80. 400 or $4,000 a year," Near
ly all of the towns and cities that
have adopted the city manager plan
were swamped in debt when they
made the change, and in most cases
this was just the reason that led them
to make it. If everything had been
going along swimmingly there would
have been no need or demand for a
change. but when things went from
bad to worse, when things became
hopelessly muddled and debt piled
up, they turned TO the commission
manager plan to pull them out, and
without any known exception it has
brought order out of chaos and put
the balance on the right side of the
ledger. There is every reason TO be
lieve the commission-manag plan
will do as much for Punta Gorda as
it has done for every other town and
city that has adopted it. There is
one thing sure, az least, if the change
doesn't help matters ii certainly
can't make them worse-and there's
considerable consolation in that fact
as we prepare to make the change.

Increased Efficiency.

This months survey of economic
conditions by the Federal reserve
board lays emphasis on the increas-
ed efficiency of labor. Similar re-
ports are made by officials of the
United States Chamber of Commerce
and reviews of leading mercantile
agencies. At the same time execu-
tives of the leading railroads are
making strenuous efforts to move
each freight car an average of so
miles per day as against az average
OF about q miles during last year,
and they are meeting with remark
able success.
During this period of readjust-
ment, with the peak of prices ap-
parently passed and the trend of the
cost of living downward, special
significance attaches to these many
evidences of greater efficiency. Fol-
lowing the armistice there was an ad-
mitted tendency on the part of
great many in all walks of life to get
the greatest possible return for SER
vices rendered regardless of the
value of work dore. That this was
one of the causes of excessive prices
no one denies.
1t would have been an economic
impossbility for this condition to
have continued indefinitely. For a
time a nation may consume more
than it produces, but ultimately by
the unalterable law of economics il
becomes necessary to produce an
amo6nt of goods equivalent to, the
pay or profits people receive. That
nearly everyone is recognizing this
axiom is one of our most he2lthful
signs.-Cleye,and Plain Dealer.

Keep Religion Out of Politics

News from Palatka recently pub
lished suggests that the republican
national party is planning to employ
religious prejudiCes in an attempt to
break the solid front that the state
has always held for democracy 1t
is mentioned that the argument of
Protestant against Catholic, used
with such unfortunate results four
years ago, is to be revived and strong
Ipfforts will be made to get UP a scare
concerning the policies of the demo
cratic presidential candidate The
report says that it will be spread
about that Cox has Roman Catholic
wife and is more or less under the
domination of that religious organi-
cation, although it is matter of rec
ord and very well known that Gov.
Cox is a member of Protestant or
ganization, and no word has ever
been uttered against him on the
ground of religious favor or prefer
ence during his somewhat extended
political career. With some people,
however, facts are not required when
a sensational story is told, and unless
some pains are taken by those who
are interested in maintaining the sta
bility and progress of the state TO
forestall and contradict such rumors
as are to be circulated regarding Gov
Cox it is quite possible that the re-
publicanS may win votes in the state
The traditions and precepts of the
/ United States are broadly shown to
oppose any union of church and state
and they are just as strongly oppos-
ed to religious intolerance, or bigotry.
1t would seem a contemplate bit
of politics to undertake the stirring
up of religious prejudices in Florida,
and yet the men anxious to secure
federal Offices, should a republican
administration follow, would evident
ly stoop to any trick. This year the
republicans are understood to plan
story for Florida democrats that will
be as ridiculous and unworthy of ac-
ceptance as the first-but the people
who heard the first are now fairly
wise, and not to be caught again by
such mischief The president of the
United States has never made a diff
ference in any act on account of the
religious utilization of those affected;
no president of the United States
ever will.-Times-Un

The population Of Fort Myers, ac-
cording to the 1920 census, has been
announced, and the people of that
city, like those of 80 of every 100
other towns and cities, are dissatis-
fed with the count. A. p. Jordan.
supervisor of TIE census for this dis
trict, says that one whole year after
he urgently begged the Fort Myers
people to help him get full and cor
rect census of their city, they appear
to be taking steps to comply with
his request, but it is now too late.
A year ago, he says, he addressed
letters on the subject to the clerk Of
the circuit court Ct Lee county, the
tax assessor of the county, and the
secretary of the Fort Myers Board of
Trade. but not one answer did he get.
He obtained some necessary informal
.tion from StanltJ Hanson, when the
latter was visiting Punta Gorda, and
ito whom the supervisor complained
.of the epistolary discOuteGy shown
him by the Fort Myers people.

About two weeks ago, for about
the one thous2ndth time, we called
attention to the fact that the Herald
does not publish unsigned communi-
cations, and we again call attention
to this fact. This week We received
an unsigned notice of church services
at Cleveland. We would have been
glad to give space to this notice had
il been sent in the regular and pro-
per manner with the authors name
Names are never used unless we are
requested to use them, but in order
ito get any communication published
in the Herald, no matter what its
mature may be, it is necessary for the
Iauthor to sign his or her name. If
an item of news or other communi-
cation is sent in good faith there is
70 reason for the author not signing
lit, and the fact that it is not signed
is evidence that it is sent with an
Interior motive.

Citizens will note with satisfaction
the announced policy OF the Town
Council TO pu; the city pier in good
condition and 10 make the repairs of
la permanent character in future.
Some uneasiness has been felt re-
garding the councils attitude to-
ward the pier. some expressing the
fear that the pier was TO be allowed
to deteriorate until it would have to
be abandoned or rebuilt. and ii SEEM
ed a practical certainty that it would
be many years before It could be re-
built. If the councils present policy
is adhered to the pier will soon be in
first class condition and the cost of
maintenance will amount to but a
fraction of the present cost.

One reason why stock feeds are so
high in Florida is because there are
too many farmers who depend on
buying feed instead of raising it.
In other words, much of our feed is
shipped into the state. On top of
what the farmer got for it at the
other end we must pay transportation
charges and two or three profits for
the handling of it. Of course, feed
is high in sympathy with all other
high prices. Another reason that
feed is high is because there are too
many people in towns end cities and
too few in the country. In other
words, production is not keeping pace
with consumption Tampa Times.
