OUR INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH

There is no better American authority upon industrial conditions in the United States than William l.. Saunders, who is vice president of the naval consulting board and the executive head of one of the largest of American industries, whose apparatus is found in every part of the world where railroad construction, mining or foundation building is carried on.
 MT. Sanders is a very warm advocate of industrial cooperation. He believes that there should be thorough organiza- ton along this line, partly to enable the United States to secure and main- tain a fair share of the foreign mar kets and partly because industrial CO., operation will be of important service to the government in case the United States is threatened with war. MT. Saunders is convinced that cooperation of this kind is one of the most important factors in thorough preparation.
 The other day Mr. Saunders estimated that the wealth of the United States is today somewhat in excess of s200,000 900, GOO. This represents industrial strength so great that if it were thoroughly organized no nation would dare to become so hos- tile to the United States as to contemplate war To illustrate by some details this industrial strength. MT. Saunders asserts that in the United States the consumption of coal for a year is five tons for each person. No other nation compares with us in that respect England and Germany consume coal chiefly in the industries. at the rate of about four tons per capita. These figures alone are sufficient, in MT. Saunders opinion. to furnish excellent ev- ,dence of the magnitude of our industrial wealth, and in his view the European war will ultimately disclose that industrial wealth is one of the chief sources of de- fense to nation in time of war.

STEEL AND COPPER

It is not regarded as of more than mo- mentary importance that the market price of copper Is now as great as it is It is believed to be a momentary or ephemeral condition caused by European war emer- gencies. The economic and wise prepara- ton for meeting the great market of the future which will be offered to copper producers entails such prices as will make it possible for copper to compete success fully with certain forms of steel, and also easily to adjust itself to the de-

THE VOICE WITH A SMILE"
Thousands 10 Receive Special Emer'
gency Payment


More than $4,000 employees Of the
New England Telephone and Telc-
graph Company will each participate,
next week Wednesday. in the distribu.
ton Of an emergency payment to
assist them in meeting unusual pres.
ent expenses,
Employees who have been in the
service ono year or more will receive
three weeks pay. Employees who
have been in the service less than one
year but not less than three months
will receive two weeks pay. No en-
ployee will receive moro than SITS and
no employee Of less than three months
service and no general official will in
any way share in the payments.
While in no sense a holiday present,
the fact that il comes most unoxpecta
edly at this time Of the year makes it
a most timely evidence Of the contin-
ued concern of the company's officers
for.the welfare Of its employees, This
distribution to employees, amounting
TO over 100000, was decided by the
directors Of the New England Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company at
their meeting in Boston, Tuesday
Naturally, the voice with the smile"
is particularly in evidence among tele-
phones employees, without regard to
sex or relative rank.

more than pass the laws advocated by
preparedness leagues and authorize
the expenditure Of funds, to put this
Legislation into effect. When all this
has been accomplished, nothing Of real
practical value toward defense has
been gained unless the citizen Of the
country is willing to take up shooting
and learn how to handle a gun. There
are two ways of accomplishing this.
Congress can take the ultimate and
revolutionary step across the line into
the realm of compulsory military
training; or the people of the country
can, through civilian rifle clubs, breed
a race of men, who to drive into mill
tary camps would be unnecessary and
who would stand as bulwark of cit
izen soldiery ready to answer any
emergency.
This is why many preparedness or
CARNATIONS have done and are doing
all they can to give an impetus to the
citizen rifle club as an institution.
Primarily, the rifle club is an organ
ization whose members appreciate
rifle shooting as a clean, manly sport.
Primarily, the rifle club movement is
free of propaganda in any form. But
the fact remains that the rifle clubs in
the United States are doing more to-
day to the end of practical sane pre-
paredness than any other institution
rot excepting the citizen training
camps-for the rifle game is an all
year-round activity.
So when folks find themselves i'm
peding the progress of rifle shooting
conducted along lines which properly
safeguard the public, it might be well
for them to ponder on these facts.
There is deal more patriotism in
encouraging this movement than there
IS in the empty lip service in which SC
many are prone to indulge.-Ex;.

The Herald would urge, most

Superior Judges.
The sentiment seems setting, more

nultiple-court system, and The Her

judges in the Supreme Court and in
creasing the number of the latter, say
to seven or perhaps nine members

Of the county courts and part Of

This might necessitate some in

change ought to be made in the pres

THE VACANT JuDGEsHIP

Hon Frank C. Archibald and Robert r.
Healy Of Bennington County, Geo.
W. Hogan OF Franklin County, and
Hon. John W. Redmond OF Orleans
County Prominently Mentioned.
The lawyers Of Franklin county
have voted to support George NJ
Hogan OF st. Adams for Superior
judge. II was the supposition Of the
Franklin county lawyers that some
one Of the Superior judges now on the
bench would be promoted TO fill the
vacancy in the Supreme Court due 70
the decision Of Chief Justice Munson
not TO be candidate for reelection,
With this supposition in view his
Franklin county friends viii urge the
selection Of Mr.. Hogan for the posi-
ton of superior judge. Mr.. Hogan
will not have the field TO himself.
When the time comes Hon. Frank c.,
Archibald Of Manchester, will be q
candidate and will have the backing OF
most Of the lawyers Of Bennington and
Rutland counties and probably Of Ad-
Olson and Windham counties. Mr..
Archibald is one Of the leading attor
neys of the state. Tie grew up in Adj
olson county, studied law in Rutland
and,w while his law Office has been locat
ID at Manchester for the past % years
ne has practiced about as much in
Nindham and Rutland counties as in
Bennington. Mr.. Archibald has served
.wo terms in the House and one in
he Senate. He has been several times
lected states attorney for Benning.
.on county and has had many big cases
rs well as the ordinary practice Of a
Vermont lawyer. He is not an anna
eur and whatever the ability and
standing Of the other candidates it is
doubtful if any Of them have had the
experience and training which Mr..
| Archibald would take with him to the

gamble safely on a volunteer army,

the new men.
