Miami Has lnferiority Complex

MIAMI, Fla.-This city Is,
in a sense, a beautiful woman
with an inferiority complex.
Sne has a need to be told,
every day, how gorgeous she
is and how much she Is loved.
She SHES from strangers, but
without them she would die.
She preens herself constantly,
as though If a palm frond
were out of place she would
look dowdy.
HAVE LOVED HER since
1925. That's a long time for
q one-Sided affair. She Is
more breath-taking now than
then. Like a willow, she
grows more beautiful with
age. She's big, too. with
hips spreading all the way
from Snapper Greek to Opa-
Locka. If one takes in q few
Of the small towns which
should be a part of Miami,
the population runs close to
100000.
One afternoon the tempera-
ture was 66 and I wore a
sport shirt. A woman went

They wore heavy sweaters
and little snow hats with the
side flaps down. MiamianS
feel that 66 is cold.
The fishing is Of the finest.
The homes, even in the lower
middle income group, are
arrayed in bright colors be-
hind palm trees.
There are things I do not
like about Miami, too. A
man can love a woman and
and still spot a crooked seam.
The radio stations are among
the worst in the country.
The disk jockeys are OBJ
sessed with making weird
sounds and the announcers
try to make an ordinary
weather report sound as
though a Russian missile
were on its way. Everything
is uttered at the top Of the
lungs at top speed.
The policemen ALLEVIATE
visitors by watching for out
of-State cars and stopping
them. They ask to see your

license, and how long you
plan to stay in Miami. If
you say, "Oh, a couple Of
months" they tell you that
you will have to buy Florida
plates. They also believe that
he who hands out the most
summo1ses is the best police
man.
Take it from one who
comes from a family Of
policemen, Miami cops scare
tourists. I have received no
summonses but my New Jer-
sey plates have caused me to
be tagged down three times
so far.
There are, 1t seems, more
motels than people here. They
stand shoulder to shoulder on
the highway and. in spite Of
the sunny summery weather
all year around, they adver-
tise Heat" The beach, from
Daytona to Key West, is as
beautiful as any I've seen on
the French and italian Rivi-
era, but, along Collins ave-
nue. in Miami Beach, the big
hotels screen it like shower
curtains.
geographically, the whole
State is a bowling alley. It's
as fiat as a playboy on Sum-
day morning. When Miami
was laid out, around the turn
Of the century, the founding
fathers decided to do it in
the form Of a cross. There
is a Northeast section, a
Southeast, a Northwest and
a Southwest.
The city grew westward in
Evening star., 1960-12-26

giant strides, so that the
Northwest and Southwest
sections appear to have
squeezed the other two into
Biscayne Bay. Besides, there
are arteries like this: North
west Fifth street, Northwest
Fifth avenue, Southwest
Fifth street, avenue and ter
race. Asking a Miamian
how to get somewhere is
about as reliable as telling
time on an automobile clock.
THE NEWSPAPERS are
good but they, too, are OBJ
sessed with weather. They
will publish a photo of q
snowflake from any other
part of the United States.
The idea. Of course, Is to keep
the visitors in Miami-to
show them how cold it is
back home.
The beautiful lady's feel
ings Of inferiority show the
most in this.

County Teacher Attends
Truman Press Conference

A Montgomery Coun 1t y

a vacation in the west, en-
joyed the rare thrill of sit
ting in on a now-famous
press conference at which form
err President Harry S. Truman
announced his decision to re-
main away from the Demo

Mrs. Gladys Cross, a member
Of the faculty at Twinbrook
Elementary School, has sent

impressions she gained when,
while visiting the Truman Me
mortal Library in Independence,
Mo-, she was given the OPP
portunity of remaining while
Mr.. Truman conducted the press
conference from the stage of
the library auditorium.
AS the conference opened,
Mrs. Cross reported, "there was
hushed silence from the small
crowd made up mostly of radio
and TV reporters and few
lucky tourists" Then, she said,
"onto the stage stepped the
grayed, Immediately dressed
man from Missouri"

Mrs. Cross reported, but lad

Reporters, on asking ques-
tons, gave their names and af-

dressed Mr.. Truman as "Mr.
President" Mrs. Cross noted.
"As he ended with his hope
that the Democratic convention
would nominate man who not
only could be elected but would
know what to do to pull the
country out of home and for
eign difficulties, one felt a
sincere man was pleading for
maturity in the highest office

Courteous and Smiling
Mr.. Truman, she said, "re-
manned courteous, smiling and
composed" throughout the con-
ference, and "a time or two he
even went out of his way to
recognize a reporter who had
been outtalked."
After the conference, accord
ing to Mrs. Cross account, Mr..
Truman emerged alone from
the library, carrying his own
briefcase. After acceding to a
request that he sign autographs,
the former president borrowed
Mrs. Cross pen for the purpose.
