DWIGHT ROGERS,
CONGRESSIONAL
CANDIDATE, HERE
MAKING RACE FOR REPRE-
SENTATIVE FROM FOURTH
DISTRICT: WAS CALLER AT
THE CITIZEN OFFICE

Dwight L. Rogers, candidate
for congress from the Fourth
Congressional District of Florida,
was a visitor in the city today
and a welcomed caller at the of
flee of The Citizen.
Mr.. Rogers said his object in
entering the race is to continue
his fight for the small hometown
ers. by exempting their homes
from taxation for bonded indebt-
edness. An amendment to the
constitution that mo state shall
be deprived of the right to ex-
empt all homeSteads from al tax
IS for all purposes" would make
the homestead exemption law
fully effective.
He has been a member of the
legislature for four consecutive
terms from Broward county He
is author and father of the Home
stead Exemption Amendment:
Old Age Pension Laws: Free
School Text Books: Equal Rights
For Women; Eight Hundred Dol
lar Per Instruction Unit from the
State to Aid Counties IN Provid-
ing a Full Eight Months Term IN
the Public Schools Of the State
Worked for the School Teachers
Retirement Fund
He cites the fact that he fought
vigorously for the public school
system and for the homeoWners
Of this state.
Among some Of the measures
for which Mr.. Rogers stands are:
He VIII advocate the construction
of a four-lane highway between
Key West and Jacksonville. This
is a real need and would mean
much 10 the people and TO the
development Of this territory.
He is intensely interested in the
+ welfare Of elderly citizens Of Flor
ida and VIII support measures
5 providing for adequate and abun-
dant old-agc pensions
He vii also advocate modifica-
ton OF the Reciprocal Treaty 81
as TO provide an adequate tariff
that VIII protect the interests oi
our farmers.
Another thing 20 which vii
lend his support is the Everglades
! National Park and viii vigorously
F support any legislation towards
+ the establishment and mainten-
snce Of the park.
He IS opposed 20 the policy O.

game he continually loses.
This happened before the arrest
of Andy Kelly. Robert Waterman
and Herbert Collins, who pleaded
guilty in Criminal Court and were
fined sum, which, with the
costs. was more than $500.
A Woodworking Key Wester
was at No Name Key while this
group were operating. and think
ing it easy to guess the designated
card, he ventured TO make the
bets and in a short time found
that he had lost $50.
The gamblers were tipped off
that the loser was aKey Wester.
and as they were planning to car
~ their operations right into Key
West. they decided to give back
the loser the amount of his losses.
These are but a few instances of
the method of the operations used
by the nomads who follow wher-

find opportunity to ply their easy

frequently to be successful.
