JAYcEE STRENGTH

Another very strong point /
am happy in is the fact that the
Junior Chamber of Commerce
appears now as an influential
political power. The other day /
was talking to a Rotarian from
Orlando, Florida. I asked him if
it were really true that the Or
lando Junior Chamber is a real
political power. "TIl answer that
in this way" he said, Those
boys have Individual influences
and are strong individually.

LET GEORGE DO IT

am the happiest l have been
for a long time this morning. The
victory of George Smathers,
youthful, veteran of overseas
service, who has mighty clean
backing behind him as far as l
know, and who has promised the
youth Of this community a real
chance if he went in, makes me
glad today. Although / could not
come out openly IL a newspaper
and state that / was for George
Smathers / had informed George
50 and had also told the opposi-
ton. Another point am happy
about is 10 me the great surge
in intelligence the vote is show
ing. Instead of letting a person
atty or a picture put man in
office the voters here and in
Miami seem to have sensed the
good underlying in Smathers and
was not deceived by opposing
propaganda.

ALL PREDICTIONS BUT ONE

Well, / didn't do bad on the
predictions. Everyone except one
went in from inside information
I knew that Smathers would be
ahead in Miami. We thought it
would be close there. Thus it was
further thought that Monroe
might be a deciding factor in
Smathers win or lose. In the
prediction, using these premises,
] thought Key West would go
for Cannon because he had
claimed so much credit for him
self which actually Adolf Hitler
and the war really gave in High
ways and water line. This is the
only prediction / was wrong in.
II is the one in which l am hap
piest to be wrong.

NO MONEY NO DUMMY

Digging little deeper into the
reason why am happy this
morning. To me there was ex-
hibited: Cd The fact that money
spent heavily by big men does
not insure an election, (2) The
fact that a dummy third candi-
date, an old political trick, is not
fooling the candidates any more.
Theodore Roberts was telling me
yesterday of the fallacy of a man
voting for a third dummy can
didate. This vote is drawn off
from the likely candidate and
given to a dummy third, placed
there for that reason.
