This Rock
Of Ours
By Bill Glib

There has been no scandal during
ToWnerS stay here and except fol
the usual complaints of politicians
and the whining of 'get-rich-quick
bar owners, public relations have
reached an all-time high.
Towner hasn't been perfect by
long shot. 1 doubt seriously that
we'll find the new admiral, Hen.
derson, to be any modern dag
Jesus either. We might make up
our minds now, however, to give
Henderson a little more under,
standing and cooperation than we
have given past Commanding Off
GERS.
If I've written it once, I've writ
ten it a thousand times - the life
of Key West is dependent upon the
Navy. The Conch insularity that
has been so prevalent in the past
must be eliminated. Tourists,
shrimp, or what have you, come
and go just as our sponging, cigar
factories and wreck salvaging bus
inesses did in the past. The Navy
is here to stay! - CAT least, it'll
stay if we don't drive it away.)

WASHINGTON R-Sen. Bridges
GRIND says that it is not true
that the Eisenhower administration
plans to propose for Asia a big
program of economic aid pat

Plan for Europe.
Similarly, a high administration
counselor. who asked not to be

had agreed on a further shift IN
foreign aid policy - aside from

dollar grants toward lending and
investment with a little glveaway

A COP lawmaker who attended

Harold E. Stassen had talked or
iginally in terms Of an Asian aid
program running into the billions,

The policy adviser to the admin

range effort to win the allegianc

Details of the new program are

Lieutenant Urech of the Shore
Patrol made it possible for me to
meet Admiral Towner the other
day. AS you know, Towner is sche-
duled to be transferred next month
- Admiral Henderson will assume
command of the local Navy es-
tablishment.
Judging from reports, l was
quite prepared to meet a two-faced
ogre whose greatest delight in life
was to confuse, contradict, and
frustrate newspapermen. Instead,
l found a typical American busi-
nessman - a little too busy to be
able to waste time on curiosity
seeker such as myself but yet, a
little too courteous to deny me an
interview.
There are some who might be
provoked at Admiral ToWner'S re-
ticence. For instance, he didn't tell
me the secrets of the atom bomb.
And there must be other military
secrets on the Base which we news
paper guys would like to exploit.
Perhaps l ought to condemn him
for this secrecy. huh?
Towner appeared quite concern
ed about the slow response to Com
munity Chest appeals. There was
no indication on his part that he
desired anything more from Key
West than cordial public relations
between Navy and civilian person
mel. And with regard to the Mea'
cham Airport controversy, he jus.
titled his previous actions and cited
adverse publicity as being one OF
the main reasons for the misun'
derstandings which arose at that
time.
Rough Job
"Tll buy most of what the Ad-
miral says. If you or l think SEN
sibly about his job, we'll realize
that he has had a tough row to
hoe l don't think any man could
have accomplished his mission bet
ter than Admiral Towner has In

the basic principles in the old constitution will remain in

One object that acuates the committee in its efforts
to draw up and have adopted constitution would
enhance state rights AS the committee points out Flor

Many Key Westers, we'll many Floridians in

roads for other projects only side of the pic
ture obtaining the money from Washington. They
think the money is something of bonanza They do not
realize it taxpayers money, of which

Another matter of greater consequence is that they
do not realize that the money the federal govern

from them. It is remndfu of the old days in Key West

= As Matters Stand
Joe Breig Says.
Learn From The Reds

Communist will come out for bet
ter housing. or for the rights of la
Dor, but he comes with dirty
hands.
All the good things he processes
to support, he supports not because
the things are good, but because
he wants to influence people in
the direction of communism.
am speaking, mind you, of the
real Communist; the Communist
who knows what communism is.
That kind of Communist has one
test of what is good or bad.
If a thing leads toward the tri-
umph of communism ~ the con-
quest of the world for communism
then to the real Communist that
thing is good. He doesn't care
whether it be murder or play
grounds for children.
And if thing interferes with
the advance of communism, then
that thing is bad. The Communist
dissembies, double-talks and pre-
varicates; but what moves him is
his desire TO serve atheistic com
mHRism.
The Communists motives are
bad, and the Communist deep
down inside is dishonest. He poses
as something that he isn't, and con
ceals from you what he really is,
and what he wants
That kind of behavior makes me
examine my own motives, and to
make sure that they are pure and
honest and unselfish. So do | be-
come, little by little, a wiser and
better man.
Then | look at the Communist
methods The Communist, when he
is an underdog, is polite. When he
is top dog, he is abusive and bully
ing.

Communist behaves that | must not
behave in that fashion. | must not,

Communist.
Finally, from the Communist |
learn that communism is a mono

into the vacuum left by the alb
Sence of justice and goodness. And
so | know what is the successful
method OF overcoming commun.
ism. The successful method is to
put right what is wrong on earth
in other words, to love and serve
God and my neighbor. That's the
