CONSUL SERVICE

Bryan Vaughn, 81 years Of age. son
of MIR. and Mrs. j. B. Vaughn, of 80
East Chase street, may some day be
a fully accredited consul of the Uni
ted States government, for his parents
were yesterday notified that he had
been offered and had accepted an ap-
pointment as attache TO the United
States consul at Toronto. Canada. and.
in fact had already taken up his
station and duties at that point. Pen
sacola friends of the young man viii
be pleased to learn of the recognitioS
which the government has thus ac-
corded him.
Leaving here some months ago, the
young Pensacolian secured an ap-
pointment in the ordinance depart
ment, Washington. which he has evil
IDENTIFY filed with so much credit to
himself and the government that his
talents have been recognized in the
manner above detailed. Entering the
consul service, although only as an
attache. gives him a chance to get
higher, hence the probability of him
being on foreign station in more
responsible capacity in due time.

tion Of his speech which the represen-
tative Of Jacksonville paper sent
from here. This appeared in the jack
sonville Metropolis layeiy:
A teIegrapflic item in the Metropolis
yesterday In Pensacola says L. NJ
Rose, State Marketing Commissioner,
made mention of meeting In the
Deep Water City to organize market
ing organization, and noted some re-
marks | made in connection with COM
plants made to the State Marketing
Bureau that merchants had bought
products from growers or producers
at small prices and sold to buyers and
consumers at exorbitarit cost, and If
consumers bought from farmer the
merchant, therefore refused to buy any
thing from him or sell to the con-
sumner.
Il made no mention Of merchants,
but said the charge had been made
| against certain street peddIers or buck
| sters. and II that was true all the
sharks were not in the bay and gulf.
I said that condition was one the State
Marketing Bureau could not correct, it

Merchants who are regularly in
business are honest and patriotic as 4
rule, and they could not afford to be

might consistently play a game of that
sort, and when caught playing it could

The function of the State Market

ducers to bring growers and buyers to-
gether. and is not engaged in the buy

Letters are on file in the Bureau
from farmers and shrtGrs wherein

that there are plenty OF responsible

COMMENDABLE ACTION

The city commissioners are to be commended
upon having given their cooperation to the gov
eminent in the establishing Of an Extra Can
torment Jone here. The Importance of this
scientific sanitary program cannot be estlmat-
ed It is needed not because Pensacola is mark
edIy unhealthy, but because the undertaking
will make this normally healthy community one
OF the healthiest cities in the country.
With the government considering Pensacola
for very extensive war projects, clean bill of
health is our most valuable asset. Cooperating
with our local authorities, the federal govern
ment proposes to give us exactly that, lending
us a corps Of sanitary experts and health work
ers supported by the wide experience and vast
resources of the United States Public Health
Service.
Pensacola is fortunate in having been offered
i. this valuable assistance, the Chamber of Com
.merce has rendered splendid public service in
lending its support to the movement and the
commissioners have materially advanced the
interests of the city by pledging their full CO.
operation
With perfect system Of sanitation added to
our other exceptional advantages, Pensacola's
growth and advancement is certain to be rapid
and every wel1-wisher of the community will en-.
dorse the action of the city commissioners.

RUSSIAN SITUATION

Communication from the statesmen and mill
tary leaders abroad indicate that the allies are
agreed ON the necessity for military Intervention
in Russia. The decision to act and the method
of proceeding is understood to be in the hands of
President Wilson. Dispatches bearing on con-
ditions in Russia show that the plight of that
nation is growing even worse
Upon President Wilson the Entente Powers
wait The Allied War Council sitting at Yer
sailles, has come to the conclusion that steps
should be taken Immediately, if Russia is to be
saved from the clutches of Germany. General
Foch, the supreme commander of the allied
forces on the western front, is said to have ar
rived at the same conclusion.
AS yet there is no indication from the White
House as to what the President will do. There
is even no indication when he will give his de-
cision. It is known that for several weeks he
has been considering the problem with more or
less open mind. There are those of his advisers
who assert confidently that he will not approve
Intervention except through the nninistrations
of an economic commission, the purpose Of which
VIII be to help the Russians out of their pre-
seat difficulties. There are others that have
been given the impression that the President has
been awaiting the opinion of the military COM
manders on the Western froct.
This opinion is now before the president
Not only the British government, but the French
have cast their lot in favor of Intervention in
Russia. General Foch and the Allied War
Council take the position that troops may be
spared to offset the German invasion in Russia
1t has been known for some time that the Jap
anese government only awaits the word of its
allies to move on Siberia.
President Wilson is said to have been concern
81 mainly with the extent of the Intervention

proposed to be undertaken in Russia. There -
no intention on the part of the United States
government to make use of Russia It is simply
a question of the nature of the aid to be extend
ed.
The French and the British governments take
the point of view that economic Intervention
will be of no avail and that military force suf-
fcient to maintain order win be necessary. The
japanese government will probably follow what
ever course is suggested by Great Britain and
approved by the United States.
It is assumed, in view Of what is apparently
happening in Russia, and the decision of the
allied governments, that the President soon viii
decide whether definite action is to be taken o.
whether the further drift Of events shall b
awaited, before policy with regard to Russia il
/ formulated.

PEACE TERMS

Until Germany accepts the conditions laid
down by President Wilson she cannot have peace,
and she can have peace tomorrow if she accepts
them. This is the message that David Lloyd
George, gave to the American troops training
the British front, after he had seen them in re-
view
The arrival ir>France of one million American
soldiers had made the German Emperor realize
that his deafeat was certain, said the British
Premier. The Emperor, he said, had Illusions
about the war. One of them was that the new
American troops would not be capall lie OF meet
ing those Of Germany, trained to the minute
Mr.. Lloyd George reiterated forcefuly that
the allies do not covet single yard of German
soil, and do not desire to dispossess Germany of
her rightful inheritance or the people of their
legitimate rights.
In congratulating the American troops, Mr.
Lloyd George said, in part: 81 am glad when
see them, that the American troops are on our
side and not on the other. We are anxious that
many thousands come across the ocean
The fact that you are here is great dis
| appointment to the Kaiser who never quite ex-
pected you. He assured by his advisers
that America was so pacific there was no danger
of her getting in. He has gone from folly to
folly.
His next illusion was that even if you declared
war you could not get here. His advisers said
that all the ships would be sunk and there would
be no means remaining to bring you across the
sea.
"But you are here. Not part of force of a
few thousands, but part of force of hundreds
of thousands to fight for justice and the freedom
of the world.
'We are grateful that you are here to fight,
| but of course you are not fighting only for
America, not only for France, which is suffering
more than any nation in the world has ever suf-
| fered, you fighting for the liberties of the
| world"
President Wilson has made it clear what We
| are fighting for. If the Kaiser and his advisers
will accept the conditions voiced by the presiden
| they can have peace with America, peace will
1 France, peace with Great Britain tomorrow.
But he has given no indication of an intention
to do SO. Because he will not do SO is the very
treason we all fighting
i It is not that we covet single ward of Germa
soil that we are fighting. Not because we desir
4 10 uiSposSeSS germany or her inheritance. No
because we desire to deprive the German peopl
of their legitimate rights We are fighting fo
the great principles of liberty, laid down by tn
president.
Our forefathers learned that in union there i
strength; and now our War Mothers are of tn
same opinion
