Au- 3 if eit y ‘has agreed to spend about $234,- nao ; af “From, their conversation when the subject first was brought up last month, it appears they will not acquire the land, but if they don’t, they can look forward to some ringing protests from the citizens of the Marathon area. The question simply boils down to the old one of Key West so completely over- shadowing the rest of a county in which its citizens constitute an overwhelming ma- jority. On one side is the fact that the citizens of Marathon, who insist that they don’t get much out of the county in return for their tax money, are asking for an expenditure whose immediate returns will go to them, wather than to Key West. 5 4 ‘On’ thé other side, the commissioners’) are thinking about the fact that Key West, with the majority lof\tle voters,’ probally!) would'camplain about any sizeable ex-) penditures—witht consequent tax incréabes —for something 55 miles away. In a broad sense, of coursé, Key West eventually will -benefit from anything which increases the value and the popula- tion of the keys. The airport would do both, WHERE WE LEAD THE WORLD @ aibcipeecerts At the end of the last war, a leading British statesman made this significant ob- servation! “The Allies sailed to,victory on a sea of oil.” In World War Il, thinks many an ex- pert, the decision will again be largely de- termined by the petroleum assets of the antagonists. And that is where Germany is weak—and Britain and the United States are strong. The oil companies of our country pro- duce 63 per cent of the world’s oil. And, equally important, they produce an even higher percentage of the high-grade gaso- line that is necessary to obtain maximum performance from. aireraft engines. Ac- cording to one authority, our gasoline is so superior that our military planes fly 30 per cent faster, carty 20 per cent more bombs and can ¢limb above anti-aircraft fire 25 per cent more quickly than can Germany’s comparable types. Getmany can obtain only 3 per cent of the world’s natural oil supply from within Europe. We are similarly blessed in those other basie materials which are necessary not only to maintain a completed military machine, but to fueling the factories whieh are building,it. Indispensable sources of industrial powerare coal -and_ electricity. In the face dt Ueficits, legislative problems. and labor ttoubles, the coal industry ‘has! maintained its|high state of _production.: Aind the private glectric industry has per- sisted in going ‘ahead in spite of years of} political persecution. The fature of free nations is de- pendent on the output of our great natural resource industries. A wise governmental policy will now do everything possible to encourage them to greater achievements than ever before. THE MAJORITY SHOULD RULE John T. Whitaker, an Ajmerican news- paper man, was recently expelled from Italy because his dispatches to the New York Post and Chicago News did not please the authorities of that totalitarian state. Mr, Whitaker has a thorough knowl edge of what is going on in Europe. He is ‘also familiar with, what is happening in the tv nited States. Emphasizing that “in.a democracy the minority has the right to exist but by the same token the majority has the right to rule,” Mr. Whitaker thinks it is time for the majority of Americans to assert them- selves against this militant minority. The air-line distatice between Berlin and New York is 3,961 miiles. One reason why Lloyds of London are betting 1000 to 1 that the American metropolis will not be bombed by European aviators.
