When President Wilson goes to Yer

There is grave doubt about the ac-
curacy of your ideas of Vermont ge-
ography. In coming from Washington,
as it is naturally expected the Presi-
dent viii come, he would not touch
White River Junction except by a
roundabout route, because the June
ton is quite a distance north of Wind
sor. However, it is reassuring that the
contemporary S ideas are correct inso-
far as the statement that he is com
ing to Vermont is concerned Barre

And that its knowledge of conditions
at White River Junction is accurate.

The Vermont public service commits
sion has finally adjusted in satisfactory
manner the much-mOoted overhead
pass controversy that has agitated
BrattIeboro for he pas wo years. 1t
Is well remembered that this question
took a great deal Of the time of the
Vermont general assembly of 1929,
perhaps more time than any other sim
gle proposition, outside of the taxation
question, which the legislature consid-
cred. The settlement of the matter
by the public service commission sim
ply illustrates the reasonableness of
the contention that that commission
should have plenary powers ON all
matters pertaining to railroad construc-
ton. 1t is a useless waste of time and
money upon the part of the large and
cumbersome body of legislators to at
tempt to settle a question that three
men are better able to decide, if the
men are of the type of which the
public service commission should be
composed.

MEET AGAIN ON MONDAY,
DECEMBER 20

There was not II very large
attendance at the meeting in the
righ school Monday afternoon,
called by the school board for the
purpose of securing an expression
Of the public opinion on the
question Of improving the school
conditions OF Mobr.dge. Senh-
ment among those present was
divided as to the best method to
adopt in providing relief from the
present Gro ded conditions OF the
schools.
Some held that il is advisable to
purchase new grounds, more
centrally located than The tracts
now owned by the district and to
erect new building of large enough
size to care for the city's school
needs for wears to come. Others
think that the present demands do
not warrant the erection of IL large
school house an! that it is better
TO build fair sized house on the
present grounds or add to the build
ing now in use.
The school board have called
another meeting for next Monday
when they hope to secure Il better
attendance OF the tax payers Ill the
district and be better able to aS er-
tain the sentiment IN regard TO the
question at issue. \ committee
was appointed at the last meeting
and their report Will be handed in
next Monday.
