NO APPROPRIATION ASKED;
CONGRESS NOT ''NIGGARDL1
~NANN~NAAAAAA4A :

Editor Pensacola Journal:
Referring to your article on naval |
aviation in today's paper, viii you
allow me to make an explanation re-
garding the paragraph in which you
quote me as saying that the reason
for the present comparative back
wardness Of aviation in the navy Is
on account Of "the niggardly policy
followed by congress in the past"
This Is not exactly accurate. I
think that what l said was, that this
condition is due to lack of congress-
ional appropriations IN the past. You
could hardly call this 'sniggardly,"
since no appropriation was asked for
that purpose, and refused, so far as
/ know. 1t would hardly be fair to
blame congress for not making APP
preparations which were not recon-
mended by the department. The
blame must lie mainly against prev
lous secretaries of the navy, and per-
haps against some of their advisers,
who failed to appreciate the import
ance of the aeronautic branch of the
service.
1t is not remarkable that private
capital has shown so little interest
in building efficient hydroaeroplane
motors, when there was no market in
sight to make necessary expenditures
profitable. Heretofore the attention
paidb Y the navy to aeronautics was
not such as to encourage any manu-
facturer to spend much money for hy-
droaeroplane experiments, hence it is
necessary that such amounts be now
appropriated as will enable the navy
to conduct adequate experiments for
itself, and win give to private man.
ufacturers prospect for sales suffi-
Gent to justify the experiment and
expenditure necessary for the produc-
ton of efficient motors.

introduced bill (Senate Bill No. 305)
which provided for pensions from $4,000
to $4,000 per annum, for veterans, and
$4,000 for widows, lessened the length of
residence required, and took away the
property limit of $4,000, prescribed by the
statute then in force.
This bill passed the House of Represen-
tatives unanimously.
Senator Hudson was one out OF three
members of the senate who voted against
it. His vote is recorded on page 1161, of
the Senate Journal of 1907. The Journal
does not show any effort whatever, on his
part, to even amend the bill; just straight
vote against it. In 1906, the year before
this bill became law, the State paid its
pensioners only 1888, 969.15. In 1908, the
first year after this bill became law, this
amount increased to $605, 32844 These
figures are from the printed reports of the
late comptroller, Hon. A. c. Groom.
Senator Hudson tells us that he was
reared under the traditions of the Old
South and that he is "imbued with the
progressive policies of the New South"
Which does the Senator think he repre-
sented in 1907, when he voted against the
bill for the benefit of the old soldiers and
sailors of the Confederacy and their
widows-the Old South or the New?
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1916-05-11
Does Senator Hudson Represent
The Old South or New?

Senator Hudson makes a statement that
is not borne out by the official record. He
claims that he stood as friend of the pen
sioners and had part in all legislation for
their benefit. His record shows that this is
not true.
In the official booklet just published by
the Secretary of State, Mr.. Hudson says:
I was member of the Senate COM
rnittee on Pensions in 1913 and helped
to pass the existing pension law which
is the most liberal we have ever had.
Since 1905, | have stood as the friend
of the pensioner and have had a part
in all of the legislation which makes it
possible for Florida's debt of gratitude
to be paid promptly, and more liberal
ly than in most States.
The honorable senator is mixed, either
in his dates or his record, or both. He was
not member of the Senate Committee on
Pensions in 1913, which consisted Of SEN
ators Mcleod, Bitch, L'Engle, Lindsay
and McCreary He naturally has 1913
somewhat on the brain, because that was
the year he voted for an increase in the
governors salary, and has been busy for
the last six months, off and on, trying to
explain away the provision in the State
Constitution that has brought into grave
doubt his eligibility to hold office of gov
ernor if elected
What part has Senator Hudson had in
all of the legislation which makes it posi-
bic for Florida's debt of gratitude to be
paid promptly and more literally than in
most States ?" to use his own language?
When the legislature of 1907 met, of
which Senator Hudson was member, the
Pension Department was working under
the law of 1901, which under rigid restric-
tions gave a limited number of Confederate
soldiers and sailors from $500 to 800 per
annum. A subsequent act gave widows
$4,000 per annum. Senator Broome, of
Gadsden, himself a Confederate veteran,

The Third District Needs

and private careers of these candidates; It
It not interested in the success or failure OF
either, but The Journal, like all OF West
Florida should be, is certainly interested
in the man who is to represent the Third
district in congress.
This district owes nothing to any man

Unusual capabilities are required OF a
man to make a good congressman Integ-
rity, energy, sobriety, a determination to
accomplish something worth while, and
the capacity of working in harmony with
other members, together with willingness
to remain servant of the people, and not
a dictator, are some of the many things a
representative in congress ought to have
Srnithwick possesses these qualities. He
is a plain man of the people, undertands
the needs Of the masses and may be de
pended upon at all times to work for the
interests of the whole district

AUTO HITS A POLE;
OCCUPAN UNHURT
MRS FREDERICK GILMORE
AND PARTY HAVE NARROW
ESCAPE WHEN CAR CRASHES
INTO POLE.

A slightly damaged car and shat
tered telephone pole, were the only
serious results of an accident in which
several persons miraculously escaped
death yesterday afternoon, when Mrs.
Frederick Gilmore, who was driving
a new Buick, ran into telephone
pole on the corner of Spring and
Jackson streets. With the exception
of Mrs. Gilmore, the occupants of
the car, Mrs. S. j. Gonzalez, Sister,
Nellie, and Frederick Gilmore, Jr.,
were thrown from the car by the
terrific force of the blow.
Mrs. Gilmore was going north on
Spring street when she saw a car ap-
preaching from Jackson street, driv-
en- by DIR. w. L. Address, and in at
tempting to take a short cut to avoid
what she thought might be a coils
ion, the car crashed into the tele-
phone pole, completely SCATTERING the
pole.
No one was injured, further than a
severe shaking up, and several small
abrasions of the skin, and shortly aft
erwards, Mrs. Gilmore and party
continued their sharply interrupted
ride. Mrs. Gilmore stated last night
that d. Address was in no way to
blame for the accident.

Protecting the People
From Colonization Frauds

Having secured pure and honest food for
its citizens, the United States government
is endeavoring to protect other classes
from the dishonest advertiser.
BY recent decision the supreme court
has held that even if a purchaser received
his moneys worth, exaggerated propa
ganda constituted fraud
The case was against the New South
Farm & Home Company, an orchard-sell-
ing concern in the southern part of Florida,
which made the usual wild representations
with which we are all familiar-for exam
pie: The lands and farms were not
swampy; the largest ocean steamers oper-
ating between New York and Jacksonville
could land at Palatka family could make
enough on one farm during the first year to
support itself and save money; three crops
year could be grown; every month of the
year was a growing month, that is, some
farm or truck product could be raised dur
ing each month of the year; the farms
were surrounded with orange and citrus
fruit groves and vegetable truck farms; the
farms had fine roads running through
them, were high and we'll drained, and on
the whole, like the lands Of Kansas, Ne
