/ The solution of the alien problem
lies in compulsory education. Oppor-
tunities for voluntary attendance will
not be more successful in the case OF
the adult than it would be in the case
of the child. The economic pressure
is of course greater on the adult than
on the child. Yet his needs are great
and his decisions regarding education
at the time of his arrival are crucial
National security and the growth of
democracy demand that the alien be
educated for American citizenship. We
have the machinery already provided
inNour public school plants. This ma
chinery is unused at the times when
the adults can best use it. The cost,
therefore, is small when compared
with the results possible. Because of
our allied interests with the nations
from whence we are getting most of
our immigrants, the present opportun-
ity is great. Action looking toward a
more effective system of assimilating
the alien should not be postponed.

FROM AN AAERlCAA FATHER

Letter from q father to all ,on- Iy son, a simple and typical eX pression of the broad-minded pa triotism and good sense of Amer ican fatherhood.
 My Dear Boy:
 In the matter of the Reserve Training Camp enlistment for service, follow your conviction . duty without fear or favor. Of course. your mother and l have had our anxieties and our heart aches over it all, as have thous- ands of other parents. But, from the first we have held ourselves ready cordially to support you in whatever decision you. should make. We have felt that you would decide for yourself, or leave the decision to the fortunes of the selective draft. as in your judgment was best.
 We still want you to make the choice for yourself There can be no doubt that in all questions of service and sacrifice the only true course is to reason the mat ter out with conviction. commit ting al1 things to Him whose ser. wants we are. and going forward with calmness and assurance of right, not looking back.
 l think all thoughtful and con scientious people are of this opin- ion, but human nature is not d. ways dependable, and we have not always the strength of char acter to do even the small things that we should. To determine the right in a big crisis of life is far more difficult when we real ize that the choice may lead to danger and deprivation. or to disappointment.
 Sometimes duty seems 10 call two ways, and often the seeming is real. Now and then we have obligations in more than one di- rection. In such a case. it seems to me that we should take the course that calls to the highest service and the greatest good. as well as we are able to judge it. not permitting personal claims. affections. or prejudices to inter- fere. The call to war is, we are taught, oLe of the supremest du- ties. perhaps II e most supreme.
 We want to help you make right decision. We want to SUD- port you in this decision. and we will. We do not want to infiu- ence you on personal grounds. We do not want to force you in to the service. We do not want to hold you back from going if you think you should. Do right as God gives you to see it. That was Lincoln's motto. No great CT authority among mere men ever lived.
 have no doubt that you have filed your application and that you will go ahead.
 We proudly go with you-how- oeit a bit full up at heart. But there are thousands like us. Once more. our love

vessels named.
A trip to Camp Walton and the up

the stay of tourists in Pensacola, and
it is a voyage looked forward to by
many. The ride is a constantly
changing view of beautiful scenery,
and tourists who have made the trip
were last evening telling prospective
first passengers of the beauties of
such voyage. One Of the stops will
be at the scene of the old stranded
iron bark Oban Bay, which has been
on the outside beach for some five or
six years. 1t always offers much in

LARGE SCHOONER
ARRIVES FOR CARGO

One of the large Palmer" vessels
reached port yesterday, 72 days from
Nice, France, consigned to the Stearns
Lumber Company. This vessel, while
being entered at the custom house
yesterday, was the subject of quite
an exciting story, details of which
were admitted with some reluctancy.
While on the voyage from Nice TO
Pensacola, it was related, the schoon-
er was stopped several times, always
by allied cruisers, at one time, il
was alleged suffering the ignominy
of a solid shot being fired across
her bow to bring her to a stop until
her papers could be examined. The
captain and members of her crew
discussed this experience with con-
siderable hesitancy.
The Mary E. Palmer, a vessel of
1877 tons, in command of Capt. Hun
ter, is the new arrival. She was first
reported off Mobile, but viii load at

Cane is king IN balmy Cuba. Fore
casts Of the coming crop place it at
100000 tons. The annual average
value of Cuban sugar prior to the
wa was $16O,000,OOO. The first year
of the war raised his to 1925, 200, 900.
Now it is expected that the crop will
go SITE, 100000. There are $500 900
people in Cuba. A single crop in the
United States bearing this per capita
production would amount to eleven
billion dollars.
No other export fen any Latin
american country equals that of
Cuban cane fields. Throughout the
sugar districts are be seen fat
cars loaded with the huge machinery
required for the greaS million dollar
mills. Millions are sometimes ex-
pended in equipment 70 get the cane
to the mills. Thousands of men,
armed with machetes, attack the
fields of a big plantation, in great
squads.
A number of men come into Cuba
every year for the cane cutting sea-
son, which lasts from the middle of
December to the middle of summer
but the labor available for the sugar
industry is not sufficient. In fact. the
shortage of labor today in Cuba is
the great handicap for any further
extension Of the sugar business in
the island
At the great sugar plant at Pres
ton, Cuba, there are 81 miles OF
standard gauge rock ballasted rail-
road extending from the cane fields
to the factory. There are eleven 45.

