President, Zionist Organization
of America
One cannot look back on the year
just elapsed without experiencing,
to an 'immeasurable degree, sense
of close spiritual kinship with those
of our people who suffer and Ian
guish in the hell holes of Europe,
as we'll as with those valiant sons
of Israel who do battle in the land
of Israel, seeking to provide and
assure permanent security for our
people.
And yet it is not to the past that
we should look on this day. From
the Jews of Palestine we must draw
strength and confidence in the flu
ture. The Yishuv looks to us not
only for strength of numbers and
strength of financial support, but
also for an unwavering moral soli-
darity with them. They must know
that if an all-out struggle is re-
quired, the Zionists in America
stand with them until our goal has
been achieved-firm and final
establishment of the national rights
of the Jewish people to Palestine.
In this grim and determined
mood American Jews enter the year

Miami's concerted drive to secure
the ferry / think this would be
the greatest mistake the Gulf
Atlantic Transportation Company
could make. For one thing six
hours on the water is much more
desirable than sixteen hours, as
would be the case if Miami were
the terminal. No one wants a
long sea trip especially when a
large percentage of the motoring
public is involved. How much
faster to drive over the Overseas
Highway and take a short 80
mile trip over. Since the passen-
gers would be taken over in their
own autos rather than by indi-
vidual passenger service the Key
West terminal is to be preferred.
If it were passengers only,
Miami's huge tourist population
would become factor. There
has been lot of secrecy in the
new company and it well be that
Miami is behind it all.
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1946-04-11

Key West was finally approved
by CAA. according to a March
news release. Approval came
from the Inter departmental
Traffic Control Board Regional
Committee. / hear local Naval
forces helped to accomplish this.
Thus commercial traffic has a
direction finder Qocated at the
south end of White street, which
routs all traITic through Key
West. Pan American flies through
this area. Yet commercial air
craft does not have a regularly
open field available to them to
land here.

MIAMI AFTER FERRIES

Comes now the scuttlebutt that
Miami is very much interested in
operation of the Gulf Atlantic
Transportation Company out of
their city. These ferries which
were promised Key West may
thus be lost if more concerted
action to secure facts is not eX-
pended. The option at Porter
Dock Company expires June /.
There has been no attempt made
thus far to activate the option.
Miami sources from a number of
points are deeply interested in
the ferry and have much infor-
nation on it. One city official
overheard a conversation in a
Miami bank last weekend on

KELLY, Feb. 16.-Approximately
100 Bladen county farmers met in

map their next step in campaign

Cape Fear river Ievee above and
below Elwell's Ferry - breaks
which for the second time since
September have inundated several

Called by Leon D. Smith, Eliza

review of recent efforts to in
terest the Federal government in
the project and also accounts OF
the latest efforts to obtain state
aid through the Highway depart

The four and onehalf- mile long
levee, built originally in 1914, went
out at IL places during the floods
in September of last year. It is
owned by the Lion Swamp Drain
