der and DO the work al over
again. We will build the na-
tons great battleships Of the
line and then we viii take the
magnificent tubs out in the bay
and scuttle them. Then We can
have more work beginning right
away to build more battleships
and then more and then more.
Battle ships and work no end.
oh. the scheme has wonderful
possibilities. We can burn down
our houses and then have all
that lovely work TO do building
them over again. II Is beau
tiful idea If you look at II by and
large and up and down and all
'round-maybe.
There Is the matter Of foreign
trade. We want foreign trade
surely enough. We must have 1t
and plenty Of 1t. or at least we
think we must, and In any event
We want it. People OF other
nations want to trade. too. so
that matter should be easy. But
We build a tariff wall around
ourselves high enough to keep
out as far as possible the desir-
able products OF the other coun-
tries and we send away as much
OF the material good things of
life as we can and take in a fine
assortment of promises to pay.
Then Of course we grow fat and
sleek and contented on prom
isess to pay. Maybe you. dear
reader, had not noticed this.
Another bright notion is to
artificially force up market
prices Of necessities by volun-
tarily created scarcity. That is
one Of the niftiest ideas that
ever was for providing more
food and clothing for people.
II does more than that for in
effect 1t cuts down wages and
incomes. Could anything else
be more helpful
1t is not, it seems, so difficult
to find remedies for any and all
the problems that confront us,
or for ways to put these rem
edies into effect; we should say
not; only. somehow, most of the
derned things won't work.

FOOLISH IDEAS

Editor, The Times: Misled by
the clamor for employment, too
many have accepted the idea
and fixed it in their minds that
il is work that people want.
Well, work is essential whether
people want 1t or not. It is
condition laid down by the In
finite that we must work, that
is to say render some sort of
wealth-producing or h elpful
service in order that we may
eat, wear clothes and have shell
ter over our heads. And 1t is
the truth that We do not have
these necessities unless some
body works to produce them
note that somebody" The work
must be productive, not mere
motion.
Anyway. if it is work that
people think they want let us
make plenty of work. This is
great idea. We will plant our
gardens and then pillow them un-

BRITAIN. FRANCE REAP
OWN HARVEST

Editor. The Times: Would like
10 say = few words In regards
10 the article by Doug Morris.
First Of ali. I am speaking as
an American and from a purely
American point OF view. ] am
not at all influenced by the
flood OF British propaganda and
refuse 10 believe that all OF
Great Britain's troubles are ours.
We pulled the ehestnuts out
OF the fire for the allies the last
time and for all our trouble
they still owe US the neat little
sum of four billion dollars. We
went along on the thinly dis
gutsed excuse OF making the
world safe for democracy and
after that now famous peace
treaty was signed. we took one
look and refused to ratify such a
document. A document which
arbitrarily changed the map Of
Europe. created new countries at
the expense OF millions Of people
and in short. was about the most
undemocratic treaty ever signed.
/ wish to add. one does not have
TO climb on Mr.. Hitler's band
wagon to understand the full
meaning of such document and
its consequences.
The current crisis il a direct
result OF that peace treaty and
therefor 1t is not our war, but
Frances and England's. Are we
to be forever ready To sacrifice
our men at England's beckon-
ing Have we not problems Of
our own Has not England
solemnly sworn to come to Po-
lands aid and then let the poor
Poles fight alone? These last
few weeks should give us some
thing to think about.
thoroughly disagreed with
Mr.. Morris, who says we have
no right to talk of neutrality.
We are a nation, fully grown up,
and no colony Of England and
have a right to our own way
Of living; and furthermore, we
owe il to our children to build
up a big and powerful country
and not be a perpetual ally Of
imperialistic Great Britain. Our
two oceans and a sound policy of
minding our own business should
be sufficient to keep us out OF

NEW LAWS PROVISIONS

Essential points of the new neutrality
law now in effect are the following:
Sale of arms, ammunition and nipple
ments of war generally to belligerent ma
tions is permitted, provided they pay cash
and transport the goods in foreign ships.
Bars American vessels from belli-
gerent ports. Exceptions are made with
respect to ports in the South Atlantic, and
generally to those not in an actual war
zone. These exceptions may be modified
by the President as circumstances make
desirable.
Americans are forbidden to travel on
belligerent ships, with certain minor ex-
ceptions.
The President is authorized to restrict
the use of American ports by belligerent
submarines or armed merchant vessels.
The arming of American merchant ships,
except with small arms, is forbidden.
Dealing in bonds or other obligations
of belligerent nations is forbidden, and no
credit may be extended to them by the
United States or it's citizens. No funds for
belligerents may be solicited in the United
States, except for medical aid, foods and
clothing to relieve suffering.
Designation of which are considered
belligerent nations is left to the President.

BUT TWAS EVER THUS
CThe Arcadian)

The Key West Citizen, in philosophic mood,
says: Most great men are best known by their
defeats or failures instead of by their victories
Human nature is that way Few can name the
many victories of Napoleon but nearly all can re-
call his overwhelming defeat at Waterloo A
baseball epic was written for Casey, the mighty
king of swat, not for his prowess with the willow
but for the one time he struck out. Nobody has
ever heard of the pitcher who performed the
extraordinary feat of striking out Casey. That
pitchers name belongs in the hall of fame. but
it is lost to history and so he joins the galaxy of
forgotten men,
We believe it was Mr.. Shakespeare who put
up similar sentiment in tabloid form when he
said; The evil that men do lives after them;
the good is oft inferred with their bones

YACHT CLUB GROWS

Last Saturday the members of Key
West Yacht Club and number of guests
celebrated the opening of the new club
house at Garrison Blight The building
has been completely renovated, fine flag
pole erected and an outdoor fireplace
built Some furniture and few other
improvements are needed, but these APP
pear to be we'll on the way.
In accomplishing the results in the
short space of one year, Commodore
James D. MacMullen before he retired in
favor of Melvin E. Russell announced to
members and guests that all outstanding
bills had been paid. This is a rare occur
ence in the life of any new organization
and speaks well for the business acumen
of the officers of the Yacht Club.
One of the pertinent statements by
Former Commodore MacMullen was that
the Yacht Club will now turn more atten-
ton to the matter of building boat basin
at Garrison Blight. He quickly refuted
current rumors by announcing that the
basin would not be exclusively for yachts,
but would be land-locked harbor for all
classes of vessels drawing not more than
eight feet of water. Nor will the Yacht
Club have control of the Blight. That will
be municipal operation, so that the pub
lie, not just one group of citizens, will have
free access to the basin.
Key West needs a yacht and boat
basin. The need becomes more and more
evident as yachts from the north begin ap-
pearing in the harbor. Until few weeks
ago they might be moored Or anchored in
the submarine base. That is now closed
and there is no safe moorage and anchor
age for small craft except at private
docks.
AS The Citizen has pointed out be-
fore, the presence of large number of
yachts at Key West means a lot of bust
ness for Key West. Each vessel requires
supplies and services of all kinds. No re-
sort city can hope to reach the top in that
field unless it does have a yacht basin.
The Citizen hopes the members of the
Key West Yacht Club put as much effort
into procuring a yacht basin as they have
in providing the organization with home.
And if the basin is built with an eye to
economy, as the yacht club was built, the
city will save money and have fine yacht
BASIN More power to the yacht club
may their sails never go empty.
