Mails arriving In Washington from

This has come about largely as the re-

with the war. 1t Is evident from the
Australian newspapers.

Australians friendly to the United

ROBIN HOOD PLANT
AT SWANTON SOLD
Remington Arms and Ammunition
Company Takes : Business Boom
ing On War Orders.

ST. ALBANS, June 81. One Of
the biggest transfers of business prop
erty that has occurred in Vermont IN
recent years has just been consummat-
ed in the sale of the Robin Hood Am
munition Co. of Swanton to the Rem
ington Arms and Ammunition Co. of
New York. Charles E. Schoff, vice
president of the Robin Hood company,
has completed the sale and the trans
fer of the stock has been effected.
Within short time meeting will
be held by the new owners to effect
the new organization Mr. Schoff was
offered the presidency of the new
company but declined to serve in this
capacity. 1t is expected that exGov.
Smith, who was president Of the Robin
Hood company, and Mr.. Schoff viii be
identified with the new company III
the capacity of directors.
The expectation is that the business
at the Swanton plant will not only be
continued but will be increased under
the new ownership.
The Robin Hood Ammunition com
pany was the outgrowth of the old
Robin Hood Powder company, the
change having been effected in 1906
Ex-Gov. Smith was president of the
old company Mr.. Schoff first vice
president, and w B. Fonda second vic,
president. The directors were ex-Gov
ernor Smith, Sir William Van Horne
W. B. Fonda, Congressman Frank /
Greene, and Mr. Schoff. The majority
of the stock in the Robin Hood com
Ipany was held locally.
Some time ago the Robin Hood com
} pany entered into contract with
foreign nation for the production Q
l00,000,o00 rifle cartridges. In orde
to fill this contract the capacity 0
the plant was greatly increased i.
the addition of a large amount Of ms
chinery and the employment of cor
siderably added force.
