FREE ZONES While manufacturers generally have opposed the establishment of free zones in the past, because they considered them inimical to their interests, this innovation may now be considered more intensely by the government for the reason that free zones, by encouraging and_ simplifying foreign trade operations, will undoubtedly tend to do its part in the recovery pro- gram. Other nations find free zones helpful, why should not;our foreign trade relations he benefited by them? This: is \an .ex- perimental stage in our commercial life and the time ripe for the Introduction of a venture that. promises fruitful rewards, - What free zones are and ‘the purpose of their introduction is not generally un- derstood, even shipping meh’ Have’ butea vague idea what they are. Recently the New York Times in its maritime section gave a succinct explanation of a free zone and its functions in a series of questions and answers. These were reproduced in the Congressional Record of Apri) 3, this year, by Representative Emanuel Celler of New York. They are in part: What is a foreign-trade zone? A foreign-trade zone is an area within a port of entry carefully segregated from customs territory and free from all customs | tariffs and regulations. What can be done in a denied zone? Foreign merchandise can be unloaded, stored, exhibited, broken up, repacked, as- sembled, distributed, sorted, refined, graded, cleaned, mixed with foreign | domestic merchandise, or otherwise mani- pulated, and shipped either to foreign countries or into the United States. What advantages of a_ foreign-trade zone are not available under the present | bonded warehouse or drawback system? The principal advantage is the eli- mination of all customs formalities neces- sary under the present system of bonded warehouses and drawbacks by avoiding or j others o making entry, paying duty and premium for bonds, cartaze, expenses for customs ; supervision of cperations, securing with- drawal permits, etc. Domestic products may be combined with imported goods. Merchandise may+be exhibited. Foreign- trade zones invite and simplify such opera- tions, while the present system necessary makes them difficult. Does the establishment of foreign- trade zones affect the tariff country or its complete enforcement? No. The operation of foreign-trade zones has no bearing whatever upon policies of protection or free trade, cause, so far as our tariff laws are try, and merchandise entering the country from a foreign-trade zone must, as if di- rectly received from abroad, comply with | all requirements of the tariff law. ‘ Can foreign-trade zones operate with- out imperiling the protection or of a country: i.e., can smuggling vented? Many y revenues be pre- ” experience trade zones abr prove that with proper operating agencies and adequate barriers and guards, smuggling does not occur. - What governmental supervision is cus- tomary and necessary in the operation of foreign-trade zones? All operations in a foreign-trade zone are strictly supervised by federal customs and tariff officials, under stringent rules and regulations to insure proper conduct. | This supervision is based reports of operations within the zone, ships’ mani- fests, the entry and withdrawal of mer- chandise from the zone, ete. Who would use foreign-trade zones? American importers, exporters, and manufacturers, as well foreign mer- chants. What benefits would result from the operation of foreign-trade zones and who would benefit thereby? Importers, exporters, wholesalers, job- bers, manufacturers, rail and ocean car- riers would benefit by an‘increased volume of business. Importers could exhibit for- eign goods, store merchandise until sold in the United States of America or abroad, mix with domestic products or recondition, sort or repack before shipping abroad. Ex- porters would avoid payment of duties and expenses on imported goods to be re- exported. Domestic manufacturers using foreign materials would always have stocks of such materials available, could buy in larger quantities ordinarily at a lower price, and store their products in the zone until sold in either domestic or foreign trade. Steamship lines would benefit by in- creased traffic, thereby aiding our Amer- ican merchant marine. Labor would bene- fit by increased employment due to new manufacturing and a larger volume of goods to be unloaded, handled, repacked, reshipped, etc. Are foreign-trade zones operated by government or by private individuals un- der government supervision? Foreign-trade zones may be operated either by private or public corporations: ie, divisions of government. * Where would foreign-trade zones be licated? og alge eG In any port of entry, either seaboard or inland, provided the applicant is trust- worthy and willing to comply with all gov- ernment requirements of the secretaries of commerce and the treasury. Would the establishment of foreign- trade zones aid in recovery from the de- pression and thereby form an important part in the forciyn-trade recovery — pro gram? Americ: on as the prosperity and the re-employ- ment of labor on the maintenance and ex- tension of America’s foreign trade, includ- ing both import and export. The facilities of foreign-trade zones would, therefore, by encouraging and simplifying foreign-trade operat serve to aid the recovery pro- gram advocated by government officials. nusiness realizes pendence « Old men lies by authority and f Old Proverb 1 are deemed fools 21ouths and prove it. » confirmed optimis 2 new ciwpus act some Then t “IT never take convineed that my client PACE? delays, trouble and expense connected with | is in policy of a! | he- con- | cerned, these