Officials Of Company Meet With
City, Marathon Chamber Today
By jim COBB

The middle keys community of Marathon has en-
tered the picture possible terminus for United
States Cuba ferry operation.
The possibility that the long discussed car ferry line
might abandon Key West in the face of their inability to
arrive at lease agreement with the city commission for
the Clyde-Mallory Dock, advanced last night by n
c. Hines, executive vice president of the Caribbean Ferry
Service lnc one OF the three companies which have been
negotiating with the city for lease to the dock.

Florida Oldsters
Needn't Worry
Over Pension Cut

TALLAHASSEE R- Florida's
old age pensioners don't have to
worry about a cut in their benefits
up to June, 1855.
The Cabinet Budget Commission
has agreed to release the 121a
million dollar old age assistance
appropriation to the State Welfare
Board in a lump sum instead of
in quarterly installments as is gen.
orally done.
The board said the money would

Property
Valuation
City Tas Bills
May Be Issued
Little Late

The assessed valuation of
real and personal property
In Key West has shown an
Increase of $1,530,695 over
1853, according to the cur
rent tax rolls.
Valuation of the city's
real estate is set on the tax
book at $24,837,100.O0 -
an increase Of $913,65O over
1858.
Personal property valuation is
set at $4,9S6, ESQ., Coup $617 ,045.00
from last year.
The Increase is q result Of the
brisk building boom Key West has
been experiencing in the past year.
There have been no appreciable
increases in individual tax assess
ments.
Bills May Do Late
But tax payers may be a little
late in receiving their bills this
year since the city is faced with
the problem Of finding a new tax
assessor and setting up an office
for him so that the books can be
completed and turned over to the
Tax Collector. Deadline date for
turning them over is usually Aug
ust so that he can prepare the
bills which are mailed out Sep
TENDER ].
The possibls delay stems
from the resignation of Sam Pin
der, Jr., and the action by County
Tax Assessor Claude Gandolfo in
refusing to allow the city further
use of his office. The pair claims
that the tax books have been "un-
fairly criticized"
Some sources here estimate
that 1t will cost the city up
wards of $4,000 to set up their
own office, but City officials have
said that they do not believe it
will cost much more than $4,000
since they can make use of equip
ment in the Tax Collectors office.
However, City Tax Collector Ar
chic Roberts said today that he
doubted If that would work out
since his office is already over
loaded and cramped for space.
Equalization Beard
Next step in setting up the
city's tax structure Is for the
Equalization Board to accept the
book. The board, which meets to
hear complaints and pleas for ad-
justments on tax assessments, was
scheduled to convene last night
but did not reach a quorum. The
absence Of Mayor c, B. Harvey
from the city was the reason for
the delay. The city charter pro-
vides that all five members Of the
city commission must be present
before the board can meet.
Meanwhile, a tentative city
budget has been prepared by City
Manager Victor Lang. The city
commission is expected to meet
this week in their annual budget
caucus to thrash out their spend
ing policy for the coming year.
Deadline date for preparation OF
the budget and for the city COM
mission to set the millage is
July / to allow the Tax Assessor
time to extend" the books-that
is to compute the actual amount
Of taxes to be paid by each tax
payer.
No Millase Increase
No increase in millage is pos
sible this year, since the current
rate of 2212 mills is the maximum
allowed by law. This includes 20
mills for general services, two
mills for the city's share Of the

Hines told the city COM
mission which met in spec
ial session last night to con-
slider the lease agreement,
that the company has been
approached by the Marathon
Chamber of Commerce in
an effort to have negotia-
lions started with a view to
running their ship between
there and Cuba.
This morning, Hines, along
with Blaine Willenborg, treasurer
of the company, and Joseph H.
Church, secretary. met with Off
Gals of the Marathon Chamber of
Commerce to talk over the posi-
bility.
/. Meeting Held
John H. Goggin, president of the
Marathon Chamber confirmed the
meeting and said that the trio had
expressed an interest in coming
here"
I'VE met with the gentlemen
but we have reserved any de.
cision until we learn more about
their operation" said Goggin. 1--WE
definitely have the facilities to
handle such an operation but we
want to be sure that we are not
being used as a lever to close a
deal with Key West"
Goggin pointed out that Boot
Harbor, on the ocean side of
Marathon, has deep-water facili-
ties to handle the boat.
Two-Fiour Session
Last night, in a two-hour ses-
sion, Hines outlined to the city
commission details of the organi-
cation of his company and how
they propose to operate. However,
the city took no action on his pro-
posal, pending the receipt of fur
Their information. The consensus
of the commissioners was that the
company should be required to
post some kind of a performance
bond or guarantee that they will
start service on Sept. as they
promise. The commissioners held
that they should not commit them
selves to leasing the dock until
they have such a guarantee.
And the Gulf Atlantic Transpor-
tation Company, who have also
been negotiating with the city for
the dock, entered a strong protest
against the city granting a lease
on the terms offered. In a letter
to the commission, H. G. Williams,
president of Gulf Atlantic, also
threatened to move his proposed
operation to Marathon or Miami.
cATco Comment
please be advised that the
Gulf Atlantic Transportation
Company has not abandoned its
plan to establish a ferry service
between Florida and Cuba. How
ever, this corporation will not in
augurate service until such time
as satisfactory labor conditions
and dock facilities are arranged
Tor IN Cuba. At the present mo-
ment, these negotiations are pro-
crossing satisfactorily. If the City
OF Key West enters into a lease
tleup for this complete terminal
to another ferry operator, this
