Members of the Conway school board personally contributed $55 more and the balance was subscribed by local merchants and business men.

WILL URGE PEACE
 BY FORCE OF ARMS PEACE LEAGUE MEETING
Harvard President Invites Dr, J. H. Reynolds to Attend Convention
 at Washington.

Dr. J. H. Reynolds, president of Hendrix College, has received a com munication from Dr. A. Lawrence Lowell, president of Harvard Uni versity, urging him to attend the first annual assemblage of the League to Enforce Peace, which will be held in Washington, D. C., on May 26 and 27. Ex-President Taft is president of the League. Dr. Lowell is chairman of the executive committee.
 "f, however" Dr. Lowell writes, "you should be unable to attend the meeting, may we ask you to appoint other delegates to represent your in stitution, either from the faculty or from the board of trustees. We con- ceive the program of the League to Enforce Peace to be so fundamental to business, industrial and social fu- ture of our country, and to the part it must hereafter play in information al affairs, that we consider it most desirable that leaders of thought in every community, and especially in the higher institutions of learning shall be fully informed regarding the movement"
 It was Dr. Lowell. who with Ex- President Taft and others inaugural ed the league-to-enforce peace move ment, at the Independence Hall meet ing last June, and it is understood that it was Harvard's president who originated the proposal that the joint armed forces of league of nations be used against any signatory refus- ing to keep an agreement to submit a dispute to court of arbitration or council of conciliation before begin ming hostilities or declaring war. This proposal is the main feature of the leagues program.

The Farmes' Union has set . high standard of ethics on this subject, and other organizations might do we'll to follow it's example. There is a dispo- sition in many organizations to take action that will effectually prevent any clique or individual from using the association to further their own political schemes.
 "Let us hope that higher order of politics and political methods will be the order of the future," says one who has been close observer of affairs, "and that certain political methods in- jected into recent campaigns will bs forever tabooed."

Little Rock, May 4.-The efforts that have been made at times in the past by aspiring politicians to use fraternities and associations of va rious kinds to further their political ambitions is being generally drowned upon by all lovers of fair play. Some organizations will not tolerate such use of membership privileges, and the membership of other lodges is dis countenancing it most effectively.

Not the Stuff of which Senators
are Made
Rutland News

The question, why did Gov. Charles w.
Gates become candidate for the United
st ates senatorship, has not yet been
answered Nor has any effort been made
to answer it. The worthy executive
must have had lone put over on him"
by some rabid anti-Page people. Just
because he had been urged by a number
of people to be candidate for the high
Office, is not adequate for his becoming
so, in the minds of really thoughtful
people. Mr. Gates is most satisfactory
governor. There is not a word to be
said in disparagement of him as loyal
Vermonter. But his training has not
been at all along the line to fit him for a
positionin the senate of the United States.
1t seems rather unfortunate that he did
not have loyal friends frank enough to
tell him so.

Always Been a Vermonter
(Fair Haven Era)

To the editor of the Era the sum and
substance of the ontest is that there are
two big business men out for the same
position. One has always been a YER
monter, the other is sort of a Home
Week guest, one has given life time to
the upbuilding of business in Vermont,
with fame that has become world wide
the other the creating of monopoly in
Indianapolis that brought him great
wealth., one has had experience in the
Halls of Congress where years are re-
quired to obtain footing, the other is a
novice, perhaps not in the affairs of state
but in the affairs of the nation. Other
comparisons might be made but they
would seem to be unnecessary for people
as intelligent as those of Vermont.

A Few More Questions
For Commissioner Williams.
(Rutland Herald)

The expected has happened! Allen
M. Fletcher's organization is now adver-
Using extensively Bank Commissioner F.
c. Williams political attack upon Carroll
S. Page. The voters of Vermont prob
ably will not be deceived by Mr.. Williams
protestations that he is acting solely in
the interests of the Banking department
of this state. 1t now seems obvious that
his so called letter "exposing Page "
was conceived in Fletcher's political
camp, and that its publication was part
of political plot.
Mr.. Williams has become a voluntary
witness against Senator Page. The value
of his testimony is dependent almost en-
tirely upon what, if any, interest he has.
The voters of Vermont will not be de-
ceived. They are going to search out and
lay bare the interest of Mr.. Williams in
this matter, In order that his statement
may be given its proper place.
The Rutland News asked some ques-
tions of Mr.. Williams in its issue of last
Friday, which remain unanswered. Will
he refrain from answering the following
questions?
1. For whom are you going to vote as
Republican candidate for the United
States Senate?
2. Is not your law partner an active
political supporter of Allen M. Fletcher,
and what, if any, compensation has he
received, or will he receive?
With whom did you talk or advise
about the statement before you made 1t?
If you had the interests of the Bank
ing department alone in mind and felt
that some statement should be made in
reference to attacks upon Senator Page
40 q hankar and in sipu tious auains t vour
department, why did you not wait few
weeks until after the primaries and then
make the statement at a time when no
charge could be made that you were do
ing it for politial purposes?
5 Are you now or will you become
candidate for reappointment to the office
which you now hold?
Let the light in SO that all the voters
of this state may see and know the real
reason for Mr.. Williams attack upon
Senator Page.
