Query Anent Hours

Readers" submit the following
anent the varied hour schedules
of VA: why is it that the field
employees of the Veterans Admin
istration are obliged to work one
half hour longer than Central
Office? General Hines stated at
his testimonial dinner that he
was always deeply interested in
the morale of his personnel. 1t
would seem that way when he
allows such a situation to exist.
It really means that instead of
26 days annual leave the employees
get nine days, as one-half hour
each day amounts to II days dur
ing the course of a year. I under
stand that the bright idea origi-
mated in the mind Of the medical
director-however, he doesn't have
to work the one-half hour extra. "
Vets Administration has Off
cially answered this corners query
on this by stating that clerical
workers in the field do not work
the extra half hour-only hospi-
tai personnel which must provide
24-hour service,

SEES GREAT

MEMBER OF NEW YoRK'S
DETECTIVE DEPARTMENT.
AND WIFE WE'RE VISITORS
HERE THIS WEEK

~
Steve Devine, Iieliienant in the
New York Detective Department,
and Mrs. Divine, who were visit
ing IN Key West this week, and
were guests Of former Traffic Of
ficer Everett Rivas, are convinced
that Key West has a great flu
ture.
MIR. Dcvine will be remembered
as the officer who captured Dyce,
the negro who killed a negro
man and woman in Key West
about IL years ago, made his es-
cape on a vessel of the Mallory
Line and was Caught in New
York.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Devine ex-
pressed themselves as being de-
lighted with the visit and yester-
day, before leaving for New
York, said: Only those who
have been in Key West on pre-
vious visits can see the changes
which have taken place in the
ra1t few years. and are able to
realize just how important they
are
Continuing, they stated: You
folks vino live in the city and
nave been here for years do not
grasp the significance of the
changes which are many, but to
the outsider who has seen the
cast and get a chance to again
sec the city as it row is, can note
the great change which has taken
place. Your highway is a great
piece of engineering work, and
] venture to say ii is one Of the
most interesting in the world.

YACHTING COUPLE
LIKE ISLAND CITY:
WILL LIVE HERE
JAMES A. MEYERS LIKE
COURTESY OF KEY WEST
FOLK: NEWARK TRIO AR
RIVE FROM PIT. PLEASANT

Mr.. and Mrs. Avary Moon of
Pine Island near Boca Grande,
are so fascinated with the Island
City that they have determined
to make Key West their home in
their 40 feet boat, "Cross Wind"
at the Yacht Basin.
Mr.. Moon said he believed this
was so since Mrs. Moon is alb
solutely determined to remain
here. The Gross Wind" is a
rather unique boat. Formerly
owned by Ringing of Ringing
Brothers Circus fame and de-
signed especially for comfort in
Gulf fishing it was purchased by
the Moons. The boat is a
double ender, with enough space
both below ard above in the
cockpit to stand entirely erect.
1t has high iron ratings and a
jury mast to steady" the boat
in heavy seas and also for emer-
gency use.
Mr.. Moon is a contractor and
has built several beautiful homes
on islands on the west coast. The
Moons are entirely sold on Key
West. We heard a great deal of
adverse comment concerning it
before we came here, but we
like the city and its people i'm
mensely. 1t is the one place
where people enjoy answering a
question.
Others Arrive
Arriving in Key West this
week from Point Pleasant, New
Jersey, having travelled down
the Intracoastal waterway the
entire way and entering Key
West by way of Hawk channel
in their 38 foot yawl were Mr..
and Mrs. James A. Meyer and
Preston Conrad. The Meyers are
in the fishing tackle business.
The trip down was comparatively
sheltered all the way, they said.
They used sail most of the way,
depending on their auxiliary
throughout the canals.
