ARITHMETICAL
PROGRESSION

Every additional family locating in
Pensacola is quick asset to the COM
munity.
For sake of argument, let us say,
this family spends $1,000 per year for
. the necessaries of life and through
keeping up a house, that expenditure
adds four cents to the per capita
wealth of the cornmunity.
Locate on this basis, 100 families
in Pensacola and you have added 81 90
to the per capital wealth of the COM
munity.
Locate 1000 families in Pensacola
and you have added $40 to the per
capita wealth of the community, or
to put it in another way, you will
have added s1,200,00O to the COM
merce and trade of the community.
The Pensacola Chamber of Com,
merce has been instrumental in the
past in doing just what has been
cited: locating families IN Pensacola.
The records prove it,
This IVES accomplished, despite
handicaps in the way of inadequate
finances to carry on the chamber
work properly and in big way.
Now a new era has dawned.
Pensacola is coming into it's own.
The Chamber of Commerce is going
to enlarge it's activities.
It's recently formed industrial COM
mission is after more families for
Pensacola. How?
BY locating some of the seventeen
lines Of industry not now represented
here. in our midst.
New industries mean more families,
more families mean more per capita
wealth, more per capital wealth means
prosperity.
Getting behind this movement Oh
the Chamber of Commerce is the citi-
zens' duty. Because you share In the
increased per capita wealth OF the
community makes it your duty 10
keep the vehicles which bring 1t
about in motion.
New industries can be brought to
Pensacola. Industries which anaiyza-
ton of conditions can be made to re-
turn goodly profit to the men who
bring them to us.
Bringing the industry here; helping
to make it a success, means dollars
piled on dollars for the community
Let everybc-S share in the good
work. Let everybody honestly say,

There is a way to do it.

NEW YORK, May 3o.-Tens OF
thousands of veterans of the Civil,
Spanish and World Wars marched to-
day in parades throughout greater
New York in honor of the dead they
had left behind them on the crimsoned
soil of battlefields and under the
white -flecked waters of the sea.
Joining hands with them beneath the
Stars and Stripes We're allied patriots
who during the recent conflict went to
the front in the khaki of Canada, the
kits of Scotland and the horizon blue
of France.
The nurses who cared for the
wounded and welfare workers who lent
aid and comfort to weary and hungry
fighters also donned their uniforms
and trod along behind the countless
bands which played martial music all
the day. Elsewhere in the city flags
flew at half mast. From each ef-the,

Memorial day salutes of 81 guns
doomed forth at noon. Out in the
Hudson river, the flagship of, seventy
destroyers joined in the chorus with
the bark of it's ne-pounder which
echoed off the Palisades and the great
stone home of Riverside drive by which
thousands marched in the greatest of
the many parades.
Hundreds of gray-haired warriors
who defended the union in '61 headed
this pageant, which for three hours
passed beneath the elms and naples
that shelter the fashionable drive.
The guard of honor for Major Gen
eral Lee Billiard. who reviewed the
parade. comprised the veteran corps of
artillery and the old guard.
Fluttering in the various parades
were old war flags and with each
group of veterans came a band, re-
calling, the marching songs of the, va
rious wars.
In all the parades special honor was
paid the gold star mothers.
One of these groups said those whose
sons had died at 'sea-cast flowers up
on the waters of the Hudson, while
warcraft fired memorial salute.
The dead of three centuries who
sleep in historic Trinity church yard
were not forgotten. Over the graves
of those who died in the revolutionary
war-the first Of the many who have
made the supreme sacrifice for Amer
ica-were placed the thirteen starred
Betsy Ross flags.

Grams of foreign wars and others
planned memorial trees in each of the
boroughs. Many churches observed
the holiday with special services.
Ten thousand persons visited the
resting place Of Theodore Roosevelt
at oyster Bay and as many more filed
in and out of Grants tomb. Harbor
craft were crowded with thousands
who steamed down the bay to view
the immense wreath placed about the
shoulders of the Goddess of liberty.

There were seventy seven groups OF

Ways and Means to This End

NEW YORK, May 30--Ways and means
|rf rehabiitating the cotton industry and
|putting it on q pre-war basis, were dis
|russed today at the opening of a nax
|lional consultation of American cotton
growers, manufacturers and affiliated in
Ferests.
Leading cotton growers and govern
mental officials warned that the coun-
Ery faced the shortest cotton crop in at
least 25 years and that unless immediate
Eteps were taken to create a market and
restore the staple to profitable price,
J greater shortage would result in the
hext few years.
Figures presented by the various speak
Ers showed that the reduction in cotton
Fcreage this year ranged from 80 to So
|er cent, due to the acreage reduction
|ampaign for the national cotton associa-
lion, the ravages of the boil weevil and
Enfavorable weather conditions.
The government recognized that the
|ndustry faces critical situation, Presi-
|ent Harding declared in a telephone
|nessage to the conference, and he as
|Ted the cotton growers that the ad-
(nmistration desired in every possible
pay 10 cooperate with sthose seeking to
kmprove conditions.
AbOltuou OF cotton exchanges II they
annot be regulated adequately by law,
|yas advocated by United States Senator
Thomas Heflin OF Alabama. Consid-
| |ration is being given a law concerning
otton futures, he asserted, but he ex-
ressed doubt as to the possibility of
framing n measure that the exchanges
|ould not find way to evade.
III the cotton exchanges cannot be

business as the governor may call tC

Whereas, the present session of the

Whereas, it now appears the time

DRIFT BACK TO FARMS. IL

In large part, the housing difficulty
arose from the abnormal drift Of rural
residents to the cities to engage ii war
production. Farm hands, farmers sons
and farmers daughters left the farm
home for, city life. That left vacant
rooms in rural homes and created an
excessive demand for shelter in the
congested centers. 1t is now an
nounced from various sources that
there is a very noticeable drift back
to the farms, says Albany Journal. A
small drift Of this kind into; every
rural community will mean a large
emigration from almost every city !;
perhaps enough to take away the sur
plus and make the housing problem a
comparatively easy one to solve. High
city rents will do much to hasten the
back-to- the farm movement. And the
growing need of employment will
bring down the cost of the new con-
struction which is necessary in any
case.
