LETTERS

Some letters come from near at
hand
And some from distant places,
And some bring tears to weary
eyes SO
And some lend smiles to faces.
But whether they bear mirth or
woe
Or happiness or sorrow,
They form a slender bridge that
links
The past with tomorrow.
But t..ey are always welcome,
No matter what they contain.
We would surely miss them
We're they never to come again.

WHEN you PAY. SMILE!

If you wish to know how tax conscious
Key Westers have become, go up on the
second floor of the Federal Building and
take a look into the office of Howard vii
son, the Key West income-tax man.
With the deadline expiring next Mon
day, the rush is on, and. though Key West
is crowded with busy men, Mr.. Wilson
probably is the busiest. 863 ~
Though the amounts paid on last
years income have increased immensely
as compared with former years, yet the
sums paid now are merely a foretaste of
what is to come as the war goes on As Kip
ling said in his Absent Minded Beggar,' =
written 43 years or so ago, when the Boer
War was at its height, it is case of "pav,
pay, pay
The tax in Britain in those days was "a
bagatelle compared with what it is today.
incidentally, what We are paying now, and
what we likely will be paying beginning on
July i, is far lower than what the English
man is paying.
Meanwhile, the house ways and means
committee, after turning down the Carlton
version of the Ruml pay-as-you-earn plan,
is still undecided on what action to take to
boost the taxes to help Uncle Sam to take
caIeTof the vast expenditures for the war.
Robert L. Doughton, chairman of the COM
mittee. remarked at the conclusion of Mon
,daysslsession, Well sleep over it and pray
overiit"
As The Citizen has declared several
ho in of
taxes are really the fortunate ones in this
war. We have minor inconvenience with
which TO contend, while our men at the
front, in addition to shaking hands with
death, sometimes are glad to get bareback
and bully beef and glad, too, to have a
chance to sleep in trench, with muddy
water up to their chins.
So, to use version of The Virginian's
warning, When you pay, smilel

WHAT WE OWE OUR GOVERNMENT

Native-born Americans seldom stop
longs enough, inItheir daily routines, to APP
kpreciate the value of their American citi-
zenship.
eEhis is not true of many foreign-born
who come to the United States and, after
complying with certain formalities, become
citizens of this republic.
The freedoms that we enjoy contrast
brightly with the hardships of other coun-
tries. The advent of Nazi domination has
made the difference greater than ever
The other day a Judge, in Federal
court, in administering the oath to scores of
newly created Americans, declared that
those of us at home must do everything to
support the government willingly and
eagerly in order that enough guns, tanks,
engines and ships go to our men who need
them
He was stressing the obligations OF
citizenship in the midst of war which was
eminently proper At the same time there
are obligations of citizenship in years of
peace which many native born Americans
overlook
How many of us have known citizens
who sheer at democracy, deride all govern
mental efforts that they disapprove and set
themselves up as sole custodians of Amer
lean virtues as if this great nation belonged
only to them
Every citizen has a right to his opinions.
He should support the candidates of his
choice. After the decision has been made.
in democratic fashion, however, the good
citizen should support the choice of his
country whether it be in the election of an
official or the establishment of policy.

take action to presume his death

Mexico City
Booming Says
Julio Pima, Jr.

Mexico City is booming, according
to Julio Pima, Jr., manager of Banco
Ganadero y Agricola, who got back
a week ago yesterday from a two
weeks stay in the big Mexican
metropolis.
He declared that the race track
in Mexico City. which was finished
in February, seats $4,000 persons
and is larger than the one at Aqua
Caliente, and the winter and spring
season ended the middle of
June. Next season opens in Decem-
ber. Racing is held three times a
week. Most of the horses in the
events are from Arizona and Cali
fornia.
During his stay in Mexico City
Pima saw several former Nogalians
located there, including Pancho
Ahumada, who is promoting wrestl-
ing; Manuel F. Gonzalez, a retired
capitalist who has a string of race
horses; and Tom Boyd. who is SELL
ing farm machirs
Mexico City, Pima said, has about
9. .C00.Oo9 people and many 100000
homes are being constructed
throughout the city. '"The only
things short in Mexico City on ac-
count of the war are meat and
sugar. he declared.
