OFFICERS TO BE NAMED

Besides the delegates a number of army and navy officers must be named to assist the commission. In that con- nection attention has been directed to the names of Gen. TaslSer H. Bliss for mer chief of staff, and now American representative on the supreme war council; Maj. Gen. Enoch Crowder. Judge advocate general and provost marshal veteran of The Hague con- ference, and Brig. Gen. Samuel Anse1l, acting judge advocate general: Vice Admiral Smms, Capt. Ridley Mclean. former judge advocate of the navy
 James Brown Scott, former solicitor of the department of state and at pres ent secretary of the Carnegie endow- ment for international peace and also participant in the last conference at The Hague, is believed to be under con sideration as secretary for the Ameri- can commission.
 There will. of course be at least two assistant secretaries and a eonsid- erable number of attaches and clerks < If Congress is to be represented on the commission, as was the case at the Paris conference in 1898 when peace treaties between the Bnited States and Spain were drawn, the fact has not yet been developed On the contrary, il

TO OPEN TRADE CHANNELS

One reason suggested for the change of decision is the necessity of restoring the channels of trade and industry in the late enemy states, so as to afford employment to labor and thereby le- lieve the threat of bolshevism and an archy, Another is the general desire now expressed by all of the allied gov- ernments to relieve the civilian popula tion of the central powers from the danger of famine, it being recognized that this relief work can best be car ried on after formal peace treaties have been negotiated. There also has been some apprehension that delay in the eonsummation of peace would have an injurious effect upon industries in America and the allied countries.
 With the assurance of an early as- semhly of the peace conference, att tention today was turned to the com position of the American commission. The belief Is growing that President Wilson will attend, but probably not in the capacity of a delegate or com missioner, It is known that Secretary Lansing win head the American c8m- raissicnsT and Col E.

PROOF OF FLORDA'S PROSPERITY

That Florida is amply prosperous
and thoroughly patriotic was cOnclu-
sively proven by the manner in which
1t over subscribed its quota in the
Fourth Liberty Loan.
From reports already received ev.
cry county in the State went over the
| top handsomely and in many cases
the over-subscription was almost half
Of the original quota assigned by the
government.
It is generally believed that Florida
was never in more prosperous con-
dition than at the present time. Near
ly every community in the State has
been successful in its enterprises and
developments during the past year or
more and in many cases some coun-
ties have greatly increased their pro-
duction and improved their financial
|, conditions in most satisfactory
manner.
In the various tourist cities and
towns many new residents have es-
tablished beautiful winter homes and
their owners, fascinated with the
grand climate and lovely surround
ings, have made substantial invest
ments in property and buildings and
the new capital has resulted i'll pros
porous conditions in all of these COM
munities.
In the larger cities government ac-
tivities have resulted in the expendi-
ture of millions of dollars and the
employment Of many thousands at 4
high rate of wages Business has been
greatly accelerated in such places and
many new investments have been
made and extensive manufacturing
institutions have been established that
will. insure a payroll for the future
and continued prosperity.
The increased demand for meats.
farm produce and other products to
sustain the army and navy and the
airplane service has resulted in the
development of hundreds of thou
sands of acres and the rapid increase
of the live stock industry in the state
The attractions Of Florida in this con-
nection have induced many million
aires and corporations to seek in
vestments in the State and mary mil
lions of dollars have been expended
in these enterprises in the past two
years.
/ AS a result of these activities many
smaller manufacturing institutions
j have been established in different Sec
tons of the State to supply the in
creased demand for modern farm i'm
plements, power plants, hulling ma
chimes, tractors, trucks, -four mills,
packing houses. crate materials, lum-
Der and all kinds Of building mater
/ ials.
That all of these institutions and
concerns responded Loyalty to the
call of the government is shown in
the millions Of dollars that were sub
scribed to the loan in the past three
weeks and Florida is proud indeed =

Passing, Says Marketing Bureau
This Refers to all Forms Of

The worlds citrus crop is estimated
at figures running we'll up to 100 mil
lion boxes, enough to fill quite 25(
thousand cars, says the State Market
ing Bureau. The citrus industry II
mainly confined to five countries, thu
United States, Spain. Italy, Japan ant
the Holy Land, with other countries
in a small way about the Mediter
ranean. There are also a good many
grown in the West Indies, the Contra
American and South American re
publics.
The United States, of course, Is ir

and California, with Louisiana fal
down in the third place, followed In
turn by Texas, Arizona, Mississippi
and Alabama, in a scattering way fol

