A great American mass meeting was

all Americans in that country. Ambas-

There was continuous stream of
American soldiers in the British army

GOVERNMENT TO BAR
EXCESSIVE WAR PROFITS
If Prices Are Too High Uncle Sam
Can Take Over and 0per-
ate Plants.

The government has invoked for the
first time it's drastic powers to strike
a deathblow at exorbitant war profits.
Under authority of the last naval ap-
preparation bill a manufact was
directed to furnish a large order of war
supplies at price fixed by the govern
ment, far lower than the figure volun-
tarily submitted. If the order is not
obeyed the plant will be taken over
and operated by the government.
It is understood that the concern
against which these statutes have been
invoked refused to meet the govern
ment's requirements as to price when
the orders were rendered originally
and in the regular way. So far as
known this is the only case of the kind
yet produced by the present emergency.
European governments are paying an
average Of 10 per cent profit on war
materials purchased in the United
States. It was asserted authoritatively
that the government Of the United
States intends to buy it's own supplies
at less than that rate of profit to the
seller. The law invoked is section 3
Of the last naval appropriation bill, as
follows
The president is authorized to require
the owner or occupier Of any factory in
which the ships or war material are built
or produced to place at the disposal of
the United States the whole or any part
Of the output of such factory and, within
the limit Of the amounts appropriated
therefor to deliver such output or parts
thereof in such quantities and at such
times as may be specified in the order at
such reasonable price as shall be deter
mined by the president.

HIDDEN DANGERS.
Nature Gives Timely Warnings That
No Princeton Citizen Can

No Princeton Citizen Can
Afford to Ignore.
Danger Signal No. 1 comes from
the kidney secretions. They will warn
you when the kidneys are weak. Well
kidneys excrete a clear, amber fluid.
Weak kidneys send out a thin, pale,
foamy, or thick, red, ill-smelling
urine, full of sediment and irregular
Of passage.
Danger Signal No. 2 comes from
the back. Back pains, dull and heavy,
or sharp and acute, suggest weak kid
neys and warn you of the danger of
dropsy, gravel and Bright's disease.
In that case Doan's Kidney Pills have
been endorsed by thousands. Here is
a statement Of a nearby resident:
A. V. Axtell, carpenter, Foley,
Mimi, says: II suffered from a dull
backache and pains through my hips.
It hurt me to bend, stoop or lift and
my back got lame and sore. The
trouble was worse when caught cold

BOND ISSUE CARRIES

Through their vote cast in favor of the
bond issue for paving the road to the gov
ernment reservation, this section has made
long stride forward for progress, and has
given another evidence of that force which
seems to be driving this community
towards better things for both the present
and the future.
While the vote cast was light, that very
fact, coupled with the good majority which
was on the side of a bigger and better Pen
sacola indicated the small opposition to the
movement which was apparent
AS the portion Of the road to be paved
by the county will not exceed fifty thou
sand dollars, the total tax levy will be but
one mill, only one-fourth of one mill to be
levied the first year, and smaller levy
each year following until the bonds are
retired
In return for this Escambia gets of
the finest roads in Florida, and one which
materially helps the growth OF this section
in a wonderful way.
Both Macon and Atlanta and other
southern cities have built paved roads at
their own expense to the camps located
nearby. There is nothing in Escambia
which is greater asset to this entire sec
ton than are the aviation station and the
army post These, under existing condi-
tons are most difficult to reach, and the
new road will not only prove OF great con-
venience to the government IN the move
ment of supplies, but will be permanent
advantage which will have been gained,
and which will serve, to materially in
crease the prosperity of this section.

SECOND TO STEEL

The war;. among other things has to a
great extent stopped the American lmpor-
tation of French wearing apparel. AS a
consequence, American designers and man
ufactureres have fallen upon the market for
millions of dollars worth of home made
products-products valued by clothing
men as second only to steel.
Elizabeth Miner King, in an article on
"War, Women and American Clothes, in
Scribner's, states that the cloak and-sui

year amounted to S15O,OOO,OOO The an
nual value of this country's market for

that in 1913 our importations of clothing
