On account of bombs bursting in air, at fact will make cave-men out of us ain during war times. - We may not be too proud to fight but too wise. Wisdom comes from ex- perience. We got that in 1917. Our old enemy Przemysl, (pronounced : Pzhegamish-l if that’s any help) a place that belonged to Russia during the World -War but was incorporated with Poland in the Versailles Treaty, is bobbing up again. =This time, of course, as a friend of ‘the Allies. Seymour Weiss, one of the three prin- cipal heirs to the powerful political ma- “ chine left by Huey Long has finally be- come enmeshed in the web of the law and will have to serve time in the penitentiary. Weiss was not so wise after all, and honesty remains the best policy. 2 The column “Key West in Days Gone “By” announced a surprise party for Brax- “ton B. Warren on reaching his 62nd birth- ~day; ten years ago. A few days back The Citizen gave an account of a delightful | _dinner in his honor on his 72nd birthday. This.column anticipates the ‘pleasure of -chronicling County Commissioner War- -¥en’s 82nd birthday anniversary 10 years hence. : At the last session of Congress it de- “gidetl, after long debate, to place em-| bargoes on munitions and implements of “war. Now President Roosevelt has con- wened Congress to debate the question egair, with his objective to have the em- “bargoes lifted, and a new neutrality law enacted, permitting the sale of arms and ammunition to the belligerents on a cash and carry basis. Let America retain its embargo and sell goods only to neutrals | =-former customers of England, «France and Germany. It is the surest way to keep us out of war,.and the most profitable, ! other cities in the U. S. What j are those \ above. .They’re in favor of «a change— | | about our city government’’—but, | turn the tide of the election. | zen of Key West—every property owner TO WIN—ALL MUST REGISTER! And vote, too! Referring, of course, to the coming |.City Election on November 14. One hears this statement. “I don’t vote in municipal elections. It’s just a waste of time and effort”. Arother states—“It’s all cut and dried. You just can’t change things here in Key West”. Again. “Look who’s running. Might as welt not vote as cast a ballot for that | bunch”. And so on and so on. Ad infinitum. A repetition of conditions that have been duplicated hundreds of times in as many is im- portant, though, is that despite statements of this kind, live, aggregsive efforts on the part of civi¢-minded citizens have won out. The same results are hoped for in the com- ing election. There is a theoretical vote of about 4,500 in Key West. there are a few more than 3,000 on the registration books. two or three hundred names added to the list before election day, that is, if nothing is done to awaken a big share of the mar- ginal citizens to the absolute necessity of registering and voting. Marginal citizens, in this that traditionally home”.* They make statements like “stay at something done trag- ically, they don’t do anything about it. It’s a sure bet that the “usual type” “sure, we'd like to see candidates will see to it that their friends | will register—and vote, too. To counter- act that condition, and it is possible be- | lieve you us, organization of support for “right type” candidates should be ef- fected. The Citizen understands that such a movement is under way. It be- lieves that the sooner evidence of that procedure is brought into light, the better. Five more weeks remain in which to Every citi- and taxpayer—every church member and organization supporter—must take it upon himself to register for the election. It will be to the everlasting shame of those per- sons who do not care enough about con- ditions here that can be corrected by vot- ing in a dependable slate of candidates— if developments show that their names are not even on the registration books, Too much depends upon the future welfare of the city of Key West to side- track this civic duty. The Citizen hopes to hear that 4,500 | names are on the books come election day. Hearing ofthat fact—the knowledge of a | “new day” to come will be in our con- sciousness. OUR CHANGING BODIES If you weigh yourself today, and then weigh yourself three weeks from now, your weight will probably show change. But, according to Dr. Adolph of the University of Rochester, at least 93 per cent of the real substance of your body | will have been changed in the meantime. _ For, he asserts, the water content ofa human body changes every 21 days, on an average, and the body is 93 per cent water. He also: figures that: the nitrogen of the./ body, which is the chief element in the chemical composition of muscle, is renewed every 290 days, while the iron component is changed in a slightly longer period. It used to be thought that the actual substance of one’s body was completely changed about every seven years, but Dr. Adolph’s researshes indicate that the time of renewal is much less than that. So, when you look in your mitror you may see what appears to be the same ob- ject you saw there a year or two before. But the real substance will be almost en- tirely different, and the change will gen- erally be for the worse rather than for the better. “PUBLIC ENEMIES” Some time ago we thought a criminal had gained some kind of eminence by be- ing included among those on the list of “public enemies” on file in the office of the Department of Justice. It seems that we were mistaken. The number of criminals now on the roll as “public enemies” totals 14,187. They have been convicted 26,205 times for crimes, including 761 kidnapings, 460 homicides, 5,391 robberies, 3,628 larcen- cies, 2,733 burglaries, 706 forgeries, 132 blackmailings, 1,001 auto thefts and 693 embezzlements. : At present, it is said, | There may be another | instance, | THE KEY WEST CITIZEN | | HURRAY!
