Farley, in Paris, predicted a democratic victory in 1940 previded the party is united. He seems to sense that it is not. Mr. velt has stated the democratic standard bearer must be a liberal, like himself, or he will take a walk. Other leaders have made similar threats. hold things together; but party bolts have the opposite effect. Ernest Hemingway’s long-awaited “The Fifth Column” is marching toward Broadway, where it will be presented, it is | claimed, by the end of the year. Our fel- low townsman was a Loyalist sympathizer and a Spanish stage preview, acclaimed by the public, was rendered in Madrid some ‘time before its surrender. Whether the script will be changed now that the Spanish Civil War has resulted adversely to Hemingway's conclusions is not known, but a play of that nature is oppertune in the development of present events, gh up much more} Roose- | Bolts:serve the purpose to | | | | section are at Puerto Rico-and at Panama. ‘tion.

These | projects required vast sums for construc- ! to settle’ Political considerations were largely responsible for the decision of Con- gress to locate these defense projects at Jacksonville, Tampa and elsewhere—in- stead of at or near Key West, the gateway to the Gulf, at the point nearest the future trouble zone. Entirely overlooked by Congress was the fact that Key West has extensive naval and military plants, ready for the national defense. The naval station facilities, the submarine base, the fine harbor, Fort Tay- lor’s anti-aircraft and coast artillery be quickly and economically -utilized for that saw the good cards dealt to less fa- vored places. However, that is water over the dam. The na- throats. The freedom of the seas again is a vital point in the international scene. There is talk of sending American naval vessels to Europe to convoy to safety the ships carrying Am- ericans out of the war zones. No matter how hard this nation may strive to remain neutral, something serious may occur to upset the hope of all Americans that we may stay out of the latest war to end all wars. After all, this sovereign nation can- | not permit any foreign country to drive our ships from the seas. Anything can and may happen. What must this country do to be pre- pared against such eventualities? Speed ourselves so strong on the land, in the air and on the sea that no nation or group of nations shall dare to offend our dignity or disrupt our freedom and American system of government. Key West is at the entrance to the Gulf of Mexico. It is in a commanding and strategic position. It has extensive naval ways has been recognized as of first im- portance in previous national emergencies. facilities here should be utilized to the full at once in the It would be folly to es- tablish a defense system that did not in- clude Key West. It is time we began bombarding our officials at Washington with demands that this exposed southern- most point be protected adequately in or- der that the whole of the United States may be made immune from hostile attack from all directions, THE DESTRUCTIVE RAT Public health authorities estimate that the actual loss caused by rats in the United States amounts to $400,000,000 a year, of which about one-half is in food- stuffs and the rest in the destruction of other property. The number of rats engaged in these depredations is estimated at 120,000,000, or about equal to the country’s human Besides the destructiveness of the rat is its constant menace to health through the transmission of disease, especially bubonic plague, which is spread -entirely by fleas which infest infected rats. While the disease has been held in check in coun- tries employing. ;preventive measures, bu- bonic plague killdd more than 11,000,000 The Public Health Service declares that if the extraordinarily prolific breed- ing of rats were not partially controlled by natural enemies, disease and the canni- balistic tendencies of the ‘animal itself, they would soon overrun the world and ex- terminate man by depriving him of his | sources of food. Like many other ever-present menaces to property and health, the rat appears to be taken for granted, and seldom is any concerted effort made with a view ‘to its extermination.
