It wouldn’t cost much to swing gates across the mouth of the two docks and this would make an ideal dry- dock, The destroyers, which will be based here, can then drydock. The drydock at the Naval Station is too small. Another thing. the Navy Department is considering is an airplane hangar and machine shop at Trumbo. Complete blue-| prints of the area has been avail- able, for years to navy authori- ties. Many in town would also jlike to see the Trumbo dock area j become a shipbuilding drydock. CONSIDERING the unfair ad- vantage upstate cities take of Key West, which will soon be a real threat to their business, something will probably be said about the submarines in these waters making the travel to Cuba j unsafe. United Fruit has put out ja bulletin showing that the Carib- bean waters have an absolutely secure value. Then, with destroy- ers and planes daily patrolling this area, it is doubly safe.

That had us however we turned, IF YOU HEAR of anyone kick- ing about rents, tell them to see the Key West Realty Board. It is the pleasure of that Board to quote fair prices. If the naval officers claim that prices are be- ing boosted on them they should place their complaint with this Realty Board, which will be nat- urally interested in seeing that they get a fair price. Most of the officers want to stick below the $50 a month rent. Naval Station has been sent a letter stating this by the Board, ditions, arrived in port 5:30 o’clock yesterday afternoon.
