so perilous as that of England. but we
haye just as much reason to make our
own defense our first duty.
When the preparedness propaganda
was started, the press was filed with
imaginary cOnquests of America, all of
which were based upon our military
and naval weakness. Since then much
has been done to strengthen Army,
Navy and coast defenses, but even SO
cur position Is by no means impregnable,
and will not be nearly SO for a long
time to come.
It is well known that the Navy would
have TO dedicated before any landing
could be attempted on American shores.
The American Navy is now, however,
about third or fourth in strength, and
weak IN some branches which modern
warfare has made most necessary.
Furthermore, it has two very long coast
lines 10 guard, and viewing the matter
from a military standpoint it is quite
conceivable that both of them might be
menaced at once.
If the Navy were defeated the coast
defenses and The Army, which we are
now increasing as rapidly as possible,
would remain between US and danger.
The coast defenses protect only few
points. and they require the support Of
large bodies Of troops in order efficient
ly to protect those. This leaves great
stretches of coastline dependent wholly
upon mobile forces for defense.
For these reasons the professional
soldiers. upon whom rests the rcspon-
sibility for the country's safety. are
opposed to any hasty dispatches of
forces to Europe.

B. & o. To Reduce Trains.

On the suggestion of the War Board
at Washington, the operating depart
ment of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road is preparing to curtail its passenger
service as far as possible and with the
least inconvenience to the travelling
public. The purpose is to keep the main
line of the system in the industrial Sec
tons and in the coal regions unincumber-
ed to facilitate the movement of food
stuffs, supplies of all kinds for the
Government and to give added equip
ment to handle this necessary traffic
freely in all emergencies.
Definite steps toward curtailment
have been taken by o. P. McCarty, in
passenger train schedules, and in some
instances to curtail the service If it
is found necessary to do this, advance
notice will be given interested districts,
and an endeavor made to confer in
advance with the interested COM
munities, with the view of bringing
about such adjustments as will cause
the least inconvenience.
The first service to be affected will
be excursions and special parties mov-
ing to conventions for other reasons at
reduced fares. This will be followed
by the elimination of unremuneratiye
local and commuter trains, but this will
only be done after conferences with
those affected. Branch lire service
will be curtailed by removing trains as
well as consolidating the service to en-
able a mixed train to take care of
both passenger and freight schedules.
This same policy will be pursued by
all the other railroads.

The Bennington evening banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 19??-1961, 1917-02-10
Public Poor Employer

The Bennington Banner has deliv-
cred very effective little common
tary on the foolishness of young men
seeking and holding public Office. Very
few men ever secure a competence
from the savings which they make
fiom official salaries. The pay in the
first place. even in the high Offices, is
small compared with that received by
the well trained professional or tech
meal workers or with the rewards
which come from meteorological pri-
waite business. We know CT many men
who are running productive farms, lit
tie stores, small shops, and other
places of business who have more net
cash at the end of the year than any
Office holder in the entire state of Yer
mont and these men not conspicuous
have more peace of mind and content
ment day by day The man who gets
into public office is losing all chance
at the big places and not infrequently
he finds himself out of job at the
time when the dead line of age makes
It impossible TO take up a new line
OF work with any prospect of success.
To the young men who are soon COM
ing into the harness this advice is
timely and good--find your work and
stick to ii, and let the other fellow
have the public Office Brattleboro
