Plans have been made so that the Tortugas Laboratory will be open during the months of June, July, and August, 1924.

It is expected that the following investigators will undertake work at the Laboratory during the coming season and the proposed arrangements have been made with a view of accommodation to their requirements;

A sum not to exceed $100 will be available to each investigator to cover necessary traveling expenses to Key West and return.  This estimate is based in a general way upon the cost of travel from New York to Key West by boats of the Mallory Steamship Company.  Requests for reservations on these boats should be addressed to the Mallory Steamship Company, Pier 36, North River, N.Y. ^[[City]]  The boats sail each Wednesday at noon, and the fare is $43.20, including stateroom and meals.

It is expected that the "Anton Dohrn" will make four round trips between Key West and the Laboratory during the season for the accommodation of investigators and for transporting supplies, as follows:
