ARM Y
OF 211,OOO MEN
AGREED upon
Army Reorganization Bill Goes
Through Senate
HOUSE TO APPROVE AT ONCE
First of Big National Defence Meas
ures Should Reach President in
Few Days.

Washington, May 1.-THE senate
after an all day debate agreed tonight
to the conference report on the army
reorganization bin without a roll call
The house is expected to approve the
report within day or two, and send
the first of the big national defense
measures to the President.
The bill provides for a regular army
Of 211,000 officers and men at peace
strength, and approximately 26000 at
war strength and for federalized ma
tional guard Of $4,000 officers and
men at maximum strength.
Discussion of the conference report
embraced denunciation Of Great
Britain for execution of the Irish reyo-
lutionists, attacks on the administra-
tion's Mexican policy, renewed as.
saults on the national guard as a politi
cal force, and various criticisms of the
provision for a government nitrate
manufacturing plant.
Senator Fall asserted that General
Pershing with the $4,000 troops at his
command could march to Mexico City,
taking every town with little trouble,
if he were unhampered by orders from
Washington, and that ninety per cent
OF the Mexican people would welcome
such action,
He also declared that representa-
tives of General Carranza were negoti.
ating with foreign governments
against the United States, and that
this government would be forced to
fight foreign forces on Mexico soil il
it did not soon do its full duty to the
people of Mexico and the United States
Senator Borah OF Idaho. renewing
his attack on the National Guard as a
political force, declared it would prove
to be more detrimental TO the United
States than an invading army. He
arraigned Great Britain for the Irish
executions, declaring there had been
no greater blow to free institutions
since the European war began.
Senator Lodge and Senator Stone OF
the foreign relations committee also
criticized the army bill, the former
blaming the house for not accepting a
larger regular army proposed by the
senate. and the latter maintaining the
proposed army was too great. Sena
tor Stone said he was so anxious to sec
the nitrate provision enacted that he
would almost be willing to agree tC
any size army necessary, but insisted
there was no need of an announced
army.

LONG TRAIL MAP
G. M. c. Publishes Valuable Guide For
Hikers,

The VI orgton Section of the
Green Mou.' 'tate Club have just pub
lished map t1,esg the territory
over which the so-> % ), Bennington
section of the Long Tr4 laid and
includes section of about 900 square
miles or nearly all of the southern
half of Bennington County and part
of Windham County. The map is
printed in three colors and shows not
only the Long Trail but all other i'm
portant trails, highways, railroads and
the geographical features such as
brooks, ponds and elevations. An es-
pecially valuable feature is the loca
tion of shelters along the trail, places
where meals may be obtained and the
settlements having hotels The draw
ings for the map were executed by
Louis B. Puffer, c. E. of Troy, former
ly of Bennington, who did the work
without cost to the club. Copies have
been sent to all the local members
and from 500 to 1000 are wanted by
the state organization. These with
the quantity that will be sent outside
by the local section will give a good
bit of publicity to Bennington and
should entice many vacationist to
tramp its mountain trails.

PENRoSE STILL ON TOP.
Philadelphia Gives Ford More Votes
Than Hughes and Roosevelt

Harrisburg, Pa, May 1S.-United
States Senator Boise Penrose was vic
torious in the Pennsylvania primary
election contest in the most determin-
ed effort that has ever been made to
overthrow his leadership of the repub.
lican party. Despite the energetic
fight waged against him by the faction
OF the party which chose Gov .Brm-
baugh for its leader, Senator Penrose
nominated his candidate for auditor
general of the state, Charles A. Snyder
by from $4,000 to 10000 majority A
majority of the 76 delegates elected to
the national convention are Penrose
men and new state committee was
chosen that will elect him member of
the republican national committee to
succeed Henry G. Wasson of Pittsburg.
Incomplete returns at Philadelphia
last night indicate that Gov Brum.
baugh, running ahead of his ticket,
was elected delegate.at-large to the
national convention. 1t is not yet
certain that any of his II colleagues
on the anti-Penrose ticket for dele
gates.at.large were successful In the
campaign the Penrose element favored
an uninstructed delegation. while the
Brumbaugh faction advocated the
election of delegates pledged to vote
for the popular choice of the voters
as the party's presidential candidate.
On the republican preferential bal
lot only one name was printed. that
of Brumbaugh and there was much
interest in the extent to which voters
would write on the ballot the name
of the party leader they favored Ii

DR.. ]. v. MERROW
IN TROUBLE At

Biz Seizure of Heroin Made in His
Apartments
$4,000 TABLETS IN ONE CAN
$4,000 TABLETS IN ONE CAN
Physician Was Former Resident of
North Bennington Where He Con-
Quoted Sanitarum.

