Constructive
Suggestion For
Christmas Gifts

A constructive Christmas gift
suggestion was made by the
Monroe County Audubon So
ciety at a recent meeting. The
recommendation was contained
in the following resolution
which was passed unanimously:
Resolved: that parents care
fully consider the dangers of CIV
ing their children rifles, shot
guns, air rifles, slingshots, or
other devices which may tempt
them 10 become law-breakers by
killing birds. Birds of Key West
and the Florida Keys are pro-
tected against killing, trapping,
or molestation by state and fed
eral law.
BE it further resolved that
parents make presents of such
constructive items for children
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1947-12-11

as fishing rods and reels or
handlines, athletic and outdoor
game equipment, cameras, car
pentering tools, bird guides and
other books and magazines about
natural history, and other gifts
which will lead to their devel-
opment as constructive, rather
than destructive, adults"
The resolution was passed at a
meeting at which approximately
20 teachers and other youth
group leaders made plans for
the organization of more Junior
Audubon Clubs through which
appreciation and understanding
of the value of birds and other
wildlife will be promoted. A
major project of the Monroe
County Audubon Society is aid
ing child education in this field,
as an extension of the work of
the National Audubon Society.

REMEMBER THE NEEDY AT HOME

We sometimes wonder if while we, as
a nation, are functioning as the worlds
Samaritan W. are not neglecting the needy
Of our own land. II is fine 10 loan or give
millions TO Val impoverished peoples in
an effort TO get them back TO s~elf-support-
ing and productive life. But would ii not
be equally fine 10 divert some Of the mil
lions, more millions than have been so
dispensed in the past, TO meet tha needs
Of our own ill-fed, ill-housed and despair
ing people?
This is not said with reference 10 war
veterans alone. There are tens Of thou
sands Of Americans in want, despite the
national prosperity; individuals and fami-
lies suffering for the bare necessities OF
life. They are as fit subjects for federal
succor as any people abroad.
During the war we made clothes for
Britain, collected raiment for many peo-
Piles, contributed more than all other ma
lions TO UNRRA, distributed food and grain
lavishly. And the gift was worthwhile.
But there is no sound reason why we
should overlook our own residents as piti-
fully in need as the residents Of any land
overrun by the nazis.
Why can't we do something for them?

WONDER QUESTIONS
WHAT is THE FASTEST
LIVING THING?

Man is the most intelligent OF
living things, but he certainly is
not the fastest. At his absolute
best, a man runs a little less than
q miles an hour, and this only
for a short distance. A dog grey
hound can run So miles per hour.
and horses have attained speeds
as high as 40 miles per hour. The
buck deer has been clicked at a
speed of nearly so miles an hour.
A still more surprising pace is
possible for the cheetah, a species
of hunting leopard. This creature
is credited with a top speed. for
a distance of 100 yards, of 70 miles
an hour. 1t is quite probably the
fastest four-footed animal in exist
ence.
1t is the birds that must be look
ed to for speeds in excess of 70
miles per hour. However, esti-
mates of flight speed cannot al
ways be accurate, and most fig
ures should be treated as approx
nations. The vulture is assigned
a top speed of SO miles an hour;
golden eagles can touch 100 miles
an hour.
The duck hawk, a species Of
falcon, is rated between 100 and
1870 miles an hour. This hawk
preys on ducks. themselves FAST in
flight, SO its vertical dive upon its
victim must be exceedingly fast to

PROPOSED MINIMUM WAGE LAW

In behalf Of the state wage and hour bill
1ow before the Senate at Raleigh it is
argued that the law, if enacted, would ex-
lend 10 workers in North Carolina the
same benefits that exist under the Fair
Labor Standards Act in interstate business.
To this extent, perhaps, there can be no
complaint.
But there is just complaint Of any law
which requires an employer 10 pay all
workers a uniform wage, as all workers
do not possess uniform skill. They are
not all capable Of uniform performance on
the job. They do not all have the same
inclination 10 produce.
The result is thai shirkers and idlers
would be receiving much more money than
they are worth and capable producers
less.
This was demonstrated in Industries
during the war period, when workers
were paid far above the federal minimum
wage but only some Of them actually
earned their pay and the balance were
content 10 watch them do il, giving little
themselves in return for the money they
received. There was complaint every
where that if all workers put out their
full effort war production would have
reached maximum totals, but because thew
did not bottlenecks and shortages were a
continual handicap.
II is true that 30 cents an hour is not
allvlng wage, nor can a forty-hour week
al this level Of pay support an Individual.
But If is equally true thai many persons
are moi worth even this small compensa-
lion. ]. employers are required TO pay
all workers at the lower level the same
wage both the employers and the hard
workers will be under a serious handicap.
Legislators at Raleigh are 10 be urged
10 consider carefully the burden the pro-
posed bill would place upon industry in
all its branches and the reliable workers
before they vote on if.

PRESIDENTIAL JUNKETIKC

President Truman is absent from
Washington SO frequently his critics
are calling him a gad-aboui. While if
may appear thai he goes junkeiing a
LOT, ii is 10 be considered that social af-
fairs have little to do with it. Thew
occupy the headlines, TO be sure, but
there are deeper reasons for most of his
journeys.
This Caribbean trip, for example, in.
cludeS visits 10 Puerto Rico and the Vir.
gin Islands. Conditions have been nom
to good in either for a long time.

HOUSING OR BONUS?

World War II veterans in the House OF Rep
resentatives, a reporter found on interviewing
60 Or 10 of them, strongly oppose a bonus
and strongly favor a housing program. That's
putting the two questions in sane relationship.
The outcome. however, may not be sane I'M
less veterans get much more housing without
much more delay.
If this Congress moves effectively to in
crease the supply of public and private apart
ments to rent, the clamor for a cash bonus
will grow weaker. If Congress and the adj
ministration continue only to tax brave new
housing instead of getting it built, many vet
Grams will become even more cynical thar
so many already are. If Congress Will moi
help provide what SO many of them need
most. more and more will decide to push
for the cash which Congress could prpbab''
be presumed into granting.
Housing would cost less than bonuses. Hous
ing fills a much greater, more genuine need

G. 0. P. BUDGET CUT

The decision Of Senate republicans TO
lop a billion and one-half dollars from the
proposed six billion dollar reduction in
President Truman's budget request shows
common sense in the partY's leadership.
With Senator Vandenberg, Taft and
White pointing out the folly Of disarm-
ing while world peace is still chimerical,
the smaller amount was approved, with
the object Of maintaining the armed forces
at effective strength.
The Sll,2O0,0 900 900 President Truman
had set up for the military establishment
cannot be appropriated if the ,tised
figures are accepted, but at least the
United States will not have TO lose its
place as a leading power in determining
what kind Of peace the world is TO get.
The lesser amount which now appears
10 stand a chance Of approval by Congress
for the next fiscal year undoubtedly will
prevent a uniform 20 per cent reduction
in personal income taxes and offer les:
general tax relief than the republicans hat
set as their goal following last Novem
ber's elections. The people can well con
sole themselves with the thought that eve1
hhoAnh they. must eaExV he heavy iQcapl
