CIVILIAN CASA MARINA

Latest development on La Casa
Marina is that Captain c. E. Re-
ordan, coInmandant of Naval OPP
Grating Base, has recommended
that he does not wish the Casa
used in local housing for the
Navy. The hosiery, Key Vests
finest, is a big headache for Navy
men. For instance, there comes
the problem of putting it back
into the same shape in which it
once was with certain amount
of damage already reported to
the interiors during the war
years. The Casa is still owned
by the Navy Department and
what Washington decides in this
matter will count. The Navy has
proposed turning it back to Flor
ida East Coast Hotel Company.
In that case popular and efficient
manager L. P. Schutt should take
over. It would be nice if this
could be arranged by next sea-
son.

very proud of ali of Florida's cit

whom naturally falls the duty of
showing distinguished visitors

a lot of fun to talk to, with no

CIVILIAN MONEY sIgE

Another important point about
the civilian personnel at the Navy,
Yard is that most of them are
Key WesteTs or even new resi-
dents who live mere and spend
their money here. Thus two
thirds of the benefits monetarily
and otherwise are resolved back
into this community, This makes
