An army of tourists, including
sight-seers and sportsmen, are
booking passage for Alaska, thus
emulating President Harding who
will head a party that is to study

tourist trave, to Alaska increase

UNCLE SAM COULD LEARN
A LESSON FROM FLORIDA
Jacksonville Metropolis

(JackSonvllle Metropolis.)
Naturally, since this state caters to the people
from many states, constituting trade that is as
cosmopolitan as the Union, Florida receives much
criticism each season. This is to be expected
States like individuals that are not subjected to
criticism, as rule, accomplish nothing And in
the whole nation there is no more wide-awake
state than Florida.
Some of this criticism is justified much of it is
not; and Florida appreciates it when intelligent
folks speak in her behalf Writing in the current
issue of the Saturday Evening Post Kenneth
Roberts, of the most forcible of Americas
younger generation of writer's expresses the opin-
ion the nation could learn a lesson on the sub
ject of immigration if it would study the meth
DDS used in Florida for keeping the dead-beats
out. America would get very rapid and salts
factory action on her immigration problem if her
citizens could be brought into personal contact
with its rottenness." Mr.. Roberts says:
What happened was ths-and the same thing
to far greater degree and with far more evil
and widespread results is happening to the Unit
ed States and will keep on happening until i'm
migration is rigidly restricted: Word began to
so forth in the northern states that free camping
grounds to be had in Florida towns and
cities; that if bought secondhand fivver
at the beginning of the winter and beat his way
TO these camps he could live more cheaply than
he could live in the north could afford to accept
lower pay for his services than could the Florida
natives, and could go back north in the spring
with money in his pocket and sell his fivver for
what he paid for it. These are almost exactly
the reasons that brought million imm-
grants year to America from Eastern and
Southern Europe before the war.
Florida has made it plain that she wants no
more of these seasonal labCrers who can't make a
satisfactory living in their own communities
Most of them are so hardboiled that a diamond
pointed drill is needed to penetrate their Shells
and most of them have much regard for neat
ness, cleanliness and the rights of others as q
Berkshire hog has for a potato peel. Tn-can
towns have begun to charge various prices for
the privilege of staying in them-prices ranging
from twenty-five cents a night to seventy-fiye
cents a night or from four dollars to ten dollars
a month. Even the free towns won't admit resi-
dents who wish to go to work each day They've
got TIC be tourists devote themselves to taking
the air AS result the seasonal laborers who
went Florida for the 1922 season were TAX
ing themselves homeward early in 1922 and hurl-
ing many deep, cultural, roughneck curse at
the state of Florida as they went"
Indeed, the people of Florida know Mr.. Roberts
speaks the truth.

can the nations balance their budget" The Ger
man minister added that the worlds trade must
be doubled before present-day conditions can be
bettered but said this could not be done while the
nations were jumping at each others throats. ="
The British commissioner has presented the 6nan-
cial commissions report which he has termed as
important as the Justinian code The stabilizing
of the purchasing powers of gold is one of the OBJ
jects sought and in this work the corporation of
the United States is strongly desired. To bring
this about it is proposed to hold sort of interna-
tional convention of bankers, representative of all
the leading countries, whose duty it shall be to de-
eide on some kind of credit policy and to suggest
proper currency reforms. These are essential mat
tiers that must have consideration before any real
progress can be made in bringing about improved
world conditions

WORKING OUT THE PROBLEMS

Despite the contradictory reports that come from
The Genoa conference. many of them of nature
distinctly anti-anyihing and everything. it is evil
dent that some real progress is being made toward
reaching the desired goal Of worldwide under
standing with world peace as the ultimate object
to be attained. Of course it was to be expected
that serious problems would arise requiring care
ful handling The fact must not be overlooked
that France and Belgium are still carrying raw
and bleeding wounds inflicted by the Germans, the
pain from which has net yet ceased. Naturally
those countries are representative when it comes to
regarding future relations with their former I'M
scrupulous enemy. They have a right to be. But
with the bitterness still there it has also been pos
sbe to set aside to a great degree national feelings
of resentment and get down to fundamentals SO
necessary in solving the great problems now ahead
Always standing firmly on principle, it has been
found possible to adopt more conciliatory policy
in dealing with both Germany and Russia. the
two nations giving the world the most trouble.
The secret pact reached by those two nations has
been anything but popular at Genoa but even this
unwaranled action may be forgiven in desire
to make start toward getting things right in the
world. In the discussion of economic policies in
cident to proposal for universal disarmament
the Russian Soviet minister Chitchcrin uttered
truth when he said that 'only by policy Of peace

MAKING KNOWN FLORIDA
PRODUCTS

One of the side-ights on the recent Triennial
Encampment of the Knights Templar of the y nit
ed States at New Orleans is of some special in
terest to Florida over and above the representative
attendance from this State. This refers to the
worthwhile advertising given Florida by The dele
CATION which was made up of citizens of practical
ly every section of the State from Pensacola to
Key West The headquarters room of the Grand
Commandery of Florida in the Hotel Grunewald
was made exceedingly attractive by the liberal use
of cocoanut fronds shipped from West Palm
Beach. With the fronds were included several
hundred cocoanuts in their husks, these latter be-
ing in great demand for souvenirs. In keeping open
house the committee in charge served two othei
Florida products, the famous Southland grapefruit
candy and the equally popular Southland grape
fruit juice Two thousand packages of the candy
went to people from all over the United States
who had never tasted anything of the kind before
and who were loud in praise of the CONNECTION.
The Southland grapefruit juice was the basis for
a punch that was voted by the hundreds of callers
at the Florida rccm to be unquesdonaby the best
punch served at any headquarters during the
tire period of the conclave. The cordial reception
given Florida products convinced the Knights
Tempar from Florida that when the next national
conclave is held three years from now in Seattle,
similar provision will have to be made in the mat
ter of souvenirs and entertainment Each Stale
brought to New Orleans certain products peculiar
to that State. For instance, New Hampshire and
Vermont served cakes CT delicious maple sugar.
Washington had apples by the carload, California
had her oranges and illinois and Indiana served
candy Alabama gave an exquisite piece of pot
terry as a memenio and SO it went all down the list
of States But Flordas contributions stood out as
unique ard attractive, SO much so that it was
matter Ct special comment. What was achieved
in New Orleans in 922 can be ampli6ed many
fold in 1925 in Seattle
