Seems that the question is about
to arise as to whether our COM
mercial charter boatmen should be
allowed to make a living here in
Key West. The cupboard racers
that occasionally use Garrison
Blight are apparently of the opin-
ion they own the place.
At last Sundays races, a COM
plant was registered and some.
how it got into the newspaper as
an actual fact, that the charter
boat Lucky Strike" had caused
an accident by crossing the race
course. The wake of the boat was
suppose to have swamped John
McKillip, Jr.
There are no facts to support any
definite claim. Everything can en-
ly revert to opinion and personally,
Pm inclined to think that it posi-
bly, could have been poor boatman-
ship on the part of the racer
that caused the accident.
The Lucky Strike" leaves less
wake than most of the boats in
Garrison Blight, experts tell me.
Moreover, witnesses say that she
came in at slow speed and the ra-
GERS were travelling in the oppo-
site direction. The fact that she
crossed the course at all seems to
irritate members of the cupboard
club. Let's examine the situation
and then you decide what you
would do.
Operating a charter boat is a
commercial proposition. 1t means
bread in the boat-owner' mouth.
A home for his family. He gets
fifty dollars per day for the use
of his boat and he also contracts
to get his party back safely and
on schedule. That last word "sche-
dule" is important. II the fishing
party has an appointment or ex-
poets to leave for Miami at a Ger
tain,time in the evening, they don t
want to lie around outside the
Blight for a couple of hours waiting
while racers block off the main
| channel.
Don't let my words mislead you.
I'm not against cupboard racing.

ATTACKS ON PUBLIC OFFICIALS

This situation holds true in most charges and replies

The problem Of finding no noise

Unless Key West is full Of para

for the discrepancy between what

evening-long, ceaseless (and sense

IS Ahepa Convention
In Athens Suggested in
President S Report

Supreme President Peter L. Bell
of the Order of Ahepa yesterday
suggested that the 1855 conven-
ton be held in Athens, Greece.
The group is in week-long con-
vention in the Hotel Statler.
Mr.. Bell said the 1855 conven-
ton might be held in the Parlia-
ment House in Athens. In submit
ting his annual report. he also
suggested a visit to the Patriarch
lat Istanbul as part Of the pro-
gram. Visits to Salonica and other
leading cities of Greece, with the
King and Queen at the opening
ceremonies, also were envisioned.
"This will give the opportunity
to a tremendous number of our
second generation to visit Greece
to see the glories that were
Greece and the brave and stalwart
people that are Greece" Mr. Bell
told the convention.
New Ritual Being Written.
Mr.. Bell said Frank S. Land,
founder and secretary-general of
the Order of De Molay. is writing
Ia new Ahepa ritual. Mr.. Bell said
the ancient myth about the Golden
Fleece would be a main theme or
symbol Of the first part of the
work.
He blQntly told the convention
that "the ritualistic work has be-
come haphazard, to say the least.
in many of our chapters"
"We have been far from Sue
cessful in selling the Ahepa to
our own members and the Greek
Americans generally" he said.
1--WE have done a bad public re-
lations job among our own people.
Our relations with the Greek
press have not always been pleas
ant"
"It Is true that the Greek press
has not always been on our side.
But it is equally true that we have
not always helped and supported
them. Ahepa's best interests, as
well as those of the Greek press,
make it necessary that we CO.
operate and support and not fight
or even ignore each other"
