PENsAcoLA-MoBILE WATERWAY.

Senator Fletcher has introduced an
amendment to the national rivers and har-
bors bill, providing for the Improvement of
the inland waterway from Pensacola to
Mobile
If anything in congress ever escaped the
porcine faint, surely it is this bill. At a cost
of $4,000, it is estimated, an adequate
channel can be dredged that will give Pen
,sacola barge connection with the coal fields
of Alabama, via the Warrior river, besides
introducing freight competition between
here and our sister city.
Pensacola's bunker business would be a
great deal larger than it is but for the car
shortage. With barge connection, the sup
ply would be assured. Mobile, without the
loading facilities possessed by Pensacola,
nevertheless has this tremendous handicap
over the deep water city. The government
which makes a practice of helping those
places that help themselves, should incline
with especial favor to the proposition when
Senator Fletcher has shown how deserving
in this respect Pensacola is of national as
sistance

MORE ROADS.

Progressive, as usual, Santa Rosa county
is agitating for countrywide road devel-
opment. At an enthusiastic meeting held
in Milton few nights ago, a committee
was appointed to present the matter of a
bond issue to the county commissioners,
and the proposal IS reported to be widely
supported.
Santa Rosa is not to be caught unawares.
Not hers the role of sleeping beauty. The
Waking Misunderstanding vivacious, pos
sessed of an infinite variety-that is what
Santa Rosa will be when tourists and col
onists come, needing the call of A1ahamiss
and the other development enterprises.
And Santa Rosa will have roads, good
roads, tapping the veins of wealth in a
hundred directions.
Progress rolls on wheels. As river seeks
the way of least resistance, avoiding the
bad spots, so development has in the past
rolled around Sunshine Land because of its
puddles and roots and bumps.
By building proper channels, the flow o.
prosperity will set this way, an irresistible
tide. II

The earnestness with which Escambia
county farmers are undertaking develop
ment work might, POLITICALLY, be called the
first quarter of the harvest moon.
With thoroughly progressive member
ship, fedora. farm loan association for the
entire county has been formed. a local
branch has been organized at Brent, and
more will follow; and the $4,000, amount
of the first loan, is but the beginning of the
development which the Rural Credits Law
has made possible
Farmers were not contemplating such
development a year ago. A year ago they
were doing what they were doing year be-
fore that. Next year they will be doing two,
three, four-a dozen times-more than t1,cv
are doing now, and the year later twice

With the gigantic advertising campaign
of Alaflamiss exploiting our resources

WANTED: MOVIE STUDIO.

Tohow many people must the question
have presented itself: Why isn't there a
moving picture producing studio in Pen
sacola?
Why, with our shipping, our aviation, our
surf and open sea and moss-hung bayous,
our hills and valleys, our southern types,
our forts, ancient and modern-why is it
that Americas oldest city is allowing SO
much scenery to go to waste?
Why is it that with submarines and de-
stroyers and battleships maneuvering here,
they are not made the setting for some APP
propriate scenarios?
Why is it that, able to reproduce any
thing except the A1ps-our brilliant sand
photographs like snow, suggesting all sorts
of pathetic blizzard pictures while the Their
mometer hovers around Cove produce
nothing?
Did any studio ever drop on any town,
unsolicited, like a Zeppelin bomb? Or must
the promoters be coaxed-the peculiar adj
vantages of the place described, advertised
dinged into their heads? Do they know
there is such place as Pensacola? An as
