TEN PER CENT SAVING.

The results of the new income tax will
be closely watched, for this measure is full
of crude features that may have to be nodi
fed when experience develops their faults.
The proposal for a notwithstanding
government bank is not meeting with much
public support. the chief objections being
its excessive concentration of power, its ar
bitrary control over security issues and its
decidedly inbationary tendencies, the lat
ter finding some excuse in financial circles
as an inevitable element in war finance.
Government skill in administration,
however, must be accompanied by private
economy in all departments, not a stringent
and indiscriminate cutting down of expen-
ditures, but gradual elimination of non
essentials and a partial reduction of con-
sumption in all possible directions.
A saving of ten per cent in such direc-
tions would bring immense relief; it would
restrain high prices, give production a
chance to catch up with consumption,
would amply correct the deficiency of labor
supply, offset congestion Of traffic, and in
many ways aid restoration to the normal.
The world cannot expect to have as much
to spend and enjoy as usual when confusion
and destruction reigns and it is no exag
geration to say that individual self-denial
~ domestic wants to the extent of ten per
cent would win the war

TRIM UP!

Hidden in the Wire-grasS hereabouts, the
trailing arbutus is budding, all pink and
white; already the woods are sweet and
golden with the jessamine bloom, and the
violets are blooming in their prodigality.
The call of the great outdoors lures motor
lists and pedestrians forth from the city to
seek nature OF its loveliest.
Who does not love the woods, with their
fragrant freshness? But, even the most ar
dent lover of the out-of-doors, spinning
along the city ways, does not wish to be
forced, by comparison, to prefer country
highways to city thoroughfares. On many
of the streets of Pensacola the tree branches
hang so low as to seriously interfere with
traffic, not only jeopardizing the automo-
bile, but the eyes of it's occupants well.
Pensacola has always been noted for its
beautiful trees, and Justly so, but the
beauty would not be less if the trees were
trimmed to prevent disaster to vehicles and
their occupants.
Now is the time to trim up these trees;
before the new foliage comes. The over
hanging branches are a nuisance now to
pedestrians, as we'll as motorists, and how
much more so will they be when summer
is here and they are heavy with new
growth?
However we may love the woods, it is
not necessary to have the streets of Pensa-
cola appear like country roads, with over
hanging branches to discharge. dust or
water, according to whatever the weather
may have in store.

COME AGAIN.

More than half hundred Ohioans spent
Yesterday in Pensacola, and that they were
impressed with this port and its business
possibilities and pleased with the hospl-
tality which was extended them, was evil
denced by their cordial expressions and
open surprise at the opportunities which
Pensacola offers as a great commercial
and industrial center.
That Pensacola was pleased to greet
them and that the good will IS reciprocal,
was emphasized in many ways. These bust
ness itineraries are a good thing for the
country Not only do they serve to intro
duce the men of the different sections to
one another, in a business way. but they
promote that cordiality Of feeling, that
contact SO necessary at this time, when il
is imperative that the country should be one
in motive and close in sympathy.
The members of the Cleveland Chamber
of Commerce will always find awaiting
them a cordial welcome in Pensacola.

