It is the c. 28t city to the Pan-American coiintties, and is a strategic as well as valuable federal key po- sition to the Latin - American countries. From the Florida mai.tand to Key West, the distance is about 80 miles. Half this is over water. The Overseas Bridge Garp oration, a non-protit organization, is endéavoring to seciire federal aid for the construction of bridges over this section in order, to open up a vast section that wil’ prove ‘of great The voters of Monroe county over- whelming!y expressed favor to the propo- sition by autaofizing a bond issue for this work, funds for which would come from the governinent, and later would be paid back in tolls received.

This is not a pork bavrel grab, but a | réal- progressive attempt on the part of worthy men to do something worth while. And that is the position the government should take in studying the matter. The aid asked should be granted. OLD FIRMS’ NEW LINES If it be true that politics makes strange bedfellows, it is eyually true that something similar may be said of business, in the light of recent happenings. Manufacturers of various commodi- ties are addiig lines apparently unrelated to their original products, some of the new first glance.

Perhaps these firms, as well ~s others making similar departures from ' veir origi- hal lites, have an explanation <or the new | activities mentioned, each logical enough ‘from the standpoint of the company con- ‘cerned. ‘The general idea is betieved to be that by making two or more products a manu- facturer is'better enabled to cone with sea- sona] slumps and in many casvs to keep working forces on a more uniform schedule ‘| of émployment.

When the city came to negotiate with the Tennessee Valley Authority, the gov- li ernment agency in charge of this power, it was found that it would be impossible to| earry out its plans, because the Authority would not permit the city to resell power to domestic customers at rates which would enable it to break even.
