WALTER HOER AND OLIVER
MARSTON MEET IN LIMA PERU

Two young Pensacouans, of whom
their friends here are very proud, are
Walter Hoer and Oliver Marston.
Mr.. Hoer, though born in Ken
lucky, spent his boyhood in Pensa-
cola and he attended the Pensacola
schools. He entered George Washing
ton university, later accepting a posi-
ton in the departmental service in
Washington. At the outbreak of the
world war, he enlisted in the army
and was sent overseas.
After returning 10 this country, Mr..
Hoer took the examinations required
to enter the consular service and, as
result, was ordered by the depart
ment to his present post in Lima,
where he is vice-consul. The recent
~ announced policy of President elect
Harding to appoint men who, by rea-
son of residence, knowledge of Span
ish and general aptitude, are best fit
ted to represent the United States as
ministers and ambassadors to the
South American countries makes one
hopeful that this young Pensacola cit
izen will continually ascend until he
reaches a high status in the diplomat
hc service, for which, if we turn back
a few pages of Pensacola's history,
we will find due precedent. The great
merchant-prince, John Innerarity, the

HONOLULU,

Mr.. L. NJ. Harvey is at present in
Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, en- route
to the Philippines, where he will as
sumo the superintendency of the con-
struction in the islands for the Amer

years Mr.. Harvey has been holding a
similar position at fort Barrancas,
but recently received the promotion
which will take him to the islands.
THE position is one of the most de-
sirable under the civil service COM

friends have been congratu1ating this
Escambia county boy upon his selec-
ton for the post.
Mr.. Harvey is the son of the late
Col. S. S. Harvey, for many years.
prior to his removal to Cuba, one Of
the most prominent citizens of the

name, the other being Col George
Wentworth, Capt. Putnam, Judge &C.
Cullough, and Mr.. B. r. Pitt, all now
deceased.
over twenty years ago, the family
moved to Cuba, where Col. Harvey
died in February, 1913.
Mr.. Harvey sailed from San Fran
cisco on the transport Thomas" Feb
ruary 8, his orders directing him to
Manila. A very pleasant feature of
Mr.. Tarvey's transfer will be the re-
newal of friendship with Lit. and Mrs.
Eugene Conway, who are now resi-
dents in the islands, where 1t Con-
way was transferred, last summer,
after a tour of duty, at Ft. Barran-
cas-.

Party Personnel

Proposals for reorganization OF

resolution unanimously passed by

Representative II. d. Flood, OF

Resolved, that it is the sense
of the Democratic National Con-
gressionaI Committee that there eX-
list at this time no party or public
necessity for a reorganization of
the National Democratic Committee
or the selection of any new chair
man thereof.
Further. that it would be re-
garded by the Congressional Com

to be taken to such an end, thus
creating a danger to that party
harmony so essential to the Demo
