US. PUBLIC DEBT

At the end of 1852 the public debt of the United
States Government approximately $685. 900 Oo0
This total compared with $259221, OOOO which was
owed by the Government at the end of 1851
It is interesting to note that in the seven and onehaf
years that President Truman the White House. the
natonal debt $S298,OOOO OO Had the Korean War
netoccured, is likely that President Truman would
have wound his tenure in the White House in the black
In three OF the seven and oneaf years he was President
the government collected more money than spent Those
years were 1947, 1948, and 1851. Ef
$50 President Truman often boasted before the Korean
War; that during his term in the White House. the Govern
en had reduced the total Of the national debt slightly
Final figures the gross public debt of the Government
show he would probably have been able to back up this
BOAST had not the Korean War began in June, 1850.
Largely as aresut of this conflict the debt rose from
about $258 500 100000 (when Mr. Truman became Pres
dent to approximately 100000, at the end of
1852.

THIS ROCK OF OURS
BY BILL GLIB

A couple of days ago this column
said City Commissioner Delaney
had shown a modicum of common
sense with regard to the B-girl
ordinance. Afterwards, Jack and
| were talking and he looked at
me with a hurt, reproachful gaze.
BILL" he said, "most of the
time | don't mind what you call
me but that word 'modicum' -
what's it mean, anyhow"
My answer to Jack sort of eased
his feelings because told him:
Il don't know for sure what it
means but it had pretty sound
and l figured a lot of people
would think was intelligent to
use big words like that"
Later l looked the word "modi-
cum" up in the dictionary. 1t said:
"A moderate or limited amount. I"
Heck! Jack Delaney should be
proud! 1t is seldom that this
column gives any city commission
er credit for having a Limited
amount of common sense" He
should even get a special Job
created for my benefit. Just a
hint, Jack, but / would like to be
Inspector of the Inspectors. +"
Since don't like work myself,
don't want to supervise a crowd
of guys who are laboring too hard.
Delaney also told me that most
of his candidate pledges had been
fulfilled or were in the course of
being completed. He named such
things as sidewalk improvement,
sewage, etc. If Jacks statement
is correct, Il didn't have time to
check it completely, he should be
congratulated.
'How about the utility taxi" /
asked him.
THAT wasn't in my pledge to
the voters" he answered. "And
besides, / wasn't the one who pro-
posed it."
Apparently. the proposed utility
tax has died a natural death but
I'm not too sure. For months I've
expected to see it crop up again
and be passed Unexpectedly be-
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1953-01-31

fore opposition would have q
chance to organize. The City needs
money. A utility tax isn't the way
to get it though. Especially i
Dave Kings suggestion is follow
ed: the tax viii be graduated so
that those who use utilities most
viii be bracketed to pay the low
est percentage of taxes. That
throws the complete burden on the
little man. How many Of US are
paying for water that we never
get? If we have to start paying
taxes for some wealthy persons
eonvenienceS, it will be the final
straw.
Korea
High ranking officers in Korea
are having a rather hot time with
Congress. The accusation that these
officers have turned the war into
a theater for entertainment seems
absurd. We might go further than
that and say that the entire situa-
ton smells like a piece, of expert
propaganda turned loose by the
Reds. Certainly anyone who be-
lieves the talk Is going to lose
faith and confidence in our govern
ment.
Officers = either in the Army or
the Navy - are human beings. They
can make mistakes. Their jobs al.
so call for performances at times
which appear to the public to be
a mistake but are actually part Of
a far-reaching plan. I've never
held with the theory that ''all off,
GERS are gentlemen. We have too
much proof to the contrary. How
ever, do believe that the vast
majority of leaders in our Armed
Service are intelligent, brave, and
ambitious. For General Clark or
any other leader to needlessly
sacrifice American lives would
automatically eliminate one or
more of these characteristics.
Time viii explain the Korean
situation but Congressional leaders
have already done irreparabla
harm to this country's morale BIZ
shooting their mouth Off before
they had all the facts.

THE CONCH OBSERVES
BY SID MePHID

"You can't fool me, Sir Sid Nc
Phid;
I know you as the merry jester
Who wears a fetching, rankish
lid
That is to say, old boy Lance
Lester"
All Of which is a depression
from the title of these paragraphs,
Conch Pedigree, which concerns an
old college chump of mine, Mr..
Jim Koodles de Flu.
Dear Sidonius: Who is this Jim
Noodle de Flu? Is he Conch-
konian or is he Frenchy?
I'm surprised, Pete, you don't
know Jim, because you've been a
trueblue Conch, as he has been,
since we caught goats in Billy
Goat Alley to 60 for an afternoon
canter. (Ah, Petronious, give me
back those days, and you can have
all the gold in Fort Knox. They
were the days when we chased
King Kongo up Grinnell Street and
made him yell for maternal pro-
lection; they were the days when
we went swimming in Mrs.
Natures bathing suits and came
out Of the water to find our clothes
tied in a hundred knots; they were
the days when we ran 10 miles
while we played Ten Yards, but
grumbled when we had to 60 a
lO-foot errand. Take all Fort Knox's
gold, and give me just an hour
playing marbles again with Kid
Ugly or Pa Donkey.
Tell me, Pete, why don't Time
60 backward once in awhile
to let US feel again the surge of
youth?
How to Succeed
II you want to make your mark
in life, stay up the greater part of
the night and sleep till late in the
day.
Always remain ignorant of the
fact that the nickels and dimes
you waste are component parts Of
many, many dollars.
Work only to get your pay enve.
lope and disregard entirely the in
terests Of your employer.
Make 1t point to sidetrack the
difficult things in your work and
Shunt them on the other fellow.
Let your motto be, 81 can't do
that" and live consistently up to
il.

Dear Sidonius:
Elsie assures me the older they
come the more she loves them.
She says she wishes / was 100,
instead Of only 81.

urges him to stock up on alliga-
tor esgs Why, oh, Why? The WHY.
