me as l profess to be a very poor
sailor, so while he fished ]
shopped and had a shampoo.
Friend husband brought home
several fish and we had some
for dinner. / found the yellow
tails particularly sweet and good.
He fished again on the second
day of our stay and looked so dis
reputable on his return that he
was mistaken for a peddler and
almost driven out of the hotel,
much to the embarrassment of
the housekeeper and much to our
amusement.
One day we set aside for sight
seeing and started out by having
Cuban coffee and a horse-collar
at Pepe's. We couldn't find the
place because we did not know
how to spell it, but finally arriv-
ed there, and found the place
trimming with local color. &.
bare tables with nothing but a
bowl of sugar and a bowl of
sweet condensed milk. Every
one uses condensed milk in their
Cuban coffee and it isn't at all
hard to take. The coffee was
kept hot in a tea kettle set in
pan of boiling water. The horse
collar proved to be a huge CHINA
mon bun with raisins and with
sugar icing on top. Nothing ultra
ultra about Pepe's, but the food
was good, the check was small
and the customers kept coming in
and out all the. time A very
obliging attendant told us where
we could buy the coffee and how
to make il.
HenlingwaY's Home
At this point<ee again encoun-
tered Johnnie, whom we took
with us as guide to show us
the places of interest. We drove
through the Navy Yard where
we were admonished not to take
any pictures. We climbed the
ninety steps to the top of the ia
nous lighthouse Il was all out of
breath and shakey), whence we
could see the entire island and
away out into the water and the
where President Roose-
welt is to make his headquarters,
standing by impressively. We
could also see down into the
grounds of the home of Ernest
Hemingway, the writer, and adj
mire the lovely lawn and beauti-
full trees, and best of all, the
blue bordered swimming pool
with it's emerald green water. His
studio is in a separate building,
and with such quiet and rest

the man is inspired!
Down to earth again to see the
rare birds and several varieties
of doves and pigeons, huge

the visitor it is all very helpful.

around the island on the Roose-

called, and scooted across the
pool like a shot when the attend

sometimes easier to catch by
night. They grow to an enormous
size and their skin is dark and
tough looking. The scales are on
the inside instead of the outside

that name because they are so
hard to skin. There are many
other varieties in the pool and
the attendant told us that Robert
Ripley had written an article
about them.
Open-Air Aquarium
There is an aquarium in Key
West, too, that l forgot to men F!
ton, where an obliging young
man told us all about the fish
and their habits. Most of the
fish were caught in native waters
by regular fishermen and often
by visitors, and representatives
from other cities come here for
the rare and beautiful specimens.
This is the only open-air aqua
rum in the United States.
We saw an octopus, too, at very
close range. He was very much |,

little suction cups on the under
side of each tenacle which give
them a deadly grip on whatever
they encounter. They swim by |

IF HAM-AND-EGGS
WINS NEXT TUESDAY

If the Retirement Life Payments pro-
posal becomes California constitutional
amendment as a result of the vote next
Tuesday:
The state will lose headquarters of
fices of many companies which help
support the state and its people.
Every municipal government in the
state, from state government itself down
through irrigation districts to the near
est hamlet, will face certain bankruptcy
Old people will lose the federal-state
pensions they now receive and in turn
will get 80 worthless scraps of paper
every Thursday.
Prices of food, clothing and other nee
essities of life will rise from a minimum
of three per rcent-representing the gross
income tax carried in the proposed law
to as much as 100 per cent
Every man, woman and child in Cali
fornia will be obliged to pay more than
$500 year-figured on a percapita basis
lin an effort to make the unworkable
plan work
Eastern and midwestern capitalists will
refuse to invest new money in California,
thus withdrawing chances for continued
development of the state
Schools will be closed down entirely,
or at the very least seriously impaired.
because of the lack of funds.
Thousands of governmental workers
will be added to the army of unemployed
because their pay is not available except
in warrants, which business has announc-
ed it will not accept.
The people will be saddled with an
economic and political dictator who can
not be called to answer before the courts,
who cannot be disciplined by the COVER
nor, and who is not subject to the in
tent of the recall laws.
The state will be unable except by
lengthy and costly procedure to get rid
of the plan, even when it proves utterly
disastrous, because it will have been writ
en- into the constitution.
California will be set up as an economi-
cally isolated state with which other
states cannot afford to trade, because
other states cannot accept warrants.
These are the things that will happen
In California if the Ham-and-Egg plan
passes. Is it worth taking a chance on?
We say no-and voters with the welfare
of their state in mind should vote mo-

