Politicians Fear Liquor Vote.

Politicians in the House are thoroughly
fearful Of a vote either way on the dan
gerous resolution. No matter what per-
sonal predictions members have in the
liquor matter. 1t was estimated in the
corridors yesterday that at least 100
House members are likely to be defeated

members is the severest criticism direct
ed toward the judiciary committee.
Representative Garland Dupre. democrat.
of Louisiana. a member of the judiciary
committee. was open and frank in his
criticism OF the committee after it lad
voted Yesterday to report out the resolu-
tions without comment. He said the
country expected the committee to pre-
sent its views either favorably or unfa-
vorably. and that 1t was an evasive action
to dodge this report.
What Resolution Seeks.
Representative Hobson told some of the
members of the House yesterday that II
the House would Immediately vote in
favor Of his resolution. and IL the Senate
followed suit and put the proposed con-
stitutonal amendment up to the state leg
islatures. three-fourths of which must
ratify it before it Is part of the Con

Congress alone.
''AIl this resolution means is a chance
to let the various states act on it. A

not necessarily disclose any representa-
tives attitude toward the liquor prob

ADOPTS PROGRAM
FOR TWO BAHLESH|PS
Vote Shows Large Number of Demo
Gratis for No Increase or
Only One Ship.

For the first time in several years
the House adopted the two ba.tleship
program yesterday afternoon sfter
prolonged debate in which several al
tentative propositions to the admins
:ration's larger navy plan were CT
fered. The vote in each case showed
a large number of democrats favor-
ing either no increase in the navy or
an increase of only one ship. The
Buchanan resolution for one new ship
was defeated l4S to 81. Will. the
Witherspoon resolution for no new
ships at all went down by e. vote of
152 to Al. Representatives Mann and
Stafford on the republican side were
prominent among the one-shtp adv o.
Gates. while Representative Under
wood, democratic leader. voted with
the one-ship men on the maj ority side.
TIE debate for and against increases
in the navy produced no new ideas.
Representative Witherspoon reiterated
his twice told tales of graft IN the
building of batt1eships. and Representa-
tive Murdoch taunted the democrats
with the question:
What Is the matter with your At
torney General? II there Is so much
trust and SO much graft, why isn't he
doing something about it,"
Raises Padgett's Ire.
Representative Hardy of Texas vexed
Representative Padgett of Tennessee
by quoting seven-year-old speeches OF
Mr.. Padgett in which the Tennesseean
fought against the two battleship pro-
gram at the time. Chairman Padgett
stood 1t as long as he could and then
retorted by referring to Mr.. Hardy as
q lightning bug statesman, with his
lanterns astern. always looking back
ward"
When the House adjourned the remain
der of the building program was pend
Ing, with a motion by Representative
Maher of New York that at least one OF
the new battleships be constructed in
navy yard, and one by Representative
Moore Of Pennsylvania that both con-
tracts go to government plants. Repre-
sentatives of districts In which private
yards are located are making vigor-
Gus fight against these propositions.
Representative Jones of Virginia said the
battleship New York, built at the Brook
lyn navy yard. cost a million dollars
more than her sister ship, the Texas, the
product of a private builder.
Chairman Padgett of the naval COM
rittee said that on account Of conges-
ton of work 1t would mean delay OF
at least year to build ships in govern
ment yards. Consideration OF the bill
will be resumed tomorrow.

COMING FROM 375
FRIENDS OF MR.. CARLE
Movement Started in Police
Circle Expanded as Peo-
pie Heard Of 1t

presentation somewhat out of the
ordinary was made at little home on
John street this morning, when a gift,
typifying the esteem of several hundred
people for the late George *. Carle and
heartfelt good wishes for the widow
and children of the Barre policeman who
died on February 2s, last, from exposure
to zero temperature following service
at fire in the Vermont Fruit Store on
February II, was delivered to the Carle
family. The gift was S562.75.
The tearer of the gift was Deputy
Sheriff H. j. Slayton, who also had been
the collector of the entire amount dur
ing the past few weeks. The tender of
the sum and its acceptance occupied but
a short time, largely because of the fact
that Mr.. Slayton is not given much to
speech making and also because of the
fact that Mrs. Carle was so manifestly
overcome by the gift that she couldn't
find many words to express her appre-
citation. But the latter recovered her
composure sufficiently to tell Mr.. Slay-
ton of the deep appreciation she and her
children felt for the generous gift, not
only because of its intrinsic value, but
because it represented the friendship OF
so many people for her late husband.
At the same time that the money was
turned over TO Mrs. Garlic, the list OF
those who had thus expressed their feel
ings toward the family was also placed
in her hands. The list contains the
names of 375 people and in itself con-
stitutes marked tribute to the officer
who counted about everyone in Barre
as his friend All but Sl4 of the amount
was collected in Barre, the sum collected
outside the city coming chiefly from
those who had been associated with Off
Ger Carle in line with his work.
The proposed testimonial was started
by Deputy Slayton on a small scale and
was intended originally to include only
the members of the Barre police forcs
and others who had been intimately as
sociated with Mr.. Carle: but so many
people in all walks of life, on bearing
of the purpose, wished to tender their
appreciation along with those first seen
that it was decided TO broaden the scope
of the matter, and Mr.. Slayton gave up
practically his whole time for a week
in giving people chance to add their
names, and since then he has given time
as he was at liberty to do so. The long
list of names appended to the paper
was the result. 1t is one of the most
unusual testimonials ever made in Barre

FOREST FIRES.
Many in Vermont Are Caused by Care.
lessness.

During recent years much more atten-
tion is being paid by the several states
to the important matter of forest fire
prevention, and by all reports, Vermont
is not tagging in this most important
matter. This year. the owners of wood
lands and the railroads are much more
willing, than in former years, TO CO.
operate with the state in forest fire pre-
vention. The railroads, which run
through Vermont, have consented to al
low state inspector to inspect all spark
arresters on their locomotives. Many of
these have been inspected this spring,
and whenever defects were found the
railroad officials were very prompt in
having them repaired
The railroads are also assisting some
what by patrolling certain dangerous
sections along their rights of way. One
example of this is found in the north
east part of the state, where the Grand
Trunk railroad, Fitzgerald Land and
Lumber company, and the state have
co-operated in hiring patrolman for a
very dangerous section along the track
lust north of Island Pond. This man
will be kept patrolling during the dry
months of the year.
In the southern part OF the state, sew
eral of the land owners have co-operated
with the state, and a lookout station has
been erected on the top of Stratton
mountain. man viii be kept on this
mountain during the dry periods, and as
there is now a telephone line running
up to the top of the mountain, the
Waterman can call for help as soon as
a fire is discovered in any of the sur
rounding country.
Last years report of the state forest
fire warden shows IS fires occurred in the
month of May. This month had more
fires than any other month of the year.
Over Is per cent. of these fires were
caused through carelessness of smokers.
fshemen, and hunters. Fishermen and
hunters should be very careful in the use
of fire, and always be sure that camp
fires are totally extinguished before
leaving. This class of people should do
all in their power to prevent forest fires,
as once a large area is burned over, the
game is driven away, and during the
summer months many of the brooks dry
up, thus making the fishing poor.
