PERSHING On
WINNING WAR
AMERICAN COMMANDER SAYS
HARD AND FORCEFUL BLOWS
BY UNITED STATES TROOPS
ARE NEEDED.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Paris, Aug. 18.-Major General
John J. Pershing, the American com
mander, told The Associated Press
today that the war can be won only
by hard and forceful blows delivered
by a well-trained American army
working in conjunction with the allied
armies.
Deploring the lukewarmness of the
American people in regard to the war
General Pershing added:
Every man, woman and child
should support the administration in
its determination to arm and equip
the American army and to keep up
it's morale and that of the allied
armies. This war will not be won
by talk or by subscribing to the Red
Cross. The American people must
come to a full realization of what the
war means. 1t can be won only by
striking hard and forceful blows, not
otherwise"
The general was very emphatic in
the interview, which lasted but a few
minutes.

Washington Bureau,
The Pensacola Journal

Washington, D. c.. Aug. 18.-De-
claring that he would undertake to
show the people of Florida that since
he has been governor, he has been
guilty of offenses which warrant his
impeachment, Congressman Frank
Clark, of Florida, today addressed a
letter to Governor S. J. Cats, in an
swer to certain charges made against
the Florida representative by the
governor which fairly tingle with in
terest. Mr.. Clark is interested in
having the governors son removed as
captain of Company B, of the Florida
state militia, and has so expressed
himself in the papers of his state, be-
cause he does not believe young Cats
properly qualified.
The cross fire which has been 60
ing on for several days between the
governor and the congressman today
drew the following letter to the gov

BOY HAS A CLOSE
CALL FOR HIS LIFE

A ten-year-old newsboy named
Murphy came near being badly in
jured yesterday afternoon at Sis
o'clock, just south of the Romano
street intersection of Palafox, when
he darted out from the sidewalk on
the west side of the street to sell a
paper to a prospective customer on
a street car. A car driven by J. H.
Sheriff., which was on the west side of
the street, and which was travelling
south, struck the voungster and threw
him under the car. Scra2pling at the
top of his voice, he attracted a large
number who thought he had been Sc
riously hurt. A number of blue
jackets who were nearDy, ran to the
boys assistance and lifted him from
under the hood of the car. He was
placed in the car and wss then driven
to D'Alemberte's drugstore where a
physician examined him. It was
found he was not injured as much as
was at first thought.
The incident was investigated by
Officers Burke and Fillingim, and
they reported it unavoidable, and that
Mr.. Sheriff. was in no way to blame.
The boy ran directly in front of the
approaching auto, but the driver re-
GREETED exceedingly having his car
strike the little victim and did every
thing to see that he was given the
best possible attention.

SPLIT-LOG DRAG

Work Only Temporary, 1t
is Admitted, a Concrete
Road Early Probable.

That excellent progress is being
made on the bayshore. road by the use
of the split log drag was the state
ment to The Journal yesterday by
County Commissioner H. E. Candy,
under whose supervision the work is
being done. Mr.. Candy stated that
the recent rains have helped the work
greatly and that splendid results are
being obtained
."Of course" said Mr.. Candy, "the
work we are doing is only temporary,
for the county needs a concrete road
to the navy yard, and as soon as the
means for doing the work are worked
out, | believe it will be done. While
there may be some difference of opin-
ion concerning the route of the road,
and the methods of financing the
proposition, I believe everyone will
agree on the necessity for the work,
and help, to have it done.

nearly half million dollars a month,

Many truck growers will testify to the
value of the station trade, which per
mits them to market their produce
at good prices. For this reason,
believe the plan to pave this road will
receive support from all quarters, as
citizens of Pensacola will certainly
admit the value of the station, and the
necessity of improving the road so as
to fit it for the requirements of the
government"
