The “Big Apple” will be done under the direction of Gerald Pinder, local dance instruc-| tor, and John Pritchard and his popular dance band. The club endeavoring to make this one of the biggest introduc- tory dances of the year has secur-) ed 10 of the best dancers in the city in order to put on this sen- sational performance correctly. Those who will be in the “Big Ap- ple” are: Lionel Cobo and Madge Sands; Carlos Garcia and Lydia Garcia W. C, Maloney and Mar- garet White; Kermit and Olga Marrero; Jesus Carmona and Joan MacMullen; Orlando Caraballo and Edna Mae Carabal- lo; Gene Griener and Dollis Bur- Education Week Is Observed A short and appropriate pro- gram in observance of Education Week was rendered by pupils of Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and Eighth Grades of St. Joseph’s School yesterday. Opening number was the Flag Salute, followed by “For God and Country,” an enlightening drama pn Communism, explaining its doc- trines, why it is spreadng so rap- dly throughout the world, and what can be done to combat it. Another number was “Soldiers of Peace,” a playlet correlating with the President’s Proclamation, Peace”, Day. Though on a much lower plane, it depicted clearly to the youth of today, the citizens of tomorrow, the sadness of war and the glories ef peace. A recitation, “How to Catch a! Gird,” showed that the best way te do so'is to rather than to destroy it—as you listen to its melody, you've got him. After the singing of “America,” Rev. William J. Reagan, S. J., con- gratulated tho boys enthusiastic- ally praised the study of the great evil of the day, noted with pleas- ure the spirit which guides them to preserve bird life, and above all encouraged them to foster with all their might the love and prac- tice of peace—the nation-wide question of the day.

SOFIA DE LA CUESTA MONROE THEATER Gene Raymond-Ann Sothern in THE KEY WEST CITIZEN You and Your Nation's Controls Slipped By ERNEST MINOR PATTERSON President, American Academy Recent events illustrate both the dangers and the difficulties of controls through monetary and banking de- vices. Only about a"year ago business was on the up- grade and the security mar- kets were ad- vancing. The excess reserves of the banks were rising. There was widespread and proper concern lest the expan- sion get out of hand, Two fears were expressed. One was that stock and com- modity prices should advance to much highe: unc undesirable levels. The other was that bond prices should decline with disastrous effects for the banks and insurance com- panies and for the credit of the gov- ernment. Attemps were made to correct this. The reserve r-quirements of the banks were increased until by last May they had been doubled. Starting in December 1936 imported gold was placed by the Treasury in an “inactive” fund to prevent its swelling bank reserves and thus add- ing to the base upon which bank credit ‘might be expanded. Also Gov- ernor Eccles of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors announced an “easy money” policy, i.e., the inten- tion of keeping interest rates low. This was to keep costs of business borrowing down. For some of these actions much was to be said. It was better to curtail the excess reserves -before bank credit expanded than afterwards. The continued importation of gold was adding so rapidly to bank reserves that the “inactive gold” policy may have been wise. The writer of this column does not object in principle to efforts at monetary contrcl. But some of the limitations seem clear. Prices of commodities and se- curities continued to rise. Commodity prices began to weaken last spring but because speculative accounts had been over-extended cause monetary cont tive. Bond prices. we: effec- |. While (Address questions to the au Affairs of Political and Social Science stock prices declined somewhat they rose again until in ‘August an abrupt decline started. Again monetary controls were at- i tempted. The federal reserve banks | reduced their rediscount rates to new and record low levels. About $300,- 000,000 was released from the “in- active” fund and placed in the banks. It was indicated that the federal reserve banks might start open mar- ket operations, ie, buy bonds and thus place more cash in the banks. Thus far these efforts to ease the market and to check price declines have been ineRective. The goyaverd movement of both co) ies and securities has ol ia Hasty conclusions should not be drawn but one or two observations seem justified. One is that monetary controls will probably be continued. The idea is by no means new, Redis- count rates, open market operations and other devices have been used for many years and more or less ef- fectively. Recently the setting up of huge stabilization funds (for exam- ple, $2,000,000,000 in the United States and £350,000,000 in Great Britain), centralization of banking direction andthe closer relations between cen- tral banks and government treasurigg are new elements. Two comments are warranted. Monetary and banking manipulations have an influence but ‘this inflbence is not apt to be very effective in the short run and at times when other forces are powerful. There is instead the possibility that by the time they really influence the market situation, conditions will have changed. If op- posite policies are then followed, they may operate slowly, if at all, and have their effects after the reason for them has disappeared. Another observation is that the in- creasingly close connection between the central banks and the govern- ment treasuries creates a temptation to use the money and banking con- trols to help government financing. Again it should be said that there are limits within which such help may be proper. But it is not desirable that government financing should be too easy or rates too low. There are times when government borrowing should be made harder. This is one of them. As yet the recent attempts to ease the market seem to have been both ineffective and unwise. thor care of this newspaper) ANNOUNCE LOW ~ PRICE ON DODGE Auto owners and prospective owners, have shown great enthus- i iasm over the 1938 Dodge which was displayed in this city about 10 days ago by Navarro, Inc., local Dodge-Plymouth dealer.
