Beach and Bathing Pavilion, Airports—Land and Sea. Consolidation of County and City Governments. 5. Community Auditorium. Pee MONOGRAPH To Those Concerned: There are businessmen everywhere, including Key West, who are absolutely honest regarding money matters, but aS crooked as a dog’s hind leg when relations towards their competitors are concerned. Are you guilty? THE ORACLE. PREDICTS RECESSION The present “serious” inflation will . 7Téad’ to a business slump in the United eee ese een States "within the next few: years,” de- clares: Chester Bowles, former Price Ad- ministrator. The prediction is cushioned with the view that the slump “will not be fatal” or disastrous” but like that of 1920- 21 rather than that of 1929. _ Mr. Bowles believes that prices in many industries are set upon an unrealis- tic basis and that a heavy proportion of the products sold today would make more money if they were sold at a lower price. He urges business and the Government to get together to arrange for the continued growth of healthy capitalism and declar- ed that such a development would bring a shift in foreign policy that would cre- ate a long, peace. Mr. Bowles thinks full production plus full employment will insure — suf- ficient purchasing power to take care of all the géeds that the nation can produce. He thinks’ that there should be a careful- ly planned and timed system of public works to keep the heavy goods industries rolling year in and year out and that the Government should take steps to guar- antee the construction of 1,300,000 homes each year. Taking cognizance of the approaching session of Congress, Mr. Bowles says that speculation measures can be taken to cushion any ‘recession, but he remains doubtful that anything will be done in view of the forthcoming presidential el- ection year. There are some people who like jokes —when they are on the other fellow. There are some writers suffering sprained arms from patting themselves on the back. The business world is jammed with executives who know how to run the bus- inesses that belong to others. With the end of the football season approaching, we will have a hard time de- termining the relative worth of the institu- tions of learning. No, Alphonse, free trade does not mean that we in America can buy with- out money anything of value. That can only be done by the nations of Europe, and only from us in the United States. “AMUSING” Possession by the United States of the atom bomb secret is a’thorn in Russia’s side. The thorn keeps Russia quivering, and, while she quivers, she tries to bluff the people of the United States into be- | lieving that she knows how to produce the bomb. ae eenehwr lis Russia knows the secret of the atom bomb as Key Westers generally knew the secret of who would be named city man- ager. One group was sure that Dave King would be named; another group was just as confident that Ralph Spalding would receive the appointment, and a_ third group already had C. B. Harvey installed in the manager's chair in City Hall. Edwin Trevor’s name was not mentioned by anybody, so far as The Citizen was in- formed. Some proponents of the three men propagandized just as Russia is propagan- dizing about the atom bomb. First, Russia H had Molotov “tell the world” in a speech, during the celebration of the thirtieth an- niversary of the founding of the Soviet republics, that Russia knew all about the atom bomb, and then Russia had a dis- patch sent from Prague to a Paris news- paper that a bomb had been tested last June 15 and had: proved to be a success. A hunt for “John Griggs’, who is supposed to have sent the dispatch, re- vealed that no such correspondent is reg- | istred at Prague. Major General Leslie R. Groves, the United States Army’s fore- most atom bomb authority, characteried | the Prague dispatch as a ‘“pipedream.” He added, “I wonder what story will come | up next?” Secrets among nations are very much like secrets among individauls. Those individuals who are not, in the “know”, repeatedly give as a fact their awareness of the secret in the hope of causing those who know it into revealing it, just as Russia is trying to bluff the people of the United States about the secret of the atom bomb, all of which is “amusing”, as General Groves concluded. Some of the art that we sometimes see it not what we would like to see. If things continue to develop, a youngster must be a member of a minor- ity group to have a chance iW the good old U.S. A. DEATH BEHIND THE WHEEL There should be general approval of the proposal that a nation-wide ban be placed on the sale of liquor at gasoline filling stations. Lou E. Holland, chairman of the Na- tional Safety Committee of the American Automobile Association, sponsored the pro- posal, describing tne sales of alcoholic be- verages alongside the highways are ‘“‘put- ting death behind the wheel with a bottle in his hand.” Mr. Holland reports that areas, ‘ex- tending from Minnesota to New York, indicate that hundreds of filling stations are putting in supplies of liquor to be peddled to motorists during the cold weather.” He points out that an analysis of mishaps throughout the country reveals that in some states fifty-five per cent of the highway accidents occur when drivers are under the influence of intoxicapts. He is particularly concerned about the “evil effect” on juvenile drivers. Mr. Holland proposes that State leg- islation enact laws to prohibit the grant- ing of licenses to sell alcoholic beverages at filling stations and is firmly convinced that the elimination of the insidious evil will save thousands of lives. Calling the number of people who die on our high- ways “terrifying”, he emphasizes the dan- ger of taking in liquor and gasoline at the same time, saying it will encourage reck- lessness and la¢k of care which will re- sult in thousands of deaths. with the sentiment expr land and heartily endorse his proposal to ban the sale of alcoholic beverages at filling stations, we might as well call at- tention to another evil in connection with the habit of some individuals of driving while under the influence of alsoholic be- verages. This’ is the tendency of juries, composed of average Americans, to acquit those who are arrested for driving motor vehicles while under the influence of in- toxicating beverages. Until the juries of the nation support the efforts of highw patrolmen and other traffic officers by convicting those who drive while intoxi- cated, the death list will not only continue } but it will expand.
