THE COCOA SPIRIT

Cocoa is entitled to be listed among the most
progressive communities in all Florida The reason
for this is the recent carrying of bond election for
100000, the vote being 38l for to 80 against,
for comprehensive program of road and bridge
construction. During recent years Cocoa has
brdged the Indian River, thus opening up Mer-
ntts island to close contact with the remainder
of Florida. There are two more rivers or lagoons
between Merritts island and the Atlantic ocean
and this 100000 will not only provide addi-
tonal roads but will enable Cocoa district to bridge
these streams and open the way to another stretch
of beach the equal Of the.famous beaches at Day-
tona, Ormond St. Augustine and Pablo The
distance is more than seven miles from the mainland
at Cocoa across the intervening islands and lasoons
but there is no more romantic country anywhere in
Florida Another thing these new bridges will do
is to enable everybody who SO desires to visit the
famous Cape Canaveral lighthouse and cove, said
to be the only harbor between Jacksonville and Key
West and little bit Of Florida heretofore almost
inaccessible In celebrating the bond victory the
Cocoa Tribune calls attention to the fact. that Co.
Goa probably takes the prize for progressiveness
because the district has only four hundred voters
yet these four houndred have already voted bonds
tor roads and bridges in the amount cf $4,000
therein lies the explanation as to why Cocoa is
growing and expanding.

of unusual interest in its spirit and method as
well as its usefulness.
The promoter of the plan is Samuel Utermyer,
a corporation lawyer, who vans no profit out of

on the jobs for less than their established wage
rate, or give extra time for nothing. Manufac-
turers of nearly all the materials needed have
agreed to cut their prices far below the current

step.
The most remarkable thing about it is The gen.

SHARING THE CREDIT

There was recently mailed to every section of
Florida by the Florida Development Board at
jacksonville a protest against the action of the
United States Shipping Board in using the gov
ernments money to discriminate against Florida
by advertising in newspapers and magazines winter
tours to Central and South America in ships owned
by the board Obviously there could be no objec-
ton to people travelling to South America or any
other portion of the world if they so DESIRE but
here was case of the shipping board entering into
the passenger business against established lines and
for the sole purpose of endeavoring to make a
showing for this highly dscredited wing of our
national government. The action of the Florida
Development Board in calling public attention to
the situation brought forth instant action on the
part of Florida's delegation at Washington with
the result that Senator Duncan u. Fletcher and
Congressman Joe Sears started the ball rolling so
effectively that the plans of the shipping board to
boost their business at the expense of any one sec
ton of the country was practically abandoned. On
the authority Of the Ocala Banner complaint was
made on January y by the National Marine As
ISOLATION that government officials in many in
stances patronze foreign vessels in preference to
those of cur own country, whose interest is their
duty to promote. The example thus set can only
have an adverse effect upon the development of an
adequate merchant marine
The Banner properly adds that if government
officials will net patronze their own boats, why
waste hundreds of thousands CT dollars of the peo-
ples tax money trying to get the general travelling
public to use their ships.
An aspect of the situation of local interest is that
the attention Of the Florida Development Board
to this matter of discrimination against Florida was
first directed by the Lakeland Chamber of Com
merce and there is now on file in the Chamber CT
Commerce letter of acknowledgement to that ef-
