AIMED AT DUTCH
100000 Tons of Shipping Mostly
Tied UP In Holland

Washington, Aug. 21.-Sir Robert
Cecil's announcement in the commons
that neutral ships aiding the enemy
would be treated as enemy shipping
after the war is interpreted here as
being plainly aimed at the Dutch. Hol-
land has more than 2,000.444 tons Of
shipping, most of which Is tied up in
her own ports. The entente nations
have resorted to every means short of
actual coercive measures to get Hol
land to change her policy and release
these ships, but without avail
The threat is now held over the
Dutch that unless they release their
ships and thereby relieve the shortage
in ocean tonnage available they will
be included within the scope of the
post bellum economic war against
Germany and her allies decided upor
by the entente at the Paris and Lon
don conferences.
Holland is the only nation whicl
has resorted to this policy to save hel
ships from the risk of destruction.

HAD
NOT LEFT FORT
THIS MORNING
Just What Vermont Boys Are
Doing Not Given
CAMP IN TURMOIL
All Are Anxious to Go and Those
Who Are Left Behind Ask To
Be Included.

Up to 2 o'clock this afternoon the
Banner had received no news today
from Fort Ethan Allen relative to the
movement of the Vermont troops.
A letter written yesterday by Paul
Jewett to his sister stated that he
and Harry Remington were going, but
that August Kelson was not. He also
wrote that they were to start Thurs
day.
II Is reported, more or less by
hearsay, that among the 81 of Com
pany who are not taken are Edmund
Howe, Charles Silver, William
Hawks, August Kelson, Edward
Flynn, G. w. LaCroix, ID. Devenow
and two others. The beys were CIV
en- no choice in the matter-some
were ordered to go and some to stay.
The Free Press today has the fol-
lowing relative TO the regiment
"a considerable amount of hustle
and hustle was connected with the
preparations yesterday for the First
Vermont regiments departure to an
other camp. Each man has all of his
effects packed and ready TO pick up
at a moments notice. Most of the
men were permitted all day yesterday
to come to the city but some of the
| company commanders, fearing that
| orders might be received during their
absence, thus causing delay, would
not permit their mcn to leave the com
pany streets. Each man turned in
his equipment, such as the rife, belt
| and dishes, to be inspected. After
this work has been completed and
new pieces substituted for those thai
can no longer be used, the equipment
will be returned to the men and a
final inspection will be made This
inspection occurred at 7.3O this morn
ing.
The men who are to leave with
the regiment were notified yesterday
morning at mess time. Men from
each company will be sent away.
though some companies will probab-
ly be depleted more than others.
Many applications to go have been re.
cieyed at headquarters by the adult
ant from those men who were not Sc
lected to go with the first bunch.
These men will be filled in as far as
possible in the place Of those who are
not able to go at the last minute. 1t
was the intention at first to keep all
Of headquarters company together at
the Post, but so many of the men
have signified a desire to go that
three have already been released
The hospital corps and band will also
be retained. Many rumors are in cir
culation about the final disposition OF
the men who will be left behind, but
no definite information has yet been
received concerning them.
Among the visitors at the camp
yesterday was Adjutant-General Til
lotson. His visit was unofficial but
important, nevertheless, for he
brought the commissions for some q
men who took the spring examina
tions at the Post.

Education That Counts.

From the Albuquerque journal.
American foreign trade, after
Europe ceases fighting and its
constructive faculty is reborn,
will meet keen competition. 1t
we are to hold what we have
gained abroad, and to extend our
influence, it is essential that cap
able young Americans be on the
Job. Desirable as these foreign
opportunities are to the young
men, and despite the flavor Of
adventure, it has been found ex-
ceeding difficult to get the right
kind of young men with the ne
cessary training.
In many instances manufac-
turers and exporters have train
ed their own men. Men from
colleges can be found with a
knowledge of Greek and Latin,
of higher mathematics, and a lot
of other things that go with a
college course, but they do not
know the things practical en-
ployers require. If they have
a knowledge of a modern Ian
guage, it generally is far from a
working knowledge, usually a
mere smattering.
The National City bank. of
New York, which has entered
the foreign field extensively since
the war began, was not able
from it's own staff to meet the
demand on short notice. So it
called twenty young men from
the colleges of the land.
These young men represented
nearly every nationality that has
been blended into our citizenship,
but none was especially trained
in banking. Some of them were
able to write, or at least attempt,
anything from a political criti-
cism to a philosophical essay, but
their handwriting was so bad
that they all had to take elemen-
tary penmanship. Others were
able to work out problems in in
tegral caculus, but could not
figure the interest on $100 note
for twenty-nine days at 6 1-2 per
cent. This is literally true.
Those studied in the bank 8
school in arithmetic one hour a
day three days in the week.
Seventeen of these young men
have made good, and are now
holding positions of trust in for
eign countries for which their
mother tongue fitted them lin
gually. But there were not
enough with modern language
equipment. Seven young men
are now studying the Russian
language. There is a class of
twenty-six in French, of seven
ty-two in Spanish and of six in
Portuguese, all being trained by
the bank in a school maintained
by the bank.
These young men had cultural
educations, after old college idea,
but the college had not fitted
them for practical life in any de-
gree. Left to themselves they
might have made good clerks in
stores or the brightest of them
might have sold life insurance
or taught in schools the same
subjects they had been taught in
the same way they had been
taught.
Is there no lesson in this for
the young men and for the pa
rents and teachers? Probably
none they will heed
