appear in dozen or more variations
that give interesting diversity to the
stone. Agates often have such a care
fully built up color plan that it really
seems more artificial than natural in
its perfect formation of layers. The
stone takes on beautiful luster when
polished and is very hard.
But most interesting are the sup
posed supernatural powers long asso-
,ciated with agate as the stone Of this
dnonth. In ancient writings these
included its power to wipe out pain,
to bring love and success to the wearer.
Naturally this had strong appeal to
those of trusting nature. They be-
heved that the wearing Of an agate,
for instance. would take out all the
pain and poison caused by the bites
of spiders and scorpions. They also
had faith that touching the eyes with
the stone would restore sight and that

manner. Even today June children
are told that if they will wear an agate
they will soon find true love and also

marvel little that the agate still re-

Everytime Since April;
Nations Feed Spanish
Civil Population

Emerging for a few moments
from his desk where he was
writing a short story, Ernest
Hemingway, noted novelist and
short story writer, chatted a few
moments yesterday afternoon
with The Citizen regarding his
writing and fishing plans and re-
ported firSt-hand information of
the progress of the civil war in
Spain.
Its a question of feeding the
civil population now, Mr.. Hem
ingWay said. Food is coming in
from many nations in the form
of surplus commodities. For in
stance America is sending part of
its surplus of wheat products.
In reply to a question concern
ing the present economic status
of Loyalist Spain, Mr.. Heming-
way said that they hold the
manufacturing and other rich
centers in Spain. Catalonia in
northeastern Spain, for instance,
is extremely rich in olives. rice,
oil, cattle, wheat, minerals.
Those producing sections which
, the Rebels have captured they
have mostly turned over to Italy
and Germany.
by the way the last time /
was here Franco was starting the
drive on Valencia. If you notice
it was never completed. Gov
eminent Spain holds the three
centers of Spain, Madrid, Valen-
cia and Barcelona. 1t has been
more than year now since
| Franco invited foreign CORE
spondents to meet him in
Madrid in a few weeks. BARGE
Iona is a third stronghold of the
government"
Asked about the recent at
tempts to move all foreign troops
out of the Civil War, Hemingway
said that the government now
has no foreign troops, but that
the Rebels have $4,000 German
and 10000 Italian troops.
Franco has been beaten in
every important military engage
ment since April, Hemingway
said, His tactics now have shift

COMMITTEE ON
UNEMPLOYMENT
HAS MEETING
PLANS OUTLINED FOR HOLD
ING MASS MEETING IN IN
TEREST OF SPONSORING
WPA PROJECTS

Committee appointed Novem-
Der % from the joint meeting of
representatives of the County
Commissioners, City Council and
the Chamber of Commerce to
bring forward a plan whereby
WPA projects might be sponsor
ed and unemployment for Key
West be averted was the subject
of discussion at a meeting held
last night.
The committee, members of
which are Charles Aronovitz,
Earl Adams, Fred j. Dion, Will
liam T. Doughty and Carl Ber-
valdi, met for the purpose of
formulating plans to impress the
citizens of Key West with the abb
solute need of quick action in
averting what promises to be a
catastrophe, unless necessary ac-
ton is taken.
Besides the regularly appoint
ed committee the meeting was
attended by Robert Z. Campbell,
WPA officia: from Jacksonville;
B. Curry Moreno, area supervisor,
and Fred o. Eberhardt, of the
WPA in Key West.
1t was decided to issue a circu-
lar in both English and Spanish,
setting forth the facts of the sit
uation, this to be followed by a
call for asxnass meeting, after the
citizens Of Key West have been
informed of the emergency con-
fronting it.
II is the belief of the commit
tee that a workable plan can be
presented whereby WPA projects
can be sponsored that will be a
solution of the problem with
which the city is confronted and
it is TO the end that all citizens
of Key West may realize the Sc
rIous results which will attend
a do-nothing policy, and the fact
that these results may be avert
cd without placing a burden on
anyone.
The time and place of the pro-
posed meeting will be announced
shortly.
