movies of the club members

those days were shown in close
up views and the pictures evoked
many EXPLANATIONS of astonish-
ment at the changes the. years

Above is a picture of that old side kick of ours, good old Hughie Chapel, chipper from the Victory Yard days in his Navy blues. There are still a few amongst us who were at that famous send-of party we gave Hugh before he went to Sampson for his "BOOT' training.
 To know Hugh was to love him, guess we all did. But we all re- member, too, that Brother Chap pei was a bit shy. Sure was. As matter of fact, we can see him fairly blushing when he sees this jargon about him in an otherwise sedate column.
 However, we won't have our lit- tie fun spoiled. We, Victory Yard guys, always believed that way-a bit of fun and it makes the day Cor the nighO seem brighter and we all work harder, and better. So here goes, Hughie! PLEASE DON'T BRING BACK AN ATOM IC BOMB LOOKING FOR US)
 Seems that at Sampson they put you into training groups of twen- ty-fve. We'll, the guys all liked Hughie at Sampson, too, and at the end of the training period WHOM DO YOU THINK RATED FIRST IN BOTH GRADE AND POPULARITY WITH HIS EEL LOWS-why that's easy-HUGHIE CHAPEL!
 Sorry, Hugh, for squealing but you see we're sort of proud that an all around good scout and a pal of ours has come through the Navy tests with flying colors and is go- ing out there now so that another tired and war-weary fellow can come home. Good luck, Hugh, and God bless you, and the hundreds of other E. B. boys who have gone forth to the call, some never to come back.

THE SAN FRANCISCO CONFERENCE

Twice In a generation we Americans
have had to fight a great war. Twice have
we been given the chance to join with other
nations to prevent it happening again.
The first try-the League of Nations
failed, largely because we did not join
it. Now the United Nations are meeting at
Gan Francisco in second attempt to set
up an International organization which
will keep the peace. They must not fail
or ii they, do, .ahothef world war7-to be
fought, WITH d9struetiyeI wea pqns, of the
Science of she future which. may we'll de
stEoy, civilization and us with it11zwill III
The p.s 4l& good at San Fran
Sise6. bfhe .hein provisions of the hewein-
tcfnational organization have been accept
led by most of the United Nations. 1t is UNI
thinkable that they will fail to agree on
the few relatively minor points still to be
settled. But let us not be misled into false
security by success at San Francisco. There
is still another hurdle The treaty must
then be approved by two-thirds vote of
he Senate of the United States.
Is there any doubt as to what the peo-
pie of this country want the Senate to do?
Do they want fancied, or even real, objec-
tons that the treaty is not perfect to deny
us this second chance to save our children
and grandchildren from what this genera
1tion has gone through? Do they want res
ervations, such as the proposal that the
United States delegate on the Security
Council must go back to Congress every
time he is called upon to vote-to take all
the substance out of the treaty? Let us not
forget that the League, of Nations was
beaten in 1919, not by an honest frontal at
tack but by indirectfon-oy Gripping res
ervations consciously intended to destroy it.
Is it not the overwhelming will of the
American people that we must put the
United States Fundamentally behind this
new ATTEMPT to enforce peace and decency
in the world?
The Senate must listen to the voice of
The American people. The treaty must be
ratified. There must be no cripping res
ervations.

LET'S PULL TOGETHER

Whenever there is difference of
opinion, one side should not assume that
the other has no grounds on which to base
its conclusions, and another thing of utmost
importance is that, when a matter is finally
decided, the side that loses should not be
angered.
Those views pertain aptly to the new
charter under which the city will operate,
and it, should be the aim of every Key
.Wester to assist in making the new form
of government a success. One thing is sure ::
every Key Wester who has the interests of
the city at heart, will do all he can to pro-
mote the welfare of. Key West under the
new form of government
Many of us are apt to overlook this
fact, and it applies to the national, state,
county and city governments: a govern
ment is not designed to provide job for
anybody in particular but to promote the
welfare of the people.
While discussions were in progress
about the new charter, some assertions
we're made that So-and-So would lose his
lob were the charter adopted, as though
he primary purpose of the government is
|. .94ptovidsc8 job for this that man. We
Should, bean f@mindt that InouKey Wester

aFnm emit fHaetions rightly whether itobe
in. Key West bf elsewhere, it's aim istoi benz
+ fit all the people, not any group or Sc
Gies OF groups. 7ga
Finally, many city employees, under
the new charter, will have their jobs Sc
cured under Civil Service without having
TO undergo examinations. The only way
they can be removed from office is if they
ere found guilty of failing to perform their
duties.
Let's hope pickering is now over and
let's hope we will all pull together for the
city's interests.
