Drury, di- rector 3 the Park Service, recomm@nds that the ban against airfields within or} low-flying airplanes over Federal parks be perpetuat- ed Mr. Drury believes that: take-offs and landings id have a harmfal ef- t on wild life, increase danger of fire and make it necessary to dis- turb natural landscapes if proper runways and servic- ing facilities are provided. We are inclined to agree with hi recommendation, | which is based on the belief that many visitors go to the park because of the op- portunit to enjoy peace and quiet in the midst o upertative scenery.” While recognizing the ad- Vent of the aerial age. we do hot think that it is necessary ibordinate every other national interest to the air- plane.

Singleton, commanding officer of the Army contin- gent in Key West, was a brief but admirable outline of the code of ethics that govern “| the United States army. _ Without making any com- parisons, it can be said con- Scientiously that the behav- ior. of army men in Key West before, during and since the conclusion of World War 11 has béen almost unbeliev- ably good. Soldiers, stationed in Key West, were away from home, as were all other service- men, yet. civil authorities had very little trouble with them. The war had been more than two years old be- fore a soldier was arrested in Kgy West for a law viola- tion. Offhand ,The Citizen can not recall the number of arrests of soldiers since 19- 39, but the number was fewer than half a dozen. Except for seeing soldiers on the streets, it was hard to believé at times that several thousand of them were sta- | tionéd in the Army Barracks j and at Fort Tay lor. Night after night .some- times, servicemen were ar- ined | | } rested either by the po jor the sheriff's force, but j|none was a soldier. Fre- | quently, The Citizens heard | remarks commending army men in Key West for their ‘generally good behavior | while off duty, | The United States Army | may well be proud of the way its personnel in Key; | West have conducted them- | selves in their dealings with | the civilian populatior. It ‘has been in keeping with , this paragraph in Colonel 'Singleton’s directive: “The policy of this com- _mand is to cooperate fully ‘in every way possible with | local officials, particularly law-enforcement agencies. This policy must and will be followed.” | The soap opere, we sup- | pose, is entitled io a place omewhere, but the question is where. “COLORED” MEN OBJECT From Capetown, South | Africa, the Colored Advisbry | Council, an official body, demands full political rights. for nearly 1,000,000 color- Jed South Africans and ex- presses opposition to any improvements in the status of Indians unless colored persons receive similar rights. It is interesting to note ‘bel in South Africa, there is a racial distinction be- | tween the 1,000,000 colored |South Africans, who are half-caste, and the 7,000,- | 000 Negroes. Most of the “colored” are located in Cape Province where they enjoy certain franchise rights but the ad- visory council, which | is composed of men of educa- tion, mostly school-teachers with university degrees, pro- tests the “tendency to asso- ciate Indians with. Europe- ans in public buildings and to herd coloreds” with navies (Negroes). Money may not be roman- tic, but it explains a lot of ronfance. AUTO PRODUCTION UP The automobile industry ‘occupies front rank in im- activities and, therefore, it is interesting to rate of approximately 3,500, 000 cars a year. This is not leaders in the industry pect to. reach top output early in the summer.

In the language of Jesus of Nazareth, John 10:32, “Many good works have I showed you from my Father; for which of these works do ye stone! me.” T have. lived in this island 25 sargue that boot-legging will be eliminated if this dead law is canned, which is something like iS | sour that if you burn down your city you won't need a fire | department. None of these seems to be the key issue. What IS important is | that the majority of the citizens of Key West have endorsed a statute which provides that on one day of the week we shall have peace and leisure. This! homely desire, which is not the single example in the United j States, does not by any means | appear to be an attempt to légis- | late morality. What is being dis- | credited by thoSe seeking to re-! | Voke it is the basic validity of | the law itself—the desire of the | people. They geek to frustrate , whatever effectiveness the law | years.

The comments and criticisms which were raised in regard to the Sunday liquor amendment show the extent of feeling which this problem gener- ates. It appears to me, however, that all sides developefi formidable smoke-screens but inaccurate fire power. Lo NR: MARY PERRY ORDER OF UBLECATION What, after all, is at stake? "°° 2)" se ee The forces of religion heatedly Sou ue urge the continuation of a sober] pear to t Sabbath which. obviously, pro- } *¢@inst motes the success of their work. Those interests whose only aims are lucrative urge the abolition of this custom on the premise that it means more income and therefore. more happiness to all of Key West. A third group takes the de- tached and intellectual view that since we cannot legislate moral- ity, the best and easiest course to follow is to legalize what has eet °6 carried on illegally.
