earn more than one million annally.
In a statement tonight McAdoo

Fred erick Kaufman, chairman of the
board of directors of the Georgia PUN

for the purpose of making some OBJ
servations, confirmatory Of the work
done in this city and vicinity by w. J.
Davis, a representative Of the COM
pany. who has been in the city Tor tho
Past few weeks.
The project, when launched will be
one Of the greatest Industries In Pen
sacola: the erection Of "a paper mill.
Mr.. Kaufman did not say definitely
last night just where the mill would
be erected, as several sites are under
consideration and the options on tho
many thousands of acres OF timber
land had not been closed.
But there is no question as to tho
erection OF the plant. Mr.. Kaufman,
before he left New York, had made
al arr ugements for the financing OF
the pr iect. Pensacola held out tho
best prospects and it was here that tho
erection OF the mill was decided upon.
Mr.. w. J. Davis stated last night
that the prospects for the construction
of the mill were excellent. There is
a spirit OF cooperation throughout
this section which presages the con-
of an industry which has
been a necessity and an enterprise
which has been neglected It Is now a
practical certainty
The Georgia Pulp Wood Company Is
at s1,0OO,OO0 and have tim
Der rights covering over 100000 acres
Mr.. Kauffmann will look over tho
local situation. and then spend several
days in the adjoining counties. There
isl every prospect" said Mr.. Davis, a.
of the company at the
San Carlos .ast night, that Pcnsa-
cola will soon have an up-to- date pa
per mill"
Mr.. Kauffmann will be in the city
for several days.

1t will then go to the assembly and
finally to the governor, who has stated
that he will sign the measure at once.
The phrase Ineligible TO citizen ship
IS avoided in the Webb bill by provid-
ing two descriptions Of aliens and de-

As the treaty between the United
States and Japan specifies that land
may be acquired or leased only for
residential purposes or for factories

FEAR OF ATTACK
Big Cannon Mysteriously Disappears,
Causing Great CONSERVATION at
Chihuahua City.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

FL Paso. Texas, April 20.-Chihuahua
City is in fear Of a constituuonalist
attack and it developed today that one
reason for this fear is the disappear
ance of the big cannon, known as "El
Nino." Constitutionalists captured this
gun from some point on the Parral
ranch of the Mexican Central railroad.
Now the whereabouts Of 'El Nino' is
worrying the Chihuahua City federals.
Refugees arriving here today, some
by automobile, give information show
ing that there is serious ground for
fear of this attack. The constitution
aIists have recaptured Jiminez, an i'm
portant junction joint on the Mexican
Central, they still retain Santa Rosalie
and they stretch from a point near
Perral northward to Bachimba, thirty
miles below the city or Chihuahua
They have prevented the federals at
Parral thus far from advancing a sim
gle step toward the relief of Chihua-
hua, City.
In the mining district the Parr.f
branch of the Mexican Central has
been almost completely destroyed by
coastitutionalists.
