Coast Guard of this District. The development of Monroe! County industrially and commer-! cially was a result of these gov- ernmental activties and their re- moval has caused enormous losses to property owners and the balance of the civil popylation. 5—The abandonment of Key West as a port of call for the pas- senger steamships of the Mallory Steamship Lines which had oper- ated in Key West for upwards of fifty years and had given employ-} ment to hundreds of men. 6—The diminution of the through freight business from Key West to Cuba which at one time required three large ferries, plying constantly between Key West and Havana to handle the freight, which -diminution was largely caused by reason of the Interstate!) Commerce Commission granti the privilege to. Sea Train Lin from New Orleans to Havana. 7—The destruction, by reason of the high tariff on pineapples, | of the large pineapple-canning in-| dustry of Key West, which give} employment.to several hundred} persons, 8—Due to the throughout the country, there has been no market for products from this county, entailing the loss of employemnt by fishermen. 9—The removal of the head-} quarters of the sponge industry} from Key West to Tarpon Springs, which deprived thousands of peo- ple of employment. 10—Due to the loss of the foregoing industrial and goevern- mental activities, it has produced a more acute.and oppressive de- pression in Monroe County. than any other portion of the United} States. The consequent loss to the busi- ness interests and property own- ers has made it impossible for them to pay state, county and municipal taxes.
