Decide Not To Prosecute
Morris Blumberg

The commissioners decided not
to prosecute Morris Blumberg
who allegedly committed perjury
in 1947 around December 26.
Blumberg is alleged to have
claimed that he was a resident of
Key West and Monroe County,
and to have acquired a divorce
from his wife at that time. Coun-
ty Solicitor Allan B. Cleare men
toned that Judge Aquilino Lopez
had set aside the divorce.
Cost of trying Blumberg would
run into the hundreds of dollars
and the County Commissioners
did not feel disposed to spend this
amount. The commissioners did
agree to prosecute Blumberg if
someone else would foot" the
bills.

thousand advertising folders
printed in the Spanish language
have been distributed in Cuba.
All newspaper ads used were
professionally prepared by Mi

tain attractive art work and copy
designed to feature Key Vests
attractions, hotels and shopping
facilities.
In reply to the ads. nearly 100
letters from prospective Cuban
visitors have been received by the
Chamber of Commerce. Each in
quiror is mailed a letter of vel
come to Key West, a list of hotels
and another folder explaining
what he can enjoy while on vaca-
ton in our city.
At present, the Chamber is at
tempting to learn from business
people how the response has been
to date in connection with the
campaign. Several hotels have re-
ported greater influx of Cuban
visitors. In one beach motel at
least, a Cuban family of five has
checked in for one month.
To underwrite the cost of the
campaign, local businessmen have
made avilable to the Chamber
$515., which is highly commend
able and sincerely appreciated by
committeeman in charge of de-
tails, who are: Frank w. Smith,
Chamber of Commerce Merchants
Division chairman, and Victor
Lang, chairman of the Chambers
Hotel and Restaurant Division.
