There are at present available here 300 rooms in the city hotels which means that about a thousand per- sons could come here. There will also be some advertising through the local radio station and news- paper to show the tourists what they have -here after.they have arrived. This advertising will be very small? ° ART PROJECT Jack Delaney was named by the Council to go after the Art Project for the city. Former Art Gallery was downstairs from the Red Cross headquarters and was quite a nice gallery with exhibi- tions from many of the leading artists visiting here. There is always an artists’ colony here. Mrs. Goddard pointed to the Otto exhibition, which will be hung at the Woman's Clubhouse shortly after the New Year. e e HOUSING NEED Steve Singleton emphasized that it is important to have some-} thing more than we have now in the city for the tourists to see and have a part in. Again and-agaitt people hammer ‘at ‘the® fact th we have ,9Q. municipal torium, n@ city athletic club, no botanical gardens, no art gallery, no aquarium, no beach. Thus the Council decided to take anvactive interest if these projects. - Mr. Singleton also suggested more’ housing for Key West and°stateé audi being caught off that bridge.

The men who are backing him are executives of Bramlett) Equipment Company in Miami| | and the owner of Holloran’s res- taurant. They will be glad to| post a forfeiture bond with the city when they secure the lease} from the city. Opinion ‘in :the | city today is that the Wilson/ | project is still the best for the city. Mr. Wilson emphasized that | besides the many facilities for} the yachtsmen there will be an exclusive club upstairs for them. Downstairs there’ will be facilities | for visitors. He emphasized very | | strongly that the pier would not | bea ge “nightelub”, but that #t“w6uld be a regular yacht pier os ds seen. up and.down the coast} of Florida. | i VISITORS TO KEY WEST LEFT TODAY ‘Mis and Mrs. John B. Bright ard’ #family, “avho: shave, that housing should be- number, spending the Christmas holiday one on the nation’s list. It was with Mr. Bright’s mother, Mrs. also pointed out that the navy John H. Bright, on White street, will shortly be filling up the city; left this morning for their home with a large increase expected to. in Tampa, after spending a very be in February. It appears that all naval units had Key West in’ mind as a logical place to move! their units after the war ended! and suddenly they all began to, converge on this city. Navy has recently taken back the Casa Ma- rina, rebolstered the Section Base, begun to build permanent build-; ings at Boca Chica, liven the commissary department and in| short begun to prepare for the’ rush. Some sources even say that Key West will not have housing enough even for these men and their families. ° e SPANISH SPOKEN Listened to David King yester- day and believe merhe can speak real Spanish.
