RI Q YOU hesitate because you think
prices are too high and you,ll
walt for them to drop2 You're maxi
ing mistake, for prices must stay at
a high level for years.
Consider the facts. There's a trefnen-
dous market in Europe and here at
home for everything we can make
the fundamental law Of supply and de-
mand must work. We have an unpre-
cedented amount of gold in; the. coun-
try, and when there is more money in
circulation and no great increase in
production, we simply pass more gold
around for our goods. We have high
prices in figures-but not in reality,
for IL wages are higher and goods are
higher, the balance remains the same.
So long as the gold stays here, prices
will hold up. In short. business men
say unreservedly that If prices do go
down at all, 1t will be very, very slow
ly. In the meantime, rents are higher
and you pay relatively more to live
as great proportion as though you
built your rome at present figures.

PENSACOLA, OUR HOME.

Since the publication in the last number of The
Rivet, of the poem on Pensacola, the editor has
been swamped with contributions derogatory to
this city. This is a spirit with which we are not
in sympathy and contributions OF uncon-
structive criticism will be published. The Pen
sacola Shipbuilding company wants permanent
employees, not transcients, and to be permanent
employees must make Pensacola our home
town. There are many things which we would
be glad to see changed and it is up to us to be-
come good citizens and do all in our power to
change the city for the better. But we must
accomplish our purpose by cooperation with the
older residents and by bringing them to our way
of thinking. The 1000 employees of this plant
are political and social power to be reckoned
with and our forces as a whole, thrown in the
balance for any constructive measure will bring
about any result which we desire. It's up to us
to become good citizens first then interest our
selves in making Pensacola a city in which we
will be glad and proud to live We cannot do this
by knocking-The Rivet

WATCH YOUR STEP.

There has been much criticism recently in re-
gard to the public transportation facilities in
Pensacola, and much of this criticism is just
But it must be remembered that there are two
sides to every question.
That gentleman of the friendly notices, Mr..
Theodore P. Shonts, has not given the public to
the north of us tina kind of service which may be
taken example for the P E. c. to follow,
for the service which is operated under his
auspices is about as bad in some ways as it is
possible for service to be. But Mr.. Shonts has
done one thing that has aided materially In help
ing the public to help themselves, through the
signed messages which he has placed in the sub
ways of New York city, calling attention to the
necessity of cooperation, if the public is to be-
served instead of be-damned.
And some of these friendly notices give some
very excellent advice. Here in Pensacola the
public is certainly receiving most unsatisfactory
car service, which seems to get worse and worse
| in many respects
But there are ways in which the public can
serve It's own interests. To have the fare ready
when you enter the helps you, it helps the
conductor, but most of all it helps the other fell
low. And it is the same with rising promptly
and getting off the car with expedition-it saves
lots OF valuable time, for everybody concerned.

HOUSING PROBLEMS.

According to the secretary of the Chamber OF
Commerce, who also holds position under the
government in connection with the Housing
Bureau, unless the people of Pensacola come to
the rescue, the husing situation, which is now
bad will become acute, and many prospective
tourists and settlers will be unable to ind &C
commodations of any kind and will be forced to
look elsewhere for winter homes or permanent
location.
Each householder should look upon it as his
business to help in relieving the congested con-
ditions which already exist and which are be-
coming worse every day.

have been made by the war are many OF them

NECESSARY SANITARY.

Dr. Paul D. Mossman, of the United States
Public Health Service is frank in his criticism
of the milk supply of this city and section. As
the government is to discontinue the public
health service here, through lack of funds, DIR.
Mossman calls attention to the necessity of tax
ing every precaution to safe guard the public
health, Ind stresses the Importance of sanitation
and greater care of the dairies.
No one who has taken any cogniance whatso-
ever of the condition of the city, and particularly
at the time of the first epidemic of influenza, can
deny the need of stricter attention to sanitation
and basing opinion upon the report made by Dr.
Mossman himself the dairies of this section are
in a deplorable condition, and are menace to
the public health.
During the past year the war has been given
as an excuse for much neglect, but that excuse
does not now hold good. If this city is not now
sanitary, it should be made and kept so; if
the milk supply is impure and endangers health,
the diaries should either be- improved or closed,
one or the other.
That this city needs dairy inspector, no one
will deny But this inspector should be one well
qualified for the job and should be kept on the
Job, day in and day out.
The same holds good with sanitary inspection
Periodical and haphazard visits to eating houses
and fruit stands, and public buildings and back
yards, and long dissertations about them OF
little account unless these visits continued
and public attention takes some active form, and
brings about valuable results.
Let us get Pensacola clean and then let's keer
it clean, call those responsible for it's neglec
to an accounting. Let us get the diaries sanitar.
and then keep them sanitary It does little gooG
to do job we'll today and leave it undone TO

Both the words and the music of the Mar
seiilaise are the compostio nof Claude Joseph
Rouget de Lisle, captain in the French army.
He was quartered at Strasburg in 1892, when,
at party, the Mayor of Strasburg expressed a
regret that the soldiers had no potriotic march
ing song. De Lisle, who was an amateur violin
lst' went home to his lodging, and during the
night picked out on his violin the tune which has
since become so famous, and wrote the words.
Next day the song was sung and by the follow
mig day it was arranged for a military band. For
125 years the piece has been the national anthem
of the French people.

PROGRESS.

Of the notable enterprises which are destined
to become important factors in Pensacola's flu
ture, is of greater significance than the
location of fuel oil station at this port.
A considerable amount of fuel oil is already
consumed here, and the establishment of sta
ton in Pensacola will mean, according to au-
thorities on maritime matters, the attraction to
this port of batteships and the biggest of ocean
liners, many of which use fuel oil.
Most of the wooden ships which have been
butt at this port during the past few months
have auxiliary motors operated by fuel oil, and
many of the small craft which ply the waters
hereabout will be supplied by the great tanks
which are to be erected here by the Texas Oil
Company
Pensacola will be one of the few ports of the
Gulf Coast where facilities of this kind will be
obtainable, and the location of the station here
should mean much for the future development
of this port.

DENIES "GENTLEMEN'S
AGREEMENT" BETWEEN
AMERICA AND JAPAN
(By Associated P-ess)

TOXIC, Mar. 2S-In the house of
peers today member presented ali,
Interpolation regarding the tcrms and
the period of enforcement of the gen
tlemen's agreement" concluded in
1907, between Japan and the United
States and asked whether the said
agreement is intended to be kept in
force forever. He stated that he had
heard that the regulation of emigra-
ton was enforced more strictly by the
Japanese authorities than by the
Americans. He wanted to know the
reason why Japanese are being sub
jected to such regulations while the
Mexicans and PHILIPPINES are freely ad
mitted to America.
NJ. Shidehara, minister of for
eign affairs, replied that the so-called
"gentlemen's agreement did not eX-
ist. There was voluntary declara-
tion made by Japan for regulating the
influx Of Japanese to America. Il
means that no Japanese may emigrate
but those who are already in America
are free to call their families from
pan. The imperial government is
bound to live up to its declaration, he
said. Many a time anti-Japanese laws
are understood to have been brought
before American legislatures but ow
ing to and in apprecia ton of Japan's
efforts all such anti-Japanese mea-
sures have failed to pass. The said
declaration will be kept in force for
some time yet; it may be abolished
when the Japanese immigrants con-
vince the American authorities that
their presence is no cause of danger
to American institutions.
