neighbors' lots; parking in the
middle of the street to talk to a
passing individual in a car; on
Saturday night, groups standing
in the middle of the sidewalk,
crowded, everybody has to walk
around; blowing horns all hours of
the night, no thought for the sick
or comfort of others.
"Let me say something about
this garbage question: Throwing
garbage in neighbors' lots; how
short-sighted that is. 1t is not a
good policy, even from selfish
standpoint. Flies light on garb-
age. love filth, vile smelling,
putrid, the viler the better they
like it. Fences do not keep them
out. Even screens do not entire
ly. Flies too, they are indiffer-
ent to the wishes and rights OF
others. They do not brush their
feet. They wipe them on your
food, on the baby's bottle after
crawling over the contents of cess
pools and garbage cans. If your
neighDo1's. premises have such,
your .ealth is in just as much dan
ger.
Perhaps the most important
single factorin a successful Cham
Der os Commerce is the secretary.
In bonn days, $500 per month
was paid. But after few months
most of the energy of the organi-
zation was devoted to collecting
the secretary's back salary. No
funds for anything else.
"The present secretary's salary
is a meagre one. / believe he will
render service if he receives your
support. He loves our city. He
loves or sunshine and available
fresh air. But he is not one of
the Epiphytes.
"For you who are not botanists,
an epiphyte is an air plant, as
you have observed Steohe Coch-
ran Singleton eats.''

Speech By DIR. Warren

In beginning his talk on "How
Can Rotary Help the Chamber OF
Commerce." DIR. Warren said:
''In regard to membership it
must have the support of substan-
tial citizenship, so every Rotarian
should join"
DIR. Warren continued:
mo organization can run with.
out funds. There is great enthus-
iasm when things start but few
are in at the finish. So many al
low insurance policies to lapse.
'Rotary's success. in a largo
measure depends on attendance
So the Chamber of Commerce can.
not function without attendance.
"Cooperation--such an over.
worked word. Working at cross.
purposes, with indifference--two
cancers eating the life substance
out of our community.
"Start a constructive project,
Immediately a counter destructive
movement is born. We are joke
to the rest of the state because
Of petty personal spites and fights.
We do not fight for our projects;
we fight against them to satisfy
personal animosities, regardless of
the common good.
''Look at the present Legisla.
ture. Are we represented or mis-
represented? Do you subscribe
to the slogan ITO the victor belong
the spoils?' That legislators are
sent up to represent themselves?
They do not say so when they are
campaigning?
"The most important project

Of the Overseas Highway. A tar

for suspicion, counter proposals,
selfish interests looking for graft
and huge profits. A plum for

the general public.
"Larnch any public enterprise,
selfish individuals jump in to get
their fingers in the pie.

TOO LATE TO
CLASSIFY
s.seeeeeee..esssesss...

The boys up in Tallahassee seem
to be all hot and bothered over
this s.ot machine question, but
the answer TO my mind is simple.
All they gotta do is turn the
whole mess over to Mr.. Mayo and
forget it.
If beans, peppers and egg plants
come under. the head of agricul-
ture, certainly lemons, cherries
and pll.ms ought to enjoy SIM
liar Classification. y
Of course, if you want to get
technical, you might term the
slot machine a form of mechanic
al tanning, but as far as I can
see, the result from Che players
standpoint, is about the same. II
anything, the dirt farmer takes it
on the chin harder and cftener in
his gamble than does the guy who
sticks to mechanical agriculture.
The city slicker drops flock o.
nickles in slot machine and il
luck is with him he play get a
crop of cherries or p,ums or may
be a Jackpot.
On the other hand, the dirt
farmer plants a mess of seeds.
bears down on the old hoe handle
and if he is lucky may make
enough from his beans or cab
bage to pay the rent and buy the
baby new pair of shoes.
Of course the odds are against
him just as. they are against the
poor bozo who confines his agri-
cultural adventure to a mechan-
ical device. The wheel Of for
tune srins and instead of gettin'
three beans in row with a nice
juicy pay-off, the farmer reads
the record and finds al he drew
was one hail storm, one drought,
and a market slump.
Bot it is all in the game and
when the farmer in one section
loses all lie puts in, the growers
in other sections cash in by get
ting bigger prices on the strength
of short crop.
But slot machines are wicked
because the smart guys who OPP
crate 'em and the merchants who
provide the location make money
whethe-. the players win or lose
On the other hand, the COM
merchants, the railroads,
the fertilizer companies, get their
dough or mortgage or some-
thin regardless of how the poor
dirt farmer fares.
Now if prohibition would really
prohibit, we might pass a law
maxim it a criminal offense to en-
gage in any kind of farmin' OPP
erations because lot of farmers
have lost money, but we tried this
prohibition legislation in a great
big way and it proved to be a
grand and glorious flop.
Try and tell the average Ameri-
can he CAN'T and he'll do it in
spite of hell and high water,
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1937-04-30


whether it be plantin' seems and
takin' a chance with the elements,
the worms, the market and all 9TH
er hazards, or riskin' dime on a
crazy-quilt at the Sunday School
bazaar.
Mr.. America has been siloetin'
dice, playin' poker, buyin' sweep
stakes tickets, bettin' on the pom
les, jabbin' punch boards and
pullin' slot machine handles so
long that all the laws in the uni
verse can't stop him.
Mrs. America slaps her loose
change on the bridge table, ped
dies lottery tickets for the Wo-
mans Auxiliary, sells chances on
her chocolate cake at the County
Fair, and vouldn't miss Bank
Night" or "Screeno" for the
world, but the dear soul would
cry her eyes out if you accused
her of gambling.
But cettin' back to the slot ma
chine question: The situation in
this state at present is mess;
everyone admits that, even the
operators themselves.
We can make them illegal, spend
a million dollars tryin' to enforce
the law, but we won't change hui
man nature and we won't stop
gambling, but we will LOSE THE
REVENUE.
On the other hand, we can de-
wise legislation that will effective
ly and intelligentiy control and
regulate these machines, either
by state operation or rigid en-
forcement and derive sufficient
revenue to meet every need with
out any new forms of taxation.
Or maybe you'd rather pay a
state income or a sales tax.

the discovery that East Texas oil
lay in photographic reservoirs
traps formed by variations in the
formation of the strata, instead of
beneath domes, or anitclines, which
characterize oil deposits in older
fields. In earlier searches for oil,
dOmes, anticlines, and faults were
carefully noted; stratigraphic reser-
voirs received scant attention. To
day, biologists are inclined to be-
lieve that the yield of oil from such
reservoirs may be tremendous.
These reservoirs, formed by wedges