Florida's crop this year gives prom
Use of going to five million boxes Of
oranges, with large yield, and bet
ter quality everywhere, reported
Growers are making practical effort
to meet the labor shortage. There il
wide range in prices offered per boz
on the tree, from 81 to 1925 for or
anges, and seventy-fve cents to SITE
for grapefruit.
CALIFORNIA; prospect is $4,000 cars
of oranges and 1000 cars of lemons
or total of $4,000 cars, compared
with 43,45O for the past year, and
$4,000 cars two years ago.
The Louisiana crop is estimated a,
about 10000 boxes. The industry in
that state has suffered a good deal
from storms and diseases during the
last few years This years crop Is
later than usual.
Citrus fruits are imported into the
United States from Spain, Italy, the
Central and South American coun
tries, Cuba and Porto Rico, and the
business everywhere is being more
carefully organized every year in
order to bring about economies ir
producing and marketing. Spain IS
rapidly organizing and up to the time
of the war was distributing fair per
centage of its crop through agencies
This spirit has reached the West In
dies and it is expected that the Cubal

the speculative class to a systemati,
merchandising basis.
California is well organized into

ton With Annual Nay Festival

school music classes, under the dlrec-
ton of Lewis l.. Stookey, supervisor

alter A community sing in which
| the audience sang portions of popular
and patriotic songs between the sec
tons of the program, was new lea
ture of the festival and proved to pc
a very popular addition.
The program from beginning to end
was a thoroughly good one, and If the
volume of applause was any indication
that any one section was enjoyed more
than another. perhaps the band had
a shade the best of it Their I'VE
musica numbers were presented we'll,
and the audience gave liberal evidence
of its appreciation.
Next to strike the popular fancy was
the girls glee club, which presented
Claimants Indian songs in costume.
The young women were given a hearty
reception.
A very pleasing feature of the pro-
gram was a ward school junior or
chestra, composed of sixteen pupils
from the second to seventh grades. Mr..
Stookey explained that these pupils
bad had but four rehearsals preceding
the program.
The four numbers by the orchestra
was one Of the good things of the
evening A mixed chorus gave two Sc
lections in a most pleasing manner.
and the numbers by the girls chorus
were well done.
The closing section was a patriotic
finale in which the combined choruscs,
glee club and band gave patriotic Sc
lections which included La Marseil-
laise,''~ and closed with 'The Star
Spangled Banner" AS the latter was
being given three large American flags
we're lowered from above, forming
background for the grouping of singers
and players with a most pleasing eff

During the program the audience.
under the leadership Of Mr.. Stookey,
joined heartily in singing America,

president dlring peace and dur
ing wartime has justified the
Characterization then made.
He has been efficient, never a
swashbuckler, never a hair
trigger executive, never afraid
to strike when clear judgment
told him the time was at hand.
In war he has sought results,
not self glory. Some of the
strongest things he has done
have never been published be-
cause he forbade and they
would have been interesting
reading and good advertising
for the president.
The nation is heavily in
debted to Woodrow Wilson for
the great progress made in war
operations. He can be relied
upon to handle duties and diff
ficulties as they arise. An eff
ficient executive, he does not
neglect big things by wasting
time on non essentials. With
Wilson in the White House the
country need not fear that in
efficiency will prevail very
long in any branch of the
work. 1t will come up to stand
ard or there will be a change
in personnel. We have had
this already in ship building
and in airplane production.
Similar changes will come at
other points when necessity
calls for it. The presidents
record justifies this confidence.
The United States is striking
ly fortunate in having during
this time of great events man
of real executive ability in the
White House.

THE REASON FOR SUGAR
ECONOMY

n F any man has failed to see
the reason why he should
cut his apportionment OF
two spoonfuls of sugar to the
one of war time, he can find it
in a recent publication of the
United States Department of
Agriculture explaining the
worldwide shortage-especi-
ally the shortage among the
allies-in the supply of sweets.
Not only has the supply of
sugar in some parts of the Uni
ted States been short, but there
has been an actual shortage of
more than 100000 tons annu-
ally in the world since the war
began, and the shortage is like
ly to continue, the publication
says, primarily because of the
destruction of a large number
of sugar mills and the devasta-
ton of a considerable area of
sugar-producing lands in Eu-
rope.
Prior to the war practically
all the belligerent countries,
with the exception of the Unit
ed Kingdom and Italy, export
