Governor Lehman of New York has signed a
bill which bars from school teaching and civil
service jobs in that state all persons who adj
vocate the overthrow of the government by
force, violence or any other unlawful means
says the Key West Citizen.
He also approved another bill which make
it unlawful to wear in public uniform similar
to that worn by military or other organizations Of
foreign country.
It is Unfortunate that situation exists
which makes the passage of such laws necessary.
but it is becoming more and more evident that
something must be done to curb un-A American ac-
tivities which are so widespread in the United
States.
Changes in our governmental policies may
always be effected by lawful means, which Is
through the ballot But patriotic Americans
should not tolerate the abuse of the privileges
granted by the Constitution and the Bill Of
RIGHTS by persons who would destroy our demo-
cratic Institutions
Such persons are deserving Of no encourage
n1ent or sympathy They are greater menace
to the United States than any prospective foreign
foe. Certainly they should be excluded from the
public payroll and especially from the teachins
staffs of our public schools

full to health, and maybe it is, but the y. s.

added, however, that there is no health

NOW THE REFERENDUM

City council has decided to hold a
special election Aug % on the question of
whether or not the new city charter shall
be adopted. Councils action followed
signing of petitions by more than % per
cent of the qualified voters, as stipulated
in the act finally approved by the State
Legislature
1t seems like waste of time, money
and effort to hold a referendum at this
time when the cooperative attention Of
our citizens should be directed toward
solving such problems as providing Key
West with better bathing and beach facili-
ties, with raising a fund for sponsorship
of federal work projects and other more
vital matters.
There are few changes in the new
charter to which any straight-thinking tax
payer and citizen can object. In general,
competent and impartial observers believe
the new charter merely attempts to inn
prove our municipal operation machine. 1t
protects the city employe by giving him
civil service rights, it insures a more
equitable form of tax assessment and col
lection of taxes, it provides for recall Of
city officials who neglect their duty or
abuse their power 1t seems to be step
forward in the direction of better local
government. sssst
OF course the election was mandatory
when more than Is per cent of the voters
sie1led petitions asking for it. But who
forced the State Legislature to put q
referendum provision in the act? Who
prepared and circulated the petitions?
Who misrepresented the provisions of the
new charter, so that many signers unwit-
tingly demanded an election that might
result in knitting their own best interests?
Who are the. men most interested in keep
ing things as they are?
If the citizens of Key West want their
municipal government to continue limping
along with one foot on financial banana
peel and the other in an economic grave
they should vote against the new city
charter.

see an Improvement at city hall, if they

done about reducing the public debt, so
that funds can be made available for pay
ing our city employees, for sponsoring work
projects and for other urgent improve
ments, they should vote for the new city
charter.
It is downright shame that our pub
lie officials had the power to compel q
referendum on question that should not
even be debated President Roosevelt has
said that no one has a right to strike
against the government. Why should the
people of Key West be asked to strike
against their own best interests-better
municipal government?
