WASHINGTON, Nov. II. Secretary
lansing announced today that the state
department was making every effort to
gather details on the sinking OF the
Ancona. The department does not
know the source Of. information CON
tanned in consular despa tches and des-
patches from Ambassador Page at
Rome and Is kept undetermined how
many Americans are lost. 1t is en-
tirely without official advices as to the
sinking or the nationality Of the sub
marine which torpe doed the ship. Adj
vices from Malta, Bizerta, Rome and
Naples all contain fragments Of infor-
nation.
Statements will be taken from survi-
.ors wherever they may land and the
United States will gather all available
information before taking the matter
up with any foreign government.

He shot and killed his uncle, and
those who know the details Of the
tragedy, many Of them at any rate,
believe that budding should never
have been convicted. They claim that
he should have been acquitted, for he
shot in self-defense. III +
However. budding wore the stripes
and when he got out OF prison he
came forth with a purpose. a very
high and noble one, tosassists the fam
lies OF men in prison. President
Wilson was much interested not only
in the man who had come back - but
what he has undertaken to do. He
asked the ex-conyict many questions
and was eidently impressed with the
ANSWERS given. Dud ding is an intelli-
gent, well-born man and holds his
head high, looks straight into the
eyes. and talks fuently. He and the
president talked about the work be-
ing done by Dud ding for about twen-
ty minutes, a length Of time which
proved that President Wilson was in

Editor Holly is Unjust


Bob Holly Of the Sanford Her
aid, is unjust to Gov. Gilchrist in
saying that che tried to belittle
the influence of the newspapers
and that he "stated that there is
little to be gained by the state pa
pers advertising the candidates. =
Both charges are unfounded, and
We challenge our Sanford name
sake to quote the exact language
used by Gilchrist that can be dis
torted to prove the charges.
Editor Holly has simply mis-
understood Gilchrist' S effort to ex-
plain that the law limiting his
campaign expenses to 100000
leaves him very little for newspa-
Iper advertising. He is real
friend to the newspapers, and that
he places high value on them
was shown during his campaign
for governor by the very liberal
advertising patronage which he
gave them.
His attitude towards the press
contrasts strikingly with that of
Senator Fletcher, who, not very
long ago, made a speech bitterly
denouncing the newspapers; also,
with that of the so-called progress
sive element of the Florida Dem
ocracy, which is now represented
by Senator Bryan and Gov.
Trammell. Newspaper organs of
these progressives, only a few
years ago, took the position that
all other newspapers not support
ing their candidates were either
owned by the corporations, con-
trolled by them, bribed by them
or afraid of them. That classifi-
cation of the newspapers which
did not support Broward, Stock
ton and N. P. Bryan was openly
proclaimed by Claude L'Engle,
who, at the time, was the journal
istic spokesman for those leaders,
and not one Of them took the trou-
Bile to repudiate what Claude said.
They tacitly approved of it.
If there is any hostility towards
the newspapers, any contempt en-
tertained for them by any OF the
present aspirants, it is by those
candidates who still train with the
so-called progressive element of
the party. While running for
governor and while serving as
governor, Gilchrist proved his
friendship for the newspapers.
See his messages to the legislature
and read the campaign literature
which he is now sending out.
Give him justice, Brother Holly.
