THE PHILIPPINES

= Among the many problems bearing
Philippines is one of the most important,
and one that is likely to cause fireworks in
Congress when certain proposed legisla-
ton is brought up.
By the terms of the present law,
passed in 1884, the Philippine Islands are
to be given full independence in 1945, but
Japanese aggression in the Far East has
caused many Filipinos to feel that they
would be better off by remaining under
the protection of the United States.
A joint American-Philippine commit
tee has recommended that economic con-
cessions to the Islands be continued until
1860, and legislation to that end will be
sought. Under the present law they would
be subject to payment of full American
duties after 1915. The new proposal is to
impose duties gradually-at the rate of
five per cent year for 20 years, reach
ing 100 per cent. or the same that other
nations pay, in 1860. n
At present, certain large quotas OF
Philippine products are admitted to the
United States free of duty, while full duty
must be paid on any excess above the es-
tablished quotas.
It may be seen that the Philippine
problem involves both political and eco
nomic questions, and must also be con-
sidered in connection with preparations
for national defense. Whether the Islands
are an asset or liability to Uncle Sam is
matter upon which so-called experts dis
agree.

KEY WEST IN DAYS GONE BY
Happenings Here Just Ten Years Ago Today As Taken
From The Files OF The Citizen

Excavation of the northwest
entrance to Key West harbor is
contemplated by Lieutenant
Colonel L. V. Frazier, head of the
corps of government engineers of
the Florida District, with head
quarters in Jacksonville. This is
considered to be one of the most
highly important harbor improve
ment projects in the history of
this port, as it will prove an i'm
mense saving of time and money
for coastwise shipping by en-
abling the largest ships to ply di-
rectly through the local channel
off Fort Taylor, passing within
plain view of the city, and Short
en- the voyage by about 40 miles
by eliminating the neceSsitys of
going out by Tortugas, as is now
being done.

garding advertising and publicity are cur
rently popular in Key West. Perhaps the
same Ease notions prevail elsewhere, but
The Citizen is a Key West institution it
undertakes to speak authoritatively only
on local opinion.
One Key West automobile dealer was
approached not long ago and asked to adj
vertise a new model in The Citizen.4
"Why should I advertise in The Citi-
zen and make the owner richer than he is
now?'', was this dealers response to the
solicitation.
The proprietor of a restaurant doing
a substantial business created by the
tourist influx was solicited for an adver-
Using contract.
"Why should advertise-I've got so
much business now l can't handle it,, was
this mans reaction to the proposal.
81 haven't got the money, said the
proprietor of a downtown shop crowded
from morning until night with townsfolk
and visitors.
II don't think it does any good to
spend our money for outside Advertising,
said a merchant when requested to con-
tribute to a fund to send Key West book
lets all over the country.
The truth is that all these statements
are false The automobile dealer works
for concern headed by an immensely
wealthy man who built his fortune by ad
vertising his cars; the restaurant proprie-
tor is facing stiff competition that may
some day empty his establishment of GUS
toners; the shop owner is well-to-do and
making money hand over fist, and the mer-
chart does not realize that his present
prosperity is based to large extent on
the increased tourist trade developed by
the free publicity given the city when
Overseas highway was nearing compile
ton.
Investigation reveals that few of
our business people, including the restau-
rant proprietor and the shop owner just
quoted, are doing all they can to advertise
this city the wrong way. They are not
giving good service. Every poorly served
visitor is potential knocker of Key West.
For instance, visitors have complained to
The Citizen that they have found cock
reaches and ants in their food at certain
restaurant, while the proprietor of one es-
tablishment has posted sign informing
visitors that fountain pens will be filled
for five cents each, Of such things is i'll
will created.
The neral is that Key West must be-
come publicity minded if the city is to sur.
vive in the face of the fierce competition
being waged by thousands of other COM
munities for tourist trade. Key West must
advertise Key West, the business people of
Key West must advertise their goods and
services and good value and good service
and citizens generally must be brought to
realize that no community can prosper
without community support of proper pub
licity promotion.

The Citizen was in error in it's news
story concerning the vote in 1884 on the
proposal to abolish the criminal court
when it stated that it was defeated by a
vote of 8 to l. The actual vote for the
proposal was 401, against $50, so a switch
of IS votes would have affirmed the pro-
