PAGE EIGHT CUBA AND FLORIDA (Continued from P: 1) West in about a year from now. “One of the hard fighters for, the great artery that will send new! streams of life pulsing through Florida all year long is Captain; rns, U. S. N., who Clark D. St recently retired as commandant of the Key West navy yard to plunge, up toe the neck, into Key West’s development matters. Even Mr Stearns is in the game, with a cor- poration that is building happy homes for people who want to be| happy. The Stearns ha ved in the Orient, the South Seas, where Captain Stearns was governor of Samoa, and they have an educated view of just what the future greatness of South Florida is to be in competition with all the other joyous: beauty spots of the world. We were their guests aboard Colonel Robert Thompson’s famous big houseboat “Everglades,” which, by eraft on which the Count Lauderdale was sailing twent; years ago, as she told our citizens on a recent memorable when she discovered the town that bears her family name. * 6 ¢ “Cuba, too, as some folks may be surprised to Jearn, is also mak- ing splendid preparations for the| coming auto highway from tip to tip of Florida. They talk about) it in the pleasant American club in Havana, where transplanted Americans sit around the pleasant lounge and discuss the big days ahead when touring parties will speed down the auto road that ees to sea and at Key West roll their cars onto a 5-hour ferry that will disembark them on the mag- nificent Malecon, the boulevard that circles the clean, beautiful, fomantic old city that smiles a welcome from ‘her innumerable hills. This highway as a new link between Cuba and the United States is frequently di: President William P. F dent of the American Chamber of Commerce of Havana, who made a hit with his speech before the United States Chamber of Com- merce conference at Washington the other day, and by J. Bernard Frisbie, the Havana chamber’s ac: tive and efficient secretary. “General Machado, president of Cuba, was one of the first meh to see the significance of the high- way that would fetch automobiles from every part 6f the United States to Key West. He came ever to Key West and talked it out with Captain Stearns and the others. Then he went back to Ha-| vana and talked it over state, and the next day they had the Cuban congress pass an en- abling act that provides for the building, in due course and at a total ‘cost of about $300,000,000 of the second link of that hig’ way—an auto boulovard that is to} reach from one end of Cuba to! the, other. President Machado, experienced business man as well) as seasoned soldier, didn’t have! to have the _ possibilities beaten | into him with a sledge hammer.’ He saw and ‘had his country act forthwith. Not that it matters anything to the general, but I’ do like that statesman, Machado, “Mrs. Steele and I played along many miles of Cuba's section of | that great hish The seventy-five Havana to hills and dales, its estates, its palm-t farm houses, its mighty eleva trees and its picturesque, kindly people of tomorrow. niles road from Mantan with its lightful we have ever found any where.

This is regarded here} as the end of the revolutionary movement. TO THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS | OF MONROE COUNTY I beg to announce my candidacy for the office of Sheriff to fill the unexpired term caused by the death of my friend and associate j}the late Roland Curry. If elected the business affairs of the office will be conducted the ‘same as if} |Mr. Curry were living, and his widow and children will receive |from said office the same com- pensation as though he were liv- ing. I have been connected with the | Sheriff's office since Mr. Curry vas elected, and had his con- fidence, and have the confidence of his widow and family. Sheriff Curry worked hard for this office, he had only served about eighteen months of his four years, and it is my desire jand ‘mtention to see that his| | widow shall have the benefit of the office which he held, for the entire term. I pledge a faithful performance of duty. My four years’ service as Sheriff, and my six years’ ser- vice as Mr. Curry’s Chief Deputy | —— fully qualifies me to fill this im- portant position. I am therefore asking your sup- port. A. H. McINNIS. A LETTER FROM MRS. CURRY. Mr. A. H. MelInnis is today an- nouncing his candidacy for the of- fice of Sheriff to will the unex- pired term caused by the death of my dear husband, Roland Curry. Mr. McInnis was associated with my husband in the Sheriff’s office during the entire time that he wa’ in office, and my husband than a business associate. He trusted Mr. McInnis with all of his affairs, and I haye the same implicit confidence in him that my husband had. In the event of Mr. McInhis’ election I will occupy the same relative position finan- cially, as did my husband, and I will have for myself and children \the benefit of what he worked so hard to obtain. It is grievous to me to have to | take part in a political campaign lat this time with a broken heart vand a number of babies to care for, but circumstances have forced |this upon me as a_ defensive | measure. : I am therefore urging all my friends and the friends of my late |husband to elect Mr. McInnis, for \by so doing I know that I will be provided for.
