TAxDoDGING

Every owner of real estate in Key
West and elsewhere in Monroe county
should pay his taxes, if he is financially
able to do so.
1t is surely a reflection on the stability
of Key West to be told that only about
three percent of the owners of real estate
here have paid their taxes
Among the 81 percent that is delin-
but the great majority of them are able to
meet this obligation.
Some owners of Key West realty may
think they are benefiting themselves by
their refusal to pay their taxes, but they
are harming their city far more than they
are helping themselves.
No taxpayer is justified in taking
stand not to pay his taxes, regardless of
what his actuating motive is in assuming
that position.
The only reasonable excuse is, if the
taxes are exorbitant and that excuse can
not be advanced conscientiously in the
case of Key West.
In the last SIX years taxes have been
reduced more than 40 percent, but every
reduction has resulted, not in more but in
fewer owners paying their taxes.
Because of this widespread taxdodg
ing, Key West is facing serious situation,
and unless recalcitrant property pwners
wake up to the conditions theyshspe been
and are still creating, they wiiffuih the
city financially. s.ss& @sS
The first thing outsiders do, when in
terested in buying real estate in any city,
is to find out the tax situation in that city.
What conclusion would they reach
when they learn that only three percent of
last years taxes has been paid in Key
West?
They would not want to have anything
to do with real estate in a city with tax
muddle similar to that in Key West.
That unquestionably would be their
attitude. And who would be the suffer
ers, financially speaking? The taxdodgers
themselves.
This fact should be outstanding in the
mind of every delinquent taxpayer in Key
West: you can not harm your city without
harming yourself.
Finally, the city and county authori-
ties also should at least insist that every
man who is an official of either political
subdivision should pay his taxes.

For Hard Coughs Of
Colds That Worry You

Creomulsion is made to give SUI
preme help for coughs or colds. 1t
combines z helps in one-the best
helps known to science. 1t is for
quick relief. for safety.
But careful people, more and
more, use it for every cough that
starts. No one knows where a
cough may lead. No one can tell
which factor will do most. That de-
ponds on the type of cold.
Circumcision costs little more
than lesser helps. But it means the
utmost help. And it costs you moth
ing if it fails to bring the quick
relief you seek. Your druggist
guarantees it. Use it for safety's
sake. (adv.)

The Citizen believes that President
Roosevelt has made his first major faux
pas in eaneelling the air mail contracts.
The chaff should have been separated from
the wheat. not the whole wheat annihilat-
ed in order to destroy the chaff. Aside
from this injustice. lives of the filters and
property of the government should have
been taken into account. Six precious
lives have been sacrificed and more than
a dozen planes demolished within few
days. Too high price for its moral eff
feet The guilty mail contractors could
have been punished without such revOlu-
tionary change and drastic measure. When
a house is on fire. efforts are made first to
quench the flames and then if suspicion
points to incendiarism, track down the
guilty culprits.

HEALTH RACKETEERS

Medical quackery, which for several
years gradually lost ground because of the
growing tendency of newspapers to re-
ject quack advertising, seems to have
found a new and potential aid in the radio
Much advertising which no self-re-
speeding newspaper would print is freely
broadcast over the air, evidently with some
success in attracting suckers, because it is
being continued in undiminished volume.
Those who prey upon the public by
fraudulently cashing in on the universal
desire for health are characterized by DIR.
f. P. Lyon, dean of the medical school of
the University of Minnesota, as health
racketeers'
He says of this type of faker:
"His health patter is. pseudo science.
His eye is on your check book. In these
days especially he prostitutes the radio to
his uses. Quacks and quackery, takers
and fakery of all kinds appeal to a be-
wildered public between jazz and the
nasal tenor, with blatant advertisements
that no reputable journal will print. Oh.
health, what crimes are committed in thy
name!
Even some of what appears to be legi-
innate advertising is very deceptive. The
doctor says further: s'Brushing the teeth
is nice habit; but no one has proved that
ii saves teeth, and all the flamboyant adj
vertising about tooth pastes is rottenest
tommyrot.'
We often wonder if Bill Hay doesn't
reel off his chronic radio spiel about film"
with tongue in cheek.

American abandonment of all military

kuo, and then the Filipinos will sigh for the
freedom enjoyed under the sombrero of
Uncle Sam.
