SONOF SENATORbND
MRS. WATSON DIES

Quincy, Nov. ia shade Of
| gloom fell over the entire town Mon
day evening when it was learned
that Jack, the fourteen-year-old sor
of Senator and Mrs. Y. L. Watson
had died, after an illness of only a
few hours. He had suffered a week
or more from an abscessed tooth and
Sunday morning his dentist decided
that the tooth could not be saved and
extracted it.
Suffering became so intense Sun
day afternoon that a physician was
summoned, but blood poisoning had
developed and it was impossible to
stay the dread diseased nd before an
other day had passed this boy, the
pride of his parents heart had passed
away.
Funeral services were held at the
Presbyterian church, Of which was a
member, at II o'clock Tuesday morn
ing. Six of his boy friends acted as
pail bearers. The Boy Scouts, with
their master, attended in a body.
After services at the church the
body was laid to rest in the Eastern
cemetery. The grave was covered
with beautiful flowers. The large
number Of floral designs attest in a
measure the esteem in which this
young lad was held by the people who
have known him since childhood.

FRUIT GROWERS TO
KEEP ON SHIPPING
Special to The Journal

Tallahassee, Nov. Is. = Express
companies north Of the Ohio and Pa
tomac rivers, having announced a
ruling that in future they will receive
no shipments of pershable goods with
out marking upon express receipt
subject to delay on account Of con-
gection." Many fruit and vegetable
shippers Of South Florida complained
to the railroad commission that such
requirement would work a serious
handicap to the shipment of their
products by express, but when the
commission took the matter up with
express companies they advised that
it is not their purpose to attempt to
avoid payment of any claim when
damage was caused by carelessness
or error of their employees, but that
the ruling had been made simply to
protect express companies from dam
age liable to occure as a result of
traffic congestion incident to war con-
ditions. This announcement will
doubtless be a. source of relief to
Florida shippers of perishables.

SAYS SUBMARINE CAMPAIGN
HAS BEEN BROKEN DOWN

New York; Nov. 15.-Arthur Pol
len, noted British war expert, has
made the following statement to the
Associated Press on the submarine
war:
s. Anything unsatisfactory in the
military and political situation is
balanced by the extraordinary news
that the German submarine campaign
has broken down altogether. The sub
marine is defeated. This is the most
niomentous event since the United
States declared war. 1t means tina.
we can all stay in and that America
can really come in.
six months ago shipping was be-
ing destroyed, according to some au-
thorities, at rate of nine million
tons per annum. Had this loss con-
tinued, the Germans had the right to
expect, not indeed military victory,
but a peace that would mean some
thing much less than defeat. This
was Germany's only hope and it was
the allies only anxiety. For every
one, including the German high COM
mand, knew that with sea commune
cation reasonably safe, the military
defeat of the German army was GER
tain.
an the first fortnight of Nove.n-
Der the rate of losses of British tom
mage of ships greater than 1900 tons
each has fallen to about one million
tons year. The present ship build
ing capacity of Great Britain alone
can make this lc1. good in less than
eight months. At the rate America,
Great Britain and Japan are striv-
ing to attain, we should replace this
icss in less than eight weeks. The
rate Of loss for the last week is actu-
ally less than the annual toll of the
wrecks in time of peace. 1t is not to
be expected that losses can remain
as low as this. They must fluctuate.
But they should never cause us seri-
Gus Unea siness again.
I'VE may be sure that there win
DC reaction of optimism. For Ger
many's defeat at sea is final, unive,
sal and permanent, where as Ger
fnany's successes on land are local,
partial and temporary And her de-
feat at sea means that Americas
share in the war can and will be de-
-.;-;re."
