The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1951-06-09

The flaShbulb industry is Op-
Grating at an all-time high But
the demand has jumped from A
million in 1916 to 1872 million in
1850 And adding the demands of
the armed forces, the industry is
hard pressed to supply every
body.
However, while the supply is
getting short, so far it is being
stretched enough to supply every
body
Generally the equipment and
supplies that are scarce are the
ones the armed forces use, like
four by five inch cut film. Also
getting short are items that re
quire. priority materials, like
aluminium.
For instance, those aluminium
cans for movie reels are getting
hard to buy. Some manufacturers
are unable to complete assembly
of synchronizerS for lack of GER
tain parts.
But, in general, the materials
and equipment used by the armed
forces are not the ones widely
used by amateurs. So the conflict
is held TO a minimum.

More Militant Democracy Is Needed

THIS AMERICAN PEOPLE

BY Gerald w. Johnson. Harp,
1t is Mr.. Johnson's contention
that if western civilization is to
survive. every one of US has to
be George Washington. He
thinks our position today is not
unlike that of the infant re-
public. We. too. have fought a
desperate war and now are faced
with the task of bringing to-
gether separate nations. as our
forefathers had to reconcile the
States.
BY way of reinsurance for
this new era. he reviews the
basic ideas of the Founding
Fathers. pointing out that they
have proven to be both flexible
and durable. although at the
time they were advanced, it was
with fear and trembling. They
were bold. almost reckless ideas
at the time, he says. and democ-
racy still requires bold men to
maintain it.
The imperialism we have
been forced into need not end
in the disaster common to all
previous empires. A country
which has had the worlds first
government specifically found
ed to protect the rights of the
private citizen" could become,
in Mr.. Johnson's eyes. "a
school Of free nations and not
their jailer."
Throughout his brief. calm,
simply written reappraisal Of
the great documents that are
the foundation of our national
life, Mr.. johnson points out
that their authors expected
men to be better than they
had ever been before: braver.
more honest, more energetic.

and then was sent to the White
House for a term cut short by
his death. 1t is true he served

but as Mr.. Hamilton shows with
such incontrovertible evidence.
Gen. Taylor in that brief time
made his impact felt, not only
on the national scene, but in

the most critical issues any Pres

Taylor. although he was a
professional soldier for 40 years
and one of the Republics

planter who owned slaves. None
