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 . . .

and care for the child so that he
