OUT IN FRONT

20 TO any city, not nee
essarily a winter or a sum-
mer resort, and if you find
its people to be civic-mind-
ed. you may be sure it has
an active and efficient
Chamber of Commerce.
Conversely, if a city has
no chamber, or one t h a t
functions in a half-hearted
manner, it is safe to con-
clude that it is backward in
civic affairs. The residents
of such a city are content
to drift along with the 'eur-
rent, so long as they gare
able to gain a livelihood.
In view of those facts, it
was heartening to read
what President Glenn c.
Price had to say about the
attitude of the reorganiZed
Chamber of Commerce in
Key West. Prices words
are not idle words. Any
body who knows him well.
is aware that he is 60
getter.
We recall on several oc-
caSions when the Key West
golf course was in poor con-
dition and there was much
talk and no action in i'm
proving it. Price provided
the action. inspired others
with his vim and determl-
nation. and the course was
put in better condition.
Probably more is due TO
him than any other K e Y
Wester in obtaining Se50,-
600 TO construct a beach in
Key West. As a representa-
tive of the Key West Rotary
Club, where the movement
TO get q beach was initiated,
Price organized a civic COM
mittee 10 appear before the
county commissioners to
urge them to provide a
fund to build a beach.
He did not attend just one
meeting and call II a day.
as so many OF us are wont
to do in matters Of that kind.
but he chung TO the flanks OF
the commissioners. SO 10
speak. until a resolution TO
call a bond election was
passed.
But his fight for a beach
was not ended then, and has
not ended yet. He cam
paigned. day in and day. out,
among voters 10 have them
approve at the polls the
proposal for a speech. And
now. as the head Of the civic
committee. he is actively
working with the commits
sion in retaining engineers
TO make a survey TO deter
mine the best place along
the south shore for a beach.
And you may be sure he
will keep on hitting" until
the beach is a reality.
As head Of the Chamber
of Commerce. Key Westers
may be sure they will find
Glenn Price always out in
front striving to better eco
nomic conditions in I h
community.

"An influx of new industries not
related to agriculture" he said, will
destroy agriculture and not COM

at a crossroads and must decide
whether the valley shall be agri-
cultural or industrial"

u. 5. Workers
Decline 34,081
During October
Officials Predict
Heavier Cuts in
Next Six Months
By Joseph YOUNG

The Civil Service Commission re-
ported today that Federal employ
ment during october had decreased
by 34,081 employees and Government
officials predicted that this is only
the forerunner Of heavier personnel
cuts to come in the next six months.
The number of Government en-
ployeS in the District decreased by
1,119 during the month, leaving a
total of 224,743 Federal workers
here.
Federal employment in the con-
tinental United States as of October
81 was 2,118,984. Total Government
employment is set at 2,434 ,905 work.
ers when the 315,921 Government
employees overseas are added. This
was the first time since it has issued
its monthly employment reports
that the commission has included
overseas personnel in its tabulation.
Government officials said person.
mel cuts will be stepped-up consid-
erably between now and next July
in order to pare the Federal payroll
down to 1.611 900 employees as or
dered by Congress.
In this connection. Federal Off
cials said the 1911, 900 figure was
not intended to include most of the
overseas employees. The attitude of
the new Republican Congress on
the overseas phase of personnel re-
ductions has still to be determined.
OF the overseas total, 209. .448 en-
ployes are serving in foreign coun-
tries, while 106,473 workers are sta
toned in United States territories.
Most of the overseas personnel are
employed by the War and Navy De-
partments.
Once again. the bulk Of dismissals
during October in the Federal serv-
ice occurred in the War and Navy
Departments. The War Department
dropped 1880 employees and the
Navy Department dismissed 9.446
workers. The other Federal agencies,
with the exception of the Post Office
and Veterans Administration,
dropped a total Of 4,500 employees.
The VA added 12,178 employees to
its payroll, and Post Office hired
1904 more workers.
