YOU WIN, SENATOR

State Senator David Ward mildly re-
bukcd in The Citizen last November when
he announced plans Cor immediate highway
construction which never were carried out,
appears to have the last word on the sub
jcct.
In Letter to The Citizen, Senator
Ward says:
81 am pleased to note the announce
mcnt in your Key West Citizen of March 10,
19t1 regarding the asking of bids for
Shortening the highway and the elimna-
ton Of the narrow wooden bridges, this
work &c be from the Overseas Highway toll
district to Key West.
Il am sure that you see this is merely
the putting into actual operations of the
good news which took to the citizens of
Key West and Monroe county in the early
part of November.
Senator Ward, of course, is right.
An editorial to which the senator OBJ
jected at that time was written after he had
announced that road department members
at a meeting in Fort Myers had decided to
begin work on the project at once. Moth
ing happened for some time and The Citi-
zen's efforts to verify the story finally
brought a wire from Chairman J. w. Per-
kins, in which he said the department had
apBToved survey, but no date for the be-
ginning Of construction had been set.
Describing the status of the project as
it was explained by Perkins The Citizen
nditOri a lu told Senator Ward
ut is serious matter to go off half
cocked' about stories that concern our city
so vitality. 1t is to be hoped that the giver
Of the information, so properly credited to
him in the news story, will be more care
full of details of his subject before passing
them on to his public"
Since the senator's prediction seems
about to come true, The Citizen is sorry.
And if he had to get road to win the argu
ment, we're glad he won it.

AMERICAS HUGE TASK

In undertaking to supply implements
for war for Britain and other countries in
pursuance of the new lend-lease law, the
United States assumes a task of staggering
magnitude. Yet it is one that was in
e3capable, and every citizen should willing
" assume his share Of the burden.
While there are honest differences of
opinion as to just how we should proceed,
few now believe that policy of isolation
could have been maintained without great
err danger to America than lies in the
course we have decided to take. No pos
sible course could guarantee our continued
independence if Britain should fall.
AS to whether we shall eventually be
forced to become actively engaged in the
war. only the future can tell. If aid short
of war proves insufficient to save Britain,
our armed forces will undoubtedly have to
be used. We are definitely committed to
doing everything we can to prevent an Axis
victory, and there can be no turning back
now.
In this critical time there is need for
greater unity of effort among our own peo-
pie Internal strife has caused the loss of
much precious time already, and we can
not afford to lose more If we can give
ADEQUATE aid to Britain. our own CHARGES of
involvement in actual warfare will be cor
respordingly diminished. Every American
should realize that fact and act accord
ingly.

The panther displayed no inclina-
ton TO regard him as a meal, however.
During the days that followed, when
ever she got hungry, she would disap-
pear on a hunting expedition. only to
return with bloodstained muzzle and
claws which she then carefully cleaned.
On one or two occasions when the
soldier tried to escape in her absence,
she reappeared as quickly as she had
vanished. giving out a saW-like cry
which was more terrible than her
leaping gait. and making it quite
plain that having adopted him, 1t was
her intention that he remain adopted.
She would play with him as if he
were one of her own cubs and when
romping would carefully sheath her
murdcrous claws.
Nevertheless. the Provencal was
always on guard and hopeful that he
might have an opportunity to escape,
and the climax TO his strange adven-
ture came one day when the panther
was playfully wrestling with him. Bal

Curiously enough, the panther showed no i'll will
