Both Senator Pepper and Mr. Smathers should appre-; ciate the invitations, and, come to Key West at their! carliest. opportunity. Both! have many friends here and; both are indebted ‘to this | city for fine support in their | political careers. Now that | the time has come when! they may be able to serve, Key West we shal] certain-| “Qy ‘expect them to do so to! the best ef their ability. | The pending aeunkicsitven | of Aerovias Q Airlines is not} ithe @nly problem that local) officials “and business jead- to discuss. with Senator Pepper and Mr, ars. Among other’ things, yy would Tike. to discuss the possibility of se- curing Federal aid for building a municipal audi- terium and also a moving picture theater for the col- ored residents of this city. Tt is important for Key West that Senator Pepper and Mr. Smathers accept the invitations to come here, | but it also is important to the two men, personally, if) they wish to have the con- tinued friendship and sup-/ port of Key West. There is the time of the. year when a hundred schol-} ars take a back seat in the! presence of a good linesman or a superlative back. When George Allen, of) the Reconstrection Finance | Corporation, was called; “sinister and sty,” he said,) “that's wonderful. You; know writers and column-/ ists do a fine job for the! taxpavers by checking up on | Phat kind of stuff. They keep | fellows like me on our toes.” | if servants of ‘the people) van't take it on the chin | when ther have it coming to) fhem, they should withdraw | ~~Fyom public He. J ibe always, on and on and | on, i everything in life, including) the Stock Market. We know of one Key West owner of stocks who wasn't jubilant over the rise in the stock market, and had not been dejected when the market recently went down and down and down, showing a paper loss of al- most ten billion dollars. He said the same thing! when the market went down as he did when the market went up: ; “The intrinsic value is still | the same. The only thing) that changes is the attitude ef the public. Psychology | plays a major role in the) rise and fall of stocks. For some reason that is not) rea@ily determinable at) times, the bulls go on a ram- | page, or the bears take over, | and at other times when you think the market should | go up because of good news, | it goes down, and when you | would think the market will fall because of bad news, it goes up. Good advice is, don’t play the market; buy out- right, and when stocks fall or rise, bear in mind that the intrinsic value, save in ex- ceptional cases, is as good | when there is a decline as | when there is an uptrend.”) What is true of the Stock: market is true of life in gen- eral. Everything changes, | including life itself. Change | is going on constantly. That is the scheme of creation, | 1 life possible on that planet, | and everything else in the) i wniverse that he can see in) gelden opportunity, the sky or can not see. { Today has its yesterday} and temorrow, and so it will| { Seme people seem to} think they are bearing one another's troubles when all they are doing is worrying about them.

CONTROLLED INCREASES The average American, making daily purchases for family use, is somewhat be-) wildered by the number of price increases that have been announced by the OPA from Washington. There is one fact to be re- | membered. however. The in- | creases are made by control officials and do not repre- sent helter-skelter advances made by seliers. The differ- ence is considerable and while the cest of living will probably move up appre- ciably, as a result of the in- creases allowed. it will be semething of a controlled advance with a ceiling es- The question is whether the OPA is able to police the nation effectively and pro- tect buyers against the prac- tices of unscrupulous sellers. In this work, the buyers of the mation can do their part and they should not hesitate to report any violation of the ceilings established. jfare. of which Mrs here in, =< j Commerce SSSOSSOSSOLESCOOLOeS HAL fa] Hi i it i i : : i i i | if l i | ception to the editorial, (caption ~-NOW IS THE TIME), appear- | ing in vour issue of Wednesday, Sept. 11, 1946, and implications therein.
