The first portion Of North America TO be de-
veloped and to have thickly populated centers was the
Atlantic Coast section.
New York City and Its Metropolitan District. be-
cause Of the superior advantages OF location on the
turn Of the natural pathway to and from the North
East Of this country and Canada, and the southeast
has become the City Of the Atlantic.
The second portion OF North America to DO
developed and to have thickly populated centers was
the North Central and Great Lakes section
Chicago and its Metropolitan district because
Of the superior advantages Of location on the turn OF
the natural pathway around Lake Michigan to and
from the East and the North Central portion Of this
country and Canada has become the City Of the Lakes
The third portion OF North America to be de-

the Pacific Coast section.
Los Angeles and its Metropolitan District, be-
cause Of Its superior climate and its superior advan-
tages Of location on the natural pathway to and from
the north, south and east and the Pacific Coast Of this
country, has become the City Of the Pacific.
The fourth and last portion Of North America
to be developed is the central south and west and
the Gulf Coast section OF both this country and
Mexico.
This portion OF North America has Just started
its Development and is Just beginning to have thickly
populated centers.
The Gulf Coast section OF the Rio Grande VAL

because Of the superior advantages Of climate and Of
location on the natural permanent pathway around
the Gulf Of Mexico to and from all parts Of this coun-
try and Canada and all parts Of Mexico. Central and
South America and on account Of its many other adj
vantages. viii be the location of the largest City and
Metropolitan District Of the Gulf.
This City and Metropolitan District Of the Gulf
will have a more rapid development and growth than
New York. Chicago. or Los Angeles has had because
Of many good and natural reasons.
Good roads, automobiles. air travel and improv-
ed motor bus and railway transportation and many
other improved facilities will enable people to both
move and build more rapidly in the future than In
the past.
The building and growth Of this City and Met
ropoitan District Of the Gulf is destined to be the
next big opportunity for the masses OF the world to
make great wealth.
1t is their last opportunity to participate In the
great wealth created BY the building and growth OF
one Of the four largest cities and metropolitan districts
Of North America.

For the past century or more. city building has
been one OF the greatest and most profitable indus
tries. During that time we have practically built many
Of the largest and richest cities Of the world.
This new City and Metropolitan District OF the
Gulf will be more modern, attractive and up-to-dats
than any Of those already built. because It can pro-
fit by the mistakes OF other cities and also have the
benefit of newer and better facilities for building.
People like to live in big cities and metropolitan
districts surrounding them.
They like the glamour and life OF 1t, the oppor-
tunities for amusement. entertainment and recreation.
the opportunities Of education which they have avail
able. They also like the comforts and privacy q a
big city and the hops which most OF them have Of
participating in It's great wealth
There always has been and always viii be as .
rule and almost constant drift or flow Of people, money
and other forms Of wealth from rural sections and
from the smaller towns and cities to the great cities
and metropolitan districts OF the world. This Is Just
as natural as for water to f'ow from one little stream
TO a larger one, and on finally to the sea. The flow
Is larger and more regular in good times, Just a.
the flow Of a stream Ia larger when the rains are
plentiful and regular.
City building Is, therefore. one Of the most profit
able. most staple, most permanent and most interest,"
ing businesses Of the world.
Location is g very important thing to be con-
sidered in city building just as 1t Is in any other
building, business or industry.
Within this location OF the future largest City
and Metropolitan District Of the Gulf and vicinity We
have some Of the greatest oil and gas fields Of the
world. There are. in this section, vast quantities Of
rich water power and oil and mineral deposits Of many
kinds yet to be developed which viii furnish power,
fuel and material for a great new city and metro
politan district
This location for the City and Metropolitan
District OF the Gulf Is not only on the turn Of the Gulf
Of Mexico. but is on the dividing line. or rather the
meeting line, between our two great modern races OF
the new world, the North American race and the Lat
in American race.
This Is a very special, unique, distinct and e-
traordinartly important and valuable advantage Of 10
cation which this new city and metropolitan district
viii have over all other great seaport cities Of North
America.
Here, both these new, modern, vigorous, pros
porous and progressive races Of people meet tn daily
friendly contact on thsir native lands, each ~ccntribut-
ing greatly to the development and building up Of this
marvellous section Of practically unlimited potential
production and growth.

