Howse, administrator of the Property Board, says that one esti- the surplus property to be left over places its cost “as equal to a third of the value of every man-made article—from the mallest pin. to Boulder Dam—whch this country contained less than 10 years ago.” The administrator thinks that consum- er goods should be disposed of speedily while an active market exists and that this policy will get the best price for the gov- errment and clear the way for expanded In the case of plants d capital equipment, he believes, there be greater caution to avoid inequita- ble distribution, to guard against monop- oly, to safeguard employment .and to pro- tect a war reserve.

Eventually the people of, this country will understand the Axis conspiracy against civilization and how close it came to suc- cess. DEVELOPING FLORIDA KEYS Sales of realty on the Florida Keys, involving fairly large sums, indicate a trend that almost surely will result in outstand- ing developments. Recently, acreage at the southerly tip of Upper Matecumbe was sold for $16,500, then Stirrup’s Key was sold for $15,000, and yesterday the Florida East Coast Hotel Company sold for $35,000 the onetime famous Long Key Fishing Camp. The last-named place is ideally sit- uated for a fishing lodge, and, while the buyer has not announced what he intends to do with the property, its development or redevelopment, for when it was operated by the hotel company it was kept in prime condition, will add much to the growth of the keys. The Citizen has said on several occa- sions that the day is not far off when the entire chain of keys will be dotted with small communities and fishing lodges that will attract thousands of tourists, because the waters of the keys afford the best salt- water fishing in the United States. Other fishing camps, comparable with one that was at Long Key and the one at Pirates Cove on Sugar Loaf, will be con- structed, The Citizen believes, early in the pestwar world. q We have recalled several times, and still sense a feeling of satisfaction ‘in re- calling it, what J. W. Ricketts, one of the vice presidents of the Coral Gables Cor- poration in the days when it was in its glory, said about Key West and the other Florida Keys: “The day will come when they will be well developed because they offer two out- standing attractions, climate and fishing. The climate in winter is warmer than else- where in Florida and fishing is unquestion- ably the best in coastal waters.” But there are agricultural possibilities on the keys also. In that regard, there is nothing of an experimental nature. The Florida Keys, up to 50 years ago, produced crops that were sold for several hundred thousand dollars annually, and what was done then can be done again. As the late Stephen F. Lowe, who owned several hun- dred acres on the keys, and whose father, John Lowe, Jr., also owned large tracts, said about the growing of produce on the ‘keys, “The only thing lacking now is work. The oldtimers worked and produced, and if we want to produce, we must work.” A woman is only a woman when she doesn’t care to conceal her weight. Do you know any pacifists ready to make a parachute descent into Japan to preach peace? FRENCH ATTACK SPANIARDS What is the meaning of the incident reported from France where a mob at- tacked a train, bound from Switzerland to Spain, carrying civilians? The French, armed with iron rods and bottles, thought that the train carried sol- diers of the Spanish Blue Division which fought with the Germans against the Rus- slans, The number of casualties is not certain but the train turned back into Switzerland where, it is said, 23 persons were missing, 61 were seriously injured and 100 were slightly hurt.

Edris and her histrionics were some- times funny, sometimes tiresome. “Don’t worry about it, darling,’ Not unless the Japs really come—” “But if they did come you'd | go with us, wouldn’t you, jmother? You wouldn’t stay here.” Cynthia paused. It was too fan- tastic to be talked about, certainly | ly- not to a nervous child. “They won’t come,” she said quietly. “Anyhow, they’re already here, aren't they? Thousands and thousands like Hamuri whom you’ve known for years. You wouldn’t be afraid of Hamuri, would you. He made your little herb garden.and showed you how to make sweet peas grow and bloom.” “Yes, he did that,” Edris stam- mered, lowering her eyes. “I’m not afraid for myself, mother. It’s for you. When you're not here I think such dreadful things. I can’t bear for you not to be here.” Cynthia gave her a long lock. Something Ae Se in her mind, an answer to that unpredictable part of Edris which she didn’t understand. A shadow flitted be- peared. There was Vera whom she hadn’t understood, who was like a stranger. “Darling,” she said and drew the frail body down beside her. “Why must you always be so ae to me?

He’ll know what I must do. He'll know a psychologist—some- body who has studied children.” It appalled her to realize how lit- tle she knew herself. “Mother will you move your things back to your old room so we can be together? I'll give you all the best bathroom shelves—” Cynthia jumped up so suddenly that Edris was almost tumbled on the floor, “Don’t be silly,” she*said sharp- “This'is my own room.

Brandy’s house is one. It’s all sunny over there. Haven’t you any curiosity, woman? Joan has a girl.” She nurmured something he didn’t hear. Why should a Brandon baby matter to them? “Coming out this week end, Cyn- thia? You’re undependable about making up 5 our mind. You’ll have to come if you want to see me.” The lightness had gone out of his voice. It had never really be- longed “No,” she said, and her own was contracted. “Not this week end. to see a dector and it will be a Sunday appoint- “A doctor—” e cnt pro Bases Cay ment prom, rest Br family will be without me.” “I see."

Be- ond aoe thin thread she ea the Brandon child crying and Ray’s laugh. She had been saying these unspeakable things to the Brandon living room, scat- | tering her lege love among babies and blue prints and tech- | nical magazines. And Carey had let her do this. He didn’t call her again. ‘HE week slipped by and on Salinas she ot an appoint- ment with Di low and told him the difficult story of Edris, more difficult that it sent feelers into her own life and she must talk of things she refused to think | about. is Dr. Harlow was a tall man with a shock of black hair and an ar- rogant nose. His pince-nez bored into her mind and dragged her hesitating words to the surface with only an occasional question. Finally he said. “You needn’t tell me any more. I’m not an authority on psycho- analysis. Or a psychometrist. Per- haps these processes are inter- changeable. But I can send you to a man who knows all the an- swers. I'd advise you to let him teach you yours, Mrs. Winslow.” “Teach me?” Cynthia said. “It’s | Earis I'm concerned about.” Dr. Harlow gave her a search- ing glance and she thought of rapiers, but he said nothing until | he had scribbled an address and telephone number on the back of his own card. Then his ‘words came like hammer blows. To be continued nnn OF, TH | ed a conflict. Certainly, there will be pro- tests from Dictator Franco but he will not flourish a big stick.

COURT FREES BUND MEMBERS States, by a five to four decision, has re- versed the conviction of 24 chiefs of the German-American Bund who were convict- ed in New York of conspiring to advise draft evasion. The court said that the evidence upon which convictions were based was insuffici- ent and freed the men from sentences of five years. While opinions may differ as to the reasoning and wisdom of the close decision by the Supreme Court, the case illustrates again the independence of American courts which have repeatedly declined to be swayed by popular sentiment in connection with the judicial consideration of issues, We again suggest that the Tiniteal aoe ‘Al The Supreme Court of the United j vin: ca ALICE JA .
