BLITZKRIEG HIT STREETS: Editor, Key West Citizen: If something isn’t done to remedy streets soon, the merchants and business men of this city may just as well make up their minds now to face a slump in the tourist business next winter. No doubt, the first impression a stranger gets when he drives in is that one of Hitler’s Blitzkriegs has taken place here. Most of the streets look as though they have been used for bombing practice. Every Key West car owner should flatly refuse to pay the $3.00 city tax this year until something is done to put the streets in better condition. Even if the holes are filled with mud they will be a lot better than they are now. A CITIZEN. July 26th, 1940.
