Bushi Manager | *rom The Citizen Building | | AN INDIVIDUAL PROBLEM Efforts to create an effective mos- quito control system in Key West and Monroe county is not alone a problem for public officials to undertake. There must be the closest and heartiest kind of co- operation from the citizens of this area. About all public officials, with the funds available, can do is tell the general Corner Greene and Ann Streets Only Daily Newspaper in Key West and Monroe County -atered at Key West, Florida, as second class matter Member of the Associated Press Re Associated Press is exclusively ‘entitled to use fer republication of all_ news dispatches’ credited to it-or not otherwise credited In this paper and aiso the lecal news published here. pests within bounds. Every public-spirited cistern free of mosquitoes and to clear up | empty tin cans and other receptacles on his lot to prevent them breeding in stagnant | water. It is interesting to note that since the beginning of the present drive against the mosquito workmen and inspectors em- | ployed by the city and the WPA have placed 939 larvae-eating minnows in cis- terns and other mosquito breeding places. Approximately 200 inspections have been completed and a considerable number of breeding places have been discovered. eoreee These have been treated in various ways, $$ ________ | while workmen were destroying several Elo ee ae | hundred cans in which the pests breed. | — FOR KEY WEST | These are important steps, but must !

The cost is small because a Airports—Land and Sea, very small quantity of oil will do the trick. Consolidation of County and City It will be impossible for the few inspectors Governments. now employed to cover the same ground again and again if any progress is to be made in bringing about effective control. Property owners: and householders should take up the fight where the inspectors leave off. Aside from the personal relief mos- quito control will give our citizens, it should be remembered that many winter visitors and tourists come from sections where*there are no mosquitos and there- fore are not tolerant in their attitude to- ward the pests. Some folks are made Santa Claus reports that he is.getting urgent messages. every day now. Most employers would. prefer to have profit-sharing. with employees of their business, if such a thing as loss-sharing could also be introduced. If we heeded the poem, “Woodman, Spare That Tree,” we would have no more woodpulp and no more paper. So we can- not always follow good advice. everyone is annoyed and bothered by it. If Key West cannot’ control the mos- quito she might as well go out of business as a tourist and resort center. Hundreds of our property owners are preparing their properties in various ways to handle. the trade and service demands of a large tourist influx each season. They should be. vitally concerned in ridding the city of a pest that drives tourists away as surely as water puts out fire. It is noticeable that the cameramen in taking pictures of celebrities always catch them with open mouths, either while in the act of taking in food or expelling their persiflage. Don’t they ever quit eating or talking? According to. psychologists, it is the German’s and the Italian’s profound sense of national inferiority which seeks com- pensation in ruthless imperial dreams and unlimited aggressiveness. It seems a rea- sonable conclusion and the same mentality may be found in individuals, A STUDY OF YOUTH Harvard University, it is announced, will undertake a long-time study of “the forces that have produced normal young men.” The idea, it seems, is to study se- ected students who will voluntarily investi- gate heredity, constitution, family life, school life and other elements pertaining to the make-up of the individual. This is not a bad idea. It would be profitable for all of us to know more about the many factors that enter into our composite being. By knowing more of the past we might be able to erect safeguards against certain dangers in the future. As it is there is a tendency on all sides to criticize youth when, if the truth were known, the criticism ought to be directed | against the elders and the ancestors of the | individual. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, of Colum- bia University, expresses the idea when he says that the family, the church and the school have weakened during the past fifty years in their influence upon youth and that, instead of making the youth of the land the butt of our criticism we should direct some of it as the elders. Talk of a truce between the Presi- dent and big business is merely: another “breathing spell”. The chips will be fly- ing by the time Congress convenes, as dif- ferences between those leaning to the right, and those leaning to- the left, are as wide as ever, The year before the building ‘of the Overseas Highway the building figures for Key West was $6,375. The completion of the highway has jacked up the amount to $73,395 according to the Key West Citi- zen. And of course Key Westers are smil- | ing.—Times-Union. In fact laughing out loud, In his column Walter Winchell says: | “Some months ago this column (Win-| chell’s) itemed that Douglas Aircraft | would climb high. It was then $8...
