WILCOX DEFERS
VISIT HERE AT
PRESENT Time
PRESS OF BUSINESS ON PUB
LAC WORKS PROJECTS IN
GLIDING KEY WEST CALLS
HIM TO WASHINGTON

Congressman j. Mark Wilcox,
! according to information received
from him today, will not visit Key
| West at this time, as he has in
tended, because of the press of
business that calls him to Wash
ington regarding public works
projects in various parts of his
district. Mr.. Wilcox writes:
regret that I can not get
to Key West at this time. as
had looked forward with
great pleasure to visiting the
people there. I find, how
ever, that it is necessary to
return to Washington at once
to work with the Navy De-
partment in connection with
my proposal for the reopen
ing of the naval station in
Key West, and also to lend
helping hand before the
Public Works board on the
| Overseas bridges. | think the
people of Key West would
much prefer my going hack
TO Washington and looking
after these two important
matters rather than have me
visit them at this time.
After a short stay in Washing
ton, Mr.. Wilcox will proceed to
Chicago. where, next Friday, he
will address the congress of may
ors on his municipal bankruptcy
bill, which passed the house at
the last session of congress and
will be re-introduced at the COM
ing session. He will return to
Washington from Chicago and will
remain in the capital city till the
latter part of November.
Regarding the proposed reopen
ing of the naval station here, Mr..
Wilcox further said that he will
take up the matter actively again
not only with the navy depart
ment but also with President
Roosevelt, adding:
As you know. have here
tofore insisted that the light
er craft, including destroyers,
submarines and light eruis-
ers, should be quartered in
Key West during the winter
months. -.
With the expenditure of a
reasonable sum at Key West,
the station can be rehabili-
tated sufficiently to accomo-
date the light craft of the
Navy. The ships and the men
may then be maintained at
Key West from November
to April 1, without any add
ditional cost to the govern
ment, and, at the same time,
they will be SO situated as 10
enable them TO carry out such
practices and maneuvers as
are necessary TO keep them in
proper training.
Mr. Wilcox concluded that he
expects, shortly after his return
TO his district in November, to
visit Key West.
