WHILE MONEY IS CHEAP"

eff YOU have the money, you can get
anything you want" has been said often,
but the people of Key West know that was
not true during the war. and is not true
now.
The Key West housewife will tell you
that there are many kinds of fOOdstuffs she
would like to get. and. though she has the
money to pay for them, she can not get
them. and hundreds of owners of automo-
biIes will tell you that, with their tires worn
down to the fabric, they have the money to
buy new tires. but are unable to find any
to buy.
The announcement that tires will be
taken off the ration list January is view
ed as of slight consequence by car owners
in Key West.
What of it? New tires are not avail
able now, and, should the same condition
be in effect when they are no longer ra-
toned, what difference will it make? We've
got the money but can't buy tires
But conditions will not always be the
same. Money is plentiful and cheap" now,
but the time will come when many peck
etb0ok will be skeletOnized, and tires and
foodstuffs will be plentiful, but money will
be scarce.
SO with money cheap" now, if you
want TO have a fairly sizable roll of it when
you will be in a position to buy anything
you want within your particular sphere,
you will be wise to hold tightly to it now
when it is OF no use in buying certain things.
The change will come, as it always
has come. and wise is the man who holds
on to as much of his money as he can while
it is cheap, for. as sure as night follows day,
the daytime will come again when money
will be dear

POLITICS FOLLOWS TRAIL BLAZERS

Centralized government IN various
forms is steadily expanding. 1t Is evident
in proposals for state medicine. in cOmpul-
sorv arbitration of labor disputes, in the
qualifications of price regulation, III the IN
sidious drive for public ownership OF basic
industries Our form of government Is 1T
orally changing before our very eyes. The
headlines are filled with announcements
of public officials affecting the lives of mil
lions.
Electric power is but a pin point IN a
mighty trend in which authority hungry
politicians seize upon the accomplishments
of individuals and make them appear as
gifts from government. An illustration OF
this trend can be seen in Seattle, Washing
ton. Sixty years ago the Seattle Electric
Lighting Company, a private concern, was
formed and applied for franchise. The
CITY Council deliberated for month before
granting the franchise, under which the
venturesome souls forming the company
were permitted "to erect poles and stretch
wires for electrical purposes. Seattles
population was 9786. Today Seattles
population is over half million. The de-
scendant of the original electric company
is the Puget Sound Power and Light Com
pany. Now public agencies. using ruth
less tactics like the defunct aggreSsOr ma
tions,- are striving to take away the bust
ness of this heavily-taXed stringently-reg-
uated enterprise built by private citizens
during a siXty-year period.
In electric power, as in countless other
are squabbing in the name of the public
welfare, there would be no achievements
to bicker over had not path of accom-
plishment first been blazed Government
sponsored and financed plans to destroy
private enterprise are a disgrace to our
country.

GOOD DOCTRINE" IN JAPAN

Joseph C. Grew. ambassador to Tokyo
in pre-war years. says that in 1910 the Jap
anese press was ''emblaZoning the speech
es made by isOationiSts in the United
States and was playing up all the strike
news in this country.
At that time the counsellor of our en-
bassy in Japan. Eugene H. Dooman, told
the japanese assistant minister for Ofreign
affairs that an attack on Singapore would
inevitably raise the question of war with
the United States
Mr.. Grew said that this was good
doctrine to spread among the Janpaese''
because it tended to convince them that
the people of this country were not COM
pletely isolationist and pacifiStic as many
Japanese had been led to believe.

URUGUAY TAKES THE LEAD

4 significant development in the foreign
policies of the nations of the Western Hem
isphere is the proposal of the Uruguayan
government that there be collective inter-
vention against any country that denies its
citizens essential rights, or defaults on its
international obligations
The Foreign Minister of Uruguay saws
that the policy of 'nOn-interventiOn'' must
be harm0nized with new concepts i'm the
interest of preserving international peace
and security. He says that ''non-interven-
ton cannot be invoked by governments in
order to violate all other principles with
immunity.
The proposal has been endorsed by
the government of Venezuela and in prin-
clple" by Secretary of State Byrnes.
1t apparently contemplates joint eco
nomic sanctions against an erring nation,
with the possibility of armed force if ne
ceSSary to remove what must be regarded
as threat to the democratic civilization
that the Western Hemisphere considers
essential to the happiness and prosperity of
Its people.

"SHOP EARLY" is SOUND ADVICE

Not many years ago the shop early
slogan began to appear about this time in
an effort to persuade people to make their
Christmas purchases early, in order to
avoid a last minute rush which was in
convenient to shoppers and sales people.
This year we advise the people of Mon
roe County to do their Christmas shopping
early. not so much to avoid mountaineering
sales people, but because of the shortage of
available goods. In fact. those who ex-
pect to choose their Christmas gifts with
discretion will have to act fast or they will
not only lose the right of choice but prob
ably the opportunity to purchase as well.
The customers can take comfort. how
ever. in the prospect that the Christmas
season of 1916 will find their favorite
stores pIentifuly supplied with goods and
gadgetS of almost unimaginable extent. BY
next December, some of the marvels prom
ised for the postwar era should be on sale
The thought may temper the disappoint-
ment of those unable to buy what they
want in 1915.
