uNscRAMBLING KEY WEST

The Key West Citizen, protesting only that
1t has all it believes is best for this city sincerely
at heart, is committed to a. helpful and straight
forward movement in cooperation with the
Women's Club for suitable city plan. Today this
city is sadly but not hopelessly scrambled. Yet
are firm in the opinion that it can be judiciousy
and satisfactorily unscrambled, that this I'M
scrambling should be begun at once, and that it
will be so begun without delay.
To this praiseworthy end, and working
thoughtfully with our Women's Club, it is our in
tention to be represented not alone by our COM
plete Associated Press Service but by special cor
respondents as well at the National Conference on
City Planning in st. Petersburg the three conclud-
ing. days of March, and in West Palm Beach on
April 1.
Messages from the most eminent city plann-
ing experts in the United States will be brought to
the people of Florida at the st. Petersburg Con-
ference and of all the cities in this state there is
wherein we feel assured a competent city plan
can do greater good in our fresh start forward than
in Key West.
A day or two ago The Citizen printed second
auHiiiaDic alttCiS Afom InS pen VI ". w. DdAioh,
the eminent New York publisher and financier, in
which Mr. Barron predicts that just few years
from now Key West Island alone will represent,
because of the swift approach of the Oversee
Highway, at least one hundred million doars
It is not within the scope of the unframed
human mind to grasp the tremendous import of this
astounding statement. Such statement can
only come from the mental archives of a of
faith and vision-of man whose vision is founded
upon faith And this prediction of Key Vests inn
pending future is based not alone on the value of
the attributes which God has bestowed upon Key
West but also upon the additional and essential fact
that the millions of dollars in enhanced value must
be, and even today are being, man-made.
Therefore, as the dynamite crews and the
dragline dredge gangs blast and dig and fill our
mangrove lowlands and vie with Nature to weave
magic carpet of gold for tropc homesites, our
City Fathers must keep step with the developers
from out the North in order that all these vast
efforts for future good, concentrated here within
the narrow bounds of an island in mid-ocean may
blend, coordinate and grow under definite plan
into Wonderfully built around a port far out al
sea, city rvalled by other only in esthetc beauty
and architectural charm, but never rivalled as to
circumstance of climate and of setting.

ALASKA NATIVE BROTHEn-
 HOOD ITS PLATFORM

The platform adopted by the A. N. B. in 1920 still applies. It shows how right these natives were then, and is as follows:
 1. We affirm that great principle of the Declaration of Independence, that all men are created free and equal, and that they are endowed by their Creator with certain in alienable Rights, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
 2. We affirm that all people within the United States should be equal before the law and that it is not only un-American in prin- ciple to make laws which create

any one would gain priority simply because he was the first to put in few piles in a wide stretch of navigable waters, in closing nothing, or was the first to stand upon the shore and say: I intend to fish in this particular place. I intend to build fishing appliance in the waters off this shore
 "The right of fishery in the navigable waters is common right. It is a right of almost an equal grade with the right of navigation. Certainly it is an older right.
 Nc Exclusive Right
 ''As was said in the case of Pacific Steam Whaling Company V. Alaska Packers Association, 13S Cal. 636, 72 Pac. 163: 'The right of fishery in the waters of the ocean, whether in the open sea, UT mere lIc WdltIS cUD dIlu 1lO" over tidelands, is public right which may be exercised by any citizen. In it's very nature, the eXer- else of the right of fishing in the public waters of the ocean is not, and cannot be, exclusive. It's exer- else, no matter by whom or for what length of time, is only the exercise of a public right. There can be no possession, for the pur- pose of fishery, of an area of land covered by the waters of the ocean that is at all analogous (similar) to an actual possession of tract of upland which might give the pos sessor right of action against a mere trespasser. One who exer- cises this public right of fishery in the sea does not by that make himself a trespasser."

 8. We, the Alaska Native Brotherhood, therefore ask that all favors shown the Natives of Alaska, and more particularly the Natives of Southeastern Alaska, be with drawn, and that the Natives be hereafter under the same privileges and duties of any other citizen of the United States.
 4. It is the wish of this Conven- tion that the Natives shall pay his taxes for the support of all proper activities in the same manner as any other citizen, that he shall be required to attend the same schools as other citizens for we believe that the system that has assim Hated millions of foreigners who have come to our shores within the past twenty years, tcwit, the public school, is the only reasonable system by which the so-called In- dian problem should be solved.
 5. We believe in compulsory education, and as an evidence of our faith, we recommend that all children of Natives shall be re- quired by law to remain in school until their sixteenth year and shall begin with their eighth year, and that they attend the public schools of Alaska as required of any other citizen.
 6. Most of the delegates of this Convention know from experience of the numerous catches of salmon by traps which take the salmon at points of bays, channels, and streams, where seiner cannot pos sibly work; also the fact that trap works twentyfour hours day whereas a seiner cannot work more than daylight hours and only in comparatively calm weather; also that it is the practice of many trap owners to work their traps during the closed season and that but few of these owners are brought to justice; also the fact that while there are a great many successful traps in Alaska, there are great many unsuccessful traps and the cost of these unsuccessful traps are added to the cost of production so that the price of the canned sal mon is very high not because the seiners are paid a high price for salmon, but because those unsuccess-

General Greenlaw
Outlines Paris Trip

General Albert Greenlaw of East
port, speaking at the meeting of the
American Legion last evening our
lined the trip to France wrich Leg
ionaires will take in 1927 for the
annual convention. General Green
law is member of tho committee of
nine Legionaires from all parts of
the country which has the trip in
charge.
AT the outset of his talk the speak
er congratulated the members of the
local post on the way in which its
meeting was conducted and on It's
large attendance.
He said that when he had first
been made member of the commit
tee he was of the impression that
there would be some 1900 Legionaires
to make the trip and that it would
be an easy job to see that they We're
safely transported across the sea and
back. More recently, he said, the
project has grown to such proper
tons that he did not know how it
ever was to be accomplished.
Not so long ago, the general said,
he had received notification that IT,
500 members planned to be in France
and he stated 1t as his belief that
there would be fully $4,000 to make
the trip.
In outlining the history of the plan
the general said that It was first
thought of at the St. Paul convention
in 1924 and he traced the work that
had been done thus far.
Arrangements have already been
made with various shipping COM
panies and there is to be a fleet OF
II vessels to carry the Legionaires
to and from France. These will sail
from ports on all parts Of the At
