ON FREEDOM

Our edifice of liberty is
supported by a tripod of
representative constitutional
government, civil and relig-
ious freedom, and the right
of every individual to as
much as he can earn by hon
est toll and effort-through
private competitive bust
ness.
Destroy any leg of this
tripod and you destroy per-
sonal freedom.
If there is anything the
history of mans struggle
for liberty proves, it is that
to enjoy the blessings of
political, intellectual and
religious liberty he must as
sumo a very large portion of
the responsibility for his
own economic well-being.
If he places the burden on
the shoulders of govern
ment, he will soon find that
he has reared a political
monster whose appetite for
control is literally Unsuitable
and which sooner or later
will devour all his freedom
in the process of expanding
it's power.

FOR OUR OWN SECURITY

Representative John E.
Rankin of Mississippi has
been prodded on a good
many OCCASIONS in his tiffs
with Walter Winchell and
sometimes squealed like a
stuck pig. His fulminations
evoked smokers instead of
resentment.
But whatever Rankin has
said, in or out of the realm
of the ridiculous, The Citi-
gen agrees with him whole
heartedly in his contention
that the United States re-
tain the secret of the atomic
bomb. Whether or not his as
certion that If Russia had
the secret about the way to
produce the bomb she would
wage war against the Unit
ed States is true or not, Is be-
side the question. The big
thing is for us TO keep the
secret for our own protec-
ton.
Why disclose the pro-
cesses in the manufacture
of the bomb to a committee
of the United Nations or
any other committee? AS
Stunning that that procedure
were followed, what would
happen if a member of the
committee resented holly
something the United States
had done? Chances are he
would walk out of the COM
mittee. as the Russian Am
bassador Gromyko walked
out of meetings of the UN
Security Council when some
thing he opposed came up
for consideration. And then
what would happen, parti-
cularly were he a Russian?
Human nature is such
that one. seeking vengeance,
frequently forgets his pledge
and is concerned only in
striking at the object of his
vengeance. Man has not
reached that stage of probity
where it would be safe to
entrust TO him a secret OF
such magnitude as is the
production of the atomic
bomb.
The United States is not
an aggressor nation; ii
wants nothing that belongs
to some other country. In
view of that fact, let it keep
the secret of the atomic
bomb for our own protection
and security,

A WISE INVESTMENT

- The Citizen believes that
the purchase yesterday by
City Commissioners of the
Sweeney property at the
foot of Duval street was a
wise and timely investment.
1t was wise because there
is a very limited amount of
land suitable for beach pur-
poses left on this island,
and it was timely because
private individuals have for
some time been trying to get
control of it. Indeed, we UNI
derstand that one interested
party offered the Sweeneys
$1,000 more for the prop
erty than the city paid, or
$4,000, but that they chose
to accept the lesser price as
a public gesture.
Now Key West has in it's
possession one of the things
!. it has long needed-a pub
lie municipal beach and
playground that it can be
proud Of. 1t is true that the
beach isn't much to look at
just at present, but when
the money is available, per-
haps within two or three
years, officials hope to build
bath houses and pavilions
there. Moreover, a program
of identifying the beach
will be carried out, we are
told. and when the whole
project is completed it will
be one of the most attrac-
tive bathing beaches in the
= country.
Even before money is
available for extensive i'm
provements at the beach
City Manager O. J. S. ELL
ingson tells us that he hopes
to accomplish several minor
improvements, such as keep
ing the beach clean and free
from debris and perhaps in
stalling a s h uff / eboard
court.
The purchase of South
Beach, coming as it does on
the heels of the city acquir-
ing control of the East Mar
tello Tower military reser-
walton for an airport and
port of entry. indicates that
the folks in City Hall are on
their toes these days.
The Citizen m ay not
agree with everything done
bv City Hall, but on COM
pletion of these two impor-
tant projects it offers it's
congratulations to the Of
ficials responsible for them.

