chamberlain BILL NOW
GROWS MORE URGENT
Measure Would Give President Army
of Nearly 100000 if Needed
in Mexico.

BY passing the Chamberlain bill in its
present form Congress would authorize
the President not only to use the National
Guard in dealing with the Mexican situa-
ton. but to increase the strength of the
National Guard to 240.000. This Is In ad-
dition to the authority which Is given the
President by the Chamberlain bill to
raise the regular army to war strength
of 24s.0OO The two forces would give the
President an army of almost 100000,
which it is estimated by the military
authorities would be needed to pacify
Mexico.
Section Is of the Chamberlain bill con-
fers a wide authority upon the President
for maintaining a force of volunteer SOL
diers. Under II he could accept the en-
tire National Guard of New York or any
other State as a volunteer force and Or
der 1t Immediately to the Mexican Dor
der.
All question of doubt as to whether
the President will be authorized to send
them into Mexico would then be removed.
The National Guard forces under this bill
would then be on the same status of the
regular army.
The greatest advantage in the imme-
date passage Of the Chamberlain bill in
its present form would be that it would
give the President an opportunity to pre-
pare for any developments in the MeXi-
can situation. He could do this with
out making any formal declaration OF
war. A force of 10000 troops could be
modified while the regular army is con-
Quoting the punitive expedition already
ordered.
If, instead OF passing the Chamberlain
bill no action is taken by Congress, II
will be necessary for the President to
send a message to Congress asking for
authority to call for volunteers and be-
fore they can be sent into Mexico for
NAL declaration of war probably would
be required. This would consume six
or seven months, as the National Guard
must be converted into volunteers and
recognized before 1t can be used In Tor
| eign service.

Two Kinds of Compensation.
{ Northfeld News.J

Frank f. Howe of the BENNINGTON
Banner is one of the men who looks
into things pretty thoroughly before
he takes stand. What he has to say
about the increases of awards under
the workmen S compensation act is
worth thinking about. The News would
like to hear from Chairman Robert
Slmonds on the question. Here is the
way the Banner looks at it:
There Is some talk in the state. and
both party platforms take notice of if.
III favor of increasing the awards under
the Workmen S compensation law, II
IS true that these awards are some
what lower than in the great industrial
states of New York and Massachusetts
but they ought to be, partly for the
reason that the expenses of living in
vermont are slightly lower than in the
great centers of population, but chiefly
IN order to encourage the industrial de-
Velopment of Vermont. The Vermont
law should give reasonable, but not ex-
travagant compensation There is an
other feature of this compensation for
INJURY that ought to be considered and
the sooner the better. This feature is
compulsory insurance by the employees
themselves in at least all the dangerous
trades and this means practically all
trades where power is used. Work
men S compensation, no matter how
generous the awards, is never wholly
adequate in case of accident. Ger
many and some other European coun-
tries have developed system of com
pulsory insurance which in the main has
worked well and is found splendid
thing to supplement workmen S compen-
satlon. 1t would be a good thing in
Vermont and in every other state in the
union. -

Political Resurrection.

1.-The men who hoped that Allen NJ.

to note that the ex-governor is still on

qualities of a sorehead. Mr. Fletcher

Wouldn t it be better for Mr. FIetch-
er If his friends did not take the pains
to resurrect him every little while?
1t wasn't long ago when a newspaper
devoted to Mr.. Fletcher was taking
exception to continued comment on
the outcome of the senatorial prima-
RES, but the one sure way to keep the
antl-Fletcher sentiment stirred up is
to try to keep him before the people.
because the convictions previous to
the primary are the convictions subse-
quent to it. And it ism t the people
that are resurrecting the ex-governor;
not they, indeed. SO far as Mr..
Fletcher s being on the stump is con
cerned, it may have been wise move.
but from reports that come from one
locality where he is scheduled if

in Europe. France, $50; Russia. 900;
Italy, POO; Rumania, 600; Macedonia.

American: " In general it is safe to cs-
innate two men per yard of front as
the minimum efficient force. Roughly,
this comes to $500 men per mile of
front. Basing the estimate on this.
100000 soldiers actually hold these
lines, exclusive of general reserves

supply workers. And this number rep
rcscuts the battle line of only one

the past nine months the Germans have

Goodness Milled Out of Wheat.
Springfield Union. J

A food expert declares that the greater
part of the nutritive value of wheat -four
is mllled out of it by the processes that are
employed to make the -four pure white,
and he asserts that there would be great
saving IN money and large gain in the
pubic health if the expensive milling ma
chlnery at present in use were scrapped
and the flour mills returned to the old
fashioned methods. If these assertions are
based on fact, it would seem to be to the
interest of the manufacturer as we'll as

n remarkable feature of the Euro
pean war situation lust now is the in
explicable inactivity of Russia. That
happened once before, when the British
and French were seeking to force the
Dardanelles and reach Constantinonle
before the Russian forces. Now when
everybody expects Russia to do its
duty by Rumania, which it inveigled
INTO the war, you hear nothing much
about Russian offensive.
Doubtless the explanation now as in
the Dardanelles crisis is the same

Will show you how thoroughly Rumania
cuts off Russia from ConstantinopIe
which has been promised to the Gar
by England. If Rumania were to win.
she would naturally ask for Austrian
territory. She also wants Bessarabia. a
Russian province, which would round
out Rumania on the Black Sea and en-
large the barrier between Russia and
Constantinople. If on the other hand
Germany is allowed to go ahead and
crush Rumania for military reasons as
Serbia was crushed, then when the al

Rudyard Kipling was plainly right
when he warned Britain to- beware of

for the new offensive movement against
