At The Churches

At six o'clock each evening one
of the church bells in our city
rings as a call to prayer for a just
and lasting peace and asking
Gods blessing and protection for
the men and women in the service
Of our country who are fighting
under the banner, "In God We
Trust"
We plead not only with the
parents and relatives, but also
with the public, to pray incessant-
~ for our soldiers so that through
the undoubted efficacy of prayer
the number Of casualties still to
come might, BY the mercy of God,
be reduced to the lowest possible
figure.
The First English Lutheran
Church is ringing its bell this
week, and next week the Nazarene
Church will ring its bell.

THE NEW CHARTER

Judging from what Representative
posed city charter before he left for ITALIA
hassee, Key West will get new form of
government, a government that has been
tried throughout the country and has been
found to be a success. This city will make
the forty-third to operate in Florida under
some form managerial government.
The Citizen makes that statement,
though it is aware that every senator and
representative in the legislature has re-
ceived' a resolution, passed by the city
council, protesting against the valuation
of the charter.
Almost since Florida has had legis-
lature, it has been rule among representa-
tives to support all local bills, and the char
ter comes under that head. Such a pro-
eedure is not far to seek. The representa-
ives are aware that if they vote for the
local bills of ''the other fellow, he, in turn,
will support their local bills. Once in
awhile such bills meet with a snag in the
senate but that is not likely to happen to
The commission-manage charter for Key
West
Assuming that the charter will be put
nto effect, it will afford the people of
Key West an opportunity to determine for
themselves if the. affairs of our city will be
conducted better than has been the case
ina good many years.
It is.not necessary at this late hour for
The Citizen to do any further rubbing
against he grain. 1t has pointed out to the
city councilmen repeatedly how they could
have conducted a more efficient govern
ment and how they could have saved tax
payers many thousands of dollars by abol-
ishing useless offices, but not single coun-
Gilman raised his voice to effect those
changes. The trouble is that the council
has no outstanding leader; each man waits
on the other to do something, that would
protect the taxpayers interest, and none
acts, and nothing is done

OBLIGATION TO THE PEOPLE

The principal that governs, or should
govern. the press is that the telling of news
i..a public trust. declares James B. Reston,
correspondent of The New York Times,
Who declares that a good reporter owes
rs first obligation, not to his paper or the
government. but to the people.
We hasten to add our approval to the
Tews OF Mr.. Reston, who goes on to point
e4t that the duty of reporter is to give
accurate, complete. impartial and timely
Information about what has happened or
i likely to happen.
The views of Mr.. Reston are support
al. in the main. by Frank S. Adams, also a
New York Times reporter, who defines re-
nprting a the application of curiosity, di-
FsGted by intelligence and disciplined by
Standards of accuracy and fairness, to the
cilrrent happenings of the world.
Mr. Adams warns that the most insid-
ioils temptation for a reporter is to allow
Himself to be converted into personal pub
= IT'S agent for some influential news source
With which he has frequent contacts. Point
i~g out that reporters are subjected to flat
f1ry and favors as we'll as threats and pres
Eres. Mr. Adams explains that the best
iffense Of reporter is reputation for
rtegrity."
We call attention to these views, ex-
pressed by men connected with what is
pFobably the greatest newspaper in the
6nlled States because in our humble way,
81 have attempted to follow the principles
eutlinel i'm connection with the publication
~ The Citizen
= Whether we have been fully success
~ or.not is a matter for the public to de-
Gle, but. regardless of this phase of the
tteF' we have tried to present the people
Il this area with a newspaper that merits
LII confidence and support. The re-
MonsS of the public, which we deeply APP
lsteciate. leads us to believe that we have
Acceeded at least in part.

APPEAL BY GERMANS

The War Department has made pub
lie the text of an appeal to the people of
Germany, signed voluntarily by 1891 of
the 3, f02 German prisoners of war; at a
camp in Massachusetts,
t The men who made the appeal We're
soldiers from the fighting fronts in Africa
Sicily, Italy and Normandy. They warn
their people not to fight for Hitler and his
guilty gang and that the Allied nations
scan well differentiate between the Nazis
and the German people"
Interesting is the question: WAS Ger
many ever attacked?' and the answering
explanation: Germany was not attacked
but Hitler attacked other nations, invaded
foreign soils. Now these nations call the
guilty to an account. If you continue to
fight you defend those guilty of this war
in Germany" ......
The appeal of the German prisoners
of war was broadcast into Germany but it
is not likely to have any effect. 1t reveals
however, a change of mind on the part of
the prisoners. Whether this is conversion
or merely recognition of disaster, we do
not know.

JAPANESE JOKE

American soldiers occupying Koruna
Island were surprised to find that MANY
Japanese civilians had killed themselves
rather than be captured. These people
were misled by japanese propagandists
who told them that they would be tortured
by the Americans.
While it is unfortunate to see inno-
cent people misled to become the victims
OF their own folly, there is little that the
United States can 10 about it, Gradually.
the news will undou' tedly seep through
the Far Eas- that the Japanese are liars
and that our soldiers do not mistreat ei-
villains. Until it does, the japanese Joke
IS on the civilians concerned.
