As far as the | Key Westers are concerned. there very definitely is something the matter with it. Property owners at the head of the is- land, whose land is to be used for a hospital site, have heen amazed at the mysterious geversment procedure for taking title. and from the little we haxe been able to gather about it, they still don’t know exactly what happened. In the first place, it was public know!- edge that their land would be used for the hospital long before they were notified that the navy bad any léast, is discourteeus. Estimators from the navy department later made a study of the property. and re- turned te Washington. An announcement fellowed that condemnation proceedings would be instituted im the United States Southeastern District court. Then came the announcement that d already had been acquired by government, and the owners would be pected to move on notice after Oct. 31. Leeal officers added the reassurance that they probably would not be asked to move until later than that. but what irked the property éwners was the fact that they were not notified of the condemnatien un- til, in some cases. Oct. 13. while the navy had taken title Oct. 3. The owners still do net know when they will get the meney—a necessary piece ef knowledge if they are going to have <o use these funds fer purchase ef another place toe live—and no one appears to be very clear on the subject of where to direc? a protest. For at least ene of them. the eniy piece of concrete knowledge he has on the m procedure is that the navy is building a fence around his house. Certainly there is no sentiment in © denying the govermment any land it requires for defense. Neither is there any sentiment on the part of the p@p- ulation for denying the government as much tax money as it seeds for defense. But neither. again, is there any reason mposing an unfair burden on any im- zen, or for keeping him in the dark about what is goimg on in something as important to him as the seizure of his home. The Citizen office is full of government releases describing the intricacies of scores ef government bureags and functions. Surely, someone has time to prepare for the head-of-theisiand property owners a2 brief resume of what happened to their homes. the the ex- J. S$.
