included the entire state to within
forty-five or fifty miles of the Georgia
line. We kept pleading for boundaries
but didn't get them, but South Florida
was dropped and Peninsular Florida
was substituted.
Now what is Peninsular Florida7
Those who talk about It ought to tell,
but they will not. so we have to go to
work again. The Tampa Tribune
says:
ut has been repeatedly charged
without q successful dispr0vaf yet, that
peninsuIar Florida has about so per
cent of the population Of the state, and
pays approximately 80 per cent of the
taxes of the state. At a recent meeting
in this city at which officials of state
and county highway boards were pres
ent, the additional statement was
made, from the records, that peninsu-
lar Florida, since the organization of
the state highway commission, has
contributed in excess of 20 per cent Of
the money and convict labor the state
road department has had to expend.
and has received in return for its road
and bridge uses, only about per cent.
of contribution"
We had an idea that the peninsula
of Florida was south OF Ocala, for the
state IS narrower a little south Of
Oeala than anywhere else. We thought
the isthnus was the narrowest part
and the peninsula was south of the
isthmus. But as our friends would not
tell US what was Peninsular Florida
we had to go to work at the west end
Of the state and see how far east we
would have to come so as to include
20 per cent Of the people. of the state.
We soon saw that Duvai county was
in Peninsular Florida and was eligible
as site for the capital, but when we
kept on until we found the necessary
fourth we realized the fact that the
capital removal question had evapor-
ated. For our friends DO not care
where the capital Is that it Is In PENN
sular Florida and we find that the cap
ital already is in Peninsular Florida
and everybody is happy.
Since no one would tell US what ter
ritory was embraced in Peninsular
Florida, but were told that 1t contained
all the people Of the state but one
fifth, we had to go to the census for
the information. According to the CEN
sus. Florida has 97s,o44 people and
$4,000 would be one fifth of that num-
Der. So we began with Escambia to
see how far we would have to go to get
that number. Here is the result:

The cogent reason alleged for the

own NAVAL WORK
Local Machinists' Union
Head Says Yards Should
Be Utilized.

AS measure of economy and effi-
cheney the government was urged to-
day to discontinue the practice OF
letting out naval contract work to
outside firms and to confine it's activi-
ties on this basis to the Washington
navy yard and other navy yards
throughout the country, where the
shortage of work is threatening the
welfare of hundreds of workers. in
a statement issued today by President
Robert 4. Janson of Local No. IA OF
the International Association of Ma
chinists.
The local is made up largely of en-
sployes of the Washington navy yard.
Cite Concession by Workers.
Last July" Mr.. Janson pointed
out, the men employed in this yard
as well as the other yards, agreed
to a reduction in working time to
five days a week instead OF forty
four hours. thereby giving to the
Navy Department sufficient allot-
ployed until the first Of the next
fiscal year. The plea at that time was
that there was plenty of work. but
shortage of funds.
"The men feel that this was a
proper course to pursue. and when
the recent and unwelcomed wage
award was handed down on Septem-
Der 16. 1921. it was therein stated
that this arrangement should not be
prolonged unnecessarily. If the de-
partment holds to its policy of letting
work out on contract. whether large
or small orders-that ,can well be
taken care of at the yard and there
by causes the plant to be partially
idle-then the agreement with the
men is an unnecessary hardship"
Employees Not Miiitarists.
Mr.. Jansun stated that the work ers
of the navy yard were in no sense
militarists. but on the contrary
favored all possible steps whicn
could be taken for the reduction of
ornaments. He did. however. an
nounce in the interest of the union
that every bit of work distributed to
private firms by contract was taken
away from the. governments own

which was always recogf:HAt as the
