The Tuberculosis Problem Today
! Where do we stand today on the
problem of preventing and control
ling tuberculosis?
This question is being asked in
every community in the United
States and will be asked again and
again between now and Christmas,
the closing date of the 46th annual
Christmas Seal Sale, which supports
the tuberculosis control work of the
5000 voluntary associations affili-
ated with the National tuberculosis
Association.
In brief, the answer is this: Tu-
berculosis today is being cured and
it is being prevented, but TB can
be fully controlled only with the
total cooperation of all the people
Because tuberculosis is a chronic,
communicable disease, which strikes
without obvious symptoms, it is one
of the major health problems in
the United States.
Since the first Christmas Seal Sale
in 1907, the death rate from tuber-
culosis has been reduced nearly go
per cent and 100000 lives have
been saved that would have been
lost had TB been permitted to kill
at the rate of half a century ago. The
death rate has been cut in two
since 1915, when it was 40 per 100,-
0OO tuberculosis has been forced
down from first to sixth among all
causes of death in this country.
The progress made has saved
many lives, but the concentrated
fight to control tuberculosis is only
just beginning. Look at these facts:
! 100000 persons have active tubercu-
losis in this country today. More
than $4,000 new cases are reported
every year. TB kills $4,000 Amer
leans a year, more than all other in
fictitious diseases combined. It kills
more persons between Is and 35
than any other disease. 1t kills
people of all ages. Even when it
doesn't kill, TB can destroy. It's toll
in human suffering, broken lives,
broken homes, cannot be measured.
To bring this vicious killer under
control is the work to which the
National tuberculosis Association
and the 5000 affiliated voluntary as
sociations are dedicated. They work
directly with the people, the medical
and nursing professions, and the of
fetal agencies, in every part of the

IN THAT CASE

A Republican candidate, in a
house-to-house canvass, was trying
to persuade a voter TO ballot tor
that ticket.
NO" said the voter, my father
was Democrat, and so was my
grandfather, and I won't vote any
thing but the Democratic ticket"
That's no argument, said the
candidate, suppose your father
and your grandmother had been
horse thieves; would that make
you a horse thief"
NO" came the answer, Il sup
pose in that case I'd be a Repub-
Gcan."

In informing individuals and COM

in working for improvement in ia

A Lesson

When Mark Twain edited a news
paper in Missouri, one of his sub
scribers wrote him that he had
found spider in his paper and
wished to know whether it meant
good luck or bad.
Twain replied: Finding a spider
in your paper is neither good luck
nor bad. The spider was merely
looking over our paper to see
which merchant was not adver-
Using, so that he could go to that
store, spin his web across the
door and lead life of undisturbed
peace ever afterward!"

friendly passenger, when he had
paid his fare, and I'll send you
out a drink"
In a short time a maid appeared
with tumbler of whisky and
water The iarvey took sip, then
he looked at the maid suspiciously.
Tell me now" he said, which
did you put in first, the whisky
or the water?"
1.-The whisky, of course, said
the maid Indignantly.
'Ah well, maybe I'll come to it
yet, at the bottom of the glass;"
replied the jarvey.

TIGHT SITUATION IN FRANCE

Prime Minister Antoine Pinay, of France, is steering
his country through of its most critical economic
crises At the present moment looks if the small bus
mess man. who wasn't given chance Of success when he
took office some months ago. might succeed in his sab
zaton effort.
In brief his efforts have consisted of request to the
unions to withhold higher wage demands until he could
prove that prices would 60 down. prices Decline the
unions basis for demanding higher wages will have been
wiped out Pnay's plan is based tremendous bond is
sue which he hopes Frances millions of gold hoarders
will respond to.
The bonds not redeemabe for gold, and that is
the only catch However the bonds guaranteed They
mature in sixty years and carry three and half cent
interest This income taxree and may be turned in
payment against direct taxes and when redeemed will
be valued at the par price and also premium price the
price of gold coin on the Paris market higher at the
time
In other words if the gold Napoleon tthe standard
coin on the Paris market should up thousand francs
the bonds would be redeemed at additional thousand
francs This of guarantee is far attractive to
buyers than the average interest guarantees usually of
fered by government
Since Pinay took office in France the franc has be-
come more desirable and more stable and there has been
shift gold into francs This shows that who have
been boarding gold have turned it in for francs having
gained confidence that the value of the franc wuld be
more stable than years However the gold price
will 60 up THAT 49, Will take more francs TO ouy an ounce
of gold) II prices begin climbing again IN France
Thus the main danger to Pinays government is the
danger Of initiation Pnay hopes pull in at least 200 bill
lion francs (about half billion doars) from the bond
issue he attempting to sell the French public. This
money will balance his budget and be used for buying
equipment and continuing reconstruction project in France
If il is forthcoming.
Failure of the bond issue might failure of the
Pinay program and the end of Pinays government in
France The outcome is not yet clear but it be said at
this time that Antoine Pnay has surprised his critics and
very close to what he had hoped do upon
taking office.

