Factories End cations

Most Waterbury factories were back in regular production today after a long Fourth of July holiday. Some plants had been closed all last week, others were shut down from Wednesday afternoon until this morning. Several smaller concerns arc on holiday again this week.
 The Scovill Manufacturing Com pany, he Lux Clock Company and the Chase Brass & Copper Con- pany reopened today after a holiday that had extended from Wednes- day. American Brass Company, many of whose departments had not been operating since Wednes- day, was back on regular schedule today.
 One Of the few factories not to have long weekend holiday was the Oakville Division of Scovill. Union employees there, who were on strike earlier this year, voted against shutdown Friday and Sat- urday and work at the division went on as usual.

LACK CONCENTRATION

What kind of a reader are
you? That question has
been asked many q time,
and many articles have been
written about it. Various
percentages have been given
Of the number Of readers
who understand what they
read, and the highest in any
case that we have seen is so
per cent.
The Citizen asks chat
question because Sam Gold
smith, who has been con-
nected with the Key West
Weather Bureau for many
years, remarked on Satur-
day:
Our phone has been
busily ringing the last few
days, and at the other end
Of the wire were Key West
ers inauiring about the 1o-
cation Of the hurricane. Ma
turaIly, we asked, What
hurricane?' and they ans
wered, The hurricane pub
lished in The Citizen We
then remarked that we had
not seen an advisory In The
Citizen recently, and then
were told, oh, yes, it was
published yesterday. So we
looked over column after
column in The Citizen and
noticed that in the Ten
Years Ago column was an
account Of a tropical dis
turbance in this or that To-
cality. with winds of mod
crate intensity but gradual
IL increasing to hurricane
velocity
Since then, Mr.. Gold
smith explained, when the
bureau receives a call of that
nature, it advises the read
er to look at the top of the
column in which they read
the advisory.
Tests in schools and col
leges in the reading of items
of only 90 words have dem
onstrated that readers, when
asked to tell the substance
Of what they had read, in
variably give different ans
wers In many instances.
Frequently, we hear the
remark, Il saw that in the
paper and it turns out that
no such thing was seen 'sip

tration, psychologists say, i

sons do not understand
what they read.

ISLANDS WON I'm THE
PACIFIC

Announcement t h a t the
United States will retain ex-
elusive custory of Pacific
bases wrested from the Jap
anese should not cause any
surprise, either in this coun-
try or abroad
While there is some epin-
ion in this country favorable
to turning the Pacific islands
over to an international adj
ministration, there is nobody
that we know of who advo-
Gates giving up the islands
before there is a thoroughly
functioning body.
When the Japanese at
tackled the United States at
Pearl Harbor, this country
was without the bases nee
essary to support fleet OPP
erations in the Far East.
The bases were in the hands
of the Japanese who got
them after the first World
War and fortified them in
direct violation of the terms
of the mandate.
Now that the islands have
been recaptured by the
blood of American fighting
men, it is unthinkable that
officials Of the United
States would lightly give UP
possession without being as
sured that it will never be
necessary, in some future
war, to fight for them again.
less Importance than the
port of entry issue, Key
West would undoubtedly
have, and have IN a hurry,
some of the other things she
needs so badly.

WANTS STREETS IMPROVED

WANTS STREETS lMPhON6D
Editor, The Citizen:
The people of Key West must
realize by now that our city gov
eminent is in reality an erganl-
cation existing for the sole bene-
fit of those in office. With the
two exceptions of police and fire
protection. the people of this city
are deriving absolutely no bene-
fits whatsoever by paying taxes!
Why, then, must the people
continue to pay taxes? Do our
local solons believe that we main
tain city government for the
express purpose Of creating
means of livelihood for them? Do
they believe that the taxpayers
money should 60 only towards
paying their salaries?
Let us look at our streets for
Just one minute. 1t doesn't take
much longer than that TO discover
that they are in a deplorable con-
dition, and disgrace, not only
to the City of Key West, but to
the whole State of Florida as
well.
Why can't these streets be paw
ed (and l mean paved, not patch
ed with the money that the citi-
zens of Key West are pouring in
to the city treasury? The first
excuse that probably would be
offered in lieu of an answer to
this question would more than
likely be that our city has no
money. However, it seems to me
that / but recently read an article
stating that our city collected
more money in taxes than ever
before in its whole history. If

