According to an announcement made
yesterday by H. b. McAllister. secre-

pIished, for the welfare of the men still

the people of Pensacola.

management of Steve Allen and which
has given excellent service at a very
small cost TO all service men. will be
continued during the month Of Octob-
err, and every effort is going TO be
made to have this service continued
indefinitely.

PUBLIC DISCUSSION
WHY NOT DISCHARGES?

The News scimitar:

Editor The News Scimitar:
We men In camp wish to express ~
sentiments want the public to know
the exact conditions and the action
taken by the war department in de-
mobilizlng Of men at Park field.
1t has remained q mystery why we
are being held since the signing of the
armistice, and we express our opinion
that It is for no purpose that will show
benefits to any of US. AS soldiers, when
needed, this organization had no COM
plants; every man was ready and will
ing to give to his country the best that
was in. him, and II needed again we
men will be satisfied to do our part.
But now, under the present conditions
OF this country, it Is a l~istless 6Ccupa-
ton, To discharge men Immediately
would be far better and more beneficial
to the men than to hold them until
spring, as that time is the beginning of
the slack season in almost every line
of industry. The men then would be
thrown on the pubiic's hands, whereas
now there are many opportunities. Bust
ness, as you know, was never better
than at the present, and experienced
men are needed.
The air service is composed mostly
of this type of men, men who, when
called to the colors gave up positions
that no human being could fill prop
erly unless experienced and skilled by
years of study, as We have been. We
would like to have these facts made
Is a square deal in getting back to the
different civil lines of business, where
we are badly needed. 1t would be an
imposition to keep us away from our
positions in civil life Just to tralp some
men for jobs with the mail Service.
Recently an order came from the war
department authorizing all divisional
commanders to discharge men who APP
piled for their discharges, accompanying
their applications with affldavits signed
by responsible and DISTINGUISHED men,
giving as grounds for the applications
for discharges any or all the following:
Sickness, dependency or essential busi-
ness.
Some of US, who have wives and
others at home dependent on u.s., some
who are needed In industry, sent in our
applications for discharges as the gov
eminent suggested. 1t seems they have
been playing for time IN acting o. the
and what applications they have acted
on have been d~isapproved as. fast as
they were received, with absolutely no
reason given, Why is 1t that these
men are allowed to take it upon them
selves to diseredit the sworn state,
life their word and reputation is be-
yond question? We would like to see
In your paper an editorial on condi-
tons as they really are. Any of these
statements can readily be investigated
and found to be true. II you wish you
may publish this letter. Really, we
would appreciate it very much If you
would lay the facts before the public
as they are. For obvious reasons 1t
would be folly for us to sign our names
to this communication. We commend
it to your attention.

DOROTHY DIX'S TALK
: THE PERSONAL EQUATION.
BY DOROTHY DIX,
The Worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer

man II maintaining the kind of a shack
that sends husbands to the saloon and
children to the street,
We have seen half a dozen men go
bankrupt at the little grocery around
the corner. Then another man came
and out OF that same little grocery
made a fortune,
Every day Of the week there are
thousands of city boys leaving their
homes to go to strange places TO seek
their fortunes because they believe
there Is no opportunity for them in
New York or Boston or Chicago or
wherever they live. and at the same
moment there are thousands Of coun-
try boys coming into these same cities
to find their fortunes, and In each OF
these cases the boy succeeds or fails
according to what Is in him and with
out reference to the place.
! frequently visit two families, both
o. which are blessed with health, beau
tfful children, husbands and wives who
are good, kind people, and with an
abundance of this worlds goods to
supply every comfort and luxury,
One OF these homes is Ideally happy,
a place Of peace, rest, love and ten
derness, The other Is a place OF dis
cord, quarrels, strife, bitterness, tears,
discomfort and misery. Yet both of
these couples have the Same materials
for happiness to work with.
1t all comes back to the personal
equation, 1t IL we ourselves who de-
termine II fate, We reap as we have
sown. We take out Of life what we put

No other thought In the world Ia so

instead Of making us the helpless pris-
oners Of misfortune, No need, for any
girl or boy TO lament that they have
no chance of success. Their chance
lies right within themselves. They can
find their fortune Just as surely within
their own block, or on their own farm,
as they Soould find it at The ends Of
the earth,

The conviction of Victor Berger and some of his associates
should serve as . warning to those who have presumed upon
the good nature of Uncle Sam in advancing their disloyal and
un-American theories OF government, The dangerous citizen is
not the one who crihcizes the individual official or finds fault
with the system, but the man who would betray his country
under the pretext OF enjoying the freedom of speech or some
other liberty guaranteed by the federal constitution. This is one
of the reasons that constructive criticism and helpful exposures
of faulty policies is SO difficult The man with a sinister pur-
pose assumes to have the same object in view as the man with
nothing beyond the correction of evil, and frequently is enabled
to make some Roadway in his designs. For this reason legiti-
mate criticism should be sa~feguarded with helpful suggestion,
then there is less likelihood Of its being confused with sinister
opposition.