The Spectator
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

"A IN
Even the laurels Of the intrenid
and shameless Munchausen have
passed from Germany into the men
trail hands of Sweden. and the leu
ton realm is stripped of its last yes
tlge of romance
what GERMAN science gains in the
story is lost in yarn-spinning glory
to Swedish skipper who came to an
Atlantic port, that nautical enigma
ard recounts the stopping of his yes
sci by Zeppelin in the North sea,
and his papers examined.
According to the Scandinavian de-
scendant OF Hans Andersen the air
ship maneuvered until it was 300 feet
above the vessel, when the COM
mander OF the dirigible, through a
mct'aphone, ordered the captain to
open his papers and spread them on
the deck. The master of the Zeppe-
lin then placed glass to his eye and
reading that the German consul at
Gothenburg had given the ship a
clearance through the war zone, told
the skipper to continue.
If the Baron is not in the first-line
trenches, and too occupied with
French 75s, he may figure out some
answer to this, but until then our
admiration is divided between the
shippers ability to construct lighter
than air yarns, and the Huns ability
to construct lenses
The Swede unwittingly overtaxed
our credulity. for knowing Zeppelins
as we do, it is ineonceivable that the
air-pilot didn't bomb the ship, and
insL ect the papers afterwards. But
at any rate the ship captain is up
holding the best traditions of the
sea.
SELF DETERMINATION"
In voicing the reply of the Central
powers to the proposals of the Boil
sneviki at the Brest-Litovsk confer
en"e, Won Kuhlman cited decision
of the United States supreme court
hare ed down in 1908 in which the
court held that 'fthe sovereign rights
of the United States of North Amer
lea must be recognized as having full
" and completely existed from the
day of the announcement of its indie
pendence, that is to say, as from the
fourth of July 1776, quite independ-
ent of its recognition on the part OF
England in the treaty of the year
1892"
The German statesman endeavored
to prove by this citation that the
Russian republic had no control over
Poland and other provinces, as. their
allegiance to Russia ended with the
overthrow of the Gar.
With characteristic bluntness, the
Chancellor forgets that by the same
token Germany has no right over the
provinces, save the doubtful one OF
conquest. Self-determination is inn
possible at, the point of the dagger,
and the phrase may take its stand
with ''No anneXations and no lndem-
mites. spurlos versenkt, and other
choice expressions in Kultur's vocab-
ularv of verbal camouflage.

CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS.

wherever pain was, wherever pain
stalked wherever there was suffering, or
sorrow, deprivation or despair, at its keen
est, it's most hopeless, the least understood,
for many years there the Salvation Army
has gone, on its errand of mercy, the first
to lend a hand, to lift up, nourishing the
spirit as well as the body.
The Salvation Army has always filled
a place entirely it's own 1t is unique in
that it has gone its way unhampered by
the foTMs of usual religious bodies, but
has not been unmindful of the fact that
appeal must be made to the imagination
if the spirit is to e'quickened. From tile be
ginning it has been an array of Christian
soldiers.
1t has worn the uniform, which has been
both its insignia and its protection: it has
had it's officers, its strict regulations, its
music and its marching, its banners and
its battlecry. 1t has filled place that nc
pther organization in the world has eve
filed 1t has become vast army of sol
diers that have now thrown their weight
against the forces of evil in the army, just
as IN time of peace against the hordes that
sought to destroy.
The Salvation Army is an army of work
ers. 1t has fought for many years. It will
continue to fight for many years more. It
registers where others cannot, because o:
its peculiar appeal to many who can
not be reached by a more conservative
cannot be reached by a more conservative
organization There is something in its
picturesqueness something in its ardor, its
fervor its conservation, its traditions,
which reach deep into the souls of MANY
men who are not tosched by the creed or
ritual of church, which are not moved by
ordinary methods
The war work of the Salvation Army,
which has been highly commended by the
president, is of the deepest significance
What other organization could make a
greater appeal? 1t is following on he field
the same lines that have been followed for
a generation. It's work needs no ex+olling;
1T has written its own recommendation in
the annals of its country, in the men and
women who have been fed, who have been
clothed, who have been given new chance
in the battle of life.
Now, out on the field it has taken its
place-it has followed overseas to give aid
and comfort and succor. 1t needs your
help. This is its first war appeal to YOU.
Will you not respond?
You may have given to the Red Cross.
to the Y. Nj. G. A, to other organizations,
but in this opportunity that is offered YOU
tIiCiC ID a oPCSlal oollSdlIOll. L Tic ODl1Sa-
ton of service to those who serve, who
have long served, and who will continue
to serve, that vast Christian army which
has for SO long worked quietly, persistently
and picturesquely making of this country
a better and safer heritage for your son
and your sons son.
Let your response be generous for the
sake of the Other FELLOW, that man of the
outposts of life who perhaps, has not had
just the same chance, and may not have the
same chance unless you help in the drive
the Salvation Army is making today
