Yesterday, in the long scrim-

Meeting Here Tomorrow Night
In Interest Of Yacht Club
And Various Other Matters

Tomorrow night at 7:30 o'clock
there win be held in the rooms of
the Chamber of Commerce an in
tensely interesting meeting. and
every member of the chamber is
being urged to attend, and es-
pecially those who can visualize
the advantage a yacht club will
prove to Key West.
The regular meeting of the di-
rectors is to be held at the regular
hour this evening, but the meet
ing tomorrow will be for the OBJ
iect as mentioned, and it is an
ticipated that a large number viii
be in attendance to discuss this
most important matter.
1t is being pointed out by Sec
rotary S. G. Singleton that the re-
results of his plan of sending out
information relative to Key West
is bringing forth fruit. Fine
neighbors are already settling for
the winter. Correspondents, who
had apparently forgotten all about
the city are starting all over
again.
Noboy is worrying about people
wanting to come this season.
They will tax our travel and
sleeping accommodations, espe-
cially after the highway is COM
pleted and they find they can
drive the whole way. That will
be late in the spring. When viii

ton being continually asked in

secretary.
IF the Chamber OF Commerce
can get. the tools to work with
there is no doubt but that there
will be no Summer Slump. We
have got the best summer climate
within reach of millions of people.
An objective has been set toward
which we are working, and the
slogan is. "A Full House Next
Summer"
Mr.. Singleton stated that the
list of members of the chamber
carries today approximately "a
names, and said. DO you imagine
we can carry on this Job on that
sort of an income?" and decides
he does not, either.
Everybody can assist, he said.
He believes that there should be
more members in the organiza-
ton, and feels that applicants
would be greater in number than
at present, and suggests that those
who feel they can do something to
assist Key West, should pay a
visit to the chamber, and talk to
him. He said, I'VE can fix that
alright"
The list of names on the regis
ter of the chamber is short. he
states, but feels il viii grow. Those
people on the list are standing by

Federal Savings and Loan Asso-
Citations in the Miami area have
made loans of about twelve mil
lion dollars in the last three years
and have been a tremendous in
fluence in creating the present
amazing building activities in the
Miami area today.
It was pointed out that such an
association in Key West would
not be in conflict with any exist
ing bank or similar association or
lending agency, but would be a
depository for savings accounts,
and while the rate of dividends
cannot be stated until earned, all
of the Federal Savings and Loan
Associations heretofore establish
ed in Florida have since their in
ception been able to pay divi-
dends of at least 4 percent.
Main Purpose Four Fold
The main purpose of such an
association here is to encourage
thrift, savings, home ownership
and home building for d greater
number of Key Vests worthy
people.
Its activities would be superviS-
ed by the Home Loan Bank Board
and their examiners, and deposit
insurance from the Federal De-
post Insurance Corporation is re-
quired, and all individual deposits
up to $1,000 will be insured by
this government agency.
A further meeting for the pur-
pose of discussing the local hous-
ing situation and the require
Iments of the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration as to how this new
local association and the Federal
Housing Administration might CO.
operate in the greater interest of
the Key West area, was held Sun
day morning.
This meeting was attended by

planned that they were here to
help this new association in every
way possible and to make a sur
vey of the Key West area in an
attempt to make possible a great
er volume of FILA insured mort
cages in the area.
Praises Key West
Both gentlemen highly praised
Key West in having initiated an
organization for the purpose of
establishing a Federal Savings
and Loan Association in Key West.
They also said that the group
should have the cooperation of
the entire city in this forward
looking step and further explain
ed that such an association here
should greatly increase building
activities in the area: and that
they would do anything within
their power 10 cooperate with the
new organization.
