When the application ‘for a lean to construct the bridges over the water gaps is granted, Key West will experience an era of prosperity. Then The Citizen will advoeate tearing down all structures that are dilapidated and consequently an eye- sore, and a general painting campaign to maké‘one of the oldest cities in Florida look like one of the newest. “Tt is ‘anictilite from Miami's point of view that its position is not at all strategic in relation to control of the Carib- bean and the alkimportant Panama canal,” the Sanford Herald states. “But where, it might be asked, could a more faverable location be found in the United States?”"— Miami News. The Citizen hastens to answer, right here at Key West, char- acterized by Admiral Bensen, as the Gib- raltar of America.

The reasan, a sound, solid one, for that assertion is this: during the last week Representative J. Mark Wilcox, | Henry H. Taylor and J. Lancelot Lester have arranged to place the bridge data ad- ministrator of the $3,300,000,000 fund of the public works program, and they feel confident that the money will be obtained from that source. Presentation of the data is pre- liminary to the formal application to be made by the bridge commission, the nam- ing of which by Governor Sholtz, The Citizen has been assured, is likely to occur at any moment. As nobody can foretell the future even in the most simple things of life, no- body can therefore declare positively that the Ioan will be obtained, but it can be said that there is every reason, and not even a minor drawback, that the loan will be granted. Because the unexpected’ sometimes happens, The Citizen does not say definite- ly that the loan will be obtained, though it has. been told by one who recently re- turned from Washington, “I’m sure we are going to get the money for the bridges.” That person said he would not be surprised in the least when the loan is granted, but, in. view of information that he got while in Washington, he will be as- tounded if the Public Works Committee does not allocate money for the construe- tion of the bridges. That view is corroborated by a dis- | patch in today’s Citizen from its Washing- ton correspondent. Whether it turns out to be correct or not, it is still a fact that more has been done in a substantial way in the last week to get the bridge money than during any. other time. In view of those conditions, there is less ground for péssimism now over the | bridge project than at any other time. Dur- ing. arts engl year there: have been dark When it appeared that the ee rae was in a hopeless tangle, but there are no dark moments now, This is the sunshine moment for opti- mism; this is the time when we _ should brush disquiet and suspense from our minds. If we are wrong in doing that, the present conditions do not warrant that circumstance. According to the dispatch, the data will be turned over to Colonel Sawyer some time this week, and the likelihood is that we will not have te wait leng to learn whether or not our confidence will be justi- fied. FATHER’S DAY Certain unknown persons, possibly the greeting card makers, have been try- ing hard to work up enthusiasm over Fa- ther’s Day. This year it fell on Sunday, June 18, and several governors issued proc- lamiations Urging observance of the day, but there was ne very marked response to the movement. Generally father is taken as a matter of course, and not a great deal of senti- ment attaches to him or his job. The hest part of it is that he doesn’t expect folks to make much of a fuss over the mere faet that he is a father. He would feel rather foolish to hear people singing senti- mental songs about him, although he likes te hear them sung about mother. Speaking of songs, a recent writer says: “Phe most popular themes are in- dicated by such words as ‘mother,’ ‘sweet- heart” and ‘home’.” Father is usually good in songs only when he is comedy. And we suspect that he generally feels as if he were playing a comedian’s part on Father's Day, if: anyome reminds nd thet Gace 1 nach. 4 Sey: Mohammedans have a peat preverb whieh says: “A guest is a present from God.” With us a guest is often a pest. Upon becoming naturalized some aliens Anglicize or shorten their names. But a Greek whe applied for citizenship in Newark spurned the suggestion of a clerk that a little shortening of his cognomen might be advisable. He said Uncle Sam would have to take him with his fall name, which is Constantine Pappadimitrillou- poules. fand Mrs. Thomas H.
