More Hotels and Apartments. Beach and Bathing Pavilion, Airperts—Land_ and Sea. Consolidation of County and City Gov- ernments, ~A Modern City Hospital. The Japanese say they are ready to rosign a non-aggression treaty with the Unit- © ed States, but it would be of doubtful value in view of Japanese non-aggression in China. ‘ Since physieal ‘fitness is one of the Nazi ideals, Goering who is too fat and 2Gobbbels who is too. thin, may find them- | eselyes out of the Hitler ring, and wishing for'the safety of Hess. Hitler and Naziism must be abolished before negotiations can be started, say the British, which determination is heartily “seconde: by the United States and undoub- » tedly by the conquered smaller nations. ‘The whole Soviet legal system has . been devised with the aim of eradicating | thetidea of God from the human mind. Sta- | lin evidently does not agree with Voltaire, who also was an atheist, when he wrote that if there were no God it would become neces- | ~sary to create one, Secretary Knox informed all civilian | employees of the Navy Department they “must sign affidavits that they are not mem- bers of any subversive organization. This rule must have teeth in it or it is of no use. | Unless severe punishment follows the falsi- | Sfication of an affidavit, we can imagine | communists and fifth columnists laughing | in their sleeves as they place their John Hancocks on the document. You can’t “temporize with that gentry. In sending U. S, troops on Inglewood, “Calif., to stop the strike at the plant of the North American Aviation plant where planes were being made for National De- fense, the government not only protected its own interests but it also defended the right of any American to work where he “chooses, In no free form of government can any group have power and be irresponsible. .Labor may ponder profitably on how the _Arragant capitalists of other days created a public sentiment that restricted their power and increased their responsibility, Labor is jn the saddle and riding high and hand- “some ; unless it acknowledges its responsi- Dilities it may be unhorsed, and capital re- ~gainthe mount, HOW MANY MEN? Key Westers, possibly within the next | few weeks, will be asked to cooperate in a | housing census which will give the army and navy their first detailed information on just how many men could be quartered in this city without the addition of more buildings. The census, provably to be carried out | by Boy Scouts, will give the armed services | a complete picture of Key West housing facilities—how many rooms, condition of the buildings. When it is over, the committee hadling | ! the job and the armed forces will know, not | only how many men could here by filling the vacant rooms and using | 0 , existing beds, but how many could be shelt- ered in Key West on the flat basis of 80) be quartered square feet of floor space to a man. Thus an average living room of 14’ X | 12’, or slightly. smaller, would be consider- | ed large enough for two men, whose indi- | vidual space would be figured on the basis of 10’ x 8’. Cards detailing that and more informa- tion will be given the Boy Scouts, or who- ever evertually is called upon to do the leg- | work of the actual survey. By a door-to-door check, with each man | probably assigned to some small area, the committee within a few days can compile what is likely to be the first complete pic- | ture ever put together of the condition of | housing facilities in this city. Details of the plan still are being work- ed out by a 15-man committee which re | presents city, county, army, navy and hous ing authorities, as well as labor and other | groups. It’s all part of the preparation required for defense, and Key Westers will make the survey more complete by cooperating to the best of their abilities. The census is a job that has to be done. CARE OF THE EYES Many persons become blind, or go through life with impaired vision because of neglect of the most ordinary precautions, according to a leading oculist, who gives some good advice in a recent article. He declared that the putting of a drop | or two of silver solution in the eyes of an in- fant at birth is a most important matter, as | five or six.different kinds of germs which may cause partial or complete blindness are liable to gain access to the infant's eyes at that time. Tis also important to keep sharp or pointed instruments, such as scissors, pen- cils and dangerously sharpened toys, away from very young children and any foreign body which happens to get into the eyes should be given immediate attention. No inflammation of the eyes, however slight, should ever be neglected. With respect to cross-eyes, the expert advises that steps be taken to correct this condition very early, and he declares that a child no more than a year old may be taught to wear glasses for straightening the squint, which will in most cases effect a permanent correction. He warns against the use of ten-cent store glasses or any glas- | ses not prescribed after expert examination of the eyes, Consideying what a handicap poor eyesight places upon the individual, it really strange that the simple precautions recommended by health authorities are so is | frequently neglected. MAKING A CHILD EAT Parents who coax and coddle and threaten when a child refuses to eat are on the wrong track, according to Dr, Frank Howard Richardson, a noted child special- ist. They are merely causing the child to be- come neurotic and self-centered by paying too much attention to his whims. Instead of humoring the child by urg- ing or bribing him to eat, he should be made to sit down at the table five times a da 30 minutes at the three regular meals and for 20 minutes at mid-morning and mid- afternoon lunches. Suitable foods are to be placed before him each time, but no effort whatever is to be made to induce him to eat. He may eat or he may not as he chooses. But at the end of the time set he should be made to leave the table whether he has eaten or not. Dr. Richardson declares that there is no danger that a child wil! starve himself under such circumstances, but that within two or three days the “cure” will be un way. In conclusion, the doctor says: “The relief afforded sorely parents by this course of. action genuine that parents usually worder why tired so | they waited so long before adopting it.” how much | floor space, sanitary facilities, telephones, | THE KEY WEST CITIZEN i | i | ' \ Joy “Thompson, | Rose | wane ing herself on a log beside the) }ayE swift Avalanche : | |Simon Olson, 48-year-old visitor! z from Moorhead, Minn., asked her | NOTICE OF INTENTION TO MAKE | | cousin to take her picture.
