BOARD
AWARDS STAND
Boards Second Report Has Been
Submitted to Sec'y. Daniels;
Not Yet Fully Examined.

Washington, June 26.-Except for the
addition OF new names, practically no
change has been made by the Knight
board in the original list OF recon-
mendatiOns for award of war service
decorations, members of the board said
today The board was reconvened by
Secretary Daniels more than six months
ago to reconsider its recommendations
after the medals award controversy
between Rear Admiral Sims and the
naval secretary. which resulted in a
senate investigation.
The boards second report was sub
mitted to Mr.. Daniels just before he
left for San Francisco to attend the
democratic convention and he has moi
yet thoroughly examined it. When he
reconyened the board the secretary
said he would transmit the second re-
port to the president without amend
ment
Members OF the board said t,sat in
the new list they had followed their
original recommendations with regard
TO officers whose ships were struck by
torpeaoess OF mines. each ease hayine
been decided on its merits. or the ten
officers in this group, only SIX, four.
OF whom saved their ships, were recon-
mended for the distinguished service
medal on the original list. Secretary
Daniels changed these awards so as to
give each officer whose ship vas so
struck distinguished service medal
Much of the medals controversy CEN
tered around this action by the secre-
tary
Although Mr. Daniels added approx
mately thirty names for award Of the
service medal and more
than 100 for the navy cross, many Of
these, it was explained today by MEM.
bers of the board, We're officers and
enlisted men who engaged in postwar
mine sweeping operations and whose
claim for honors did not come before
the board when the first list was pre-
pared. Practically all OF these have
been added to the second list. it was
said, as have others whose records
were available for the first time.

MAKES
WANTS KNOWN
Convention Fight for Dry Plank
Formally Launched By Com
mOner In an Address.
VETS ARE ALSO ACTIVE
Nebraskan, In Address, Deplored
Injection of League Into Mire
of Partisan Politics.

San Francisco, June 26.-Wets and
drys continued their re-convention
battle today, but left the outcome still
in doubt.
William Jennings Bryan formally
opened his fight for a prohibit, n
platform plank in an address at a
luncheon after his election by the
Nebraska delegation to the resolutions
committee. Bryan also said he want
ed a labor plank that would put en-
ploye and employer on exactly the
same footing and protect the public,
declaring he. favored compulsory ar
bitration. He also urged plank de-
nouncing profiteers, and favored Jail
terms for them.
Bryan deplored the injection of the
league and treaty into partisan poll
tics. He said he. did not want them
in partisan politics. Its crime to
drag them in the mire of partisan poll
itics, he said.
On the labor plank Bryan said he
wanted something similar to the pro-
visions in treaties he made with va
rious nations whereby time provided
for investigation before any action
was taken.
While Bryan was announcing there
will be no compromise on prohibition,
the vets were working with state del
egations and were encouraged by re-
ports from southern delegations that
the hopes of prohibitionists for the
solid South for prohibition declara-
tion were unfounded. They declared
the unit rule could not be invoked on
all southern delegations and many
Southerners would vote against pro-
hibitionists.

CITY POLITICS
LOOMING AGAIN
Though Annual Election for a
Commissioner Is Nearly Year
Off Candidates Are Active.
VILLAR TO BE IN RACE
Incumbent F. r. Pou Is Expected
to Run Again; Other Proba-
bilitieS Are Mentioned.

That the fires under the municipal
political pot are ever kept burning in
Pensacola, Notwithstanding only the
three commissioners-one a year-are
elective by the people and are respon-
sible TO the people for the stewardship
of the several city departments, is
a fact well known among all who
keep in touch with city affairs.
AS usually happens just at the time
when there was apparent probability
of brief cessation of activity that
would involve the interest of outsid-
ers, there was a visible rekindling yes
terday when Charley Villar after
seeking a large number of his friends
announced that he would be a can
didate next spring for a position on
the commission.
The announcement by Mr.. villar was
not unexpected, for as is kell known
he was kept out of the running in
1919 and since only for reason of per-
sonal affairs. Besides Mr.. Villar. it
is generally understood that incum-
bent F. r. Pou will be a candidate
to succeed himself for another three
year term. There is even now at this
early date talk of other candidates.
The records of both men are well
known. they having seen several
years of service with the city. How
ever, Mr.. Villar had not been actively
connected with city government since
the change from alderman1c TO com
form. He is conceded to be
a hard worker and his friends main
tain that there is every reason for a
feeling of absolute confidence is his
ability and integrity to serve the city
well and faithfully.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
FOR OCTOBTR 81, 1920
Scripture, Math. 7:15-27.

This whole chapter is a part OF a
sermon which Jesus preached when
he lived here in the flesh and here,
like he did first and last, he talked
to people. The key verse .or text is
the 21st-"He that doeth the will of
my Father'-and in John 6:29 he told
them what that will is, ito believe on
or receive his son he had sent. The
temperance committee has taken this
section for our lesson today. The KEY
verse is 10. The corrupt tree is 10

II is refreshing to know that our God
never made corrupt tree-the key
word is all all things that
were created were created by Him
for His Son and all was good SO He
didn't make this corrupt tree the
liquor tree.

will kill the saloon some time My
answer was: "You leave it to him and
