If you find it difficult to get on a train, remember that the railroads and the Pull- man Company, by order of the Office of Defensé Transportation, have withdrawn from service all sleeping cars operating be- tween points 450 miles or less apart. The action was made necessary by unexpectedly heavy arrivals of troops from Europe. This action makes available an ad- ditional 895 Pullman cars and gives the mil- itary the exclusive use of about half the sleeping cats operating in the United States. These cars afford a greater measure of comfort to our troops moving to the west coast prior to embarkation to the Pacific theatre. it is interesting to note that in 1918, with a total of approximately 41,000 coach- es and sleeping cars, the railroads perform- ed 42,676,000,000 passenger-miles of ser- Viee in 1944, with approximately 27,700 passenger-carrying cars, the railroads per- formed 95,575,000,000 passenger-miles and | the 1945 passenger load is expected to mount to 10 per cent, to more than 100,000,- 000,000 passenger-miles, or nearly two and one-half times the 1918 passenger load— to be moved in 30 per cent less passenger carrying equipment. On account of wartime restrictions, the railroads have been unable to buy passen- wer carrying cars. The hauling job and the maintenance job they have done with the equipment at hand is almost beyond belief. They have rendered service more expedet- tiously, more courteously and with less waste than in 1918 when there was vastly more equipment, more engines and much more manpower. i You can do your part to help out in the greatest transportation® job in history by traveling only when necessary for pur- poses other than pleasure. _ It won't be long now before President Traman will be able to pick out his friends, NOT AFRAID OF WORDS You know about the man, everybody does, who is always bleating about what he is going to do, and does nothing. You run across him in Key West and would run across him in every other city in this coun- try, or in the world, for that matter. There are many of his ilk. The Japs, judging from broadcasts Lover Radio Tokyo, are now imiich like! that rman. Every day, for several weeks, they have been bleating about what they are going to do to put an end to the blasting of their country, and have done nothing. And every time they have made that statement ‘they have spoken about the planes they have “in reserve” and which they will send into the air at the psycholog- ical moment to destroy the American and British planes that have hammered much of Japan into dust. One would have thought that the “psychological moment’’ had been reached many weeks ago, when American and British planes and ships were causing wide- spread destruction in Japan. What are the Japs going to do: keep their planes “in re- serve” till their country has been laid } waste? i Undoubtedly there are many Jap war- lords, who believe that if. they, continue harping on the subject of those “reserved,” }, planes long enough they may create fear arhong Arhériéan and British military lead- ers, The skaps:don’t seem to be aware that they have cried ‘Wolf, Wolf!” so often their ominous threats have long since been wornout even as jokes. We have heard it said frequently that we don’t understand the Japs’ psychology, yet we understand their psychology far more than they understand ours. Probably, after they have been soundly defeated, they may realize that we are not afraid of words. No matter how good a man is in poli- tics; the electors after a certain time want a’ change, but few people thought that Churchill was slated to go before the com-’ pletion of total victory. |} CREATING PERMANENT JOBS The electric: and, gas utility industries will spend more than $1,000,000,000 in the next, 12 months,. says the Federal Power Commission. It bases this statement on re- ports from .companies representing more than 90 per cent of the two industries, A ‘| small part of this money will be spent by municipal electric systéns, but expendi- tures for Federal projects'are not ineluded. The bulk ‘of the billion dollars will be spent by private electric companies, and every dollar they spend will represent new taxable assets for city, county, state and Federal governments. This cannot be said tor the municifal and Federal plants which operate under public subsides and tax ex- emptions, To the extent that they displace private utilities, they increase the taxes of all other citizens. The electric utility industry has a planned outlay for the 12 months of $761,- 900,000; Khe, gas industry in the same pe- riod plans,an expenditure of $251,000,000. This is the type of postwar spending that means permanent new industries which will furnish steady jobs at good wages. This is tHe type of expenditure that pours money into the public treasuries, thereby lighten- ing the postwar tax burden on private citi- zens. This is the type of expenditure that enables hundreds of thousands of people to invest their savings in American enter- prise which they own and on which they earn a fair return. This is the type of expenditure that our country needs, for this is the type of expen- diture that keeps the United States a nation of free and independent men and women who can plan their own future and security, as contrasted with the socialized state which makes its citizens financially depend- ent on government for their existence. Too many people argue to win their point instead of arguing to learn which can be instructive even if the party of the sec- ond part is argumentative and opinionated. TO CARRY 750 PASSENGERS A preview of the flying boat Hercules, now inder construction, reveals that it has a wingspread of 320 feet, with capacity to carry 350 patients on stretchers, with plen- ty of doctors and nurses and surgical equip- ment. 2 The ship is being built by Howard Hughes at a cost of $20,000,000 and will start its test flights next year. If used for carrying troops, the giant will transport 750 men wherever they are going at the rate of nearly two hundred miles an hour. | THE KEY WEST CITIZEN SNAKE BITES MAN, DIES” onstration of faith at a revival, cernedly in the hot sun at his farm ‘ Advertisements under this head will be inserted Ho: e first 15 words or less is rate for blackfase type Is Je a t imum charge for 15 words or less is 45c. classified advertise- bly in advance, but ners with ledger ac- rt arse a. ments el ‘To insure publication, copy must be in the office before 11 o'clock on the day of publication. —$—$—$— HELP WANTED TELEPHONE OPERATORS WANTED Full Pay While Learning Vacations With Pay > Sickness Benefits | | | | PERMANENT EMPLOYMENT See Mrs. McDermott Chief Operator TELEPHONE OFFICE WANTED—Salesgirls, full time employment.
