receipts at Pensacola daily to the
consuming world very much on the
plans Of the Savannah and Jackson
vile boards of trade, but strictly with
out reference to the values of naval
stores at any of the other places, and
let Pensacola's receipts sell for their
true value to the consuming world.
Yes, II will take some time to make
this open market an established sue
cess. We must first give 1t publicity
throughout the consuming world, SO
that the consumer can locate his
buyer in Pensacola to avail them
selves of the daily offerings"
Asked If the big undertaking could
be financed by local men and whether
or not help would be required, Mr..
Mitchell said:
TT will very likely need some help
and support at first, but as the step
Is for the good of the naval stores in
dustry and Pensacola, you can rest as
sured that the support will be forth
coming when called for.
There are at present plans being
considered along these lines, and
their adoption. and successful opera
ton mean that Pensacola's naval
stores trade will be forever free from
the present unsatisfactory closed
port method of trading.
THE benefit accruing to the indus
try as a whole from the present con-
dition." said Mr.. Mitchell in conclud-
ing, may not be felt in a week or
a month, but In the years to come the
naval stores trade will look back on
the present time and realize that the
hardships experienced now, resulted
IN placing the industry on nrm
foundation from which no man can
move it."

Sacramento, Cal, May Had Sec
rotary Bryan succeeded in his mission
to California and induced the state
legislature to pigeonhole all bills re-
stricting the right of Japanese to own
real property in the state. it Is likely
that a much more drastic law would
have been placed on the statute books
of California than will be the case
with Bryans long trip apparently a
failure .--..
The initiative and referendum are a
part of California law. They may be
invoked at any time, and frequently
are. Had the legislature failed to act,
undoubtedly a most drastic bill would
have been initiated and placed before
the people for their ratification. It is
generally conceded that such a bill
would receive a good popular ma jority.
Feeling against the japanese runs
high in California. They do not
Americanize and in many lines Of
work are dangerous competitors to
Americans. Only a few Californians
care to see the japanese of the state
grow in numbers, Importance and
wealth.
In view of these facts the attitude
Of Governor Johnson toward Secretary
Bryan and the 1atter's proposals be-
comes clear.
Washington, May despite the re-
buff handed to Secretary Bryan by
the California legislature, the White
House continues in it's attitude that
California must not jeopardize treaty
relations with Japan:
It is believed that Viscount Chinda,
the Japanese ambassador, will be
sounded out as to the probable recep-
ton of the Webb bill in Japan, and
the officials of the state department
may render an opinion as to whether
the language employed in the pending
anti-alien bill in the California legis-
lature could be construed as dis
elimination or in conflict of treaty
obligations.

Clear and peaceful. calm and bright,

And the fragrant breath of the summer

And the beauty OF nature everywhere:
With the whippoorwills call on the

And the OWLS wild boot from the lone

While the frogs are croaking. soft and

And the twinkling stars are shining
