Museum II
MAyteWo
BY SUE JONES,

Key Vests own museum at East
Martello Gallery, on South Roose-
welt Boulevard near the air port,
has many things Of interest to re-
sidents as well as visitors.
There are some very good paint
ings of Key West scenes done by
artists who know and love Key
West; there are relics from the
battleship Maine" and DR.. Mudd's
tea set.
The tea set, loaned to the gal
lery by Mrs. E.. L. Newton, was
a family heirloom belonging to the
Doctors wife.
She gave it to the supervisor of
Fort Jefferson who had cared for
the doctor during his imprison-
ment there.
The museum, housed in the pre-
Civil war fort, is unique in that
It contains only articles from in
and around Key West. Some of
these are priceless family heir
looms loaned to the museum by
old Key West families.
In the past few years, the Art
and Historical Society has been
hard at work restoring and beau
tifying the tower and it is now one
Of the most charming spots on the
Island.
The group has managed to mod
ernize the old structure without
losing any of its unusual atmos-
phere.
The name "Martello Tower" has
long been used to designate mas
onary forts built chiefly on sea-
coasts, generally with thick walls
and entrances high off the ground.
Forts of this particular type were
bull along the south and west
shores of England and on the Eu-
ropean continent as early as 1541.
The actual construction Of both
East Martello and West Martello
- at the Monroe County Beach -
was begin in 1861.
They were designed to protect
the rear Of Fort Taylor and to COM
bat landing forces.
Neither Of the towers were COM
pleted as modern Naval armament
with exploding shells came into
use during the War Between The
States and made them obsolete.
A photostat of the original en-
gineer's drawings hangs in the lob
by of the gallery. 1t was made
from drawings still on file at the
War Department in Washington,
d. c.
The bricks used in the construc-
ton of the forts were brought to
Key West from Pensacola after it
was discovered that northern
bricks were too soft to withstand
the action of salt spray and high
winds.
East Martello became the pro-
perry of the US Navy and during
World War II, searchlight towers
were erected on the old building.
The Art and Historical Society
has a revocable permit to use hte
structure for an art gallery and
historical museum.
The Tower is closed for further
"face lifting" at the present but
will reopen in November, accord
ing to Jeanne Taylor, curator.

Ed Ciesinski came here from
Chicago in 1888 and he's been here
ever since, working under water.
But even before he left Chicago,
where he worked as a tool and
die maker, Ed was interested in
diving.

Today, Ed is rated as one of the
eountry's top underwater men.
That's not Ciesinski's opinion of

College Club

ST. LOUISA long standing dis
pute between two factions of the
College Club of St. Louis, over the
admission of Negro women grad
yates and property rights, last
week resulted in a court ruling in
favor of the group opposed to the
admission of Negroes.
Circuit Judge Robert J. Kirk
wood isued the ruling in favor of
majority faction, now known as the
College Club of ST. Louis, Inc, and
upheld retention of property rights
by the group.
The minority group, which fav-
ored admission of Negroes, had
brought suit for an injunction
against the former group to gain
possession of the local clubhouse.
A few Negroes are members of the
latter group.
Judge Kirkwood stated in his de-
cision that the plaintiffs sought to
have the court require the men,
bership to take proceedings in ac-
cOrdance with desires of the mi
nority rather than the majority.
The club split on the question of
admitting Negroes in 1949.

He also recalled that he had

1t was on his recommendation
that the General Assembly sub

such system.

is to make the flathead screw flush

There are few wood joints

COLUMBIA, S. C.-GOV. James

who, along with Gov. Herman Tai
madge of Georgia, has been threat
ening to abolish the public school
system of his state. last week said
that South Carolina must in good
faith try to operate within the

decision banning segregation in
public schools of the nation.

But this is not true Of all Of them.
Many of them seem to like to be with
other cats, and never in whole n1e-
time show the slightest jealousy.
Talented birds. as our correspondent
calls them, also respond to the territory
theory.
This says that given space can only
feed so many birds, and that the birds
know it.
For some strange reason, it seems to
apply only to other birds OF the same
species, not to different species.
Yet all birds use essentially the same
insects and small worms as "baby food"
So the territorial theory may be ac-,
cepted with some reservations.
There is no reason why, II human
beings can crowd themselves into apart
ment houses. birds cannot occupy the
same tree together.
Some Of them do. Of course; the pur-
pie martins love to crowd together in
the houses atop long poles. They are
sociable creatures, and like to perch
on their little verandas and talk" to
each other.
The birds, as a group, with few
exceptions, such as the hawks and a
few others, get along very well together.

Unions Blomed for High Prices

Many people are speculating as to
whether we are going to have another
depression in this country. Well, those
who control labor unions of our coun-
try are doing all they can to bring on.
not only depression, but such bust
up as we have never had before. While
already getting several times as much
as they should, they keep demanding
and striking for higher wages and get
ting them. Those who are getting big
wages can pay the prices that have
been raised in proportion to wage in
cfeases, but those would-be consumers
who are not in the unions cannot pay
such high prices, SO the factories are
going to get overstocked with goods
they cannot sell and must close down.
putting thousands. yes millions, out OF
work. AS of now, about the only sala-
ried working -clasS people who can af-
ford to buy such things as homes. cars,
ETC., or for that matter, in most in
stances, the necessities Of life. are mem
bers of labor unions.
Labor has come long way in the
last 30-odd years but its apparent in
ability to know when to stop will
destroy the many years of success.
The unionists credit themselves for the
high standard of living in America.
Well, the standard of living has risen,
in fact, so high that we non-union
members hope it doesn't rise any
higher, because we can't stand it now.
