CITY DERIVES
MUCH BENEFIT
FROM COTTON
Secretary Chamber of Com
merce Writes National
Bank of Commerce.

What the city derives from hand
ling export cotton and the great ben
eft to be derived by this business
is shown in a letter sent by Secretary
Jas. F. Phillips of the Chamber of
Commerce to President Goodhart OF
the National Bank of Commerce. The
letter is the result of the advertise
ment of the bank recently appearing
in The Journal and it is as follows:
Pensacola, October 8, 1915.
Mr.. r. w. Goodhart, President Ma
tional Bank of Commerce, Pensa-
cola, Florida.
Dear Sir: l have just read with
much interest your open letter to the
merchants Of Pensacola, published in
The Journal of the 9th, and am 40
much impressed with the value to the
city Of your policy of making loans
on cotton that / am writing this, also
an open letter, to lay before you and
the general public a few facts in re-
gard to the cotton BUSINESS that dc
not yet seem to have been recognized
Very few Of our citizens realize the
true value to the city of the cotton
exported through Pensacola. They
understand, of course, that when the
farmer sells his cotton at a good
price he is able to pay his merchant
or take up his notes in the country
bank, and thus get the money int
general circulation, but it does not oc,
cur to them that export cotton in it
self moving from the interior direct
to shipside or through the Aansacols
compress, is one of the city's mos

CITY PROBE IS
DEVOID Of ANY.
BIC SENSAT|ON
Street Foreman Showed He
Had Followed All
Precedents.

Although the dozen witnesses
which had been called in the probe of
the city payrolls were questioned at
length in the open session of the
board of city commissioners yester-
day, about the only development of
moment was the fact that sick men
are carried on the city payrolls, de-
spite the stringency of the city's
bank accounts. The street foreman,
Danny Jones, however, in his ex-
PLANTATION said that he was simply
following out the longtime prece-
dent of the department, and did
never think he was doing wrong.
One thing which the street foreman
wanted to impress upon the people
who crowded into the city council
chamber was the allegation and as
surance that he had received moth
ing that was not coming to him In a
fair and square manner.
There was one point developed
however, which was left unexplained
It was shown that the city operates
eight drays and consequently employs
eight drivers. Each or the men be-
fore the commissioners was a driver
There were thirteen working days ID
the half month under investigation
consequently the number of working
days totalled 104 days. The time the
regular drivers were sick and extra
men employed numbered 1S days, thus
making a total of 122 days put in By
the regulars and extras, whereas the
time sheets show a total of 1872 days

work and the crookedness and cor
ruption that prevails both on the part
of certain contractors and labor
union officials.
The first bulletin deals with the
Building Construction Employers
assn and simply lays the foundation
for other bulletins which will follow.
The next bulletin will be devoted to
Simon O'Donnen, president of the
Building Trades Council, and will
show, it is announced, pictures of his
fiat buildings and few historical
matters concerning his connection
with organized labor.
The labor men say they are getting
out these bulletins because they can
not get fair treatment from the loop
trust papers.
The first bulletin shows how the
Building Constructors assn has
laws that so bind the member that he
is absolutely helpless to act fairly or
to do what he wishes to do with a
contractor or labor. 1t points to the
enormous income the association has
from it's tax of one-tenth of one per
cent on all contracts and inquiries as
to what is done with the fund which
has been so created.
1t also delves into the Trades Union
editions of November, 1914 and 1918.
1t quotes bylaw of the association
as saying no association member can
buy tickets for benefit from a union
man, make direct or indirect contri-
buttons to any labor organization or
representative or purchase advertis-
ing in any labor paper.
