‘PAGE 81x hdd MUCH PLEASED ‘BLACK LEGION STILL — OVER HIGHWAY ww micuican news vaca — An interesting sidelight of The Citizen’s recent interview with Duncan McCrae, Detroit prosecuting attorney, in which he revealed a great deal of the inner workings of the. Black Legion case, is the recent news that R. Stanley Wilson was reinstat- ed by the Michigan Supreme Court at Lansing, Michigan. as a Highland Park City Councilman, although he is known to be a member of the Black Legion. The reinstatement was made April 4, and was ac- companied by turbulent ses- sions of the Michigan supreme tribunal. In giving the decis- ion it was brought out that "Misfeasance, misconduct or malfeasance to warrant re- moval from office must. . . amount either to maladminis- tration or to wilful and inten- tional neglect and failure to discharge the duties of the office at all.” Clipping was sent through the courtesy of Jacob Schrei- .i. S$. BROWNE, JR. SENDS « CLIPPING FROM ROCK- | LAND, MAINE H. S. Browne, Jr., member of the personnel of the U.S.S. Travis, | CG. writes from Rockland, Maine, enclosing a section of the Bangor Daily News, of’ Bangor, Maine, which contains the follow- ing brief sketch of Key West: It is under the caption, “Key! West Comeback”, and is as fol- lows: “Once upon a time, ‘Key West was Florida’s Metropolis. But since the Spanish-American War, when it was a strategtic point, its population of 25,000 has dwindled to 11,500. And the 1935 hurricane destroyed the railroad linking it to the mainland. But now a $7,400,000 highway, built ever the sea, partly on the old failroad trestles, is open, and Key West looks forward to happy days again”, Mr. Browne expresses his pleas- ure to “note mention of the home ber whom Mr. McCrae visit- town in print in one of the ex-| ed in Key West last week. treme sections of the country”, ant-continues: BaD S SS SIS S warded to us regularly and it is| GIANT’S SHOES needless to state that its columns | 3 ALMOST.

I was very much interested, as I used to get to Key West fre- }quently before the railroad ‘stopped operation. I was very much impressed | with the talks given, especially road. But, I do see great danger in the near future, unless the en- gineers have been fore-sighted and have provided proper protec- tion. I note that the road has been made hurricane-proof, and bomb- in that respect. But as I listened to the various talks, I visioned the people in a line from Chicago to Key West, and from Boston and New York to Key West, and all the 80,000,- 000 people in between these points, and when they hear all of the advantages and opportunities and start for Key West in their cars, I see danger of the Island filling up to a point where it will not hold any more, and still-the streams of cars will be coming2n, and on, and on, and whiléCio lives were Jost in the cons{guc- tion, d seeshundreds of people pushed out in the ocean and Gulf, unless i@ provision is made to stop-the-people at the Florida land end after the island is full. Of course, this is not difficult to arrange, but it must be thought of before a calamity happens. You have, no doubt, seen a spe- cial merchandise sale, especially ladies’ apparel, where a_ police- man would stand at the door and every time two or three people would come out, they would al- low two or three to come in. No doubt, you will need some such arrangement where the guard could let more people on, as more came back. I see visions of having no place to park. Of course, they can build tall buildings, which would take care of a lot of this. But it is going to take some real plan- ning and thought to be able to handle the situation. The old gentleman, who had lived there seventy years, saw visions of Key West being the metropolis of Florida by 1948. If there is room: to put the people, I would not be surprised to see it the metropolis of the United States in the next five years, pro- vided you could put on, broad- casts such as you had March 29 and the people could hear the marvelous advantages. I was in the vicinity of Vero Beach when I began hearing about the ad- vantages, and I am telling you, I wanted to turn right around and ™ up Past Week Almost Betters | drive right back, right then. But business compelled me to come on North, but I assure you I'll be down there in the next few days as I can hardly wait to see the tremendous opportunities. If there is anything I can do to help. safe-guard the situation, please advise me and I'll be down sooner. W. C. DANIELS. Eustis, Fla., March 30, 1938. ‘MONROE THEATER C.
