Voting Machines
ToBe Readiusted


Supervisor of Registration
John England said today that
voting machines to be used at
the primary election next Tues
day will be readjusted tomorrow
Thursday and Friday by Frank
lin Archer, assistant custodian.
Mr.. England explained that,
under the law, every candidate
is given the privilege to see the
machines in operation, after their
readjustment, as an assurance
that every aspirant will get the
votes that are cast for him.
Because of information he had
received that the building at I'LL
Duval street is not available as
poll, Mr.. England said that an
advertisement will be published
in The Citizen, notifying first
precinct voters that their polling
place will be at the Mastic Trail
er camp at 638 United street.

There is a period coming UP
now which wise Key Westers
can well take advantage of. It is
a competitive period which will
keep us all producing at top
speed to stay on top. There is an
influx Of highly trained new
citizens into the community, high
ranking Navy and Marine Off
GERS, men trained in some of the
best Colleges of the country.
This viii be the group which will
come up against Key Vest. It is
a fast stepping team and our
own home team must be pre-
pared TO step as fast. II has been
freely and probably rightly pre-
dicted that the leaders of Key
West will be quite different five
years from now than are at pres
