Newspaper in Key west | concerted tivic pride in Key} iorn ‘at Worcester, Mass., West that manifests itself in | a dogged determination to promote the interests of the city? We are familiar With these Key Westers who do). not bother to go to the polls to vote but are always | A. the first to complain about the men elected or about the way the city or county is conducting its affairs. All of us are familiar with the answers to the questions asked; all of us know about the Key West- ers who don’t bother to vote; all of us know about local taxpayers who don't complain until they receive tax statements. Stories about the local school board’s meeting that | was held Monday night in ' the court house appeared in | The’ Citizen and_ out-of- town newspapets for a week before the time for the meet- ing. And yet only one tax- payer was present at the meeting, aside from teach- ers and members of the board. who are taxpayers. What will be the after- math of this disregard for a taxing agency? Any Key Wester easily can find the answer to that question also. Hundreds of Key Westers, | they receive their ther, owr users of capita}| Statements for county taxes, will be driven to gover ment lending agencies, wif) the inevitable evils tha: atise when investment is. made, profit, but to augment poli-| be tieal power, . . . For the ‘Little People’ the prospect would be much as the Lon- “doh ‘Sunday Times lately stated it: ‘The worker will face a single vast monopol- ist employer — the State — _, Whom -he can neither emu- bé. avoided_if the so-called Common Man will consult his own interest instead of letting demagogues and ex- ecutive secretaries of leftist committees define it for him. If he did that, he might even champion the right of the investor to his just share of the pie, if only on the ground that, when you come down to éarth, we aré all investors.”".~ : Government domination of industry, like government ownership of industry, is the sure and inevitable road to Statism. That is why we must keep private enterprise alive—and to keep it alive we must allow it adequate earnings on the people’s _ savings it represents. MEXICAN VOTING While the voting proce- dure in. the United States may not be perfect and a great amount of looseness in some sections of the country probably prevails, no one ean deny that it is somewhat superior to the Mexican sys- tem, recently inaugurated there. New balloting laws are complicated that on the day after most of the voting had taken place in Mexico’s re- cent presidential election, ever 200 voters in Mexico City stood patiently in line, after. having stood there all night! In the United States, if the voters were subjected to} similar delays and discom- forts, it would probably be » safe to say that next morn- ing the line would have dis- appeared. In fact, many voters here would never en-} ter such a line, even if their candidate were not elected. | coo einen here nist Neen Experience. is an expen-| sive school But fools will learn in no other way. Tt is almost as hard to maké peace with the Rus- sians as it was to whip the Germans. Why the world does not get better-any faster, a wit once remarked, is because good people get tiréd of be- ing good faster than bad people get tired of being not to produce et be claim: nd look what they've taxed for now!” e complaint then will of no avail. The school | board, in accordance with the law, duly advertised the meeting, duly advertised the tentative budget, and ONE taxpayer was present at the meeting! The Citizen has endeav- ored hundredsof times to arouse Key Westers to a sense of their civic duties..A-} i few days ago it editorially discussed conditions with which we ate faced when it was announced that 400 men would lose their jobs. Captain Saunders, who not only is a good commanding officer but. also a kindly man, expressed the hope that the men would get jobs elsewhere. Captain Saunders has. not been in Key West long and is not as familiar as we are with local first question that came to mind with us was, “Where! are'they going to get other) jebs?” We asked the ques- tion and have not tried to} find an answer to it. In- stead, we loll supinely on a raft while it drifts with the current. We seldom at- tempt to buck the current. | When we do buck it, the bucking is merely a flurry. It soon dies out. The lesson Key Westers have always needed to learn is to buck determinedly and never give up. - Drive right— and more pedestrians will be left. “SOME PROGRESS” Secretary of State James F. Byrnes reports that “some progress” has been made in connection with the effort to establish peace in Europe. This is encouraging but should pot cause us to over- look the important issues that remain to be adjusted. |Perhaps greater progress will be made when the Peace convenes in Paris late this month to discuss trea- ties for the smaller nations and» we hope, the four for-| eign ministers will be able; to get together on problems concerning Germany and! » Austria. It should not be overlook: | ie of the Plaintiffs acquired by | ed by the _people of this country that, under the rule requiring unanimous consent | of the Big Four, it is im- possible to make any effec- tive progress without the) cooperation of Russia. While | the Russians talk very much | about cooperation, they have | failed to give ground on is-| sues and seém somewhat bent on having their way upon all matters concerning the new set-up in Europe. | .a\t year I paid only so} conditions.
