STANDARD ISSUES C overs Southern Waters CRUISING GUIDE Southern yachtsmen and visi- tors from northern waters will find the new Southern Cruising Guide just issued by the Stand- ard Oil Company (Ky.) a_ valu- able addition to their equipment This guide covers the Atlantic and Gulf coasts from Charleston, S. C., to New Orleans, and should prove as popular with owners of small boats as Standard Oil road maps are among mo- torists. The guide consists principally of 19 detailed charts of the Intra- coastal Waterway showing im- portant lights, and other nav as waterway: lifeboat _ stations. storm signals are displayed, yacht clubs, and many other helpful data. Congested waterways in the vicinity of Charleston, Savannah, Jacksonville, Miami, and Key ‘West are shown in larger scale on special inset maps. On all of these the principal courses between harbors and navigation aids are accuratey plotted and compass bearings in degrees (true) and point to point mileages in nautical miles are given. Each chart has a comp: rise which indicates the variatio' in 1941 and the annual change. A dark blue tint is used to identify the areas with six feet of water or less at mean low tide. For the convenience of “boat- |, men planning long cruises there isa key map which shows the sequence of the detailed charts and the numbers of the official government charts which apply to each section of the coast. since it should be pointed out that this Southern Cruising Guide not intended to supplant the charts issued by the U.S. Coast Geodetic Survey. Other special features of the fuile are accurately drawn illus trations of lighthou rious types of navi both intracoasta anc Weather is index ome 1400 waterways, is- lands, and other features.

PEOPLE’S FORUM “CAMPAIGN Editor, Key West Citizen: The editorial appearing on the front page of The Key West Citi- zen, dated today, is commendatory and should have the serious con- sideration of aH citizens interested inthe betterment of Key West The subject is distasteful to any self respecting individual and usually is avoided whenever pos sible. The case in Key West, how- ever, is not altogether a question of morals or health, but reaches deeper. We are at the point where the future welfare of our city rests on our action at this time. The basis on which the exist- ence of any community rests is law enforcement. The city statutes’ book probably has ample laws to control and even prohibit the practice of prostitution. Per- haps it is an impossibility for the inadequate police force in Key West to enforce the laws to the letter, but this is neither an ex- cuse or a reason why the degreda- tion of the young people of the city should be allowed to thrive. It is common knowledge that youngsters of fourteen to twenty years of age are permitted by the , Operators of resorts to frequent ; their places of business. For a very few days, late this past autumn, this practice was stopped, but tonight a large number of minors can be found in the bars and brothels of Key West.