Marine Corps Magazine Features
Key Vest Detachment's Activity

Key West, says the author the
Marine has little in the way OF
pleasure during liberty, so he aims
for Miami. There, the article
points out, the Marine "can make
out IF he has three things in his
possession: money, currency and
cash. Marines who confine their
liberty excursions to Key West get
by only little cheaper than if they
had travelled to Miami. A bottle of
suds goes for either 40 cents or 65
cents depending upon whether you
prefer sawdust on the deck or car
pets.
According to the Leatherneck
story, Marines are targets for land
lords who bring their families here
and have to pay high rents. How
ever the new housing units will
ease the situation.
Lyons continues, 1.-The Marines
at Key West realize the town is a
resort. And, as such, they expect
to be gouged a bit, especially dur
ing the tourist season. The thing
they can't understand is why ser
vicemen seem to be classed as
tourists even when they're sta
toned permanently"
II was UNDERSIGNED in the write
up that 1t. Col. Charles D. Bar
rett, Jr., and his executive officer,
Capt. Willmar NJ. Bledsoe, set a
fine example for their Detachment
with the trim, spruce appearance
which has made the Key West out
fit one of the sharpest in the SER
vice. Besides appearance, Marines
here must show a conduct rating Of
at least As.
The contribution of the Marines
here to charity through the partici-
patton in the Navy Carnival is
lauded as it should be.
The story closes with this quote:
Despite the high prices, extra
working hours and constant pres
sure at Key West, there is one big
advantage for those who serve
there: the temperature averages a
comfortable IL degrees all year

THIS ROCK OF OURS

The solution to the problem
seems TO be larger police force.
1t is unfair to criticize the men
now on duty. There simply are not
enough of them to efficiently cover
the island.

at one time. Experience taught me
that it took either brave man
or fool to ride the highways

kind of men l think our local Off
GERS are. l do know that night
after night, the men are sent out
by themselves in police cruisers.
They are thrown into situations
that are unfair to themselves as
well as the public they are attempt
ing to protect.
We need more men on the police
force.
Fire Department
The Key West Fire Department
also needs more men and better
equipment. The machines carry
practically no chemicals, salvage
covers, rescue equipment, etc. And
if they carried these things, there
still would not be enough men 70
put them 10 use.
There should be minimum of
five men on every "first-call" ma
chine. AT present there is only one
man at the Poinciana Station and
Chief Leroy Torres can perhaps
muster three or four at each Of
the other stations.

Though | don't like TO see land
lords suffer because of poor rental
conditions. il is real pleasure Il
notice III the Citizen that many
more apartments and houses arr
now being offered for rent.
All last year it was pititul 10 see
the long lines of people waiting for
one of the first papers off the press
in the hopes that they might be
able to find a place to live. Some
of them were sleeping in cars. 9TH
ers under crowded conditions not
! fiji for an animal.
I remember one young service
man who didn't have much rating
and who also had not been married
very long. His wife was staying at
a motel but she finally had to go
up to Miami to find cheaper
room.
tThey told us there were plenty
of living quarters down here, the
sailor complained justifiably. But
they didn't say it was a resort
town and that prices would be so
high"
In recent weeks there have been
more than a thousand living units
open up in various projects all
over the island. So far it has not
drastically effected the prices COM
manded for house or apartment
but at least those who can afford
present prices can have a roof
over their heads.
Landlords have seen fit TO come
in several times and correct me on
statements concerning high rents.
THE price for an apartment or
house here in Key West is not out
of line with other places" they
argue. Perhaps they are right and
all I can suggest is that if what
they say is true, then other places
are allowed to charge too much
rent.
Violence in XIV
Violence seems to be the order
of the day here on The Rock.
II isn't a pleasant condition
though ! can hardly see any reason
to get excited about in. After all,
we're a seaport town and being
sort of at Lands End, we catch
more than our fair share of drift

The latter condition probably
accounts for the petty thievery we
have today something that was

that the town compares faVorably
