Horse Racers Worried.

New Orleans, La, March 0.-Sports
men today were disturbed over the
latest developments in the horse race
fight here. Many thought the state
would step in and put an end to the
game or at least regulate the sport and
limit the number of racing days. The
introduction of pari mutuel machines
is probable.
Following the filing of affidavits
yesterday against the Businessmen's
Racing association, which coRducts the
meet here, charging the operation of
hand books, it was announced tomorrow
two new tracks would be built across
the river in Jefferson Parish. The JEFF
ferson Fair association plans to con
duct a meet across the river from
December 10 to New Years day. The
Louisiana Stock association will run
from Thanksgiving Day until March
%, 1918, if plans do not go astray.

BLAME KITCHENER FOR
OARDANELLES FIASCO
Unnecessary Delay On His
Part Responsible for
Failure

London, March 9-Upon the late
Lord Kitchener, England's idol and the
| early war counsel was fixed the blame
| yesterday for England's Dardanelles
/ expedition. 4 special investigation
commission, appointed in response to
| parliamentary inquiries and complaints,
, as to the costly experiment against
Turkey, made this report today.
"AlthOugh the main object of the
expedition was not attained - the re-
| port concluded, "certain important
| political advantages were secured by
the expedition. Whether these were
worth the loss of life and treasure in
volved must always remain matter
of opinion"
Discussing the responsibility for the
step, the report adiudged Lord Kitch-
ener responsible for three weeks delay
in despatching troops to the Dardanel-
les, thereby "gravely compromising the
probability of success.
The commission held also that Kitch-
ener did not sufficiently utilize the
services of the general staff, resulting
in confusion and lack of efficiency"
Censure was expressed at the war
council S failure. to held a meeting be-
tween March 10 and May II, 1915, and
discussed Winston Churchil's s advoca-
cy, as first lord Of the admiralty, for
purely naval eXpeditionary forces.
"Lofd Kitchener" the report con
tinued, "favored a purely naval at
tack. The commissioners think the
first lord of the admiralty (then
ChurchilD the premier (then Asquith)
and other councillors, should have re-
quircd the naval advisers to submit
clearly expressed views regarding the
practicability of the plan. "
The report concludes they were not
| Justified in reaching Il decision on the
Dardanelles plan without much full
! Ter investigation. y

LES DARCY MUST MEET
GIBBONS OR NO ONE
His DOdging Real Scraps Has
Permanently Shut Him Out
of New York
By H. G. Hamilton,

Omitted Press staff Correspoudcrt.)
New York, March 9.-Today may
bring forth the announcement from
heclled Les Darcy that he intends liv-
ing up to the agreement signed for him
by Tim O'Sullivan, calling for ten
round bout the night of April 10th
with Mike Gibbons in Milwaukee.
Eddie Kane, manager of the st. Paul
phantom, expected to make special
trip to Goshen, y. y. where Darcy is
alternating, and get the final word
from him.
Les having been stopped in his en-
counter with Governor Whitman 5 de
termination to prevent Darcy's appear
ance in a New York ring, was a sad
dened Young man today. His inten-
ton to show New York what a scrap
per he is has been laid away for the
time being, and he is preparing to
make a study of time tables regarding
trains that will carry him to the free
and untrammeled west.
It was the logical thing for the Aus
tralian to do. If he had agreed long
ago to meeting with some high class
boxer instead of picking out Al Me
Coy all the wailing and -whooping that
has sprung up over his probable APP
pearance never would have been
heard. 1t is probable that Governor
Whitman never would have seen it
brought out forcibly enough to urge
him to action.
1t is now up to the pugilist himself.
He can 90 west and fight Mike Glib
bons, or he can stay here and remain
idle.

TEUTON SHIPS READY SOON.
Seven in New York and Five on Pacific
Coast Will Be in Government Service.

Washington, April 26--Twelve of the
seized German merchant ships will be
ready for service in little more than a
week, the shipping board reported yes
terday to the treasury department. Leg
islation pending would empower the
shipping board either to lease the yes
sells or to operate them Indications
point to their operation by the shipping
board.
Seven of the ships about ready for
service are at New York, and the others
are on the Pacific coast Repairs are
being rushed on all ships except those
at Honolulu and the Naterland at New
York. Those at Honolulu will be towed
to the Pacific coast for docking. The
Vaterland is too large for any Amer
can drYdock, and before being made
ready for sea would have to be towed to
Balboa.
Removal of ships from the coastwise
trade to transatlantic service was TAX
en- up yesterday at conference OF ship
ping men with the shipping board and
the shipping committee Of the council
OF national defense. A number of ships
probably will be taken off coastwise
and put TO carrying food
for the allies.

Some Salaries and Others.

Editor, Barre Daily Times: | was
very glad to notice in the letters to the
editor that my friend, Mr.. Jersey, is
still alive and kicking, and the best of
it is, he generally kicks in the right di-
rection. He also fsvors tax exemption
for new industries and in this matter
Mr.. Hersey is right. Barre has always
refused this inducement which other cit
les and town will gladly offer.
Mr.. Hersey thinks our city clerk should
be well paid for his services, and all
commissions should go into the city
treasury, and | think so too. That is
the way they do in Montpelier and other
places.
/ notice the aldermen have several
times increased the wages of our high
salaried officials, but they don't seem TO
remember the men with small pay and
large families, who are just as much af-
fected by the high cost of living as the
men with high salaries and small fam
lies And why they don't remember is
something / don't understand. Alder
men ere supposed TO be human beings,
but are they! Well, they are if they're
born right.

