THIS WEEK

by Robert l.. Moody
PEACE! AT H. PRICE

We are taking a sigh of relief
after the hair raising expectation
of war that faced US this time last
week. On lockers, such as we
are, stand in perplexity as to what
to believe or what course to take.
However, we are thankful to God
for the postponement of war, but
we cannot be satisfied or feel per-
fectly safe, because We are not
able to know how long this peace"
will last.
Truely as Paul said, I'm the
last days perilous times shall
come.-For men shall be lovers of
their ourselves. Coevtous, truce
breakers, traitors, etc. II Timothy
3:1-5.
La many instances, we are led
to believe the "dictators" to be
"trucebreakers" while the "demo-
~cracies" r styled as traitors.
Part of this may be true and only
goes to show that the Bible evil

Cod, because it is so accurate in

Among them Mrs. Alicia Renthall, an Eng

For 20 years she has been traversing
remote wild regions, mostly on foot, and
has been around the world six times. Her
wanderings have carried her across Africa
several times, as well as into Tibet, Arabia,
Syria, India, Central America and else
where.
One remarkable characteristic of Mrs.
Renthall is that in her jungle explorations
she goes unarmed, carrying nothing more
formidable than an umbrella. She recent

A MERCHANT MARINE BASE?

w nile WlCHHOlulng comment III keep
ing with his service training and back
ground, Commander William ~ Richard
son, U.SN Retired, seemed to onlookers
to have been impressed with the facilities
and equipment at the Key West Naval
Station if and when it is converted into
base for the training of men for the mer-
chant marine. Commander Richardson
was making tour of the yard with Mayor
Willard M. Albury in connection with the
proposal of the US. Maritime Commission
to establish such a training station at one
of the Gulf ports.
At the naval station Commander
Richardson, who is representing the COM
mission, found adequate buildings for
housing training personnel and enrollees
in the merchant marine, complete machine
shop equipment kept in first class condi-
ton, storage capacity for more than L.
100000 gallons of fresh water and con-
densers capable of producing additional
supplies and many other facilities which
might be utilized by the commission.
Tomorrow the Inspector is scheduled
to make further tour of the city with the
mayor. He has been shown the general
beauties of the city, the recreational pos
sibilities including golf at the Country club
and has been introduced to many of our
leading citizens and civic leaders. The
mayor is now anxious to show him the
waterfront outside of the naval station
with a view of impressing the Inspector
with the fact that every facility in Key
West would be made available to the Mari
time commission if requested.
The movement to obtain the marine
training station for Key West was initiated
by Mayor Albury after the commissions
determination to establish one at a Gulf
port had been called to his attention by
one of our citizens. Since that time some
months ago the mayor has been in constant
communication with the commission at
Washington and it was he Commander
Richardson first contacted when he reach
ed Key West Tuesday night
Mayor Albury is to be congratulated
for his effort along this line. Reopening
of the naval station will mean much to
mechanics and others thrown out of work
when the yard was placed on the inactive
list and will be felt in every line of local
business activity. The Citizen hopes the
idea will not be lost sight of after Com
mander Richardson leaves to continue his
study of the Gulf ports. 1t may be two or
three months before the Inspector makes
his report and the commission acts. In
that period some other community may
step in and grab off the plum, so it be-
hooves our city and civic leaders to follow
through.

holders, getting their interest if,
and when, the railroads earn the
necessary funds.
