LOGIC OR NOT
A municipal judge is both judge
and jury. If he decides as a jury
that charges are not proved,
what then must he do as judge?
If charges are not proved, why
impose severe or any other kind
of penalty on defendant? When
charges are not proved, the just
procedure is to discharge the de-
PENDANT.
Let us assume that the cases IN
question were tried in criminal
court where there are a judge
and a jury, and the jury brought
in a verdict of mot guilty.. Can
the judge impose severe" or any
other kind of penalty on the de-
PENDANT?

ANOTHER SUNDAY

Well, another Sunday rolls
around. l wonder what Miami
papers will find to say nasty
about Key West tomorrow. Two
weeks ago the city was told that
it had people sleeping on beaches
and that there were no hotel
rooms here. Actually there were
1876 rooms by actual survey made
by hotel people. Last week, we
find that Fort Jefferson and Dry
Tortugas were no longer thought
worthy of our attention. Jealous,
jealous Miami. AS Cicero said in
one of his orations "Te ct Me,
murus". Between you and me, a
wall. May Key West never be
another Miami. -r

WHAT. NO RECALL

WHAT. NO RECALL
Well here's some big news. I'll
now bet my lone, battered nichIe
that there will not be a recall
election. That ways and means
for the opposing factions will be
found to slraighten out the diff
ferences between them. Thus far
l haven't lost this nickle on a
prediction. I bet on good horses
Many jump like steers when
these predictions get in the paper
but they see that eventually the
first sparks had been sighted
and reported on this column and
were correct. No credit to me
just darn good informants.
LIBERTY SHIPS HERR
With the news from Command
er Allen Hoar that the Navy is
ready to turn back Clyde Mallory
lines dock to the company comes
the question of what sort of SER
vice Clyde Mallory will give the
city. AS you know we got service
from New Orleans and New York
before the war and it is hoped
that with even more business
now that this service will con-
tinue. Another happy prospect is
the fact that Key West may get
some of those big liberty ships
on the Key West run to haul
freight. You know those big ones
which the government is tying
up all over. the country and may
later on sell for scrap. The skip
pers on those freighters putting
into Key West really know the
channel by heart. They come up
to a certain point, swing the ship
hard right and nestle right up
to the dock at a dead standstill.

Several months ago, in this column, pre-
dicted a reoccurrence of the crash which most
everyone still remembers which occurred in
1928. Of course, the new crash or starting of
a depression would undoubtedly have some
what different procedure times and regu-

emotions of regret to be faced with this and
with the self satisfaction of being able to say
II told you So" come to this point because
there are now these very same predictions be-
ing expressed by economists and those in the
headquarters of our government who are most
familiar with what is transpiring in our coun-
try.
1t seems that their thoughts now would
have it that farm prices will go up until the
harvest of next year at which time they will
crash Along with this, there are those people
who believe that it is necessary to have such
a crash in order that normal period of pros
perity can be reached. Their chief worry is of
political nature and what will Labor do If
they execute their plans? Will country
turn over to Third Party composed of Labor,
small business and liberal thinkers?
If such crash should occur and should
last over any great period of time during
which national elections are held, more than
once I can foreSee where there will be of
necessity a more radical change in the social
and economic laws of our country than any
which were passed during the New Deal Era.
To offset the planned economy of the con-
servatves, who believe that people should not
have economic freedom because it does not
make them good workers, it is now imperative
that public works projects be planned and de-
signed and that Congress set up commission
responsible to the President which will have
appropriations approved for their use, to set
into action immediate employment for the
approximate 100000 families who will be
Immediately affected by this anticipated crash
in our economic system. My uppermost
thought for these public works projects is in
the disqualification and medical field, with
highways and transportation second, then edu-
cational and recreational projects.
Yes, our Congress should wake up to the
needs of these families constituting almost Is
per cent of our total population.
