Station in Key West on Novcm-
Der l. 1889. after having been on
an inactive basis for nine years.
died this morning in the Naval
Hospital in Key West. He had
been ill since last December.
Key West was in the doldrums
when Captain Hoey came here
in 1899. The people of this city
had gone through the CWA, the
FERA. the WPA days, when
thousands of Key Westers had
suffered and still were sufferin3
from the depression. But the
operation of the alphabetical
designations did little to relieve
the acute economical conditions
in Key West, except to keep
body and soul together, but from
the day Captain Hoey reopened
the Naval Operating Base an
impetus was given to business
that has continued, with every
increasing force, ever since.
Captain Hoey was born in Mil
ford, Delaware, in 1887, and
graduated from the Naval Acad-
envy in Annapolis in 1909. He
was active throughout the first
World War from the time this
country entered it. and was as
signed at Brest, in France.
In 1917, he was made a full
lieutenant and, year later was
