LEVER WON'T STAND CLARK
Will Support No Man Who Says Con
script is Synonymous to Convict.

Washington, March 16.-'I will
support no man who will say that
conscript is synonymous with con-
vict.'' This declaration accompanies
statement issued by Representative
Asbury F. Lever today, in which he
definitely aligns himself with the
fight to prevent the selection of
Champ Clark as a minority leader of
the next house.
His outspoken opposition to the
present speaker is asserted by Dem
ocratic reorganizers in the house to
be typical of the attitude of other
equally prominent friends of the ad-
ministration who have not publicly
voiced their views. His affiliations
with the anti-Clark movement un-
doubtedly strengthens the reorgani-
zation element, as he has been one
of the administration mainstays on
war legislation. Mr.. Lever said:
Levers Statement.
81 regard it of the utmost impor-
tance to the future success of the
Democratic party that the minority
leadership in the next congress shall
be strong, aggressive and in the full
est sympathy, not an enforced sym
pathy, with the plans and purposes
of the president of the United States,
who for six years has been the elect
ed spokesman and leader of his par
ty. The leadership of the minority
in the next congress should have no
axes to grind and no personal ambi-
tions to serve. 1t should be such a
leadership as can freely and without
hesitation confer with the actual
leader of the party policies. With
out such harmonious relationship
the situation for 1920 is impossible;

W. NJ. L. INSTITUTE.
Held at Denmark Baptist Church
Last Friday.

A Baptist institute of the western
division of the w. NJ. U. of S. g., was
held at Denmark last Friday. This
division is composed of four assocla-
tions, including Barnwell association
The meeting was one of the most in
spirational the writer has ever at
tended. Mrs. J. R. Fizer, of Colum-
bia. State corresponding secretary;
Mrs. Geo. E. Davis, of Orangeburg,
State superintendent of girls auxili-
aries, and Miss Kathleen Mallory, of
baltimore, corresponding secretary
of the Southern Baptist w. NJ. u,
we're present. With these three gift
ed women nothing but feast could
be in store. Mrs. ]. R. Fizer brought
a message to the meeting in what she
termed the "call of the day for Wo-
men," She made it very clear that
there is call for every woman and
girl now in this Christian land OF
ours, and that to accomplish the
task before us we must get busy,
give one-tenth of our means and one
tenth of our thoughts, and
the more we go out On the mountain
and loook up, the more beauty and
Joy in all we will find. She said
much more and gave all who
heard her much to mediate upon.
Miss Kathleen Mallory was present
in the interest of the church building
loan fund. We all felt before Miss
Mallory had spoken that the message
she had to bring would put her to
disadvantage to those who hadn't
heard her before, for we felt that
her message would be uninteresting,
but she was all heart and soul for
the homeless~churches and her en-
thusiasm was an inspiration within
itself. Her appeal was so earnest
that hardly person in the building
but gave literally. The Denmark
W.. M. -. gave pow " uSAoA 1oAAAS
Rev. J. D. Higgins, their pastor, who
died few months ago. The Bam-
berg w. M. S. gave $500 in memory
of their mother member, Mrs. S. H.
Counts, Miss Mallory had subscrib-
ed something over $4,000 out of a
mere handful of women. Her per-
sonality and her vision were so ap-
pealing, that her presence was alone
worth while, and those who failed to
hear her missed a rare treat.
Mrs. Geo. Davis gave a message
about our girls. She said the most
important thing today is the Chris
tian woman, and she laid great stress
on the duty and obligations our girls
and women are under now to our
home coming soldier boys, and it is
her prayer that we may hold up the
standard and show ourselves worthy.
The mingling together of the la
dies during the social hour was very
pleasant, and the hospitality of the
Denmark ladies was unsurpassed.
The lunch was bountiful, and the en-
tire day was one sweet memory to
those who were there.-Contributed.

