As a matter offact started out to Commiinize- the world and it seems to have a good part.of urope interested in Communism. While | the British are quarreling with Russia. the MULTIPLICITY OF “BANGS” Politics went off locally with a “bang” shortly after the Christmas and New Year’s holidays, but the sound from the “bang’’ has pretty well died dut since then in Monroe county, except in what we call the lower and upper chains of keys: In Marathon, adult residents still con- tive to have a lively interest if the com- ing. primary, with W. A. Parrish, ehaifman of the. Mofitoe county commission, in the vanguard of the activity. He said to The Citizen: he ‘considers ‘voting is the greatest ; oes aceorded Ameticans, and added that he is striving to’ have every Marathon Tesident, who is eligible, to qualify for the primaries. Though Marathon is a small commun- ity, Mr. Parris estimates that the qualified list there will number 125. On a basis of comparative populations, Key West should have 5,500 registrants for the May prim- aries. Up in Tavernier, interest in the com- ing election is maintained, though not at as high a pitch as at Marathon, despite the fact that Peace Justice E. R. Lowe is a candidate for the Democratic nomina- tion for state senator. The Citizen has been asked, in viéw of the preponderating, vote in'th€ mainland part of this:senatorial dis trict, Ju idges Lowe's reason for qualifying in the senate) race. That reason is best known to himself, but: we: have! been: in- formed that his opposition is directed chiefly” ‘against one of the other can- didates. That may or may not be true; and, so far as we know, he may be running, as the political boys say, ‘‘on his own’’. Yesterday a former city officer holder remarked that, in making his rounds of the city, he had not heard any discussion of the local political races, and what he said accords with our observations. But the former activity will be revived, and, as election time comes near, there will be a multiplicity. of “bangp’’.

BATTLESHIP WITHOUT BIG GUNS The unfinished battleship, Kentucky, on which $66,900,000 has been spent, will | be completed just as soon as the lessons learned in the atomic test can be applied to her design. Naval experts say that the new dread- naught will be the world’s most. powerful ship but admit that~she might not carry sixteen-inch guns,” which | have hitherto : been redapded asithesmost powerigl naval ! offensive Weapon. Instead there is spéecula- RENWATShip may carry@pPARAtS todischarge guided missiles with a much “longer range than the traditional big guns. ° The plan to complete the Kentucky =follows the decision of Reconversion Di- ~rector John W. Snyder not to scrap thirty- =seven unfinished naval vessels. Instead, he Shas decided that it would be economy to “complete eleven ships, to put eighteen in San “as is” reserve and to scrap only eight. = The nation has already spent $80,- = 000,000 on the sleven ships to be complet- med and it will take $47,000,000 more to = finish them. On the eighteen going into the Sreserve, something like $93,000,000 has been spent and if it is decided, at some Tlater date, to complete them, the-cost will ~be only $65,000,000. Of the eight that are »to be scrapped, some $24,000,000 has been’ Sspent, but it would take around $75,000,- - 000 to finish their congtruetion. Most public ‘speeches involve a_tré- mendous waste of time on’the part of audiences. It is much easier to bequeath wealth than intelligence which explains the dis- sipation of some large fortunes in this = country.

In spite of protestations to the con- trary, the President’s plan for a central- ized government-contfolled medical sys- tem cannot be other than oppressive. It is to be financed by compulsory contribu- tions, directed by overhead authority and subject to all the evils of politics. Doctors oppose such a system because of the de- struction it would wreak on medical standards. However, more than medical standards should be considered. The pub- lic will do well to ponder the potentialities ofa program that would ‘put tens of thous- pi of doctors under the heel of Federal ofity, aHpina their; will. Jf,it;can be emit ield of medicine, it can be f one to other “@roups. = If this countrys’ te" Have w Sound pro, gressive medical system it must respect the professional judgment of medical men in matters pertaining to medicine, and also respect their rights as a minority group. The progress of every community, re- gardless of size, depends upon public- spirtied, unselfish leadership, not the nar- row ,dog-in-the-manger picayunish, atti- tude of the citizens in whatever walk of life. A STUNNING IDEA ¥ Senator Tydingsj*tonservative Demo- crat from Maryland, steps out in front of the, “madding#€ro' and asks President Truman to summon @ .world disarmament conference; to outlaw maintenance of land, éea and orees. by: all Nations after January 1, 1950. “The time has come for a show-down,” Senator Tydings told the Senate, and continued: “If we are going to support the United Nations Organiza- tion, then all nations should be willing to disarm. If we ate not, the United Nations Charter won’t be worth the paper it is | written on.” The Maryland statesman ad- vocated complete disarmament, except for continued occupying forces in Germany and Japan, and a World poliee force un- der the UN Security Coancil, with limited small arms to preserve law and order and ‘enforce disarmament conditions. es US, bro the $s, none can |: go his way aloife ; all' that! ‘wie fpitt into the.
