STATE AND UNITED STATES
FAVOR STATE ROAD NO. 5
Concluded from first page)

Commissioners of Charlotte county
had passed a resolution for an elec.
ton to bond for 100000 for road
work and that in his opinion the
! bonds would be voted and work start
ed on State Road No. in Charlotte
county in sixty days after the cleo
tion. ''Punta Gorda wants to see
this road built and she will do her
part to get it," he said. He said the
road would be IL to Is feet wide of
rock base and mari surface.
Mr.. Sheppard asked questions re-
Sarding State Road No. 2 as did c.
p. Staley and it was through these
questions that the attitude of the
State Road Department regarding the
proposed abandonment of this high
way upon which about 100000 has
been expended up to this time was
brought out.
Mr. Green in answer to questions
fdeclared that he did not know how
long the "a convicts now at work on
State Road No. will stay on this
job. There is no money available
to hard surface State Road No. 2.
either by contract or by means of
convict labor" said Mr.. Green.
Mr.. Staley stated that he invited
Mr.. Green to come to Fort Myers to
find out from him if the convicts were
to be moved off Road No. . as had
been rumored repeatedly of late. He
declared that Lee county had never
got one penny from the State Road
Department. I'VE now have won
derful grade on No. ? and if we can
keep the convicts at work there we
will have a good road before long
he said.
1t is not possible for me to give
information that have not got"
said Mr.. Green. Il don't know
whether the convicts will be moved
or not, or if they are to be moved
off Road No. when they will be
moved. | don't know what the state
Departments policy will be after the
grading is done"
Mr.. Green motored here from Bra
dentOwn via Punta Gorda and Tuck
er's Corner yesterday with F. Emery
Sharp, real estate man of Braden-
town. and C. w. Hunter of Ocala,
member of the last Legislature and
author of the present state revenue
bill of which the gasoline tax law
is provision, and j. C. Baush of
Annapolis, Md, who is visiting in
Bradentown. He was entertained
at dinnr at the Bradford yesterday
evening by the County Commission
ers. He and his companions anG
Captain Johnson of Punta Gorda, left
here at I O'Clock this morning to los
state Road No. to Punta Gorda.

dearth of turnip greens in this
market, with characteristic thought
fulness and generosity sent to The
Herald box full of the desired veg

big dinner for each of three families.
Not only this, but every one who en-
joyed the gift said the greens" tast-

eaten. Illustrating the old adage,

COMPTROLLER DID NOT MAKE
THE LAW.

Frequently cases arise working appar-
ent hardship upon certain owners of
motor vehicles, but these cannot be reme-
died by the comptroller and it should be
kept in mind that he did not frame the
law. The attorney general in advising
the comptroller recently as to the con-
struction necessary to place upon that
portion of the law relating to cars for
hire, said: II fully realize that no pro-
visions having been made by the legisla-
ture for certain contingencies which
might arise and for conditions which do
arise. that the enforcement of the law as
it stands works hardships on a great
many people for which you as an officer,
charged with the duty of enforcing the
law, are not responsible and they should
not expect you to either violate your oath
of office by the non-enforcement or by
suspending the operation of the law
where it appears that amendmel-,s IS would
be advisable. These are onditions which
the people must remedy through the
action of their representatives in the leg
islature."

HANDLING OF CASE OF
DISABLED SOLDIERS Is
A NATIONAL DISGRACE.

Many who read this would have

or been permanently crippled,
had it not been for the American
soldiers now known as disabled
veterans.
They stopped the enemy and
his bullets. That shortened the
war-ended it before more Of the
folks back home were drawn into
the casualty lists.

through the war uninjurcd are en-
/ joying peace. But the war goes
on forever for the disabled sol

And it is a battle that he is
fighting largely alone
More than three years have
passed since the Armistice. The
disabled war veterans. far from
enjoying the comforts that are
rightly theirs by all laws of de-
cency. again are compelled to
fight for fair. square treatment by
the national government.
The details Of this fight are be
ing told in the news columns oil
the Daily News
The situation discloses gross
neglect and an almost criminal
stupidity in mishandling the dis
abled soldiers.
1t is becoming an old story
And it is Swallowed by talk o
national ingratitude.
There is, however. 70 ingra..

After all Is said and done, the

The adoption Of the new city
charter fos Daytona- at the cleo
ton yesterday. which will place at
the head of local government a
city manager under commission
Of seven business men. is one of
the most notable victories for this
form of government. which Is fast
spreading over the country. and
psesaees an earnest endeavor on
the part Of electors of Daytona to
bring about a business admins
tration OF the highest order. in
keeping with the pTogressiveness
shown in other civic lines the past
year.
The overwhelming vote in ia
vor Of the adoption Of the new
chatter. while not a surprise to
. majority Of electors. was never
theless pleasing to those who have
waged strenuous fight for bet
ter form Of city government fol
many years. The Daily News
may perhaps be excused for feel
ipg Of exceptional qualification
since this newspaper has carried
ON the fight for city managerial
form Of government for the pas
ten years. in the face of strenuous
objection. both at the time Of al
dermanic form and commission
form. when it believed that Day
tona was ready for city manage
form. and that it would offer thi
city the best means of impartial
fair and economical municipal
government.
The News maintained. in tn.
face of ridicule from some source,
that the charter would be adopt
ed by about 4 to majority. Tn.
vote stood 40 for and l2(
against. almost reaching this pre-
diction.
The ease with which the char
ter was adopted, however. doe.
net lessen the civic responsible,
Of electors. both men and women
who have worked for its passage
The choice of men and womer
who will compose the commits
sion will have large bearing or

ter. No let-down in efforts t
bring to this board the best tai
