LEWIS TRIED TO RESIGN AS CIO PRESIDENT PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT ASKED TO STEP DOWN NAZI AIR RAIDS ON NAVAL BASES FORETOLD WASHINGTON. Oct. 25. The most sensational event at the CIO convention in San Francisco was so secret that even now only a few insiders SUMMER DEPARTING Leaves, like butterfly wings, drift' down Silver, and crimson and coppery brown, Weaving a carpet on every street And across the hills for the weary feet Of summer, who pauses before she goes To drop a kiss in the heart of a rose; To bend above a chrysanthemum Or touch the last blue delphinium With lingering fingers. Her dress is thinned FRUIT AND MILK George E.

Koplin, Winter Haven citrus grower, asks a question: Last season the grapefruit growers of Florida were asked to figure the actual cost of growing grapefruit, so that such a cost price could be used as the lowest price at which grapefruit would be sold. This was done and 32 cents per box on the tree was the price fixed. The courts declared it unconstitutional, and the grapefruit growers suffered a heavy loss in consequence. Last week I read in The Tribune where two dairies in Florida had lost their licenses to operate, because they had cut the fixed price on milk to the consumer. Evidently the same law that applied to grapefruit does rot apply to milk.

Sunday, the day before the convention opened, Lewis called a special meeting of the Executive Committee. After all the members were seated. Lewis entered the room, took his place at the head of the table, and said quietly: "Gentlemen, I've called ycu together to inform you that I have decided to retire as President of the CIO." The room became, as still as a tomb. With all eyes fixed intently on him. Lewis continued in the same quiet, conversational tone: "Before I left Washington, I saw President Roosevelt and he asked me, vivacious and lar hi the interest of labor peace to step of the yeteran Haho tt, down from the leadership of the CIO.

Lord Thomson to who will get the interim job. Most likely outcome is that Governor Cone will do the "Happy" Chandler stunt, by resigning, and Senate President Turner Butler, who will thus become Governor, will appoint him to the Senate.

5 That would make it Senator Cone and Governor Butler until 1941, with the strong probability that both would be candidates in the 1940 primaries for election for full terms. As an acting, not an elected Governor, Butler would be eligible to succeed himself. And that certainly would mix up the political horoscope. If the Governor decides he doesn't want to go to the Senate, then the question of the temporary succession to Senator Andrews remains open. And there'll be a flock of applicants for the appointment and of candidates for the regular term in the May primary.

Senator Andrews recently indicated that he wasn't interested in succeeding Judge Akerman, and that he would run for reelection; but our information is that he has changed his mind. The life-term bench is far more attractive than an elective office, with its political requirements, obligations and uncertainties. All this, of course, is only "what we have heard," but it comes from an authority that is supposed to know. We'll see what we'll see. Again Hunting Trouble If the steamship City of Flint, seized by a German raider, carries more than 51 percent contraband cargo bound for England, the seizure is fully justified by international law, and this government should not take the trouble to make a protest.

But if the ship's cargo is within the' law, this government should make prompt inquiry and demand for explanation. Not until official report is made can we know just what's what. That the City of Flint is owned by the government itself may complicate the situation to some extent. But, as a general and safe rule, United States ships, however owned and operated, ought to be kept out of belligerent waters. Incidents of this nature helped thrust us into the Worid War.

Every precaution should be taken to guard against a repetition of that experience. Under the President's neutrality plan, this couldn't have happened. Utiii teers nded The Utility Board complains of newspaper criticism. The Board probably regrets that Der Senator didn't empower it to regulate the press. The Board says it is proceeding to do the things the law directs it to do.

That is true. Our criticism has been directed not so much at the Board's execution as at its creation. The Board has spent all its budget money, can't pay its bills, and has contracted to spend a tremendous sum which isn't in sight.

