The money thus obtained, assuming that the legislature passes and the governor approves such a bill, will be.used in building roads. No. other thing ‘could re- sult in the development of the upper and lower -chains of the Florida Keys to as great an extent as the con- struction of roadways would be. On every key, except a few small strips, over which the Highway passes, lateral roads would be an opening wedge to many a develop- ment. Let us consider Big Cop- pitt, a key that lies only six miles north of Key West. Hundreds of Key Westers have bought lots on Big Cop- | pitt, and many of the pur- |ch sers have informed The | Citizen that they would con- \struct lodges or cottages or cabins if lateral roads were | built connecting the lots with ithe Overseas, Highway: What is true of Big Cop- _ is true also of other keys. Owners of many lots or | plots are waiting to have ac- | cess to the highway to start developments. In thost in- | stances, ° the lots or plots | are without even a pathway | leading to the highway. Development of land fol- jlows the building of roads. That is a truth known to !everybody who has had anything to do with the im- provement of real estate. jlected by the state in gas- oline taxes.

He assured the public that he would not be- come involved in political | matters and that, therefore, he could not be “considered a candidate for political of-| fice.” The-stute General is nat without knowledge of the speculation that has at go- | ing gyound about the bility tHat*he might be ed-as avcandidate for [Pres dents Taking cognizance of this, he declared, “The pop- | ular conception that n@ mat- | ter what the man says, he} can be drafted as a candi- date for some political of- fice would be without any | force with regard to me.” He} then applied the clincher; | saying, “I never could be} drafted.
