UHRBACHS VISITING
WITH OLD FRIENDS
ARRIVED YESTERDAY FOR
SHORT STAY: DELIGHTED
AT CITY'S CHANGES

Mr.. and Mrs. ]. Francis Uhr-
bach, formerly of Key West, who
have been making their home in
Miami for number of years, ar
rived in the city yesterday, ac-
companied by Miss Genevieve
Condo, also of Key West, and
will leave tomorrow.
Mr.. Uhrbach is connected with
the Florida Power and Light Co.,
and this is the first time he has
visited in his home town for IL
years. He and party are glad to
meet their many friends and to
recall days of bygone years.
For 80 years, Mr.. Uhrbach was
connected with the First National
Bank of Key West. He says that
he has kept in touch with Key
West through the years for he has
never failed to keep up his SUBJ
Scription to The Citizen and will
continue to do so.
The entire group expressed
surprise at the many changes
which have taken place in the
city and were pleased to note the
number of new and renovated
buildings.

goes as cuckoo as a clock, wor-
ryin' the life out of dozen drums
and a score of cymbals and other
doodads, until everybody in the
place is as jittery as bowl of
jello in a windstorm. 1t was a
swell wind-up for a grand and
glorious day.
Thanks to Mike and Red, I
was able to get in some nice
plugs for Florida in the press and
over the radio, and l want to tell
you that we are going to get
plenty of Georgia money down
here this winter for these Geor-
gia folks like Florida and just
about all that l met were making
plans to come down here this
winter.
Personally, / think it would be
a smart thing for Florida to put
a state exhibit at the Southeast
ern Fair, for all these people who
attend the show are prospects and
an attractive exhibit would aid in
bringing many additional thou
sands to our state, not only in
the winter but throughout the
year, and such an exhibit should
pay for itself many times over.
The press of Georgia is mighty
friendly to Florida as well, and
most of the papers go out of
their way to say nice things about
us whenever the opportunity pre-
sents itself. They like our CHM
ate, our glorious beaches, our
numerous tourist attractions, and
consider a trip to Florida as very
much worthwhile at any time.
They certainly treated me
mighty fine and you can bet that
the Georgia folks l contact in
Florida are going to get all the
attention can give 'em, for I be-
lieve in bein' neighborly and 1
like to return favors.
So come on down, Crackers,
and you'll find great big ''WEL-
COME" for you on Florida's door
mat.

WEATHER REPORT
HAS MORE FACTS
NOW INCLUDES VELOCITY
OF WIND AND
HUMIDITY

Inclusion of two more items in
the weather report is being
turned in daily by Meteorologist
G. S. Kennedy of Key West
Weather Bureau to The Citizen.
The velocity of the wind, taken
each morning, is stated and the
relative humidity. Yesterday the
wind was 16 miles per hour.
The humidity was 1910.
For the benefit of Key West
boatmen in the daily forecast the
velocity of the wind as indicated
in certain Beaufort in Bowditch
scales will also be pointed out
with note at the bottom of the
column. For instance, ''mod-
crate" winds in this scale, which
is universally used by weather
bureaus, range from 1928 miles
per hour. The term moderate
might be misleading to the lay
man, because that amount of
wind indicates quite rough
weather on the sea.
Humidity, as all know, is that
which makes the air oppressive
at times with the increase of
water vapor in the air. Yester-
day it was 1914. AS a general
rule the humidity, for a COM
Portable atmosphere, should be a
few points below the tempera-
ture. Yesterday the mean tenn
perature was 78. Therefore the
humidity was a little high.

