Prefabs Out For Gables, 2 Experts Agree

(Continued from Page One) Gables with his high esthetic and structural standards, could never permit such a type of housing." He stated that in addition to the duplication of elevation that the construction is not up to par with the concrete block, tile roof type of building required by our building code. He also referred to newspaper accounts of such houses being severely damaged in the recent hurricanes. "The prefabricated house will never be the answer to a housing shortage in Coral Gables," he added. Anderson Agrees Henry Clay Anderson, chairman of the Zoning Board of Appeals, upheld Fink in his contention. "I had a little experience with them in Kentucky," Anderson told the Riviera-Times, "and I would shy away from them for Coral Gables." He said that despite developments in the industry he doubted if prefabricated houses could ever be manufactured to meet the building requirements in Coral Gables. "I can't see where they would fit in at all," he said. "They will never meet the standards of real architecture and solid construction".

City to Seek Stand on Aid

(Continued from Page One) their obligations, then the cities are forced to look to the Federal government for assistance," he added. Kefauver, in a talk on "Cities and Congress," took the position that if the city and Federal government are both able to handle a particular job the city should be the one to do it, the United Press reported. Kefauver described the "Let's wait for Uncle Sam" attitude as an "unhealthy trend." More than 100 Federal agencies are now concerned with municipal activities, he said. However, Kefauver, who has announced as a candidate for the Senate, next year, saw housing as a "primary example of a problem requiring Federal aid." He scored Republican action that he said weakened housing measures and rent control. Kefauver said greater aid for veterans is needed. The answer to "Work or Want" is "Want to Work."

Loudspeaker Joins Taxpayer In Protest Against Co-ops

By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN United Press Staff Corespondent WASHINGTON, Nov. 13. (UP) The loudspeaker in the golden draped sanctum of the House Ways and Means Committee went blooie with the wail of a hungry bloodhound. "Just the squeal of some of the taxpayers," observed Rep. Bertrand W. Gearhart of Calif. "No suh," protested Garner M. Lester of Jackson, Miss. "Not loud enough to be our squeal." Taxpayer Lester was sore, with an indignation as broad as his southern accent. The trouble with this country, he said, is great business concerns going into competition with fellows like himself, calling themselves co-operatives, and paying no income taxes on a total trade of $7,182,185,000, billions that is, last year. What makes Lester and friends in the National Tax Equality Association angrier still is the fact that the government (the Farm Credit Administration) is spending $300,000 a year of their money, hiring 70 people to organize more cooperatives. Vicious Circle Lester and his fellow business men figure this is a vicious circle, with the government using tax money to persuade taxpayers to quit paying. This makes no sense to them and they are here in force to demand that the lawmakers make another law, and quickly. We might as well stick, for the purposes of this dispatch, to the troubles of cotton ginner Lester. He got up an 80-page book on co-operatives. Then he wrote a 40-page speech, read every word, and testified for another hour extemporaneously. As of this moment, he said, 32,246 co-operatives in America run railroads, peddle soap, refine gasoline, package tea, and sell spark plugs, corn-flakes, razor blades, and electric refrigerators. ("There's even a co-op lipstick," he said, removing his steel-rimmed glasses and rubbing his eyes. "And co-op toilet soap, with apple blossom perfume." These outfits ignore the income tax fence. They disagree violently with Lester, claim that if it weren't for them no telling what prices would be, and add that taxes to the average co-op are a matter of small importance. An elegant fight seems to be brewing and I only hope I don't get a bloody nose; or if it do, that I can buy a co-op handkerchief cheaply.

FREDDIE BLOWS A BIG BUBBLE

District Governor Robert Hal-grum of Ft. Myers told Coral Gables Lions that the local club compares very favorably in growth and activities with others throughout the nation as the Lions met at the Country Club yesterday. Fred Diestlehorst copped the prize in the main event of the meeting, a bubble-gum chewing contest. He won over semi-finalists James Oliver, L. W. Robinson Jr., and William Swain, making a bubble 12 inches in diameter. His prize was a large package of bubble gum. The resignation because of pressing duties of business of Harry Amidon as Liontamer was announced. W. C. Kinsey was appointed to succeed him and Larry Larson took Kinsey's place on the board of directors.

tax collectors, he continued, and hence they multiply like guinea pigs. Now the labor unions are setting up co-op groceries; next thing you know they'll be running co-op farms so there'll be no taxes paid from corn field to breakfast food bowl, he predicted. One of the Federals showed up at Jackson a while back, he said, announced that the government wasn't interested in taxpayers and set up a co-op cotton gin. Took some of Lester's business and thereby made off with profits he'd otherwise have included on his tax returns. "I've been a-fighting this thing since the last wah," cried Lester, whose accent thickened in direct proportion to his bitterness. "Ah'm not up heah foh fun." Could Go to Florida "When ah get home ah could call in my neighbors and say, 'Look heah, boys. Ah'm gonna' give you this gin as a co-op and you-all can hire me to manage it.'" Then ah could turn it ovah to an assistant and live in Florida." Lester paused. "Ah could do it," he roared. "An' why not? Because it jus' doesn't run in mah blood. That's the reason ah'm heah." It was here that the loudspeaker joined in the debate; Lester's anguish obviously was too much for the machinery. And I'd better make my apologies in advance, to witness Lester for whatever liberties he may believe I have taken with his southern accent and to the co-op gentlemen on the other side of

Adopts Stray Kitten

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (UP)-Goldilocks, a six-year-old Pomeranian, greeted her mistress holding a tiny kitten tenderly in her mouth. Mrs. W. B. Smith watched while the dog deposited her burden in her sleeping basket. "Goldilocks," Mrs. Smith said, "watches over the kitten as if she were the mother." Where Goldilocks got the kitten is a mystery. The neighborhood felines weren't expecting.
