KEEP OUT OF WAR
Jacksonville Tribune)

In the last ten days the country has become
alarmed over recent utterances of President
Roosevelt which have had the effect of creating
the frame of the Presidential mind. Mr.. Roose-
velt's words have been as frightening as they
have been amazing.
Conduct of American foreign relations is a
difficult, complicated undertaking The Presi-
dent in conduct of foreign relations should have
and under the Constitution does have-great
latitude for action. Moreover in matter of for
eign affairs the President should speak for the
entire nation within the lines of our traditional
policies and when he does so deserves the sup
port of all of us.
The primary and foremost objective of Ann
erican foreign policy should be to keep this co,n-
try at honorable peace with the remainder of the
world. AS long as the President pursues that
course he is entitled to the support Of every cti-
support which he received, for instance, at
the time the japanese bombed the American gum
boat Panay.
But when the President diverts from the task
OF keeping the country at peace with the world
and becomes saber RATHER, it is patriotism Of
the highest order to call him back TO what should
be his real objective-namel keeping this coun-
try at peace. Indeed, under such circumstances,
blind support of the President whoever he may
be, is a negation of the democratic process After
all this country is still democracy and as such
its people still have right to voice their feelings
We have not yet reached the point where Amer
lean blood must be shed solely because leader
thinks it should be done.

Sunday School Lesson

Therefore. when, after a three
day period. the people gathered
to hear what the king had decid-
ed, Rehoboam disregarded the
counsel of the older men and an
swered them according as the
young men had advised He de-
clared. MY father made your
yoke heavy, but / will add to
your yoke: my father chaStised
you with whips. but / viii chas-
tise you with scorpions.
The threat is inconceivably
foolish and all the more so because
it probably did not represent any
definite intention, and certainly
was backed by no force adequate
to carry it out. Passion and Of
Tended dignity are the worst
guide for conduct. Threats are
always mistakes. A sieve of oats,
not whip, attracts horse to
the halter. If Rehoboam had
wished to split the kingdom, he
could have found no better wedge
than this clustering promise of
tyranny''-Alexa MacLaren.
Foolish mani His selfish lust for
power cost him his kingdom. As
Ahijah had foretold, Rehoboam
lost the greater part of his king
dom, for when the ten tribes
learned that there was to be no
hope of respite from the unjust
and burdensome tasks which had
been imposed upon them, they
formally withdrew and took their
departure and to Rehoboam was
left only the tribute of Judah.
Thus, through bitter expert
ence, Rehoboam learned the les
son that is still hard for young
people to learn. the value of the
advice of older people. As one
writer says, "a hard lesson this
for youth to learn. Age may be
too conservative through living
too much in the past. or doubtful
of the success of high enterprises
through some failure of force.
age may be disillusioned, lose its
vision, and lack something of the
eagerness and energy of youth.
But age has a wisdom purchased
at a high price, having seen and
sometimes suffered much. The
advice of age is most likely to
restrain, and the danger of age is
to restrain too much. But for all
that. in difficult situation, the
youth who scorns the advice of
his elders is likely to pay a high
price for his own experience. We
have to learn so many things for
ourselves and our learning often
costs us dearly; if only we were
willing to accept what other peo-
pie have learned, how much we
should save ourselves.

REHoBoAM: 4 MAN WHO
MADE A FOOLISH CHOICE
international Sunday School Les
son for July is, 1899
Golden Text: "a mans
pride shall bring him low
Proverbs 2s:23.


Lesson Text: I Kings l2:l-29
Reared in the court of Solomon,
his father. under the care Of
Naamah. his mother, who was an
Anmonitess, one of the many for
eign women whom Solomon took
to wife very early in his reign,
Rehoboam was what we would
say today too soft" and without
the strength of character neces-
sary to make a successful SOW
ereign. Coddled by his heather
mother, spoiled by her many fe-
made slaves, it is no wonder that
this boy grew UP to be selfish,
thinking only of himself and lack
ing the ability to make decisions
for himself.
Thus, when, upon succeeding
to the throne of Solomon, his
father, Rehoboan was confronted
by the children of Israel, led by
Jeroboar1, who demanded some
relief from the burdens imposed
upon them by Solomon, Reho-
beam felt it necessary to turn to
someone for help in settling this
inomentpus question First he
turned to the older men who had
been his fathers advisors. They,
knowing the rebellious attitude
Of the people, advised the young
king to speak graciously to his
subjects, and to LET them know
that he, during all the years of
his reign, would be sympathetic
with them, would be their servant
and would have their welfare al
ways in mind. This, they felt,
would appease the people and
would permit the young king to
have time to settle on a policy
for the coming years of his reign.
Whether these old men gave
this advice because they were
moved with sympathy toward the
burdened people, or whether
they so advised as a natto- of po-
litical policy, the advice they
gave was wise and would prob
ably have satisfied the people
for the time being. However. Re-
hoboam was not satisfied with It.
Selfish, hot-headed, he had no
idea of being anyone's servant,
nor, did he care In the least what
happened to these people.
So refusing to follow the coun-
sic of the older men, he turned
to a group of young men who
probably had grown up with him
in the court Of his father. They,
like, Rehoboar1, apparently were
selfish, needless of the justice of
the, request of the people and
careless of the effects of their
advice. They advised Rehoboam
to be ''hard" on the people, to
show his power and to flauht his
position before them.

WHERE'S THE BEACH2'

lnaL Qu0SuOn II ASkeH Dy nearly
every visitor reaching Key West. Ashamed
Of the STRAIGHTFORWARD. ill-kept stretches
of sand along our Atlantic shore, the aver
age Key Wester tries either to send the
bather into the deep pool at the submarine
base, or suggests the beach at Boca Chica.
He does not point with pride and proudly
direct the visitor to the inadequate beaches
son the island. Why is that situation al
lowed to exist?
For years the need of decent beach
here has been apparent to everyone.
When Overseas highway was about to be
opened to the mainland this need became
more evident. The Citizen and many pub
lic-spirited citizens demanded official ac-
ton to provide good public beach and
proper bathing facilities. What was done
by our public officials? Virtually nothing
and the little that was done was soon for
gotten
Is nothing to be done this summer and
fall to provide our residents and our visi-
tors with beaches? Don't our public of
ficials recognize the fact beach facilities
are as necessary as sunshine in catering to
the winter tourist? What hotel or room
inghouse has not lost business because of
our lack of adequate beaches? Isn't it
realized that the fresh money coming in
over the highway will not be spent here un-
less we do something to make the visitor
want to stay here?
Let's get busy on this matter at once.
1t probably is too late to get WPA beach
project through this year. But we can
make some provision, ask the county COM
mission to make some provision, in the next
budget for sponsorship of beach project.
When the commission holds its budget
hearing late this month our influential citi-
zens must demand beach project spon-
sorship fund.
What can be done to provide our win
ter visitors this season with beach facili-
ties? It has been suggested that the Coral
Isle Casino and beach be leased from the
Sweeney estate and reconditioned as
temporary public bathing resort. If need
be prison labor may be used to clean up
the beach and keep it clean The city
might be able to let out service conces-
sion at the Casino to cover the cost of
maintaining and policing the beach.
This idea is worth official investiga-
ton. Key West must do something to
keep the visitor here. Many hundreds
turn back to the mainland every month be-
cause the city doesn't provide them with a
beach where they can soak up our sum
shine. Northerners pay plenty every winter
to acquire Florida tan. The majority of
them won't pay cent just to look at the
blue waters tapping our shores, They
want to get in the water without snagging
their toes on rocks and messing up their
bodies with slime, scum and filth.
