The above sentence is taken from the opening address of Prime Minister Clem- R. Attlee, of Great Britain, to the del- es of fifty-one representing four-fifths of the people of the world, who ntly gathered in London for the initial the United Nations Organiza- egat nations, rece meeting of tion. Mr of Attlee was pleading for the sup- “masses of people througout the when he pointed out that the purposes of the UNO include not only freedom from fear but the ‘tdelivering of 1kind from the peril of want.’” He em- phasized that the “spectre of’ ecohomit in- is more constint, tiffpre igi ent” individual cittaén “fan {ha} Ahadow of war.” e It is well that some speaker directed attention to the fact that you cannot out- by making agreements and will continue in the any people are convine- have ‘nothing to lose” in at- take something from others The conspiracy between Rome, and built in part, at upon the belief of the dictators that he probable the port world” th to the aw warfare t the peril of strife vorld as long as ed that they tempting force. to le was gains from warfare were far, more than the losses of defeat.

Indeed, they persist in going be- yond the deadline even when, had they acted before, it would have benefited them, as in the case, for instance, of ap- plying for homestead exemptions. Eve year, as County Tax Assessor Gandolfo will inform you, there are al- ways some owners of. realty in Monroe county, which is eligible for homestead benefits, who forget to apply in time, and, therefore, are obliged to pay full taxa- tion. A driver’s license costs only a dollar, and yet many drivers automobiles in the county wait till too late to obtain a license without being subjected to un- dergoing examination, or, has often happened, be arrested fined. 3ut the timely matter now, regard, is the 1946 license plate, about 200 Monroe county automobile own- ers failed to buy by January 15, the dead- of a driver’s as and in ) line for their purchase without running a And what is that risk of being penalized. penalty likely to amount to? Peace Justice Esquinaldo said yes- terday, after warning owners. to. buy their licenses immediately, that each of them, if he is arrested for not having. a, license, will have to pay $30 more than the license costs. Seventy - three owners have served citations and one has had rant issued against him for not having 1946 license plates. But the period of citations has passed, and now summonses are being served on owners of automobiles that are found to be without current licenses. Beware of that $30 extra! a wart had There is nothing that quicker per- ides a man that he is a little better than an inherited fortune. In time, we suppose, a man can be accustomed to anything, except an income based on what his work is worth. FASHIONS TO “GET YOUR MAN.” Harry Conover, who operates a mod- el agenty, says that fashion designers “trying to give America a generation of ffat-chested, emaciated, ill-tempered wo- men, ‘who will be hard to live with’ after their health and dispositions have been ruined, Mr. Conover says that the trend of present fashions is toward, ‘meking wom- en look like matchsticks” and expresses the view that returning servicemen “want a good well-rounded bundle.” We have never been able to fathom the intricacies and mysteries of the thing that women call fashion. It has produced some silly examples of mass hysteria but, in view of the lack of sense shown by most men in the clothes they wear, it is not fit- ting for mere man to criticize the fair sex. Reports from New York, distributed the Associated Press, advise that the theme of spring fashions will be “Get? your man,” with resort to every known device of seductive styling to acc entuate ¢ fhe fem- are by inine figure and reveal it in large Htinks. While the*writer is not Ti"eirentation, and wouldn’t be worth traihweeéfche was, the trend of the styles reported are o. k. After all, clothes represent an important asset to all women and especially those who are interested in romantic attach- ments, We blame no unmarried woman spending all that she can on clothes. If she also knows, or learns, how to wear them-they make a smart investment. for Never make plans that you cannot carry out without the assistance of others; if you do, you will be disappointed. TO ATOM-BOMB WARSHIP While the Navy will not confirm the report, it is understood that the German heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen, now en route to the United States, will be used in test- ing the effects of atomic bombs at sea. The German cruiser was commission- ed in 1940 and survived the war although damaged upon several occasions. Taken over upon the surrender of Germany, the cruiser has been allocated to this country. The probability that the prize will be used in atomic bomb tests is based upon the conclusion that the Germans built sea- worthy vessels. Consequently, they will re- veal valuable information as to the power of modern warships to withstand the ter- rifie force of the atomic bomb. that | which } been (eS up at the bottom.” THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Whit Lacey she led his heart against the ap- cture she made in her rt against the old stone When he had become aware she was he had thought to drive on, but surely stranger, would not’ be g so beside a_ neglected untry road if she were notin | trouble. y I be of assistance?” knew he'd be like this— ng and dependable-looking,” th was thinking. “I’m glad I'm going to get to know him— Astrap on my saddle is broken.

It will hold until you get home.” “Good.” She noted his efficient movements. “You’re pretty good at fixing things, aren’t you?” He felt that no answer was needed. At last the saddle was secure. “There you are, Miss Lacey. Td go straight home if I were you.’ “Yes, of course, I will. You’ve been awfully kind—” “Not at all.
