One of the latest proposals to come from the Com- rmunist headquarters is the suggestion that a five-power conference be held, with the aim of a “peace pact,” to be signed by the Soviet Union, Communist China, the United | States, Great Britain and France. Demand for such a con- ference has appeared regularly in the Communist area during the recent weeks. The trouble with such a conference, or any pact egreed upon at such a parley, is that the Western world would have no confidence in the good faith of the Com- raunist powers. Until the Russians, and their satellites, denionstrate by concrete actions and prolonged behavior that they plan no aggression and sincerely seek peace, there is no prospect of a satisfactory conference or a de- pendable treaty of any kind. “MARSHALL BACKS MILITARY AID TO EUROPE Discussing proposals in Congress that the $6,300,- 060,000 proposed for military assistance overseas be re- duced, in the interest of economy, General George C, Marshall, Secretary of Defense, advised the Senate For- eign Relations Committee that it would be better to make reductions on the $60,000,000,000 budget for the U. 8. armed forces, General Marshall said that nothing should be done to disrupt the highly integrated plans for the deliyery of arms to Western Europe, according to schedule. He pre- dicted that, by the end of next year, these countries will h&ve 2,500,000 men in active service, backed up by more than 5,000,000 reserves, who could be in service within ninety days, if war occurs. Back of the conclusion of the Seeretary of Defense is the convietion that the democracies of Europe, if en- couraged and assisted, will once again be prepared to fight in their own defense. Obviously, a few billion dol- lars used. to supplement “their own expenditures will put more men inthe fighting lines than the same amount of tnoney used in the’ United States, where ‘costs ‘are ‘higher and the pay of soldiers is much greater. gi You may jot this summer down as the greatest eco- lly Key West has ever experienced. omical Except in general terms, we know little about the winds lashing rr generative powers of hurricanes— more than 100 miles an hour for a week or longer, with | pressure sometimes as much as a trillion cubic inche: acre: and Associated Dailies of Florids | er week, year $12.00, single copy 5c d invites discussion of public issues ] interest, but it will not publish | praise employees of The Citizen, | | | i GIBB | THIS ROCK OF OURS Friday, Aug Washington, Dear Mr. Gibb: I would kindly like to take this time to give you some very high 17.

If the comic books you've read, the shows you've seen, or the radio programs ou’ve heard have given you n an idea—forget it. All of you go to church, and most of you read the Bible oc- casionally. Look up Proverbs 29:27 “An unjust man is an abomi- nation to the just; and he that is upright in the way: is an abomi- nation to the wicked.” These words still hold true to- day. If you're ‘a polite boy, you'll hate rudéness. And the rude boy will probably — dislike you. If you cheat in school, the honest students secretly dispise you. The boy who lies or steals will develop an inferiority complex that makes him hate any person good enough not to lie or steal.
