PROFESSIONAL GOl1erS Association Is
planning another series of events
for the pros, with emphasis on the
popular pro-amateur events.
Witty Cox, preXy of the Mid
Atlantic pros, announced today that
he is working on a schedule OF 10
amateur pro Journeys, in addition to
the usual Middle Atlantic P. G. A.
championship, the Washington
Open and a Baltimore Open tour
ney. The latter affair tenta atively
has been scheduled at the Country
Club of Maryland. 1t was played
last year at Elkridge.
Ten will be enough, and may be
too many" said Witty. But that
is what we are working on right
now. You know that rubber short
age isn't phony. While 1 think We
will have enough golf balls of some
kind to use this year, the tire situa-
ton isn't too good. So, insofar as
possible, we will schedule the tour
namentS at easy-to-reach spots
where the boys won't have to burn
up too much of that precious rub
ber."
Will Skip Virginia.
Cox indicated that no pro- anna
teur events will be staged by the
Mid-Atlantic pros in downstate
Virginia this year, although an event
may be held at one of the nearby
Virginia clubs. which means Wash
ington or Army Navy.
The pros will gather in April to
draw up their schedule, but Witty,
always a forehanded gent who be-
lieves in looking ahead and arrang-
ing matters well in advance of the
season, is going over the tourna-
ment schedule and sees a possibility
of 10 amateur-pro affairs. In addi-
tion to these events, the women are
planning to schedule at least two
woman pro affairs, so any one can
see with half an eye the boys won't
lack competition this year.

almost every amateur affair in
which he entered, and who hasn't
cooled off as a golfer with the pass

FAREWELL, A SAD FAREWELL"

Everything is swept aside to make
room for the war-effOrt, and thus our Mar
inc Hospital, which has been part OF the
life of Key West longer than any old-tlmer
can recall, will becime merely memory
after December 81.
Why wasn't something done to keep 1t
here? some hey Westers likely will cry out.
To them this assurance maybe given
everything possible was deneto try toikeep
the hospital in aaKeyWest; the the Chamber CHI of
Commerce had exerted itself to the utmost,
calling upon influential mer in, Washington
to help, but everything: was Of no avallla The
Navy Department had decided it wanted
the hospital and the ground on which it was
situated, and that decision was in the nature
of finality Opposition from and by Key
Westers was useless: as we'll try TO stop a
hurricane by whistling against it.
Entrusted to the Navy Department
for the promotion of the war effort" That
was the way the order read. The war eff
fort comes first, and the Marine Hospital
or anything else that interferes with it, or
is deemed to interfere with it, must go by
the board The Navy wants the hospital
building, and the Navy comes first.
There is possibility that some ar
angement will be made to obtain quarters
to be operated as hospital or a Limited
scale. That proposition has been brought
to the attention of the United States Public.
Health Service by the Key West ChaT1ber
of Commerce. Senator Claude Pepper, in
behalf of the chamber, has contacted Sur
geon General Rarran, and there is posi-
bility that some measure of relief be OBJ
tained.
Meanwhile, we may say to the Marine
Hospital, as we would to friend who has
served us we'll, Farewell sad farewell!'

WORTHY CITIZENS

't- -~ Now that the merits and dement's OF
Key West have been pretty Thoroughly
cussed and discussed and, so far as The Cit
izen is concerned, the debate declared CLOS
ed, we take occasion to pay our respects TO
a great and silent ma ority; the men ana
women who are in Key West because it is
their duty to be here.
With us, they share all the inconven-
fences and discomforts of life in a crowded
city where all other considerations are
brushed aside to make way for the forward
ing of every effort that may help to win che
war.
Coming, many of them from comfort
able homes in distant parts of the country,
they endure conditionsein trailers, make
shift houses and eramped quarters that we
who live in homes that we have occupied
for years, find it hard 20 visualize.
That they are well paid for their work
is true, but many if us would consider it
real sacrifice if we should accept their con-
ditiCns even with their pay. We accord
them our respect.
The war will be over some day and
when it is, we hope that many of these work
els will visit Key West and come to know
the pleasure Of life on this island when ac-
cess to its shores and waters is unrestricted
and the leisurely courtesy to the stranger
which is the leading characteristic of Key
West may again have opportunity for its
exercise
Ii this tribute is due the men, it is doub-
ly due to the women who keep their home
tires burning under strange and difficult
conditions.
Much has been made of the hardships
enGured by the Pilgrim Fathers One writ
er has stated that more credit was due the
Pilgrim Mothers of whom we hear so little,
since they not only endured all that the Fa-
theirs did; but, in addition endured the Pill
glim Fathers, also.
We propose toast to the ladies who,
in many cases are making it possible for the
men to carry on the business of winning the
war.

GOVERNMENTAL IDEALS

The younger people of Key West
should be taught the fundamental princi-
Piles of their government. No chance should
be taken that they grow up without learn
irg to appreciate the vital factors which
formed this union.
We are afraid that native Americans
take this for granted. Because they have
been satisfied with their government, and
because they understand the theories of
our governmental system, they take it for
granted that all youngsters will, somehow
inherit a reverence for, and an understand
ing of popular government as it was design
ed for this country.
The duties of man or a woman as d
voter should be carefully impressed upon
all. Too often there is tendency on the
part of all of us to vote carelessly, and yet
if our government is to succeed permanent
ly, it must rest fundamentally upon the
belief that the average voter will be moved
by sound motives in casting his ballot. Are
our young people being acquainted with
this?
More important is the ideal public of
fetal. Those who aspire to office. SHOULD
understand that they represent the people,
that theY deeds are supposed to be for'she
interest OF the people and that. their con
stantehdeavor will be to seryebebpbAeA-
terest as distinguished from their own, or a
group, interest. Very often, we have 10 adj
nit, the professional office-holder has not
reached this ideal, ard it is important that
the young people of today, who will fur
nish the officials of tomorrow, should at
least be encouraged in learning of the ideal.
There will come a time in the history
of this republic when public official who
betrays his trust will be denounced with
more vehemence than soldier who deserts
his comrades in battle. Not only must his
conduct be free from wrongful acts, but it
must be, like Caesar'snMifes aabQEe sus-
picion. The breath of rdaHthat turks
around man, ip publicl officsY pay oc-
casionally be Roa eau5e bdtt51f0fe often
it is entirely juA1Sedy eas.S
The officials hst ne hayssxilr meas
ure up to tn Z stsad.af.publs morality that is
demanded by the voters. They will never
be better and should be expelled when
worse The voter has not the right TO ex-
pect blameless public men when he is al
ways guilty of expecting a little extra con-
sideration for himself, or his interests. The
reform of public life which we hear abou.
is certain to begin with the righteous and
aroused wrath of the electorate.
