VCE-PRESIDENT
SAYS WARS WILL
NOT DISAPPEAR

Carlisle, Penn, Dec. 2O.-Vice Pres1-
dent Marshall, in an address tonight
to the Carlisle Chamber of Commerce
gave his views on some of the ques-
tions to be discussed in connection
with the peace conference, with the
explanation that he had no thought OF
endeavoring to affect the presidents
negotiations.
On the question of world league
to prevent war, he said, that all right
thinking men agree it is desirable,
but declared that until all men are
of good will, wars will not cease, I'm
less the nations desire peace at any
prize. He predicted that unless trade
agreements were made between the
associated nations, the existing cordi-
al relations will not last. Urging the
extension of the American Merchant
Marine, he opposed government own
ership, but declared that it was pre-
ferable to ship subsidy.

PENSACOLA TO BE
IMPORTANT RADIO
STATION ON GULF

With the resumption of peace, PEN
sacola will become one Of the main
telegraph and radio stations on the
gulf for communication with ships at
sea. With a special wire connecting
the Offices of the Western Union Tel
egraph company with the Naval Air
Station, communication with ships at
sea will be resumed. when the gov
ernment has lifted the ban on private
messages.
Although no information has been
received at the telegraph office as to
when the ban will be lifted, the COM
pany is preparing to care for big
business in wire and radio messages
at an early date. Pensacola will rate
in this business with all Atlantic and
gulf ports such as Boston, New York,
Port Arthur, Key West and Port Isa-

Happy Soldiers Leave City in
High Spirits for Demob-
iliZation Camps.
800 MORE TO GO
BEFORE CHRISTMAS
Men Are to Be Sent to Camps
in Texas, Michigan, Ark
anSas, and Ohio.

One hundred and fifty men left Bar
rancas last night for Camps in Texas,
Michigan, Arkansas and Ohio. and six
hundred and fifty more will leave be-
fore December 25th.
These men will be discharged with
in twenty -four hours after they reach
the various camps, each man to re-
ceive his discharge at a camp within
one hundred and fifty miles of his
home town.
The soldiers who left last night came
up to the city on the government
boat, the Swartout, which had much
difficulty in landing because of the
high seas. Officials at Fort Barran-
cas- said last night that they were
forced to use the government boat as
the electric line running between the
city and the b. -ison and naval air
station had been put out Of commis-
sion, and the soldiers would have been
forced to ford the bayou on foot The
mail at the post was also delayed
last night on account of the wash
out.

WESTERN UNION
ANDPOSTALNOT
TO JOIN in CITY
LITTLE LIKELIHOOD THAT LOCAL
OFFICES WILL OPERATE AS ONE,
UNDER GOVERNMENT.

There is little likelihood of the. un-
ion of the two telegraph offices in
Pensacola, according to information
received at both the Postal and West
ern Union offices. Although the or
der for the combination of the two
offices was issued from Washington
some time ago. and some offices have
already combined, telegraph officials
do not expect such action here.
Investigation reveals that in most
places where the two companys have
been consolidated into one Office the
town has been so small as not to sup
ply sufficient business to necessitate
both offices. In such cases they were
united.
Telegraph officials here believe the
union of the two telegraph offices in
Pensacola depend more upon whether
or not the government permanently
retains ownership of the wire lines,
than any other factor. Both offices
now have nearly all the work they
can handle, inquiry reveals.

there was a sharp rise in the price

Henry Villaine, chief of the French
commission sent to collect evidence
concerning the conflict of the Ukraine
and Poland, has been shot and killed
by Ukrainian soldiers, according to
telegram from Lemberg, just received
by the Polish bureau at Lausanne.
The French commission arrived at

there between Polish and Ukrainian
troops. 1t was, however, able to COM
plete it's inquiry and was about to re-
turn to France when its chief was

MAIL CARRIERS NOT
TO BE ASKED TO
GARRY TELEGRAMS

Although all plans OF procedure for
the delivery of telegraph messages re-
ceived here by mail carrier, it is not
probable that the plan will be put
into operation in Pensacola, accord
ing to an announcement made by hte
manager of the Western Union Tele-
graph company.
Some time ago Postmaster Hancock
and Western Union officials here dis
cussed the possibility OF following
Postmaster General Burleson's plan
here. because Of the scarcity of mes
senger boys. With the signing of the
armistice and the release of boys from
more remunerative occupations, mes
senger boys are not now so scarce,
telegraph officials say.
Since the postoffice department has
left the matter of using the mails for
the delivery of messages largely to
the discretion of local authorities, it
seems improbable that this means of
delivery will have to be resorted to, it
is said.
