The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1946-09-07

The Citizen has said on several
occasions that it won't be long
before Monroe, which, since its
formation, has had but one city,
will shortly have three cities, the
other two Marathon and Taver-
nier.
Both of these places are grow
ing rapidly, and it will not be long
before they are incorporated as
cities.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. c. Sweeting
and children spent their vacation
at Marathon, and here are some
of the things that Mr.. SWeeting
says about his impressions OF
Marathon:
"The Marathon Chamber OF
Commerce is really on the ball
Nothing, however small it may
be, is neglected Every commune
cation is investigated, and every
possible inducement is offered
It is paying off, as results prove.
Mr.. and Mrs. Forsythe act as
treasurer and secretary of this
small and efficient organization.
While looking through their files,
/ wondered what had happened
to the shirt factory that the Mar
athon Chamber of Commerce
referred to Key West, as there
are no accommodations in Mara
tbon for factory of that size.
sMrs. Forsythe asked me If
anything had come of the shirt
factory in. Key West, and told
her 1 had not heard a word
about it. Has any other Key
Wester heard about it?
''In the near future we will re-
gard Marathon as a sister city.
We will also have to weather
the keen competition she will
give us. Marathon already has a
fair portion of the fishing bust

City Manager @. j. S. Filing
son this week stated that he is
preparing a plan for commits
sioner approval that will place
radio control on police cars and
fire trucks. The original cost of
placing the equipment in City
Hall would be less than $4,000,
with about $500 for each car that
would be radio equipped, Filing
son said.
Ellingson told of the benefits
to be derived from this installa-
ton, including the better police
protection that it would afford.
The cars that would be radio
equipped would keep in continu-
Gus patrol, ever on the watch,
and could be contacted imme-
diately to carry out instructions
relayed to them by the radio
control station that would be To-
Gated in the police department.

ployed. This is supposed to be
static-free. and in time it is said
that most car-to-station radios
will be using this system.
On question by The Citizen as
to the rumor that is going the
rounds that some non-city en-
ploye will be paid per monthly
payment to direct, supervise,
maintain, etc, this equipment of
$3.50 monthly was denied en-

CREATING SERIOUS
CONDITION THERE
lny AsancInfed prassl

WASHINGTON, Sept. -Four
hundred thousand men along the
Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific Coasts
have been thrown out of work
because of the maritime strike, it
was announced today.
Adding to the gravity of the
situation was the statement, is
sued this morning by represen-
tatives of the tugboatmen in
New York harbor, that they
would join the strike. Mayor
ODWyer of New York said that
one-half of the food and 80 per
cent of the fuel are towed into
the New York port by tugboats,
and that the city faces a situa-
ton as grave as that which oc-
Cured months ago when the tug
boatmen struck.
He said that he will use police
men and other city employees to
unload ships to provide food and
fuel to residents of New York
City.
In all ports in the United States
705 ships are idle, 448 of Amer
lean registry and 257 of foreign
registry.
The War Department an
nounced that American troops in
European and Pacific zones have
AZ days of supplies.
Among the cargoes aboard
ships that are at wharves or an
chorage are large quantities OF
supplies for United States troops
in foreign countries.
Vast quantities of UNRRA
supplies are aboafd other ships.
Union leaders explain that the
strike will continue unless the
ruling of the War Labor Board
is changed. Union men and own
ers of ships had agreed to a
wage raise of $22.50 a month on
the western coast and S21;5u on
the eastern coast of the United
States, but the WLB cut down the
advance to $3.50 for both areas.
Several ships left the New
York harbor today for foreign
ports, but no freight was put
aboard and passengers had to
carry their baggage to the ships
through picket lines.
It was reported that President
Truman is still pursuing a hands
off, policy until it is determined
what Secretary of Labor Schwel-
lenbach accomplishes in his con-
ference with maritime labor
unions. Assistant Secretary OF
Labor Philip Hanna left for New
York this morning to confer with
labor union leaders in that city.

Vets Urged To Give
Full Information
When Seeking Aid

Colonel w. S. Shipman, man
ager of the Veterans Admins
tration, states that one of the
great difficulties facing employ
ees OF the Veterans Administra-
ton in rendering service to vet
Grams is the lack OF accurate
information from veterans. One
of the toughest problems which
the Veterans Administration has
to handle is the rising flood of
mail pouring into the Regional
Office in jackson. More than
four million veterans all over the
country--and it will eventually
be 10 millionaire turning TO the
Veterans Administration for ed
ucation, loans, vocational guild
ance, disability pensions and in
surance. Each case requires in
dividual, often immediate atten-
tion, but there just isn't the
trained personnel available to
give this attention. 1t is hard to
say, BE patient and wait your
turn to men and women who
have for years looked forward
TO their return to the freedom
of civilian life, Colonel Shipman
said.
Much of the delay in helping
the individual veteran with his
reconversion plans is caused by
the lack Of sufficient informa-
ton. If a veteran fails to give
his fun name and write it legi-
