TEcHNocRAcy.

Technocracy Is the newest solution
offered for tho worlds economic
troubles, according to statement by
Frederick II, Mcdonald. secretary OF
the executive committee Of the engi-
neering economies division Of the
American Society Of Civil Engineers.
",rhe project assumes the guise OF
responsible engineering and scientific
approval" Mr.. Mcdonald said, while
using the most unorthodox methods OF
publiclzing an unsubstantiated hoax
yet perpetrated.
"'rechnocracy is fanatic fixation

ton Of science to the production, pro-

High School Notes

Old Man Depression became promin-
emit at Vashon high school this morn
ing. Students who, up to this time had
failed to recognize that the wolf was
promenading ON the high school steps,
became aware Of the fact when teach
ers informed them that maximum of
eight sheets Of theme paper, per week,
would be allowed each pupil-for the
remainder of the school year.
This means that the freshmen must
cease drawing pictures and the seniors
note writing will have to stop. Be-
cause of the great amount of money In
unpaid taxes 1t has been found neces-
sary to cut down school expenses. This
new economy which is one OF the saw
ings being effected this year is expect
ed to reduce the deficit.
With volley of balls and flash of
rackets the high school ping-pong
tournament began Monday the
thirteenth. The committee decided to
run off three girls and three boys
games each noon-period. Great inter-

SPENDING AND SAVING

The problem of spending and saving
is as old as civilization, and in scarcely any
phase of human conduct do we find greater
differences among different persons. 1t is
unfortunate that'so few are able to strike
happy medium between stinginess and
wastefulness.
The type of spendthrift who wastes
inherited money is we'll known, as is also
the lazy, shiftless type who lives from hand
to mouth in good times or bad. The in
dustrious worker who literally throws away
his earnings is more rare
An illustration of the latter class is
seen in the late author and playwright. Ed
gar Wallace, who was one of the most pro-
life and successful writer's of all time. In
the 25 years before his death he wrote
some 100 full length novels and literally
thousands of short stories, besides 20 plays.
So many of his works had big sales that
his income must have been exceedingly
large.
He was thought TO be y wealthy man,
but at his death his estate was found III
sufficient to pay his debts, and his wife was
left without means OF support Ii seems
incredible that man of Wallaee's intelli-
gence and tirelesS energy should have been
SO short-sighted with respect to his finan-
cial affairs.

FLORIDA, THE PIKER
Miami Post)


Florida is a piker when it comes to
wanting something off the government.
We have been in the position, previously
where the administration pust didn't give
whoop whether we were bitten by an alli-
gator or jumped into the Gulf Stream.
Then, owing to a more or less political
turnover that had a religious and prohl-
bition basis, Florida lined up with the
other political party and we began to be
taken notice of. The administration, at
that time, put us on the doubtful political
list and we received several gobs of mon
ey for various things. Now that we are
lined up on the right side as far as the
present administration is concerned and
heading for that new deal, we are in a
position to do some plain and fancy ask
ing for large and enthusiastic government
projects accompanied by mazuma in mil
lions.
But we still remain the piker
state. Our modesty is APPALLING. We have
more to offer the world and our asking
ability is apparently petrified. Take Cal
ifornia, for instance That bright golden
state has never been modest when it came
to asking the national government to ante
up.
This year, when all states are after
some dough for various projects, Californ-
la has done it's asking with right, royal en-
thusiasm. All that state is asking for is
mere matter of eight hundreds of millions
of dollars for public projects. Ye Flor
idian pikers rise in your might and get your
askers working on all sixteen. Florida,
a much more important state to FloridianS
than California, is only asking mere bag
atelle from the government. Why, we are
not asking for more than the interest OF
the amount California is asking. We need
eleven millions of dollars for an army air
base.
We need money to lay water pipes
and build an airport in the bay. We need
a new dock for the dirigibles at Opa Locka
We need larger and better eaAipped naval
bases, coast guard bases andany old bases
that will bring money and work to the
state, We are to get five millions of dol
lars for federal highways and we don't
have to match nickel of it in state funds
we are not asking for more than
about one hundred and twenty-five mil
lions of dollars. Are we going to let Cal
lfornia put one over on us like that? No,
sir! Get busy and work up a few more
public projects. Get to thinking how we
can get hold of the few odd millions. It's
coming to us for we've not been on the
gravy train before and it's time we started
riding.
We are asking in Florida for about
Dne hundred million dollars for cross
country canal. We need eleven million
dollars for an army air base and ten mil
ions for an overseas highway We need
about two million for a Pan American ex-
hibition and about million for city pur-
poses. The rest of the state is slow
n asking for anything that sounds like i'm
portant dough- California asking eight
hundred millions will probably get two
Florida asking less than two
hundred millions will probably get ten dol
ars and thirty cents
