Have you ever noticed the fire
bell atop of the City Hall!
To get up there you have to g
on rickety iron steps through the
tower. You pass the machinery O
the big town clock and then clint
a perpendicular ladder for the last
twelve or fourteen feet.
Ellis Finch and I were stumped

terday so we climed up to the bell
to see if the birds might have
something to tell us.

big bell?
"Wadell's Gift To The Key West
Fire Department, May Is, 1887.
Also, the name of the company
that made the bell "Meneely and
Co., West Troy, N. ", 1887. /"
I've been trying to get some
information on Waddell. He must
be the same guy for whom Waddell
st. was named.
Mrs. Jennie DeBoer tells me that
she remembers a James Waddell.
He was connected with the Florida
East Coast Railway when it was
being build and also was a partner
in an investment business.
The man certainly must have
been civic minded because even in
those days of low prices, a huge
bell the size of the one on City
Hall must have cost a nice sum of
money.
After all this time approximately
sixty-five years of striking each
hour as well as fire alarms, there
is only a slight shiny spot where
the hammer hits the outside rim.
However, / wonder how
safe it is to have such a heavy
weight on the old rotten timbers
of the City Hall. One of these
days it is likely to come bouncing
down here into the Citizen Office.

NO KEY WEST POLITICIAN HAS

attitude on that question when he not running for

But don't think that candidates trying to please
everybody is confined to local politics Key Westers have

when they knew his views about the cause were just
the when he not looking for votes What has
been done locally has been done frequently national

has there been glarng flipfop Eisenhowers
advocating more and better Social Security
What were Eisenhower's views Social Security
when he was president of Columbia University and
still getting his salary retired five-star general and
presumably salary as head of the university?
Oscar r. Ewing, Federal Security administrator, has
told the American public how Eisenhower felt about old
age security at that time Here is what Eisenhower sad
'If all Americans want security than they go
to prison. They'll have enough to eat bed, and roof
their heads"
As Eisenhower was not running for President then,
it fair to presume he said conscenousy what he real

now, with the White House cleaning in the offng he all

pensions, increasing Social Security payments and
pandng it to include Id million workers in callngs not

How aspiration for political office softens mans

higher powers even before his
birth?
The possibility that they are
merely pawns of fate has interest
ed fools and philosophers since
men first looked up at the stars
and asked the eternal "Why?"
A baby falls from seventh floor

bles two floors and dies. Why? Is
it doom or chance?
The other day a transient, sleep
ing 80 feet from a.road, was killed
when a passing car was forced off
the highway and ran over him in
the dark. Probably no man had
mapped at that exact spot since the
beginning of time. And no car
wheel had passed over it. What
brought man and vehicle disas-
trously together at the exact mo-
ment chance or destiny?
Life is full of such mishaps, and
many people say, well, it was
just in the cards" or Everything

ever, / never knew a fellow like
that who didn't duck like every

ALI of which is preamble for a
true-life story that has just come
to our desk-an eerie little happen
ing that DeMaupassant or o. Henry
might have fashioned into a ma
cabre tale.
The setting is in that continent
of darkness - Africa. And the
events were brought out at an in
quest court in Salisbury, South
Africa, which was investigating the
death leap of a native fisherman
into a river infested with croco-
dies.
The fisherman was named Mu-
dungwe. One day while fishing in
the river he was seized by a croco-
die. His right arm held helpless
in the reptiles paw, Mudungwe
saved himself by drawing his
sheath knife with his left hand and
Slashing the crocodile's eyes.
But hospital doctors had to am
putate Mudungwe's right arm.
| The crippled fisherman in time
returned to his task, fishing the
same river. Years later he again
was seized by q crocodile. This
time he was rescued by a com.
! panion who stabbed the crocodile
with spear.
At the hospital doctors amputat-
ed Mudungwe's left arm. /.
Returning to his village, he re.
fused to eat or talk and sat alone,
brooding.
One day he jumped up, mutter.
ing, Crocodile calling me, croco.
die calling me-" He ran to the
river. leaped in, and was imme.
diately dragged under and killed
by a crocodile.
A policeman, summoned by the
villagers, shot the reptile to death.
When the villagers hauled it out,
they were awed to find it wa:
blind in both eyes and bore the
scars of spear wounds on its body,
The duel between Mudungwe and
brought them together three times?

1t seems that in the past Navy

to play golf free, financially that

The wives, however, or depend

NEW 4ORk R - AIT frelgnI
service across the Atlantic will be
stepped up next month. The COM
petition grows keener as American
planes strive to catch up with for
eign carriers who have been cut
ting in on the dollar-rich business.
New all-cargo flights are being
added by Pan American and Trans
World Airlines after Labor Day.
Seaboard and Western, largest
transatlantic all freight carrier,
has on order four Lockheed Super
Consultations, each of which will
be able to lift Is tons of freight
across the ocean when they go
into operation in 1854.
Foreign competitors aren't idle
either.
The Royal Dutch Airline, kim,
made great strides during 1851. At
that time the American-owned Sea-
board & Western was increasing
its albright service, but TWA
and Pan Am were carrying cargo
only in passenger planes. ALI three
of the American lines had cargo
planes tied up in the Tokyo airlift
for the Korean War.
me first of this year Pan Am
started a once-a-week all-cargo
flight, leasing a Slick Anyways
plane for the flights.
The Dutch are expanding their
service too. They hope to add a
new air freighter to their fleet by
! the end of the year. They report
/ their transatlantic freight tonnage
is running II per cent higher than
1 a year ago. Service now is on a
three times a week basis.
SAS, the Scandinavian line, also
stepped up ALBRIGHT service last
year. Belgian and French carriers
are in there, too, carrying cargo
and earning dollars.
Pan Am reports that its one all
freight plane since the first of the
year carried 26 per cent of the
cargo the line lifts across the At
lantic. The remainder, mostly ex-
press, was tucked into passenger
planes. The new cargo plane helped
Pan Am lift its total cargo volume
/ by q per cent this year. In the
/ first seven months it carried g.
344,746 pounds of freight and ex-
press, compared with 1880, $50 in
the same period a year ago.
Seaboard & Western reports its
westbound traffic has picked up SO
per cent this year compared with
last, while its eastbound cargo has
remained about the same. The line
lifted 100000 pounds of freight
across the ocean in the first six
months. 1t carries only freight,
no express.
+ kim, reporting for the first
three months of the year, says its
freight business increased from
1883 tons year ago to 3,438 tons
in the 1852 first quarter.
Air-freight cargoes tap a varied
field.
Seaboard & Western, which
started ALBRIGHT operations be-
tween the United States and West
ern Europe and the Middle East
in May, 1947, lifts heavy pieces Of
equipment weighing up to seven
tons.
Included in its cargos have been
autos and trucks, ships parts, air
craft engines, small aircraft, hell
copters, machine tools, electrical
and other industrial equipment
all flown to places where they
were wanted in a hurry.
The line has also carried blooded
horses, cattle and tropical animal.
such as elephants. And it has had
profitable business in carrying
multi-ton shipments Of textiles and
wearing apparel.
