A GREATER WEST FLORIDA.

West Florida will be organized a great force
to back the movement for centennial for PEN
sacola, and during the next three weeks a whiri-
wind campaign will be made throughout this Sec
ton of the state. promote interest the great
exposition and to consolidate the forces already
work.
The unity of spirit which has animated West
Florida during the past two years when coopera-
ton accomplished some wonderful results, will be
to set the machinery of the Florida centennial in
motion. but to carry of the great
est movement that Pensacola and West Florida
have fostered.
The close social and commercial relations that
exist in this part of the life to the
fact that every town in this territory largely de-
pendent upon every other town. Milton and De-
Funiak are but little farther from Pensacola than
are parts of Chicago from other parts or boroughs
of Manhattan from other boroughs. The interests
of the towns of West Florida are almost identical
and whatever tends to build one must build the
other.
great centennial for Pensacola means a
greater Pensacola and the growth of this city
means an increase in population and business for
every other town in this section. 3
Good roads and automobiles are. bringing West
Florida into closer union each day. The centennial

velopment and the committee that goes out from
Pensacola will go forth with that same spirit that
made the Pensacola zone notable during the world
war, and that put West Florida way over the top
in every drive during that period.
Let US go out, them with the same courage and
with firm faith in our people in time of peace as
In time of war, and let put Pensacola and West
Florida over in the Victory Centennial drive
which will make of this section what 1T was de-

OkALOOSA PAPER FAvORe
ANNEXATION TO ALABAMA
HI xxs zxs SEE &c

We are printing elsewhere in this
issue of the News Journal an Associ-
ated Press dispatch from Montgomery.
Alabama, saying that there 10 to he
bill introduced in the Alabama leg
isiature asking for the annexation OF
all that part OF Florida lying west
sof the Apalachicola or Clattahoochie
river.
No doubt this bill will come to
paught-as all good legislative bills
do but as for the editor of the News
Journal we heartily favor such a hill.
and we hope it will pass. and then
that the next legislature of Florida
will pass, or submit a resolution to its
people to vote on same. II such
things were to happen and we could
be annexed to Alabama, IL would be
the greatest thing for the good of this
section that could possibly be brought
about.
The general conditions of West
Florida are no more like those of
South Florida than they are those of
New York, but are exactly the same
as that of South Alabama, and there
fore our business conditions and rela-
tons would better .harmonize.
With this section annexed to Ala
bama, Pensacola would, within a few
years. become the metropolis of the
south, and all the gulf coast would
flourish as a bay tree beside spring
branch.
This would stop the taxpayers of
West Florida from being deprived Of
their money in eextortiopate legisla-
tive appropriations to foster the COM
mercial industry of South Florida,
such as the citrus canker. ETC.. which
money is totally lost to the tax pay
ers of this section of the state.