VOX POPULI

Editor Journal: AS we are about to
elect a. commissioner. it will be well
to know how they stand about the
health department. 1t ought to be
taken entirely out of politics, then
there should be a man of good judg-
ment, with common sense and back
bone, in charge of it. Give him free
rein and hold him responsible for
sanitary conditions. We have a place
about IL by 1-2 miles, with a pop
ulation of about $4,000. Now If we
are obliged to call in help from all
over the United States to help us take
care of our little city, what would We
do if we had 10 by 20 miles with a
100000 population. We would be OBJ
liged to send to Europe for help.

tire city and makes it appear as
though there were no capable people
here, while the fact is there is just as
much intelligence here to the square
inch as there is anywhere. So let us
get busy, have the candidates show
their hands, then get behind them and
see that they keep their promises and
is costing us so much money.

PENSACOLA NEEDS A WILSON"

Pensacola faces most critical period in the
history of her existence, in the coming months
of reconstruction, and so far has done little to
warrant benefits from trade which might be at
tracted here. There seems to be an apathy among
business men and capitalists of the city, which
is unwarranted. If Pensacola will exert every eff
fort for nothing short of that Will win, there is
no reason why this city should not share in the
future of the Greater South, which is on the
way.
New Orleans is voting millions for the i'm
prOven1ent of her harbor and wharfage facili-
ties. Pensacola is doing nothing Mobile is ex-
erting every effort to attract trade to an infer
ior harbor and Pensacola stands still. Miami is
deepening the channel to her harbor, an unneces-
sary feature here, and Pensacola will be the
loser. Tampa woke up the other day and set
the nation looking her way, when steamships
threatened to stop plying into that port. We
tell ourselves what wonderful harbor we have
here Who else knows it or believes it?
The city once voted half a million in bonds for
a municipal dock and belt line railway. There
is no move to construct these needed improve
nnents which the U. S. Shipping Board has said
are necessary if Pensacola is to be recommended
for future trade in Americas new maratime
commerce. Pensacola consoles herself and an
occasion visitor, with her wonderful harbor. Half
the great shippers of this country have not yet
heard that Pensacola has the deep water port
she has.
Why? There is capital here and the ability
among our business men to spend it judciously,
for the attraction of commerce to this port which
would leave thousands of dollars in this city
Must Pensacola stand idly by and lose golden op-
portunities for the lack of Wilson to guide
the destinies of this port? Wake up Pensacola!

SAVE THE EMPLOYMENT SERVICE.


The u. S. Employment Office seems destined
to be scrapped, along with other features of the
government, which never received the attention
they deserved, until war time stress forced them
into the limelight. If the federal employment
service is discontinued the best friend the work.
ing man ever had, will be lost to him.
There is more to the redistributing of labor
than bringing together the "manless job" and
the "jobless man." Union labor and unorganized
labor never before had the service afforded for
finding agreeable and remunerative work, than
the federal employment service offered.
Must we return to the private bureaus, where
one planks down a ten-spot before they talk to
him, and then get the laborer fired few days
after he is hired, to give the manager and the
boss another $3.50 whack at the workers pocket
book? If so, we are entering period of redis-
truction, rather than of reconstruction.
Should organized labor of America demand the
continuation of the federal employment service,
no legislator would dare father plan for it's dis
continuation. Wake up unionists, before the "day
is done!"

LABOR TROUBLE NOT DEVASTATED.

