stern law enforcement, and t'hat
we must have. If law enforce

it must have the unqualified sup

Approximations Are Cut

The Interior Department re-
ceived large slash in this years
appropriation. The approximate 1C
percent cut given other appropria-
tions already acted upon this
year was greatly increased. The
Presidents request for slightly
more than $626 million for this
agency was sharply reduced. Near
ly $140 million was deducted be
fore it was sent to the Senate for
their action. This amounted to a
cut of approximately 22.4 percent
Civil Functions also took q
large cut this week when that bill
came up for consideration. This
bill covers the civil operations OF

work on rivers and harbors and

led the "pork-barrel" legislation,
as many legislators misuse this
bill as a means of getting special
programs for their Districts and
States. 1t is generally difficult to
reduce because Congressman do
not like to vote against other con-
gressmens' projects. However,
this year it was different. The
President requested nearly $500
million, which the House cut Dy

quickly as in the Ohio and Mis-

l received call from the Army
Engineers Flood Control Division
stating that their Detroit office
had been ordered into the area
and that $4,000 had been set
aside to stop the breaks in the
dikes. When the present emer-
gency ends we should determine
whose responsibility it is to build
strong dikes and maintain them.

whether it belongs with the in

should be settled.

Night Out

Saturday night was a lovely
night anywhere, but the loveliest
spot in town was AL I.ogun's Reau-
tiful Ocean Patio. Out there under
a midnight blue sky with frosty
diversified stars Blinking out mes
sages in morse, there was a feeling
of Joyous festivity not found too Of

Al has really done a top lob in
making the Patio THE dining and
dancing spot in town. A large can
vas screen has 2een erected On the
Simonten and Ocean side Of the
large patio where the Atlantic
ocean makes little gurgling noises.
This to keep out the stares of The
curious and the always almost too
cool breezes that play around after
dark. Then silhouetted against the
night sky, tall moderne towers with
soft radiant rainbow lights playing
on their square patterns. The large
tables and benches have been re-
arranged and more seating space
made. Adding tc the soft romantic
lights that make Of all ladies fairy

Then, to make the evening per-s
feet, a new Latin American dance
band came to the Patio Saturday
evening for it's initial appearance
in Key West. Skillfullv directed and
M. C. ed by Xxi, the local boy with
the big dreams, the melodies, latin
and american pleased all. A large
smooth area was available for dan
cling, and dance we did. Xxi also
entertained at the mike with his
pleasing and dangerous tenor,
which made the music, especially
the spanish music so much the nj

The patio was crowded, and

The service was fast and pleasant,
the cocktails were the best, and the
food was delicious. This reporter

a long stay, so that Key Wester7