funds that it cannot meet its OBJ

DEPARTURE

Editor, The Citizen:
II Is with deep regret that the
many friends Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Stephen c. Singleton have
learned Of their approaching de-
parture for another Florida city,
where they will make their
home.
Since coming to Key West to
reside number of years ago,
Mr.. and Mrs. Singleton have en-
deared themselves to wide cir
Gle Of residents. Mr.. Singleton
has been identified with the
lower East Coast Of Florida for
great many years, but it was
only about Is years ago that the
couple decided to make their
home in this city
With a progressive spirit that
always marches forward, and
with keen insight to the fu-
ture, Mr.. Singleton organized the
Key West Chamber Of Com
merce. He personally contacted
the business men and pointed out
the need of a lively Chamber to
attract the tourist trade to Key
West. In this he succeeded be-
yond his fondest hopes. Being a
newspaper man, he attended to
the publicity himself, and sent
thousands of letters and illustrat-
ed literature all over the world,
with the object of attracting TO
Key West the tourists seeking
what Key West, and no other
Florida city, had to offer.
Key West suffers a severe loss
in the moving of the Singletons,
but there is always the hope
that they may some day return

coMMENDABLE ACTION

City officials, the Cham
Der of Cdfpmarce, RogeIio
Gomez, and all others re-
sponsible for saving Key
Vests port of entry status
deserve epnlmesdation Of the
highest order. Federal au-
thorities had set September
IL as the deadline for pre-
serving the port of entry
status, and up Until Friday,
the 9Th, the prospects for so
doing did not appear to be
any too bright.
Indeed, more than one
public official and not a
few interested citizens had
all but given up hope, when
word came that I'll acres at
the East Martello Tower
military reservation would
be made available for port
of entry purposes. After
fhaI things moved swiftly.
Mayor Demeritt met Cap
tain w. j.. Suits, of the
Navy, and Colonel r. e. Tur-
ley, Of the Army, and to-
gether they signed the nee.
essaly documents transfer
ring control of the East Mar
tello Tower reservation to
the city of Key West.
Scarcely was the ink dry
on the documents before
Rogelio Gomez, local man
ager Of Aeroyias-Q Airlines,
came forward with COM
plete plans for the layout
of the port of entry, build
ings, walks, runways, and,
happily, at a special meet
ing of City Commissioners
held Friday afternoon, he
was given authority to pro-
coed with them.
1t would have been q
tragedy, q staggering blow,
if Key West had lost its port
of entry status. The city
simply would have been by
passed by thousands of
travellers, and no doubt even
freight lines would have
eventually lost interest in
making stops at the Island
City.
We might say that the
port of entry status was
saved by a "gnat's eyelash. /"
but certainly there was moth
ing dilatory in the actions of
officials once they got going
on the problem. It just goes
to show that there are
plenty of men of action here
abouts who can get things
done in q hurry when they
have to. IF a little Of this
same spirit could be injected

~oNE OF FINEST RECORDS

Editor, The Citizen:
Several days ago ] noticed
Traffic Officer Frank Caraballo
walking a beat on Division street.
/ mentioned the fact to several
friends during the course Of oar
conversation and was indeed
surprised to hear their COM
ments on the subject. It seems
that Officer Caraballo placed a
ticket for illegal parking ON an
automobile owned and operated
by one of our very influential
and outstanding citizens, who is
an executive of Radio Station
WKWF.
The story is that Caraballo has
before incurred the wrath of this
outstanding young man who has
so often claimed to have the Put
lie Interest of Key West at heart.
by arresting him for a traffic
violation.
My personal opinion of Cara
ballo is that he has one of the
finest records of any member of
the Key West Police force and
if a man is to be punished for
carrying out his duties by taking
him away from the work he is
most familiar with and placing
him on an obscure post, then |
say, 'sWho is running the police
force?"
I recall that the radio executive
supposedly involved in the trans
fer of Caraballo made this state
ment several weeks ago, Give
me an honest police force or none
