WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?

| The people of Pensacola should demand some
relief from conditions existing within the city
limits, which menace not only to certain
lneighborhood but to this entire section.
Unless the commissioners take steps, and at
once to safeguard the health of the people now,
the day of reckoning is inevitable. We cannot
be healthful community, with Pensacola in the
condition which exists.
On North Coyle street, between LaRua and
Jackson, for more than month, according to the
people of that neighborhood, a sewer has been
burst, and fecal matter has been packed up in a
trench, which is not only liable to cause disease,
but which creates stencil. 1t is claimed by
residents of the neighborhood that complaint
after complaint has been made to the city COM
missioners, but that no relief has been afforded
them in the matter.
Whether such complaints had been made or
not, it is the duty of the commissioner of streets
to see that such conditions corrected.
Pensacola is at the gateway of new era, with
every prospect of achieving commercial suprem-
acy for this port. 1t is frequently stated that all
Pensacola needs is capital for its development
But capital goes where it is protected. It
goes where homes may be built and comfort and
happiness be secured.
We cannot get the support that we need for
our commercial ventures unless this city is
Cleaned up" morally and physically.
Our bank statements show that deposits are
twenty-five per cent in excess of those of 1917
49, and this is augury that Pensacola is grrwing
and is prosperous. But will it continue to grow,
will it remain prosperous, unless something is
done to make this city clean and safe place to
dwell?
1t is not clean and sanitary, and it will not be
clean until the men who have been placed in Of
flee by the people do something to make it clean.
There is nothing the matter with the present
form of city government but there is great deal
the matter when those things which are neces-
sary to safeguard the health of the people are
neglected
While the citizens of Pensacola sign petitions,
it would be well for them to go a step further
and write few letters to the city commission
ers Public opinion is powerful lever. It can
move even the slowest and heaviest bodies.
