New War Insurance Plan

Revision Of the government con-
verified life insurance policy for sol
diers, sailors and marines, to permit
the insured man to choose whether
payment shall be in lump sum or
in monthly installments extending
over twenty years, probably will be
made soon by the war risk insurance
bureau.
Under the proposed revision bene
ficiary would not be allowed to exer-
else an option, but the insured man
could choose either plan and could re-
wise his decision at any time before
death.

The socalled German "government"
is not very favorably impressed with
the terms of the peace covenant, but
the Huns had better sign it or the
worst is yet to come. From the trend
of the news from Berlin it is reason
able to believe that Ebert and his
coterie of sycophants anticipated a
love letter instead of demand from
the conference of nations.

FOR PUBLIC HEALTH.

For vetoing the bill for the reduction of the
health appropriation, Governor Cats deserves
the commentator of all thinking people of the
state.
When it was proposed to cut this appropria-
ton, The Journal called attention to the grave
injustice that such reduction would be to the
people of Florida, particularly in view of the
movement towards better public health in rela-
ton to the examination of the school children,
and education along the lines of sanitation.
In every movement which is designed to pro-
mote the public welfare, the necessity for awak-
ening the people to conception of their own re-
sponsibilities, is of utmost Importance. That the
health of the children of this state and the safe
ty of communities, through the work of the pub
lie health authorities, can be safeguarded only
through the work of the public health authori-
ties, and that these authorities must have suffi-
Gent funds to carry on their work, is a con-
cluson which needs no defense
When it was proposed to reduce the health ap-
preparation, The Journal strenuously opposed
such cut in the public funds, and following an
editorial opposing this cut, resolutions were
passed by the Rotary Club of Pensacola, and a
wire was sent to Governor Cats, expressing dis
approval of the contemplated reduction.
The Journal believes in every movement for
Tue OetIeIneHt OF the state, 1t Del1eVeS IN every
effort to reduce the taxation of the people, wher-
ever that taxation becomes a hardship and it adj
vocates economy, whenever that economy is just
and well-considered. But when it becomes a
question which menaces the health of the state
and the protection of the children of the state,
through reducing the public funds, by making
impossible the work that is being carried on in
Florida IN relation to MEDICAL examinations in
the schools and sanitation Of cities and rural COM
munltles, it is certainly an unwise policy to place
dollars above decency and the public safety, and
the Governor deserves the appreciation of all
right-thinking people for vetoing the bill to re-
duce the health appropriation

PROTECTING YOUR FAMILY.

We hear great deal about the duty OF pub
lie officials in relation to the public health, and
the fact that these men have been appointed TO
and paid for public duties, is certainly argument
enough that those duties need to be performed,
and that it is up to them to see that they earn
their salaries, even if they have no higher con-
ception of their obligations.
But while we look to the public officials to do
their duty, let US not forget that we have our
own obligations at the home, in the state, and
in the office. It would be an impossible task for
any public officials to keep any city in sanitary
condition. unless these public servants have the
support of the individuals. And it must be re-
membered that, in any neglect of the public
health it is the private Individual who suffers,
for public protection means the protection Of the
individual, in the mass.
With summer upon us, it is well to look to the
health and comfort of ourselves and our families,
remembering that, as we make our own premises
clean and sanitary, we not only help to safeguard
our own health, but we become factor in pro-
tecting the public health.
If it were possible to impress upon ever in
dividual his personal responsibility to the
community, and to persuade or compel every in
dividual to keep the immediate premises or sur
roundngs in state of cleanliness and sanitation,
we should need fewer public servants. The home
has gone out into the world, in large measure,
because much that is consumed in the home
is produced outside the home.
But it is the homemakers, after all, to whom
we must look for health conservation. If the
head of the household not only sees that his own
premises in sanitary condition, but also de-
mands that whatever caters to the comfort or
sustenance of his household, is wholesome and
healthful long step will have been taken to-
wards the conservation of the public health.
Do you demand pure milk, wholesome bread,
fresh fruits and vegetables? Do you ever take
the trouble to investigate your meat market, or
to enquire as to the standard maintained by the
restaurant where you take your meals? Until
you do you not doing your part towards pro-
tecting either the health of your family or the
community. And when you do, you have taken
a long step forward, and one that will repay you
and yours many times over, and will add to your
value as citizen.

A STEP BACKWARD.

It seems almost Incredible in view of the in
terest in livestock in this section of the country,
that the work of tick eradication should be
checked by members of the state legislature, who
are either blind to the interests of their own
state, or else moved by something more than ap-
pears on the surface.
The statewide compulsory cattle dipping bill
had passed the house, but was put to sleep in the
senate, after being amended to be values
less, and after the senate had adopted all of the
committee amendments, including making
the levy of a two-mill tax optional instead of
mandatory upon the county commissioners, an
amendment was also offered to make the time
of dipping every thirty days instead of every
fourteen, and another amendment was proposed
to exempt all dairy cows, or other cattle under
fence.
When these amendments had been adopted, it
was moved that "since the teeth had been drawn
from the vicious bill, the senate electrocute the
remainder of the animal by indefinitely postpon-
ing the BILL" and this motion was carried by
vote of "a to g. The unfriendly amendments were
adopted by close rising votes and viva voce votes
which were of course not officially recorded.
Walton county has Systematically fought for
the tick eradication work in this state, and an
amendment offered by ellis, of that county to
appropriate $150,000 for maintaining the state
livestock sanitary board, precpitated debate
which revived arguments for and against tick
eradication.
So the situation stands in the legislative halls
in Tallahassee at this writing. Let us hope that
by the time the type of this gets cold, the gen.
tlemen of Florida may have changed their minds
and that this state may have taken it's rightful
place along with other progressive states
Escambia county has already voted for COM
pulsory cattle dipping, as have many other of the
west and south Florida counties, but until the
entire state is engaged seriously in tick eradica-
ton, the success of the livestock movement in
Florida viii be held back.
The progress which has been made during the
past few years in this state along the lines of
livestock development have formed one of the
most valuable chapters in the history of Florida
It has been demonstrated that the western sec
ton of the state offers an unusual opportunity
for cattle raising, and that, with proper federal
and state aid, this part of the state will inc
It's own. The equable climate and the fine nat
lral ranges make this section peculiarly fitted

becomes obligatory, Florida cannot take its right
ful place with other states, and this entire sec
tion of the country will be handicapped.
