ROLE OF sTEPcHILD

Key West, under the wing of Miami,
always is accorded that stepchild treat
ment, and in no instance recently has that
been more the case than in sending food
stuffs here, particularly meats.
We have known of frequent trips that
have been made to Miami by local meat
marketmen in efforts to obtain beef and
other meat products, and time and again
they have returned empty-handed.
When they. succeeded in obtaining
meat, it was only a small part of what they
tried to get What was the reason for that
condition? The answer is that the meats
could be sold at higher prices in Miami and
its vicinity through the Black Market than
it could in Key West where dealers adj
hered to the OPA ceiling prices. There
fore, we got little or no meat.
We have heard of some families that
have gone as long as three months without
being able to buy meats, except sausages
occasionally, and while those cases may be
extreme, it has been a general thing for
Key Westers to go without beef for three
weeks or longer.
Buff the Tropical Quick Freeze Com
pany does what its president, John Nc
Mahon, says it will do, then we no longer
will play the role of Miami's stepchild. He
informed The Citizen that he had 10000
pounds of beef on hand and is in position
.tosbriag $4,000 pounds weekly to Key West
if the Trade jlstifiess his doing so. Besides
he will bring .heresthousands of pounds of
chickens, which, together with the beef,
will be sold at OPA ceiling prices, and eggs
that will be offered at 81 cents dozen,
which is under the OPA ceiling.
Let us be thankful we no longer will
be forced to play the role of Miami's step
child.

THE BLOOD OF FREEDOM.

: Al Hood River, Oregon, they removed
from the Honor Roll the names of the Jap
anese-Americans, the Uise, fighting in the
United States Armed Services. Then, TAX
ing thought for what they had done, they
replaced these names.
Why did they remove them?
Why did they put them back?
What had changed in the interval?
The names were removed because of
an hysterical impulse to Judge all men by
racial groupings rather than by the test of
character and behavior. These men. they.
said. are of japanese blood. The Japanese
are treacherous, cruel, barbarous. There
fore these men. of Japanese ancestry, are
tFeaeherous. They must be- that is their
destiny, as II is their race. That is what
was thought; and so the names were re-
moved.
Then there was an cutlery. 1t was
an outcry ON national scale. This small
ael. in small place, became a huge mis-
desd in huge country. Look" cried the
! men of good viii, the men Of reason, from
all over the map of the 48 states, Look!
You are saying what Hitler said, doing
what Hitler did. You are agreeing that
there can be a Master Race, that blood is
stronger than environment, that ancestry
In more powerful than the air of freedom"
SO the people of Hood River listened and,
with considerable moral courage Git is hard
la acknowledge an error publicly, they re-
stared the names of the Niesi to the Honor
Rail.
Now, in the time between removal and
, the restoration, only one thing had changed.
Il was that men realized, suddenly, that if
all the Niesi were necessarily like their re-
! mote cousins, the japanese, then sotmust
1 be all ltalian-Amercans, all Germ an
Americans; that if. we began to count out
thase whose ancestors had eyersdene a
( brutal or cruel act, barbarous act, We
\ should find no one gultless and all beyond
i salvasion. God alone knew whose name
would next, because of his father. or his
randfather. come off the Honor Roll
That is all that changed. We had bet

BLIND PREJUDICE

blind" and "prejudice'', together. AS a
matter of fact, you don't any more need
blind" as an adjective in front of "preju-
dice than you need round in front of
circle" Prejudice is always blind.
+. Webster's dictionary defines prejudice
as an opinion adverse to anything without
just grounds or before sufficient knowl-
edge. Right. there lies the clue to why
prejudice is SO hard to overcome. Preiu-
dice is not considered judgment. Prejudice
is purely emotional.
A violent dislike for people who are
different" can usually be traced tc one Of
two reasons. Either the person with the
prejudice allows his emotions to rule his
mind. Oh else he feels insecure and, because
Of his insecurity, needs to feel superior to
somebody.

concept is based on the "self-evident'' truth

People who fseEpreSiediee, talk about

put a curb on our emotions? That would
seem small price to pay for freedom.