Already 30 great has been the progress In the

Congress recently passed q bin which provides for con-
s~tructing and maintaining n deep water. sea level,

FOURTH INTERNATIONAL
GAINING IN MILL CITY
By Seth

~ SSSA
With funds derived indirectly
from M scow through the
United States Fourth Interna-
tionale headquarters in New
York, the Workers Party of the
United States Fourth Interna-
tinale) has established itself in
Minneapolis and opened a COM
bined press and book shop at 63l
3rd Ave. S. This workers par
ty is not to be confused with the
Third International, the Tros-
kyites, who have been establish
ed in Minneapolis for some time.
But no matter whether Third or
Fourth International, the Party
is Communistic, which sufices.
The Northwest, especially
Minnesota, has long been a
stamping ground for reds. They
and their subversive propaganda
and actions have been greeted
with exceptional tolerance which
would never have been accorded
them in any other state. The
Mill City is the CHG of Mime
sofas Communists, who number,
according to the membership
book to be found in a dingy
house in North Minneapolis,
about eleven thousand.
Drifters, transients, compose
some of this eleven thousand.
These drifters generally make
the rounds of all principal cities
in the Northwest states, usually
finding themselves back in the
Mill City before long. A few
of the inner circle of "red" pro-
fessional agitators, notably Alec
Droste, Earle Howard and Mike

Olson was plainly stuck if the

had changed its name years ago

FL DOUBLEE-CROSS
By Seth

1t would be too much to hope
that there is truth in the state
ment issued by Elites in con-
troll of the city government to state
to FL leaders that mo patron
age" will be available to the state
machine.
The state machine elected Lati-
mer mayor of Minneapolis, and
while it wouldn't be unusual for
a politician to bite the hand that
nurtured his fond ambitions, it
would be asinine to expect a man
to murder his own political ca
reer-which is exactly what Tom
Latimer, new mayor of Mill
City, would be doing if he turn
ed on the machine that made him.
The asininity wouldn't be quite
so marked, however, if Latimer,
by playing Benedict could gain
the support of conservatives. It
could in fact be termed a smart
political move and make laugh
ing stock of the FL machine.
All in all, it can be taken that
the statement of the city Elites
given out to the press is merely
an over gesture to allay the fear
and dislike with which the FL
machine is viewed by many big
business men in the city. It's
hardly believable that the Star,
Tribune and Journal accepted the
statement at face value, since
there is certain modicum of in
telligence in even these pant
lette' daily-maids. Certain eds.
probably Uttered as they accept
ed and printed the free advertis-
ing that it is the custom of the
daily sheets to extend to political
parties. 1t can be put this way:

In re Christian, 10 MINI. 465,

But Judge Dickinson found,
tho, that OlSon's failure to make
any accounting of admitted one
thousand dollars worth of radio
time was trlViGl.
The custer action was dismissed
on motion of Olson, the court
not allowing Monaghan the GUS
tomary privilege of argument.
The court found Olson honestly
believed the FL Association was
incorporated and relieved him of
a fixed legal responsibility, which
has nothing to do with belief.
The Association either was or
was not incorporated and Olson's
belief is legally inconsequential.
And the court found that o.
sons failure to account for a |
thing of value amounting to one
thousand dollars was trtvial,
when the Supreme Court has on |
many occasions held that far less
serious violations were sufficient |
to warrant forfeiture of office.
Again, we say, that most emf
nent lawyers agreed previously
to the trial that the custer petit
ton was well founded in law and
fact. If it was made a faScO,
that occurred in the court room

Monaghan.
James O'Brien, staff lawyer of

against commencing the custer
action for the reason that, even
tho the laws might have been vio-

to upset election results. Dickin-
son depends for his own job on

natural bias which contestants
are required to confront.

 Platts Mills, Feb S-A vote to take immediate action in regard to the board of education's recent move in replacing Miss Loretta E. Sullivan as teacher at the Lincoln school here was unanimously passed at last nights meeting of the Platts Mills Community Asso- citation. Inc, in the smoking par lors of the Bristol company stu- dio.
 A committee was appointed to draw up a resolution to be pre-. scented by the association at the next meeting of the board in Wa terbury 8 week from Monday, with the hope that the educators will reconsider their action. The asso- citation feels the replacement of Miss Sullivan a keen disappoint- ment to the community people as her untiring efforts on behalf of tho children since she has assumed that capacity have been outstand- ing.
 The parents of the school chill dren sincerely believe that Miss Sullivan should be retainedsdue to the wonderful work she has att tained as Lincoln school teacher the past three years. Tlre asso- citation knows very little about Miss Dorothy George, named by the board Monday to succeed Miss Sullivan, but regardless hold the opinion that the latter should be retained under all circumstances.
 Luther w. Tooker presided at last nights meeting and announced that the association will sponsor Valentine dance Saturday, Feb- ruary 16, and a circus auction Sat- urday evening, March g. in the Bristol company studio.
