OUR RESOLUTION for 1943

AS we begin 1913, it is in order for the
people of Monroe County, along with all
other loyal Americans, to make one reso-
luton and to mean what they resolve.
With the nation year along the road
of war, with all of us more conscious than
ever of the sacrifices ahead and more deter
mined than ever that human beings (mean
ing us) shall live, love, laugh and learn in
peace, it is high time to appreciate the stern
duty before us.
Practically every American, along
with President Roosevelt, "hates war" No
Nazi or Jap missionaries are needed to
teach us the blessings of peace. For many
months, as war engulfed Europe, we-hoped
and prayed to avoid the shambles of battle,
finding it hard to believe that other govern
ments and other peoples intended to wage
war agailstus
The illusion toppled at Pearl Harbor
and was buried when Germany and Italy
declared war on u.s. Our own Congressional
declarations were merely the legislative &C
acknowledgements that we had been attack
ed. Axis killers, already on the loose, en-
larged their field, expecting to secure more
and better game.
We would like to write a New Years
editorial advising all persons, old and
young, to devote 1943 to their OWE develop
ment and culture and to their physical, NEIL
tai and spiritual well-being.
Unfortunately, we must advise them 10
prepare to fight for their lives and civiliza-
ton, to courageuosly uphold their faith in
man and God and to make any sacrifice and
endure every hardship that becomes neces-
sary to preserve the freedoms, liberties and
honors of mankind
So, here is our resolution for civilians
at home and our fighting men everywhere.
ITO so wage war as to win peace for
ever for all peoples of goodwill and to or
ganize just men to forever protect the world
from aggressors, who seek 70 rob, STAY and
enslave their fellow-men."
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1943-01-01
WE MUST CLEAN UP THE TOWN

It goes somewhat against the grain for
Key Westers, used to dealing with them
selves to take the advice of the sheriff and
the police department to guard their val
uables carefully. 1t is new experience Tor
Key Westers to have their wallets Switched
from their pockets or, in the case of women,
their handbags snatched from them or RI
fled if they are placed on counter temper
arily.
But Key Westers should bear in mind:
thousands of strangers are in our midst, anu
a very small percentage of them-probably
Jess than one per cent are crlmlnally m
clined and in these lush times, try 20 live oy
their wits while we ard the vast bulk of
strangers in Key West are striving to pro-
mote our country's war effort.
The dishonest strangers are not dis
criminative about the persons on whom
they prey 1t is of no consequence to the
rascals whether the money they steal be-
longs to other strangers or Key Westers.
Before this country entered the Iwar
there were homes in Key West that had not
been locked up at night for many years: We
know of some where doors had been left I'M
locked for half century.
While we do our duty by keeping our
homes locked and exercising vigilance in
protecting our purses and other valuables,
we should insist that the police and sheriff
forces in Key West at least curb The crime
wave that has been gathering volume in our
community for the last three months. Ar
resting officers should have their ranks in
creased and should go out determined to
rid the city Of the rascals who have drifted
in here from all over the country.
But if the arresting officers do rot sue
coed in squelching the crime, then the peo-
pie of Key West as whole must take &C
ton themselves. The crime must not con-
tinue unchecked. Either we must appeal
to the Governor for help or organize vigi-
lance committees, or Vigilantes, as they
were called in the West, to stamp out The
crime.
Key West, noted for that type of south
ern hospitality that characterized pre-Civil
War days, must not let her rame be be-
Smirched by giving free rein 70 imported
rascals, white Or BLACK, to fatten here on
thevery.
We must clean up the town.

TOO LATE TO
CLASSIFY

AS we approach another year.
and one that promises TO be the
most crucial in the nations his
tory, ii might be well for all Of Us
! 10 stop and count our change.
A year ago We had just been
plunged into a war. Most Of Us.
particularly those old enough TO
remember other wars. failed TO
grasp that this time il was diff
ferent.
Most of US expected to go
about our business as we had dur
ing other conflicts, trusting to our
armed forces to take care of the
problem. Of course we expected
to buy some bonds, and maybe
get job in a defense plant, pro-
Vided it paid US more than wed
been making; we would try and
remember TO remove our hat when
the flag passed by and would al
ways stand when the Star
Span3led Banner was played.
We had been told that this was
total war-a peoples war
but we just didn't seem to under
stand. Fortunately, our leaders
realized what We did not and had
made some progress in the direc-
ton CT defense before the first
blow fell.
Since that time, despite con-
fusion, pickering, red tape,
bureaucracy and public indif-
ference or protest, these leaders
set about the grim task at hand.
They made mistakes. SelfishnesS.
greed, politics and personal ambi
ton raised their ugly heads and
in too many instances served to
retard our effort.
But from practically standing
start we have accomplished In
one year more than our enemies
were able to achieve in eight Our
able industrial leaders with but
few exceptions turned their atten-
ton to winning the war: labor,
that part which works with its
hands on the assembly line, gave
an account of itself, to which
Democracy the world over can
point with pride.
We set goals that even we did
not believe we could achieve,
only to better them and set con-
struction records that were mi
raculous. Ships that in the last

