SSOCIATION wen (IMPROVEMENTS KEY WEST ADVOCATED BY THE CITIZEN Ie More Hotels and Apart To the Readers: Wonder what word the Greeks had to induce the United States to pull their chestnuts out of the fire? THE ORACLE. “WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW” The Rockefeller Founda- tion which gave away $19,- 481,576, including nearly $19,000,000 of its principal, im promoting valuable work in public health, the medi- ealy natural and social sci- ences and in the humanities, submits an intresting report of ‘hs activities. The dilemma of society, aeintelligence increases and man aparently lacks neces- sary controls, leads the Foundation to peint out: “We are in the midst of a revolution/in our physical environment so vast and so rapid that our minds can sear ep up with it. But there other things that cannot /keep up with it, either + notably our social ideas, aur habits of life and our pditical and economic institudons. “Ou political institutions, ample, are mainly . but, our swiftly evolv- chnology is largely a eth century phenom- enon, We have one foot in a Cfvilation that is dying and anotPer foot in a civilization thatis struggling to be born. Congequently we live a kind of Bifurcated existence ,and the gap between what we knaw and what we need to knew becomes” wide and «deeper. “As a result there is de- ‘veloping a dangevous tilted imation in our society, an intellectual imbalance, awhich can no longer be Aenoved) Our knowledge of -haman behavior and social relations is not adequate to wive us the guidance we! heed; and the fundamental isue of our time is whether we can develop understand- ine and wisdom — reliable enough to serve as a chart in| ‘working out the problems of | heman rleations; or whether | we shall allow our present | lopsided progress to develop te a point that capsizes our civilization in a catastrophe | of immeasurable — propor- tions.” The words are those of Raymond B. Fosdick Presi-| dent o: the Foundation. They do not represent the views of a radical socialist, | or a communist. They should as a warning to some; erve of our self-satisfied citizens | ing the virtues of the Amer-| who think that all problems cap be settled by proclaim-' || front, off White | TWC GOOD SUGGESTIONS While it is an “economi | blow’ ’ to Key West as Mage} jor Demeritt sajd, to have t War Department declare; “surplus” harbor “defehaes ‘in Key West, yet mitich good to the progress in this‘area | will come oui of that decision | if suggestions made by City; Commisioner Louis Carbon-{ihalf years- by the Key West- el, which meet with the ap- proval of Commissioner Hunter Harden, and by Mayor Demeritt can be put | into effect. Mayor Demeritt suggests that’ efforts be made to con- vert the West Martello Tow- er into a monument, and Commisssioner — Carbonell | advocates the creation of a recreation area for colored | people in the Fort Taylor| reservation. If a part of the reserva-| tion can be obtained from, the War Department for the purpose suggested by Com- missioner Carbonell, it will solve a problem with which Key West has been beset ever since colored residents were denied further use of the aneanian for sea bath- ing and playground pur- pose. Colored folks bathe along the shore in the Fort ) Taylor reservation, and, when that privilege was denied them, they went in swimming off the souther- | ly cnd of Whitehead street. | Many complaints, because of the noise .made by bath- ers, were made to the city | about their yaing the shore ead ‘street, | as a bathing place. As things now are, color-| ed residents of Key West} are without a recreation area.. They do not have a! field large enough for child-' ren to use in playing soft-| ball. Carbonell intends to go to Washington to try to have that part of Fort Taylor re-' servation, used for many years by ‘the colored people, restored to them. Whether or not the West Martello Tower is made into a monument, as . suggested by the mayor, it would be well to use it, as Key West- ers used’ it, for more than half a century, as a recrea- tion area. Back in those days the west tower was called the First Tower, and the east tower, the Second Tower, Both‘ were used for outings by, members of Sunday schools and fraternal orders, though ,the First Tower was by far it cause population city. So, if the idea of a monu- ment is not adopted, the First Tower could be put in- to good condition to be used as an outing center for adults as well as children. its nearness to the Wher an aristocracy of worth and of service re- places that of wealth and pride and ostentation, the} wetter world will have arriv:' es There is an old story of a man coming in and asking] ‘ for a glass of whiskey, be-|, cause he was hot, of another who asked for one because he was cold. and of a third because he liked it. GEORGIA AND THE LAW The double-governor uation in Georgia has been solved without civil warfare and without any effort on the part of the acting gover- nor, Herman Talmadge, to thumb his nose at the power of the Court. This will disappoint some of those who foresaw revo- lution in Georgia a result of the peculiar situation which led M consider hi lf governor. Regardless of what happens in the State in subsequent; elections the: outcome of the dispute has, no law and order in Georgia.