AUCKLAND, N. 2. - (AP) 3
New Zealand's production of

sisted by the resumption of phos-
plate shipments from Nauru and
Ocean Islands. two rich pi1os-
phate islands near the Equator,
which were captured by the Jap

phosphate on the two islapds
about 1880 tons were shipped

WEDNESDAY, SEPT. II, 1916
This nature is rather abrupt,
but intensely genuine. There
NAV be a lack of suavity and the
mind may be severely critical,
but there is an element Of sim
ceritv which commands the re-
spect of all. There Is much love
Of country life and sports, and
the native will probably do bet
Ter there than when confined

SCHOOL HOUSE LANDMARKS

Editor, The Citizen:
Travellers on the Overseas
Highway have come to look on
the little stone schoolhouse at
Rock Harbor as. one of the way
marks, and now that il has be-
come a church it is even more
eloquent of the sturdy, pioneer
ing spirit of the jewellers on the
Florida Keys.
Established in 1924. it served
Rock Harbor as a Community
center, schoolhouse and meeting
place for worship until it was dis
continued as a school, when the
school bus" became an inStitu-
ton, about four years ago.
1t was offered for sale at ST.
900, and about 20 neighbors who
felt that no American commun-
ity was too small to maintain a
place of worship and a Sunday
School for its children. demon
strated their capacity for coopera-
ton by raising the money.
A neighbor gave his services
to make some required interior
alterations and another neighbor,
learning that an ex-movie palace
had some seats for sale, bought
them for the church.
Now, the final step is the ac-
quiring of some paint, an article
in the use of which every key
dweller is, by virtue of the fact
that he is also boatman, an ac-
knowledged expert.
The treasurer is w. B. Sawyer,
and if you are on good terms with
some paint dealer-well, you can
be a neighbor in good standing in
Rock Harbor also.

IDEAL KEY WEST

Editor, The Citizen:
We can make Key West the
ideal tourist resort in Florida if
we put all our efforts together,
and make use of the natural adj
vantages that we now have, that
other tourist cities would give
anything TO possess.
To start with, we have:
Cd The best all year round eli
mate, and the only frost-free city
in the United States;
(2) Because of disaster, we
have been given one of the Won
ders of the World-the Overseas
Highway, the most picturesque
and unique automobile road, over
which thousands of tourists now
travel;
80 We have at out door-steps
the best fishing, where sports
men can catch tarpon, sailfish
and other game fish the year
round;
"a We have the best of air
fields that were used during the
war by the United States govern
ment, that now can be used for
commercial purposes;
90 We are now provided with
ample supply of fresh water from
the mainland in quantity that
can take care of any commercial
enterprises such as new hotels
and apartment houses;
60 We now have sewerage all
over the island, which assures
sanitary conditions for any new
development;
(7) We have one of the best
harbors in the world, where the
largest passenger liners can en-
ter, because of sufficient depth
of water, and docks that can
berth any number of yachts;
| % We have an aquarium that
compares with any in the coun-
try, which can be stocked with
| hundreds of tropical fish that
cannot be seen anywhere else;
90 In the very near future we
will have. an automobile ferry
operating to Havana, Cuba, with
untold possibilities for automo-
bile travel;
| Now to take advantage Of all
these assets, we must have more
capital to expand. To do this we
must:
% Our tax system must be
watched, also our assessments,
so that improvements will not be
taxed so high that investors can't
make a fair return on their IN
vestments;
! CD An advertising campaign,
telling the tourist, and proSpec-
| tive investor what we now have,
and also what he can expect II
he invests here; also supporting
literature and pictures as well as
other data supporting our claims;
49, Key Westers to be impress
ed of their civic duties, such as
making our premises clean and
attractive, and above all, place
our Community interest before
self-interest;
! "a Place in desirable loca-
tons Information Booths, so that
VIXEN tourists visit our city they
can be given the proper lntor-
nation concerning accommoda-
| tons, restaurants and places of
interest that can be seen, and,
above all, make them feel at
! home.
If we make a concerted effort
to accomplish these things, Key
West can become the greatest
! tourist city in Florida.
Let's get started!
