Not only in the race for more

are far ahead of the field.

EIGHT POINTS. AND OTHERS

There are Americans so busy talking
about Communism" subject of which
they know little or nothing. that they over
look the recent action of the Soviet govern
ment in adhering to the eight-point dec
laration of principles recently enuneiated
by the President and Winston Churchill
Meeting in London the representatives
of ten allied nations endorsed the aims OF
the Atlantic charter although several Of
them. notably Poland. CzechoslOvakia and
Free France, asked for security" suggest
ing that there must be some safeguard
against the resurrection of German
militarism.
It would be natural to assume that,
after the end Of the present war, the yictors
viii take all necessary steps to clineh their
success. The defeat Of Germany viii un-
doubleday be followed by stern measures,
designed to prevent the rise OF another
Hitler.
Meanwhile. the people OF this country
should be prepared TO support whatever
measures become necessary to force the
Germans to disgorge the spoils that they
have acquired from the peoples of other
nations by force of arms This refers not
only to territory but also to plants, facilities
and supplies.

SKINNY ON YOUR OWN SIDE

There Is a growing resentment in Key
West against the Miami Herald's some
times dictatorial. sometimes patronizing
attitude toward this city
We believe that this resentment is
justified
If Miami is in need of reform. that IS
Miani's business. Key West and its news
paper, The Citizen, would never think of
imposing its opinion on neighboring city
or county
The inalienable right Of self-govern-
ment is the heritage of every United States
city. Its the American way-a way more
precious today than ever. in world where
men seek TO impose their will on smaller,
weaker nations.
This isn't the first time nor the only
instance that Key West has had cause to
complain about the treatment accorded it
by the Miami Herald.
The Sunday edition carried a story
which seemed to pretend to be shocked at
the manner in which justice was being dis
pensed in Monroe county's criminal court.
The story recounted the trial of
white man and two colored accompliees ac-
cused of alleged robbery. The jury found
the white man not guilty, whereupon Judge
William " Albury. deferred sentence on
the two negroes who had already served
considerable time in jail awaiting trial
The Herald's story said in effect, that
a shocked courtroom witnessed the spec
tacle Of two self-eonfessed negro thieves
being set free. The report gave the impress
sion that such things could happen only in
Key West, but never in any other place,
like Miami, for instance
The courtroom was not shocked. The
judges adjudication was accepted with
favor by Key Westers. who believe in JUS
tiee for all men, regardless of their color or
creed
As laymen, unaeQuainted with the in
tricacies of jurisprudence, they understood
only that If the principal in a case IS in
nocent, then his aceompliees are also In
nocent.
Key West Is open to criticism when It
Is constructive Il knows it Is not without
fault, but it win resent ridieuie and guard
itself against those who seek to impose their
foreign will
The old cry 'Repei the boarders'' still
rings strong and true in Key West.
