WHOSE BUSINESS IS THIS? CILIA LALLA LAA x. ® : N : : : ; : : : : . , \ , : . A special dispatch to a metropolitan newspaper in the East tells of the death of an 88-year-old recluse, who was found in an unheated shack, a victim of exposure. The incident can be duplicated in other states many times. The question arises as to society’s responsibility, if any? Should government, as society’s agent, be blamed if an old man—past the age of work—dies during a blizzard. Should any- body be concerned that such a fate is ex- perienced, occasionally, by women and children? What are we to do when we know that these things occur during the spend- ing of millions of dollars to relieve human suffering? What are we to think of human beings, with boasted religion and _ civil- ization, who apparently care so little for others that old people, without relatives or means, die alone in the cold? These questions are not asked cy- nically but to remind us of the need for something better than present methods. At least a start has been made in federal and state legislation and good citizens should } see that the task is completed. | | | \ | | | ' { | | 1 ' i WEATHER CONDITIONS One of the most unique and! thoroughly piecasing recitals ever ; given in Key West was presented ‘jasc evening in the high school aua.torium by Glen Ellison, bari- tone, and Miss Alta Hill, pianist.

NEUTRALITY LAW PROBLEMS WHEELBARROWS, Steel body on a wood frame, Each $6.45 Let’s get that fool idea out of our heads that Roo-evelt may be the last presi- dent of the United States. This country is too level-headed to change its government } from a republic to something untried, al- though the present administration is giv- ing us a taste in experimentation, most of which is not to our liking. “My only political plans at pre- sent are to bring the Democratic party back into power the next! election,” stated Franklin D. Roosevelt, who is spending several days in Key West with a party of friends on the Yacht Larooco. “My work is building up and strengthening the Democratic’ party for the congressional elee-| tions.” Apparently, the question of neutrality is proving to be a bigger problem than most Congressmen thought it was when Congress undertook to restate a policy to keep the United States out of future wars. { At one time, it seemed possible for =e | certain advocates of a policy of self-denial Key West, island city of Florida, now | in the interest of peace, to pass legislation begins “La Semana Alegre,” its annual; providing for an embargo on the export of G.

However, before the legislation could ed, there arose a mighty conflict of voices so that any change in present legis- lation invited prolonged debate.
