Navy officials admit that the decision was a serious one to make but that the course of the struggle that it was correct. By this they mean that our submarines inflicted heavy losses upon the enemy, crippling shipping facilities and probably shortening the war and sav- ing thousands of American lives. It should not be overlooked by Ameri- cans, however, that the policy of unre- stricted warfare was largely, the eause of our war with Germany/ii 1007 “atid. that the official utterang er this dou prior to that ster in yevel pc dong the. German practig# ss {EEN marine warfare. The acceptance o that ype attack is evidence: that the years brought about: a: reaj was the most effettive w: marines and that novel me initially condemned as uff subsequently accepted .as routine. There is no doubt about the damage that our submarines inflicted upon Jap- anese shipping. By far the larger portion of the enemy’s merchant shipping was destroyed by our undersea boats, not by aireraft as many people believe. The loss of ships forced the Japanese to abandon isolated garrisons, prevented supplies from reaching important battle areas and made it impossible for the enemy to shift troops for strategic reasons. proper, nd THE SCIENTIFIC CHANCE SRecent reports . indicate... a; serious shortage of men trained in | technical science. A great number of young men iho contemplated. engineering we ered the” ae sérvices” Rethennee se al chance for such training.’ Or their Breer, entered the armea’ services béforé they had a chance for such training. Or their careers in some such school were cut short by the call to the service. Many industries need more men with his sort of training than they are able to find. One estimate had it that there will be a shortage of over 50,000 such people fur years from now. A great future of industrial progress Hes ahead. New ideas, new products, new machines, new facilities will be worked eut. The men working on these problems will be like explorers in new country dis- eevering its resources, riches, and-oppor- tBnities. One would think there would be Many opportunities for individwal success. Science beckons to the youths, and asks them to become workers in this great field of, progress. — The person who is a good friend to the home town, finds the home town a good friend of him. It is the simple story of give and take. Nearly every town and city in the United States boasts of natural advan- tages, including the “best climate’. To not a boast but a fact. To convince your- state that Key West has the best climate is self ask the weatherman. has demonstrated | Lib J.next. five ¥ears aid as GLAMOR OF FLORIDA KEYS Apparent presence of oil in the well that is being drilled in Card Sound, Key Largo, has given at least two Key Westers visions of becoming millionaires. One of them told The Citizen that his acreage on Key Largo, before the discovery was made in the well, was valued by him at $100 to $200 an acre, but that now it is “price- less.” He explained that he used that term merely to mean; that he considers this is no time to sell acreage on Key, Largo. or any other of the keys,,and, he backed, up that, assertion by . pointing, out, that. the trustees of the Internal. Improyement:Fund of Florida recently said that ithe potential value of land on the keys was such they had decided not to sell any more acreage there at present. If oil is brought in at Key Largo, it will benefit many residents of Key West who own tracts on that key. One of them, during the 1925 boom, refused to sell his tract for three quarters of a million dol- lars, and has been kicking himself ever since. But if oil is found on that key, it will turn out that he was wise in not sell- ing in the boom days. However, regarding that sale, he has explained that the down payment was small, and that when the crash came, he would have had to reposses the, property s The same thing is true in many; other. casep (ot tracts that were sold° on’ ee cay every. one,.of stihe keys" nt cme Finding cbf) oikdnaKey-Largo, ar Big Pine Key, wot Stir! apmealty boom that would make the 1925"Activity appear in significant. But if oil is not found, it re- mains a fact the day will come when the Florida Keys will form the greatest chain of winter resorts in the world. The glamor that characterizes the South Sea Islands is present on the keys, and is at the doorstep.

WeClark; an offiei Teof we use Electri¢,.Corporation. "| is This analysis, Mr..Clark figured that appliances, from lighting’ fixtures ‘to ret frigerators, will find a $2,000,000,000-a- year market, that expanded electrification will take $1,000,000,000 or more, and that capital investments of utility com- panies to provide power will equal this sum. It is interesting to note that he esti- mates the country will need more than 7,- 000,000 new housing units in the next ten years and that the annual demand for electrical appliances is set at 3,000,000 refrigerators, 800,000 ranges, 2,500,000 washing machines, 2,000,000. vacuum | cleaners and 5,000,000 radios.

At the same time, it should be noted that the boon does not exist for families which do not have access to electric power lines. Nor does it exist for family groups whose incomes are so low that there is no money available for the purchase of appliances after the barest living standards have been met. .
