TIME FOR REGRETS

With peace apparently assured Sat-
urday, news came out of Washington that
the army and the navy had cancelled con-
tracts amounting to four billion dollars, and
it was stated further that within six months
after the war is over eight million workers
will lose their jobs.
A Key Wester, commenting on those
statements, remarked:
Fortunate is the man who systematic
ally saved part of his earnings during the
lush tines
But how unfortunate is he who spent
all his earnings as fast as he got them, ap-
parently believing that good times were
going to last forever.
Many times, during the several busy
years in Key West, when everybody who
pointed out that he was wise man indeed
who was consistently saving part of what
he earned.
1t said further that the best way to
invest the savings was in war bonds. Not
only would he then have the best security
in the world but also, while he held the
bonds, they would accumulate interest for
him.
Many Key Westers took that advice,
and today, with the likelihood that before
long, obtaining work will not be as easy as
it is now, they will not have to worry about
where they will get their next meal.
1t is our opinion that there will be
many time when those Key Westers who
cashed their bonds as soon as they were
cashabe, will regret that they did not hold
them until they were really in need of
money.

EDUCATOR SPEAKS THE TRUTH

= Neither education nor government
can be truly free so long as either is DOM
mated and controlled by paid lobbyists and
other representatives of special interest
groups declares DIR. Henry c. Rainey, for
mer President of the University OF Texas,
who was discharged because he attempted
TO protect the rights of certain professors
% state their views upon economic and So
cial issues.
The educator calls attention to an evil
which. unfortunately, exists in the United
states and with which most Americans are
thoroughly familiar. Too often official &C
ton by boards and legislative bodies is guild
ed by lobbyists and pressure-groups.
Despite THE proclamations about
democracy that we often read, the United
states operates under form of representa-
tive government. Officials, elected or APP
pointed, are supposed to represent the in
terests Of the people as a whole and to base
their action upon the general welfare. 1t is
the business of lobbyists and pressure
groups 20 prevent this and to secure results
Got the eliques which they represent.
The public should recognize the power
egerted by these representatives of special
interests. This is the first step in making
them ineffective. 1t does not do much good
10 denounce an official, caught in the pres
sure. who very often knows what will hap
pen 10 him il he ignores the threat of the
lobbyists. The only remedy is in thorough
n-edueated citizenship, ready and willing
TO uphold the intelligent and honest repre-
sentative who serves the people as a whole
and dares to challenge selfish interests

COMPULSORY PHYSICAL TRAINING

Cornell University announces the adop-
ton of permanent compulsory physical
training program for freshmen and sophie
mores who will be required to devote three
hours weekly to some sport.
The idea is ''to make such training en-
jOyable rather than chore" by "emphasiz-
ing games and particularly carry lover sports
beneficial to health after graduation" In
structors will teach swimming, tennis, golf
badminton, squash, bowling, hand, ball,
fencing, volley ball and other sports.
We call attention to the action of this
university because the number of men and
women rejected for the armed forces reveal
the necessity of greater attention to physi-
cal development in our schools and colleges
The program announced at Cornell is
along the right line, because it attempts to
enlist the pleasurable interest of partici-
pants in the various sports and because the
student, upon leaving the University, will
be able to enjoy participation in the sports
in which he has acquired some proficiency.
Other schools and colleges would do
we'll to follow the example set by Cornell
which is, alter all, along the lines of the
physical educational program installed in
the schools of Washington some years ago

HITLER'S PLAN FOR ENGLAND

The British report that they have pos
session of Hitler's master plan for the adj
ministration of the British Isles which Der
Fueher planned to occupy in the Fall of
1910.
Soft-headed Americans worrying about
the punishment of the German people,
might note that the Nazis intended to de-
port the male population of the British
Isles, including men between the ages of
II and 45, to the continent where, presum-
ably, they would have joined the army of
slaves that worked for the Nazis
The Germans had no intention to re-
strict their evil-design to war criminals.
They planned to punish all the British peo-
pie and to enslave the able-bodied men. The
ultimate objective, no doubt, was to weaken
the British people and use their labor for
the benefit of the German people.
The Nazis leader, however, failed to
get into England. His plan misfired, largely
because he had no navy and because the
British air force was fighting organiza-
ton, manned by crews ready to die in the
defense of their country.
