SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2: 3, 1946 | ote te te tp te te ttt nt dn tant dn ntti hntnntn tn tn tn tnt tented) CORAL ROCKETS By L. P. ARTMAN, JR. AABADAAABAAAAAAASAADARADABAADAARAAS EVERYBODY HAPPY Remember sometime ago when you were told that gambling in- terests and ministerial interests were both sore at this column, claiming we were partial to the other side too much? Well, now. we get good smiles from both sides. As the entire story is un- folded and everyone sees that we tell the truth according to the te. timony given by the two far- apart groups and add our own opinions, then everyone is happy. In Key West you need not bi partial to any one side, as some would have us do, but just '4 fair—“fair comment’—to bota sides in the news articles and al- lowance of an honest editor's opinion in whims and editorials ° ° MANANA! A great many things are going to be left to the next city budget and some may have to be over again. For in: is the city tug and barg scavenger unit, repair of Spoug Dock, retreading of army strects yet materialize under previous plans. But we must wait and see until final word can be given. | e e CLOSED BOULEVARD! The Junior Chamber of Com- | merce in Miami some eight years ago were fighting a sore spot but | to no avail. There is a section of | Miami Beach ‘just above the | beautiful hotels where huge priv- | ate residences are right smack on the ocean. The’'entire seaview is | blotted out for the visitors driv- ing along Indian Creek road | there. This could well be the case | if ownership on Roosevelt Boule- ‘vard ever becomes a question. ; Developments would be pushed ; up to the water’s edge and the Boulevard be closed off entirely It is a point to watch carefully. This is the tract which is under ; contemplation right now for sale. It is a wonderful develop- ment although there must be , some filling in of the swampy area just behind the Boulevard. Just for the iun of it let’s make a prediction. Here’s hoping three instead of just patching, stoppage Jarge hotels just like the Casa of the city dump system on High-| Marina are erected along this wayyNumber One (Stock Island),’ stretch and that small beautiful repair of the city dock at the homes spring up around each re- south end-of Duval street, initia: | sort hotel just as has happeried tion-ef the Aquarium and Botan-|in the Martello Towers section ical Gardens projects for the tour-" an the ‘stree' the westward ists, street lighting of thé »maia’ of ‘the Casa. @ we do not street “White Way”!

They have held off with all these reports that the Navy would fill all hotels with families but thus far this has not been accomplished. The business which hotelmen in Key West are getting is principally overnight business. People come here, ta a short tour of the city, stay over- night and then turn around and g0 back.