DIR. HAAKE OPENS: In a world
of economic and political disrup-
tons and disorders, many Church
leaders have felt it their response
bility to sponsor actual and specific
political economic reforms. These
leaders, perhaps unwittingly, have
added to the confusion and misun-
Outstanding Of what is really wrong
and what is to be done about it. They
condemn justly the manifestations of
error, but fail in tracing the true
cause or in offering a fit remedy.
Changes in political and economic
structure are not the remedy for our
ills. What we need is not more laws
but better and ADLER people. We do
not help the poor by destroying the
rich. We do not provide economic
Improvement and progress for the
unfit by penalizing the fit.
AS history demonstrates, the REM
edy lies in raising the intelligence,
fitness and moral responsibility of
mankind. The Church can best serve
society by encouraging and aiding
men to understand, accept and apply
high standards of personal conduct
and responsibility to their fellow
men.
It is significant that Jesus advo-
Gated no economic or political re-
forms,-did not deal with the eco
nomic problems into which modern
preachers hurl themselves. Instead
He taught men "the Kingdom Of
Heaven is within you" and encour-
aged the betterment of individual
men through their own efforts.
MIR. HIGH CHALLENGES: That

HOMAGE is PAID TO
YOUNG WAR WORKER

FIT. LAUDERDALE, Jan. i
FNS)--This east coast resort
city pays homage this week to
l5-year-old Lois Bryan, who won
statewide honors to be chosen
Florida's Champion All Gamer.
This enterprising lass put up
over 700 pints of fruit, vege-
tables, jams and jellies, largely
from her own gardens. She won
S12 in cash prizes and sold S27.70
worth of canned products, and
was awarded a 500 US. War
Bond by the Kerr Atlas Glass
Company, giving her a cash re-
turn of S137.70 for her effort.
But Lois takes her greatest
pride in the fact tina she is doing
her bit to win the war.

MIR. HIGH OPENS: King Ahab
called Elijah "troubler Of Israel"
Christians call him prophet Ahab
wanted the Ahab status-quo; Elijah
wanted Righteousness.
Prophets are neither economists
nor business men. They don't need
to be. What they need to be is sensi-
tive and courageous enough to see
and preach the iniquity of enforced
inequality; the evil of great wealth
in the midst of great poverty; the
greed of those who possess when
confronted with the wretchednesS
and aspirations of those who are
dispossesSed.
When, thus, a preacher identifies
himself with life on the other side
of the tracks he attains, by Chris
tian standards, some prophetic sta
ture. And the Ahabs, forthwith, set
upon him.
Jesus declared that "the Kingdom
of God is within you" But He wasn't
crucified for that. He was crucified
because, having rested His Kingdom
on mans conscience He then went
on to lay upon that conscience such
specific, down-to-earth responsible
tiles that the Ahab set-up was en-
dangered and the Ahabs violently
alarmed.
Christianity has been vital-and is
today-Whenever its message has
been conferred, not on the bolstering
of things-as-they-are, but on an ac-
tivity-producing vision of things-as-
ey-ought-to-be.
DIR. HAAKE CHALLENGES: /
agree that church leaders need not
pose as industrial experts. Nor do
they qualify. That is why wish they
would all stick to their real jobs, as
most of them do.
Our inequalities" are not forced"
on us; but would Mr.. High force"
equality regardless of capacities?
Too great wealth may be evil, but
poverty is not necessarily holy.
Greed is a common human trait. l
would attack greed wherever it is,
not encourage it among the unsuc-
ceSsful by denouncing success. The
modern Ahab has been supplanted
by the political witch of Endor.
MIR. HIGH REPLIES: DR.. Haake,
at this late date, evidently clings to
the belief that inequality" is chiefly
due to incapacity and only rarely a
result of injustice. That has been the
factually unsubstantiated argument
of the defenders of the status-quo
ever since the Pharaohs.
1t is not the denouncing of sue
cess that is at issue, but its defini-
ton. Happily. we are removing the
succesS-idea from its monetary
wrapper. Happily. also, we have be-
gun to demand from the success
full" not only personal but a social
accounting.
So long as the Church is an earth
ly agency for good it will have a re-
sponsibility for furthering both of
those promising DEVELOPMENTS.
