PRAISES WILCOX

PRAISES WILCOX
Editor, The Citizen:
| called upon Mr.. Wilcox in his
office on a friendly visit today,
Friday. never have seen any,
one so enthrsed as Mr.. Wilcox
was over the various projects that
the administration is attempting
to push as fast as means permit.
| felt as though he was more of
real "Conch" than l was be-
cause enthusiasm emanated from
the deepest of feelings that lie in
the close ties of his love for Key
West and his friends there.
Mr.. Wilcox has some of the OPP
timism we need in bringing Key
West back to its days of former
splendor. Mr.. Wilcox remarked,
with the building of the Over
seas Highway, the sewerage and
the numbers of Improvements and
the wonderful faith the people of
Key West have shown in them
selves and their initiatives, they
may look forward with the great
est assurance that in the not far
distant future Key West will be
mecca for thousands of people,
and the days when fear gripped
the hearts of those as to what the
future would bring, while now
hope and happiness was destined
for them"
One remark of his pleased me
highly and we may use it in our
publicity program; ''Key West has
charm all of its own, it is nei-
Their South American, nor North /;
it is a combined charm that warns
the heart and gives the peace of
mind that can be found 10 where
else"
| admire "the man" who has
fought so valiantly for US and 1
believe we really tried to show
our appreciation to him by giving
him such an overwhelming vote
and returning him to Congress.
Mr., Wilcox great desire is to
return to Key West to visit his
friends and enjoy some Of. our
fine fishing.
With ibest wishes for as man
who is from the people and for
the people, ever ready ana alert
to give his best efforts for their
needs. Such a man is rare to-
day.

useful and interesting feature.

thor to master his subject, in the
interests of accuracy and in JUS
tice to Florida.
"The Sunshine State" he in
forms us, "has more than a thou
sand miles of coast-line and an
elevation varying from tidewa-
ter to more than 25 feet"
Oh, much more. The inhabit-
ants of Mount Dora, soaring to-
ward the shakespeare for at least
800 feet, won't like it much if
they are lowered a few feet less
than the highest point on the Flor
ida Keys, and the explorers of our

than 1000 miles of coast-line.
