as boundless as the sea.
Not being one of this knowing
company we had, fallen into the
error of assuming the weather cur
rently at hand was Indian Summer.
1t seemed the sort of pleasant re-
spite from the cold which merited
the same. 1t was a mistake, of
course.
Professional Indian Summer
ties have been prompt to inform
us that that unofficial season of
the year is not yet due. 1t doesn't
come, it seems, until late Novem-
Der; it may not arrive until De-
cember. Thus, at any rate, the
pronouncement of those oracular
pronOuncers who have alas, doc
mentary definition to uphold them.
Even so, we shall continue to
rebel. Whatever may be the
proper term for this season of the
year, we like it. 1t is pleasantly
warm and endlessly gorgeous. 1t
has the fleeting quality of i'm
permanence, and curious wonder
of unreality. 1t ought to be Indian
Summer whether it is or not.

THE CHARTER MIDDLE

Efforts of the city to get new city
charter have struck an unexpected snag.
When the charter bill was introduced
to State Representative Bernie G.. Papy it
did not contain referendum clause. 1t
was passed by the mouse as introduced by
Mr.. Papy. Later the measure went to the
state senate. There Senator David e.
Ward added a section requiring referen-
dunn election if demanded by Is per cent
of the qualified voters. The senate passed
the charter act with the addition of this
requirement The house later approved
and repassed the act as amended
In due course more than Is per cent
of the voters demanded the referendum.
City council had the petitions examined
and ordered an election held Aug. %.
Later this was changed to Aug. Is. Then
the city clerk and the city attorney sent
to Tallahassee for a certified copy of the
charter act so they might be fully ip-
formed of the provisions The certified
copy in the form of photostatic reproduc-
ton of the original bill was received early
this week. Everything was found in or
der-except the referendum clause was
not shown on the copy of the act. Al
though the Journalistic official records
--of the house and senate showed the
referendum clause had been adopted by
the senate AMI later concurred in by the
house, this important section was missing.
The city attorney has held verbally
that the new city charter is in effect. He
so states because the original bill provided
it would go into effect Immediately upon
passage and approval by the governor. It
will be remembered the original bill had
no referendum requirement. The city at
torney has promised city council written
opinion on the charter question by tonight.
Proponents of the new city charter
were as amazed as anyone else to find that
the certified copy sent to the city by the
secretary Of state did not carry the referen-
dunn provision.
The Citizen hopes that the matter is
untangled in such way as to require the
referendum election on the new city char
ter. A substantial proportion of the quail
fled voters have demanded the right to
express themselves on the new charter;
They should be given chance to vote on
it. It is the American way to settle such
controversies at the polls.
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1939-08-03
BOTH ARE VALUABLE

Let's not make the mistake of under
estimating intelligence.
Too many people take every oppor-
tunity to say smart things about the man
of book intelligence, suggesting that they
believe that this is big joke.
No problem of the world will be
solved by emotions. No great benefit
comes to the world except through change.
Thousands of experiments would have
been valueless without trained mind to
read their messages and apply them truth
fully.
It's all right for a man to take pride
in his experience, garnered through the
years. He has something that is distinctly
an asset to him. However, let him not UNI

sources, you can list him among
those who are "out'' for the gov
lernorship.
Among the most formidable
Ilimelighters of the past week is
