The only difficulty which presented

George r. Mason, of the Amer
ican Motors Exports Co. Tells
What Pensacola Needs.

What Pensacola lacks more than any
thing else is municipal docks ana railroad
facilities said George r. Mason or Jack
sonville. yesterday afternoon. This is a
wonderful city, with delightful climate
and many opportunities, and when my
associates and I were making investiga-
tions into the best location for the Amer
ican Motors Export Company, manufac-
turers of the Innes automobile, we came
to Pensacola to look over the ground,
before we went to Jacksonville, where
we are now located.
I'VE chose Jacksonville because of its
splendid docks and it's excellent railroad
facilities. Pensacola is naturally one of
the finest cities in the world and the
spirit here seems to be wonderful, in
spite of the fact that the people have
not yet taken entire advantage of the
opportunities that are theirs in the splen-
dad bay and proximity to Alabama and
Tennessee, with their coal and steel
products.
HAD Pensacola had the facilities, the
company with which / am connected
might have located here, for there are
many things about your city which at
tracted US, but we chose Jacksonville
because of the opportunities afforded in
it's shipping facilities, and the eight rail-

When Mr.. Mason was told that citizens
of Pensacola were making hard fight
at this time for municipal docks. he said:
"That is one Of the best possible steps
commercially that this city could take.
There is nothing that is more needed
here, than such docks, and heartily hope
that Pensacola win soon be dock build

Mr.. Mason arrived in Pensacola yester-
day, and when seen at the San Carlos
talked very interestingly of the company
which he represents. The American
Motors Export Company, is a Florida
organization, backed by Florida men and
money.
This company has already organized
with an authorized capital stock Of s5.-
900, 600, incorporated under the laws Of
Florida

with the company since its founding, and
was one of the organizers of the COM
pany. now has entire charge of the sales
end Of the business. In speaking Of the
business which is building rapidly to large
he said last night:
This company is unique in that it is
a Florida plant, backed by Florida men
and with Florida capital invested TO more
than two million dollars, and this COM
pany owes not one cent. Florida has
