net Pa Tene se ee Baewe © eepce ees | phone strike; and Pp * oe, ite DESERVED RECOGNITION wi be) WHY CITIES GROW All of us have a variety of interests but one of them is sure to be the most im- portant. Let us take a look at some of the news stories yesterday: MacArthur seizes 29 | Japanese banks; 200,000 threaten tele- reenberg slams one over the fence; war-time control is removed from lumber and metals; Republicans urge a 20-percent tax slash. Which one of those stories is of the | most interest to all of us? That question | is easily answered: the proposed tax cut, and the reason for the interest is because taxes affect our pocketbooks. Now. if every Key Wester showed as much concern in the welfare of his com- munity as he does in the reduction of taxa- tion, that interest would have a gripping | quality that could not be broken. It would be the combining of each personal interest into a community inter- est, and what wonders that type of interest would do for Key West! That is the kind of interest that makes a city grow: each Key Wester working for the city’s interest as though it is his per- sonal interest. When Key West as a com- munity is actuated interest nature, you may be sure that Key West will progress and the progress will be main- tained as long as the interest continues. One may recal! instances of that kind in a dozen Florida cities, whose growth has been due to the determined efforts of residents in promoting the growth. “iA 1 by of that | i + ard tty we Chapter 9 * | Evelya, me what's going on?” 4 = “Oh, Mr. Sheridan”—Carla Grey.” Carla “ Ff seemed to swim toward him—| vicious sweetness. t “Tve had such » dreadful time!
