Talk to the man on the street now- adays and you'll gather that things are stirring in Key West. He’ll relate of a better feeling in the air—an optimism pre- vailing that bodes much good for the im- mediate and far-off future. Of course, we can’t help agreeing with him. The Citizen’s néws stories have been boiling over with good news lately and there is promise of more of the same to come in a short while. This weekend, the hearts of many Key Westers were gladdened when both the county and city announced payrolls to be disbursed. Merchants here were in- terested in that news, in contemplation of increased business and some of their out- standing bills paid. Big-time projects, however, in the off- ing, are whipping up most of the opti- mistic feeling demonstrated on all sides in the Island City. Following a_ relapse ‘pericd during which two or three projects appeared stalemated, the news that at least one of them is about to get under ay and that another is far advanced to- wards initial work stages, is welcome in- | deed. Key West’s hopes rise and fall on the progress being made on those projects that have come tc mean so much to its welfare and future stability. We have a_ total- view on things here, and feel that the county and city can not hope to push ahead on a sound feundation without the aid of these major projects we have so long awaited. The time is at hand when the signal will be given—Forward March! The | Citizen would suggest that all hands pre- | pare to pitch in with cooperation to make | the new season the best on record. INCREASING THE HOURS OF WORK There is significance to be found in the fact that Soviet Russia has abandoned ' the forty-hour week in order to produce | the munitions that the Russian government thinks is necessary. Hours of work in Germany are sixty per week and in Japan seventy. concerred, the hours are now forty. Under the pressure of preparing for war the Soviet government has moved | from a five-day week to a six-day week, | advancing the hours from forty to forty- eight. It may be necessary for the United States tc do something along the same line. We are thoroughly in favor of shorter working time for laborers, as a_ general rule, ard, unless forced to increase them in behalf of national defense woild be against longer hours for American labor- ers. At the same time, if national leaders, who have been friendly to labor, decide that the interests of the nation require longer hours, then we will be in favor of rch because of the heat may be getting | longer hours. Without the necessary expert infor- mation upon the production of various items, essential to national defense, the ef- feet of Jonger hours on production, and similargagestions, we have no way to de- f Frank- vould’ not accept, without close scrutiny, the recommendation of employ- ers, who might use the natioral‘emergency as an excuse to reduce labor standards, but we would support such a recommenda- tion if it came from men who have, in the ast, demonstrated their interest in the welfare of laboring people. AN ELECTRICAL DANGER Electricity can be employed for al- most innumerable useful purposes, but when appliances are rigged up by those not familiar with the workings of this mys- terious force they may be extremely dan- gerous. A warning in this connection was given to farmers recently by Truman E. Hienton of the agricultural engineering department of Purdue University. He reférred to the use of homemade electric fence deyices built without com- supervision. Electrical he said, cam be built for about 50 cents a rod, or one-half of the cost of ordinary farm fencing. But, unfortunately, he declared, some farmers have undertaken construction of such equipment without full realization of the dangers ‘nvelved, with a consequent electrocution of livestock and even human beings.
