If he happens to be a type, insistent upon his rank, he can com- pel everybody to agree with him, regard- less of whether this is safe for the nation, or-not. The proposed merger of the armed forees has not yet secured Congressional approval and it is a mistake for Mr. Tru- man, or anybody else, to put. pressure upoa men in the services to compel them to.keep silent. The permission to testify befdre Congressional committees, if called, is\@ partial admission that the ban is an error. ‘sir se =” INTERESTING ASSOCIATION The information service of the Afiierican Legion calls attention to the fact that a post, recently formed in Denver, Celerado, had 13 Chinese-American and 4 Japanese - American charter members, whose bond was the common service in thé Army of the United States. > This is, of course, interesting but it would be a mistake to conclude that real racial goodwill is always served by such @ combination. It would be too much to expect that the citizens of this country, of Chinese descent, would get along with- out friction if compelled to be closely as- sociated with citizens of Japanese descent. The effort to achieve tolerance in racial affairs is not always helped by any forced association of the representatives ofspecial groups. In fact, such proximity often tends to magnify minor incidents which, if they occurred among people of tle'same group, would not cause friction. pS i al ey Tt was the painters, the greatest of whom was Leonardo da Vinci, rather than the. doctors, who first opened the eyes of men to the beauty and balanced organiza- tion of the human body. This man was gteat in every endeavor; he was great as aseulptor, writer, inventor. Among his inventions which numbered almost one hundred were models for a submarine and an airplane, and last but not least, he was the inventor of the lowly wheel-barrow, WILL COME TO PASS The Florida Keys, in not many years from now, may be referred to as the Venice of America, or America’s South Sea Islands, or probably some other name that is more apt will be chosen, but what- ever their designation may be, you may be confident that, between Key West and j the mainland, there will be hundreds of beauty spots on the shore of the Florida” Keys. Twenty years ago The Citizen pub- BS | lished an editorial in which J. W. Ricketts, one of the vice presidents of thé Coral Gables Corporation, was quoted as ‘de- claring: “The time will come when the out- standing winter resort in this country will be the Florida Keys. As soon as they are ‘discovered’ by half a dozen men of money, watch out for major develop- ments that will convert stretches of man- groves into beautiful settlements or vil- lages of small cities. That is one of the certainties of the future that will have to do with providing recreation and enter- tainment for the country’s teeming mil- lions. The Florida Keys possess, as does no other part of the country, the essen- | tials of winter resorts—climate,. fishing, sea bathing and inland boating.” it appears to The Citizen that the developments that Mr. Rickets forecast are now in process of being realized.’ At’ scores of places along the keys improye- ments are being made, some of them on large scales, as at the. Matecumbes and Key Largo. On the lower keys there is activity also in providing accomodations for the thousands of people who yearn for recreation in the sunshine in the winter. Outstanding among the lower keys where those developments will be made are No Name, Big Pine, Sugar Loaf and Boca Chica. County Tax Assessor Claude A. Gan- dolfo and his chief clerk, J.

Instead of doing away with this organiza- tion, the remedy lies in doing away with the operators in the black market. It can be done but not by a wishy-washy policy. Make seller and buyer equally guilty and punish severely all offenders; that will solve the question. THE CATCH IS HUMAN NATURE Usually when: people are foreed into. doing what they do not want to do, or think .they’ cannot, do, or when natural laws are contravened by man-made laws, the reaction is incaleulabl ompulsory health insurance is one of these dinstances. If it is adopted, the financial cost may boomerang in unexpected ways against the millions it was designed to protect. For example, it is proposed that half the cost of government-controlled medical care be borne by employers who would be taxed an amount equal to the medical care payroll deduction of the employe. This sounds good to the worker but many economists believe that such a levy against employers would so upset the economic system that, in the end, the worker would have to pay both his own and his em- ployer’s share. According to an authority who has spent fifteen years studying the actial working of compulsory health insurance in various countries, “this might happen in any one of a number of ways. The price of goods might go up, and his (the workers) wages buy less. The employer might substitute machinery for some workers, and cut production to lay off others. Unemployment would result, and a wage cut would follow. Certain economists contend that the resulting wage plus the employer’s tax would just equal the form- er wage. If such a contention is true, the worker will have to decide whether health insurance is worth 6 per cent of his in- come to him. That is almost half again as much as he now pays—on the average— | for medical attention.” It is the old story.
