One other letter was sent to/ Bill Lee, chairman of Arthur Sawyer Post’s publicity commit- tee, by State Commander Brook- er. Tne letter reads, in. part, as follows: “I received Monday’s, (July 31) Key West Citizen and thank you.) You did a splendid piece of pu- bheity work for the Legion in connection with the Conference, and it is much appreciated. It is hoped, too, that it will be helpful to Arthur Sawyer Post No. 28 of the American Legion”. “The publicity program would not have been successful without thé Wholehearted co-operation of The Citizen”, Bill Lee said. “The Citizen gave Arthur Sawyer Post an almost unlimited amount of space and prompt service on all the printing jobs required at the last ‘Minute. Such fine co-opera- | tion is one reason why the con-/ ferenee events went over the top | to give Arthur Sawyer Post al great achievement and Key West | a great boost as a convention | city”. 3 | DUNCAN REMOVED: | AS BRIDGE HEAD} (Continued from Page One) | tempt to turn Pigeon Key into a gambling resort.
