I’ve heard about those 50,000 tourists: you had rushing down here all winter, so you don‘t have to tell whag..beca of the tur- tles. Theyive }Notth with the tourists, .ant pags of people whd never get near a_ turtle steak are going to be told how godd it tastes. jj “Seriously, though, ami have been hearing‘a lot of nice things about Key West from Earl Adams, Singleton, and while Doe Clem- mer was up at the Urmey Phar- macy he was bemoaning the dis- tance from Miami to the Key West Yacht Club. John Penne- kamp every so often comes up with pleasant reminiscences about this unique island city. “All in all, Key West and Mi- | ami have a great deal in com- mon today. Their future is going to be more strongly linked than their past. For the future of these two South Florida cities— their future growth and presper- ity, if" Wrapped up in‘a mutality of initerests. - What is good for Key West is bound te be good for Miami. And vice versa. We in Miami are de- lighted to seé jsp: many, tourists going to Key tourist tide in running high. And | the more who come to Key West, the more who will pass through Miami. “The day is coming, too, when Key West will reap a more per- manent benefit from the tourist tide, just as Miami did. The win- ter visitor who gets that touch of the sun and'‘sand between his} toes ends up by buying property and that means sound economic improvement for any communi- ty. “Key West's biggest property ; lure for the Northern visitor is still largely undeveloped. This huge natural resource is your eys — and from your point of | iew, rse, keys chose: t | Key NWad aR ihe ‘oney >! ap about. RLY Het'\long before from Steve; ist.

In the long run, this kind of} solid growth will be good for Key West and good for Florida. “Maybe the opening of that| | long-delayed ear ferry from Key West to Havana — which should be in operation next win- ter, will be the opening gun for such a key-rush. Certainly when that happens | you’re going to look back on this| winter’s record 12,000 cars a| month over the Overseas High- way and think the number small. When that traffic dotbles,’as “it most surely will, Key West will rightful place as one of the great winter resorts of this coun- try.e “Key West, with its large Cuban population, and its heri- tage of assistance in freeing Cuba from Spain, should enjoy all the | rights and privileges of a “most favored city” with Cuba when imports and exports start mov- ing by truck and boat. The loss of the Florida East Coast railroad will be made up easily by the } ; facility with which trucks can troll up that Overseas Highway, and that will be-a fine thing for both Key West and Miami. | | “The Herald does not want to !replace the local community | | fewspapers.
