COMMISSIONERS
HAVE APPROVED
MUSIC PROJECT
APPROPRIATE TWO HUNDRED
AND FIFTY DOLLARS FOR
EXPENSES TOWARD FED
ERAL ORGANIZATION

County commissioners at their
meeting last night gave substantial
approval to the proposed Federal
Music Project for Key West, by
appropriating $3.50 for expenses
incidental to the administration
of the project.
Several weeks ago DR.. Clarence
Carter Nice, Florida director o:
musical projects, came to Key
West for the purpose of organ
izing the unit and after meeting
with local musicians decided the
idea was a feasible one for Key
West.
He took his departure and
within a short time the local WPA
administration was advised the
project had been approved and
Purchasing Agent C. G. Hicks
was advised of the setup for the
organization in Key West.
In his communication to the
county commissioners Mr.. Hicks
points out that an allotment OF
$4,000 has been made to meet
payrolls for the project which will
extend over period of six
months.
Those to he employed will be
IL semi-skilled musicians, Is
skilled musicians, six professional
musicians and one director.
Expenses for incidentals are es-
timated between $500 and $1,000
and it is to meet these that the
county commissioners unanimous
ly voted the $3.50 as the county's
share of the sum required.
