Certainly, if the United! | States wishes to have a hand! in maintaining the peace of | the world, it will be neces-| sdry for this country to, spend an adequate sum for! the Army, Navy and Air} Corps. This program should | not fluctuate in accordance | with the economic condition! of the nation, nor should it be substantially reduced in order to assure tax reduc- tions for the people of this; country. We are among those who bélieve that long - range economy is.served by a con- tinuing program of defense. In two wars, the nation has| been. compelled to mobilize} af exrbitant cost because of imperative necessity. This process has cost the taxpay- ers billions of dollars. It} might be avoided, if a fu- turé- emergency arises, by a policy of reasonable, but complete, preparedness. P@LITICALLY ANTIQUE ~The British House of Lords is a strange legislative institution, consisting of more than 800 Peers, with about 35 Socialist members. Theoretically, all legisla- tion has to be passed by the House of Lords, as well as by the House of Commons. Actually, the power of the House of Lords is limited and its existence depends almost solely upon the good- will of the House of Com- mons. A major clash between the two Houses is considered inevitable, but, in the mean- time, depsite demands that the House of Lords be abol- ished, the present . Labor Government shows no great hurry in the work of demol- ition. “The ingmnonnng number of highway accidents. indi- o ecataat the people of Monroe county, if they want to live, should give serious consideration to 4@ safety, program. | was a hard worker, Man.” At first thought one may think he could not be-; come interested in such a book because he is aware of the impossibility of making a man invisible. But. therein lies the art of a writer. He must first build up verisi- militude to make his theme plausible, and Wells gave a chemical formula that pro- duced, or was presumed to | produce, invisibility in sol-j there seems to be too little appre- ids. Then he goes on with the story, with hair-raising happenings that engross the interest.of the reader. Wells: turned. out many another best seller since the publication of. “The Invisible Man.” His “Outline of His- tory” we regard as his best work. We wondered, as we read that book, of the vast amount of research Wells had to. make to write so in- teresting a volume. But he and wrote interestingly regard- less of whether his subject was fact or fiction. And now he passes on after having lived his “day”, measured as almost 80 years as man measures time. One of the best ways to! make money is to save some of the money yeu are mak- ing now. Key West, 7 the only city in the United ; States that has not a hous- | ing shortage. When we think | of that condition, we should | think also of the type of houses that are unoccupied. Most of them are new and have modern conveniences, and will offer accommoda- tions for tourists that come here next winter. DULLES PESSIMISTIC John Foster Dulles is off to Europe, elong with an American delegation, to create “common ideals and standards” among the peo- ple of the world to assure future peace but he is a bit pessimistic about the enter- prise. Mr. Dulles says it is a race between what his group is undertaking and tatastro-| phe and; that if he had to bet right now, he would “bet on catastrophe.” If peace depends upon the im- mediate establishment of- common ideals and stand- ards. throughout the world the nations might as well be- gin mobilization. The idea that everybody has to be alike, in order to keep world peace, is a mis- taken assumption. All that nations, and their people, | have to decide is whether they want to rob their neigh- | While you, the glory of heaven{ Two-bedroom unfurnished house, bors.
