The AFL thinks likewise, But; the .CIO does not, and has started ‘suits in courts that’ will amount ‘to! ers! What billions, Even if the interpretation of the CIO is correct, it is likely that the Supreme court will reverse itself, as, it has done before. If this decision were put into effect it would destroy our economic system by put- ting almost every business out of commission. But there is a tacit understanding, of which we should take cog- nizance, and that is that one cannot éxact impossi- bilities of any one, and this sioti “vertainly comes'|the mention of the name of ey Wet Citinen Psychologists elaborate e edited chology, gives many illustra-! ‘ea in| tions of the amplitude of the -obit-j at times was almost interm- charged Poe ‘the Fate 04-10 eents | inable. by So it was of a Citizen edi- 6 18 | to ‘andj death of Mrs. merai | Drought to mind “Gus” Ar- f pablian nold who was active in the TRAIN OF THOUGHTS the subject of the associa- tion of ideas because, were it not for that association, our thinking would be little more than instinctive. William James, brother author, who left this coun- try to become an English titizen, in his book on psy- association of ideas. Ih his teollege lectures, he suggest- ed to students to think of red or blue or some other color, and then asked what train of thoughts the think- .j ing of red, for instance, start-, ed in their minds. The train xr when he heard of the Arnold. It cigar industry in Key West for many years. Then the train of thoughts went back to the time when 8,000 residents gained a_liveli- hood in Key West from the manufacture of cigars. At break of day, in those | times, if you chanced to be;® in the street, you would see hundreds of men and scores of women on their way to} the cigar factoriés. And it was not imusual for them to open a gate quickly and sidestep into a yard, closing the gate behind them, when they saw a herd of cattle being driven up from Cur- ry’s wharf to the butcher pen, one of which was on} the Garrison Bight at the foot of Virginia street, where Bayview Park is at present. ‘And sometimes a steer of a bull broke from a herd and streaked through the streets, ready to charge in- to any _petson that came within his view. A good many persons were injured, but, so far as we can recall, we don’t.know of any man or woman who was killed. “Look out! A ‘steer’s on the rampage!” When that warning was spread throughout the town at dawn, persons in the streets measured with their eyes the distance between gates, for all lots, on which there were houses, were fenced in at that time. But ‘the cigarmakers, the strippers, pigket's, the pack- n industry that was to Key West, with the payrolls running into tens of thousands of dollars weekly! Everybody had money. | that is, everybody wished to work, for there was work for all. Wages or salaries were not high,} but neither were the prices} me unaer is for commodities high. A dollar in those days “travel- ed” several times farther than a dollar does today. All those thoughts and many more came to mind by inthe scope of impos-!Gus Arnold. y of performance. There will be probably no grave consequerices as a re- sult of this unthinkable ukase of the Supreme Court, and should these develop, Congress, undoubtedly, will step in to negate what oth- erwise would prove to be an economic disaster of impon- derable effect. SKYSCRAPER HOME The long discussion as to the location of the perman- ent home of the United Na- tions has been ended by the offer of John D. Rockefel- ler, Jr., ot give the interna- tional organiaztion an $8,- 500,000 site in New York City. and the agreement of the city itself to pay an,ad- ditional $2,000,000 for odd plots adjoining the area. Acceptance of the gift means that the headquar- ters of the world organiza- tion will be located along the Eagt River in Manhattan and that the world capital will be something of a sky- scraper affair. After all, New York, with its polyglot population, is a logical se- lection for the site of an or- ganization which will draw visitors from all parts of the earth. Our financial the present time, is: is no hurry to buy, WORSE THAN POLIO Nearly every parent in the United States is familiar with the menace of polio- myelitis and the campaign that is waged annually to secure funds to aid the vic- tims of this dread disease. It may come as something of a surprise, learn that in 1944 whooping cough caused the death of more children than polio. The U. S. Public Health! Service recorded 1,878} deaths from _ whooping cough in that year compar- advice, at There ed with 1,361 deaths from x polio. Health. experts assert that hundreds of unneces- ‘sary deaths occur annually | because parents do not take | elementary precautions to prevent exposure of their ehildren to the dangerous) tavages of whooping cough. | Most of the fatalities in un- + complicated cases occur} among infants, but among older children inflammation | of the brain counts for one- third of the whooping cough deaths. tsbanhah aoe 7 fs but who! however, toi a THE REY WEST CITIZEN 2 onexibs Fok pices an immense amount of time lost getting ‘these mien andi equip- Editor, The Citizen: u xt back to civilizatién after a There are times in life when a ‘a ip in a remote area.
