On that basis, every man, true to himself and his family, may be accused of selfishness. + But would he not be foolish if he does not look out for himself and trusts to others to take care of him and his family? What is true of an individual is also true of a com- munity of individuals, Key Westers, for instance. If they don’t conserve and promote the interests of their home- town, do they have a passing thought that outsiders are going to exert themselves to add to Key West’s growth and prosperity? < The Citizen, on Wednesday, published an advertise- ment, signed by the Monroe County Democratic Execu- tive Committee, in which it was stated that the Navy Yard was closed under Republican Administrations. That state- ment is true, but it tells only part of the story of how Key West has been treated when Republicans were in power in Washington. On one occasion, the Republicans gave Key West the grand ha, ha! by basing their action on a false find- ing to have American warships scoot out of Key West's port. Dengue fever was prevalent in Key West at the con- clusion of the Spanish-American war, The late Dr. J. Y. Porter, State Health Officer, officially reported the out- . break as dengue fever, but the Republican Administration said it had “sound reason” to believe it was yellow fever and, therefore, ordered all warships out of Key West har- bor. But the malady, just as Dr. Porter had said, was dengue fever. P Key West, a Democratic comunity, has a submarine hase; New London, Conn., a Republican community, has a submarine base. When the Republicans came into power in 1921, ALL the submarines, based in Key West, were ordered to New London. Republicans should not be censured for looking out for their own, and neither should Democrats be censured for acting similarly, But this fact is outstanding: Key West did not get back the submarines till a Democrat be- came President. It is a two-and-two-are-four fact, amply borne out by past performances, that Key West has received far great- er considerations from Democratic Administrations than from Republican Administrations. It may be contended that such a circumstance is “only natural.” Certainly, un- questionably, It is “only natural” also that the Republicans favor New London, NOT Key West. Key West's interests ara intimately tied to the Dem- ocratic party, as New London’s interests are intimately tled to the Republican party, New Londoners look out for New London; it is our duty, as Key Westers, to look out for Key West. Frankly, we don’t think millions of readers wait breathlessly for our next few shots. VIVIAN. SHE WANTS TOKNOW WHY WE DION? GO TO THE MASQUERADE BALL LAS] MIGHT.

LONG BEACH, Calif, @— A By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD #-—Are you a per. fect wife? Chances are, you come closer to being a perfect mate than your husband. A psychologist says that the man is more often at fault in imperfect marriages. The expert is Dr. Mason Rose, Ph.D., who is advising on a film with the hopeful title of “Dream Wife.” He remarked that dream wives are more common than dream husbands. “That doesn’t mean that women are never at fault,” he added. “But in my interviews on marital relations, I have found that the wives are more anxious to make marriage work than the husbands, Generally the woman is willing to conform to the man’s wishes, if he knows what he wants.” marriages, Dr, Rose said, is that the men maintain an 18th century | belief in the status of women. j wives to work,” he said, “They |feel that their children can’t be |Properly reared by a working mother, “But a high-energy type of wo- man shouldn’t be limited to being The trouble with many VU.

When he threw the British out and nationalized the Iranian oil fields last year he cut off his own country’s main source of income. But slugging the British lion like that was hot stuff in Iran where the people had long suffered from a feeling of national inferiority. That sense of inferiority is one of the bases for the extreme na- tionalism that has seized the Mid- dle Eastern countries, now that the old colonial powers like Britain and France are on the wane, The evidence of {ran’s plight is the extreme ignorance and poverty of most of the 18 million Iranians, In that sense they have nothing in HAL BOYLE SAY By SAUL PETT (For Hal Boyle) NEW YORK ™ — I think it’s about time we stopped all this careless slander, clinches and irresponsible talk.

When he became premier he knew giving the British the heave- ho couldn't make him unpopular in the eyes of his people who had been steadily watching the weak- ened Britain lose respect and pow: er in the Middle East. He became a national hero over- night, the Iranian strong man, al- though for a man he was strangely given to fits of weeping and fainting when the going got tough. Still, with their emotions and attention fixed on thte spectacle of Britain humiliated at last, the mass of Iranians were diverted from the truly reactionary nature of their own government which had been doing precious little for the betterment of the people. (Among other things they badly needed land reforms. Most of the land was owned by a comparative- ly few rich families, In a way this was a duplication of Egypt. There, defying the British distracted the |. people from the injustices of Fa- needed land reforms badly, too. It took an Army revolution to get rid of Farouk and bring ‘the reforms.) There was a bit of a gamble in what Mossadegh did, He knew the West badly needed oil. So it must have seemed likely to him he could settle on his own terms, It became clear as time passed that he had underestimated the British or had been operating more on personal emotion than on long- range planning. Instead of being able to proceed with Iranian de- velopment and sale of its own oil, he discovered a couple of unpleas- ant facts of life: The British were able to set up a boycott against Iranian oil; and development of oil elsewhere was stepped up to offset the loss from Tran. i And, as time went on, Iran be gan to suffer. The royalty paid by the British for the oil taken from the country had made up at least one third of the Iranian govern- ment’s total revenue. When the ousted British ‘stopped paying the royalty, the Iranian government, economically, was hurt. This week stories from Iran in- dicated Mossadegh may have started to lose some of his support. Yesterday he broke off relations with Britain, What now?
