Coming from the scene of their recent

master minds of detectives, they trav-

transeontinental trains.
The pair arrived at the Hotel Vermont
( from Manchester n. H., three days ago
with fashionable equipage, and registered
as Mr.. and Mrs. r. Duncan of New York

Mr. Duncan represented to the hotel
management that he was travelling man
and that he usually spent his winters in
Porto Rico, but this year he wanted to
spend it in Burlington. He also inquired
as to prospective suites in refined neigh.

WANTS WAR AIMS REVISED.
Marquis of Landsdowne of Great Britain
Issues Appeal.

London. Nov. 30.-The strongest i'm
sions of the rival schools on the war pol
icy of the allies was provoked yesterday
from most unexpected quarter by the
publication of long letter from the mar
quis of Landsdowne, strongly pleading
for revision of the allies war aims and
an attempt to secure peace before the
prolongation of the war leads to the ruin
of the civilized world"
The marquis of Landsdowne is a typi-
cal representative of the old Tory party.
He was member of Asquith's coalition
administration and was secretary for
foreign affairs in Lord Salisbury's and
Mr.. Balfour's MINISTRIES. He was vice
roy of India and governor general of Can
ada. He was the last public man to be
suspected of pacifist tendencies.
His letter gives formal adhesion to
President Wilson's policy of league of
nations, and he asks: what will be the
value of the blessings of peace to nations
so exhausted that they can scarcely
stretch forth hand TO grasp them?"
Lord Landsdowne contends that an i'm
mense stimulus would probably be given
to the peace party in Germany if it were
understood First, that the annihila-
ton of Germany as great power was
not desired; second, that we do not seek
to impose upon the German people form
of government against their choice; third,
that except as a legitimate war meas
ure, we do not desire TO deny to Germany
her place among the great commercial
countries; fourth, that we are PREPARED
after the war, in concert with the other
powers, to examine the international
problems connected with the freedom of
the seas; fifth, that we are prepared TO
enter into an international pact under
which ample opportunities would be af
forded for the settlement of international
disputes by peaceful means"

PILOT FOOD
| SEIZURE RIOTS
A Nationwide Conspiracy Is
Found to Center in
Boston
ANARCHISTS
ARE INVOLVED
Louis Galleani Is Named in
Connection With Lat
est Revelations

Boston, Nov. 30.--Agents of the de
partment OF justice here confirmed
Wednesday night the disclosure in Seat,
tie of the existence of an anarchistic plot
to seize foodstufrs in various parts OF
the country. They also said that Bos-
ton was believed to have been selected
as the center of the intrigue.
! II was their opinion that the neishbor
| ing city of Lynn was the general head
quarters of the conspirators, although the
Iringleaders maintained their homes else
where.
Evidence of a startling nature has been
obtained, according to the federal Off
Gals. but has been withheld from the
public pending the trial Of three Lynn
men who were arrested six months ago,
charged with conspiring to counsel young
men against the selective service act.
The defendants are Louis Galleani, pro-
prietor of a small newspaper called the
Crona@. and John Franc and Carlo
Valdonicci. They are out ON substantial
bail.
The case was to have been tried in
October, but few days before the date
set for the trial was postponed on the
ground that the government had OBJ
tanned additional important information.
Federal agents last night said that the
new evidence involved alleged conspra
tors in various parts OF the country,
whose movements have been traced.
Much of the information was obtained
it was said, from articles appearing in
the Cronaca.
The belief was expressed that several
persons now under arrest for violations
of the draft law might be involved in
the Lynn case.
In connection with the report from
Seattle that Italian leaders had told their
followers that Boston police had been
furnished with machine guns to quell
food plots, it was recalled that the state
publicity committee equipped the police
several months ago with rapid-frers 10

Guardsmen were called into |
federal service at the start of the war.

CONDEMNED SINN FEINERS.
For Alternating the Sympathy of thu
United States.

Dublin. Nov 3d. Correspondence q
the Associated Press John Dillon, Ma
tionahst member of the House of Com
mons, addressing the Ancient Order OF
Hibernians in Dublin recently, condemned
| the Sim Feiners for alternating the sym
pathy of the United States from the
Irish cause" The friendship and sup.
port of the Americans in Ireland's strug-
gle for liberty was their greatest asset
he said. But what was happening in
America to-day filled him with horror
Friends and supporters of the Sim Fem
ers in Ireland, he said, were now charged
with treason to the flag, and with enter
ing into combination with Germany TO
defeat America. He was deeply con-
WINGED that the Irish race in America
would take steps Immediately to dis
associate the name of Ireland from such
conduct.
Nobody, said Mr. Dillon, could exag-
gerate the fatal character of the policy
of undertaking to make Ireland re-
public, and, as a first step in that career,
quarreling with the United States and
turning on the flag which was the dear
est to the Irish race of any flag in the
world.

rRA1LED TO BURLINGTON.
Mr.. and Mrs. R. Duncan, Alleged Forgers,
Were Arrested.

Burlington, Nov. 30.-After being
Swallowed over the entire nation, from
! the Pacific to the Atlantic, from the
Gulf of Mexico to the Green mountain
state, for more than year by Pinker-
ton detectives of world wide repute, Mr.
and Mrs r. Duncan, alleged forgers and
alleged operators of mail defrauding
scheme, were arrested in this city yes
terday afternoon at their rooms in the
Hotel Vermont by Deputy United States
Marhall Thomas Reeves and are now be-
hind the bars of the county Jail, awaiting
q hearing.
New York City is claimed to be the
home of the pair, but during the past
year their operations have taken them
from Oakland, Cal, to the principal cities
of the South and middle West.
Their entrance into the quiet New Eng
land states was made within the past

Work of Women on Farm.

! The introduction of creameries and
cheese factories and the sale of milk for
! shipment to New York, Boston or other
markets, has relieved the wives of farm
ers of no small degree of the hard work
of dairying. as regards the manufacture
! of dairy products. The increasing scar
city of help and other developments. have
served, however, to increase the heavy
work of the farmers wife and daughters
in various ways that doubtless more
than make up the difference changing
dairy methods have brought about
Many of us have not stopped to take
into account the increasing burdens this
war will bring to the housewives of the
farmers of Vermont and other states
We have already seen women doing
heavy work on Vermont farms in some
instances that we regretted yet we rec
ognize the fact that if this struggle con-
tinues for two or mole years, as figured
in Washington, the drawing of young
men from all directions must of neees-
sity increase the burdens of the women
on our farms as well as others. This is
a phase of the war situation which
should not be lost to view, when CON
sidering the relief of labor situations.
In this direction the Brattleboro Reform
er well says:
CLOSE to the work of the county
agents in increasing the acreage and pro-
duction of crops in Vermont. and in
showing the farmers how to manage bet
ter diaries and to turn out more animals
for the markets is the efforts of the
young women employed as demonstra-
ton agents. The work of the women in
the households of the farms, in supple
menting that of the men in the fields, is
of great Importance. More attention
should be paid to giving the women bet
ter conditions under which to do their
work. A few hundred dollars expended
in a farm home where the women now
labor in a primitive way would give hot
and cold running water, sanitary plumb
ing, bathrooms and flush closets, set tubs
for the washings and many other con-
veniences'
Reduced to its lowest terms. this war
is to be won by food. Reduced to its
lowest terms in turn food means hard |
work by the farmers and the farmers |
wives. Therefore one of the chief factors |
in the winning of this war by the United |
States over Germany must begin funda- |
with the important work of (
our farms, which spells increased food |
