atten- tion of the assembly or of the council any cir constance whatever affecting international re- lations which threatens to disturb international peace or the good understanding between nations upon which peace depends
 (The above is approved without reservation by Woodrow Wilson and Governor Cox, who is supporting the Wilson league just as it stands)
 Reservations-(2 The United States as- sumes no obligation to preserve the territorial integrity or political independence of any other country by the employment of its military or na- val forces it's resources, or any form of economic discrimination ,or to interfere in any way in con- troversies between nations, including all contro- veres relating to territorial integrity political independence, whether members of the league or not, under the provisions of article 10, or to em- ploy the military or naval forces of the United States, under any article of the treaty for any purpose unless in any particlar case the congress which, under the constitution, has the sole power to declare war or authorize the employment of the military or naval forces of the United States, shall, in the exercise Of full liberty of action by act or joint resolution so provide.
 (The above are the reservations to this para graph Americanizing the league adopted by the senate and favored by Senator Harding)

HISTORIES GREATEST WASTE

The World war cost the United States $20,- 900 00O, ,00O. besides the $10,0O0 000, ,O00 loaned to the allies That is $2O0 plus $10O for every man, woman and child in the United States.
 England mobilized 7,500,000 men to our A. 100000; France, 7,5O0,OOO, and Italy 5,5OO,OO0 Each of the three nations was in the war much longer than the United States.
 Our average daily expenditure for each man under arms was four times that of England, six times that of France, and nearly ten times that of Italy, This, even though, through two years of watching, we knew of the allies mistakes.
 Why these colossal differences? The Ameri- can people have right to know. They should know. Officials of this administration, which poured forth this deluge of other peoples money, are now calling on the nation tO> approve their conduct at the polls next November.
 One reason stands out in lurfd light. It IS this The production of war munitions was so mismanaged in the United States that supplies were not available for our troops. We were forced to buy equipment from our allies, thus duplicating expense
 We tried to build, all told, 10000 pieces of ar- tillery and to provide for them ammunition, at cost of $3,0O0, ,00O, 900. We produced nothing that got into the fight except few 75-milli- meter shells and 72 guns, which appear to have been a part of pre-war production
 We ordered $21 100000 worth of ambulance harness and then found that our ambulances were motorized.
 We paid to construct army training camps S1,2OO, 100000. Of this, there was easily wasted 40 per cent, or $48O, 100000.
 When in August, 1918, General Pershing gave the order to attack, our army had no tanks. On August 30, 1918, two battalions of French tanks came to help our army, but they were grossly inadequate. How many American graves in the Meuse-Argonne forest are there because the American army had no tanks to aid in the fight? Who knows?
 If given complete. the record of democracy in the World war would stagger the imagination and dumbfound the understanding. There is nothing like it in government since government began :.
 Yet in face of this record, the democratic party has the embalmed impotence to call upon the nation to retain it in power and to enable it, under the mere alias of Cox and Roosevelt, to perpetuate, as far as in it lies, the devastating policies and practices of Woodrow Wilson's ad- ministration.

!. The kids game of baseball has grown to be the old mans game as we'll and there are some fifty millions of people in America who are mighty indignant that bunch of crooks should endeavor to bring the ball game to the level of the old horse racing game, where the biggest crook got the most money. The names of the eight crooked ball players of the Chicago club will go down in history more reviled than that of Benedict Arnold. Men may murder, rob and burn, but they can not tamper with the great national game with inpunity.

Gompers has come out strong for Cox, says a democratic paper. We'll, that's nothing new. Gompers came out strong for the democratic party soon after he landed in this country from England and has stood pat along that line ever since, so there is nothing strange or exciting about it at this time. It is also understood that Tammany is still leaning toward the democratic party-this will be more good bolstering news for the weakening demos.