GALLAUDET A|RPLANE
Preliminary TEST

Tests with the new Gallaudet air
plane, recently arrived at the aero
nautic station, were conducted yes
terday morning by Lieut.. RAIDER, and
although no official announcement
has been made, the showing of the
machine was excellent.
The speed of the machine probably
attracted greatest attention, though
many mechanical details caused favor
able comment. On the first trial the
airplane with pilot and one passen-
ger attained speed of 30 miles an
hour, with the motor running at l.
500 T. p. m, with a maximum posi-
BILE speed of 2,100 r. p. m. Lieutenant
RAIDER stated last night to The Journal
that with the great speed attained
with the comparatively low running
speed that he did not push the motor
to the limit.
In minor details the machine en-
bodies developments of radical design
The passenger seat is placed on the
very front of the machine, while i'm
mediately behind is the pilot seat and
control. Back of the pilot is the
motor, with the propeller built in the
fuselage. The gasoline tank is in the
single pontoon, and the planes have a
decided backward flare.

where total of 5000 horsepower is
generated.
The cane juice is then conveyed to
the lining tanks which are feature
of the boiling house. The lime neu-
traEzes the sacid in the cane Juice.

ton mogul locomotives and strings of
cane cars that would extend for
miles if placed in a single line There
are wharves, docks, a lumber mill,
foundry, etc., besides the big sugar
mill. The plant has a capacity of
3,700 to $500 tons of cane each day.
1t produces from $500 to 5000 bags
of. sugar a day. A bag of crude
sugar as sent to the United States
for refining usually weighs $50 lbs.
and is SO per cent pure sugar. This
plant can produce, therefore, 100000
lbs. of sugar every "a hours, enough
to sweeten the coffee, milk, or choco-
late of everybody in the United
States.
To keep this factory supplied with
cane is a man's-siZed job. Trains of
cut cane are fed into the factory on
schedule time. On the other hand it
is the duty of the factory superin-
tendent to grind his cane as soon a.
it comes in and the big plant booms
along in the bright Cuban moonlight
just as hard as by day. At the Preston
plant two 25-ton electric cranes take
a whole load of cane out of car and
weigh it while it is suspended IN the
air. From the hopper the cane is
carried by cane conductor to giant
crusher where the stalks are sub
mitted to a pressure of $50 tons
After this it passes through the rolls
of the mill which are smoother thar
those of the crusher and where it is
submitted to 500 tons pressure. The
cane after being. crushed is called
baggose and goes to the furnaces tt

Dickens "a Christmas Carol"
Picturized.

Charles Dickens has made an inn
perishable gift to literature in "a
Christmas Carol" and, under the
title of "The Right to Be Happy"
Bluebird Photoplays, Inc, has trans
lated this great lesson of benevolence
and charity to the screen-visualized
it for the masses who have not, or,
mayhap, will not read the classic
story in its original form. Rupert
Julian will head the Bluebird COM
pany in presenting "The Right to Be
Happy" at the Isis theater on Friday
with Francelia Ellington, Roberta
Wilson, Emory Johnson, Claire Nc
Dowell, John Cook and other clever
screen artists, in his support. It
may be well to suggest to those who
have not read "a Christmas CaroP'
that old Scrooge (the role played by
Mr.. JuIian) was the worlds cham
pion "grouch" -the meanest man in
literature. Bob Cratchit, ON the con-
trary, was the worlds greatest OPP
tinist. Cratchit worked for Scrooge
and when Christmas Eve arrived was
sent home with a snarl instead of a
word Of cheer-for Scrooge did not
believe in the christmas Spirit" and
hated the joy and better things Of
life. How this old Crouch" was
changed to the kindliest of souls anc
brought to a realization of his past
neanness and thorough detestabil-
ity, forms one of the most beautiful
stories ever written-and its lessons
endure the year round, and world
wide; for in every community there
lives a "Scrooge" to this very day
Bluebird has taken advantage of ev-
eryI opportunity to visualize the
Dickens classic in most effective
Photographic form, and an enter.
