AND STILL WE DRIFT

Senator Robert Taft several days ago
tossed three pertinent questions at Presi-
dent Roosevelt, but in these times he isn't
likely to get an answer. Neither is anyone
else who asks the same questions about any
line OF human endeavOr.
Senator Taft wanted to know:
Where are we going?
2-How are we going to get there?
3-How will we get back if we do get
there and do get back?
Anyone who feels reflective about the
ways cf the world might spend quiet eve
ming asking those question about HIM
self, Florida, Key West or the world at
large
Kew West is admittedly little she'll
shocked after the string of disasters that
have knocked one industry after another
out from under its population. The city
might be forgiven for resting on its oars
awhile and letting Senator Taft figure out
for himself what comes next. If he gets the
answers, he might be persuaded to spend
little time on Key West and tell us.
No matter where this city is tossed,
however. or what is tossed to the city, there
are few things that civic leaders ought to
bear in nlird as the foundations of basic
economy here.
In the first place, everyone agrees
that tourists have become the most stable
industry left in Key West. Everyone agrees
in principle, that is, and let it go at that.
Meanwhile, the Tourist Club, which was to
promote local recreation for winter visitors,
has died quietly through lack of interest.
American Legion efforts to get to-
gether some $4,000 for their annual state
convention are finding steady uphill going,
and collection of the total amount will re-
quire long struggle.
Perhaps it is possible to become pros
porous by selling your merchandise to any
one who happens to drop in 1t may be pos
sible to build up prosperity through tourists
without botherirg to advertise or entertain
them after they arrive.
If it is, Key West has found something
new. If it isn't, Key West had better start
on Senator Taft's questions.

INADEQUATE NOTICE TO TAXPAYERS
Homestead eader-Enterprise)

A resolution to apply to the l94l Florida legis-
lature for change in Homestead's city charter to
permit adjustment of parcel-by-parcel advertis
ing of tax-delnquent property and substitution
therefor of general notice was adopted by the city
council Monday night after being presented by Ira
c. Haycock Miami lawyer who serves Homestead
as city attorney.
Mr.. Haycock said such a change in the method
of advertising delinquent taxes would effect great
saving to taxpayers of Homestead
The present method lists each parcel by legal
description and the owners name, and gives for
eetful property owners specific notice that their
taxes have not been paid and that their property
is in danger of being sold if taxes are not paid by
specific date The cost thirty cents for each piece
of property described--is assessed against the
property-and is cheap insurance against sale OF
a property for taxes through an oversight OF the
owner
Opponents Of the proposed change point out
that under the present method of listing the dein-
ouent properties individually, the taxpayer can not
confuse his payment of last years city taxes with
this years nor does he allow his property to SO to
sale from confusing his payment Of county 'axes
with payment of city taxes.
The new method. sprung in the council just IN
time for introduction in the fortheoEing session OF
the legislature failed Of passage once before. We
believe such general advertising # the delinquent
lax lst constitutes inadequate notice to taxpayers
ard provides potential means by which tax sales
sharks may fatten an the unwary property
owners

AID TO BRITAIN

The extent of American assistance to
the British nation can be appraised by
study of the figures recently released giving
the amount of arms, munitions and imple-
ments of war which have been licensed"
for export.
In December, for example, the British
received licenses covering $97 03,296
worth of war material. For the entire year
1910 the British were licensed to ship only
1915, 470,24 worth of war supplies.
The reader should understand that
the above figures represent licenses, not eX-
ports from this country. Actual shipments
of war supplies to the British in December
were only valued at S23,290,47O and for
the full year 1910, S176,391,212.

side, and making flowing river

it slides into deep water. Well,
