Thursday June IA, 1917.
HoosIck FALLS MISFORTUNE

The Banner few days ago
spoke kindly and courteously of Hoo
sick Falls in an article which some
readers of The Banner will remember.
The Hoosick Falls Democrat this
week prints a distorted extract from
what The Banner said and adds the
following:
In keeping with its usual custom.
the Banner is premature and near
sighted. 1t fails to take all the facts
into consideration. and therefore, as
in the days of old. goes astray. A
little light on the Liberty Loan cam
paign in Hoosick Falls may result in
the Banners delusion about the pa
triotism of Hoosck Falls being dis
PEELED Today the total subscription
to the Liberty Loan in the town of
Hoosick is more than 100000. And
the greater part of that amount
comes from the people who earn their
bread by the sweat of their brow
not from New York state tax-dodgers
who claims residence in Vermont
We would invite the Banner to pub
| lsh list of the subscribers to the
Liberty Loan in Bennington; The
Democrat will do the same for the
town of Hoosick. and then may be
seen the claims for patriotic endeavor
in their true light.
And while the Banner is comfort
| ing itself on the size of Bennington's
Liberty Loan subscription, we would
venture to have it ask itself how
many of its sons are doing their
| Bit in the khaki of Uncle Sam. The
Banner should not feel that the mis-
placed glory of 1776, as indicated by
| the location of the Walloomsac battle
| monument. will last forever. But
| then, we can hardly expect the
mother town OF Vermont to be ac-
quanted with the doing of 1917-it
is now about at the period of the
Mexican war"
The Banner has no reply to make,
no argument to offer. Hoosick Falls
is fine, patriotic town Its citizens
are practically all public spirited men
and women. 1t has better streets
than Bennington Is doubtless better
in some other respects, not quite as
coed perhaps in few, and as a whole
not much different The two towns
are neighbors and are not at war.
We have no figures available as tc
the boys in service. Probably Ben
nington has more in number for the
town is doubtless somewhat larger
but we presume the proportion /:
about the same. lloosick Falls has I
splendid lot of boys in khaki and So
has Bennington. We people of Ben
nington are proud and glad of the
showing Hoosick Falls has made ant
we have no doubt that the good people
The Bennington evening banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 19??-1961, 1917-06-14

of Hoosick Falls feel precisely the
same toward Bennington and Ben
nington soldiers. Bennington is rep
resented with the Hoosick Falls
boys and Hoosick Falls with Benning-
ton. They have no quarrel.
The Liberty loan sale is a small
matter Perhaps Bennington had a
little more ready money and perhaps
the committee here worked harder
I'VE are too proud to fight" over SO
little thing. 1t is no time to pro
mote strife and pickering among
neighbors.
We trust that the Democrat does
not represent the sentiment or atti
tude OF Hoosick Falls toward Ben
nington. We do not believe that il
does If so it is Hoosick Falls mis-
fortune rather than its fault, Neither
q town nor an individual is to he
blamed for something it cant help.

URGED TO PUSH FOOD BILL
President Asked BY Gompers and
Others to Hasten Action

Washington, June 1.-THE cam
paign for sweeping war food legisla-
ton gathered fresh impetus today.
Representatives of organized labor,
headed by Samuel Gompers, President
of the American Federation of Labor,
went to the White House this after
noon and told President Wilson that
there was danger of serious unrest
among the workingmen of the country
The Bennington evening banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 19??-1961, 1917-06-14

unless congress, without further de.
lay, adopted food administration leg
islation which would make possible
an effective fight upon inflated war
price,.
Meanwhile the Administration S
Food Control bill, comforting such
sweeping powers as to make the
president virtually food dictator, was
agreed to by the House Agricultural
committee by n vote OF II to ), an
immediate report of the bill to the
house being authorized. Chairman
Lover expects that the house will pass
this bill with less than two weeks
debate. Tho Administration first
food bill. which is designed to stimu-
late production is now in conference.
AT the White House conference Mr..
Gompers, as spokesman, laid before
the president reports received from
many sections OF the, United States,
With this information before him,
the President was asked either to 90
before congress and personally re-
quest speedy action or to call before
him at the White House the leaders of
both legislative bodies and use all of
his influence to get the Food Control
bill on the statute books at the earli-
est date possible Full confidence was
expressed in Herbert c. Hoover. Sc
lected by President Wilson to head
the food administration
President Wilson was informal that
he would have the full backing of or
gained labor and that representatives
in every part of the county would be
asked to start a concerted drive on
senators and representatives Action
along the latter line was taken at a
recent meeting of the labor union men
and dozen congressman, among them
