We feel complimented if strangers decide to make Key West their perma- nent home, and we should do all we can not to make their decision regret- table. THE ORACLE. ee | ATTEMPTING THE IMPOSSIBLE Pleading for greater economic unity in the Americas, Ramon Betteta, Secretary ~ of the Treasury of Mexico, says that every “country in the Americas is attempting the impossible in trying to sell but not to buy. This brings to mind the recent declara- tion of several prominent Americans, representing labor, industry and agricul- “ture stressing the importance of a healthy, » balanced world trade and insisting that an CRED EOME EEE FOOSE CED ER POREEROE FO eRe trey on aheve pace increase in imports is necessary to stimu- late economic recovery. Among the speakers was Edward A. O’Neal, veteran president of the Amer- ican Farm Bureau Federation, who pointed out that “the farmer’s stake in foreign trade is very great simply because this nation cannot consume all the food and fiber that our farmers are capable of producing.” While admitting that some tariff pro- tection might be needed against unfair campetition,; Mr. O’Neal declared that of 306 items that farmers buy, ranging from clothing to fencing, 230 are protected by duties and only 76 are free of levy. He said that the farmer has arrived at a real- istic view and no longer believes that high protective tariffs lead to high wages. Another speaker, Mr. George M. Har- rison, vice president of the American Federation of Labor, warned that ‘with- out imports, our economy would come to a standstill,” and urged that we begin planning, while production and employ- ment continue at high levels, for a larger volume of imports, particularly’ strategic raw materials. Unless we are prepared to increase our imports, he said, our pres- ent large volume of exports, employment based upon exports cannot long be main- tained. Hf we do not accept imports, we can continue to export only by giving away eur goods to the rest of the world indefinitely. Something of the same idea came from George W. Wolfe, president of the U. S. Steel Export Company, who warned that if we continued the expenditure of our productive and national wealth at the cur- rent rate, giving to foreign nations without importing in return, we will come to “economic bankruptcy and exhaustion.” Realiing that the United States must ex- tend assistance to other countries, Mr. Wolfe said that we must either import or else furnish dollar credits to countries _.. Which want to buy our goods. That is THE KEY WEST CITIZEN GOOD LUCK TO BOTH It appears that Dave King will be city manager again. That is good news for a vast majority of Key Westers, who regard ! King as the right man for the job. As Commissioners Demeritt and John ; Carbonell said, The Citizen regards El- lingson as a personable man, but agrees | with Carbonel when he added, “After see- ing Mr. Ellingson and Mr. King work, I am convinced that King is the more capable man.” The Citizen has refrained from con- eerted criticism against Ellingson, though on several occasions it pointed out that El- lingson had given orders that this or that be done, but had not insisted that they be kept in effect. One of those orders regarded the cur- few. Ellingson had directed the police to see that it was obeyed by the children of the city. They kept off the streets after 9 o’clock for a week or two, and then be- gan coming out gradually, until now, at lest in one section of the city, they regard the ringing of the curfew as the time to begin going out:on the street to play. The police had relaxed, and Ellingson had relaxed, as a result of which children, and their parents, too, looked upon the curfew ordinance as something of a joke. The only way in life to succeed in any- thing is to keep on pegging away. He who lets-up is lost. For a century letting-up, in community activities, had retarded the growth of Key West. When some im- provement was proposed, residents gen- erally were enthusiastic about it, but the enthusiasm blew itself out like a nor’west- er, as Harry Gwynn used to say. Good luck to Ellingson, for -he is a likeable man, and good luck to Dave King if he resumes his office of city man- ager of Key West. “If” 4s used because it is rumored that Adams, Louis Carbonell and Dion have another man, a capable one, under con- sideration. Your health is important to you, if to no one else; so take care of your body and live longer. ARMY LOCATES THREE POLES In a year of experimentation and _re- search, an Army’ Air Force has tested men, theories, materials and equipment in the Arctic regions. Flying more than 5,000 hours and more than 1,000,000 miles over the “geo- graphic North Pole and_ its immediate vicinity,” the Air Force discloses that it discovered two new magnetic poles, in ad- dition to correcting the position of the one recognized by science. The major magnetic pole was located on Prince of Wales Island. A “local pole” was located on Boothia Peninsula, which has been regarded as the site of the ““mag- netic North Pole,” and another was found on Bathurst Island. Together the three poles make an elliptical magnetic field. While the 46th Reconnaisance Squad- ron began its operations in June, 1946, high officials wondered about releasing ‘details of the operation. It is known that American strategists regard the polar area as the shortest aerial invasion route be- tween major powers and emphasize the strategic value of Alaska. The acquisition of aerial photographic maps of “unex- plored” areas in the Arctic possesses pe- culiar value in connection with strategic problems, As a result of the year’s test, the con- clusio® has been reached that much standard-type ground equipment is inef- ficient for polar operations. In addition to the flights designed to discover facts of importance to aviation, the squadron conducted operations with ground forces to test their equipment and weapons in extreme cold. In addition, they mapped a 35,000-square-mile area for the Navy in a search for possible-bearing formations. —— A Lady: A woman who makes it easy | for a man to be a gentleman. what we are doing now and he warns that “because of our failure and lack of desire to import,” we will end up minus the dollars and minus the goods. It is very apparent, if the economy of the world is to be revived, that there must be a freer system of credit between the nations. The United States vitally re- quires certain strategic raw material im- ports and it is important that these be stockpiled by the government. In addi- tion, if we ship billions of dollars worth of our goods abroad, without receiving in return, goods of similar value, we are, in fact, giving away so much of the re- “Radio Programs | PEROREES Daytime Summa Belected programs as {i ral nore the same babel tu NY Por centeal standard sube tract one hour; for mountain stande ard two hours, NOV. 10 THROUGH NOV. 14 Morning 9:00—Honeymoon in N. ¥.—nbo Breakfast Club—abe 9:15—Oklahoma Roundup—cbs Shady Valley Folks—mbs 10:00—Fred Waring Show—nbe Music For You—cbs My Story Drama—abe 10:25—Betty Crocker Talk—abe 10:30—Say It With Musicrrmbg. 11:00—Arthur Godfrey Show—cbs * , Breakfast in Hollywood—abe 11:30—Ben Alexander Show—mbs 11:45—Serials (2% hrs.)—cbs Afternoon 12:00—Welcome Travelers—abe Kate Smith Speaks—mbs 12:30—Words and Music—nbe Daily Band Concerts—mbs 1:00—Coneert Half-Hour—nbe 2:00-Four Hours of Serials—nbe Queen for a Day—i 2:30—Bride and Gr Martin Block hrs.