LABOR INOO01AE NOl OEGS -OGA1EO
Unrest in labor circle seems to be more tenn
porary reaction from the strain of war than an
expression of dissatisfaction with conditions in
this country. Strikes that looked formidable
have been settled in few days without trouble.
American workmen are not anarchists. They
desire. a chance to win fortunes and high station
in political or business circles. They strike for
more pay or shorter hours but they do not wish
to upset the existing social order which pro-
vides opportunity for everyone in accordance
with his industry, enterprise and ability.
Ole Hansan, Mayor of Seattle, understands
these facts. A few agitators went 80 far as to
declare Soviet government modelled on the Boil
shevist Soviets in Russia The mayor declared
that the seat of government was in the city hall,
and all opposition to his lawful authority faded
away He had behind him the American work.
men of the city who believe that their country
is the best in the world and that freedom de-
ponds on giving effect to the expressed will of
the majority. In Paterson, N. J.. and other tex
tile centers, strikes have been settled with little
trouble. Employers realize tina. wages cannot
be reduced until the cost of living is scaled down.
Success in foreign trade depends largely on
costs of production. Comparisons between pres
ent labor costs in America and those prevailing
in Europe tafore the war are valueless. Wages
are higher than ever before ON the other side
of the Atlantic and the toilers are determined
not to revert to former conditions. In the United
Kingdom labor has won many concessions.
American manufacturers should not be discour-
aged by the fear that European competitors can
return to the low costs of production which pre-
vailed in former years
Unemployment has increased in New York and
other large cities. Thousands of demobilized
soldiers are trying to obtain work in such places
instead of returning to their homes or going to
sections where work is more plentiful Farmers
alone, it is claimed, can employ two million men
and the spring season is opening. Proper adj
justments of wages and costs of building mater
ials would clear the way for construction on
large scale. The lack of housing accommoda-
tions has become very serious.
In Washington sharp differences of opinion be-
tween the War Department and the Department
of Labor reported. Some labor department
officials have suggested that soldiers be demob-
ilized in industrial units which is the English
system; but the War Department regards this
as inexpedient for military reasons. So much
depends on the redistribution of labor on peace
basis that it should engage the attention of con-
gress and other public bodies.

as putting us in a bad light before
the world, and If there are places to
be filled with fair salaries, let's give
them to the home folks. The city and
county each have all they can attend
to now, and yet they are continually
being called on to create some new
office for some outsider. Lets get at
these things right and quit backing
the fair face of Pensacola.

SOLDIERS REFUTE BREsT CHARGES.

After all, the best answer to the charges re-
garding conditions at Rrest is found in the ex-
pressions of the men stationed there. News
paper correspondents, seeking the real facts, in
terviewed hundreds of the $4,000 at Camp Pom
tanezen and found none who did not say that
the rations are the best in France and that every
thing humanity possible is being done to make
them comfortable
Brest is not an Eysian field It's de luxe con-
veniences for either officers or men are scant
But the soldiers experience here is only an atom
in the general misery of the war in France
Every day the conditions improve. Each soldier
will set sail from the camp as we'll clothed, as
well fed, as clean and healthy as it is possible
for him to be-
1t is gratifying to the American people to know
that conditions at Brest are not nearly SO bad
as they were represented and that everything
possible has been done to safeguard the health
and comfort of the men,

DEFENSE COUNCIL HAS IMPORTANT
WORK

Much work still remains for the 100000 COM
munity councils of defense. Franklin K Lane,
secretary of the interior has called upon the or
ganzation to assist returning soldiers in obtain
ing employment; to protect soldiers rights in
litigation. to see to it that no disabled man re-
turning to the community fails to take the spec
ial vocational training given by the federal
board for vocational education which will fit him
to earn his living, and that he is not misled by
unwise entertainment to believe that he can live
on his reputation.
Appropriate reception for each soldier and
sailor Immediately upon his return; assistance
in orderly rehabilitation; apprehension of de-
serters and of false claims of allotments and al
lowances, are among the other duties assigned
to the councils.
Another important field of activity will be
safeguarding the moral welfare of the returning
men by seeing that all regulations as to sale of
liquor and for the prevention of venereal dis
eases are vigorously enforced and that if such
ordinances do not exist they are Immediately en-
acted.
Secretary Lane emphasizes the Importance of
the organization during the reconstruction per-
lod and says 1.-THE permanent, non-partisan COM
munlty is the best means at hand for preserving
in the national interest the superb cooperation
and unity which has been one of the great as
sets of the war to America"
