pointed out are a violation of the

ter will be taken up during the next
Legislature, and an effort made toward
the introduction of bills TO put a stop

Mr.. White stated that he was much
impressed with the hearty cooperation
extended by the Rotary, Kiwanis,

To Build Cities
THE St. Petersburg people certainly
know how to build town." said Mr..
White and Pensacola could learn
much by studying their methods. Those
people down there are for st. Peters
burg. They talk st. Petersburg-they
It is a fine town.

has to offer, 1t cannot so much as COM
pare to Pensacola.
1--WE have a water front that is far
beyond any in that part of the country
and scenic beauty which is unrivalled
there.
I'VE want to get together here and
work for our town as they are working
for theirs. They talk st. Petersburg
products. We want to talk Pensacola
products.
"If we would work for what we have
here-for the industries we have al
ready secured, and spend our money
here, it would not be long before we
would have a big town.
I'VE have a Pensacola made cigar,
for instance but do we patronize the
Pensacola factory. as those people
down in South Florida patronize their
factories?
I'VE ought to talk up all the PEN
sacola products-and we have many, !
and we ought to boost the Pensacola
advantages.
North Shore 5oulevarde
zone thing 1 want to speak of right |
now is the North Shore Boulevarde |
1dAu A4Ol get DGCh AAOIl LIiS convention
until yesterday morning, so / missed !
the mass meeting. But I think that is
one Of the biggest things that has ever /
been agitated here
"In st. Petersburg, with water |
front that cannot compare to ours |
they have a shore drive-as they have |
in nearly every South Florida city. The |
North Shore Boulevarde would be one I
of the biggest assets possible to Pen
sacola and I am for 1t, first, last and
all the time.
IF we would build a boulevarde
along Escambia bay, in less than five
years we should see that shore line
built UP with summer cottages, and in
many instances all-the-year residences, i
and people would be attracted here 4
from all over the country
Lets all get together and pull for
Pensacola, as those people in South
Florida pull for their towns" i