zones are outside the coun- | of foreign- j de- | y travelers may ten j ' THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ! i} TUFSDAY, APRIL 24, 1934. —— The Hitherto Unpublished Manuscript Kept Secret 85 Years | Jesus’ Encounter with the Doctors in the Temple and | | His Lonely Days in the Wilderness Are Re- i called in the Second Chapter. ’ Editor's Note—The inconsistencies in punctuation and spelling which appeared in the original manuscript, intended by Dickens only for the eyes of his children and not for the printer, have been followed in the present publication. CHAPTER THE SECOND. HEN King Herod was dead, an Angel came to Joseph again, and said he might now go to Jerusalem, and | not be afraid for the Childs’ sake, So Joseph and Mary, and her Son Jesus Christ (who are commonly called The Holy Family) travelled towards Jerusalem; but hearing on the way that King Herod’s son was the new King, and fearing that he, too, might want to hurt the Child, they turned out of the way, and went to live in Nazareth. | They lived there, until Jesus Christ was twelve years old. o. ow ‘THEN Joseph and Mary went to Jerusalem to attend a Religious Feast which used to be held in those days, in the Temple of Jerusalem, which was a great church or cathedral ; and they took Jesus Christ with them, and when the Feast was over, they travelled away from Jerusalem, back towards their own home in Nazareth, with a great many of. their friends and neighbours. For people used, | then, to travel a great many together, for fear of robbers; the roads not being so safe and well guarded as they are now, and travelling being much more difficult altogether, | than it now is. They travelled on, for a whole day, and never knew that Jesus Christ was not with them; for the company | being so large, they thought He was somewhere among | the people, though they did not see Him. But finding that | He was not there, and fearing that He was lost, they | turned back to Jerusalem in great anxiety to look for Him. They found Him, sitting in the Temple, talking about the Goodness of God, and how we should all pray to him, | with some learned men who were called Doctors. They | were not what you understand by the word “Doctors” now; they did not attend sick people; they were scholars and clever men. And Jesus Christ shewed such knowledge in what He said to them, and in the questions He asked them, that they were all astonished. Hl | He went with Joseph and Mary home to Nazareth, | when they had found him, and lived there until He was thirty or thirty-five years old. * * . AT that time there was a very good man indeed, named John, who was the son of a woman named Elizabeth —the cousin of Mary. And people being wicked, and vio- | lent, and killing each other, and not minding their duty | towards God, John (to teach them better) went about the country preaching to them and entreating them to be bet- ter men and women. And because he loved them more than himself, and didn’t mind himself when he was doing them good, he was poorly dressed in the skin of a camel, and ate little but some insects called locusts, which he | found as he travelled; and wild honey, which the bees left in the Hollow Trees. You never saw a locust, because they belong to that country near Jerusalem, which is a great way off. So do camels, but I think you have seen a camel? At all events they are brought over here, sometimes; and if you would like to see one, I will shew you one. There was a River, not far from Jerusalem, called the River Jordan; and in this water, John baptized those peo- ple who would come to him, and promise to be better. A great many people went to him in crowds, Jesus Christ went too. But when John saw Him, John said, “Why should I baptize you, who are so much better than I!” Jesus Christ made answer, “Suffer it to be so now,” So John baptized Him. And when He was baptized, the sky opened, and a beautiful bird like a dove came flying down, and the voice of God, speaking up in Heaven, was heard | to say “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased!” Jesus Christ then went into a wild and lonely country called the Wilderness, and stayed there forty days and “The Boy Jesus in the Temple,” a reproduction of the world-famous painting by. J. M. Hein- rich Hofman. forty nights, praying that He might be of use to men and women, and teach them to be better, so that after their deaths, they might be happy in Heaven. ar ar HEN He came out of the Wilderness, He began to cure sick people by only laying His hand upon them; for | God had given Him power to heal the sick, and to give sight to the blind, and to do many wonderful and solemn things of which I shall tell you more bye and bye, and which are called “The Miracles” of Christ. I wish you would remember that word, because I shall use it again, and I should like you to know that it means something which is very wonderful and which could not be done without God’s leave and assistance. The first Miracle which Jesus Christ did, was at a place called Cana, where He went to a Marriage Feast with Mary His Mother. There was no wine; and Mary told Him so. There were only six stone water-pots filled with water. But Jesus turned this water into wine by only lifting up His hand; and all who were there, drank of it. For God had given Jesus Christ the power to do such wonders; and He did them, that people might know He was not a common man, and might believe what He taught them, and also believe that God had sent Him. And many people, hearing this, and hearing that He cured the sick, did begin to believe in Him; and great crowds followed Him in the streets and on the roads, wherever He went.
