THAT SHIP BONUS

Acting the moulhpiece of the present admin
istraton, President Harding proposes to Congress
the expenditure of more than $30,000,000 year
as a bonus to the United States mercantile marine.
This step of the most serious ever introduced
by any political party in our history. If adopted
1t will mean entering upon new program of dis
bursement, the end of which will never be in
sight. Behind the president is, CT course, the
United States Shipping Board, an organization
that has Gene into vast power and authority by
reason of the widespread influence it has created
in financial and business circles. The presidents
main plea for the adoption of such policy is that
by the building Up of strong mercantile feet,
that feet would act as a second line of defense in
time of trouble with any ether nation or group of
nations. 1t may be taken for granted that the
country as a whole will not be satisfied with this
reason, especially in view of the occurrences at the
recent conference on limitation of ornaments No
argument is necessary if the proposition is to be
considered from the stand point of taxation The
people are carrying a load now that has almost
reached the breaking point surely there are enough

tcna system, our highways, our railroads. our
mail system, our fisheries, our mines, our forests.

millions and then much more than that The
two schools of political thought. will come into
conflict On this issue One school will contend,
and rightly SO, that every enterprise ought to be
able, if worthy. to stand en- its own resources and
not depend on feeding at the public crib for its
sus;enance. On the other hand sentimental reas-
ems are advanced for ibis hand-out of public funds
to private corporations. The doubt may we'll be
expressed if the country is ready for the latter
policy. Let these millions be devoted to more
practical and urgent needs that will bring surer
and quicker reward in more prosperous and
more ccntented people.

MUCH YET TO BE DONE

Some one has asked he question, Why have
a county motor club2" The supposition is that
the qlesticner is convinced we have all the paved
highways necessary for cur salvation and that
further effort along this line is entirely unnecessary.
II is true that Polk county has an extensive system
OF county highways, most of it built from funds
raised and to be raised from the pocketbooks of
Polk county tax payers. But the end is not yet;
tic big goal has not yet been reached there is yet
much to be DONE The organization of branch

other activities well worth following up. Abuses

Tallahassee need not be unduly alarmed over

capital from the red clay hills of Leon" 1t is
just possible there may be majority of the people
of Florida agreeable to change of official resi-

the fact that will be next to impossible for the

QUALIFICATIONS OF VOTERS

The Highlands County Messenger published
at Sebring reminds its readers that two regstra-
tions will be required before would-be voters
can become qualified, the first registration for
the primary and the other for the general election
This is especially emphasized on behalf of women
voters who, since the last election, have been
granted the franchise. The ladies must also pay
their poll tax unless they have reached the age of
hfty-two years. And, come to think of it, the
primary is net such great way off June will be
here before we know it.

count of the promptitude it manifest
ed in responding to an early morning
CONFEDERATION on Main street this
week. The fire wagon is said to have
exceeded all previous records, even in
the memory of tn Oldest citizens, but
this might have been due to the fact
that it was hard pressed, close behind
by runaway team of mules.

terry to him how so many married wo-
men can come out in public looking
real nice and dressed up, when every
one of them will admit that they
haven't a thing on earth fit to wear.

THOSE CLEARING HEADLIGHTS
(FIorida Post.l

The testimony given in regard to the automo-
bile accident at Clearwater that the driver
blinded by the glaring headlights of big
car that was approaching from opposite direc-
ton.
Again in Daytona last Saturday night while
driving on the beach two young women were
killed and the driver painfully injured. The
driver testified that another big coming from
the north did not dim its lights and caused the
said driver to run upon an old wreck that lay
half buried on the beach.
In West Palm Beach one night about month
ago a driver of big car did not dim his spot
light and caused driver of small car to bump
into a telephone pole. The driver of the big car
tried to get away but not before the victim of
the wreck smashed the offending spot light with
a monkey wrench.
1t is the same way On the narrow brick pave
ments the drivers of the big cars will not dim
their lights unless they obliged to and neither
will they turn out for smaller cars There is
one class of cars that they will turn out for and
that is big oil trucks and the yellow busses.1
Not all big car drivers are bad, but there are
a certain class that need dsciplining by term in
Jail and that is what they are going to get one
of these days.

READING THE STARS

A New Jersey astrologer some time ago predict
ed that the early days Of March would bring bad
luck to the world This prediction was based on
the position of the stars, old Jupiter and the rnged
Saturn now being well up in the eastern sky in
the early evening. However that may be, there
has been about the same kind of weather in the
United States unless we call these summer days
unusual and the folks up in North Dakota and
Wyoming term twenty to thirty below zero just
little out of the ordinary for this time of year.
Then there has been the same round of gossip and
small talk with an admixture of scandal while the
public press has carried about the same amount of
crime stories without which the yellow press would
have most trying time making ends meet. In the
meantime Lakeland continues on her upward way
with all sails set and a determination ever fore
most to become one of South Florida's leading
cities.

What the Mardi Grass is to New Orleans the
Sun Dance will be to West Palm Beach. Many
cities in the olden days earned their greatest
distinction from the fact that they were the seat
of some world renowned festival Mard Gras is
celebrated in other cities besides New Orleans,
but the mere mention of this pre-lenten feast
Immediately suggests the name of New Orleans
and of New Orleans only. So some day shall
the name Sun Dance recall the name of West
Palm Beach to every nhabitant of the United
States 1t is true that the first carnival held in
the city at the mouth of the Father of Waters
dates back to 1927 and that it first began to as
sumo the modern form of a procession with
floats" as far back as 1887, but everything must
have a beginning, and the first annual pageant
dated back only from 1857 and they have been
continued in uninterrupted succession except dur
ing periods of the Civil war. Nor need our ardor
be dampened by the possibly correct reflection
that the New Orleans carnival owes its charm
to a victory of the Latin American over the An
glo-American tastes and that their pretentious
dignity is due to the American" and their friv-
olity to the Creole" Barring a slight difference
in age which to the modern iconoclast will ap-
pear to be in favor of the newer city Of the

Beach is at least proptious to carnivalholding

time and especially during the season. our streets
bear witness to the one quality, and the same

age alone it furnishes distinctly tropical set
