The Files of The Citizen

=
Free transportation on south
bound ferries of the Monroe coun-
ty ferry system commences with
tomorrow and continues until
June 80. inclusive. The free
privilege applies to all automo-
bile and automobile passengers
enroute to Key West over the
highway during the period men
toned but not for BUSES nor pas
sengers of the motor lines operat-
ing into the city. 1t simply
amounts to half fares for the
round trip to Key West by auto
mobile from the mainland as the
regular fare will be collected
from the north~bound traffic
Under this temporary arrange
ment Key Westers may drive to
Miami and return by merely pay
ing ferriage for the car and pas
sengers on the north bound trip,
returning free over the ferries.
The county commissioners at a
recent meeting expressed keen
regret that the impression had
gone out that this half-fare plan
had been conceived as means of
competition with the railroad in
passenger transportation. Dis
cussions at the time the plan was
adopted were not intended to
convey such an impression, they
declared. In view of the fact
there are to be three large con-
ventions in Key West during this
period in connection with which
special rates would be expected,
it was decided to make a clean
sweep of the matter and collect
only one fare for the round trip.
ut would be utterly ridiculous
for US to attempt to compete with
the railroad, one of the commits
sioners declared.

Democrats at all we'll AS Democrats
they have been highly influential
seniors AS Republicans they will
come in as freshmen, if they do come
in. Nevertheless, where else have they
got to go? Accordingly fears are
voiced in Democratic quarters that
there will be considerable party
exodus following that Jackson Day
talk-which clearly meant, BE good
or be purged." Quite few politicians
may prefer to anticipate purgation.
True, as an offset to possible DEM

a bid for liberal Republican (and

to shift as readily at the present

the other way. Such Republicans as

That always is the weakness of the
party in power.
