I also re- ferred to things, matters, and’ con- ditions of the County as I know them and requested you to elect me to this office and give me a trial for two years. My second coming before you would be permitted to was because it was publicly sug- gested that a candidate for public office should make known to the people his experience in his pri- vate life so that they may judge his qualifications for the office which he may seek. 1 tried to do this briefly as the hour was late and the listeners tired. I stated that I began to work at the age of fourteen with ‘very limited education. My first emplyoment was in a cigar, fac- tory at $2.00 per week. At 16 I began to work in a department store where was sold from nails to full dress suits and here I be- gan to learn to speak the Spanish language, which I can also read and write. My employment lasted until the firm discontinued opera- eg The act would compel out-of-town milk producers and dealers to pasteurize and bottle in Key West the milk they sell They ship the raw milk in bulk to this city for final processing and bottling. Passage of the measure will give local milk producers no competitive advantage, but will place them on a parity with dealers from other points up the state, insure against loss of their bottles and provide Key West con- sumers with Key West supervision over Incidentally, it should provide some additional work for unemployed Key Westers. While we are on this subject, we are pleased to note the city council has agreed to meet this coming Wednesday with Key West plumbers and master electricians in ee vanes of-age-I went to me from street car job and gave me me Joyment in his business where yntinued for three years and it was during that time that I learn- ed and obtained an experience which started me on my business career. At this time I obtained a loan of three hundred dollars and started a second-hand furniture business which proved to be very profitable in same location for eight years, during which time I made much money but I spent it as freely as I made it, but I kept up good credit and used this ered- it to finance a proposition of a! friend, believing it to be good and to the extent of eleven thou- sand dollars. It was a complete failure. ‘I worked hard to pay up this obligation and in seven months paid thirteen hundred dollars “but” everyone wanted to be paid at once and it drove me almost crazy. It was suggested that I could pay all™by paying none (go into bankruptcy). This I refused to do as I did not owe a dimer éutsidésof Key West. 1 wa my friends who had trusted me with their goods. columns of The Citizeng Key West should‘have sane cE. i ble reeulations governing the vast amoun’ of plumbing and electrical work scheduled to be installed here as the city grows and ry requirement under the state health laws and every require- ment demanded by the fire underwriters should be a basic part of the new plumbing and electrical codes. In this way the safety and health of our citizens will bé protected. The codes will protect us in another direction. Our local workmen should be unrecognized’ and = possibly incompetent workmen. In short, Key West has got to protect himself against all kinds of inva- sions that increase our unemployment, and work to the detriment of our own civic in- stitutions and our own homes and _ busi- CHINA SURPRISES jer two years my health was bet- | ter and I moved to the Magic City ‘or r he the Japanese For about three months the Jap Where 1 had magic success.

You will agree that this is most unusual but they recognized my ability to serve the purpose and had confidence in me. I taught the three boys their school home work until they got to be smarter than I and in the meantime I was learning much from their father. As a private citizen many of you know that I have taken an active part in public matters. You know of my connection with our Overseas Highway from the be- ginning and that I served on the Bridge Commission with Mr. Trevor, Mr. Stowers and Mr. P. L. Wilson of our county. I have told you of my connections with the Carl G. Fischer project on Key Largo. I have tried to tell you (I am what I am) good and bad and if you don’t know me, it’s not my fault.

There is no power except from above that can keep me from making a living and carrying on as I have many friends and I am , not obligated to any one who can order me about. Whether elected or not I'll still keep going.
