3 LONDON, Sept. 10.-No repre-
sentatives of Jews and Arabs in
Palestine were present this morn
ing when the conference was
started to try to find way to
settle the differences between
those races in Palestine.
Other Jews and Arabs were
present, and Prime Minister
Attlee told them it was impos-

ton unless both Jews and Arabs
make concessions. If both sides
insist on being given everything
they ask for, then, he added, re-
suits of the conference will be
nil.
While the conference was in
session a dispatch was received
from Jerusalem, in which it
was stated that Jewish extrem-
lists had continued their work of
sabotage for the third successive
day. The British security office,
near Tel Aviv, was blown up and
the manager was killed by the
explosion.

Future Of Key West To Be
Discussed Tomorrow Night

B Jenny FERNANDEZ
KES PERTINENT
OBS ERIV ATIONS.
ABOUT OUR CITY
FERNANDEZ2

Key West Business Mems AS
sociation will hold meeting at
8 o'clock tomorrow evening in
the county court house to dis
cuss the future Of Key West,
Benny Fernandez, member,
said today.
What is in store for us in the
future?" Mr.. Fernandez stated.
What are our prospects? Is
there anything of progressive
nature that we can put our fin
ger on as regards the immediate
future of our city?
Mature has blessed us with
many advantages, one of which,
climate, is Incompatible, yet
what are we doing now to pub
licize those advantages? Are we
up and doing, as are the people
of other cities in Florida? Or are
we doing nothing, except hoping
that our city will progress along
substantial lines.
"All Key Westers / know are
devoted to our city, but few of
us are alive to its potentialities
as winter resort. While we love
Key West, we sit idly by and let
Key West take care of herself.
We may be sure of this: If we
don't work to promote the inter-
ests of Key West, we will go
right back to where we were be-
fore World War II.
sIn view of that fact that
should be apparent to all of us,
beseech every business man
and other resident to be present
tomorrow night at the meeting
in the county court house"