TURKEY DOWNS NEW
RUSSIAN PROPOSALS

Prime Minister Saydam of Tur-
key yesterday declared the rea-
son for the discrimination of
discussions between Russia and
his country was due to new pro-
posals presented the Turkish rep
reSentative in Moscow.
The prime minister said Russia
and Turkey had been exchanging
views on the topics to be dis
cussed before the conference got
underway and that when the
Turkish representative was hand
ed demands hitherto unknown, it
was advisable to terminate the
discussions for the time being.
He reiterated that Turkey and
Russia would continue on the
same friendly terms as were pre-
valent before the conference.
Broadening his statement on
the new proposals the premier
stated Russian demands were not
in line with Turkeys policy in
regards to the Dardanelles, the
ancient Hellespont. The OAR
danelleS is narrow channel
within the Turkish dominion,
about 40 miles in length and
varying from one to four miles in
breadth. 1t has always been a
dispute among major powers and
during the World War the Allies
tried to force their way through
it to capture Constantinople Us
tanbuD but were repulsed. The
Treaty of Lausanne in 1923 guar
anteed freedom of the channel
during peace and for neutrals
when Turkey is at war.

and You're So Beautiful" a song
which he first introduced for Rose
when the latter Little Gibraltar pro-
duced his Casa Manana" at Fort
Worth, Tex, couple of years ago.
That's one point about Rose
whether he be producing in the mid
die of the biggest State in the Union,
atop the waves of the Great Lakes
Gas he did in that water fiesta at
Cleveland, Ohio) or in lost horizon
Of the Worlds Fair-you'1l find his
performers coming back to him.
That's what actors like to hear
about producers, and actors almost
always never hear anything good
about producers.
Another repeating manager is
John Krimsky, who suddenly started
telephoning couple of weeks ago
and traced down Philip Huston, son
of Walter Huston, and an accom-
panying assembly of rococS actors
to revive Naughty Naught."
This, it may be recalled, is that
gaudy story Of life on the old Yale
campus when the New Haven boys
thought the Gibson girls were quite
risque. 1t was unfolded here with
quite a success two years ago, and
now Producer Krimsky has decided
that it is enough Of an antique to
revive it until after the Worlds Fair
which may or may not be a COM
ment about the fair, but Naughty
Naught" is still q ludicrous evening.
Evening star., 1939-01-29

1t is the story of group of vaude-
vile performers who suddenly find
their little lives vitally affected by
forces of good and evil. The force
of good is the stagehand, who is
looking for a man, or rather a spirit,
that he cannot quite define. 1t is
faith, faith in God or goodness that
he really is seeking. The force of
evil is represented by an illusionist
on the vaudeville bill who exposes to
the performers all their individual
weaknesses and tears down what
little confidence they still have in
themselves.
Dowling gives an inspiring per-
formance in the part of Clancy, the
Irish stagehand who insists upon
seeking an misunderstanding faith
while surrounded by the hatreds
and jealousies and evil Of the small
souls.
There are many scenes more SYM
bolistic than realistic, and it is true
that some are a bit confusing.
But Dowling and Barry are posi-
tive the play will be success. And,
perhaps they may prove themselves
right, for there is so much that is
beautiful and moving in this story
of a few unimportant mortals who
struggle to find q meaning to this
life.

ing than view of a bank roll un-
folding.
The story is good, sound frame
work for a lot of emotion. It traces
the life of a German immigrant
who comes to this country in search
of freedom and to exist like a hui
man being instead of a pawn in a
game between rival general stats.
He brings his family over and he
prospers, making his home and his
fortune in a town called Mapleton,
Ohio. When the war comes, his wife
is all muddled 1--WE cannot send
our son over there to shoot down
our people," she says. And he
straightens her out. "They are not
our people," he tells her, in his gut
tural English. These are our peo-
pie now"
So the boy goes of and is killed
and then the fortune is destroyed in
the depression and finally the old
man is beaten to death defending
democracy, trying to argue a Fascist
bund meeting into sticking to the
American way and trying to keep
his grandson from joining. He is
buried to the tune of the "Star
Spangled Banner" and the audience
rises patriotically and cheers spon-
taneously.
If there had been no "Star Span
gled Banner" I think the audience
would have been brought to its feet
anyway. The show has sock, not in
its story and not in its dialogue, but
in its big scenes. The view of i'm
migrants landing in vast babble,
an old-time election parade and riot,
a Fourth of July picnic ending in a
thunder shower, a company of SOL
diers returning from France, a
country club dance receiving the
news that Lindbergh has landed in
Paris, a run on the town bank
these are staged with such consum-
mate skill that they leave the play
goer feeling his heart Is Tapping in
his chest like nag in q hi9h wind.
