A Report Not Easily Credited.

Rigid examination OF the officials Of
the Mareoni company concerning their
part in the holding back of news of
the Titanic wreck by the wireless opera
tors on the Carpathia is one OF the OBJ
ylous duties OF the Senate investigating
committee. The charge is freely made
that the Carpathia 5 wireless operators
were instructed to answer no requests
for news during the four horrible days
of public suspense, while the Cunard
er was coming back to New York. in
order that the demand for news IN New
York might be made as ravenous as
possible and the money harvest for men
to tell, especially wireless operators,
might be reaped when thousands Of dol
lars would be paid for information. If
the Marconi officials on shore We're con
spirators in any such holdup, they merit
eNecration because of their inhuman-
ity. We are not able to credit this
charge and hope that its utter falsity
will be demonstrated by the Senate com
mittee.-Springfield Republican.

Uplift of Vermont.

The lnter-Church federation OF Yer.
mont has passed resolutions committing
that organization 90 an effort TO i'm
prove conditions In rural Vermont. II
proposes 10 aid not only in moral i'm
provement but in Industrial develop
iHcut in order TO give Vermont boys aai
opportunity to do something in Yer
rlont. This is commendable move and
one that may prove Of real value to
the state. We hope, however that this
organization viii remember that the se-
riolIs need in Vermont development is
larger and more vital units Of activity.
Sometime ago we urged the necessity of
larger units in church work to be
brought about by the consolidation of
the denominations. We need the same
thing in a successful uplift movement
in the state. The board of trade or
business mems association should join
its forces with this organiza tion Of
the church forces and they both should
join with any live woman's yorganiza-
tIon ike village improvement society
and all work together for the uplift
of their town. In almost every town
there are enough progressive people TO
make it develop if they can only be
brought together and united but il
they fail to unite they lack the strength
to become forceful, This action by the
church organization shows another eIe-
ment of strength and progress ready
to become a part Of the uplifting in
fuence of Vermont towns and we hope
ii means real development for the state.

Country Roads in Poor Shape.

Farmers and stage drivers with almost
everyone else whose business calls them
outside the city assert that the roads
in the outlying districts are in the
worst condition of the spring at the
present time. Frost is just beginning
to issue from the ground in places. and
il is in these spots that travellers are
put to the greatest inconvenience. On
the East Barre road and up over Wash
ington heights, there are many mud
holes, according to report, and in more
than one instance, the traveller has been
obliged to take up the long trail while
his horses laboriously essayed to drag
four wheels axle-deep out of the slough.
Except for one or two stretches, the
road between Barre and Montpelier is
opened for motorists and several have
made the trick back and forth between
the Twin cities One automobilist has
penetrated as far as East Brookfeld,
but cases of this kind are rare and the
majority of machine owners are glad
to leave their cars in Williamstown when
going in that direction.
