ag <7 — PAGE TWO , NO TIME TO SPARE Politicians in Key West, so far as the city election, three months away, is con- cerned, are standing on the sidelines, wait- ing for the “other fellow”, to announce his candiddacy.

That pa is merely an assumption, because one never ean’ tell what may happen in an election eampaigh. It requires only the entrance fof two or three men to start a “fever” among those Key Westers who are inclined to run for public office. Make your announcement now. That is good advice for any Key Wester who intends to run for the commissin. Waiting ‘for the “other. fellow” to make the first move is poor. polities. . Be amng the lead- e?s, flot the followers, in a political con- test. Any seasoned politician will tell you that is good advice. As usual, the men in office are the first to: announce, though there is at least ‘one Key Wester, who will enter the Demo- cratic prithary next May, who declared, as long as two. years ago, he would oppose Sheriff Sawyer. Of course, that was too '!Iong before election day to reveal gener- aily one’s decision to run for office. It Puts the man in office “on notice” and, naturally, as has been in the case of Sher- iff Sawyer, he begins campaigning quietly nnn, earlier than he would have done other- wise. But it is different i nthe matter of the | city commission. A candidate has no time ‘to spare if he intends to make a thorough canvass for. that office. om Juan. D.

Oregon, South Carolina and Virginia. FARMING IS OUR FIRM FOUNDATION FORWARD MARCH OF THE ELKS ou * ‘ 3 _ In this year 1947 there has been tre- Mendous progress on the farms. The area of the average Ameriean farm has grown nearly one-tenth in the past five years, ;from 174 acres in 1940 to more than 200 ,aeres up to date. More than 800,000 farms are receiving eJectrie service. The old methods of plowing the fields with horses: and doing nrost of the hard jobs of farming by back-breaking human labor has udergong tremendous changes. Every part of the country where there is good soil has been enriched-, large areas by conservation methods carried on by the National Government. Our farmers have automobiles and farm machinery, and good highways exist everywhere. Electric refrigerators, milk- ing machines, washing machines, radios, new furniture afd all kinds of modern improvements exists in all parts of our country. One correspondent writing from Iowa says that “everywhere farmers are out hainting their barns, repairing and enlarg- ing their corn cribs, cattle sheds and chick- en houses.” ° There is no way of disputing the fact that, war or no war, progressive farmers ave making more money than ever before. Phe crops this year*will be so large that there will be a huge export of wheat, corn, meat, and dairy products. It is impossible to tell just what is going to happen, but the best authorities in Washington say that agricultural ex- ports will be up as much as 4 billion dol- lars this year. The current issue of Etks Magazine is of unusual public interest.. Among its many activities the reports show that the State Association of Elks carried on en- tertainment programs ih 152 Veterans hos- pitals in forty-one States. Nobody nedds to be told that the Elks programs rank in Class A, 100 per cent, The Elks, from the very beginning of the organization Have always increased and broadened the humane and. charitable impulses of members of the Order. No: wonder that its recent annual report shows a gain of 84,932 members. The sub-ordin- ate lodges report expenditures for chari- table and welfare purposes of more that 5 million dollars. ' ‘ Current achievements ,of American Elks, from the Grand Lodges to the sub- ordinate lodges, are magnificent. ‘The whole force of these Lodges has been un- tiringly active in wartime and peacetime activities. Patriotism, humanity and fel- lowship—are recognized as the Founda- tion of the Order. " MARSHALL IS MASTER The lack of progress towards. World peace js certainly a disappointment to the American Government and to all of our people. But of one thing you may be sure, that is, that Secretary of State Marshall has a plan that may be considered definite and permaneut, and that the head of our State Departmet is not going to yield an inch to Stalin or Molotov. George C. Marshall became Secretary of State a little more than six months ago and the easiest way to express. our opin- ion of him in this editorial is to quote the words of columnist John M. Hightower, as follows: “George C. Marshal: has be- come the most powerful Secretary of State in history. cp iineitalaaiatcis eet on The moon is said to exert a great in- fluence over the tide; and also over the untied. The best way to get help in this world is te help yourself. WHY EUROPE SHOULD SCRATCH DIRT When the first s€ttlers settled in Vir- ginia and Massachusetts they “lived off the land.” They started at scratch. They caught fish amd shot wild game, and while they ate food brought with them from ‘England in their ships, they managed somehow to get maize from the Indians. In less time than has elapsed since the close of World War Il, they were raising their own crops on their own greund. Some of the Europeans might get along if they tried ont these old plans instead of depend- ing upon this full-grown United States to feed them. ritchie perce Pasadena, California, has a Disaster Corps, a part of the city government, te cope with emergencies such as fire, floed, earthquake, storm an@ the like, but pre- hibited from interfering with Iabor con- troversies, THE.
