But the important point is that in the American way the majority of votes brings a decision clear to all. This is a time not only of local dis- sension. but also of national dissension. If | there were not need for a healthy critical attitude of those who are in power then there should not be Democrats and Repub- | licans. Long before the war when Repub- | licans were not well bearing their respon- sibilities and the need for new deeds be- came apparent, the Democrats went into power and those new things were; done.

Is it true! Is it fair! Does it need correction! The next step. is simple. Correct the situation! In correcting a situation it should be brought to the responsible body. If that body then hems and haws or fails to act, the next step is equally clear. Do it your- self or through another body which is live enough to get the accomplishment over. The main thing right now is to get Key West up to a modern city’s pace.

THE DARK The army now reveals that by the use of infra-red rays, American soldiers on the front lines in the Far East, were able to see enemy soldiers who tried to sneak up in the darkness toward the American lines. As the reader probably knows, infra- red rays enable one, with the use of a special device, to see in the blagkest dark- ness. Thus when a Jap soldier began to squirm through No-man’s Land, the American soldier, with his special‘ con- traption, could see what the y soldier was up to and, consequently take uaa tive aim. Another use for the deviee was Boon. nection with truck-drivers who could go speeding down the road without hts and, thanks to the infra-red rays, see al- most as well as in the daytime. want an adequate supply of sugar at all times at a reasonable price. There doesn't evem to be any doubt about that. % 7 i Saeet sugar producer in World, has been preparéd to make f palais just such an adequate ‘supply, - to the United “States Cuban Council in New York City, but has been prevéfited from doing so by imposed by the U. S. Govern- ie hie one will need to fear a sugar » even in war-time,” said a recent by the Council, “if the sugar ween the United States and Cuba it on a sounder basis.” S. Government figures show that Ouba supplied almost 60 per cent of the total sugar made available to the United States and the Allies in World War I and half the supply made available in World War UU. Cuba has maintained, . throughout war years, its high sugar pro- _ duction record when other suppliers of : the U. & market, for one reason or an- other, have been unable to do so. Cuba, according to official figures at = Washington, can produce sugar at a lower cost than any other major U.S, grower. = Cuba has demonstrated both the capacity and the willingness to ship an adequate ‘apply of sugar to U. S. consumers. Sugar-hungry Americans can serve their own best interests by insisting that low-cost Cuban sugar reaches their dining _ tables and the plants which use sugar for many other kinds of foodstuffs, ii Bit ro The first recorded garden was the Garden of Eden. And there is where all the trouble started. At Chicago in Soldiers Field recently, President Truman warned against the perils of war. He was followed by General Eisenhower who proclaimed against the evil of saber-rattling. wee toe os HAVE YOU LOST A BOND? money in the country, at least for some people. é The Treasury Department reports that $23,000,000 in 1935 Series A bonds have not been turned in for cash although interest on them stopped last year. The same is true about $13,300,000 worth of Liberty bonds bought during World War I. You might as well check up on your holdings. Maybe, and it is maybe, you have an interest in the $36,300,000.
