KEY WEST AIR STOP

National Airlines' application for au-
thority to provide air transportation faclli-
ties to Key West probably will recall to
most local people the fact that similar
proposal was talked year ago withut any
thing happening.
The Citizens Washington correspond
ent undoubtedly is right in commenting that
both Key West and National will have to
fight if anything is to happen on the ap-
plication before Civil Aeronautics Author
ity this time.
The fact remains, however, that estab-
lshmcnt of an air connection between Key
West and the mainland is coming sometime.
and it would be boon to the city if it should
come before next winter
In spite of constant efforts to develop
a winter trade that will stay here through
the season land an increasing number OF
people are staying here all winter), Key
West depends largely on the people who
rush south for short vacation and are IN a
hurry. Many of them come here or go to
Havana on two weeks vacations from the
north
With so little time to spend and de-
string to use as much of it as possible in the
sun, hundreds of prospective visitors each
wear write the chamber of commerce for
information about airline connections. Most
of them are surprised TO learn that the only
means of transportation for the person who
leaves his car in the north, is to make the
trip by bus or take the even longer boat
journey.
An airline connection which would
permit visitors to hop to Key West from
Miami in an hour, or to stop off here for
visit on flights between Miami and Havana
would bring great deal of extra business
to Key West, as we'll as providing better
service and more enjoyment for the visitors
on whom the prosperity of the state de-
ponds.

APRIL 10, 1940-4l

April 10, 1941, marks a year since
Scandinavia was invaded. The first Nazi
violation of Scandinavian territory occur
red in Denmark, the smallest of the Scandl-
navian countries The invasion of Norway
followed Immediately thereafter, while
Sweden still has the great good fortune to
remain at peace.
It is we'll for Americans to pause on
this 10th day of April to reappraise what
this invasion means to them. What did
Norway and Denmark stand for; what did
they represent? All of Scandinavia may
be considered unit of democracy. Poll
tically. the Scandinavian states were demo-
eracies; socially, they offered equal oppor-
tunities to all; economically, they had
achieved balance both in relation to their
internal and external affairs; they had de-
veloped both their spiritual and their ma
terial resources.
Now, after eleven months under the
new order of the Nazi invader, unbalance
has replaced balance; tyranny has replaced
freedom; economic invasion has followed
military invasion; life, liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness have been stifled.
1t is we'll that Americans show concern
with what has happened in Scandinavia
where already Denmark and Norway have
lost their freedom, democracy and right to
self-determination. 1t is important that
Americans express their sympathy on this
day and lend their moral support to the
valiant people who are in the hands of the
conquerer, hoping to regain their freedom
and right to self-determination.

HOW?

The statement mas been made that
one-fourth of our population is not eating
the proper diet which makes people strong
and healthy.
There may be some excuse for this con-
dition among industrial workers. many of
whom have been without employment for
months. There is little excuse for such
condition among agricultural people. Those
who live on our farms should at least, take
advantage of their opportunity and provide
proper diet for their families.
II is little short of amazing to drive
through so-called prosperous agricultural
areas and note the absence of orchards.
pastures. gardens, poultry, hogs and cows.
How do people who reside on such places
get the idea that they are farmers?

Honeysuckle vines grew over

near one end of the Inn had
loosened a number of shingles

swept back and forth by the
winds of many a winter.
Weeds and underbrush and
more vines had long since claimed
the grounds for their own. The
walks which had once been so
neatly la:d out were now almost
lost to view. The flower beds, tri-
angles and squares and circles,
had completely disappeared; there
was scarcely sign of their out
