(MPROVEMENTS FOR KEY WEST ADVOCATED BY THE CITIZEN |) | GOOD LUCK AND SUCCESS Some days we get good news and some days we get bad news. It was bad news when The Citizen was informed that apparently La Casa Marina would not be open- ed the coming winter. That would have been the case had the hotel not been sold. We got a “break,” and,| though the new owners do not know yet on what date ‘the hotel: willbe neady to aceommodate patrons, they have said that it ' will be opened at some time durin made to have it’ feady by Christmas Eve, but there is so much to be done in the way of renovation it*may be later than that time before the opening occurs. However, we are pleased to know that La Casa Ma- rina, which has been char- acterized as the most attrac- tive hotel, including its im- mediate surroundings, in the state, will accommodate tourists during the 1946-’47 winter. We feel confident that the hotel will regain its popularity of pre-war days. Season after season tourists ig | the season.

The Citizen wishes the new owners, Colonel James Hammond and _associates, good luck in conducting the hotel. One reason why so much of the world is not Christian- ized is that there is con- fusion among the Christians. ALUMINUM HOUSES From London :comes the news that British airplane plants are producing alumi- num houses which can be put together in less than two hours. The houses leave the fac- tories complete in four sec- tions, with electric wiring and plumbing in place and wardrobes, cupboards and heating plant. The houses have four rooms and a bath and sell for $5,400. They are one of the prefabricated _ styles with which the British hope to replace the 4,500,000 dwellings destroyed during the war. While designed for temporary use, it is estimat- ed that they can last for 20) years or more. The use of prefabricated houses is not new_ but, in this country, as in England, | the process of adoption is slow. Current production in both countries . represents only a small fraction of the homes that-are necessary to meet the housing shortage. Obviously, the prefabricat- ed houses’ can help in the emergency, but it will take some form of mass produc- tion to bring prices down to suit the pocketbooks many families which need better housing. Whenever somebody re- ceives a favor from some- body else he expects anoth- er favor in return. NO SENSATION Times change and with it, | the implications and impgr- tance of events.
