1 6USUu AdNbhACd V II v . another slash should be taken at the figures. That's one new automobile for every 30 men, women and chil- dren in the land, or new car fol every seventh family.
 It should be enough, even though it's million fewer cars than are being produced in 1940, but 1t just goes to show the part automobile manufacturers are expected to play in all this defense production.
 DEALERS DEALT OUT
 Furthermore, it gives you an idea of how hard hit & lot of auto mobile dealers are going to be with fewer cars to sell.
 It's the repercussion of this cut that probably will be felt most With more people making money, the demand for new cars will nat urally increase. There will be a temptation to bid up prices in this competitive market, but the gov- ernment price control policy will be standing behind the door to help dealers resist the temptation. Prices for good used cars may go up a little too, but again the policy will be to keep these prices reasonable.
 If the emergency goes on for any length of time, with curtailed auto- mobile production will be that old cars will be driven longer. If the sequel to that is more breakdowns on the road, the car owner will have to learn what he has now practically forgotten, how to get out and get under to fix up his own automobile.
 Already there Is a shortage of automobile mechanics in repair shops, caused by the securing of the country for machanists to work in defense industries. Road service department or American Automobile Association is really worried about that one.
 PLENTY
 OF RUBBER
 The tire situation is something else. Statisticians differ a little on the rubber supply, but OPM's rub Der experts see no threat of price rises, figuring imports now running 87 900 tons a month with consump- tion only 66000 tons a month and il months reserve on hand. unless shipping from the Indies has to be diverted, cutting of supply.
 Road building and traffic con- trol problems have defense angles, too. National Highway Users Con ference and the A. A. A. have both gone into this to report that of the 75,000 miles of roads in the United States, 5000 miles are less than 18 feet wide and 14,0O0 miles incapbale of carrying army trans port loads.
 Nearly 2,5o0 bridges of inferior standard bottleneck the system for use by tanks or heavy duty traffic.
 The l90 new camps with bad approaches are a major traffic hazard. and 4,000 miles of new ac- cess highways have to be built at a cost of some $230 million.
 Truck production for the present Is not curtailed, but on the books is War Department highway traffic advisory committee report that some time in June there will be national truck and bus in ventory. The idea will be to find out what equipment is available in event of national emergency.
 It's in the field of new tax pro- posals that the motoring public must take its worst bump. Accord ing to Automobile Manufacturers Association they line up like this

 A. The usual method is to use an ordinary machinists twist drill driven at slow speed to avoid heat" ing. For 1-2 inch holes and larger, 1t is sometimes more advantageous to use brass tube and carborun- dunn instead of the twist drill. The tube should be slottde at the cut- ting end. A small amount of water is fed with the abrasive, and the tube should be slotted at the cut quently to work the grit under the cutting edge,

Foretathers Day, which is De-
cember Il.
Pilgrim Feast
One bleak day more than 800
years ago. soon after they
landed on Plymouth Rock. the
Pilgrim Fathers decided they
would have a real feast. With
the aid and advice OF the In
dams. they cooked up a mighty
succotash dinner.
And 10 this day. their de-
scendants In Plymouth plously
eat this very meal every De-
cember Il, or ForefatherS Day.
And many Plymouth patriots
like IL so well that they eat II
at least once a week all the
winter.

TEMPORARILY INSANE

Atone time and another, The Citizen
has discussed at some length the IN
adequacy Of facilities in Florida for the
examination and incarceration of the men
tally diseased.
Perhaps it has been discussed to the
point of boredom, but the shooting yester-
day Of Eugene Edwards. a negro. is another
example Of what can happen under the
present system of waiting until period
ically insane man actually kills, or at
tempts to kill someone.
Officers here knew that Edwards was
dangerous under certain conditions. He
had attempted to kill man before, and
when, after period of normal behavior, he
threw bottle at woman yesterday, the
comment Of the officers was simply:
''Old Chucker's gone haywire again.
Let's go round him up"
When he finally was rounded up
he was dead, and it was only split
seconds hesitation on his part that kept
Constable Perez from being the one who
caught the bullet
The unfortunate feature of the situa-
ton, is that Edwards was far from being
the only one of his kind in Key West.
.8 Some of them have sudden outbursts
without any particular cause; sometimes
they're normal until they take drink.
In any case, officers here know OF a
number of men who, at times, are dam
gerous.
Ordinarily, the crimes they commit
in their "bad spells are trivial-open use
Of profane language, assault, assault with
deadly weapon, or whatever they happen
to be doing at the time the neighbors call
the sheriff. Even if they are sentenced,
they are quickly freed, and actually it
seems unjust at the time to keep them
locked up when they have returned to nor
NAL and don't remember what it was all
about.
The problem is one for doctors-not
policemen. And until there is some provi-
sion for taking care of men who go tenn
porarily insane, there will be more cases
like yesterdays.

OUR CHURCHES GROW

1t is interesting to report that a large
percentage of the population of the United
States maintains membership in the so reii-
gious bodies of this country.
Figures for 1910 show that forty-nine
per cent Of the people in this country are
members of some religious body The
record shows that there has been a gain in
membership and what is more significant, a
slight increase in the percentage of the
population which belongs to organized
churches.
The Yearbook of American Churches,
issued under the auspices of the Federal
Council of Churches of Christ i'm America,
which was recently published, reveals
some interesting facts about the religious
life of our people. In 1910, there were 64,-
Sol. 594 church members in the country,
attending 44,319 churches. The total OF
$50 religious bodies exceeds any previous
figure recorded.
Leadership in membership for single
sect goes to the Roman Catholic Church,
with 81 ,284,455 members. The Protestant
bodies, as a group, however, have an en-
rollment of 36,1O3,984 members. The
Jewish church is credited with 4,641, 184
members
First among the Protestant bodies is
the Methodist Church, with 1877 ,487, fol-
lowed by the Northern and Southern Bap-
list Churches, with an enrolment of A.
949,174
DIR. Benson Y Lands, editor of The
Yearbook, estimates that nearly 100000
900 was contributed to the churches of the
country in 1910 The largest beneficiary,
according to his estimate, was the Meth
odist Church, which received $48,601 1896.
Other leaders were the Presbyterian
Church, $42,062, 598; the Southern Baptist
Convention, $37, t36,531; and the Pro-
testant Episcopal Church, $32, 451 ,076.
