Truman, The White House Dear Harry Useless we operate more sensibly than we have been doing since the close of Werld War Ul, this country of ours | will be caught in a very bad depression ne way the worst ever THE ORACLE, GUILTY JAPS ESCAPE DEATH We ere not particularly blood-thirsty, bet the sentence recently given to various Japetee officers for mistreatment of American airmen on Truk seems to be a Wttle bit on the soft side. The Japanese were tried for conduct- ine & series of fiendish medical experi- mente iv 1044. The testimony showed that ten American airmen were murdered, but the details are worse than the simple charge of murder. While a Navy captain was sentenced to be hanged, two other officers who con- ected an experiment to determine if pearing or bayoneting were more effi- clent, got only twenty years. Another of- fieer, whe decapitated two prisoners, got only fifteen years, Another, who strangled two of the vietima, after they had survived tourniquet applications and the loss of thelr feet through dynamite explosions, get life imprisonment. Ten others, who Perticipated in stabbing tests, got ten years if the guilt of the Japanese naval of- jeors were clearly established before the Miltary Commission, those who partici- pated in the mistreatment of American eviatore deserved the death penalty. It should wot be inflicted solely for revenge aspen the guilty Japanese naval officers, het in order that the United States keep feith) with men who fight for it. There should be no misunderstanding, ty any nation, at any time, of the firm tetention of this country to punish any- body who mistreats American officers or men The United States, as a nation, is un- der an obligation to protect its fighting men against inhuman treatment when cap- tured by an enemy country. During the corre of « war, it ie practically impossible te mplish this duty, but there should be « firm resolve to remember the dead end punish the guilty Should we become embroiled in an- other war, it micht save the lives of some American boys for the enemy to know that, in the long re punishment will inevit- ably come to those who mistreat our sol- diers, sailors or airmen The French 5 ampenved in India in 1665, before the Englich, who were more enter- —— FIGHTING PRICES Some Key West housewives are exer- cising care if not concerted opposition to high prices, as is being done in many parts of the country. With butter at $1.05 a pound in New York, we wonder how much higher the pricé would have beeh were it not for margerine, which millions of families in the United States have substituted for but- ter. Food experts recently declared, after a thorough investigation, that margarine is just as nutritious as. butter. Both these commodities are enriched with vitamin A, margarine with 15,000 units. Except in the larger cities, the buyers’ strike in practically every part of the United States has brought down prices of some commodities. In some sections the prices for meats have been lowered slightly. While there is still some talk of calling & special session of congress to pass a law establishing price contro}, the latest infor- jers. mation from Washington is that congress will not be reconvened until the regular session in January. Judging from com- ments by senators and representatives, action will be taken at that time to eurb the price uptrend, should it continue till then. Retail prices in Key West groceries compare favorably with those in-many cities, and are lower than in New York, Philadelphia and Boston, which show in- ereases greater than in any other section of the country. ‘ The wearing of diamonds is not as eom- mon as in days gone by, but if you are in- terested in buying a diamond and desire the purest see that they are color- less and water-clear. THE POLITICAL DOCTOR The Wagner-Murray-Dingell compul- sory health insurance bill was by-passed by the last session of Congress. In all probability it will be debated and brought to a vote during the next session. It is thus a live issue, whose significance should be thoroughly understood by the American people betore Congress convenes again. Raymond Moley accurately described the measure when he said: “It proposes a vast range of services for practically ev- eryone who wishes free serviee...__ It-caw- ers all sorts of medical, dental, nursing and hospital services. In part, it should be paid for by a tax on wages and on payrolls and, in part, by general taxation. Its ramifications go into state and local public health, into hospitals, private voluntary health associations and the like. ... : “Nothing was ever conceived or de- vised which would more effectively re- duce the medical profession to depend- ence on the government and tie state and local agencies to the wheels of Federal government. .. . It is a threat whieh de- serves far more public attention than it has yet been receiving.” No one can aecurately determine the financial cost of this proposal. The best estimates place it at between §4,000,600,- 000 and $6,000,000,000 a year. It would be a very long step toward complete so- cialization of medicine. It would make doctors employes of the state, and embroil them deep in politics. It would discourage experiment and research, jand destroy initiative. And, finally, it would undercut the finest system of medieal care existing in the world. Successful business men knew hew to hire brains to work for them. It’s being done everywhere, and Key West is no ex- ception. SAYS WORLD NEEDS FOOD The assumption that the need of the world for foodstuffs is declining was dis- sipated by the statement of former Presi- dent Herbert Hoover that more people of the world need food this year than they did last year. Mr. Hoover says that the world food situation “doesn’t look very good” and that while the United Sates has a surplus, as usual, it is not as great as the one we had last year, The remarks of the former President should make it clear to Americans every- where that the production of food is one of the first needs of the earth. The areas devastated by war have so far failed to restore food production to nermal and, uv- til agricultural production is greatly in- priview. New the French have the last | creased, the lives of millions of peepte de- Novem pend upon food from this country.
