CLOTHING SCARCITY IN GERMANY

Clothing is getting scarce in Germany. An
appeal for 100000 mems suits for the neces-
stiles of war has failed to yield the required re-
suit and the imperial clothes bureau announces
econd appeal to the Fatherland voluntarily to
provide the necessary clothes, with unpleasant
references to a maximum term of imprisonment
for one year and maximum fine of 10000 marks

FARM LOANS INCREASING

In taking stock of their investments under
wartime conditions, the life insurance companies
find that largely iHcreased proportion of their
reserve funds is flowing into the leading agricul-
tural sections of the United States where the
farmers are making huge additions to the pro-
ducton of the foodstufs so vitality needed by this
country and its allies. Concurrently with this
great activity in financing the farming sections
has come decided falling off in the amount of
life insurance money loaned on city property.
Where there was net increase of nearly two
hundred million dollars in the farm mortgage
loans of these companies during 1915 and 1916,
their city real estate loans show decrease of
twenty million dollars
In addition to the net increase in farm loans
in this two-year period, new farm loans to the
smount of two hundred million dollars also were
made during the first nine months of 1917.
The net increase for this later period cannot be
computed until statistics as to the matured
mortgages, etc. that were paid off, are available.
These and other original statistics just compil-
ed concerning necessary readjustments in the in
lvestment of life insurance policyholders' funds
under conditions created by the World War are
discussed in report just submitted to the life
insurance companies of the country by Manager
George T. Wight of the Association of Life InsI-
rance Presidents.
This report states that 95 per cent of the life
insurance farm mortgage money is loaned in
nineteen states in the West and South that are
furnishing three-fourths of the bulk of the
country's staple food production

sEhF-INsURANcE PROTECTS AMERICAN
SHIPPING

There is world of romance in marine and
war-risk insurance, and no more fascinating SUBJ
ject than how men bravely risk life and prop
erty in submarine zones-their only protection
the watchfulness of Uncle Sam and their own far
sghtedness in carrying ample insurance to cover
property loss.
Through the policy which it has adopted the
United States shipping board emergency fleet
corporation has been able to employ measures
to protect the United States against all financial
loss due to perils of the sea. Fires; accidents,
acts of God-such the effects of tornadoes,
storms, and heavy weather; breakage of ma
chinery, explosions of boilers-all are provided
for in the self-insurance carried by the board
For slightly more than one-half cent for every
dollar value represented by ships the United
States shipping board insures its vessels against
marine losses voyages from transatlantic
and Atlantic ports to European Atlantic ports
An additional or cents for every dollar of
value represented by our vessels covers war
losses, such as submarine sinkings, damage done
by floating mines, and attacks by enemy vessels.
Approximately S30,000000 in premiums had

Estimated losses of all kinds suffered by the
emergency fleet, including damages of ordinary
character, amount to about $13,500,0o0

THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.


In speaking of port development, prominent
business man said yesterday, "Our Chamber OF
Commerce isn't active enough
He was absolutely and indisputably right.
No commercial organization is as active as it
should be.
But the Pensacola Chamber of Commerce is
just active and just as efficient as its critic
and the rest of us will permit it to be.
Pensacola probably gets more service for each
dollar expended than any other city in the coun-
try. We don't get all that should out of the
that we should into it.
Right now with the future of Pensacola in the
balance, our commercial organization is limping
along, almost without funds, making game
fight in spite Of its handicaps while competing
cities, with inferior advantages but better pro-
motional departments, are landing the commerce
and the industries which should rightly come to
us.
The total income of the Pensacola Chamber
of Commerce does not exceed the salary and ex-
pense account which at least one rival city allows
its commercial secretary.
While the government is considering rail ter
mnals and points of embarkation, we have nc
money with which to employ statistical engine
ers Our Chamber of Commerce sends the facts
regarding Pensacola to Washington and to the
various committees, but is unable to keep man
constantly the job to see that our reports ar
in the hands of the right man at the right nom
= ent.
We are at Washington depending upon tn
voluntary service of one man-and he has hi
iiving to make. He does what he can for Pensa
cola, because he knows our advantages and be
Iieves in them. But he cannot devote his whole
time to our interests.
On several occasions local business men have
gone to Westinghouse their personal expense
-on purely community projects. But they have
arrived too soon or too late. They have lost
valuable time learning the ropes and other cities
with established permanent organizations, hav,
landed the prizes.
That we have Jared so well as we have is, unde
the circumstances, remarkable. That we have
not accomplished more is the fault of the bust
ness people of Pensacola, individually and col
lectively. We are prone to forget there is
Chamber of Commerce until we want it to d.
something for us.
The trouble with most of us is that we look up
on the Chamber of Commerce as the Indian view:
his medicine man. We believe it is, or should be
possessed of magic power to grant our wishes.
Instead, only hard work-personal interes
Ind effort-will make the Chamber of Com
slerce what we wish it to be.
Membership dues vitality necessary, O
course, but what the Chamber needs most of al
il the support and interest of every citizen o
Pensacola. With that accomplished, there vii
be funds aplenty and Pensacoia's future as bi,
city win be assured.
Next time you feel that the Chamber of Com
merce isn't active enough, don't cuss-insteat
ask DR.. Blocker what you can do to help maxi
the wheels hum. Then do it and you will be sur
prised to learn how efficient The organization
actually Is.
