For 47 Years Devoted to the Interests of Key West SLAYER OF SANTIAGO'S MAYOR PAYS DEATH PENALTY BY A CITY PLANNING PRIMER Arranged Especially for The Kev West Citizen From Material of Commerce at Washington LOVERING Carrying Out The City Plan Granting the advantages of city planning, how is a city plan best prepared and carried out? H Its preparation requires a skil-| ful handling of details, clear vision into the future, good judgment in deciding what is practical, and a spirit of fair play in adjusting ap- parent conflicts of interest. The execution of a plan, however, is never completed before a city stops growing or rebuilding, and a continuing organization is needed | to see ‘hat the details, modified as required, are carried out and> that the support of leading citi- zens is mobilized when necessary. Carrying out a city plan which has been adopted does not usually start with bond issues to cover improvemenis on a grand scale. The city government so allots its! yearly expenditures that each re- presents a part of a logical plan. This requires courage on the part of the city government, for ioo free departures from the plan may result in just such disorder and uncertainty as it is designed to ) Prevent. Its integrity must be | supported continually by a strong | public opinion. { | With a city plan, for example, | i i stead of adding a series of un-j connected units, contribuies to- ward a network of well-paved ma- reets that care for the great aia city’s traffic. for pe part authorities. Supporting fre- of city | citizens’ organizat'ons ej quently most helpful in s: voluntary adherence to the plan. (City Plan Commi Wor! A city. plan commission is usv-| ally the most effective agency to; supervise the prepara.ion of a city plan and to aid the city govern- ment and private individuals in’ carrying out its essential features. Such a commission usually con- sists of five, seven, nine or more members, and may include the mayor, the head of the department of public works and a represent. ative of the city council or similar body, with prominent citizens, usually serving. without pay. for the other members. It should be authorized by the city council to expend funds for preparing a plan, and to call on all municipal officials, including the ciiy engineer, city attorney, and others, for advice and data. The city council, in turn, ordinarily derives its power to grant such authority from an enabling act passed by the State legislature. Such acts are already in effect in many States. Where such authority has not been granted, unofficial cormmis- sions, perhaps appointed by the mayor, or representing private or- ganizations of the city. may be organized and can often accom- plish a great deal, particularly if they succeed in raising private funds for preparing a plan. Al- though such a plan may be fol- lowed in some features by the city government, practical results are much more often attained when the commission has official advis- ory powers. It is generally considered most satisfactory, however, not to have the official city plan commission charged with executive functions, such as the administration of the park system or the details of ehoosing school sites or some of the, usual construction of admin- Astrati ons of the public’ po a a Dag a fence indicates that such duties are better left in the hands of regular executive departments and administrative boards. “pe city plan commission is 7z- pro- moting (he carrying out of a good city plan. It therefore has to de- termine how the city’s limited re- sources and expenditures may pro- vide for the most essential pro- jects.

METHOD CUBA EXPERIENCES ITS SECOND EXECU- TION IN PERIOD OF TWENTY YEARS (hy Associated Pressy SANTIAGO, Cuba, Aug. 7. —Hernan Pena was executed by the garrote method this morning for the murder two years ago of Mayor Villaion, of Santiago. The collar of the machine which sent the prisoner to his death was tightened about his neck at 6:01 o'clock, and he was pro- nounced dead after seven minutes. ; . It was the second execution in Cuba for the last 20 years, Salvatore Aguilera having been garroted on July 8 for the murder of his aunt. According to official wit- nesses, Pena went to the gar- rote tranquilly, and death, ap- parently, came immediately after the collar was tighten- ed. ACTIVITIES OF DAILY VACATION ES AT BAPTIST CHURCH LAST NIGHT Key West’s first Daily Vacation Bible Schoo) is now history: A final checking of the records shows that in the making of ‘hat history one hundred and eighty- five lives, including facaity ond pupils, were touched. The larg¢ crowd attending the commence- ment-last night at the Fire; Bap- ist Church were impressed and d>- ighted with what they sew and ‘eard. It‘can be safely sald that ‘he school was one of the most uccessful religious enterprises indertaken in Key West in recent vears. Last week, Rev. W, K. EB. James, »astor and Principal of the schodl, ealizing that the boys and igiris would give something worthy to those who would attend the com- mehcement, mailed invitations to the pastors of the other charches that they might pass on the in- vitation to the'r congregations last Sunday. Before the rege nadience last night Mr. James ex- pressed the hope that next suni- mer a much larger school than the one then closing might be held for Key West boys and girls, or that several such schools might be fos- tered by the churches. He stated further thet the knowledge “and experience he had gained in pre- paring for and conducting ‘his ‘NDS of a broken clutch, when they | turbance is moving northeastward, t? lead the way to the eache,/ school iq st the service of.
