PENSACOLA'S ANSWER

That Pensacola had the greatest number
of subscribers, in proportion to the popula-
ton, of all the United States, was the
statement publicly made in reference to the
". NJ C. A. war campaign, just closed in
this city.
To every citizen, whether a subscriber
OR not, this must be a matter of great pride.
The Y. M. c. A. and other war activities
are source of much qualification to all
Pensacolians, which is generously evil
denced again and again by the responses
which are made to every appeal
DEMONSTRATING it's quota in both Lib
erty Loans, contributing most literally to
the Red Cross and leading the country in
number of Y. M. c. A. fund contributors,
Pensacola has proved the degree of its
patriotism.
Toward the helpful work of the "Y",
Pensacola feels most kindly and gladly,
does it's part in promoting the welfare of
our fighting men.
John R. Mott has said: "The burning
question which each of us must help answer
is: Shall the flower of our American man
hood, gone out to represent us, come back
to us ESQ far as those whose lives are
spared) with bodies shot through with the
diseases of immoral living, with character
weakened or blasted, or shall they return
stronger and better men,"
Pensacola has given her answer to that
burning question in the same splendid way
that she has answered every other ques
ton of her responsibility to the govern
ment in its war relief measures, in bold
handwriting on the credit side of the
ledger.

Secretary J. S. Bitch of the Board
of State Institutions sent the follow

board at it's last meeting:

Resolved, that from and after the

possible, so that they may have ample

Whereas. it has developed that in

prevent their being properly classed
as INDECENT; and

WAR SAVINGS

During the two great Liberty Loan
drives many patriotic men and women
were debarred from participation because
of the fact that it was impossible for them
to raise the necessary amount for the pur-
chase of the bonds, even at the low rates
sanctioned by the government and author
lied by the banks. Many men and women,
who would readily and gladly have con-
tributed ten dollars, or five dollars or one
dollar to the loan, were unable to pledge
themselves to the payment Of the requls-
ite fifty dollars, even on the weekly pay
ment plan.
Primarily, it is for this vast number of
people, no less patriotic because unable to
buy Liberty Bonds, that the Government
has instituted the issue of war savings
certificates and thrift stamps, advance sales
Of which begin Monday, December third.
But the plan will appeal with equal force
to many who are owners of Libsrty Bonds,
because they see in it an easy, practical
means for small saving while assisting the
government IN financing the war Many
will buy war-savings certificates and thrift
stamps on the same theory that they carry
savings accounts in the banks. Others
will teach their children lessons in patriot
ism and thrift through the medium of
thrift stamps. And, in the total number
OF subscribers, the issue promises to be the
most popular of war loans.

Editor Pensacola Journal:
Every loyal inhabitant of the
United States is vitality interested In
the success of his country In the
present war, because he is an Amer1-
can citizen. Ever resident OF PEN
sacola should be equally interested in
the development of the town, because
he is a Pensacola citizen. American
patriotism means a love for America
Pensacola patriotism means love for
Pensacola. The man whose ambition
Is greater than his patriotism is an
unsafe guide; desert him. Likewise
he would sacrafice any part of the
public welfare for personal motives
is an undesirable citizen; shun him.
The welfare and progress of PEN
sacola depends largely, if not entirelys
upon the love and loyalty of it's citl-
zens. Dame Nature did her part
when she supplied an abundance of
deep water, fertile soil and delightful
climate. The building of city was
left to those who would love the spot
sufficiently to plan, toll and sacrt-
flee for the common good. But. there
must be loyalty in purpose, sincereity
in desire and unit in action. before
any great good can be accomplished.
Merchants do not make a town

