HOW MANY MEN?

Key Westers, possibly within the next
few weeks, will be asked to cooperate in a
housing census which will give the army
and navy their first detailed information
on just how many men could be quartered
in this city without the addition of more
buildings
The census, PROBABLY to be carried out
by Boy Scouts, will give the armed services
complete picture of Key West housing
facilities-how many rooms, how much
floor space, sanitary facilities, telephones,
condition of the buildings.
When it is over, the committee hadling
the job and the armed forces will know, not
only how many men could be quartered
here by filling the vacant rooms and using
existing beds, but how many could be shelf
cred in Key West on the flat basis of 80
square feet of floor space to a man.
Thus an average living room of ID x
~, or slightly smaller would be consider
ed large enough for two men, whose indi-
vidual space would be figured on the basis
of 10'x g.
Cards detailing that and more informa-
ton will be given the Boy Scouts, or Who
ever eventually is called upon to do the leg
work of the actual survey
BY door-to-door check, with each man
probably assigned to some small area, the
committee within few days can compile
what is likely to be the first complete pic
ture ever put together of the condition of
housing facilities in this city.
Details of the plan still are being work
ed out by 15-man committee which re-
presents city, county, army, navy ard hous-
ing authorities, as we'll as labor and other
groups.
It's all part of the preparation required
for defense, and Key Westers will make the
survey more complete by cooperating to the
best of their abilities. The census is job
that has to be done.

MAKING A CHILD EAT

Parents who coax and eoddle and
threaten when child refuses to eat are on
the wrong track, according to DR.. Frank
Howard Richardson, noted child special
list. They are merely causing the child to be-
come neurotic and self-centered by paying
too much attention to his whims.
Instead of humoring the child by urg-
ing or bribing him to eat, he should be made
to sit down at the table five times day, for
80 minutes at the three regular meals and
for 20 minutes at mid-morning and mid
afternoon lunches.
Suitable foods are to be placed before
him each time, but no effort whatever is TO
be made to induce him to eat He may eat or
he may not as he chooses. But at the end OF
the time set he should be made to leave the
table whether he has eaten or not.
Or. Richardson declares that there is
no danger that child viii starve himself
under such circumstances. but that within
two or three days the cure" will be under
way. In conclusion. the doctor says:
The relief afforded sorely tired
parents by this course of action Is so
genuine that parents usually wonder why
they waited so long before adopting it.

CARE OF THE EYES

Many persons become blind, or go
through life with impaired vision because
of neglect of the most ordinary precautions,
according to leading oculist, who gives
some good advice in recent article.
He declared that the putting of drop
or two of silver solution in the eyes of an in
FAINT at birth is most important matter, as
five or six different kinds of germs which
may cause partial or complete blindness
are liable to gain access to the infants eyes
at that time.
tits also important to keep sharp or
pointed instruments, such as scissors, PEN
ellis and dangerously sharpened toys away
body which happens to get into the eyes
should be given immediate attention. No
inflammation of the eyes, however slight,
should ever be neglected.
With respect to cross-eyes, the expert
advises that steps be taken to correct this
condition very early, and he declares that
child no more than year old may be
taught to wear glasses for Strengthening
the squint, which will in most cases effect a
permanent correction. He warns against
the use of ten-cent store glasses or any glas-
ses not prescribed after expert examination
of the eyes.
Considering what a handicap poor
eyesight places upon the individual, it is
really strange that the simple precautions
recommended by health authorities are so
frequently neglected.

glect tea which to us is the most
important drink of all"
During the jamboree the boys
were served ''hot dogs" and ham
burgers" They were novelties and
the lads admitted that they had
never encountered them before.
One boy. lifting the top from
bun, was surprised to find no ham.
He naturally assumed that ham
burger" would contain ham and
he termed it very much like our
Salisbury steak" He was Mortified
to see me smear great gobs of
mustard on my sandwich and was
certain I would burn myself to
death, for British mustard is
! plenty hot and is used sparingly.
Driving some of the boys around
town, / happened to stop at gas
station and ordered ten gallons of
gas. The lad sitting at my side
sasped in amazement: Imagine
being able to drive and get ten
gallons" he said. turning to the
other Britishers, that's more
than we are allowed to use a
month at home."
l was particularly impressed
with the respectful courtesy, good
manners and good breeding
evidenced by these boys. There
wasn't a roughneck in the lot, not
a smartaleck. They were real
gentlemen, although as group
they represented cross section
of English life Some came from
we1l-to-do families, others from
the middle class, and few were
of poor parentage, but all of them
were credit to their country
from every standpoint.
I heard them stand as group
and sing ''There'll Always Be an
England, and their hearts as well
as their lungs went into that song.
1t was one Of the most inspiring
sights I've ever witnessed, and
when they joined our group in
singing God Bless America they
won our hearts completely :.
Florida has been the training
grounds for many a winning team
and I'm confident the Raj will
prove to be another. and you can
tell that 10 Mr.. Lindbergh.

TOO LATE TO
CLASSIFY

Last weekend it was my privil-
ege to attend a jamboree given by
the Lakeland Junior Chamber OF
Commerce for the British Flying
Corps sent from England TO train
here. | think that coming in per-
sonal contact with these young
Britishers made greater impress
sion on me than all | have read or
heard of the war.
Cold type and unknown radio
voices lack that certain something
that attends a personal interview
with those who lived through ii
over there" and in there own
words give you an account of their
I reactions and experiences.
Having met and talked with
these young men, it is easier to
understand how Britain has been
able to carry on as she has, and
they instiIl courage and confidence
for the future in the hearts of
those they contact.
Young men. for the most part
from IL to %, found them keen,
alert, intelligent and confident.
Practically all of them have been
under fire as civilians. They have
seen first-hand the death and des-
truction of aerial bombing raids.
1t has not frightened or discourag-
ed them. They are here to learn to
fly and their one ambition is to
have a go at returning the COM
pliment" later on when they've
earned their wings and are given
an opportunity to fly over Ger
manv.
I was interested in getting their
impressions of America. None
with whom I talked had ever been
to this country before, but they
knew ii and practically all told me
it was very similar to the impress
sions they had already formed
from what they had read and prin-
cipally from what they had seen
in the movies. American movies
are very popular in Britain and
they have done much to acquaint
the Britisher with American Gus
toms and American geography
They like America and Ameri-
cans. All said that they found
everyone sympathetic and the
treatment they have received here
had been wonderful Things that
impressed them most were con-
trasts To conditions here and at
home. They were amazed 10 see
citrus fruit in such quantities and
one chap pointed out that a single
orange in England would cost T5c
if you could get il at all. The
abundance of sweets-sugar, ice
cream and candy-intrigued them.
On their arrival they were so hun
cry for sweets. which are extreme
scarce in their home land. that
they would dip their spoons into
the sugar and eat il with genuine
relish. Sweet shops and stands m
the vicinity Of their training head
quarters were quickly depleted Of
their stocks of candy They just
couldn't seem to get enough
sweets.
One lad said You drink . great

SAN FRANCISCO, April "a
Two men who once held trusted
positions in the Communist Party
testified that they had admitted
Harry Bridges to secret Com
munist meetings in San Francisco
and New York after high officials
OF the Red party had assured them
Bridges was fellow-comrade.
Their testimony came as the
government neared the close of its
case against the Australian-born
longshore leader, whom it seeks
TO deport on the charge that he is
or was a member of the Com
munist Party.
