Everglades National Park a Key Florida Asset
Ernest F. Coe and the Tropic Everglades Association trace the Everglades National Park project from its 1920s beginnings to federal approval. The plan envisions a state commission to acquire land in Dade Monroe and Collier counties and transfer title to the United States, with governor appointed members and no substantial pay. It highlights strong support from lawmakers, agencies, scientists, and national park groups, predicting multi million dollar yearly tourism and major public interest.
