became apparent at one time in
the 1882 Roosevelt campaign when
Mr.. Kennedy planked down a
check for a great many thousands
of dollars just at the moment
when the campaign needed it
most. That solidified Mr.. Kennedy
with the political end Of the
Roosevelt organization.
However, no job ever offered
Mr.. Kenedy in the Government
had anything to do with money;
in fact he has lost lots Of money,
his friends say, by accepting 10
and IL thousand dollar a year
posts. He is said to have lost
three million dollars by not being
in New York during his term as
chairman of the Maritime Com
mission.
CAMPAIGN AUTHOR
In the second Roosevelt cam
paign, Mr.. Kennedy's value was
apparent in his approach to in
dustrial leaders. He. took the view
that the country is. in a new era
and it would do no one any good
merely to criticize. He suggested
that all hands become construc-
lively interested instead Of throw
ing rocks. He wrote a campaign
book, "Why I'm for Roosevelt" I"
and contributed largely.
The President made him chair
man of the SEC, which he ran
for about three years. Then he
resigned and went back to New
York and took up his own bust
ness, acting as a sort of doctor
for sick industry.
The President had to urge him
to come here as Maritime Com
mission chairman, a job which Mr..
Kennedy took reluctantly; it was
too much of a strain, he Thought.
He was directed to work out a
policy for subSidizing the mer-
chant marine and to find a way
to subSidize aviation.
While on the job he had a
stand up fight with the seaman's
union which staged a sit down
strike in South American port
aboard an American vessel.

RIDER ROW
STILL HUI N )
ON HILL

The specter Of the "red rider, -
though it was to have been killed
forever, still danced bef re
harassed members Of Congress to-
day.
After three hours of debate and
voting yesterday. during which
party lines were broken and dyed
in.the-Wool conservatives spoke for
outright repeal, the House voted a
compromise bill that permits the
teaching of Communism in the
local schools but prohibits its ad-
VoCacy.
But although 234 members of
the House sighed with relief when
they voted for the Mccormack
amendment, it appeared almost
certain today that they have not
written "finis" to the tWo-year-old
fight.
Record Vote Likely
Indications were that the bill
will now 60 to a conference with
the Senate. which last week voted
unanimously for the Wheeler out
right repeal bill. If the Senate
refuses to accept the Mccormack
amendment, as is expected, Rep
resentative Mary T. Norton Cd
of New Jersey, chairman of the
House District Committee, and
leader of the fight for unqualified
repeal will ask for a record vote
in the House.
The bill in its present state was
called the pink rider during de-
bate yesterday, as Representative
John w. Mccormack Cd of Mass
achusetts, gathered support for
his amendment, which finally
came to a record vote-234 to lis
for the amendment. Mr.. MCCor-
mack'S addition to the bill is as
follows:
provided, that hereafter no
part of any appropriation for
the public schools shall be avail
able for the payment of the sal
ary Of any person advocating
communism or treating any such
doctrine with favor or support;
but no official or teacher shall
be required to make any special
declaration of nOn-viOlatiOn here
of as a condition for payment Of
salary"
The amendment eliminates the
affidavitS now required of teach
ers every two weeks before they
receive their salaries, in which
they are compelled to swear that
they have not taught or advocated
communism.
Fish Surprises
Greatest of the many surprises
that cropped up during yester-
days debate was the appeal of
Representative Hamilton Fish, jr.
(RD, of New York, for outright
repeal of the measure. which he
described as a "traveSty mock
cry and legislative absurdity that
never should have been passed
in the first place"
Mr.. Fish. most outspoken foe
of Communism in Congress, de-
clared that the red rider" is
an insult to the school teachers
of America" and denouncing
Communism, said that the way to
defeat its spread is not through
secrecy but through exposure.

Chamber OF Commerce

In Interest OF Key West

The Key West Chamber of

is agreed.
Not only does it carry on a
voluminous correspondence with
people in all parts of the United
States and in foreign countries,
and maintain a vigilant watch for
opportunities that Key West BUSH
ness men may grasp, but it has
done something not usually accom-
plished by Chambers of Commerce
in larger, but perhaps less neigh
borly cities.
We find the wage earners of
the town regarding the Chamber
of Commerce as champion ready
to step to the front for them
when they need a representative.
