Everything — But at a Price By PAUL HARVEY I know of an island in the sun where a man can get away from it all. An island where the trade winds are soft and warm most of the year. Shelters, already pre pared, are adequate for comfort during the rainy season. The Spanish who first dropped anchor on the wind ward side called it “Isle of the Pelicans.” Americans may now go there, take up residence. If you apply properly, and if you intend to make the island your permanent home, our government will pro vide transportation free. It used to be that a man dreamed of faraway is lands because the seas seemed to separate him from whatever it was he wanted to leave behind. In an era of jet travel, Samoa and the Fijis are no more remote than the Caribbean. So it makes no sense to go to the other side of the world if there is a similar environment available in a handier hemisphere. Actually, this island of which I speak is close enough to afford a view of the mainland of the United States; majestic by day, jeweled by night. The island has 336 permanent guest rooms with running water, toilet facilities, comfortable beds — rent free! On this island in the sun you may work if you like. You may do absolutely nothing if you prefer. There is enough food. Not fancy, but wholesome and nourishing and adequate. Drinking water is a problem on some islands; not on this one. The water is pure. The guest rooms are wired for electricity, and this utility is also free to all islanders. There are garden plots on which you can grow vegetables, flowers. There is a library filled with 15,000 volumes, more than you could read in a lifetime. These, too, are avail able to you free. The mail boat arrives and departs on a reasonably regular schedule so that you can share your island adventure with friends and relatives back in the turbu lence and traffic and ferment of the States. The boat also periodically brings such fruits and vegetables as are not native to the island. The view in all directions is enough to inspire the least artistic to try. Sun drenched days and star-studded nights and the fellowship of persons of similar tastes make this island an ideal retreat for the hurried, harried ulcer candidate. There are none of the customary tropical diseases on the island, no poisonous snakes, few insects. The 12-acre island is small enough to be “cozy,” yet large enough so that you can stretch your legs for a vigorous hike. There is space provided for community athletic events, if you are so inclined. There is free medical care if you get ill, free nurs ing care when you get old. All the things Americans have been voting for are available on this island . . . free. It will cost you no money to live there forever. It will cost you only your freedom. Nothing more. You need give up only your freedom. Everything else is free . . . On Alcatraz. NO MYSTERY!