Press dispatches from Utica, n. Y,
indicate that DR.. j. W. Morrow, who
was a resident of North Bennington
for some time, is in serious trouble in
Utica. N. Y. A large seizure of heroin
tablets is reported to have been made
in his apartments in that city. The
dispatch under Utica date line reads
as follows:
Developments Of sensational ma.
ture are expected to follow the seizure
of $4,000 heroin tablets in the office
of DR.. ]. w. Morrow in this city by
Federal agents.
The tablets we're in two packages,
$4,000 in a bottle under table in a
hall of DR.. Merrow's apartment, and
$4,000 in a can under table in the
kitchen. The seizure is declared to be
the largest in the history of this di-
vision of the Internal Revenue De-
partment,
Or. E. W. Russell, formerly of
brooklyn ana until recently dSSOCl-
ated with DIR. Merrow in conducting
the National Clinic, Inc, in this city,
is said to have left town. DR. Morrow,
who is seriously i'll, has not yet been
arrested. He formerly practised med
icine in Vermont but is not registered
in New York State
DR.. Merrow was for a number of
years located in Burlington where he
maintained an Office and practiced as
a specialist. About three years ago
he moved from Burlington to North
Bennington and either leased or bar
gained for the hotel just opposite the
Rutland railroad station. 1t was his
expressed intention at that time to use
the building as a sanitarium and re-
sort for nervous invalids. 1t was
while he was located at North Ben
nington that his wife pressed suit for
divorce in which she charged that the
physician had been unfaithful. Since
he left North Bennington no informa.
tion regarding his movements or loca-
tion had been received here until the

SAME BOARD OF TRADE OFFICERS
Elected at Meeting of the Board of
Trade Wednesday Evening

The new directors of the Bennington
Board of Trade, chosen at the recent
business meeting and banquet in the
Putnam House, held their first meeting
in the secretary's office Wednesday
evening and reelected William IL,
Nichols as president and Emory S.
Harris as secretary.
There were present: William II.
Nichols, Emory S. Harris, John Nash,
Fred c. Martin, A. c. LaMarre, DR.. f.
S. Pratt, Harry b. North, Collins Nj.
Graves and William II. Wills.
Several resolutions were brought in
for official attention, the most import
ant of these on which the Boards vot-
ed was a resolution of thanks to James
c. Colgate for his contribution to the
new west road Among the other busi
ness transacted was the vote to see if
the Rutland railroad would not give
the public better phone service at the
local station, especially i'll the install
lation of pay station. AT the present
time, regardless of the urgency of the
call, it is necessary to travel some dis
tance before an available instrument
can be found.
The board also determined to take
up with Supt. Green of the local street
railway the question of extending the
trolley line further east on Main
street. The board was given to under
stand that at the time the road was
built, material was purchased for the
extension of the road to point 500 to
1000 feet further than at present. The
board is desirous OF ascertaning If
this equipment is still available and if
it cannot be utilized.
A question which was discussed at
some length was the suggestion which
has been current recently that the
Board of Trade cooperate with the
County Improvement Association in
the hiring of one paid secretary who
shall look after the work of both or
ganization on salary large eonugh to
secure a competent man.
The resignation of Willard w. Bart.
lett makes this an opportune time for
action along this line 1t is felt that
by the employment of a business ex-
ecutive, the right individual could
bring together all industrial interests
in Bennington and the county into har
mony and build both societies strong
er than ever. This does not mean that
either one Of them would lose its iden.
tity; simply that the expense of a
salaried secretary be divided be-
tween the two. 1t is understood that
the County Improvement Association
are net opposed TO such suggestion
The matter was taken under advise
ment.
