 How often do we hear that the lay of our soldiers is inadequate 'nd that their greatest handicap Is hck of funds.
 When these men were taken from heir positions of employment of |arious types, the method Of selec- lon. was fair and honest enough Is each man had equal chance of Icing drafted and also there has |een no complaint of unfair dis elimination from defernent. But hght there the fair play stops. Approximately i2 million men regis- bred for the draft and less than
 million were put in uniform at he dollar per day. These men train lard, have been forced to give up IA oe the comforts of home and hey are now occupied learning the usinesS of fighting and using wea- |ons of destruction in order to pro- bet their country.
 Is there any occupation more |oble than this, than to fight and 10 for ones country and those back |ome?
 Is the occupation of training to |ght ard using these weapons of estruction, even at the risk of their IveS less noble, less hazardous and ess important than the occupation f the other 10 million registered aen who are in factories, making hose weapons2
 The latter group did not have Q give up home life. They still njoy big pay; they are not regi- 1ented and restricted by army egulations, their lives are not in anger, so why in Gods name Is here such an enormous discrepancy a the pay of the soldier as com- ared with the factory worker2

CATCH THE PETTY THIEVES

William R. Porter's offer of S l25 in re-
wards for the arrest and conviction of a girl
or woman who stole three papayas from
his yard emphasizes a condition here that
should be- temedied. "a aAu. Aa4 II -.
~ Key. West residsa4ntss ibis X1iqgt:er hays

and law enfol cement officers seem to have
found 1t impossible to do anything about it.
Flowers, fruit, clothes-all insignificant,
but often treasured tnings-have been dis
appearing right and left.
Petty thieves are probably the most
annoying as well as the hardest to catch of
the parasites which faster themselves on a
community. The things they steal usually
have little or no intrinsic value, but to their
owners they are important for any one of
number of reasons.
In the case OF Mr. Porters papayas,
for instance, the highest possible price for
which they could be sold is not more than
so cents apiece. 70 him, they were i'm
portant because he had tended and watch
ed them grow and enjoyed shaving them

% Is Failure Of police to catch the thieves
cannot be laid altogether at aotheirS door,
Most Of the things stolen cam be snatehed
up and tucked gut Of sight in a moment and
if they are sold, they cannot be identified.
Failure of citizens to press charges
against petty thieves when they are caught
IS another reason for infrequent arrests.
Most people seem to feel that if their goods
are returned there is no point in pressing
charges which will send man to jail over
the matter of few cents.
The obvious fact that thieves who
find they need have no fear of arrest are
likely to continue stealing doesn't seem to
occur to the kind hearted victims.
Regardless of excuses on both sides,
however, it is time Key West citizens and
law enforcement officers show little CO.

NICARAGUA WOULD COOPERATE

President Anastasio Somoza, of Mic
aragua, establishes new high in coopera-
ton with the United States by inviting this
country to establish air and naval bases on
both coasts of Nicaragua, "as will best pro-
tect the interests of the two countries and
the Panama Canal"
On his forty-fourth birthday, the Presi-
dent of this Central American Republic de-
clared that 'the keynote of Nicaragua for
eign policy is about cooperation with the
United States .Nicaraguans are firmly
convinced that their interests are parallel
with those of the United States, while |, per-
sonally, look upon the United States as my
second country" f,c, n!. ,. .s,.
This is an interesting statement in view
of the fact that in 1912, the United States
sent Marines into NicafaguaT,;, following, a
revolt and only Withdraw theiegation guard
in 1925. Almostaimmediate4s sNicaragua
was plunged again into civil warfare but
this was ended when the United States, sent
Marines to the country again and super
vised the 1923 election.
1t is worth noting that the United
States. after landing armed forces in Mic
aragua. upon two occasions, withdrew its
Marines without seizing territory or at
tempting to make Nicaragua a colonial pos
session of this country.
