She reports that Canada, Austria, Belgium, Great Britain and ether countries have missions at the vari- ous displaced persons camps in Italy, Ger- many and Austria. They carefully select the type of immigrant that will meet the national need. The United States, how- er, has no such program § and the matter choosing immigrants is left largely to voluntary agencies. The legislation passed by Congress has ben denounced by representatives of varidws races and religions as discrimina- Truman declared awt® Roman Catholics. The correspond- ent, however, saysthat “this does not show in immigration shipping lists.” On the ship on which she returned were 329 Roman Catholics, 268 Jews, 168 Protes- tants, 81 Orthodox, 74 Greek Catholics, 1 Evangelical, 5 Lutheran, two Greek Orthodox, two Adventists and one Men- > nonite. The majority of shipping lists, she saye show a similar religious and racial makeup, with little variation.” Miss Rip- iey points out that the requirement that ~immigrants have specific job assurances “hal Tittle meaning because there is noth- ing Binding about the, contracts.

Speaking about the quality of the im- migrants, the Monitor's correspondent, says that there, are many fine prospective Americans among all races and _ religions hat that there are others who are simply out “to make a lot of money.” She con- cludes that “the United States is letting itself in for a very raw deal on quality” and advocates that a more workable pro- gram should be evolved to select the in- dividuals to come to this country. he time for the seven lean years is here, for we have had our seven fat years, entitled to ’ THE KEY WEST CITIZEN MAY FUME BUT NOT STRIKE - TIME TO RING DOWN THE CURTAIN! er atten * . Don’t be an “umbrelia-toter” - either as an individual or a8 a nation. Many Key ‘Westets recall the late: Prime Minister | Neville Chamberlain of England and his umbrella. He and his umbrella were’ in- separable whenever he calledon Hitler to try to appease him before the beginning of World War Il. ‘ Umbrella-toting has beeome synpni- mous with appeasement.

If you are Prepared, you may be sure you won’t be caught off balance. The United State was unprepared when it entered the first World War and only partly prepared when the Japs struck at Peat!

The countries in the pact want peace and are confident that the best way to maintain it is to be prepared to strike at any aggressor nation that wants to disrup' that peace to attain more power. . What would have happened since the end of the second ‘World War had the Western Powers tried to appease Stalin as Chamberlain tried to appease Hitler? Stalin would have done what Hitler did, and we would have been inthe midst of another war.
