Lee Mason, tournament direc- tor, spoke more at length’ on the subject. He said the ‘Key West party consisting of Carbonell, Commissioner Albert Cooper, Cu- ban Consul Martin Liiraldi, Raul | Alpizar and himseif were greeted {at the air port by a delegation | representing “every executive de- partment in all political Cuba and every educational depart- ment from the University of Ha- vana down, the Army, Navy and 40 press correspondents.” Both President Grau San Mar- tin and Dr. Rafae? P. Gonzalez Munaz, secretary of state, showed great interest in the proposed celebration, Mason said. The President nominated Dr. Gon- zalez Munoz to represent the Cu- ban people and the Mayor of Havana, Dr. Manuel Fernandez Supervielle, to represent the Cu- ban republic at the celebration here. Mason also disclosed that the Chamber of Commerce has vol- unteered to decorate the city’s main thoroughfares—Duval, Eat- on, Division and White streets— with the Cuban government sup- plying thousands of flags. Crack Cuban basketball and swimming teams will come here to com- pete as part of the festival, he said, and an escradille of Cuban | Army fighting planes will fly in formation over the city. The Minister of Education of Cuba has offered a prize, Mason said, for the best essay by a school child on the life of Jose Marti, Cuban liberator. Commis- sioner Cooper, who represented the Masonic Order, arranged, Mason went on, for an interna- tional Masonic service to be held here April 10, birthday of the original Cuban revolutionary party, in honor of Jose Marti. Each night a parade will be given by some civic group from Key West, the first to be sta by St. Mary’s Star of the Catholic Church with 250 pe in “The Parable of the Fisher- men and the Nets.” Mason pre- dicted that the festival “will bring $250,000 to $500,000 into Key West from April 6 to 13. He expressed strong favor of Mayor Demeritt’s proposal to name a part of Roosevelt Boulevard af- ter Jose Marti. Mason also advo- cated having all the cafes during Jose Marti Week open 24 hours a day since “activity will be day He said the Cuban radios and press are full of the Jose Marti Week event, 150 newspaper col- umns in one day having been devoted to the subject. Upon a motion by Cooper a resolution was passed expressing apprecia- tion to Consul Lliraldi for his un- tiring efforts in making the event s.

Roberts asked and promptly re- |ceived the city’s permission to | pay its employes henceforth by check instead of cash in order to facilitate the finance depart- ment’s accounting procedure. The Commission also passed | an ordinance designating Eric G./ Curry, CPA, to make the annual! independent audit for the city.

The action will permit the La Concha Hotel to proceed with construction of a $3,000 steel sign atop its roof. The taxicab ordinance approv- ed at the last meeting of the Commission was passed on sec- ond reading without change. Commissioner Hunter Harden moved that the provisions that all cab drivers must have been residents here 10 years be chang- | ed to read one year. He was joined by Commissioner Louis Carbonell but the mayor, J. Car- bonell and Cooper voted the mo- tion down. Sightseeing buses were included with taxicabs as! subject to restrictions on gestur-' ing to attract customers while in motion. Considerable discussion occur- red on the proposed ordinance to make Fleming street between Duval and Simonton a two-way thoroughfare.
