People who don't like games sit

from sedate dinners to lavish enter

affairs, except those given for charity
and war relief, are getting scarce.
The trend is toward smaller, in

Dairy Farmers Halt
Strike 10 Accept
Mediation by State
Detroit Producers
Win Price Increase
After 4-Doy Bottle
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DETROIT, Dec. 20-A strike OF
5000 United Dairy Farmers, begun
four days ago in an attempt to shut
off Detroit's milk supply to enforce
price and collective bargaining de-
mands. ended late today when the
strikers accepted Gov. Murray D.
Van Wagoner's plan Of State-spon-
sored mediation.
Picketing will be discontinued dur
ing mediation and all milk now being
diverted will be assembled and
shipped to Detroit.
Ralph H. Marlatt, newly named
national organizing director for the
U. D. F., said a committee of strikers
would go to Lansing Monday to con-
fer with Gov. Van Wagner and the
State Labor Mediation Board.
Mr.. Marlatt, who returned today
from Washington conferences with
John l.. Lewis, said the U. D. F. has
been granted a charter by the
United Mine Workers. 1t is the first
time in c. I. o. history that farm
organization has been granted a
national union charter.
A nine-man arbitration board last
night awarded farmers in the De-
troit area price increase, effective
January /, establishing levels of 50
a hundredweight for class l milk
(bottled sales and so cents above
the Federal condensary code for
class II manufactured milk. This
boosted the first category by 81
cents, the second by so cents, and
is expected to result in a 1-cent-
a-quart increase in the price to con-
sumers, making quart delivered at
homes cost IA cents.

EYES ON THE GROUND

We have read fanciful story of a
young man who once found SIS bill in the
road, an incident which proved to be his
undoing. From that time on he kept his
ewes on the ground as he walked.
During the next 80 years, he found
many articles in his path, and accumulated
81. so in silver coins, % pennies, 1873 but
tons. 27,3O1 pins hunched back, a miserly
character and a rotten disposition
Drawing a moral from the yarn, the
writer points out that while finding these
things of little value, the young man lost the
glory of the sunshine, the smiles of friends,
the beauty of flowers, trees and blue
skies
A good many businss men, he says, are
like that-keeping their eyes glued to the
ground and failing to see what is going on
around them. and adds:
Some watch their competitors prices
and sales so intently that they lose all per-
spective about their own business. Some
are so anxious about making and squeezing
a dollar today that they do not foresee the
development of tomorrow. Others are so
intent on finding fault that they never find
life.
From year to year, these business
men pick up buttons and pins from the
ground. while their more alert brothers
pick business plums from the trees. and at
the same time take part in community de-
velopment. with their eyes on tomorrow,
instead of yesterday

WORKING FOR GOOD HEALTH

Good health should certainly interest
the people of Key West.
1t is boon to all individuals fortunate
enough to be so blessed but unfortunately

FOR AN OCCASIONAL YES

Key Vests newly formed joint adj
vertising committee, although it hardly has
had time to get into operation, seems to
have acquired the reputation among some
local business men of being a mo" ma
chine
And that is no reflection on the COM
nlittee, because the men who call it that are
highly pleased that some agency will take
Off their shoulders the problem of convinc-
ing statesmen for various ideas that they
don't wart any. From their standpoint, the
system is simply to send the salesman of
ideas to the committee, where he will be
told ono" for the entire community
We think the committee should be con-
siderably more than that, and, since little
Information has come out of the group since
its formation, perhaps it is.
In the first place, as the committee
members announced at the time of their
formation, the real purpose of the group IS
to coordinate the various advertising cam
paigns carried on from Monroe county
That is, the chamber of commerce, Over
seas Road and Toll Bridge District, city,
county and others, will study their separate
appropriations together to avoid conflicts
and to spread their story as far as their
money will carry it.
That is the first purpose of the group,
and they will carry it out.
1t is in the secondary function Of
Better Business Bureau, that the mo" ques-
ton comes up.
The committee, along with its other
Cut;es will study advertising and pro-
motional schemes which their sponsors
wish to sell in Key West Thus, promoter
must go before the committee, presenting
his proposition in writing, before he can be-
gin negotiations with any Individual firm or
division of the group.
The committee will have the authority
to saw mo- and end the question there.
AS it happens, however, Key West at
this point could use some new ideas. Bad
ideas, no, if you know they are bad. Good
ideas, emphatically yes, and to find the
good ideas the committee will have to make
an impartial and careful study of them
all.
