HOUSING SHORTAGES
IN KEY WEST LISTED
AS BEING ~ACUTE''

There are serious HOUSING
shortages in several cities in Flor
ida, but Key West is the only city
where accommodations are listed
as acute housing shortages" by
the Florida State Chamber of
Commerce in its weekly bulletin,
a copy of which was received to-
day by the Key West Chamber of
Commerce.
The business boom in Key West
is of greater proportion than in
in any other city in Florida. and,
as a consequence, it is harder to
get housing accommodations here
than in any other city in the State.
Conditions of housing accom-
modations in Miami are listed by
the bulletin as No general short
age but surplus rapidly being
taken up
