AN IMPORTANT PROJECT.

It is gratifying to know that completion OF
the Mclaughlin road, across Baldwin county and
giving Pensacola and Mobile direct connection,
seems assured.
The project has chung fire" for long time,
but Henry Mclaughlin has held tenaciously to
his undertaking. Disappointment and discour-
agements have been many, but it is now init
mated that his plans have found favor with the
government and that the war finance corpora
ton win make possible the building of the re-
manning stretch of road and the terminals on
Blakesly island.
Pensacola has failed to fully appreciate the
Importance of the Mclaughlin road to the de-
velopment of this section. 1t would open an ex-
tensive agricultural territory, giving a ready
market to the fertile farms of Baldwin county.
1T would establish direct rail route between
Pensacola and Mobile, shortening the distance
A miles. More than that, it would give Pensa-
cola additional rail facilities which the govern
ment considers essential TO full development
of our port. With the Mclaughlin road extended
TO Blakesly island it could quickly and cheaply
transport to ships in Pensacola harbor coal and
other freight brought down the Alabama rivers
in barges.
Because of our deep water and other advan-
tages it is stated that ships would be sent here
in large numbers if the freight could be de-
livered here. The government seems convinced
that our present rail facilities are inadequate,
but officials state that completion of the
Mclaughlin road would materially improve the
situation. Such being the case, it behooves
every Pensacolian to familiarize himself with
the Mclaughlin project, to talk it. boost it and
lend helping hand in every possible way so
that instead of seems assured" it may be pos
sible to say Completion of the road is definitely
certain"

Y. M. C. A. SPORTS


Over one million, to be exact 1,201, 038 soldier
and sailor spectators watched 605,469 of their
fellows participate in thirty different kinds of
sports in twenty-six camps in the Southeastern
Department dusing the month of June under the
auspices of the Y. M. c. A; 165, 156 games, meets,
bouts, etc., were necessary to arrive at these
totals.
These figures, showing at glance the immen-
sity of the work accomplished, were compiled by
the Y M. C. A athletic directors at each building,
in turn compiled by the camp athletic director
and forwarded to the Southeastern Department
headquarters for the department compilation.
One of the aims of the Y M. c. A. is to reach
the greatest number, to amuse and entertain all
the soldiers and sailors and not just few. A
total of 1908, 9O7 khaki and blue clad boys were
reached through the Y. M. c. A. physical activi-
ties during June, either as participants
spectators.
This does not include those reached by
certs, theatricals, and other forms of amuse-
ments, but just through physical activities.
The average shows that every sailor and SOL
der in the Southeastern department attended or
participated in four different athletic events dur
ing the month.
In popularity, baseball ranks as first for the
past month, participants and spectators for that
sport showing sol ,772 men reached, made up of
126,740 players participating in 9,278 games
which were witnessed by 465,032 spectators.
Volley ball came second with total of 276,767
men reached, Boxing third with 274,220 and

A FITTING ANSWER.

The expected German peace proposals have
been made according to advices from Spain.
They are typical German proposals, somewhat
modified but still unacceptable
Richard H. Edmonds, editor of the Manufac-
turers Record who, by the way, has developed
into one of Americas most forceful writers on
the war-anticipated the proposals and answered
them before they issued. He says:
Unconstitutional surrender must be Ameri-
cas- answer to any suggestion of peace from Ger
many, and there should be no consideration even
of unconditional surrender until Germany's ar
mics have by the power of might been driven
from every country which they have over
run and until millions of soldiers of the Allies
which means our soldiers and the soldiers of our
European Allies-have marched through Ger
many and Austria and Turkey and taken pos
session of Berlin, Vienna and Constantinople
Not until this has been done will the people of
these countries fully comprehend that all their
boosted power is gone and that they have been
overwhelmingly defeated.
1--WE absolutely dissent from the teaching that
no indemnity from Germany and its allies shall
be demanded by the United States. Why should
to stay the rush of the murderers and looters and
not demand repayment of the cost and the re-
turn of the loot? Idealism that we are fighting
me:ely on altrustic principles must give way to
stern, unfagging, neverceasing determination to
punish these robber nations and make them pay
the full penalty for their crimes
Our task is to crush that fiendsh power and
grind it into atoms, and scatter these atoms to
the winds of the earth, that never again may
civilization have to face such tremendous ordeal
of suffering.
Better thousand times would be the death
of every man and Woman in America than dam
nation under any other terms than the uncondi-
tional surrender of Germany and it's allies, and
their fullest measure of punishment as matched
against the blood-soaked earth which their
crimes have brought about"
