with the chief.
Meanwhile, City Attorney
j. Y. Porter has rendered
an opinion at the request of
commissioner Paul R. Rob-
erts that the city commission
lis empowered to create jobs
i'm the police department al
though the police chief
would presumably make the
actual appointment-subject
to the approval of the COM
mission and the civil service
board.
Replying to your verbal re-
quest for my opinion to the pro-
|cedure for the establishment Of an
additional captaincy in the police
department or the office of assist
and police chief, ] am of the
opinion that the Charter of the
City of Key West, Chapter Sew
ZEN, Article One, Section One, is
controlling" he said.

Of Key West, Florida, shall con.
sist Of Chief Of Police. and 90

men, pafrolnhsn. guards and en-.
pleyees IS the city commission
shall determine from time 10
time.
cit would therefore seem that the
city commission is empowered to
create either or both Of offices at
its pleasure, Porter said.
Hence, If the city commission
still wants to increase the number
of captains on the force, they ap-
|parently will have to pass an or
dinance authorizing the post.
When Cabrera was appointed
chief. it left the post vacant. Pa.
Itrolmen Harry Lee Baker and BIZ
Ienvenido Perez have been men,
toned prominently for the posts.
At Fridays meeting, Commits
|sioner Louis Carbonell, made a
motion that the job of captain be
abolished and that additional pa
trolmen be appointed but it died
for lack of a second.
The civil service board, which
refused at meeting last week to
recommend the names of the
three men for promotion, will
meet again next Thursday night.
Although they have not received
official notification of Cabrera's
appointment, they will probably
