WHAT'S AT STAKE IN EUROPE?

The war in Europe, despite propa-
ganda and debate, represents a struggle
between two contending ideals of govern
ment. with Great Britain and France rep
resenting the idea of democratic self-gov-
eminent and Germany representing auto
cratic dictatorship.
There is more to the fight than bat
tie for possessions, although the Allies
have much to lose if they are conquered
and Germany considerable booty to gain
if triumphant.
The world today includes group of
nations, of which Germany is the leader,
ready to use force to gain any desired end.
Japan belongs to the group and is as dam
gerous in the Far East as Germany is in
Europe. Russia shows the same fangs and
nobody yet knows whether Mussolini has
recanted his worship of military force and
his contempt for democratic processes.
Nobody knows how or where the en-
gagement may spread but there is the
possibility that other nations will be in
volved before the firing ceases. 1t may
please the United States, as nation. to
pretend that she is not concerned with the
outcome of the battle but the facts are
against the pretense.

A BUILDING BOOM STARTING?

A casual drive around the city these
days is likely to prove Illuminating. The
most striking development is that con-
siderable volume of new construction is
getting under way Quite aside from the
huge project on the Trumbo section where
the navy is building seaplane base, there
IS lot Of other work going on.
On this street lot is being cleared;
on the next plants and shrubs are being
planted by man who is improving his
lot before building a home; on a third the
foundations for home are being poured;
on a fourth the walls of a new dwelling
are going up; on a fifth family is pre-
pairing to move out of temporary quarters
in a garage into nice new house.
Then pick up the latest edition of The
Citizen. There you find that man from
Washington has just bought three old Key
West residences and is starting a substan-
tial Job of reconstruction and renovation;
that a woman living in New York has sold
part of a waterfront lot to a man and
woman now residents of Washington; that
building permits have been issued to sew
eral local residents for new homes; that
contract has been awarded local builder
for $4,000 home for a new resident;
that several lots in the MartellO Tower
section have been sold for substantial cash
prices; that Key West architect is work
ing on plans for three new residences or
dered by newcomers to the community.
Add these small developments to an
nouncements that plans and estimates for
a water supply system from the mainland
are proceeding slowly but surely through
the federal lending machinery at Wash
ington; that the Federal Housing Authority
is about to loan the Key West Housing
Authority between 100000 and $8OO,OOO
for a low-rental housing project; that
state officials are getting busy on extern
sion of Overseas Highway Improvement
plans; that city, county and civic officials
are steadily moving toward development
of recreational and other facilities.
The sum total of all these events is
new prosperity for Key West. Any man
who neglects to pay his taxes this year will
stand good chance to lose his property to
someone who sees the handwriting on the
wall of our economic outlook. Key West
property is in demand. 1t is worth keep
ing for use or selling for the use of others
If you want to be on the bandwagOn
of municipal progress when it goes by
don't sell Key West short.

GOOD TAXES VERSUS BAD TAXES

So far as we have been able to dis
tinguish there are two kinds of taxes, good
taxes and bad taxes.
Good taxes are those that levy upon
other people and bad taxes are those that
make us pay.
Likewise, there is wise expenditure of
public money and foolish expenditure.
Wise expenditure promotes our idea
of a public necessity (and maybe affords
an opportunity for a little profit on the
side) and foolish expenditures are those
which, so far as we can judge, do not di-
rectly put cash, or benefits, in our pockets.
If you will thoroughly understand the
distinction that we make in regards to
taxes and expenditures you will be able to
understand lot of the squawking that
you hear.

CONE PUSHED
WATER PROJECT

Continued from Page One)
Governor Cone shook hands with
all and sundry when he alighted
from his car at the hotel In his
suite on the second floor of the
hotel he stripped off his coat, or
dered glass of milk and re-
clined on his bed.
While slipping his milk he
spoke expansively of his visit to
Washington, told how he had
discussed the water project with
a number of officials of the Re-
construction Finance Corpora
ton and the Works Progress Ad-
ministration and stated that he
had been advised the President
would approve of the applica-
ton.
There seems to be no question
about the RFC advancing 1,000,-
900 as loan to your aqueduct
commission and the WPA APP
proving a project for 100000 for
labor on that job, the governor
asserted. when I got there the
project seemed to have begged
down. l tried to give it a shot
in the arm, and think l did some
good"
At the dinner the governor
was presented by President
Everett Russell of the Chamber
of Commerce. To the 80 city,
county, highway and civic Off
Gals on hand, the governor re-
peated some of his earlier state
ments on the water project and
promised his cooperation on the
highway extension plans.
He told several stories, all
humorous, concluding with one
about Key West having arrived
at that stage of its development
where it could eat higher up on
the hog.
! you've grown and developed,
the governor declared. you've
come along fast, and are going
places. I'll do all can to help
you on your way"
Councilman Ernest Ramsey al
so spoke briefly, relating what
had been told the public and
civic officials by Chairman Hale
with reference to the highway.
After the governor spoke, Presi-
dent Russell of the Chamber
thanked the states chief eXecu-
tive for the visit and his interest
/ in the city and county.
7 Among the sidelights of the
governors visit was his vocifer-
Gus applause when his favorite
music. "Suwanee', was played
by the La Concha orchestra, and
his obvious pleasure when Cham
Der of Commerce officials pre-
sented him. with a handsome

Sunday School Lesson

ly put away in rock tomb. But,
remembering Jesus many pro-
phetic words that he would rise
from the dead on the third day,
they went back to PLATE, request
ing that he seal the tomb with the
official Roman seal and place an
armed guard there to make sure
that. his disciples did not enter
the tomb, take away the body of
Jesus and then go about declar-
ing that he had risen from the
dead. The request was granted:
the great sepulchre stone was
sealed, and a guard of soldiers
placed before it.
Just as soon as they could, aft
er the end of the Sabbath, Mary
Magdalene and the other Mary
returned to the sepulchre with
more spices to anoint the body
of their Lord, probably feeling
that the hasty preparations were
not as complete as they would
like for them to have been. Ar
irving at the sepulchre, they were
surprised to see the heavy stone
rolled away from the door and an
angel sitting on it. The angel
told them that Jesus, whom they
sought, was not there. but had
risen, even as he had said. After
having seen with their own eyes
that what the angel said was true,
they were told to 60 quickly and
tell his disciples that Christ had
risen from the dead and would
meet them in Galilee.
Trembling with excitement.
hardly able to comprehend what
they had seen and heard, burst
I ing with joy in the fact that their
Lord was not dead, these women
ran at once to give the disciples
news of what had happened. As
they were running out Of the
garden, Jesus met them, called
unto them and quoted them with
the simple salutation, "All hail..
They fell down at his feet and
worshipped him.
The authenticity of the Chris
tian faith stands or falls on. the
reality of the resurrection of Je-
sus Christ. The written records
of the gospels carry conviction,
but there are other facts even
more conducive to faith. The fact
that the early followers of Jesus
changed from the traditional day
of worship to the first day of the
week in recognition of some great
occasion to be cornmemorated is
noteworthy. The transformation
then brought about in the con-
duct of his disciples testified elo-
quently to some new and dynamic
source of faith and confidence.
Peter, who denied his Lord three
times in terror. after the resur-
rection faced the opposition and
ridicule of the scribes and Phari-
sees. and courageously preached
the pentecosta1 sermon, winning
