management under private ownership
made by Mr.. Cooke is that the big
private monopolies actually do not
know how much it costs them to pro-
duce and distribute a unit of cleo
trical energy to the consumers. They
don't know because they don't want
to know. The facts would reveal the
reason for their inordinate profits and
raise a clamor for reduced rates.
1.-The estimate of 100000, O0O,-
possibly 100000, 900 annual over
charge on distribution seems justified
and conservative" declares Mr.. Cooke.
1.-The figures are well within the
facts" Mr.. Cooke is right. Less con-
sentative estimatOrs have placed the
loot at a billion. and if all the facts
were known they probably would be
more nearly correct. The shocking
sive rates have so long gone unchal-
lenged. With all this furore about
government economy" one would
think that the movement would be
carried over to utility charges, and a
demand made for their reduction.
But no, utility rates charged by the
big power interests are sacred to the
economy howlers. And the state reg
ulatory bodies whose normal duty
would be to adjust rates to a sensible
level are so used to being rubber
stamps for the utilities that they dare
not act. Only few, such as our own
Public Service commission, have faced
the problem squarely and ordered in
flated rates down.
Half a billion year loot! That's
enough to keep regiment of insults
in luxurious exile in Athens or Can
ada. And for the most part nothing
is being done about it!

DIR. LOMBARD

DR.. NJ. S. Lombard, who had been sur
geon at the Marine Hospital for six years,
will be remembered in Key West for two
things chiefly: his effective work as rep
resentative here of the State Board of
Health and his initiating the movement
that resulted in the building of an annex
to the hospital
AS a result of that addition, the per-
sonnet at the hospital was increased many
times and the patients there frequently
numbered more than 100.
DR.. Lombard's interest in the commun-
ity was remindful of that of DR.. Guiteras,
who married Key Wester and who, for
nearly a score of years, considered Key
West his home.
Dr. Lombard's medical work in Key
West was completed before he left here
Saturday evening for his new post in Mem
phis, Tenn. In doing that work, he was
always ready to cooperate with civic au-
thorities.
If he had any motto in his work at the
hospital it must have been Right Away"
1t was due to that promptness that he
accomplished so much of beneficial ma
ture, both as surgeon in charge at the
Marine Hospital and in the medical aid he
rendered in the community.
AS regards the annex, it was he who
conceived the idea of having it constructed
when the Veterans Bureau in Washington
first became active, and, in keeping with
his motto, he started Immediately to put
the idea into effect, through local civic
bodies.
That the personnel at the hospital has
since been reduced in number is no fault
of his: 1t was in keeping with the general
order to curtail expenses at veterans hos
pitfalls throughout the country.
The Citizen feels confident that it
voices the sentiment of all Key Westers
when it expresses its keen regret over the
transfer of DR.. Lombard.

THIS PROGRESSIVE AGE

The development of aviation goes for
ward at pace most startling to those who
really stop and take note of it.
The casual newspaper reader regards
nowadays as commonplace news the &C
counts of aviation feats which would have
startled the world but few years ago.
With Colonel Lindbergh off on an interna-
tional flight, with General Balbo landing
at Chicago with an Italian squadron of sea-
planes from Rome, with Admiral Byrd off
on another trip to the South Pole, with VIII
ey Post on solo flight to encircle the
globe, with Jimmie Mattern turned up alive
in Siberia, with Amelia Earhart having
hoped from San Francisco to New York
in seventeen hours, the world of aviation
looms so large and moves so rapidly none
of it can take tragic grip upon the i'm
agination of the people any more.
Yet aviation but typifies the revolu-
tionary changes which are taking place
just now throughout the world of human
institutions. Government, industry, fl
nance. commerce, all are undergoing revo-
lutionary changes.
He who attempts to interpret the pres
ent and the future in terms of the past is
bewildered.

AL SMITHS VIEW

In the midst of the enthusiasm for the
New Deal" sponsored by President
Roosevelt there has lately appeared
criticism of some of the measures whereby
his program is to be put into effect.
The most prominent critic Of the law
by which the government is empowered to
exercise dictatorial powers over business
and industry, known as the National Re-
covery Act, is Alfred E. Smith, presidential
candidate in 1928. In his magazine, The
New Outlook, he said, in part:
''This act, if the terms are carried
out, will cripple initiative, legalize and
even encourage monopoly, raise prices and
require higher tariffs to maintain the new
structures. The little man will be lost in
the shuttle. l do not want to see this land
of opportunity sink to dead level in which
we shall all be civic servants, working UNI
der political control. If that happens, we
shall have sold our American birthright
for mess of Communistic pottage."
A great many patriotic citizens agree
with Mr.. Smith that some of the legisla-
ton passed by the recent congress goes too
far in the direction of placing everybody
and everything under government control.
We can only await the result of these
revolutionary measures and in the mean
time hope for the best.

SIDELIGHTS
BY MARCY B. DARNALL,
Former Editor Of The Key West Citizen

An old war story recently revived:
There was much rivalry between two regi-
ments, one from Wisconsin and another
from Massachusetts,, stationed at the same
camp. One day travelling evangelist
approached the Wisconsin colonel, asking
permission to hold services and telling that
he had converted eight men of the rival
outfit. The colonel roared: "Adjutant,
detail 10 men for baptism at once; no
damned Massachusetts regiment is going
to beat us for religion"
