That Great Spy Army.

For our part we do not believe that
even the German government would be
dull enough to maintain paid army
of 10000 spies in the United States,
as recent sensational reports would have
it. That any government should go to
the trouble and expense of maintaining
costly secret service in this country
is ineoneeivable in view of the fact that
all anybody need do to inform himself
regarding our military and naval 'se-
crets" is read the papers and listen to
the statements of our experts before
congressional committees.
That ther has been an organized leu
tonic effort to destroy munition works
here we must believe from the evidence
of the San Francisco convictions. But
that the paid army of bombsters ag-
gregated 10000 men we very much doubt.
II so, its efficiency was not up TO the
Prussian standard. certainly. Any for
eign representative who would deem it
necessary to maintain a complex spy
system in America should be, like a
Japanese aviator who would consider it
worth while risking his neck for birds
eye views of the New York harbor forts,
committed to an institution for the fee
hleminded, not to a prison,-New York

Selling Price of Newspapers.

The one-cent papers of the country are
pretty generally raising their price to
two cents. One after another is falling
into line. Only two papers in Vermont
are still selling for one cent, and these
are the Barre Daily Times and the Mont
pelier Argus. We make the prediction
at least one of these will 90 to two cents
pretty soon. Newspapers and printing
are about the only two things that have
withstood the attack so far. The trouble
seems to be to keep track of the price of
white paper for more than one consecu-
tive day. More than 800 weekly papers
in the country have suspended. Perhaps
some of them ought to. In this connec-
ton the Publishers Auxiliary says "that
no institution has been more loyal to
local interests through thick and thin
than the country newspapers; and it's a
poor community that does not stand by
its best friend; probably some of the
papers stopped deserved to, but many of
them did not, and their demise is due to
the fact that they are published in dead
communities. A live newspaper makes
live town, and vice versa" Mortified

Victim of Pneumonia.

Burlington, Feb. l0.--Mrs. Augusta G.
M. Styles, widow of George w. Styles,
died in her Doth year yesterday at her
home on North Winooski avenue of penu-
monia, following a fall.
Mrs. STYLES was born in Burlington
in September, 1927. Her wonderful vi
tally was not impaired until the acct
dent. She, up to the time, was able to
read, and retained her hearing, and was
able to be about the house and even to
go out on the street.
Mrs. Styles was the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Albert and Almira tBlish)
Aubrey At the time of her birth,
North Prospect street was known as
Gaugh street and her family for many
years resided at the head of Brookes
avenue.
Mrs. Styles is survived by her son,
Eugene NJ. Styles of w. H. Zottman &
Co., brother, James Madison Aubrey
of Los Angeles, Cal, and grandson,
Humphrey Styles of Boston, Mass.
The funeral, which will be private win
be held at 2 p M, Sunday at the resi-
dence.

England's Chance to Win Support By
Granting Home Rule.

British statesmen make much Of the
moral support given to the allies by our
severance of diplomatic relations with
Germany, but the British Parliament,
which reopened yesterday, has in its pow
er to gain far greater moral support BY
granting home rule for Ireland without
delay.
The British Tory leaders have made
many eloquent appeals to the English
people to sacrifice everything for victory
and it is high time that they made this
concession themselves.
English publicists say that if Lloyd
George cannot bring about home rule no
British statesman can. Now is the time.
To grant justice to Ireland would be
worth more than many victories on the
Somme. 1t would bring to the support
of the United Kingdom millions of neu
trails who now cannot forget the dark
record of the Tories and who cannot be-
lieve we'll of them until that stain of
Irish injustice is wiped out. If the To-
ries will not grant justice to the Irish in
a time of great stress, when England
needs all the support she can get, it is
hard to see any rosy prospect for ireland
after the war.-Boston Globe.

Prof. Appelmann's Resignation.

The resignation of Professor Appel
mann from the faculty of the University
of Vermont, was timely to put it mildly,
and the university ought to be thankful
that such fitting opportunity for the
severance of the academic connection
presented itself. The intercepted CORE
spondence between Professor Appelmann
and a prominent German, as commented
upon by The Outlook some time ago,
weighed heavily on the professors use
fulness and those have not been lacking
who have wondered how the university
was to justify itself in retaining him as
a member of the faculty. The chances
are about 100000 to that, had the
cases been reversed and an American
professor in a German college had been
detected comforting with Colonel House,
for instance, on what his attitude and
that of his fellow Americans in the en-
pire on a matter closely coneneted with
war should be, the chances are that in
such reversion of the circumstances he
would not have received the considera-
ton that has been accorded him here
