Gentlemen: hie Welcome to the Island City of Key West, where, a scere of years ago the *Pan American's first flight to Cuba was inaugurated, and. which event is com- memorated tomorrow, October 28, 1947, uP THE ORACLE. NAVY-KEY WEST DAY “Key West: is.the Navy and the Navy is Key West,” Captain Houser said last luraday ‘at the’ luncheon of the Key Phe tenth of. that statement goes back Suin the ‘history‘ of Key: West further than any resident: can recall, Byer during more than a seore of-years, after the Civil War, -~-when the Army Barracks here was on a =< care-taking, hasis, the Navy operated in = Key Weston .a, fairly:large seale. It: Iw what was the old Navy Yard, ex- fctending from Greene te Eaton street, = along Whitehead, except for, three lots, =the Navy had a'large coal shed to supply =~ Navy ships 'that.eame to port.and tied up SS'at the wharf opposite the Mallory Line = wharf, Between the Navy wharf and the = coal yards, the Bureau of Lighthouses had Sua wharf. A track of iron rails ran from Sothe coal yard to the head of the Navy So wharf, and, over it mules drew V-shaped =lron ¢ontajners loaded with coal, That and | = much other work was done at the Navy r=. Yard’ by. Key Westers, so that the Navy, “= ever since its coming here, has provided “payrolls for civilians, While no Key Wester living today had been born when the Naval Station was es- tablished here, many remember the ac- tivity of the Navy in Key West during the Spanish-American War days. The Atlantic - fleet then was based in Key West, and - the first Spanish prize captured, the Buena. Ventura, was brought ts Key West = under the frowning guns of the United = States cruiser Montgomery. : é 2 Let us. paraphfase Captain Houser’s _ statement at the Rotary luncheon: Let us = make Navy Day Key West Day. ert WOMEN'S PLACE 1S EVERYWHERE «| be At a recent Governors’ Conference at- | tended by Chief’. Executives of thirty States, the Governors discussed women’s | - Place iv our affairs, The Governors agreed that “women’s place was everywhere” from the kitchen to the highest places in public office. The reeords show that Ameriean women. have gained recognition in elective and appointive offices through- out the country, end the Governors decid- ed that. our women “have conducted = themselves with distinction.” Of course! : The human race is mysterious because y - of the many people who say one thing and mean another thing, ‘ 1itad years ago when a PAA Clipper inaugurat- ed the United States’ first international | place’ of: Pan American World Airways, is officially recognizing one of the most famous dates in its history—the day 20 daily airmail and passenger service. “Mayor William W,..Demeritt of Key West has issued a proclamation urging citizens to observe Tuesday (October 28) as “Pan American World Airways Day.” “Tuesday’s anniversary observance will begin’ with a ceremony: at Meagham Field at 9 a. m., at whieh’ 5 moniment mark- ing the site of that historic takeoff wil be dedieated, Mayor Nicolas ‘Castellanos of Havana will unveil the monument. Honor guests will then be flown by Clipper to Havana, where another monu- ment will be unveiled at Ranchos Boyeros Airport by Governor Millard F. Caldwell of Florida. ‘ Z The day’s celebration will be climaxed by a banquet in Miami Tuesday night with Governor Caldwell as host and prin- cipal speaker and Senator Speasard Hol- land as presiding officer. 4 Text of Mayor Demeritt’s proclamsa- tion; : “WHEREAS, 20 years ago, on October 28, 1927, a.Pan Ameriean World Airways Clipper flew from Key West, Fla., to Ha- vana, Cuba, marking one of the outstand- ing milestones of aviation and the first step in encompassment of the globe by to- day’s modern airliners, and “WHEREAS, the United States’ lead- ership in world aviation is due in large measure to those far-sighted, pioneering airmen of Pan American World Airways who spanned the Plorida Straits, then the Caribbean, the Pacific, the Atlantic and now the world, and “WHEREAS, by linking the Americas with speedy, dependable transportation, PAA probably has done more than any other agency to make the term, ‘Good Neighbor’ an actuality, by creating new markets and strengthening and building friendly relations between the United States and Latin America, and “WHEREAS, Pan American World Airways has firmly established Florida as THE air gateway between the Americas, with more international air passengers passing through the state than any other commonwealth in the United States, and “WHEREAS, Pan American World Airways, as one of the largest’single em- Ployers in our state, provides a livelihood for more than 5,000 Floridians, “THEREFORE, by virtue of the pow- ers invested in me as Chief Executive of the City of Key West, Florida, I, William W. Demeritt, Mayor, do hereby and here- with proclaim October 28, 1947, as Pan American World Airways Day and urge its observance in a fitting manner, and to this proclamation I affix my hand and the Great Seal of Key West. “(Signed) WILLIAM W, DEMERITT. “The 25th day. of October, “In the Year of Our Lord 1947,” The general opinion is that there are too many organizations and too much or- ganizing inside organizations. ~ ANTI-COMMUNISM* We have had all sorts of trouble with the unpredictable CIO in past years. Now comes the news that heads of that big labor organization have refused to sign non-Communist affidavits. It was not sur- prising that John L. Lewis, top man of the ¢oal miners union, is still cussing out the new labor legislation and ealling it the “slave law.” Lewis is temperamental and “agin” the Government. As a matter of fact, the so-called Taft- Hartley Act seems to be gaining favor among union labor workmen who regard the legislation as a step in the right di- rection, even if they are not in a hurry about accepting it. _ Our abiding sympathy goes to the poor fellow who thinks that, if he lets up a bit, the world will go to the dogs. ree WHAT'LL THE VERDICT BE? —_—— Believe it or not, there is more inter- est in National politics today than usual. That is a good sign, as it indicates that the public is very critical of both of the old political. parties. It seems as though an unusual number of the “best men”. will win in the 1948 elections, independent of political parties, and small politics. It is Pleasant to report that Federal officials, including Senators and Representatives, are heing judged on their merits.
