FOR PENSACOLA PROGRESS.

The Kiwanis Club will back up two important
projects of great Importance to this section
the proposed railway line between Pensacola and
Mobile and the construction Of high density
compress for this port.
1t is claimed by those who are in a position to
know that Pensacola is playing losing game
with every day that thrusts farther into the
background the possibility of modern cotton
compress for Pensacola.
1t was stated at the meeting at which the XII
wants Club pledged it's support to the movement
for high density compress, that in 1913 under
the difficulties then existent, and which do not
now exist, and with facilities not nearly so good
that there passed through this port 281 900 bales
of cotton for export. Since that time the use
of high density bales for purposes of economy,
has made it impossible to use the methods then
in vogue, and unless Pensacola meets the same
requirements that other ports are meeting, the
revenue that should come to this port through
cotton shipments must be lost, and to this loss
will be added that of other commodities which
would be exported to fill out the cargoes.
The fact that the Kiwanis Club has pledged
itself to the movement for bigger and better
Pensacola and has appointed committee to meet
with other organizations, evidences that spirit
of determination and cooperation which is bound
to place this city in the very front ranks when
all work together for common cause.-The de-
velopment of Pensacola and West Florida.

ONE HUNDRED PER CENT.

Il ONE HUNDRED PER CENT.
H "For God and country we associate ourselves
together for the following purposes: To uphold
and defend the constitution Of the United States
o, America; to maintain law and order; to foster
and perpetuate a one hundred per cent Ameri-
canism; to preserve the memories and incidents
of our association in the great war; TO NCUL-
CATE SENSE OF INDIVIDUAL OBLIGA-
TION TO THE COMMUNITY, STATE AND
NATION; to combat the autocracy Of both the
classes and masses; to make right the master
of might; to promote peace and goodwill on
earth; to safeguard and transmit to posterity the
principles of justice, freedom and democracy;
to consecrate and sanctify our comradeship by
our devotion to mutual helpfulness."
Nothing could be finer than this constitution
of the American Legion which at its meeting of
Thursday evening pledged itself to these princi-
pies.
The American Legion is non-partisan and nom
political; it's membership is made up of men who
before the were in civilian life, and now that
peace has been declared are once more in the
civilian ranks, as well as men Of the regular
army There distinctions of rank and no
difference made between the men who saw ac-
tive service overseas and the men who did not
cross the ocean.
It is good thing to know that the American
Legion is to be non-partisan for partisanship has
done more to wreck craftsmanship than anything
else in the world. And what we need today in
America are statesmen not politicians, men of
character and vision, not men with axes to grind.
Let us look at the personnel of the men who
make up the national committee of the Ameri-
can Legion Until the meeting which takes place
in Minneapolis in November, they are: Colonel
Henry D. Lindsey, formerly mayor of Dallas
Texas who served on General Harbords staff in
France and later as director of the War Risk In
surance Bureau; Sergeant Jack Sullivan an en-
listed man of Seattle, Washington, first vice
chairman; Fred Humphrey, nineteen year-old
COB from Roswell, New Mexico, second vice.
chairman Phil C. Calhoun of Bridgeport, Conn.,,
a private in the marine corps, third vice-chair-
man; Lieutenant Colonel Eric Fisher Wood of
Pennsylvania, secretary. Could any personnel
be more democratic?
The Legion is the beginning of the transla-
ton into civilian life of America that spirit that
ruled and led at Cantigny, Chateau Thierry, Saint
Mihiel and in the Argonne. It is the spirit that
is going to eliminate politics and put in its place
brotherly love, the might of the strong for the
protection of the weak, the good of the greatest
number over and above the privileges of the few
the spirit of that real democracy, to which
these men pledged themselves; that democracy
which is more than name, that democracy
which is higher than any party, wider than any
platform, and deeper than any partisanship-
real democracy which means A SENSE OF IN
DIVIDUAL OBLIGATION TO THE CONdMUNI.
