DEsLIkEs U. S. SAILORS
AZ a e

As gesture of friendship" the
United States recently sent two destroyers
to Saigon, Indo- China The visit of the
ships was also taken as an indication of
suppoIt for the French-sponsored state
of Wet Nam
While the destroyers were in port the
Commanists organized an anti-American
demonstration, which included rioting in
which ahree persons were killed and more
than sixty injured, U. S. sailors were
'shoved around and students in all
school went on strike to protest police
action against The rioters. Our sailors were
refused Che use Of taxis and rick-shas and
more fious incidents were avoided by
cancel Eng the shore leave of the sailors.
Tie French, who recently turned over
the police system to the natives, think that
the riot demonstrated the present govern
ment'sinability to maintain security with
out French direction 1t is admitted that
the demonstration revealed greater
strength for the Communists, even in
Saigons than had been estimated.

| have been reading and hear
ing a great deal about zoning and
laws pertaining to that import
ant subject. Likewise the matter
of painting up around and about
the town and the various projects
aimed at peautifying the Island
City.
Any number. of tourists and
newcomers zip about the I'm
painted houses, and majority
of native Key Westers wax more
than somewhat unhappy about
the inroads that modern ,architec-
ture is making upon the looks Of
our town.
Like the weather, a lot CT peo-
pie talk about it, but nobody
seems to do anything about it.
It was back in s45, sas l re-
member, that Marjorie Stone
man Douglass, after visit here,
wrote an article in mainland
paper. / disremember the title,
but the gist of her plea was, "Oh,
please, please, Key West, what
ever you do, do not lose your
quaint and rustic charm, your
quaint and appealing old world
atmosphere"
The lady had something there.
/ don't believe any OF ts wants
to see Key West change its face
and wind up looking like eEsry
other South Florida resort town.
Neither dc we want tosFetard
the growth and progress Of our
town. We ARE growing, expand
ing and prospecting. We can not
afford to stop ambitious men
and women from investing
money and making improvements
and building structures and
launching new business enter
prises.
Progress and expansion can not
be stopped and should MOI be,
but it CAN be controlled.
Now lets face it. More and
more people pour into this city
every year. The tourist trade is
pretty important source of
revenue to everyone in town. It
should be cultivated twelve
months year.
What brings people to Key
West? Well. we have the finest
climate in the United States. We
have fishing grounds comparable
to any in the world. And Key
West is a quaint. oId-worldish
town, with an appeal quite diff
refent from any town in the
United States" Yeah, we got
history and tradition and a lot
of romance. We got pretty nice
set-up.
So wha. are we going to dc
about it? Right now the situation
is by way of being loused up, to
use an old French cliche. People
are arguing about coming and
WHERE they can build and
WHAT they can build. Now,
believe we need a lot of buildl
ing. but why hasn't some genius
thought Of HOW TO BULL Dr.,
What we need is a building
law, full of good, legal teeth. If
a man wants to build a motel,
for example, he should have to
comply with law designating
that the exterior of his motel
blend with the general Bahama
type architecture of the old Key
West homes. His interior can be
steel and chromium or platinum,
ii he likes it that way. and ] am
not the man to go about advis4
ing men about their interiors.
But / am pretty much concerned
about the general appearance Of
the town.
Architects can be gathered to-
gether to formulate an accepted

There was once al mighty king
who bestowed a princely reward
upon every barber who gave him
good shave. But if the barber
drew so much as one drop OF
blood from him, he had the un-
fortunate man beheaded.
One day a new barber gave
the king a most excellent shave
and received his rich reward.

Continued from, Page One) depot.
 The depot, set up to supply the entire Alaskan theater, is de- scribed as never having operated above 30 per cent of planned ca pacity. Within a short time, the military expects the warehouse capacity to provide a full supply for Alaska forces for a several months period without replenish- ing from outside.
 Col. Voris H. Conner, who will be chief of staff of the Second Tank Force at Richardson, cOm- mented that new construction during the coming year will ''have contractors pusing each other out of the way to get their work done," so varied is the scope of the proposed wark.
 Besides barracks and nVlnS quarters, the army will build a new telephone exchange, steam power plant, water supply sys- tenn. sewer system, paved roads, a postoffice a sub-hospital and dispensaries, shops and other buildings.
 The combined Richardson-El- mendorf installation will, say military authorities, rank with the largest installations in the states.
 Similar projects in the Fair banks area, where both Ladd and Eielson Air Force Bases are To- cated, will provide additional quarters for troops now held in camps in the States. They are ex- pected to come to the north in the near future.
