Sacramento, Sept. 22.-The League
of Nations is a guarantee of justice
ma dwithout the treaty of peace with
Germany, including the league COW
enant, the world would sink back in
that slough of despond which man
kind was in before the war began
President Wilson told the crowd of

twenty minutes this afternoon.
The league affords the only hope
of China for restoration of their SOW
eighty at Shantung, the president as
serted.
Departure of the presidents train
was delayed a while on account of
crowds on the tarcks. A large per
centage of the crowd was women and
children. A six-year-old boy vainly
attempted to force his way through
calling, Il want to shake hands with
the president" Finally man picked
him up and passed him over the heads
of the crowd to the president, who
shook his hands and patted his head
before passing him back to the near
est men. The president spoke only
after repeated demands.

EIGHTEEN MILL
TAX RATE WILL
Be NECESSARY
All Efforts to Reduce Millage
Failed-Business Houses to
Be Licensed to Increase City
Revenue.

Taxation on real and personal prop
erty in the city of Pensacola will
total f8 mills for the fiscal year be-
ginning October l.
All efforts OF ti4e hoard of commits
ssiorers to reduce taxation TO 10 mills
FAILED it was announced at the city
hall yesterday. The increase in the
city fire department. made impera-
tive by a bill passed through the 1913
session of the legislature, and in
creasing overhead expenses, Were
given as reasons for retaining the
millage at last years figures. Tie
bfll sponsored by Representative Her
bert Caro-, provides for 12-hour
Shift at all city truck houses and
makes extra help necessary.
No assurance was given by mem
bers of the board that the many petit
tions for salary increases would be
granted. Practically every department
of the municipal government has
asked for additional money with
which to meet the increasing cost of
living. 1t is argued that a wholesale
raise would further increase the bur
den of taxation. No definite answer
has been given to the requests. When
the budget is completed at a speci31
meeting, which viii be called this
week. the matter will be taken up.
The millage. which will be levied
on taxable property. both real and
personal, calls for one and three
quarters mills for the general fund
two and one-half mills for police pro-
lection, four and one-half mills for
streets. parks and public works, six
mills for interest on bonded indebt-
edness, and three and one-quarter
mills for protection from fire, on all
property except real estate situated
more than 1000 feet from the nearest
fire station.
Practically every line of business in
tax for the coming year A lengthy
license ordinance has been prepared
which provides for additional pay
ment for the privilege of carrying on
business.
1t was stated at the municipal build
ing that the, license increase is com
mensurate with the schedule of ex-
penses and the additional revenuel
necessary.
With the compiling of the new bud
get, the entire transactions for the
coming year will be changed. In the
office of the city comptroller all book
keeping methods win be simplified and
and new system put in.
This departure. follows the audit
made by Frank Hagerman, who will

Adoption of Strong Resolution
Was Heartily Enthusiastic
and Vote Was Practically
Unanimous Without Debate.
SAMUEL GOMPERS SAYS
RATIFICATION NECESSARY
Return to Normal Conditions in
Industry Impossible Until
Peace Is Definitely Settled
Was Sense of Gathering.

New Orleans, Sept. 2.-Delegates to
the fifteenth annual convention of the
Associated Advertising Clubs of the
World today adopted a resolution
pledging their faith in the peace trea-
ty and league of nations covenant
and urging the speedy ratifica-
ton in the senate without amend
ment or reservation"
The resolution was introduced at
the opening business resslcn today by
James Schermerhorn. editor and pub
Usher of the Detroit Times. The
speaker declared the economic world
now was divided and disturbed and
that immediate action on the treaty
and covenant by the United State;
was essential to the welfare of all
countries.
S. c. Dobbs. of Atlanta, and C:ecrge
Coleman, of Boston, former pres .dent
of the ASSOCIATION spoke in favor of
the resolution.
When a call for a second was is
sued there were several hundred men
on their feet. Finally a representative
of the Dallas Texas delegation made
himself heard and announced thai
three hundred and fifty Texas dele
gates wished to second it, There
were no speeches in opposition.
A rising vote was taken practically
all delegates rising. 1t is estimated
there were less than fifty who re-
manned seated.
Delegates were present from every
state in the Union and several Sec
tions of Canada as well as n sprilk-
ling from Latin American representa-
tives. The tumult that followed the
adoption, when fans, hats, badges.

dent Wilson.
The meeting was presided over by
William G. darcy, of St. Louis, presi-
dent of the association. Mr.. darcy re-
viewed his activities as president dur
ing the past year.
Samuel Gompers, who represented
labor in the triangular discussion of
capital, labor and consumer, was un-
able to be present but telegraphed the
convention he regretted inability, add
ing that recent developments made it
necessary for him to be in constant
communication by telephone with vari-
Gus parts of the country.
A paper prepared by Mr.. Gompers
was read by DIR. A. B. Dinwiddie,
president of the Tulane university. He
said:
Cooperation between arrangements
and workers in industries, and the
gradual abolition of abnormal condi-
tions brought about by war will even
tually bring about the increased pro-
duction of commodities which tffe
world needs now, President Samuel
Gompers of the American Fedefation of

Clubs of the World in his paper read

Enforce The Dog Law.

The Dog Law passed in 1918 for
Maryland dog owners and farmers
protection was in effect last year, but
many of its re Iuirements and penal
ties were ignored or misunderstood.
Those who paid this tax claim, and
properly, that dog owners who did
net comply with the provisions OF
the law should in fairness be COM
PEELED to contribute their share to
the general welfare. This the Coun-
ty Commissioners are properly try
ing to compel the delinquents to do.
The tax paid by the dog owners is a
very light one for the privilege OF
keeping these dogs for the pleasure
of having them as well as the danger
they may intlict ON their neighbors'
property, and it may be added, in
parentheses, it is usually the worth
less dogs that should be killed that
do the most damage. This tax is
buS one or two dollars a year each.
This is required to be paid on or be-
fore the first day of July of each
year. This date is now passed for
the year 1919, and the owners who
have not paid this small fee and OBJ
tanned their licenses and tags are in
default and liable to the laws pen
allies for the delay. This is for
dogs six months old or over.

FRIDAY AFTERNOON, AUG. 20, 1919
HEAVY WINTER FORECAST

IF present signs exhibited by Dame
Nature are to be relied upon our
residents can look forward to an
early fall and severe winter, local
students of outdoor life say. 1t has
been noticed that various species OF
birds are migrating southwark sew
eral weeks earlier than usual and
this il taken as a sign of an early
fall.
Several times during the past week
focks of black birds were seen pass
ing southwark and reports from
nearby places are to the effect that
focks of these birds have already
disappeared from their haunts. The
usual time for their southern migra-
ton is in September.
People who visited the woods fire.
uuently this summer have observed
that fur bearing animals have been
growing heavy coats. This is an
other time-honored sign presaging
early winter and is said to be wholly
reliable The fur of ground hogs
the nature observer some reliable
shot is found to be long and heavy.
The coats of squirrels are observed
to be thick and these little animals
are industriously storing up large
quantities Of food such as is already
at hand The storing OF. food by the
squirrel this early is an additional
sign to which prophets of precipi-
tous arrival of Old Boreas are point
ing.
1t has been noticed that the north
side of the trunks of trees display
unusually heavy grOwths OF moss,
which is regarded as significant OF a
winter that is going to set in early
and be one of great severity. There
are numerous other signs apparent
to and others not so we'll established.
