Butler Says Congress
MdY Extend Woo:
No Rechurter

In an exchange of commune
cation between Ashley L. Tot
ten and Senator Hugh Butler,
the latter expressed the belief
that the Congress will extend
the Virgin Islands Company
but will not approve a re-char
ter.
Mr.. Buffers letter states:
I want to thank you for your
fine letter of May 18th. l read
it with genuine interest. /
hope you will continue keep
ing me informed of your views
on developments in the Vir-
gin Islands.
1T is my opinion at the mo-
ment that Congress will ex-
tend the present charter of the
Virgin Islands Corporation
rather than adopting the bill
that was proposed in the
House"
To this Mr.. Totten replied:

House Make
Changes In
Pension Bill
May Not Apply To
Veterans OF Second
World War; Amount
Likely TO Be Reduced
P Wirephotos


WASHINGTON, March %. -
Some form of the veterans pen
Ssston bill fnsiy be passed in the
House of Representatives before
it adjourns for the day, Represen-
tative Rankin, the sponsor, said
this afternoon.
He added that he expects the
bill will be drastically changed
before the house adopts it. There
is possibility, he explained, that
veterans OF World War II will not
be included in the provisions Of
the bill, and that it will apply
only to veterans of the first
World War.
Other supporters of the bill as
serted that it probably. will I'M
dergo even more changes than
Rankin has outlined The amount
provided for pensioners is likely
to be reduced: though the age
provision of IS will be adopted.
As the administration is against
the bill, it was predicted that it
may not pass the senate, and,
even though it does: it may be
vetoed by the President.
General opinion was that the
measure will not be adopted dur
ing the life of the 3lst congress,
though Rankin said he thought
that measure, with many
changes from the original bill,
may go through the senate, as
we'll as the house.

FesU Years
Tells kiwanis Club
Directors Last Night,
Trying To Induce
More Liberal Plan

Leonard A. Usina. president of
Florida National Bank of Miami,
and lieutenant governor of the
llth Florida district of Kiwanis
international, last night pre-
dicted rapid growth for Key
West during the next few years.
Usina paid an official visit to
the Key West Kiwanis club at its
meeting last night in his capacity
as lieutenant governor. He made
his statements concerning the
local economic picture at special
meeting of the clubs board Of
directors following tn regular
meeting.
The Miami bank official re-
vealed he has personally been
endeavored to induce directors
who control the policy of the
bank here to adopt a more liberal
plan in the matter of construction
loans. AT present, the local bank
is limited to financing FILA
loans TO three years.
This puts prospective home
builders in the position of hav-
ing to have extremely large
down payments in order to
amortize loans in a three year
period.
In addition Key West has
rating with FILA which pre-
cludcs advancement of building
money in sufficient quality TO
covSr tl,e@,t.fded cost Of matSrial
transportation without causing a
hardship to small home builder
Usina predicted a loosening Of
these restrictions in the near
future and with it the subsequent
rapid growth of the city.
The bank official admitted that
Miami az whole considers Key
West an outland community and
mistakenly criticizes anything
that is not Miami. A process of
education is needed he said to
make the people realize that
anything that helps Key West
also helps Miami.
Jerry Trevor, president of the
Florida National Bank of Key
West, was a guest of Usina at
last nights meeting, as was
Charles Cushman, secretary of
the Miami KiWaniS club.
