In Promulgating a Retalia-
tory Policy Against
Germany
THO FOREIGN OFFICE
HINTED AT SUCH MOVE
Great Britain Hopes to Have
Approval of Neutral
Countries

London, Feb. 20, l2:l2 p. m.--The third
day of the German submarine blockade
was ushered in without Great Britain's
retaliatory policy, declaring all food des-
tined for Germany as absolute contra
band, being definitely promulgated
through the foreign Office. The British
reply to the American note regarding
the Wilhelmina incident presages that
such action viii be taken, and, as the
document points out, Great Britain hopes
when she takes this step to meet with
no objection from neutral countries.

Bill Acted on Favorably in
House Proposes Appoint
ment of Special Deputies
TO AID IN MAKING
APPRAISALS FOR TAX
Barre Petition Calls for a
State Humane
Society

Senate bill 90, which would authorize
| the commissioner of taxes to appoint
special deputies to assist town listers In
appraising property was the subject of
principal discussion at the forenoon ses-
sion OF the House to-day many members
opposing because of increased expense to
the state and Others arguing in favor be-
cause, in their opinion, it would increase
greatly the efficiency Of the listers by
giving them expert assistance.
Messrs. McClary Of Windsor, Moore of
Ludlow and Pirie Of Willamstown were
in accord against the bin because Of the
increased expense TO the state, and of
the powers given the commissioner Of
taxes to employ such deputies. A mo-
tion to order the bill to lie and be made
a special order for Tuesday was defeat
ed by a rising vote of 90 to 46, and Mr..
Caswell offered amendments to the bill
so that deputies would be appointed only
at the request OF a majority OF the board
of listers and the expense would be borne
by the town. Mr.. Foote of Cornwall fa-
vored this, also Mr.. Demeritt of Dux-
bury, who said that the commissioner
of taxes favored the measure. He
thought that the bill would tend to in
crease the grand lists Of the towns BY
making property owners give fairer lists
The bin was finally ordered to third
reading with proposals Of amendments.
as outlined above, to the Senate for con
currence.
A petition was read in both branches
this morning from residents of the city
of Barre asking that the legislature APP
point a state humane officer or specially
deputize sheriff in each county TO pro