OUT OF The
FRYING PAN ---'
(Santa Monica Outlook

One of the strongest arguments
against the Ham and Eggs pension
scheme is offered by one of its former
eloquent advocates, Gertrude Coogan, a
sincere, honest and ardent pleader for
those she calls the disinherited. Though
she spoke many times for the initiative
that was defeated last year she insisted
that changes would have to be made to
make it sound and workable.
Under date of March of this year.
Miss Coogan wrote the organization fos-
tering the present bill saying that it is
fundamentally wrong and would "throw
the state out of the frying pan into the
fire.
IF an attempt is made to put it into
practice, as it is now written, the result
will be complete breakdown of the
existing banking facilities" Miss Coogan
declared, land the placing of all private
business under the absolute control of
the administrator and the board direct
ing the affairs of the proposed bank"
The chief promoters of Ham and
Eggs" are not content with exploiting
the worthy people who are eager for the
security it vainly promises. They want
also to exploit business without let or
hindrance.
The letter from Miss Coogan was not
given to the public by the Ham and Eggs
organization. 1t is, however, set forth
III full in book called "Out of the Fry
ing Pan" written by Winston and Marian
Moore, who are thoroughly familiar with
the scheme, and the record of all those
who are and have been connected with it.

BUYING VOTES WITH
HUMAN MISERY

No blame could or should attach to
any person or organization fighting eth
er for or against any proposition on the
ballot next Tuesday-if the campaign is
waged because the person or organiza-
ton actually believes in the principles
or proposals at stake
For those who espouse one proposition
merely to gain votes for another or to
improve a political position, however,
there should be nothing but the strongest
condemnation.
Such an action was that of the Ma
tional Affiliated Chiropractors of Cali
fornia recently in adopting a resolution
that members of the group "do hereby
agree to accept for their professional
services payments in :. warrants"
The association does not give a hoot
about the Ham-Eggs plan. It's efforts
have been directed entirely at putting
over another proposition, No. 2 on the
ballot. The resolution is obviously des-
perate attempt to make friends among
and win votes from the ranks of the
Ham-Eggers.
1t is up to the voters to repudiate such
tactics.

A UNION ASKS
COERCION
(Wall Street JournaD

One OF the proposals made by the Unit
ed Automobile Workers of America look
ing toward settlement of its strike
against the Chrysler Corp, which the
company rejected, throws a sidelight on
both the purposes and the strategy of
this CIO affiliate. The proposal was that
workers whose union membership lapsed
or was terminated should automatically
go to the bottom of the seniority lists.
This is a seemingly innocuous varia-
ton of the union shop demand. But it
is still demand that the employer CO.
cree his men into Joining a particular
union and remaining members of it in
good standing. that is, paying union dues
regularly. Considering how highly wage
workers value their seniority ratings, the
U.A.W.A. proposal was little if at all
milder than the familiar check-off de-
niand. The ChrySler executives may be
supposed to have declined it because they
are unwilling to join the union leaders
in forcing all the companyS employees
into particular organization.
Be it noted that neither the union shop
twin sister to the closed shop-nor the
check-off nor this seniority variation of
the later involves the freedom of work
ers to organize for collective bargaining
All these demands on the contrary, in
volve denial of the individual workers
freedom to remain outside the union
which happens to be making the demands
1t may be and probably is desirable to
union that all the employees of a given
employer, even all those in an entire in
dustry, be members thereof. But it does
not follow that coercive contract be-
tween the employer and union is a mat
ter of elementary fairness or natural
right.
Nor does the refusal of such demand
justify strike, or the continuance of
strike originally called for other reasons.
