URGE AUTO DEVICE
INDICATING COURSE
The Safety First Federation
Would Have Warning
for Car Behind.

Universal use Of a mechanical or
electrical signaling device on automo-
bilcs so as TO indicate the course of
the car IS one OF the aims OF the
Safety First Federation OF America.
Such devices were considered by the
police officials of many cities who
We're in attendance at a recent meet
ng of the street traffic committee OF
the federation. as a necessity upon
closed or Curtlined cars, and their
use on automobiles generally was
commended In view Of the traffic CON
sestiou in the larger cities and in con-
sidcTatiOn of the enormous production
of automobiles announced by the
manufacturers FOR the present year.
In the belief that automobile signal
devices Will increase in popularity a
plan was considered to provide Tor
uniformity in their location ard at
tachmCut to motor vehicles, pref

of the signal with the tail light and

Contcndod that the siEals should be
shown both on the front and rear so
as To indicate to traffic officers, pc

exactly what movement the car Will

1t was coutcrd,d by the committee
that signals to indicate the course or

the equipment as the lights. horn

especially true owing To the use OF
closed or curtain,d cars during rainy
weather and in wintry months, when
it Is impossible to signal by hand.
Rv giving its Endorsement To the
development and extension of this
new motor car accessory the street
traffic committee hopes To ohviate the
possibility of accidents and to relieve
traffic congestion. 1t is believed that
the time is not far distant when such
signals will be required by law. In

opoRK BARRI" FooLIsHNEss.

The thorough foolishness of some OF
the pork barr'l" legislation in Congress
is well shown in the allotments in the
present public buildings bill, which is
likely to be pushed through at the pres
ent session of the legislators. For in
stance. the town of Hazard, in Kentucky,
has an allotment OF $4,000 for
postoflice. Hazard is a place consider
ably smaller than the town OF Orange in
our own state and the receipts Of the
postoflice last year reached the prineely
proportions of S4,4ss.35. Up till now the
government has been renting quarters
for the postoflice at cost of $3.50 per
wear. Then there is Elko, New, a town
of approximately the size OF Williams
town. 1t is proposed to give Elko
public building that will cost $4,000 at
the first estimate Other towns scattered
in various parts of the country are to
benefit by the largesse of the federal
government if their friends can take ad-
vantage of the carelessness of the other
members of Congress. 1t is too bad that
some decent sense of proportion cannot
be used in this division of the spoils.

THE BEARER OF THE OLIVE
BRANCH

When Germany comes ont as econ.
scous of her responsibility to humanity,
to civilization and to what-not with a
scheme for restoration of peace and the
establishment of permanent amity among
nations, it must be borne in mind that
this same Germany has not heretofore
shown that same feeling of responsible
ity. She did not show ii when she ruth
lessly over-ran little Belgium under the
excuse Of expediency in order to get at
the throat of one of her big foes. She
did not show it when she sent the Lusi-
tania to the bottom of the sea with the
lives of more than thousand human be
ings who by no stretch of the magma
ton could be counted as personal enemies
of the imperial rule of the kaiser. She
did not show it in the ruthless destruc-
ton of some of the best and highest in
the realm of art. She did not show it in
the intense rigor of her military regime
over every people who were unfortunate
enough to come under her sway. She did
not show it when she took over 100000
Belgians into virtual bondage, wrenching
them from their native land and setting
them to do the work of German people
that the latter might be set loose to
wreak further vengeance on the country
of those same BeIgians. Indeed, Ger
many has not since Aug. /, l9l4, shown
any pronounced feeling of responsibility
TO humanity to civilization, or to any
thing but her own aggrandizement
When those facts are brought to mind, it
is no wonder that the members of the
present entente alliance look askance at
the peace proffer so unexpectedly thrust
out to them by the great leader of the
central powers. The entente countries
cannot be blamed for being suspicious OF
the olive branch that may at any time
be transformed into a sword; nor should
thew be severely censured for holding to
the idea of maintaining the fight until
''reparation has been done" and future
security guaranteed Reparation ought
to be done, and fairly stable peace should
be imperatively demanded.

CURRENT COMMENT
The Judgeship,

With a friendly eye opt for its neigh
bors, the st. Johnsbury Republican has
this to say about the judgeship "vacan-
cy:"
"When Chief Judge Munson steps
down from tile bench, If the supreme
court is kept as it is numerically, in all
probability Judge Willard w. Miles OF
Barton will be promoted from the SUI
perior court to the supreme court. The
Franklin county bar endorses George NJ,
Hogan of st. Adams for election to the
bench while the Hyde Park News and
Citizen hopes that John W. Redmond OF
Newport may be the final choice of the
legislature There is evidently no lack
of good material that is willing"
In case an actual vacancy exists, it
seems likely that the bar of Bennington
county, Rutland county and Addison
county will develop some solid strength
for Frank c. Archibald of Manchester,
who has been brought forward as ten
tative candidate.
There is also Robert Z. Healy OF Ben
nington, who already has served on the
bench of the supreme court for BRIEF

will develop like mushrooms in moist
weather once it becomes known that an
actual vacancy exists.
The Herald would urge, most strong
w, the Importance Of recognizing the
fact that there may be no vacancy when
the time comes TO elect justices of the
