Whitbeck, district coast guard officer, inland fishing in waters “which are not contiguous to the waters of the coastline of that part of the State of Florida which is located in the seventh naval dis- trict” now has full navy ap- proval. Coast guard captains of the ports have been instructed to tem- per their enforemeent according to this latest of four amendments. BLIND AUTHOR SEES THE WORLD; IT SPINS AROUND HIS FINGERS By JOHN SELBY - AP Arts Editor NEW YORK, Dec. 15.—The hotel room is small, high up with a good view of East Side back yards and alley cat hang- outs. You sit at the window facing the door. Next to the door is a closet, next to that the bed. On your right is a writing table, on your left a chest of drawers, It is Karsten Ohnstad’s toom and you are waiting for him. In a moment the key is inserted in the lock, the door opens, and | Ohnstad says, “Hello”. ; He takes off his top coat and hangs it quickly in the closet. | “How are you?” he asks, walking | easily down the room. He shakes | hands briskly, takes out a pack! ef cigarettes, and says, “Have one?” You do, and he seats him- self in the chair by the window. It happens so naturally you forget that it’s most a miracle. For Ohnstad has been blind since the was seventeen, and he has} been in the hotel only a few! hours. | Author Of Bright Book Ohnstad’s book, “The World at My Finge made quite aj stir. It's a bright book, gay in| spots, in which he tells just what | happened to him and why, and| how he has managed to over- come one handicap after another, and even to find a few advant- | JUDGE LORD MARRIES TWO COUPLES MONDAY County Judge Raymond R.

KETTANEH CHALLENGES: Fallacy number one: The evils of the 80’s were the evils of government control which took the place of the | free trade policy of the British Em- pire of the 19th century, a period | of phenomenal peace and prosperity. Fallacy number two: The controls which Mr. Straight now suggests are | the very controls which the democ- racies condemned when Germany employed them. Fallacy number three: These are the controls which anger nations and provoke wars as evidenced by the fact that the democracies ignored the massacre of Chinese and Abys- sinians, but fought when the free flow of international trade became obstructed by totalitarian controls. MR. STRAIGHT REPLIES: Mr. Kettaneh confuses democratic and Fascist government and asserts that all state controls are evil, We might as well say that because the Nazis walk and breathe, it is evil to walk | and breathe. | — Russia, China, Britain and America should join now in a relief and re- construction council.

KETTANEH OPENS: It should be remembered that the roads to war and hell are paved with good intentions. Americans today are fired with the best of intentions but my first hand knowledge of the hopes and aspirations of most nations prompts me i. sound a warning note. Total victory will bring unlimitec opportunities coupled with unescapa: | ble responsibilities to help police the world and wean the oncoming totali- tarion generations trom the doctrine of subservience to the state. The American way of life cannot be im posed’ by decree; it must grow natu- rally through the free exchange of | ideas, ideals, goods and services. World solidarity requires nations tc surrender some sovereign rights to make international justice enforce- able and create democratic interna- tional control of finance, banking, communication, transportation, tariffs. | However, trade and commerce mus* remain in private hands operating within the framework of the above controls. Americans should beware ot making a WPA project of the in- ternational economy lest their inten- tions be again’ misconstrued. We are fighting to destroy totali- tarian controls of trade and produc- tion. Government control is not only wasteful, graft-ridden, and cumber- some; it is a constant source of in- | ternational irritation and ill-will— the forerunner of all wars. MR. STRAIGHT CHALLENGES: Evidently Mr. Kettaneh agrees with much of my argument. But I ques- tion his statement about the hopes and aspirations of nations, China and Russia have already indicated that their foreign trade, and heavy indus- try, will remain a state monopoly. Britain, like most other nations, is | determined to maintain her wartime | controls. Like it or not, government is going to operate industry and trade over a great part of the world. In this world of government operation, | old controls, designed to regulate pri- vate operation, will lose their mean- ing. We need new controls over gov- ernment, world controls. MR. KETTANEH REPLIES: Mr. Straight infers that State controls, i considered reprehensible when prac- | | ticed by Fascist bureaucrats, be- comes virtuous when operated by bureaucrats in democracies, but the universal dissatisfaction with present arbitrary trade controls. demon- strates that Government control is* clumsy, wasteful, irtitating and jus- fied only by total war. Mr, Straight’s panacea is an uge- old fallacy. It would be tragic if Americans unwittingly enabled Goeb- bels to accuse the “Jewish-dominated Anglo-Saxon plutocracies” of impe- rialistic designs on world trade. Ev- ery thoughtful reader will inevitably conclude that an economy operated by buck-passing, resporisibility-dodg- ing bureaucrats cannat be efficient nor.conductive to international good will Gene Sands, Marathon _ busi- |ness man, returned last week from New York, where he had {been spending a_ vacation of several weeks with relatives.
