CLARIFICATION
OF STATEMENT
RELATIVE TO ARTICLE AP-
FEARING IN THE
CITIZEN

There was no inSlnuatlOn meant
that the City Council was not
working with him, Mayor Albury
said today, commenting on the
article in The Citizen yesterday
concerning the possibility of Sc
curing a PWA loan for a mu-
nicipal airport.
1t was also unfortunate that the
error was recorded that it had
been referred to the Project Com
mittee of the Council when this
was not the case, the Mayor said.
Passing of the $4,500,0 900, 900
bill advocated by the President,
funds from which may be used
to build municipal airports, gives
the move added impetus, the
Mayor stated.
There are a number of city
owned properties which may be
used for the airport, he said, prin-
cipal among them being part of
the golf course properties, which
can be dredged and pumped and
provide an ideal base for both
land and sea planes.
Work to secure the airport prof.
Get has already begun, the Mayor
concluded

MARK WILCOX
TOSPEAK HERE
THIS EVENING
CANDIDATE FOR u. S. SENATE
WILL ADDRESS VOTERS ON
LOT ADJOINING LA CON-
CHA HOTEL

Congressman J, Mark Wilcox,
candidate for the senate, will
speak this'evening, beginning at B
o'clock, on the vacant lot adjoin-
ing La Concha Hotel on Duval
street.
Mr.. Wilcox has sent word to
Key West that he has message
that will interest every Key West
er and requests that as many as
possible be present to hear him.
He is especially anxious for WPA
workers to hear what he has to
say about the activity of the WPA
higherups in this campaign
against him and for one of his
opponents.
He also says that he wants Key
Westers to know why he opposed
the wages and hours bill, the re-
organization bill and the So-called
supreme court packing bill. Work
men in Key West, Mr. Wilcox
writes, will be particularly inter
ested to know how certain pro-
visions in the wages and hours
bill discriminates against the peo-
pie of Florida.
Mr.. Wilcox writes that you can
Judge a man as much for what
he doesn't do as for what he
does, and he will explain TO his
hearers tonight his position in
matters he has refused to do as
well as his position in matters
that he has done.

of Registrations reports. He
said the total number would

of the presidential election IN
1896.
There is more interest IN
this election than ! have ever
seen in any previous election
as long as I have been Super
visor" Mr.. England said.
Beginning with 4.725 regis
trations when the books were
opened some time back. about
1000 more names have been
added. Mr.. England said.
About 1870 of these names
are those of new residents In
the city or local voters who
have never voted here before.
The remaining 2SGo are those
who were once dropped from
the rolls because of non-paY-
ment of poll tax. but who
have registered this year
since il is no longer required
TO pay the tax.
This morning marked one
of the heaviest rushes Of

has experienced in his years

Ask That They Be Made
Agents To Operate I'm
der Jurisdiction of Mu-
niCipality

AT a meeting Of City Council
held last night, a communication
was read from Robert ]. Lewis
and S. Owen Sawyer, who were
awarded a contract by the city
sometime ago for the operation of
the scavsnger service. in which
they gave an outline of the ex-
pense incurred In its operation.
and requested that the city take
over the operation of the service
itself. and appoint them as agents
TO carry on the work.
1t was stated that they were not
able to successfully operate the
service under the present status,
due to the fact :hat they cannot
operate exclusively as the city
has been unable TO furnish them
the proper protection. especially
since the Circuit Court has ON
two occasions rendered decisions
showing that the ordinance,
which was drawn by the city TO
furnish the necessary protection,
| is unconstitutional THIS, they
claim. leaves them in a position
, in which they are not able to en-
| list enough business for the re-
moval and handling of garbage to
operate without a great loss,
which has been experienced each
month since they were awarded
! the contract.
