NO PLACE FOR LOAFERS

Judge Albury's ultimatum TO those 40
1ohcrers who gave up their jobs in the Navy
yard-vork, go to war, or go to jail-ls IN
keeping with sound democratic principles.
Were the country at peace, man
would be within his rights to declare, III
work if want to-, but things are altogether
different now-we are at war, and every
.blebodied man must do his part. If he re-
fuses to do it, then the right place for him
is the Jail.
II is we'll enough TO talk about curbmg
ones freedom but while we do that sort OF
talking we should bear in mind chat that
very freedom is threatened by powerful
outside sources and that all of us must act
in concert to beat back that threat and, fin
ally to eliminate it. Further, one who is
not willing work or fight for his freedom
is not worthy of it.
Judge Albury said he was unable TO
learn The motive that actuated the former
Navy yard laborers to resign their jobs.
They gave no reason for their action; they
merely walked out" so 20 speak. They
We're dissatisfied about something, made no
complaint about it, and quit cold.
Well, they can not be compelled 10
work in the Navy yard, but they most assur
edly twill not be permitted to loaf if they re-
main in Key West. They must work, or be
recassified for war service, or go TO jail.
Even odsters in Key West are working,
some ot them in the Navy yard The Citi-
zen heard of two few days ago who are
working side by side in the Navy yard,
helping in the country's war effort. That's
the spirit here, and it is swell that those la
borels who lett the Navy yard should.know
it.

HEALTH COMMANDMENTS

The following commandments for our
health, given by pastor of a metropolitan
church to his congregation, might prove in
teresting reading to some of us here in Key
West. Here they are:
81. Honor your parents by having
thorough physical examination every birth
day; for an ounce of prevention is worth a
Ipn of cure.
SO. Honor your friends by taking a
daily bath; for cleanliness is part of god
Illness.
50. Honor your family by having
your life insured for life insurance guaran-
tees the cooperation of the insurer in the
prolongation of the life of the insured.
Il. Honor your physician by avoid
ing patent medicines; for the most of these
noStruns are humbugs.
IS. Honor your stomach by having
your teeth carefully examined by dentist
at regular intervals; for bad teeth are an
abomination to the system.
IS. Honor your digestion by being
careful of your diet, for many a man digs
his grave with his teeth
81. Honor your lungs by breathing
fresh air; for ventilation is means of
grace.
''S. Honor your nerves by taking
plenty of rest in sleep, for they who work
all day and play all night promote the brew
ity of their lives by burning the candle at
both ends
80. Honor your country by obeying
the laws; for it is mark of good citizen
ship to obey law whether one likes it or
not.
40. Honor your God by chastity in
word, thought and deed; for the race that
wishes eternity must exalt maternity"

OUTSTANDING QUALITY

"Why doesn't The Citizen publish
more news about the fighting in Tunisia ?"
a Key Wester asked, and the reply was,
"Why don't other papers publish more
news about the same thing?"
The fact is, very little official news has
come f. en- North Africa since the first
stirring account about the invasion of that
territory. 1t turned out to be easy 20 cap
ture Morocco, Algeria and all of Tunisia ex-
cept the Tunis and Bizerte areas.
The Axis powers beat us, TO use the
veinacular, to those strategic positions.
How long Tunis and Bizerte were occupied
by Italians and Germans before the lnva-
SIGN of North Africa by the Allies is not
known, but it is known that the Axis forces
were there waiting to fight when the Allies
marched into Tunisia.
Allied headquarters and civilian lead
ers have warned the people of the Allied
Nations that the fighting is going TO be
savage in Bizerte and Tunis. No news may
mean good news or it may mean Stalemate
in the various clashes that have occurred.
However that may be, very little official
news is coming from Africa. There has been
great deal of conjecturing, always with
decisive battles to occur between the two
forces, but those battles have not yet taken
place.
All of which brings us to the point to
advice the reading public to be more pa
tient. You may be sure that General Eisen-
hover and his staff are not wasting a mo-
rent or overlooking an advantage to wage
ultimately ar offensive that will crush the
'ccT1ans and the Italians in Bizerte and
Turis. But the time for that battle has not
7ome yet. When it does come, the Allies
will strike and strike hard.
Meanwhile, we should curb our impa-
-ence. We felt the same way about the
lighting in the Solomons, but the govern.
ent relieved our tension when circumstan-
ces justified its doing so. The same ching
will happen in giving out news about the
fighting in North Africa Today there is
little or no news, but tomorrow we may be
thrilled by the intelligence of Allied sue
cess as we were in hearing about the ba.-
ties Of the Midway, the Coral Sea and the
Solomons.
Patience is an outstanding quality n
war as we'll as in peace, on the home front
as we'll as or the firing line.
