MARCH ON AND ON Man pushes on and on, regardless of the violence of Nature or the death and de-'| struction caused by ma- chines, chemical . formulas or, anything else of his own invention. Man has come up out of prehistory, fighting against every danger, to what he is today because of his deter- mination not to cry quits. It is due to that urge that he PRESS th epublica: credit. redited in survives today. 2 Sess te Mt oF Rot rt thie ees" a the local news Recently The Citizen has ‘00|.published several stories about plane crashes, result- ing in the loss of life. One story, which did not entail the loss of life, aptly dem- onstrated the stuff of which man is made. A plane, leaving La Guar- dia Field in New York, erashed in making a forced landing, but it was not a ma- jor crash and nobody was killed or injured. Thirty - two passengers were on the plane, and when another plane was pressed into service to take them to Europe, all of them, except one, resumed the trip.

West Lighthouse , ..100° Years Ago The Key West Lighthouse has an interesting history. It has same distinction, too. There has been much controversy as to what that distinction is. Some say it is the only inland light- house in the nation, while others say that there are other inland lighthouses, but that ours is the only lighthouse within a city lim- it in the United States. Be that as it may, it is certain that in ad- dition to aiding mariners out at sea, there is one other aid that the Key West Light could ren- der the Southernmost City. In the past, to be more specific, | | AMSTERDAM. — (AP) — Al- most half of the machinery taken from the Netherlands by Germans during the war has been ,| brought back, according to’L. F. Otto, Dutch commissioner-gen- eral in Germany. He said that this figure does |not take. into account vast ;amounts of equipment that was destroyed in Germany, but. ref- ers to that which still remained intact when the war ended. Of 464. railway, locomotives taken from Holland, 405 have been returned, Otto said, as well as all of the 301 streetcars which the Nazis seized as. booty. Twen- ity per cent of all stolen art ob- jects, representing 70 per cent of | the artistic value, have also been retrieved by Holland. before the war, this was always) Basic American a most interesting tourist attrac- | tion.
