Owner and Pablisher STEPPING ON TOES ting after Willard Albury?” A Citizen representative overheard a Key Wester ask that question, but The Citizen is not “getting after’ Willard Ai- bury. The fact is, it has a friendly regard for him. What The Citizen was “getting.after” was a condition, and had any other Key Wester been in Mr. Albury’s place, we would have taken the same stand as we took. It is a poor paper indeed that, when un- fairness; manifests itself, must determine if the creator of it is a friend or foe.

Lewis in connection with the coal strike. = As we understand it, Mr. Waring and the American Legion insist upon American- fm, which includes the right to criticize @ny public official. = €ertainly, any post of the American egion has a right to pass any resolution at its members approve. No doctrine of se majesty applies to the Commander of the organization and no interpretation of eriganism prescribes the right of mem- Bers of an organization to criticize their feaders. ~ Meanwhile, it is announced by the Pennsylvania Department Commander that aminvestigation will be made into the action of the Post, which, it is said, did not pre- S¢nisits.. protest through proper Legion @hannels. The result of the investigation will Ge Watthed with interest, especially in view @ the’repeated proclamation of American- ismen the part of Mr. Waring. HOW ABOUT DRAFTING MINERS? oogannns The solution to the problem of the min- | ers, if the strike is renewed, is easy. Con- | gress should promptly pass a law, empow- ering the President to draft miners for the | public service, using the Selective Service fhachinery, and enrolling. all necessary min- €rs in the service of the Government. 5 Thereafter, the miners would be eated as soldiers, receive $50 a month and garry out military orders. If they disobey- ed the orders» of superior officers, they would be subject to the same penalty as-sol- dieré ‘ih battle zones. +4 This suggestion may sound drastic, but th essence, there is no reason why striking Miners should be allowed to imperil the se- | gurity of the country.

Instead of “getting after” Willard Al- bury, The Citizen has devoted columns of | space, as Mr. Albury is appreciatively aware, in telling of his activities in promot- ing the interests of Key West. We have said that it was due to his personal endeavors that we are to get a municipal hospital and a clinic, and we have published other stories | about the things he has done to help Key West. So, it was not a case of Willard Albury, it was a condition to which The Citizen ob- jected.
