Guard cutter at the entrance to
the harbor to receive his instruc-

he will then be informed, and he
must keep it at masthead the en-

Another arrangement has been
simplified. Boats that are used
for fishing in inland waters, that
is, waters enclosed or partly en-
closed by the keys, will not have
to stop at the Bar Buoy, on the
south side of the island. or at a
Coast Guard boat, seven miles out

APPEALS RECEIVED
FOR TYPEWRITERS
MACHINES TO BE FORWARD.
ED TO GOVERNMENT
FOR IT'S USE

TALLAHASSEE, May 20. (FNS)
Armed with urgent appeals from
the Army and Navy for typewrit-
ers, State Defense Council Of
ficials have been checking writ
ing machines around the capitol
and hope to secure at least IS per
cent of them for immediate trans
fer to military use.
Council Secretary George Burr
points out that every bomber,
every destroyer. every tank and
countless unit headquarters re-
quire typewriters to speed the
transmittal of vital orders and
messages, and not one single ma
chine will be used for any purpose
than actual military use.
Machines desired must be no
older than Jan. 1895, and bust
ness and industry are asked to
turn over every machine they can
as direct contribution to the war
effort. Schools will cooperate by
allotting rs per cent or more of
their machines, while many state
departments and bureaus have al
ready contributed more than their
quotas.
Florida is askea to supply not
less than $3.50 machines and Burr
says if all business organizations
will cooperate, this quota can be
met without difficulty or delay.
The government will pay ceiling
prices for such machines and as
the need is urgent, everyone is
asked to cooperate in this effort.
Military officials point out that
often typewriter is as important
as a gun in meeting an emergency,
and ask full public support in
this program. Local Defense Coun-
ellis and American Legion posts
are cooperating in the drive to Sc
cure machines aid those in pos
sition to help should contact these
agencies.

The PreSl- CohstAhtihe Dto"h'
dents statement raised heavy
burden from the minds Of mill
tary and political men in this
country. They had feared that
the Russians would be adamant
in their demands for certain ter
ritorial concessions which this
government could not approve
without risking its chief inter-
national baggage-its decision to
abide by pledges given to other
members of the United Nations
before Russia became partner
in the fight against the Ger
mans.
Strong fears had been ex-
pressed in Washington in the
last 10 days that if we were
placed with our backs against
the wall and certain new COM
mitments We're asked of us, the
very foundations of the United
Nations might be shaken.
Fears Are Dispelled.
Mr.. RooSevelt's statement dis
PEELED all these fears. Thanks to
the fair agreements reached at
Moscow, the United Nations are
strong entity which will con-
tinue the fight against totalita-
rianism to the bitter end.
For the time being and until
the contents Of the documents to
be signed are known we must
take it for granted that we have
not receded from the position we
originally adopted that the small
nations In our group must receive
as much consideration regarding
their right to a sovereign and in
dependent life as the big powers.
Judging by the results an
nounced by the President, Secre-
tary Hull, our spokesman at the

the Senate in its Sunday clothes; it
will not tell us what the Senate
thinks, but only what the Senate
wants the world to think it thinks,
or what the Senate thinks it ought
to think.
This is the Senate on parade, self
consciously answering the questions
of the man from the Gallup Poll
office.
In adopting the Connally resolu-
ton for world collaboration, as it
surely will, the Senate will have
slicked down its hair and adjusted
its necktie for an impressive group
portrait. But what of the next
morning?
Will the Senate 60 on with its
proposed investigation" of lease
lend, a fishing expedition directed
against our Allies? And then, per-
haps for months, will the same
countries which are referred to as
comrades in arms" in the Connally
resolution, be paraded before us as
spongers and beggars. or, worse,
trimmers and sharpers?
Sincerity Admitted.
Which will more clearly reveal
the sense of the Senate" it's pas
sage Of Sunday resolution in be-
half of world collaboration, or its
rolllcking enjoyment Of a chance
to fry the hides of some of our Al
lies, on the basis of a handful of
ambiguous lease-lend anecdotes
brought back by two or three of its
touring members?
l believe there is a sincere wish
on the part Of a majority Of the
Senator's for a Collaborative world,
but I believe, too that at present the
wish exists on a rather low, unreal
