They argue that the party stands for many things, and no group should refuse to support the party nomi- nees because the majority decides against that group on one issue. The Southerners, however, have a different conception of state party rights, just as they are keenly sensitive on the issue of states’ rights.

MISTAKEN IMPRESSION GIVEN Editor, The Citizen : : In the People’s Forum of Tuesday in the Key West Citizen there appeared an article attacking high salaries and expenditures of county officials and signed anony- mously by “Sonny Boy” Roberts, Would you allow. me the same valuable space in your People’s Forum to deny that this article was written by me? Many of my friends have asked me concerning it. I am running for city commissioner and my job lies primarily with the problems of city administration. I in- tend, if elected, to work hard to solve these problems and these problems only. There is more than enough work to do in the city alone. The county problems must be solved by the county commissioners. I have forthright- ly expressed all my opinions on city problems and will continue to do so the coming week. Thank you for publishing this clarification which should set the record straight. Sincerely, PAUL ROSS (BLONDIE) ROBERTS REASONING QUESTIONED Editor, The Citizen After reading the newspaper reports of the various meetings and discussions on the question of the new wat-' er line, I am amazed at the lack of good reasons (other than it would be nice to have a line of our own) in the argument for the proposed line. Frankly I think it is foolish to just consider this pro- posal from the standpoint of the ad valorem taxes and the inability of the commission to pay off the debts. This at the present time is legislation to further the interests of a comparatively few land owners of large acreages on the Keys. I listened to a “person” state with pride that he, as a member of the Florida Aqueduct Commission “never missed a meeting of that body”. Neither would I, if I were lucky enough to be on it and get the pay which goes with the attendance of each meeting. Sometimes'I wonder at the pressure which is brought to bear on the freeholder to vote for this issue at this time. I also wonder if the pressure on the water line is diminished at times in the same proportion. It is possible. How do we know? : Mr. Ramsey admits he is not happy about the clause in the bond agreement on unlimited ad valorem tax as- sessments. How does he think the average property own-' er feels? I don’t blame the people who may buy the bonds for insisting on this clause and I admire those respon- sible for the clause in the Act stating that qualified vot- ers must vote in five new members of the new Florida Aqueduct Commission in February of 1954. Too bad they didn’t insist they were to be voted in before this is- sue. Mr. Ramsey also states that by the time the new line is completed enough new connections would be made, to account for the estimated $420,000 needed before ad i 7 i if i ; i ay EEE bbe: a E i i ie fli zcEER EH ll is Ey e782 if nee 2 i ei ge ef NEW YORK (#—Ail women have a way with words, but Peg Lynch has a way of making them pay. One of the brightest girls in the big town, she has turned out so imuch prose her output makes the biggest dictionary luok like a pock- et magazine. “Some day I'd like to write a book,” she said, and if she really put her mind to it, well—it prob- ably wouldn’t take her more than a week. We sat down and figured out how many words she had authored in her career as a radio and televi- sion writer. The totai was roughly 11,600,000—the equivalent of 116 books of 100,000 words each. “But I still want to write a real book, or a good Broadway play,” she said wistfully. “If 1 ever can find the time.” Time is what Peg has the least ‘of.
