THE KEY WEST CITIZEN z Pomona WIA, always sock: the trate and print it THE EVERGLADES PARK Facts relating to the plan to establish an Everglades National Park laid before the citizens of Moriroe county | that they may decide whether they want | | to give a large portion of their territory ' | to bring about consummation of the proj- | ect. The need for an educational cam- | paign is evident from a reading of the re= cent correspondence between H, E. Day, | president of the Key West Lions club, and Dr. A. W. Ziebold,, chairman of the Ever- | gladés Park Association. In his letter Day outlined a number | of objections that had’ been raiséd in Mon- roé county against the project: In brief, | they were that the county is not repre- | sented in the official family of the as- | sociation, that the county authorities have | not been consulted as to proposed boun- | daries of the park, that the county has had | no definite assurance that commercial fishing and sponging will not be prohibited | in the park area, that the inclusion of the | bay bottoms and Thousand Islands is not | necessary or advisable, and that Monroe | county cannot afford to lose the taxes on | so large a portion of her area. | Responding, Dr. Ziebold declares that, | in general, there is no foundation for | many of the impressions abroad in Monroe | county regarding the park. He states the | county has been represented in ‘the as- sociation and on the park commission for faction or class; ange do its. utmost: for the public welfare; never tolerate corruption or injustice; denounee vite and praise virtue. commexid good done by individual or organ- ization; tolerant of: others’ rights, views and opinions; print only news that will elevate and not contaminate the reader; never com- promise with principle. IMPROVEMENTS FOR KEY WEST ADVOCATED BY THE CITIZEN Water and Sewerage. Comipreheusive City Plan (Zoning). Hotels and Apartments. Bathing Pavilion. Airports—Land and Sea. Consolidation of County and City Governments. Every citizen of Key West ought to be willing to do some community work. How- ever, like all other places, the bulk of pub- lie work falls on a few individuals. The surrender of Bulgaria, September 29, 1918, started the end of the last World War; the surrender of Czechoslovakia by | the British and French may be the begin- ning of another World War. There is one thing certain, if the democratic nations fight the autocratic states, they will know that they have the sympathy of the United States. That is all they should and can expect. t . The trouble with awarking ‘in modern office.is that, opt ‘about: the time you, set- tle down t mié,” goad hard’ work, somebody Weis’ ‘Wie door, Someone has said that thé'sWedtest' sound: to’ the | haman ear wa¥-the khdck atthe door, but | evidently that fellow had plenty of leisure | on his hands. Also, whether busy or idle, | the knock at the door aside from being a | bother at certain times, unless one’s con- | science is clear, may have an ominous sound. It may be the sheriff or the un- expected return of friend husband. Hitler and Mussolini are Fascists, and | the basis of Fascist ideology, as formulated | by Mussolini himself, is War. No credence | can be given Hitler's statement that he has | no more territorial expansion desires after | 1 ‘sbeen made fishing and sponging will | permitted by the national park service and Vt | are our ambassadors of good will (a number of years, that assurances: have be | that the proposed boundaries of the park do not now take in all of Key Largo and | leaves the county the land which has been industrially developed, the larger portion of Largo, The Citizen believes these and other facts should be presented FORCEFULLY before the public, so that there may be no | further delay in this matter. It is probable all the main Monroe objections can be re- moved by CLEAR AND UNDERSTAND- tion and from the national park service. | That would cléar the way for creation of | | the park .and its improvement by the park | service. Park would be a great asset to Monroe ‘county and Key West. It will bring many | thousands of persons fo the Florida keys who might not otherwise come in this di- rection. National parks in all sections of | the country annually attract millions of tourists. BE WORLD-MINDED It is necessary today to teach our children tolerance and sympathy for others in becoming world-minded and less biased by opinions of embittered oldsters. Chil- dren realize the importance of world trade through their sttdy of geography, its na- tions, peoples and commodities. They are aware of the importance in our livés of these goods from foreign shores. They are appreciative of what other nations offer in the way of literature, art and music, which is the property of the world in its beauty, rather than the possession of one country. Travel books are widely read by our young and that is worthwhile reading. To be sure that all literature that is placed before hem is unbiased“tnd free of propaganda | is most necessaty ih cultivating a'trne ap- preciation for world-mindedness. There is a great difference between propaganda | and news and it is often very hard to dis- tinguish between the two. It takes more | than a childish mind to separate them and | should be handled by old heads, and level ores! Our boys and girls of Key West and neighborliness and it is in their hands that lies our future. We must show them the need of understanding the rights of in- dividuals and the need of love and har- mony in dealing with nations as well as with men. They must realize that inter- he acquires Sudetenland. Fascism does not believe either in the possibility or the | benefit of perpetual peace, and any doc- | trine that emanates from the ‘preconceived | postulate of peace is extraneous to Fasc- | ism. As Mussolini says in his Fascist Manifesto: “War alone carries to the maximum of tension all human energies and stamps with a seal of nobility the peo- | ples who have the virtue of facing it.” Un- der such an ideology Europe will remain a tinder box and in constant danger or threat of war, The question arises whether the democratic nations shall attempt to destroy | this menace to civilization now, before it has asshmed its maximum strength, or await a more conveniént day, and before it is too late. national affairs affect them and to admire world heroes of peace rather than of. war. | This nation is a democracy and a country able to instruct its children in the ways of nations not called demovractes.’ ‘But to do this it is necessary to be-*cautious and aware.of both sides of every discussion. Better still, drill into the young mind the fact that religion and government cannot be separate states, they must go hand in hand—no nation is great without religion, and our children have been taught the principles of love and faith.

The |bicycle was missing one day and |the next a colored boy came to offer to sell him another one for $5. This one did not suit and the little negro, who. said his name iwas Sampson, went on, his way. Yesterday he came with another wheel, which he offered to sell ‘for the same price. Either of the | wheels were worth $15 or $20, Mr. | Roberts reported. His offer to accompany the boy home to look at another wheel was evaded by | the would-be salesman. dent, said Mr. Roberts, that there is a regular gang of these boys | stealing these wheels, and look- | jing for an opportunity to sell ithem to unsuspecting parties. | "There has been as many as 100 |reported stolen in the rceent past. | | Executive Committee will be held jtomorrow night at 8 o'clock in |Democratic headquarters, corner lof Duval and Southard streets, | | Judge J.
