  • Destination Casinos in South Florida: Findings of Fact and Recommendations
    Destination Casinos in South Florida: Findings of Fact and Recommendations The Dr. Antonio Jorge Social and Economic Development Council, Miami-Dade County Advisory Board ABSTRACT This presentation intends to share the relevant experience of other cities around the world in dealing with casinos. If destination casinos do come, what are the terms that would be best for the people of Miami-Dade County and the State of Florida? Destination casinos attract visitors from outside of the locality where they are located. Only about 15% of the gamblers in casinos in Atlantic City and Las Vegas are local residents, but 83% of the gamblers on riverboats in Illinois are local. South Florida already has casinos directed toward local people. The current debate is about destination casinos that would attract affluent tourists. This document does not take any position regarding whether we should have destination casinos or not, but we want to show what the consequences might be for allowing the new forms of gambling.

    ^VOICB MAY 21, 1976 25c VOL. XVIII No. 11 19 new cardinals to receive red hats Monday at Vatican VATICAN CITY-(NO-When Pope Paul VI creates 19 new cardinals in special ceremonies on May 24, he will preside over an event that he himself has stripped of much of its pageantry. In 1969 Pope Paul abolished much of the finery of the cardinalate. Pope Pius XII dispensed with trains, but Pope Paul did away with watered silk robes. Huge red wide- brimmed hats, ermine capes, and crimson shoes with silver buckles also went the way of the cardinals' courts of the history books. Some glitter remains, however. The three ceremonies associated with elevation to the College of Cardinals are the secret consistory at which the Pope formally creates the new cardinals, the public con- sistory at which he gives the cardinals their hats, and the concelebrated Mass at which the new cardinals receive their rings of office. These ceremonies, embodying the ritual and symbols handed down over centuries, are among the most impressive the Roman Catholic Church offers. THE SECRET or ordinary consistory begins the sequence at 9:30 a.m. Monday, May 24. The cardinals-elect wait with their relatives and friends in the Pierluigi Nervi Audience Hall, as Pope Paul calls together the present college of cardinals in the Consistory Hall of the Apostolic Palace, to inform them ceremonially of his decision. Once the names have been announced and Pope Paul has delivered a homily, later made public, the papal secretary of state, Cardinal Jean Villot, will take the nomination cards to the new cardinals.