only where there is demand to be
supplied, and he carries only that
stock which will supply the demand.
Merchants are as necessary to the
life of a community as the commun-
lty is to the success of the merchants.
We want all the merchants the COM
munity can support. but that number
must necessarily be limited by the
number of people to whom the COM
munity gives employment At the
present time, Pensacola is enjoying
| an unusual prosperity, due to the
| activities Of the War Department in
this vicinity. This may continue for
years. or it may cease within a few
months. All the merchants now do
ing business in Pensacola will not
service have been removed. unless
the loyal citizens provide employment
for others, who in their turn may
become patrons of the stores and
shops. To wait until the necessity
is upon us would be worse than inn
provident-it would be foolish.
If it is true that Nothing sue
ceeds like success" the people of
Pensacola should take hold of the
steering wheel now. and guide the
city to degree of prosperity that
will not make the removal of the
troops a calamity to the town. 1t
can be done, and a mint of money is
not requisite.
The opportunity is here in mani
fold form; the wealth is / re in suf-
ficient quantity; the people are here
in numerical strength. When these
three factors are brought together
for the common good Pensacola viii
enter an era of prosperity that win
astound the most sanguine. 1t needs
only the loyalty and unit of the peo-
pie of Pensacola. Are we ready to go
forward?
Respectfully,

APPREHENSION UNFOUNDED

feeling of relief was experienced
throughout the country at the statement
OF the secretary of the treasury, McAdoo.
in Baltimore before the Bankers Associa-
ton that the actual expenditures of some
OF the departments of the government
we're much less than the estimates the de-
partments submitted in July last. and that
the task Of providing for the expenses of
the Government for the fiscal year is not
regarded by the Treasury Department as
one which will in any way strain the ca
pacity of the resources of the United
States
The Secretary said, in part: Vague and
unfounded apprehension seems to exist in
the public mind as to the extent of the
financial requirements of the United States
during the current fiscal year. It may be
helpful to the country to know that these
requirements have been largely exagger-
ated and that in the judgment of the secre-
tary of the treasury there is no reason
whatever for apprehension on this score
This opinion is based upon the latest esti-
mates of Our financial needs
The splendid success of the Second
Liberty Loan shows that the people are
fully determined to support the war and
are prepared to make such sacrifices of lux
u,ies, pleasures, comforts and convent
ences as may be necessary"
The Secretary explained that his Opt
nistic statement was based upon actual
figures at hand.

RUGGED ROOSEVELT.

Declaring that what had been accom-
plished by the Canadians and by their sis
ter colonies was without parallel in history,
Colonel Roosevelt urged universal military
training in time of peace, in an address
recently delivered in Toronto.
Gas regards certain nations" Colonel
Roosevelt said, 81 am sure it will prove en-
tirely possible both to provide for perma-
nent peace among them and to secure a
betterment of general international condi-
tions to diminish the likelihood of future
wars and to restrict their limits if they
break out AS for Canada and the United
States, / think the time has come when
we should declare that no possible ques-
ton can arise which cannot be determined
substantially as questions between the va
rious states or province are determined,
at Warrington or Ottawa.
Gas regards some nations l question
whether as yet we can trust the future
solely to even the most carefully devised
treaties, lest in any real emergency we
suddenly discover that they are regarded
merely as scraps of paper. Therefore we
ought with entire sincerity take every step
which makes it likely that thereby the
chances of future war will be minimlzed.'
Whatever one may say of Colonel Roose-
Welt however one may be opposed to some
Of his theories, his sincerity at all times
cannot be questioned, nor can it be over
looked that he is the idol of a great mass
of the American people.
Wherever he appears, wherever his pic
ture is so much as flashed upon the screen
1T the north he is applauded and cheered
to the echo, and this by men and women
who are opposed to much that he has adj

But with all of Mr.. Roosevelt's bias,

something so splendid in his fine sense of
justic, there IS something so compelling in

his courage, so admirable in his blunt
openness on all questions, that even those
who do not admire many of his policies
love him for his bluff and ready ways, the
ardor of his personality, and the purity of
his patriotism
The American government has done
we'll to give to Mr.. Roosevelt the task that
is his,--that of preaching the gospel of
good faith, the message of patriotism not
only in Canada but throughout the United
States, where perhaps, more than any
other man, his word has weight with the
great mass of American people, who love
him for his splendid courage and admire
