a on wee eee “Jrered at Rey West, Florida, as second elase matter ott 7 eutitled to ry hes credit ‘edited in th paper ai ed here. Attorney General Watson, Tallahassee, Florida. Dear Tom: Don't imitate Don Quixote; it gets you nothing and nowhere. The Everglades National Park is a fait acompli. Remem- ber that! THE ORACLE. FAITH IN AMERICA Within the next few years the electric try plans to spend a total of four bil- lion dollars on a huge construction pro- gram. Every dollar of this astronomical eum will be spent in local communities and the plants and lines it builds will be load- ed with every form of taxation the author- ttles can think up. State and Federal regu- latory agencies will be alert to see that elect igumers are given the best pos- sible service at the lowest possible rates. There will be no running of the local citi- zenry to Washington, D. C., for funds to complete half-finished projects. The pow- er will be coming from business enterprises that will pay taxes right along with the erocery store, the newspaper, the bank and other local enterprise. Those areas where socialized power is in full flower cannot look forward to enjoying their normal share of ‘this ex- pansion program. Taxpaying industry can- not compete with tax-exempt, unregulated, politieally-managed projects. Probably a good part of the four billion dollars which the electric utilities plan to spend will be spent to forestall a future power shortage in sections of the country which still have confidence in the privately owned electric company. They afe planning years ahead —something political projects will never do, As the people who depend upon gov- ernment power dams have found to their sorrow, appropriations from’ Congress are # precarious foundation on which to build any plans because polities is always the motivating influence, not real good or re- sponsibility. It is indeed encouraging to find an in- dustry that has been badgered for more than a decade by deliberate efforts of pow- erful political groups to put the govern- ment into the power business, still with sufticient stamina and faith in America to launch a four billion dollar program of construction. It will be a sad’ day for our country if the socialists should ever sue- ceed in killing such initiative in private citizens—in favor of the unimaginative stop-gap fumblings that characterize: the bureaucrat in business. ime Thinking is very important, but no work was ever accomplished by thinking alone. The number of people in a community- is not as important as the kind of people who live there. ' UP OR DOWN A spokesman for the United States De- partment of Agriculture said, a few days ago, that prices of foodstuffs, particularly meat, are likely to become higher again before they show any decided decline. That announcement should be impor- tant to housewives in Key West, and they should make it a point to study carefully the advertisements of groceries and 'méat markets that are published in The Citizen. * For instance, we’ know’ of a -certain type of citrus juice that is sold, not by ad- vertisers, for as high as 28 cents a can. Yet it was advertised in Thursday's Citi- zen for as low as 10 cents a can. The American public, however, wil! fight determinedly ‘against the predicted inereases. And the people will win out, as they did a yéar ago when the prices for meats spiraled, with pork chops going to $1.25 a pound in some sections’ of ‘the United States. GO ila = Millions of Americans stopped eating meat’ for two or three weeks, and down came the prices. wet ‘A similar fight will be waged, wheth- er the price of corn falls or increases. It is the present price of corn, the highest in the history of the country, that’ is the chief cause of the uptrend’ in thé prices for meats, the spokesman explained. } | Farmers find, he added, ‘that they can thake larger profits Yelling cotn than feed- ing it to hogs and cattle.’ oa It will pay Key West housewives to read the advertisemerits of foodstuffs in The Citizen, whether prices go up ot come down. canis Readers of these paragraphs are an unustially alert group, as you' will agree. You can’t please any individual all of the time and you'van’t please evéry- } body any time. THE RIGHT POLICY Progressive Améyitan business has more and more been taking its’ problems direct to the consuming public. Instead of leaving its customers in the dark, it gives them facts. One of the latest examples of this is in the situation ‘which has ‘arisen in 12 states of the Midwest area where the greatly increased consumption of gasoline has required the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) to put into effect a systém’ of allocating supplies in the interest of fair treatment to all customers. In an advertisement which appeared in more than’1,700 daily and weekly newspapers in the Company’s territory, it gave the simple facts: Compared with 1941, motor cars in the area affécted ate using more gasoline. Tractors are using twice as much, There are four times as many Diesel locomotives burning fuel oil: Hundreds of thousands of homes’are using fuel oil. Many mote airplanes are in op- eration. £ ; Mr. A. W. Peake, president of the Company, says that although shortages of materials have delayed completion of ad- ditional refinery projects, the Company is producing as never’ before and expects to show an increase of 27 per cent by next spring. Shortage in pipeline capacity and tank cars retards the movenient of fuel | oil and finished products. This situation is being remedied, however, as rapidly as possible. : peniees Whether shortages develop in other parts of the United States, remains to be seen. The public can help alleviate the situation by careful use of oil products. Key West has many problems that can be attended to without money*or a new world order. : i oa “FLYING SAUCERS” From all parts of tHe United States come reports of mysterious “flying ‘sauc- ers,” which, according ‘to ‘observers? speed through the air. |! "+ There are’some reports which seem to | be authentic information, but most of those in a position of authority, suggest that'the | phenomenon is being perpetuated’ by imagination, although admitting that some freak ‘of nature’ may Have caused thé {hz itial report: cee a Bea — the tendency to discount the multiplied reports as fignienté*of ‘ji itabifiations, some Pe ee yr they ‘are “entirely authéntit.” One min reports that they are ‘eéimected with some atomic project experiments ‘bethg éondtict. ed ‘ih vafious parts ‘of the United States. However, Dr. Harold Urey says the sug- gestion of “transmutation — of atomi: ergy” sounds like “gibberish.” es THE KEY WEST CITIZEN NETWORK PROG!
