VOLUME LXVIII. No. 68 yman Seeks City Dump For Site Of 5100,00 CLEARE TO SEE ELLING- SON; NAVY GIVES PER. |, MISSION TO CITY TO DUMP ON DREDGERS| KEY With the prospect of construc- tion of a $100,000 business on the | city dump at Stock Island, Attor-' ney Allan B. ae Jr., will ask City Manager O. J. .S. Ellingson for a conference Monday to dis- cuss acquisition of *the refuse! area. Cleare said at Tuesday night’s client, Sam Hyman of Miami Beech, is ready to construct a! $100,000 business on the property.’ The Key West attorney has been representing Hyman be- , fore the County Commission in | aneffort to construct a dog track on Stock Island. He will apply for a license in June or the State Racing Commit- Announcement by the city | manager that the city dump has been abandoned was followed teday by a statement that use of emanene Leen for dumping Purposes will permit two garb- collections a week instead one. . Ellingscr. received a letter from Capt. W. A, Saunders, comman- dant, Submarine Base, today ap- proving the city’s request to use Dredgers Island for dumping pur- ones, subject to the following re- strietions; (1) All dumping must be between 7:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m,, except on Saturday, when dumping will cease at noon; (2) ne wet garbage may be dumped; | (3) the city shall use the same dumping area ag does the Navy; ! (#) dumping will be only by city employes with city trucks and identified by a city representative, , who shall be present whenever | is dumped; (5) the city assist in the saain' the dump; (6) refuse must tuened daily or whenever the Navy requires it. In his reply to Capt. Saunders, Ellingson said, “The use of Dredg- ers Key will shorten the truck‘ hau) so much that Public Service ! Department ‘expects to collect dry garbage for all residents~wwice weekly instead of once.” ; Cleare’s statement to the com- mission on prospective use of the dump by his client followed an appeal by Neil Saunders, sign painter, for permission to erect a { number of billboards there to sereen off the offensive dump view from the highway. Cleare asked that action on Saunders’ request be deferred in view of his client's desire for the property. The cvommission acceded after Saunders said it would be satis- faetory with him. Favors Medical School In State JACKSONVILE, Fla., March 19 (FNS).—It appears that a de- termined effort will be made to secure funds from the legislature for the establishment of a Medi- eal School in Florida.

State, Senator John E. Mathews ef Jacksonville plans to intro- duee such a bill in the next ses- sion and will make an effort to secure its passage. ny Palace Theater »BOB STEELE in “Durango Valley Raiders” News and Serial AA NANA LT KENYON AUTO STORE permit, 0 Business Ask Changes Of Permits aa To Dredge rewerewree Earl E, Pfeifer, J.J.
