He says he finds that Practically all restrictions have been removed. The reason of de- lay after the first announcement was made was that it was several days before the new regulations were placed before the president for his signature. In the interim the old orders remained in force and caused a number of delays and conditions. which could not be understood by those who were under the impression that the or- ders had been signed. Mr. Ponce said that tourists may take their autos to Key West and they may be entered without red tape or unnecessary delay. Some 40 automobiles, bringing about 70 passengers, some of them well known personages, will reach here tomorrow afternoon from Jacksonville and other points on the east coast. The motorcade, which is sponsored by the Jeck- sonville Motor Club, will be head- ed by Frank O. Miller, president, and the South Atlantic Coastal Highway Association. Among the isti i personages to arrive distinguished ‘ will be Thomas P.
