Both the Jacksonville Times-Union
and Tampa Tribune have recently
published lengthy editorials relating
to advertising signs along the road.
It has long been a mooted question
as to their relative value compared
with other forms of advertising, but
we trust the crusade started by these
pawerful organs won't reach such pro-
portion as to procure their abolish
ment until such time as we are fav-
ored with better roads in Hardee coun-
ty, for the reason they help to enter
tain and while away the time as we
"plod along our weary homeward
way."-Wauchula Advocate.

All Eyes on Washington

= GOVERNMENTAL effort. 50 far as it is
NJ related to- the coal miners strike is
now being directed toward the problems of
distribution and cost. In other words the
purpose OF the administration just now is
to make the best out of an extremely bad
situation. Tentative plans announced after
Yesterdays series OF conferences warrant
the hope that at least. the tragically in
adequate supply OF coal will be distributed
adVantaeeously, and that consumers viii
not be lief, altogether at the mercy of the
industry. Though lacking direct means OF
holding the price within conscionablc
bounds, the government clearly viii be able
to exercise substantial control by It's pros
pecuve grip upon the allotment Of cars.
Mines that attempt 10 defy the price regu-
" lattons will make themselves subject TO re-
,strictions OF highly embarrassing nature
There can be no question Of the govern
ments ability TO direct distribution SO rhai
industry and human welfare Will be served

Senate. In presenting his hill Senator Laid
asked the Senate the pointed question if
me farmers should continue To pay more
than S3,oOo,O00 annually for Chilean
nitraies when MIR. Ford offers 10 relieve
them OF these burdens"
The dominant thought with Senate mem
beers OF tho committee who voted fayorablv
on the acceptance OF Mr.. Fords offer. and
OF others who are known 10 favor il seems
10 be that il would Nsult in the deyelop-
nent of a plant that would produce at
minimum cost not only an enormous amount
OF hydro-clectric power, but also great guam
titles OF commercial fertilizer at a cost SO
low that ii would free the farmers of The
United States from the grip of tho fertilizer
trust. In reaching that conclusion Senators
who favor the proposition fail To difieren-
Gate between an offer and promise MIR
toid docs not agree 10 make fertilizer dur
ing the period OF his proposed lease unless
ne can make ii with profit to himself Even
then he does not agree TO make any speci-
heu amount. Engineering investigation Of
the plants has revealed that the maximum
production OF nitrogen possible would be
$500 tons annually and that only under
the best possible conditions
That amount OF nitrogen production
would not be a drop in the bucket to the
needs OF agriculture. on the other hand
ne proposition involves giving TO Ford for
