Premier Edouard Daladier Of
France. now invested with the
powers of dictator. indicated that
he would be ready To deal with the
quarrel in a manner as moderate
as Mussolini's but against a back
ground of armed strength also as
great as that of the italian pre-
mier. France moved to strengthen
her naval forces in the Mediter-
ranean even while expressing sat
isfaction with Mussolini's attitude
There is little hope, however
that Italy and France can sudden
ly pat each other on the back and
call off their controversy. Both ma
tiOnS now are under dictatorial re-
gimes. Daladier's role as strong
man in France depends upon pro-
tecting every inch of French soil.

Fascist movement has grown pow

Wallace was unable to explain
the origin OF a fire which licked
up through the floor behind the
cockpit when the plane. after
bounding several hundred feet in
field a mile from the airport,
crashed into a fence. The ignition
and gasoline lines had been cut

This fire evidently was respon-

the plane and turned it into a

Mediterranean and Italian naval
equality with France.
,. Replacement of the Frencn-
Italian treaty of 1885, which Italy
abrogated last December, by
new. treaty settling the status OF
Tunisia. Djibouti and the Canal.
3. Recognition by Italy that the
settlement of these questions wipes
out any and all obligations France
might have had toward Italy as
the result of the secret London
treaty of 1915, under which Italy
was promised concessions for join
ing in the World war
Government circles, discussing
Mussolini's speech, said that it con-
tanned these main points:
l. Italy desires a peace based on
recognition by all major European
powers in general and France in
particular of Italy's "sacrosanct
rights"
2. The Berlin Rome axis re-
mains solid.
3. Outstanding problems between
Italy and France must be settled
at once or the present breach sep
arating the countries may become
so wide that it might prove impos-
sible to bridge it by peaceful
means.
4. Italy must be predominant in
the Mediterranean, which, to Ital-
ianS, includes the Adriatic.
5. Italy must continue arming
turning out even more ships, can
mons and airplanes.

house that Britain is not consider
ing the possibility of an economic
boycott of Germany.
Butler replied in the negative
when conservative members asked
if the government was considering
such a method of stopping Nazi
expansion in Central Europe.
Butler told Philip Noel-Bak la
borite, that the government had
not protested to Berlin against the
German annexation of the Memel
district.
Butler agreed with Arthur Hen
derson, laborite. that the anneXa-
ton was contrary to Hitlers prom
ises in the British-German declar-
alton at Munich. He told Hender-
son Britain had expressed to Lith-
uania sympathy in the situation
in which Lithuania has been plac-
ed.

that the German-R -Rumanian trade

tice will depend on the manner in
which it is carried out. Under these
circumstances, the government must

PROJECT SPONSORSHIP URGENT

B. G. Moreno, area supervisor of
WPA, has called attention to a seriohs sit
uation. The majority of the work relief
projects under way in Key West will be
closed about Aug. Is, according to state
ment appearing in The Citizen few days
ago. No other projects have been APP
proved, although three which may give
employment to about third Of the men
now engaged on VIVA work are under
consideration at WPA headquarters, jack
sonyille Supervisor Moreno states in this
connection, however, that the sponsors
contributions have not been made avail
able.
It does not take a great stretch of the
Imagination to realize what may be the
plight of our unemployed if the WPA
ceases in this area. Just to feed, clothe
ard shelter the families on relief would put
a severe strain on the taxpayers. At pres
emf neither the city nor the county is fl
nancially in position to undertake such
task. Yet these unfortunate people can
not be permitted to starve.
The way to prevent such a catas-
trophe is to provide them with federal
work. The only way such work can be
provided is by sponsorship of the city and
county. Surely city and county that can
find money for an addition to the court
house, the purchase of new cars for NUM-
cipal employees and other relatively unirn-
portant purposes should be able to raise
cash for financing share of the cost of
new WPA projects.
Key West needs beaches, street i'm
provements and sewer and water connec-
tions Few of our taxpayers would pro-
test expenditures for such projects. Our
less fortunate citizens reed the work that
type of undertaking would require; the
city needs better facilities for tourists, bet
ter sanitation and other improvements.
The Citizen believes our civic organ
izations should combine in demanding
some action by our councilmen and our
county commissioners in solving the work
relief and Improvement problems. It may
be necessary to mortgage the future-tha
is, sell county and city bonds or other Sc
curities to finance needed projects. A way
can be found, a way must be found. We've
got to quit fiddling around this question
and do something

LINcoLN's GRAMMAR

An intimate memento of Abraham
Lincoln and his youthful sweetheart, Ann
Rutledge, was recently received by the
Library of Congress, where it will be pre-
served with other relics of our first
martyred president. 1t is the Kirkham's
Grammar which Lincoln and Ann studied
in New Salem, H., 100 years ago.
Textbooks were scarce in those days
and Lincoln obtained the grammar second
hand from it's former owner, walking a
dozen miles to secure it. This was in 1881,
when he was clerking in New Salem
store and boarding with AIMS parents.
When he had mastered its contents he
gave the book to Ann, writing on the title
page, "Ann M. Rutledge is now learning
grammar
1t is said that Abraham and Ann be-
came engaged or July A, 1888, shortly be-
fore Lincoln's election to the state legis-
lature. Ann was stricken with malarial
fever and died August IS, 1885, and inti-
mate friends of Lincoln declared he never
recovered from his grief for the only wo-
man he ever truly loved.
The book was preserved by the Rut-
ledge family, finally coming into the pos
session of William Rutledge of Milton,
Mont, nephew of Ann. From him it was
borrowed by Miss Jane Hamand for the
public library of Decatur, I'll. Not long
ago, with Mr.. Rutledge's consent. she pre-
sented it to the Congressional Library.
There it may now be seen in the case which
also contains Lincoln's Bible in which he
inscribed. his family records with his own
hand.

: Congressman Martin L. Sweeney dun
ned the king of England for the $1,000
100000 and more owed us by that coun-
try. It was his only chance for it is not
likely that another British king will visit
these shores in generation and beyond
the peradventure of doubt the debt will
mot be paid within a generation if ever.
While the occasion was not appropriate
and the incident regrettable it does bring
forcibly to the minds of the American and
British people that the huge war debt still
exists and that Great Britain is continuing
to subsidize the building of super-dread-
naughts like the Queen Mary and Queen
Elizabeth which compete with our own
steamship lines. No other people would
stand for such treatment. Humble sub
mission to ingratitude is one thing. and
downright dumbness is another.
