Phe Bretton Woods Agreement pro- vides for the creation of a $9,100,000,000 bank for reconstruction and development loan#”and an $8,800,000,000 fund for the stabijization of world-currencies. The plan reprqgents the agreements by representa- tives'gf 44 nations. The Associated Press dispatch out- linewebjectives and purposes as follows: Werid Bank: To encourage internation- al te oe in productive enterprise in war-jevastated countries and the develop- menf_of natural resources, public utilities and fhdustries in undeveloped countries; to gtarmntee loans made by private lenders and banks, and to make some loans out of resources, with each member-country shariiig in the bank's risks in proportion to the @bck it holds; to make long term cur- renegetabilization loans. telienational Monetary Fund: Requires coupe countries to define their cur- «in terms of gold; would progr ty readhowe barriers against payments across imtermational boundaries and provide a re- viving fund of foreign hange to enable member-countries to maintain stable and mretricted currency relationships in itme f fifaneial stress. The objectives should meet with the eval of the people of the member coun- tries regardless of debate and dispute as © the details. We are of the opinion that the World Bank and Stabilization Fund is e@ary if the world is to expect a gen- erousdevelopment of hy gate trade. hether the details, j in ithe ent represent the b po Mie plan, m wish he general purpose is a mat- ‘ : on aad oye pn whieh, Any not | Grough infgrmed to pass cei ani judge’ ty thie connection, it might be well comer that such details should be » the experts making up the the various nations. *) viously impossible for the aver- ov for the average man or other country, to possess the knowledge necessary to the for- n intelligent opinion.

But the people of Key West do not — se ae We Sieorintes Prose A exclusively entitled to | stop to think before making a ridiculous statement, is another objection, but it alse applies to the people in every other com- —Hi9.09 munity. For that matter, how much better 238 | off all of us would be if we stopped to think. +93 | As Poor Richard says in effect; he who thinks tii¢e before he speaks once, speaks twiee ag convincingly, All of-which is in keeping with reports that are making the rounds of thé town about who isto be city manager. If any- body stopped to think long enough, wouldn’t he know that nobody knows who the city manager will be. In the first place, who are to be the city commissioners, and yet they must be elected before we can have a city manager, | and it is the commissioners who will name | the manager. Five commissioners will be elected, and it will take at least three of them to decide who will manage the affairs of the city. As we don’t know who the commis- sioners will be, because it is a free and open race, how are we to know who the manager will be? If you elect five commissioners, ‘let'segay A, B.C, D and E, they may choose Bil Bink for efty ‘manager, and if you ele oF Gel { and: J ¢ity commissioners, they will chopse fone other man. Se it is futilé, as well as ridiculous, to ‘say who will be our t city manager til we know the names of the men who will be elected commissioners. Such talk, this stage of the proceedings, is nothing more than foolish talk. © are guarding a soldier’s life! The rivalry between individuals, which’ is bad enough, does not compare with ‘the envy of small groups defending special favors. TRUMAN AND HOOVER One of the rare instances in American history was” the ostracizing ‘of Herbert Hoover from the White House during the tenure of his successor in office. When President Hoover was defeated, he prompt- ly invited President-elect Roosevelt to the White House, and it is public history that he proposed to carry out the views of Mr. Roosevelt through the remaining weeks of his term of office. But during all of Mr. Roosevelt’s administrations, er never received any recognition due to a former head of the American government. There was no criticism of Mr. Truman in Washington when he invited Herbert Hoover to the White House to discuss the in the countries that have been freed by the Allied forces. In fact, there was pra tically unanimous approval voiced by all the political leaders in the Nation’s Capital No matter what the results may e that first visit of Mr. Hoover to his old dwelling place in 12 years, it is ag only ex-President and the only living Presi- | dent have shown proper respect forthe office of President. ,Yaur dive will bé happier if you adopt see 2 policy of honesty. ahd It is not correct to state that the gov- ernment owes everyone a living. It does. however, owe everyone the opportunity to make a living. “WHAT’S IN FRONT?” a “Whether a thing is tough or pends on what’s in front of you,” Generel Courtney H. Hodges, | of the U. S. First Army, States on his way to the campaign in the Pacific. This statement should be born in mind in connection with the reports of American losses in ousting the Japanese from various | island bas Not only the toughness of | the situation, but the price of victory de- pends “on what’s in front of you.” Obviously, in appraising losses, this important factor should not be overlooked. {It has been a tendency in the United States, whenever Americz against stiff jemphasize net d declar commander n fighting men run up Japanese resistance, to over. losses sustained. j These are played up in a debatable man- ner, without any attempt to corre ae | Dre ise the terrain or the number of en | soldiers involved and without a comparison fof losses, necessary at!
