! Key West.s proposed new
charter, providing for q COM

passed the state senate yes
terday after The Citizen had
gone to press. The charter
was passed without a refer

Representative Bernie C..
Papy introduced the bill in
the house, where it was pass
ed shortly afterward, but it
had been in the senate for al
most two weeks.
Various reports about the
action the senate would take
on the bill made the rounds
Of Key West. One was that
a senator had declared he
would fight the measure UNI
less it had' a referendum
amendment, and another re-
port said it would be per-
mitted to die in the senate.
As a result of the latter
report, the Key West Cham

tive Papy, requesting that
rather than have the bill di'

the measure would be ap'

holding such an election
would have delayed the
