VOTE Is INDEX
OF CONFIDENCE

1t is impossible to predict what
will happen between now and
1910 and today's survey is chiefly
important as an index of the
morale Of the two chief parties.
Here is the way Republican Demo-
cratic morale has shifted since the
first Institute survey, just after
the 1886 election:
TWO YEARS AGO
Democrats expecting Dem
ocrstic party to win 800
Republican expecting Re-
publican party TO win $50
TODAY
Democrats expecting Dem
ocratie party to win 61@s
Republicans expecting Re

Voters in New England. the Mid
die Atlantic states. and the East
and West Central states say they
expect Republican victory. Those
in the South and West say they
expect the Democrats to win again.

According to the man in the
street. therefore, Democratic Chair
man Jim Farley was not being
overly pessimistic the other day
when he forecast that 1910 would
be hard fight and said that Demo-
Gratis should not "delude" them
selves into thinking another land
slide was assured.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1939-05-02

That fact. which is revealed to-
day in a nationwide survey just
completed by the American Insti-
tute of Public Opinion. underscores
one of the most remarkable shifts
in the public's thinking ever regis
tered in Institute tests. IL helps
to explain the new confidence of
the Republican leadership and the
pessimism of many members of the
New Deal administration at the
present time.
In today's survey the institute
asked a carefully selected cross
section Of the voting population in
all states: Which party do you
think will win the presidential cleo
ton in 1902" The vote of the
country as whole is.

ABoLIsHINc COUNTIES

Governor Leon C. Phillips, Of Okla
homa, is said to nourish an ambition to re-
duee the expense of government by con-
solidating counties
Undoubtedly, the Governor has logic
and efficiency on his side. Practically
everybody in the United States agrees that
there are too many counties. Originally
developed in the area before the horse
and-buggy days, there is no reason for the
counties except the unwillingness of the
average citizen to permit his county to be
merged with another and the ambition of
county politicians to continue their terms
in office.
Sooner or later, most of the states OF
the union will reform their county-hne to
fit with modern transportation and corn-
munication facilities. What used to be an
overnight trip for citizens in county is
now a matter of few hours at the most
Regardless of the reason that suggests
county consolidation, the chances are that
county pride, plus the pressure, of county
seat towns and Cities coupled with the
motives mentioned above, will be strong
enough to stave off this desirable reform
for many years.

Sunday School Lesson

Clarkson says: In our country
there IS scope for much Christian
instruction throughout the land.
There are the young coming up
to be taught, there are the neg
lected and spiritually ignorant
multitudes crowded in our great
cities; there are uninstructed
numbers needing to be taught the
way of life, scattered through the
rural districts of the land. There
is ample room yet for the work
of the teacher, ample teaching
material from which to draw.
There is available on every hand
a very large measure of capacity
for religious instruction; and this
the Christian church should, like
the King of Judah. enlist on be-
half of the country. Then we
may look for the most excellent
results; for a country covered
with Christian teachers and satu-
rated with heavenly truth will be
"a nation walking in the fear of
God and resting under His
SMILE.
Does America need spiritual
teaching? c. H. Benson declared
that out of $4,000 children below
the age of Is, who had fallen in
to the hands of the police in New
York City. only one-sixth had
ever heard of the Ten Command
ments. Superior Judge Aggeler,
a Los Angeles jurist, found that
only two percent of the thou
sands brought before him for
every conceivable crime were ac-
tive members of any church at
the time of their arrest. After
having LIPS criminal boys hailed
before him in less than two years.
Judge H. S. Mott, Of the Toronto
Family Court, blamed this con-
dition on the lack of religious
training in city homes, to which
the Toronto Globe commented:
.The courts of the land are reap
ing the result of the past quarter
of a century of religious ridicule
and lack of restraint. More re-
ligious training is needed, but
how can goddess parents give
such training?"
The world today needs the
principles exhibited by the life OF

said. Eye are my friends if We do

WHERE TO ADVERTISE

A survey of traffic soutAbound
through the toll gate at Lower Matecuinbe
for the first ten days of July produced
some interesting results.
In that period 1892 cars carrying g.
947 passengers entered the district con-
trolled by Overseas road and toll bridge
commission. During the same time 406
commercial vehicles of all kinds were re-
corded. Including drivers, this means that
total of 1915 persons came down the
highway. That's a,thumping good dog
day record. -
Study Of the survey figures reveals
that of the cars bearing Florida licenses,
1,157 came from Dade (Miami) county,
PIT from Monroe Key West), 151 from
Hillsborough (Tampa), 81 from Broward
(Fort Lauderdale), and so from Duval
(Jacksonville).
While Florida cars were the greatest
users of the highway, 80 of the other At
states were represented in the traffic
parade from July to 10, inclusive. Auto
mobiles with licenses for Georgia, Ohio,
York, North Carolina, Tennessee, New
Jersey, Michigan and Indiana, in the order
given, lead the list. Only cars originating
in the great middlewest grain states were
not represented.
One of the important lessons to be
drawn from this midsummer survey is the
discovery that advertising and publicity
would be useless in the planting or harvest
seasons of the various states, and pro-
motional work would be likely to be sue
cessful at this time of year in the northern
states and in the southeastern states.
Also the figures clearly prove that
Floridians have time for vacationing dur
ing the summer months and that many of
them fancy the Florida keys. Advertising
judicially placed in Key West, Miami,
Tampa, Fort Lauderdale and Jacksonville
should also be productive. AS the keys are
ing followed by the national park service
and the Overseas Road and Toll Bridge
District, the keys will appeal to Florida
vacationists, fishermen and picnickers.
These developments as they are completed
should be emphasized in the advertising
and publicity sent to the areas from which
the great flow of summer traffic comes.
Spring, fall and winter surveys to be UNI
dertaken by the road commission will show
the spots that should be covered by the
advertising programs at those periods OF
the year.
It seems to The Citizen that the road
commission would be serving the public
interest in Overseas highway and follow
ing sound business practice if it turned
deaf ear to those would-be spenders of the
cash surplus piled up by the district until
traffic surveys clearly point to the spots
where advertising would be most effective.
Advertising pays in direct proportion to
the amount of thought and study put into
determining where it would do the most
good.
