SUNSHINE AND WARMTH


Yesterday morning from Z t. s osclock
i appeared thar me ~erdsrT Peter s,
Roberts. the piscatorial philosopher. had
sent % Sears RoebRck for snnshinx wealth
er for President Truman, had gone astray
For tine Il seemed that Key West Vas in
for rainy day
Frankly, The Citizen regrets that The
appearance did net turn out fe be true.
Further. We believe that the President
would have SIDED with Us. IN entertaining
that hope. when we told him that rainfall
u Key West since the first Of 1he year Is
2-46 below normal Regardless Of the
value q Sunshine, we don't want il al the
time. Tor i would not be long before Key
Vests beautiful trees, plants and flowers
would e burned up.
Vegetation Is thirsty in Key West. and
we trust that thirst win be satisfied. sTru-
man weather" il the President had any
thing 80 do with Il, would include rain IS
wei as sunshine.
OF one thing the President may be sure
during his stay in Key West. Is that. in
event We get n0rsher while he Is here. the
temperature here viii be higher than that
IN any ether CITY in the United States This
i his SIKH visit here. and during that tine.
with enc exception. sunshine has been as
plentiful rs ANYBODY could have wished.
That exception was rainy Sunday morn
ing when Key West was given q typical
tropical shower The rain did not interfere
with the Presidents program on that day.
In the morning. while lightning flashed
and thunder grunbled. he rode to the First
Baptist Church 20 attend services
Finally. the piscatoriaI philosophers
order" for good weather is pretty well in
the realm of certainty during the winter
season. Rains are light and infrequent
during that time. and the President may be
assured Of weather to his liking when he
visits here in search Of sunshine, warmth
and recreation.

RUSSIA PERPETUATEs SLAVERY

The United Nations Economic and
Social Council debates the charge. that
Russia Is guilty Of holding millions of men
and women in slave labor camps
American delegates and others repre-
senting the Western nations of Euroue
presented the charge, which has been i'm
plemented by mass of sworn testimony
presented by the American Federation of
Labor, which seeks to show the existence
Of slave labor conditions in Russia. The
statements come from former inmates of
Soviet labor camps.
The Russians, of course, deny that
they operate such camps and insist that the
workers Of the United States perform
slave labor" The suggestion that the
International Labor Organization send
investigators into Russia was rejected by
Russia. with the condensation that
u represented scheme Of the United
States to get intelligence agents into
Soviet areas
II Is practically impossible TO get ac-
eurate information as to the policies of
Soviet Russia but there is abundant
ground for suspicion that the Commun-
lists do not hesitate to put their adversar-
les into forced labor battalions. Just
how the members of these battalions
fare. in the matter of food and living
conditions. il unknown. In addition, it is
generally believed that Russia holds hun

In what amounts to forced labor.

II might be good idea, in connection
with discussions about the proposed North
Atlantic Security Pact to understand that
rs prime purpose is not to prepare for
war with Russia but to deter Russia from
aggression and thus prevent war.
The idea is general in Western Eu-
rope that the Russians will not attack the
countries Of Western Europe If Moscow
knows that the United States will i'm
medlstely come in On the side of the ma
tons stacked. II this is made abundantly
clear 10 the Russian leaders, the leaders
seem 10 be confident that no war is in the
making.

Subsurface PlOws
Advocated

LUBBOCK, Tex tP) -Ploughs
tslat work only underneath the sur
face are advocated to stop soil ero-
sion by DR.. A. W. Young, head Of
the plant industry department Of
Texas Technological College.
These plOws have chisel noses
and underground blades to cut the
subsoil on each side. They leave IN
place the stubble Of previous crops.
Every BIT Of stubble or any other
crop residue left with its roots In
a field, says DR.. Young, is both a
natural wind break and a water
dam.
The stubble binds the top soil
from blowing away as dust, and
from eroding in water. The stubble
also furnishes little pipes down
which rain water penetrates into
the soil instead of mostly running
off the surface. As the stubble de-
composes, it furnishes a sort of
binding cement to hold soil particl-
es more firmly in place.
