KEEP 1T SOUND

When we go from the old to the new,
whether individually or collectively, it re-
quires time, as rule, to adapt ourselves
to the innovation.
Thus it has been with the commission
manager form of government in Key West,
which had been advocated by the Citi-
zen for rs years, and came into being as
a result of The Citizens recurrent drive
for it's adoption.
Frankly, during the first two years the
change was in effect, The Citizen some
times felt that the switch from the coun-
cilmanic to the cOmmissiOn-manager form
had been in vain. But things are different
now We have what may be characterized
as businessman's commission, which is
alive to everything that may promote the
interests of Key West and has its col
lective feet firmly planted against any
thing that may economically harm the
community.
Several instances of the latter nature
have come up before the commission,
which could not be swayed from it's de-
cision.
The Citizen believes that the people of
Key West may feel confident that, during
the life of the present commission, the in
terests of the city as cooperative subdi-
vision, will be conserved with an insistence
that is similar to the attitude of business
concern.
The commission is alive to the fact that
the money in the city's treasury is the peo-
pies money, paid to the city in various
ways for it's maintenance and operation.
Any expenditures that do not conform to
that rule have no chance, The Citizen be-
lieves, of being made.
The city has large surplus, and as
long as it has surplus, large or small, its
financial position will be sound

Ruark Is Held Briefly
In Visa IrreguIarity
BY the Associated Press

ROME, Aug. 2e.-United States
Army headquarters said Robert
Ruark, American newspaper column
ist whose charges Of abuses in the
American Mediterranean command
have led to an official investigation,
had been detained by italian police
here for time today because of an
irregularity in his papers.
The detention occurred as Mr..
Ruark, whose cooperation in the
Investigation had been requested by
Mai. Gen. Ira T. Wyche, Army in
spector general, arrived at Ciampino
Airport en- route to Leghorn.
United States Army and Embassy
officials intervened promptly on be-
half Of Mr.. Ruark, and his release
was obtained after an hour or SO.
Authorities at Ciampiao, the big
United States Army air base outside
Rome which recently was returned
to Italian control. said Mr.. Ruark's
difficulties with the passport office
apparently arose out Of his lack OF
q re-entry permit.
An Army spokesman said its rep
resentatives at the field tried in vain
to persuade the Italians to overlook
the passport irregularity but 1t was
not until an official Of the Criminal
Investigation Division interveneo
that he was set free.
Earlier, Army authorities here had
announced that q special plane has
been provided to take Mr. Ruark
and other correspondents to Leg.
horn, where the columnist presum.
ably would talk to Gen. Wyche.

US.FIyer, Wife Saved
From Canadian WiIds
ey the Assoeioisd Press

WINNIPEG, Aug. 26.-T/Sergt. j.
n. Nelles, 80, of the United States
Army Engineers, and his wife rested
In winnipeg today after one Of the
most spectacular air rescues In the
annals Of Western Canadian flying
The light plane in which the Gary
{Ind.) serviceman and Mrs. Nelles
took of from Chicago for his station
at Churchill, Manitoba, was forced
down by a storm Friday at Water
Hen Lake, 1872 miles north OF Win
nipeg.
From then until late Sunday
when an RCAF search craft sight
ed the upside-down plane and
summoned a Dakota which dropped
supplies, the Nelles, neither OF
whom was injured, lived pretty
miserable existence" They had
only q blanket and their airedale
dog to keep them warm.
Il think if it hadn't been for that
dog, we'd have frozen to death,
Sergt. 4Nelles said.
Another plane brought three
Canadian army officers, including 9
medical officer, to the scene. Two
of the officers parachuted to the
Nelles' aid, but the doctor remained
on the plane when 1t was discovered
the two Americans did not require
medical aid.
An RCAF Norseman landed or
the lake yesterday, took of the foul
and the dog and transferred then
to a Dakota which brought them Il
winnipeg last night.
