Extensive Repairs Being
Made To Porter Dock
Are Nearing Completion
Steel Replaces CreOsOted
Wooden PiIing UsedPre-
viOusly As Supports To
Structure

Extensive repairs to the sup.
ports and decking of the main
pier of the Porter Dock Co., are
nearing eompIetion and within the
next three weeks will be COM
pIsted, IL is expected, said Mama
ger Charles Taylor this mornisg.
Heretofore when repairs were
found to be Necessary for the pier
supports, wooden piling, creosot-
ed, was used. This project, now
nearing completion. called for
something more lasting and steel
has been used.
For each of the piling, twin
steel rails of the heavy type used
by the Florida East Coast Rail-
way. were adapted. The rails are
reinforced by a section Of rail
cut to shape By using an oxy-
acetyline torch, and the ends are
inserted in openings in the rails.
When the rails, which are cap
ped by a small section of other
rail and driven into the bottom,
which IS mostly of rock formation,
keye been sunk to the required
depth, one on either side Of a
beam support, they are bolted to-
eether above and below, and the
beam rests on the inserted cross
piece forming a perfectly solid
foundation.
Mr. Taylor said that the idea
has proven PERFECTLY practical
and he was convinced that when
finished and the entire dock COM
pleted, and the decking in place,
the pier would be one of per-
feet stability, stronger than ever
and would last for 10 years.
When the last piece of decking
has been placed and work deelar-
ed completed, about 200 tons of
steel will have been used in the
reinforcements. The same style
o. work win be used in the plans
for repairs and achievements on
the auxiliary dock, at which is
berthed the Wrecking Tug waro-
Ter.

en- being socks from a Duval
street store.
1t appears from the story that

started to hide away the socks,
and a check showed that Ia pairs
had disappeared.
He was later besieged by two
of the clerks who caught him and
insisted that the foot coverings
be returned and while this was
taking place he threw several
pairs to one of the young women,
the others were recovered from
his person
Later the manager of the store
filed an information and the ar

Besides the young women,
Cleora Roberts and Marguerite

when he was trying to make his
getaway, there are two others
summoned as witnesses in the
case.

DR. NJ. A. Sturm, recent pur-
chaser of a $1,250, 900 lease for
80 years on the Hotel Lindbergh,
which occupies en- entire block on
Fifth street at Miami Beach, is in
Key West, and is looking over
the possibilities of making some
real estate investments with Hugh
Williams, of the real estate firm
of Brett-Williams, Inc.
While coming to Key West with
only an open mind in order to see
the city and determine its possible
growth, DIR. Sturm has been so
well impressed with the POSSIBLE
ties here that he has formulated
certain plans and has commission
ed Mr.. Williams to work out the
details in connection with GER
tain real estate properties for him.
The doctor is of the firm convic-
ton that at least % percent of
all the automobile visitors to
Florida, including trailers. will
make the "trip to Key West over
the wonderful Overseas Highway,
with trip to Cuba and to Fort
jefferson at Dry Tortugas.
While visiting at the office of
The Citizen, the doctor said he
sees a distinct new trend for the
future and is extremely well inn
pressed with future possibilities
of Key West and also sees the
vital need for new constructions
of all kinds in Key West and ut
tered a warning to Key Westers
to make ready for the crowds.

FUTURE OF ISLAND CITY
INTERESTING SPECULATION

! Living in one of the gray, shut
tered Cuban houses, under plumes
of rose and purple bougainvillea,
is pleasant in itself. It is also a
sufficient wedge against the
neighbors' ready hospitality. And
its slight responsibilities are an
introduction to all the wonders of
trade, especially of the fish mar
kets on the wharf where the pick
! of green turtle steak, snapper, crab
or slice Of silver kingfish is Of
fered.
| There are others, too, for the
waters around Key West contain
600 varieties of edible fish in adj
dition to the queer chaps best
known to the aquarium. A few
hours fishing may yield a col
lector's item, as well as dinner. If
| it is simply dinner that is want
ed and not a photographic sub
ject, as good a one may be caught
from one of the many bridges
trimming back into the keys as from
1.-THE deck of a boat.
All the water, however, does
not belong to the fish. A large
pool of it, ringed with native mari
and rock like south sea atoll, in
vites a swim with no unwelcome
surprises from the deep. Else
where are beaches, Rest Beach
with palm-thatched cabanas and
sun shades, and at no place does
petty commerce interrupt the
stretches of white sand. of jade
and liar sea.
Famed For Gardens
/ From e botanical standpoint,
Key West has few peers. The
sailors, who borrowed ideas from
Nantucket and the Bahamas for
their homes, brought seeds and
PLANTS from all over the world to
brighten their dooryards. Records
of many an odyssey lie tangled in
/ today's green abundance. The
unlikelier specimens are tagged
for the instruction of passers-by
but none is more beautiful than
the native flowers that dress even
the meanest lane.
| But testimony to the existence
OF a garden spot is easier TO give
than to the benefits it confers. An
early precedent comes to mind.
Key West knows this and that is
why she likes to see visitors turn
into "conchs" 2s the old resi-
dents cal themselves. She would
never have had a gallery-full Of
paintings. etchings and drawings
testifying to the beauty Of her
externals if the artists had not fall
len at least temporarily under her
spell.
Some concessions are perhaps
inevitable. Yaehtsmen are suppos-
ed to require a place to spend
money and plans are underway
for the construction of first class
club, suitable to their needs. But
Key West IS opposed TO funda-
mental change and those who have
been there are loud in eehoing her
protest
