Washington Correspondent
of the Kew West Citizenl

WASHINGTON. D. c., Feb. IL.
Houses are less costly in Mon
roe county it was learned today
from a report prepared especially
for the Citizen Washington Bu-
reau by the Federal Housing Au-
thority.
According to the FILA compila-
ton the average size loan insured
by FILA in Monroe county
amounts to $4,l27. The average
size loan insured throughout the
country is $4,412 and in Florida
it is 1896. While the loans in
sured do not represent actual
purchase prices of homes, the
proportion of the actual cost re-
presented by the loans over a
long period time, remains con-
slant.
At the end of June 1916, FILA
since its inception, had insured
"a purchase loans, totaling $l40,-
| 800 in Monroe county. ..
Meanwhile, under Title of the
Federal Housing Administration
act, 223 loans amounting in the
aggregate to $174,889 had been
| insured in Monroe county. These
are loans for repair of homes, or
on conversion into additional
dwelling space. Conversion loans
were emphasized during the war
years, and subsequently in view
of the housing shortage. Average
size of such lonas insured in
Monroe county was $784, in con-
traSt to an average size of $429
in Florida and 1896 througout the
country.
Indicative of the construction
activity during the first year
after the end of hoStilitieS are the
FILA Title l records for the last
half of 1945 and the first half
of 1916. From July /, l945, to
December 81, 1945, FILA insured
two Title l loans in Monroe
county, amounting to $5,749 in
value. During the first six
months of last year, the number
of Scuh lonas insured by FILA
was four, and they totaled ST.
752. This was an increase of 100
per cent in number but a de-
crease of SO per cent in value.
Nationally the second half of the
1916 fiscal year saw the number
of loans covered increase by nine
| per cent, and they registered a
value increase of 90 percent.
There was no home purchase
loans in Monroe County in either
the first six months of 1916 or
the last half of l945.
Throughout the country only
58,72l home purchase loans were
insured. During the 1916 fiscal
year saw the number of loans
covered increase by nine percent.
and they registered a value in
crease of 20 percent.

value the increase was "a per-
cent. In Florida home purchase
loans increased us percent in
number and 165 percent in value
over the same period.

Carbonell.

Although it would be fine move
it is something which can be
eliminated this year"
Cooper said he did not agree
with the Jaycees and the League
that the city managers salary
should be cut from $4,000 to $4,-
800. He said he favored $4,000
salaries for both Roberts and
Dopp. Roberts received $4,000 in
'46 also.
Commissioner John Carbonell
also joined the landslide against
the radio equipment and codifi-
cation and fire and police We
hicles. He differed with Louis
Carbonell, however, regarding
the latter'S opposition to hiring
an assistant city attorney. The
Jaycees and the League had also
backed the younger Carbonell on
this item.

Favors Attorneys Raise

FavorS Attorneys Raise
John Carbonell spoke vigorous
ly for raising City Attorney j.
Lancelot Testers salary to $4,000
and for hiring an assistant city
attorney at $3.50 per month. He
also answered the repeated con-
tention of Scher and Burt Gar
nett that the maintenance and
operation items throughout the
budget were extraordinarily
high. John Carbonell said that
the total for maintenance includ-
ed gas, oil, tires, batteries and
servicing. Scher and Garnett,
however, claimed that $25,000-
100000 per year for vehicle
maintenance is entirely too
high when the city has a NUM-
cipal garage.
Mayor w. w. Demeritt de-
clared his views had already
been expressed by John Car
bonell.
Harden said early in the meet
ing that all salaries should re-
mann unchanged from 1916, pro-
tested against the $l,700 item
for the fire chiefs car and asked
why the budget provided for an
| assistant attorney. This question
brought an extended statement
from Lester, who explained that
his work sis more. than a full
, time job" He said the city
should have the city charter
gone over by an attorney and
that it f a c considerable court
litigation. d.
Zone man can't serve you ade-
quately," he said. The city faces
some lawsuits and accident cases
and a couple of other accidents
are in the frying pan"
Louis Carbonell acknowledged
Lester had done a fine job but
repeated that "the taxpayers
come first" and he had to oppose
the pay raise and assistant city
attorney items even though he
made enemies by doing it.
Considerable discussion arose
over appropriations for the city
golf course, municipal stadium
and expenses of softball and has.
ketball games. Counsel for the
Key West Golf Club made an cf-
fective defense of the appropria-
tons for the links, Roy Hamlin
Woodworking chairman of the
Municipal Stadium Committee
staunchly defended the $1,000
item for the stadium and Mel
Saunders and Dwight Hunter
came to the defense of the soft.
ball-basketball item. Saunders
and Hunter explained that the
intake was actually more thar
the outgo for softball and has.
ketball.
When the street repair item:
came up for discussion Loui;
Carbonell favored doubling tht
| $4,7O0 item for material and sup
plies for street repairing. T h {
Jaycee committee sharply crit.
cized the budgets omission o.
$17,160 spent last year for wage:
of 10 street laborerS.
Another item which drew
sharp discussion was the pro
! posal in the budget to hire
license and weights and meas
ure inspector at $3.50 per month
Louis Carbonell contended the
police department could do that
task and was strongly supported
by Albury. Neil Saunders favor
ed setting up the new job ano
drew the soto voce backing o
Commissioner Cooper. Albury al
so pointed out that the 1945 bud
get was only $298,000
Louis Carbonell and the Jay
Gees favored raising the salary
of two colored policemen to thai
of others on the police force o

ing Jack Murray, City Person
mel Director, at $4,000 per yea
instead of cutting him to $l,85(
