URGES NO DISCUSSION
OF MILITARY TRAINING
Owen r. Lovejoy Writes to President
Regarding Latter's Address
to Congress.

owen r. Lovejoy, secretary of the
national child labor committee and a
member of the executive committee of
the American Onion Against Militarism,
today made public a letter he had
written to President Wilson urging him
to resist pressure from Senator Cham
berlain and others to include COM
pulsory military training and service
among the subjects proposed for con-
sideration at the special session of
Congress.
'I do not see why the present ma
tioual defense act, with its provisions
for the training Of 100000 young men
a year on the volunteer basis, should
not lie given a fair chance to prove its
merit before the country abandons it
for conscription." wrote Mr.. Lovejoy.
The suggestion recently made by
ex-President Taft that a conscription
law be put over now while the people
are inf1amed seems to be highly i'm
moral from the standpoint of states
manship.
"If there is TO be any conscription.
I submit that we should make the
sacrifice of minor interests first be-
fore presenting the ultimate gift"

CHILDREN BARRED.
None under 10 Can Go TO Fort Ethan
Allen.

AIIems
Orders have been issued at Fort Ethan
Allen forbidding children under the age OF
16 to enter the government reservation.
The order also applies to children who i've
at the Post, and who will not be permitted
to leave there until the period Of quaran-
tine is over. The order went into erect
last night and is a precaution against
poliomyelitis. which has visited Burling-
ton. There is at present one case In this
city.
Another order has also been sent out to
the soldiers which will probably sadden
the hearts of the druggists and soda water
dispensers of the city. Beginning Monday
night, soldiers are no longer permitted to
indulge in soda or ice cream In Burning
ton, Winooski or Essex Junction. The pan
placed on such delcacies is as hard ana
fast as that placed on intoxicants, al
though not for the same purpose. II Is
feared that the soda fountains are
source of contagion and polio cases might
result. The boys are still permitted TO
come to the city. however.
Investigations are In progress at Fort
Ethan Allen as to the suitability or the
Post as a permanent base hospital. The
showing that the hospital made recently
at the time Of the inspection Of Surgeon
General Gorgas was SO satisfactory tnat
since then plans have been in progress for
making the Post base hospital only. and
to have the regiments withdrawn. This
seems quite possible now for one-half OF
the Second cavalry who we're In the bar
racks have gone and medical men have
come to take their place. In winter 1t will
be necessary of course to house all OF the
men in the barracks and this would
|necessitate the removal of the entire
Second cavalry.

FIRE IN CIGAR STORE,
Liberal Use Of Water Restricts DAM
age to That Done By Smoke.

Fire broke out in the basement of
Brooks Cigar Store at II Church
street at 7:06 o'clock Tuesday night. The
alarm was sent in from box ~ at
the head Of Church street and the en-
tire fire department responded.
Chief Stockwell. on arrival. ordered
four streams of water turned into the
basement. where several bales of
paper were on fire. After water had
been poured into the building for
about half an hour and everything
of a burning nature had been drowned
out, the chief and his men looked the
premises over carefully and decided
that but small damage had been DONE
The fact that many tenants in the
building suffered from smoke may add
a little to the damage however. Chief
Stockwell claims that the fire was
set.
Soldiers who rescued the flag from
over the front of the store. where it
was In immediate danger of being
burned, drew forth tumultuous APP
plause from the large number Of peo-
pie. who had gathered to witness the
fire laddies at work. As 1t was, the
national emblem was badly smoked.
The recall was sounded at 1855.
