FRENCH WILL ASSIST
u. S. GRAVE VISITORS
qBy United 'Press) q,

Paris, (By Mail.)-Arrangements
are being rapidly perfecteds IN Paris
for assisting Americans, who will
come to France this year to3visit the
graves Of their soldier dead In the
battlefield cemeteries. For six months
the American Red Cross has been
conducting a central information bu-
reau here where are handled all in
quiries from war grave visitors, and
these are assisted in arranging their
itineraries to the cemeteries in the
devastated region.
The success of the information bu-
reau has been such that the French
government proposes to- supplement
it by the establishment of a central
office which will provide hotel rooms
and railway tickets. The central
office will have branch in every
railroad station, and English speak
ing clerks will be on duty to inform
strangers arriving in the city as to
where they can find the rooms and
accommodations they require.
=. Several schemes are on foot in
Paris for the erection Of large new
hotels, and at least one of these will
be operated on American plans, with
an American staff. A British syndi-
cate is also arranging to erect an all
British hotel of 1900 rooms, the
largest hotel in France.

JERSEY CLOTH FOR BL0USES
o4ip-ovsr With PepIum Said to Still
Hold Prominent Place; Silks /.
:. Desirable. y

Jersey cloth in silk, in one Of the
weAves that go by various names, is
used increasingly for blouses. In
spite Of everything that has been pre-
dicted, the slip-over blouse, with q
Pepium, is still the -smartest vogue.
To be sure, some of the very smart
new blouses reach only to the waist
line, but the peplum is the rule. And
It is in these blouses that jersey in
1 SILK weaVes is especially desirable.
For 1T has body enough and at the
same time suppleness enough to hang
well around the hips. It is often elab-
srately embroidered, sometimes heav-
& y braided in soutache, sometimes
worked in machine stitchery with COLI
soged wool in way that adds distinc-
.fsens to many of the new blouses. J.,.

For years and years the Breeze has
been contending that Florida needed
a revision of its assessment laws to
make them somewhat in keeping with
the progress of the state Four years
ago a law that would at least have
been big improvement on the pre-
sent one, passed the legislative house
and was defeated in the Senate.
Last year an even better one passed
both houses and was vetoed by the
governor. The point is though
that every now and then we run
across an argument in favor of such
Ia revision that is hard to gainsay.
For instance a government agent en-
gagged in looking into the matter of
inheritance taxes found a piece of
property in the Mrs. Potter Palmer
estate in Manatee county which is as
Sessed on the tax books for $3.50. 1t
is included in the inventory of the
estate at 100000. In Palm Beach
county an orange grove valued for
taxation at 800 was taken by the
on the estate inventory
at $65, 900. That is even worse than
one piece of property right here in
DeFuniak assessed at $3.50 which is /
rented for $3.50 a year. We do need |
a revision of the assessment laws

TO MAKE APOLOGY
Mcmahon VIII Make Retraction of
Statements About Florida.

Congressman Drane has been off
cially informed by Milton Whitney
chief of the bureau of soils of the
Federal department of agriculture
that public apology through thy
press would be made by John r,
Mcmahon, a writer in the Country
Gentleman, who recently did great
injury to the state of Florida by mis-
representing land conditions. These
articles, Mr.. Whitney said, misrepre-
sente completely the attitude of the
bureau OF soils. 1t is true that Nc
Mahon got some information from
the bureau. but he did not present it
as it should have been presented.
The map which Mcmahon used was
an old one printed years ago, and was
given him merely as an aid and not
for publication. A. A. Couh, of the
Florida Development Board, suggest
ed that the editors of the Country
Gentleman be required to repair Nc
Mahon's damage, and this the latter
will now attempt to do, submitting
his futher articles to the department
of agriculture before being publish
ed. In conclusion, Mr.. Whitney
said: Mcmahon will call on us as
soon as he completes his assignem0lt,
and we shall undertake to see to it
that his future articles tell the truth.
His past articles certainly have not
done So"

Labor From Europe

The reported intention of the i'm
migration committee of the lower
house to recommend to Congress leg
islatiOn to remove some of the pres
esent restrictions on immigration
arouses renewed interest in the i'm
migrant problem. A good deal has
been said about prohibition drawing
foreign laborers from the country
and favorable exchange rates Turing
them back to Europe with their saw
iings, now multiplied, to profit by
postwar conditions, but this move
ment, such as it is, has not provided
an automatic solution of the problem.
The tide is moving toward this coun-
try again.
The United States is no. paying
the penalty oor adhering 20 an undis-
eliminating immigration pC1"y for
more than 80 years. 1t has on it's
hands mass OF urNSSimilated for
eigners who are a menace to them
selves and tc the country. Shall it
gorge itself with more millions of un-
dcsirables? We believe that no
American thinks the country should
revert to the pre-war STANDARD of ad-
mission.
The potential citizen, however,
with demonstrated qualities of health |
and industry should not be barred.
Instead of being dumped into New
York to scramble for a bare living
among others of his kind in the for
eign colonies of that Babylon, he
should have his choice of New York
)r one of dozen other ports. If he
S farmer by calling he should not
De allowed to dissipate his health and
strength in New York, but should be K

ion and careful distribution in this I
ountTy, the number of immigrants t
an be reduced to the safety limit, i
nd the reputation of the country as
refuge and an opportunity can be
nIanced for the good Of all concern .
