NEW CONTINGENT
OF TROOPS HERE

About $50 troops which reached the
city for station at Fort Barrancas were
overjoyed on reaching Main street
and leaving the cars which they had
been in for the past twenty-four hours,
from Fort Thomas, Kentucky, to Flori-
da, for they were informed that they
were in twenty minutes OF their desti-
nation. The strappinS young Ameri-
cans were lined up on Main street and
for about thirty minutes. it was stated,
waited for transportation facilities to
the post.
After a tiresome wait by the troop
ers, who were good-natured despite
their long ride, a motor car and three
trailers showed up and the cars were
switched conveniently and the soldiers
were ordered to get aboard. The COM
mand was not repeated for it required
about three minutes to fill the limited
transportation. About the time they
We're ready to start the motor car was
called on to stop and then hot box
was discovered. 1t was about half an
hour attending to this trouble.

Editor Journal: The people living
along the county hard roads in Es-
Gambia county should have some pro-
lection against the killing OF their
stock by automobiles and I appeal to
you to give this letter publicity.
1 realize that there are some auto

property rights of other people, un-

Of hair-brained joy-riders and others
who have no consideration for the
rights OF the people who live along the

1t is impossible for the small far
mer to keep his stock in pasture. The
wild pasture lands of the county
should be available to the farmers AMI
stockraisers without exposing their
animals to the wanton and reckless
automobile drivers using the public

lands by the farmer and stockraiser
at this time is great aid to the coun-

and horses and mules are daily killed

all instances. The automobilists kill
more than the railroads and the far

My proposition is that a tax shall

DECEPTIVE PROPAGANDA

Advices from the American Minister to Hol-
land indicate that propaganda, the origin OF
which can only be coNjectured here, is being en-
ployed in that country to create alarm among
the people~pver the safety of the Dutch ships
United States Government.
The matter is so exploited in the Dutch press
that readers are led to believe the 80 Dutch YES
sells taken over by the United States in accord
ance with provisions of international law, are
so badly manned and operated that by the end
of the war there will be nothing left of the fleet
worth returning to the owners
Inquiry into the facts would show that not
only is there no foundation for dispute on the
part of the Dutch people over the manning of
their ships, but that the vessels are in better
condition than they were when under the con-
troll of their owners.
The ships have been improved through the
expenditure of several hundred thousand dol
lars for equipment they did not have when taken
over. Electric lights, wireless installations and
refrigerating plants have been put on all the
the vessels that did not have them before
while extensive general repairs have been made
and the crews quarters all the ships have
been greatly improved, to bring them up to the
American standard.
In line with it's established policy of fairness,
the United States will return to Holland ships
better than when they were taken over-ships
improved by the enforced service which they
are giving in the winning of the worlds war for
democracy.

INTERNATIONAL RESERVE BOARD

To preserve the financial stability of the world
at the close of the war, David Lubin proposes
formation of an international reserve board
organized along the lines of the federal reserve
board of the United States. M. Lubin, who is
delegate of the United States at the international
institute of agriculture, at Rome, fears that, un-
less precautionary measures are taken, depre-
citation of paper money will result in serious fin
ancial panics and crises when international
commerce, freed from artificial barriers, again
flows into normal channels
1t is claimed that such an international reserve
board, formed by the allied nations, could first
of all, act an international clearing house; it
could regulate the ebb and flow of gold; it could
supervise the factors that go to determine the
rates of interest and exchange rates; it could
perform along international lines essential func-
tions performed on national lines by the
federal reserve board; and it could render such
other services toward the end in view as might
be assigned to it.
Moreover, one of the principal advantages to
be derived from the proposed International Re-
serve Board would be that its international
character would tend to concentrate the best
financial minds in the allied countries on the
solution of any financial difficulty in any one of
these countries. In this way it would more
surely tend to remove the cause of such difficulty,
thus safeguarding the entire credit structure.

HELPS WIN WAR
BY CONSERVING
ON HIS GASOLINE

George V. Axelson, one of Pensaco-
las enthusiasts in the War Savings
drive, is probably the only man in the
United States who has pledged his
automobile to help win the war. Mr..
AXelson has taken out a War Savings
ard. in which he pledges his automo-
le to purchase fifty-five war savings
'tificates before the end of the year
Mr.. Axelson has recently bought a
arburetor which saves him such a
gercentage of gasoline. as makes this
nssible, and he intends to have his
utomobile make good this pledge.
This is something unique in the way
I war saving. and a splendid evidence
= patriotism at the same time.

EQUALITY OF NATIONS.
democracy.

1.-THE preservation of human rights and the
equality of nations" is expression in Presi-
dent Wilson's letter to the Greek King, thank
ing the King for his congratulations upon the
Fourth. The first part of the expression con-
tains venerable idea-the preservation of hui
man rights-but the latter part-the equality of
nations-was born of the, bloody emergency
through which the world is passing, and it finds
it's parentage in America. 1t was never set up
as a war propaganda until Prussianism sought to
dominate the earth. And it was President Will
sons trumpet that sounded it throughout the
earth "The equality of nations"-that is the
great thing the war is about. And this equality
demands the unity of nations as expressed in a
league, whose purpose is the defense of each ma
ton and this implies the preservation of human
rights. 1t is a golden expression and contains
the logic of the whole bloody situation we are
in and the consequences that are to flow from it.

TRAFF|G LAWS IN
PAMPHLET FORM.

Pamphlet copies of traffic ordinance
containing all details of such a mea-
sure, and Incorporating the latest
amendments which have been made by
the commissioners, have been printed
and are at the police station for gener-
al distribution TO those who call for
them. Persons who drive autos should
provide themselves with copies, which
may be had on request to the chief
or desk sergeant, for it may pay TO be
well informed. The city is proceeding
with a firm hand to enforce these laws

cepted as no excuse. The traffic laws
are comprehensive and are reported to
be violated by the average autoist in

A WILLING SERVICE.

Secretary of the Navy Daniels gives hearty
endorsement to the fine work which the war and
navy commissions training camp activities,
through the camp community service, is
performing in providing hospitality and COM
forts for the men in uniform when on leave of
absence from their stations.
He says: THE fine spirit and high morals of
our soldiers and sailors, inspired by the convic-
lions that they are fighting unselishly in just
and noble cause, can never be defeated and
nothing win conserve and strengthen that spirit
and high morals more than the hospitality and
good will shown them by such organizations as
yours If the men in the service know that we
who stay home are behind them to a man.
nothing viii stop their advance to victory
That the service men, too, appreciate what is
being done for their comfort and entertainment
is evidenced by the large numbers who daily
visit the local Army and Navy Club and enjoy
its hospitality.
The activities of the war camp community
service constitute most important work of the
American people-one which they gladly render
to help brighten the idle moments of the brave
men who are going overseas to battle for
humanity.

line regiment in the world, and possesses the

regiment is to be found again on duty in
