WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-The
expenditure of any public money
is a responsibility, When the
amount involved reachs $50,000.-
600 the responsibility is definitely
great. But when the $4,000, 900
or more is TO De used to purchase
a battleship there is a dual re-
sponsibility-first to see that the
public gets dollars worth of
ship for each dollar of the pur-
chase price, and second, to be
certain that the battleship pur-
chased has all the desirable char
acteristics to make it of maximum
usefulness in the defense of our
country throughout its 26 or more
years of service.
This responsibility is divided.
The general board, composed of
experienced flag officers, de-
termines the characteristics which
include tonnage, armament, cruis-
ing radius, speed, vulnerability,

The technical bureaus study
the general board characteristics,

Buckets are in the Key

Chief Harry Baker of the
Key West Fire Department
appeared before the Monroe
County Commission last night
with the news that 500 of
the buckets are gone. What
has become of them? Well
fishermen along the bridges
use them for keeping their

many Of them are lost in the
handling. The majority of
the losses have been on the

issue BROUGHT
BEFORE BOARD
MATTER RELATIVE TO PERKY
HOLDINGS DISCUSSED BY
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
LAST NIGHT

At the meeting of the Board OF
County Commissioners held last
night the question of rights oil
ways over the highway was
brought up for discussion and
the general opinion expressed
was that up to the present time
very little Roadway had been
made toward securing the rights
which reverted to r. c. Perky,
when the Florida East Coast
Railway was abandoned.
w. Curry Harris, attorney for
the commissioners advised he had
taken the matter up with Mr..
Perky and had sent him the fol-
lowing letter in connection with
the desires of the county:
MIR. r. c. Perky,
Perky, Florida.
Dear Mr.. Perky:
"At a special meeting of the
Board of County Commissioners
held yesterday afternoon, was
instructed to prepare and for
ward to you for your considera-
ton, deeds for that portion OF
the abandoned right of way Of
the Florida East Coast Railway
owned and held by your various
companies between Big Pine Key
and Key West"
Deeds and other papers in con-
nection were enclosed, and are
now, or should be. in the hands
of Mr.. Perky.
II am also enclosing a partial
release Of mortgages frpfn Perky
Properties, Inc. the MORTGAGE, To
the Osland Holding Company, OF
Florida. II would appear that a
certain portion Of the property
is still subject TO the lien OF this
mortgage, which was once thrown
into foreclosure after ii was dis
missed.
"As near as I can figure from
the right of way maps which
were loaned me by the State
Road Department, there Is APP
proximately 1890 linear feet in
voIved. This is simply my esti-
nation and the true figures may
actually be less or greater.
Il hope that you will find il
possible to give the county this
property. I realize that you have
had differences with the State
Road Department, but in the
final analysis Monroe County,
and not the State Road Depart
ment, will be the beneficiary up.
on the completion Of the nee
highway.
Trusting that you will lend "a
your cooperation in this behalf
beg 10 remain.
Yours very truly,
w. CURRY HARRIS.

Commissioners. Monroe Coun.

ATLANTIC DEEPER
WATERWAYS BODY
MEETS NOV. 1919
CLAIM ONLY INTRAcoASTAL
LINK MISSING IS NEW JER-
JERSEYS; KEY WEST NEEDS
4o-MILE DEEPENING

Notice has been received by
The Citizen that the Atlantic
Deeper Waterways Association
will meet in Washington, D. c.,
Nov. 1919, for their 31st annual
convention.
Of primary interest to Key
West is a statement in the cir
cular that the Atlantic intra-
coastal waterway is complete ex-
cept for a missing link" across
the State of New Jersey. No meE-
ton is made of the application of
Key West for a deeper water
depth over a 40-mile stretch
from Bahia Honda to Key West
where low water depth goes as
shallow as two feet in some plac-
es. Many yachtSmen coming
here object to using Hawk Chan
mel on the outside the last 40
miles to Key West, which is not
always smooth water.
The Key West application went
to the u. S. Board of Engineers
and must secure approval of that
body before it is sent on to Wash
ington where it is then approved
usually as a matter of form.
The convention, it is pointed
out, will open after the General
Election and before Congress ac-
tually assemblies. Florida Off
GERS are H. Fl. Buchanan, vice
president; w. F. Coachman, Jr.,
director-at-large; E. G. SewelI,
president-at-large, and r. G..
Patterson, director.

my salvation; whom shall / fear?
The Lord is the strength of my life;
of whom shall l be afraid? The
light of wisdom and true knowledge
beams from the heart of God: in
Him there is saving power overcom-
ing the forces of evil. We are not
puppets and kept by Gods grace
without meeting the conditions that
allow God to reign in the soul and
thus reigning providing strength.
Conscious Of God reigning in our
lives we are courageous when at
tackled by foes. The thought Of this
verse is repeated in the two follow
ing verses for the sake of emphasis
V. 4. zone thing have I desired
of the Lord, that will / seek after;
that | may dwell in the house of the
Lord forever" The Psalmist longs
for constant fellowship with the
Lord. 1t is one of the joys of a
Christian to know that there is a
better time coming.
V. 5. "For in the time of trouble
he shall hide me in his pavilion; in
the secret of His tabernacle shall He
hide me; He shall set me upon a
rock" Here is sounded the note of
security and victory. 1t is great
comfort to know that we, His chill
dren, shall not fail.
V. s. II will sing praises unto
the Lord" When the soul is too
full for utterance in speech, song
bursts out of the heart This kind
of music stirs the souls of men.