Matt. Another Citrus Quarrel As usual, there's a quarrel on in the citrus industry. Governor Cone named six new men to the Citrus Commission, all members of the Florida Citrus Growers, exclusive grower organization, which is mainly to be credited with enactment of helpful citrus legislation at the 1939 session. Everybody appeared to think well of them. With its new membership, the Commission proceeded to elect a new Chairman, Luther Chandler, of Goulds, and to put out Glenn Grimes, of Bradenton, as Commission Attorney and to put in that place John Bull, of Tampa.

Whether it was these elections or something else that caused it, a storm broke on the citrus horizon. The Florida Citrus Producers Association and the United Growers and Shippers gave notice they would contest the eligibility of some of the new members, claiming that their qualifications under the new law are not exactly fight; specifically that certain of the new broomers did not meet the requirements of the law as to their actual experience and production in the 'fruit business. Back of this impending fight, which probably will go into court, is said to be the advertising contract, the richest slice of citrus pie the Commission can hand out. Critics of the new members charge that they are pledged to change the recipient of this toothsome marmalade in such fashion that the Governor's energetic, ad-selling son-in-law, Mark Byron, will participate in the enjoyment thereof; and that to hold them in line, the Governor exacted from each of the appointees his favorite political "ace in the hole," the "undated resignation." We don't know how true all thisns, or if it's true at all; but we hesitate to believe that any of these new Commission members, or any of the holdover members, would be in ney Hillman, brainy head of the If you meet a friend and remark, "It looks like rain," you may be arrested for disclosing military secrets.

Harbor Work Agreement Prospects of a resumption and continuance of federal harbor improvement appear brighter with Mayor Chancey's announcement that the government may accept the city's agreement to complete the Estuary railway and perform other particulars of its obligation within the coming five years. Chancey says the city is prepared to do these things in five years, through a carefully studied program. It would appear that this should be satisfactory to the War Department, which has held up further expenditure on Tampa harbor projects until the city makes some arrangement to do its part. With a time extension of five years, the city, it is stated, can provide its part of the work, without heavy burden on the taxpayers. We hope this will prove acceptable to the government.

Haskin volved in a deal of that character; and we doubt that Governor Cone would undertake to "frame" the Commission for such mercenary purpose. We imagine that the real trouble is the did fight between growers and grower-shippers to control the industry.

Here's a view of the case from the Winter Haven Chief, which we reprint for whatever it's worth: The Tampa Tribune and Orlando Sentinel have just learned that the six new members of the Florida Citrus Commission, appointed by Governor Cone, are all members of the Florida Citrus Growers, Inc. This should be to worry about, as the main trouble in the past with most of the citrus organizations has been that they were controlled by, and the money spent by, fellows who were not making a living raising citrus, but were living the citrus industry instead. Tiie Florida Citrus Growers, is composed of men who are real growers in name and action, and if they are not competent to say what is best for the industry, who is? Are they expected to raise the fruit and furnish the money to support a bevy of fellows who do not and never have owned an orange or grapefruit tree? Whatever may be the merits in this latest controversy, it is unfortunate that Florida citrus, just at the outset of what promises to be a satisfactory season, with the menace of green fruit for -the first time effectively removed by strong law ahoy efficient enforcement, with prices ruling far better than in recent- years, should again become involved in a factional fight of group against group, interest against interest, with politics again injected into what should be always and solely a business, an industrial administration. in the Florida fruit industry appears to be an impossible dream. If Christ and His Disciples should return to earth and be placed upon the Florida Citrus Commission, it wouldn't be many days before some selfish interest in or out.

of the industry would be trying either to control or crucify them. A Political Program "Here is the latest news," as the radio broadcasters say, from the Florida political front. From a source we consider unusually well-informed, we are advised that this is what is going to happen: Senator Andrews will be appointed to the Federal Judgeship. That will make a vacancy in the Senate until January, 1941, when the Senator nominated next May and elected next November, will take his seat. That vacancy Governor Cone will have to fill by appointment.
