Cosme de la Torriente, Cuban secre- tary of state, president of the; Veterans of athe War for Independence and one-time Cuban ambassador to the United States, has returned to the Italian minister _ Havana, a deccration he received about twenty years ago from the Italian govern- | ment, “because I am unable any longer to wear it with pride.” That’s a fine gesture, Senor Torriénte; and we would like to see our own Colonel Lindbergh return to Ger- many the decoration he received there.

And, by the same token— much grief often comes from the effects of a lack of interest shown towards a project aiter it is started. A case in poirt is the Zoning Ordi- » how a law of the city following nany hard months of study, prep- n ani guidance through processes cf law enactment by the Zoning Board. A big majority of Key West residents are heartily in favor of the zoning provi- sions now on the city books. All want to see restrictions placed on certain type buildir in certain areas. sides was expressed upon the release of news that the law had been passed which would automatically encourage much building of preferred-type residence in the city. One imagine, however, the chagrin and bewilderment felt by mem- bers of the Zoning Board, whose job was ended, to hear yesterday that a major vio- lation of the Zoning Ordinance had come he attention of the city council. Here, , is where we bring out the import- ence of seeing the zoning job through to completion. Laws are just as good as ‘the enfore- agencies wish them to be. dn the case the Zoning law, it is a fact that no ma- chinery had beer set up to guard the law from violations. Hence, no enforcing agency entered into the picture. Therefor, it appears of utmost importance that the council act immediately to set up the neces- sary enforcement provisions which will viola- can ing oi Recognition of the importance of the | subject was at hand at this week’s council | meeting when a committee was appointed | to consider removal of the present build- | ing inspector set-up. | tion service is needed for this work which | would mean employment of someone able | A full-time inspec- and willing to become thoroughly ac- quainted with the zoning provisions in all | areas of the city. The Citizen hopes that the committee | will act quickly on this important subject. | It is hard to imagine the psychological ef- | fect on the populace if they hear of other If such should occur; the law would stand in imminent danger of falling into a classification of unenforceable laws | because of the precedents set by the viola- | tions. Years and years of bringing to completion one of the best projects undertaken in Key West must not be thrown overboard. Especially when it is seen that a few simple steps are all that are needed to complete the picture. NO REGARD FOR NEWS The readers of the daily newspapers are a bit impatient with the war news that comes te them every morning. They want to know what is going on. Moreover, they are tired of the pussy- footing in the communiques that hint, at heavy fighting and tell us nothing. In brief, the reading public wants to know, | now and with certainty, just how the war is going to be won and by whom. Italy’s declaration of war ‘has been followed by close watch for “important” news of sea battles and land fights. The dezrth of such reports puzzle Americans | and they do not like it. Mussolini dis. appointed them. Even the Turks have not made their position unalterably clear and this irks those of us who like to follow the moves and anticipate the activities of the general staffs. : GOLD COMES FROM EUROPE he Federal Reserve Bank of New York, with the largest gold vault in the world, outside that at Fort Knox, Ken- tucky, is receiving vast amounts of gold from France and England. On one day recently, nearly ,.$300,- . 000,000 in gold was received by the baitk most of it being British and French Gov- ernment treasure. In addition, and Belgitm, whic saved most of their gold from the Nazi invaders, have much gold in storage here. Together, the Low Countries had more than a billion dollars in gold, and they managed to get a good part of it out of the country before the | Germans seized everything.