OUR FINANCIAL AID TO THE
ALLIES.

At first thought it might seem UNI
fair discrimination for the United States
government to award its first loan OF the
81 ,000,000,000 allotment to the richest
nation among the entente allies, but
when it is considered that Great Britain
has been financing the entente allies to a
great extent for many months the OBJ
lection to the action of the American
government fades away. Great Britain
has been carrying tremendous financial
burden for long time, several of the
smaller nations grouped on her side be-
ing well-nigh helpless to keep up their
own governments, let alone continuing
hostilities. To keep certain degree OF
vigor coursing through the arteries OF
those countries has been the work Of the
British government, and that govern
ment has done the work without a within
per so far as the world has been permit
ted to know Great Britain has stood as
the backbone of the entente allies, how
ever much credit we may give France
for actual fighting valor; and had it not
been for the sturdy and indomitable spir-
it of the British nation the Prussian
menace would long before this have &C
its purpose of trampling the
smaller nations completely under foot.
So while the close sympathy of the Unit |
ed States may go out to France and 9th |
er nations fighting for the freedom Of
the peoples of the earth, we must recog |
nize our first obligation to Great Britain |
for bearing the financial burden so splen- |
didly. In due time other loans will be
made, presumably direct ~ the nations
which are now aligned with u.s. and, in
deed, it would not be surprising were a
considerable part of the 5000, 000,0 900 just |
loaned to Great Britain to go to assist |
some crippled ally. As for Russia, it
would be well for the United States TO
assure itself of conditions there before
placing a large sum to the credit OF
that beleaguered and embattled country,
both from without and from within. Rus
ia should be asked TO give full assurance
# righteous purpose both at home and
abroad before being entrusted with a
vast loan. The United States stands
-eady to help Russia just as soon as such
assurance is given.

a TRUE SHOT.

1t was eminently fitting that the first
successful shot by the United States in
the war with Germany should have been
directed against that agency which was
the direct means Of bringing the United
States into the great struggle. The Ger
man submarine has been the bone of con-
| tention between Germany and the United
States ever since the dastardly attack on
the Lusitania, as the result of which one
thousand lives of n-combatants-'of
which more than one hundred were
Americans---were sacrificed to the blood
lust of the Prussian military regime.
Such tremendous sacrifice was lightly
passed over by German apologists as
measure of expediency. Since that time
the German submarine has been the
agency which famed the spirit of hostil-
ity against Germany as time after time
that agency was used for Illegal purposes
against neutral shipping. The United
States was great sufferer from those
illegal practices until patience ceased to
be virtue and action became compel
ling necessity. The German submarine
caused our war In fact the German
submarine carried on war against the
United States for months which length
ened into years. The atrocities commit
ted by those fiendish agencies invited re-
taliation. And that retaliation is at
hand The first submarine has fallen be- |
fore the aim of good American gunnery, |
if the reports made by Capt. Rice of the |
American armed steamer Mongolia are
borne out by the facts. There has been
some skepticism about the ability of
merchant ship to perform this much de- i
sired feat; but the indications in the
encounters between the Mongolia and
the submarine in British waters seem
to point to the success of the steamship.
There are many scores to be wiped out
yet.

40 North Main ST

is enormously high, and in order TO win
the prize, must be made lower. Though
exempt from it few years, that time
passes quickly, and the party coming
here is up against bad proposition.
The party, of course, would fully real
i've this in advance, and, knowing other
cities have a much lower tax rate. while
offering the same exemption, would, of
them rather than in Barre.
Therefore, at the city meeting Friday
evening, it would seem wise and neces-
sary to instruct the city council to make
the tax rate this year much lower than
usual, not TO exceed, say, Sl.75, and not
TO build the proposed bridge over Jail
branch, nor to lay any granite paving,
but so TO adjust all current expenses as
easily to pay them with the income
from the lower tax rate and other souces.

A comparatively small town, Williams
town has done remarkably well to send
nine young men into the United States
navy since the declaration of a state of
war with Germany. Plainfeld, with a
slightly lesser contribution, also has come
to the front. Should the PA other towns
and cities of the state do as'well in pro-
portion, Vermont's quota in the navy
would be almost doubled. Vermont's
smaller communities are far outstripping
the large towns and cities in filing up
the states quota.

in view of the fact that their service

There is wide discrepancy between
the British and German official reports
of the results of the air battles over the
western front on Monday-so wide, in
fact, that it is difficult to draw a happy
medium with any assurance of hitting

be inclined TO doubt the British report
that British aviators could account for
40 German airplanes and lose but two

The note which the Spanish govern
ment has sent to Germany, protesting
against the submarine attacks on Span
ish shipping, cannot be considered a
virile' statement. much less a threat To
say that Germany need not be aston
ished" if Spain takes up reprisal because
OF the submarine attacks. which, by the
way, is the strongest utterance in the
note, is not calculated to strike terror,
or even apprehension, in the hinty heart
of the Prussian autocracy. Much rather
is IL likely to arouse the disabilities of
the gentlemen who are directing the
destinies of the German empire, for they
have much more serious business at hand
than listening to such an effeminate
document The whole tone of the note
is such as to dissipate any belief that
Spain has any really serious intentions
Of entering the conflict against the Prus-
sian government OF the German nation
or even of srming her merchant ships for
the purpose Of repelling attack. Spain
is not only neutral but it is neuter
