All this question of water, by the way, largely up to the Navy since I understand they have over two million dollars inj} the line which was laid as a mili tary and civic project, and that the Florida Keys Aqueduct Com-} mission has a little over a million; in the line. All this, of course.| is in bonds and not actual cash.| Funds from use of the water go! into paying off the investment.) Commander Hoar is the naval of ficer in charge of the pipeline.

REAWAKENED COUNTRY CUB Watch for reawakened interest in the Country Clubhouse soon. And for further repair of Key West's Southernmost Golf Course. The Navy, Jaycees, Golf Club and Country Club Association are | taking active interest in repairing the clubhouse for use by these various civic bodies. Present lease is held by the Country Club Association on which about $8,- 000 is owed but it is expected that a quit-claim deed to the Property will be secured by the city and the $8,000 written off the books. . .

I do not believe a hur- ricane will wreck the project so that the sand cannot be easily spread back along the beach ‘as could be the case with Rest Beach. . . EAUTIFUL STRETCH I was looking over the Re: Beach site the other day and can just imagine how beautiful it will be to have the ugly swamp or lowland just behind the beach filled in with the fill dug from the beach and the whole spread come hack against Atlantic Boulevard, the street just behind the beach. This will make the beach about 200 to 300 feet wide. Dot this with your central casino and col- orful sun shades and cabana shelters, swimming pool and deep ater off shore and you really have something. Provision will be made to clear seaweed offshore and on the beaches. ° .

Goering, Hess, Ribbentrop— most of these twenty desperate men, whom for days I have seen in the prisoner's dock—I saw in 1938 in this same city of Nurnberg, walked like little Gods amongst their soulless but subservient fel- low-gangsters.

Hess, first Hitler's Secre- tay and then Deputy Leader of the Nazi Party, who, until early in 1941, was Hitler's shadow and spokesman. Ribbentrop, who as Foreign Minister, was Hitler's supercilious and unscrupulous ac- complice in throwing the world into the agony of war for Nazi domination. Keitel, the cold Prus- sian militarist, who under Hitler organzed and ordered the death and devastation which German Armed Forces—from the first of September, 1939 until the eighth of May, 1945—poured out upon the world. And then there is Rosenberg, whose devilish mind was the phi- losopher and cunning creator of Nazi doctrines and who later loot- ed the art treasure of Europe and perpetrated some of the pringipal outages of Nazi occupation.'
