Pan American
Highway Plan
Started Here
WIN. r. PORTER. L. P. ART
MAN. T. J. BRYsoN ORGAN
lied PAN AMERICAN HIGH
WAY ASSOCIATION

Some of the earliest publicity
on the Pan American Highway
which is contemplated now by
the Gulf Atlantic Transportation
Company to Cuba and Yucatan
was published here by The Key
West Citizen and Artman Press
around 1927.
At that time William R. Porter,
then president of the First Ma
tional Bank; l.. P. Artman. Pub
Usher of The Key West Citizen;
and Thomas J. Bryson, late edi-
tor of The Citizen, formed Pan
American Highway Association
to push eventual completion of
the highway.
Mr.. Bryson was active in sup
plying travel magazines with
stories of the beauties of the trip
when the highway was complet-
ed and also of the huge job it
would be (and still is) to push the
highway to completion and allow
American tourists to drive from
America to South America.
Principal thought of the pub
licity was that the route which
would be through Key West and
Cuba and over to Yucatan with
seagoing ferries would be an
American Atlantic Coastline sec
ton of the Pan American High
way.
Maps were printed of the
route and pamphlets distributed
to interest highway agencies
throughout the country.

Chester Bowles testified today
before the senate committee, con-
sidering the proposed contin-

year, that Henry Ford, II, presi-
dent of the Ford Motor Com

DETROIT, Feb. 20.-Hundreds

Leaders of the union said the

affected only the three largest
companies, including Borden's,
which supplies 100000 consumers

Borden officials stated that
they had not been warned that
the walkout would occur, and
that it left the company in
position of not being able to sup
ply any of its customers, except
those at hospitals.
Union leaders are trying to
persuade the strikers to return to
their jobs, pending negotiations
for higher wage scale.

by city commission and was for
a beer and wine license.
Tom Hanley, who operated The
Cabana Bar at COS Duval street.
His illness was testified to by DR..
Harry c. Galley. Mr.. Hanley sold
the Cabana Bar February IL to
Harry Goldberg, Carlos Gelrich
and George Curry.
Sam Moss, Tropics Bar at Du-
val and Angela streets. Mr.. Moss,
whose illness was certified by DR..

to transfer his license to Gordon
Wolfson.
Action taken on these two APP
plications was to refer them to
the city manager for investiga-
ton before being granted the
transfer request for liquor lie
