nothing TO this term, yet it must be confessed that
the implication is that the nations are to measure
just how much armament it is safe to carry rather
than to determine if it will not be possible to dis
arm to the point of nothing more than ordinary
world police protection.
America is being aroused TO the necessity of
throwing off the yoke of the arms and ammunition
makers if we are ever to get out OF debt and resume
normal business conditions. If the greater portion
of our resources are 10 go to paying for old wars
and for providing the materials for new ones, the
situation is indeed hopeless. America has the OPP
portunty to lead the way toward real peace.
Judging from the comments of the French, Italian,
British and Belgian press, those nations are even
more eager than we to accomplish disarmament
If this be true, it ought not to be difficult matter
10 bring about the much desired triumph.

HOW WE LIVE
cocoa Tribune.l

Cocoa Tribune)
Time after time hear from folks who
making their first visit to Florida, Yes, il is
lovely here, but / don't see how people make a
living" and time after time we tell them that
there are various enterprises in state of
which they know nothing. More things in
heaven and earth, Horatio, than thou hast
dreamed of in thy philosophy" They all know
we have those famous crops of citrus fruits and
tourists, but many of them do not know how eX-
tensive is mining industry, what mammoth
tobacco crops grown in the state, what eX
cellent fields are made, what enormous
lumber business is found here, what quantities
of fish shipped from the state, and what great
proportions our truck farming has attained.
All these things, and many more here, and
easily be proven if these questioning visitors
will take the trouble to look for them but why
hunt them up, when everywhere are indications
of happy and prosperous life being enjoyed?
Should it not be enough for these visitors of ours
to see that we are living the most contented
life that can be found anywhere in the country?
Less poverty is to be found here than among
the same number of people anywhere, and where
poverty is found it is due to one of two things,
either to sickness which prevents family from
doing a normal amount of work, to genuine
shiftlessness and lack of ambition.
Florida is not land where man can sit Idle
and grow rich, but it is a land where any man
make a comfortable living if he will make
the effort, and that the great majority of its peo
pie is making that effort is best indicated by the
fact that while other parts of the country
suffering a business depression, Florida is en-
joying good 1pancia prosperity, and when the
business world has reached a stable and normal
condition, Florida will be in a better position to
make forward strides than any other of the
states.

hold that Amos Akenside is all pure wool and
three feet wide I've dealt with him for many
moons and got the worth of my doubloons. He's
sold me milk and melted ice, and always at de-
cent price. Men say that Amos must be watched;
his moral character is botched and II he gets
chance, they say he'll bring his: harpoon into
play. My neighbors sometimes say, "Gadzooks,
why patronze that prince of crooks?" Perhaps
the truth has not been told; who knows what
grudges they may hold against this Amos Aiken
side, who sells fresh henfruit, plain or fried?
Perhaps their hatred is bestowed because he
asked for what they owed; for many peoples
heads get sore when they lose credit at the
store. Perhaps they hate this Amos jay because
he doesn't vote their way score of reasons
might be found why they rear up when he's
around, but while old Amos treats me right |

say about gent does not impress me worth a

REGULATING RENTS

Tenant associations in many parts of the coun-
try are agitating for laws to regulate rents. In
some places, notably in New York city. they have
secured such laws, and the courts have passed on
them Before pressing for decision elsewhere.
it would be well 10 study the operation Of the plan
in that city.
The courts there have decided that fair rental
is ten per cent Of the market value of the property
To any one who understands the basis of real
estate value-namey, that it is merely captali-
cation of rental value-such decision sounds like
a mockery. 1t is. 1t does not, and can not, in
any but exceptional cases, protect the tenant to
any extent whatever because the value of the
property will naturally be just ten times the
amount Ct the annual rent. no matter what,that is.
The law Of supply and demand always has
regulated rentals in general, and, in the long
run, sufficient, way. Sometimes it operates against
the tenant when there happens to be scarcity of
houses Then. as building goes ahead under the
impulse of high rents, it swings around and OPP
crates 10 the advantage of the tenant Many
expensive building has failed to yield revenues, and
the owner has been glad to lease it for sufficient
10 pay the taxes In many towns and cities where
some temporary setback has reduced population,
houses have stood empty and tenants have been
welcomed at figures representing not two per cent
CT what would be the value of the property under
normal conditions
These things will all happen again. Besides,
with the improved system of transportation tenants
in most places are almost independent of landlords.
They can dwell far out in the suburbs. They
can live in automobile houses, households or tents
They can, and do, in many cases, avoid all rents
by providing their own living quarters and the
tendency in that direction is increasing by leaps
and bounds
The best way to treat the rental problem is to
let it alone. If rents get too high the greed of
hc landlords will prompt them to multiply build
mgs, and this will bring rents down tic, or more
likely below, the normal basis To get the law
mixed up with the problem might result in making
landlordism legalizcd monopoly.

Defend not one defect that shames

HOME BREW
(From the Pioneer.)


The interview given out by Police Commits
sioner Enright, of New York City to the At.
lantc City Gazette-Review and published on May
15 was in part follows: THE home brew,
which we hear so much about right now, will
be obsolete. Many who are brewing and
distilling in their own homes are doing so because
it is fad but they will soon stop it-when the
realization comes to them that the real test of
patriotism is obedience to laws, whatever they
may be. 1t will not be long until every law
abiding American will be scrupulous in his
observance of the prohibition law he is OF 9TH
er laws. He will think of making buy
ing, selling liquor than he does of stealing
his neighbours money numbering his wife out
of a spirit of covetousness. Those who are try
ing to cajoe congress into liberazing the pres
ent prohibition law so to permit the manufac-
ture of beer and light wines, wasting their
effort 1t will be done. Public sentiment
will not stand for it. The vote of the women
yes, and the men, too, would completely over
whelm any effort toward legazing the manu-
facture or sale of alcoholic beverages"
