BIRD-SHOOTING NUISANCE Each year, it appears, Key West goes through trying experiences just be- cause a number of so-called sportsmen residents here see fit to violate many laws of both legal and sportsmanship nature in their effort to develop their sharpshooting abiliti This year, it further appears, is no exception to the rule. Even more so have the complaints come in from residents with homes in the outlying districts of the-city. Indiscriminate shooting of buckshot guns being conducted by the sharpshooters with veritable showers of buckshot descending on houses. The nuisance becomes one of major proportions, however, when reports are is ' heard that at least one person was hit by buckshot and a white heron was killed while in flight. The latter case even more serious than that of the “shot citizen” in that severe Federal penalties may be assessed upon the person found responsible for the death of the herons, now protected by the national laws. There doesn’t seem to be much that can be done about regulation of these shooters who continually violate the city laws by carrying on their activity within city limits. At least the police department hasn’t been able to stop them. What should be done, however, is to furnish each and every one of those ap- plying for shooting licenses at the open- ing of the season each year with a blank pledge to fill out and sign to the effect that they will abide by all laws on all books in connection with this sport. Applicants should become acquainted with those laws and be sportsmen enough to live up to them. is ANOTHER PARADOX Most interesting was the report writ- ten up in this paper this week concerning the current meeting of the County Com- missioners in which the subject of placing a proposition on the ballot that would have reduced the board members’ pay was in- troduced. In review, there were two members of the board who would not have been af- fected by the salary-reduction referendum, if it received a majority of votes in the They will not be present on the One of them was opposed to election. new board. _ placing the proposition on the ballot—the other was noncommittal. With one commissioner absent, the | cther two appeared opposed to putting the measure up for residents of the city to vote on. State Representative presented his side of the story, stating reasons for his in- troduction of the measure last spring, and reminded the commissioners that it was up to them to approve its entry on the ballot. This they refused to do—a vote not even beirg taken on the proposition. Paradoxical side of the situation ap- peared to be that the commissioners op- posed to the measure seemed fairly cer- tain that it would be approved by the elec- torate—else they would not have argued against it. Notwithstanding that angle, The Citi- zen feels that the legislation should have been passed on to the veters of Monroe County. It was passed at Tallahassee with its referendum clause. Citizens have a right to feel cheated in the matter. FREE ENTERPRISE FACES A FOE The greatest barrier to the peace of the world today is the new-fangled eco- nomie system, imposed upon Germany by necessity, but nevertheless refined and rigorously applied by Hitler. Americans who still talk about “free enterprise” in this country ought to un- derstand, very clearly, that it is doomed if Germany conquers Great Britain, reor- ganizes Europe and attempts to do business with other nations upon the basis of barter. There is no place for the-individual in the economic philosophy of ..Germany. Everything is throygh the, State and,py its permission. To secure. Yekeigh markets, there is exchange control,.import limita- tions and export subsidies. No private business, in the United States or elsewhere, can compete with such a business com- petitor in South America, or anywhere else. The world cannot endure, ically, half-barter and half-free. Either it must follow one pattern or the other. In this country we have espoused the theory of individual initiative; with as few gov- ernment controls as possible. econom- THE KEY (VEST CITIZEN FLEMING STREET METHODIST (Uptown) CHURCH Fleming at William Street Rev.
