WORK

The Washington dispatch
in The Citizen a few days
ago, in which the Bureau of
the Census of the Depart
ment of Commerce gave
minute particulars a b out
farms" in Monroe county,
probably evoked a good
many smokers among Key
Westers.
But there was a time in
the history of Key West
when farms in Monroe coun-
ty were not a laughing mat
ter. Income. from farms on
the Florida Keys amounted
to hundreds of thousands of
dollars annually.
We recall the disappoint-
ment expressed by a grow
er of pineapples when his
net earnings totaled a little
more than ST., 900. Reason
for his disappointment was
because the earnings had
been ranging from $25, 900
to $4,000 a year.
If land on the keys pro-
duced that wealth so to rs
years ago, why is it that it
is not producing it today?
The answer is easy to find !:
the old timers were not
afraid of work. The land is
still there, is still as good as
it was then, but we have no
workers to get the wealth
out of the soil. We plant a
few lime trees, or various
fruit trees, and lean back
and wait for them to pro-
duce.
But in those days the
farmers and their helpers
were out on the farms work
ing at daybreak, and, ex-
cept when they stopped to
eat, worked till the sun went
down. And, chiefly because
of that work, they slept
better and were healthier
than we of comparative
ages are today.
Wealth abundant is still
in the soil on the Florida
Keys, and the only thing
needed to get it is work.

WHO OWNS THE
TIDELANDS?

The tides still keep up
their old custom of ebbing
and flowing twice III every
"a hours. This is a matter
that concerns the sun and
the moon. But that hasn't
anything to do with the leg
islation by which the Con-
gress renowned all Federal
claims to tideland oils. Just
why Congress should pass
laws that would give States
clear titles to certain oil
rich lands chiefly these
between the three-mile limit
and the low-tide mark along
the Nations coast, seems to
be one of those decisions
that is ''as clear as mud"
The Congressional law
seems to have been an off
shoot of the row earlier in
the year between Secretary
of Interior Ickes and Edwin
w. Pauley,- who was nomin-
ated by President Truman to
be Under-Seeretary of the
Navy. Apparently Iekes and
Pauley believed in opposite
directions. In the end both
of them were retired from
the Government service.
President Truman vetoed
the tideland oil bill on the
grounds that Congress is
mot an appropriate forum
to determine the legal issues
now before the court, and
the Jurisdiction of the SUI
preme Court should not be
interferred with while it lis
arriving at its decision in the
pending case. .
Even in Washington the
guessing has been about
$3.50 between Federal YER
sus State ownership.

ON THE TRAIL OF FACTS

Sometimes while we are
reading an article, a feature
story or history. we won-
der, and the wonder Isl
mixed with admiration, how
the author succeeded in OBJ
tanning so many facts.
Behind his familiarity
with the subject is much re-
search work that sometimes
takes him from state to state
or even to foreign countries.
We have a case in point
in Key West now. The Rev.
Joseph T. Durkin. Sd, pro
fessor of American history
in the graduate school OF
Georgetown u niverslty y,
Washington, is in Key West
searching for further par
ticulars about Stephen Rus
sell Mallory, who was a coll
Iector of customs in Key
West in its early days, and
secretary Of the Confederate
navy. The local chapter of
the Daughters of the Con-
federacy is named t h e
Stephen r. Mallory chapter.
Father Durkin, who has
written several books of a
historical nature, will go
here, there and everywhere
he thinks he may be able to
obtain additional facts about
his subject.
That is the way of the
good historian. But turning
again to Key West, it may
be said that MalIofylsNla ls

Of this city who had interests

activities of Union forces.
Ward, instead, published an
editorial in which he said
that the people of the south
"were against enemies with

before he could be brought
to task, left the city to join
the Confederate forces.

Thin Stock Market
Jo|ted Severely by
Selling in Week
By Victor Eubonk
Assoeiotsd Pres. Finoneial Writer

ssoNiViwo ttoSS Ftnonctot WFifef
NEW YORK, June 22.-The stock
market this week suffered one of its
sharpest slumps of the past nine
years without any actual spot news
to account for the relapse.
The rails did fairly well Monday,
equaling their 15-year peak estab-
hshed two days earlier as hopes of
an imminent freight rate boost per-
sisted, but the list, as a whole,
showed little inclination to follow
through. Even the steels failed to
respond enthusiastically to rapidly
expanding ingot production. Some
1nhation buying elsewhere was based
on rising living costs and wages.
Blue Chips" Lead.
On Tuesday "blue chips" led the
widest dip since March 13 with
activity quickening. Selling here
was blamed partly on the recent
logey performance of the market
generally and its inability to trail
the carriers into new high ground.
Paramount Pictures fell 31s despite
good profits picture and stock
holders approval of splitup pro-
posal. Du Pont lost 6lz points,
Chrysler 4 and Gimbel 39s.
Selective comebacks appeared
Wednesday but they were not sufl-
cient to put the averages in the
plus column. Sweets Co. was up
~ on a lifted dividend and
S-for-1 split program. Eastman
Kodak. however, dropped 8 points
on 200 shares.
Worthwhile Bids Lacking.
The real crack came Thursday
when the exceptional "thinness" of
the market-lack Of worthwhile bids
brought slumps of l to about 20
points for numerous pivotals. The
market was dull and narrow until
the final hour when transfers en-
braced $4,000 of the days total of
100000 shares, largest since the
last of may. Among varied reasons
given was the fear of a buyers
strike" in stocks, liquidation of
stale margin accounts, skepticism
over price control legislation and
international affairs. The overall
index retreated 1.9 points, sharpest
downtown since the 3.4 fall of Febru-
ary Is which was the widest since
October 18, 1887.
In the Thursday nosedive, East
man Kodak added 1917 points to
It's decline on Wednesday on only
100 shares. Du Pont was of 8, Allied
Chemical 51a, Union Pacific 4,
Goodrich AZ, Montgomery Ward
81 and Santa Fe 3A.
Some Support Appears.
Selective support arrived Friday
on the idea that selling had been
overdone and that the market had
been placed in a much stronger
technical position. Rails, industriais
and utilities improved and even
Eastman Kodak got back 1874
points of its two-day slide. Numer-
Gus leaders, though, were indiffer-
ent and minus marks were plentiful
at the close, volume of 1,340, 900
shares was the best of the five-day
stretch and the largest since May %.
On the week the market showed
an average loss of 81 points at 1873,
greatest since the period ended
February % which was the largest
since the week of July 81, 1943.
The weeks aggregate Of 5,934, $3.50
