PRESSURE ON GENERAL FRANCO The Franco regime, now in power in pain as the beneficiary ef Axis military istance, “rejects as arbitrary and un- st’ the decision of the Big Three to ex- ude Spain from membership in the. Unit- Nations organization. Undoubtedly, the indirect condemna- tion of Franco’s government will produce Z Teaction against the dictator because the é§clasion of Spain from the organiaztion ofthe United Nations will become a se- rious handicap if the new organization works successfully in improving world conditions and preserving peace. While General Franco was receiving arms and munitions from the Axis pow- ers, the democratic nations, in their des- perate effort to preserve peace in Europe, refused to permit the Republican govern- ment to secure arms and ammunition from them. This handicap was intensified when Axis troops appeared in Spain and fought actively to establish the Franco regime. Franco’s sympathy with the Axis was apparent and has been revealed in some of the memoirs published since the war ended. Moreover, it is evident in the form of government that he established in Spain and public pronouncements of his govern- ment. The Allied governments, having suc- cessfully concluded a war to remove to- talitarian governments from Europe, will leave their work unfinished unless they apply all possible pressure to bring about the reorganization of the Spanish Gov- ernment. While no one suggests a puni- tive expedition into Spain to bring this about,,the Allies are well within their rights in‘refusing to collaborate with the Francé regime. ist tren" FOR CANCER RESEARCH The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation has made a grant of $4,000,000 for the estab- lishment of a cancer research institute, to be established in New York, for the pur- pose of studying the causes of cancer and of seeking better methods of treatment and possible cures for the many forms of can- cer that now resist treatment. The institute will bear the name of Alfred P. Sloan, Jr. and Dr. Charles F. Ket- tering, both of whom are connected with General Motors Corporation, but it is pointed out that the financing will come from the Sloan Foundation and that the institute will be a personal undertaking of the two men. Inasmuch as cancers form one of the chief, mysteries of medical science and re- sult in the death of a large number of Americans every year, the establishment of this institute will undoubtedly mean much in the fight upon the disease. The research work that it will accomplish will be in the interest of the entire world and there is no way to estimate the good that it might do. Question: Will the next few years produce another bonus army? If employers are wise they will not mistake a temporary labor surplus for an ppportunity to tell labor where to go, RETURNING VISITORS Cireuit Court Judge Aquilino Lopez, dr., says that, when he attended a Rotary luncheon in Boston he met a good many men who had been in Key West and that all of them spoke in the highest terms about it and said they surely intended to make a return visit, What is,true of those Bostonians is true also of hundreds of people who have had occasion to come to Key West during the war. ; Many of. the visitors have informed The Citizen that they expected to return, and some have had letters in The Citizen telling of their decision to come back when the war was over. Well, the war is over, and while a per- centage of those who said they will return may not come back, yet some of them will. They know of conditions here, the type of climate we have, and, while many of them might not have been able to go fishing be- cause of wartime conditions, they were aware of the excellence of angling in local waters. Key West now has a better outlook in the tourist trade than ever before, and, be- yond question, Key West is better pre- pared now to take care of tourists than at any other time in its history, Before the war, housing accommoda- tions were extremely limited, but now there will be many houses and apartments available for newcomers who do not wish to go to hotels or may not be able to get accommodations at hotels because of the unusually large number of visitors who will come here for the winter season. While the war was on, intended visi- tors were advised not to come to town be- cause of the acute shortage of housing ac- commodations, but now we are in a posi- tion to tell them that Key West offers them accommodations with all modern conveniences. One immediate result of ‘the end of warfare, afd one that pleased everybody except the black marketeers ,was the can- cellation of a Government order for 187,- 000,000 new ration books. SOLDIERS COME HOME SHORTLY In éonnection with the redeployment of our soldiers from Europe and the Far East, it is necessary to remind interested Americans that the end of the war with Japan does not greatly facilitate the re- turn of service men from foreign areas. This process is now going ‘on at the utmost speed being limited only by the amount of shipping available. Even so, it will require at least six months to complete the return of our soldiers from Europe. Presumably, a similar period will be nec- essary in connection with soldiers who can be released from the Pacific theatre. In addition, the nation will require the service of between 1,000,000 and 2,000,000 soldiers for the temporary occupation of enemy countries. This process is a part of the war itself and while the duty of in- dividuals, making up the occupation forc- es, will be onerous and somehat uneventful, nevertheless they will be serving their country if they stay abroad. The presumption is strong that our high command, which has given every evi- dence of deep. concern ‘about the safety and comfort of service men, will make every effort to speed their return into civ- ilian life. There is certainly no reason to suspect our generals and admirals have any desire to unduly prolong the service of their veterans. Japan’s request to the Soviet that Russia mediate the conflict, was the tip off to Joseph Stalin that the time had come for Russia to get into the war, and claim more territory and acquire more influence, at the peace table. GOOD SUGGESTION Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg, of Michigan, discussing the relationship be- tween the United States and the new world security organization, suggests that this country accept, in connection with other American nations, “the exclusive responsi- bility for any armed forces required to maintain peace and security in the Western Hemisphere”. This suggestion will undoubtedly meet with the approval of the people of this country, who, as the senator says, do not want “any other armed forces to enter this area’. Moreover, in view of the gen- eral approval of regional - associations among the nations of the world, there seems to be a solid basis for the realization of the Vandenberg suggestion. (cl A SL THE KEY WEST CITIZEN IGHT a CSBISTOPHER saw the Presi- dent of the store early the next morning. He talked to mem-| character in his face. He was. bers of the board of directors,| each one insisting on lengthy pan-, egyrics of his father and grand~' father—each adding his personal conviction that Christopher’s suc- cess in the store was already as-| sured. “I'm sorry you start with this bad situation in furs—” the Presi- dent had said as he was leaving his office. “Dan’s suicide is a shock to all of us. I guess you know how wales your father thought of “I certainly do,” Christopher replied in a low voice. “The rob- bery in that department and Dan’s death will stand a very thorough investigation.” Sudden interest flickered in the elder man’s eyes. “I'm glad to see you appreciate the seriousness of the situation. Keep me in- formed, Christopher.” “Yes, sir, I will.” Then Christopher had gone back to his office and asked _his new secretary to get the floor manager of the fifth floor tip to see him as quickly as possible. Christopher had seen a‘ good deal of Bill Hanson the short time he had been stationed in, furs. Bill was the floor manager of furs and yard goods. He was always popping up in unexpected places on the floor, picenyg up: bits of! gossip and scraps of back-of-the counter politics. His bright, small eyes, close set under an entirely bald head, never missed a thing that went on in the sections. He covered the entire floor like a tent, Nothing ever slipped by Bill. qe looked up from a letter he was reading to see the floor manazex inside the door of his office. Bill was like that.
