NEW YORK, JUNE 26.-THE
FLORIDA TROOPS HAVE BEEN
ORDERED TO START FOR THE
BORDER TOMORROW.
CENTRAL FLORIDA WILL
HELP TO SHOOT
Industries Lined Up to Help Nation
in Manufacture of Arms
and Ammunition

The industries of Central Florida,
especially those capable of turning
out munitions, are being lined up as
a part of the general preparedness
for war, and over the long distance
| telephone this morning the Star OBJ
tanned from ]. E. Jones, of Dunnellon,
superintendent of the Florida Power
Company, list of plants that have
been lined up todate in this section
of the state.
Mr.. Jones, member of the Amer
lean Institute of Electrical Engineers,
one of the organizations which Presi-
dent Wilson called on to assist with
preparedness, has been asked by Col.
Louis McLane, of ST. Augustine, to
enlist the services of the industries
in this section of the state. Co. Nc

AUTO PRICES MAY SOAR
HIGH SOON. SAYS. AGENT
Cost of Material Advancing and
Therefore Increases in Prices
Are Certain

That the purchaser of an automo-
bile will never have another chance to
get so much FOR his money or to buy
so cheaply, is the opinion of Mr. Nc
Kinnon, who distributes the bort car,
says the Times-Union. AS proof of
this sweeping statement, Mr.. McKin-
non calls attention to the sturdy, ef-
ficient car turned out today as COM
pared with their far less efficient pro-
totypes of few years ago. He also
expresses the opinion that his pres
ent condition cannot continue for
more than a short time, and he quotes
some figures, which make one wonder
why more manufacturers have not al
ready raised their prices.
"The cost of motors" says Mr.. Nc
Kinnon, "has gone up 15 per cent this
spring; steel has gone up 10 per cent;
tool steep has increased 200 per cent
The cost of radiators has gone up 40
per cent on account of the increase in
price of brass and copper; bearing
metal has increased 20 per cent
White lead has increased $50 pei
cent, and colors from 10 per cent to
500 per cent, and some cannot be OBJ
tanned at any price. Leather has gone
up 25 per cent, mohair for tops, p
per cent. All these materials enter
into the building of ar automobile,
The manufacturers must have them
or go out of business. He is paying
these high prices to get them and this
extra cost of manufacture mus soon
enter into the retail price to the con-
sumner.
Presumably you have the purchase
of an automobile in mind; to say that
it is good tip to place your order
now, is putting it mildly. You simply
cannot afford to delay at all if you ex-
pect to own your car at anywhere near
present market prices"

.0CALA WILL RECEIVE
A BIG ADVERTISEMENT
Seaboard Air Line in Manufacturers
Record will Promote City as
logical Point for a Large
Packing Plant

About the last week IN July the
Seaboard Air Line will run in the
Manufacturers Record, Baltimore, a
full page advertisement setting forth
the fact that Ocala is the logical
point in Florida for a meat packing
plant. L. r. Trammell, secretary of
the Marion County Board of Trade,
has just been advised of this by B. L.
Hammer, general development agent
of the Seaboard
Mr.. Hammer recently wrote to the
Board of Trade asking for data for
the advertisement, asking especially
to be informed as to Ocala's greatest
present industrial need, and was in
formed that packing plant was
wanted.
The copy for the advertisement
which will be published in the Man
ufacturers' Record reads as follows:
'The United States government has
in its official publication declared that
in the future the people of the United
States must look to the southeastern
section of the United States for a
reasonable cheap meat supply.
"F'lorida conditions for beef and
pork production are proven, and Mar
ion county is in the front ranks, and
it is claimed that $50 hogs and $4,000
cattle per annum could be furnished
an uptodate packing plant located at
Ocala-the logical Florida point for a
packing house.
Armour & company are now build
ing packing plant at Jacksonville.
"The figures upon meat shipments
into that section-the cattle ship
ments out of there-and the facts
bearing on this situation tell the story
tsIf interested in this proposition,
we shall be pleased to help verify the
claims of this section, one of the rich
est general farming and cattle raising
sections in all Florida, and that means
much"

Progressive Railway of the South

A CORRECTION


Cleanliness is next to Godliness,' .
but B. Goldman had begun to believe
that the people of Ocala knew nothing
of this maxim or proverb, for no one
was asking for his special offer on
Octagon soap. He looked at his ad-
vertisement again and found that the
printers were making him offer -
cakes of Octagon for Is cents with
each purchase of ST or more at his
Adjustment Sale. This should have
read "5 cakes of Octagon soap for Is
cents with each purchase of 81 or
more at this sale, as long as the sup
ply of soap lasts" The offer is now
in force for the balance of this week.

Ell Paso, June 26.-Gen. Pershing's
force Of about $4,000 men is ready for
action If necessary. According to the
best information here his southern
most outpost is near Elvalle, about
fifty miles from Colonia- -Dublan, the
main base. It's believed from Elvalle
a large mobile force may be pointed
eastward In a strategic position to-
ward the Mexican Central railroad.
Reports from the front say big
motor trains have been loaded for the
advance. Every available truck at
Columbus has been rushed to the
front. With lines paralleling for at
least $50 miles, rash action by some
subordinate commander, it is con-
sidered here, might at any time en-
broil the main commands. Command
ers have redoubled their vigilance to
prevent this.

Washington, June 26-War between
the United States and Mexico depends
upon formal declaration of policy by
Carranza. A response to the note
Secretary Lansing telegraphed to
Mexico City yesterday is expected
hourly.
The immediate release of American
cavalrymen captured at Carrizal will
be insisted upon. Officials explained,
however, that the course of the Unit
ed States would be determined large
ly by Carranza's final statement of
his intentions toward the American
expedition.
The war department at noon hadn't
received the letter from Captain
Morey giving the first American YER
sion of the Carrizal fight. Captain
Morey is safe in one of Gen. Per-
shing's camps. A complete report of
the engagement is expected soon.
The published text of the letter is
construed as indicating the Americans
were partly responsible for the clash.
The official account from Captain
Morey, however, will be the basis for
judgment, rather than hurried note
written by man expecting death.
The Mexican note saying that Car
rama personally directed General
Trevino to resist the movements of
American troops is the real issue. The
Washington government construes
this as formal avowal of deliberate
ly hostile action. Secretary Lansing's
not demands that Carranza state thru
diplomatic channels if this 10 his pur-

A STERN NOTIFICATION

Washington, June 26.-A demand
for the immediate release of the
American troopers taken prisoner at
Carrizal, coupled with stern notifca-
tion that the United States expects an
early statement of the purposes of
the Carranza government, was tele-
graphed to Mexico City yesterday by
Secretary Lansing.
General Carranza is required to
place himself on record formally, and
the plain intimation lies behind the
restrained language of Mr.. Lansing's
communication that force will be met
with force. Apparently, however, the
Washington government is determin-
ed that the de facto government shall
not evade responsibility before the
world if far is forced upon the United
Estates.
