HIGH PRICES
Chief Statistician of United States
Chamber of Commerce Speaks
On This Subject

High prices continue without "thc
slightest reason under the sum-" A.
w. Douglas of st. Louis, chief sta
tistician of the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States, told the
representatives of 1000 American
trade organizations at the convention
of the Chamber o f Commerce of the
United States at st. Louis. He add
ed that there had already been some
decline and declared that if the law
of supply and demand were given
freedom of operation the decline
would continue until a normal level
was reached.
He brought the delegates to their
feet in a burst of applause when he
declared that the unfortunate state
to which transportation has fallen
under government control is a splen-
did example of incompetence and eX-
travagance."
I In speaking before the National
Councillors of the chamber, which
took up score of American business
problems to be submitted to the gen
eral convention later, Mr.. Douglas
pointed to the government estimate
of 900,000,000 bushels of Winter
wheat, and declared that there would
be more grain available for export
than our ships could move, and added
that there was more livestock in the
country than ever before.
After considerable debate, the Ma
tional Councillors adopted resolu-
tion advocating a budget system for
the government and recommending
that the chamber carry on cam
paign in behalf of the project in all
parts of the country.
In it's annual report the Committee
on Statistics and Standards criticised
the method of the Department of Ag-
riculture in preparing estimates
of the final yield of growing crops
and recommended that Congress be
urged to provide more liberal appro-
priation for the department.
American business is determined to
meet the needs of this nation and for
eign countries during the remainder
of the readjustment period and after,
leaders in finance and industry de-
clared, but to carry out this program,
the speakers warned, there must be
no further delay in bringing about
closest cooperation Of all branches of
finance and industry. Relations be-
tween the government and business,
too, must be such as to instill greatest
confidence, they said
With this cooperation of all forces
America will be able to Immediately
develop her foreign trade, which was
characterized by some delegates as
"a responsibility to the rest of the
world"
Obstacles and setbacks encountered
by business generally since the sign
ing of the armistice are gradually be-
ing overcome, according to reports
submitted by the various district lead
ers of the 1000 or more delegates
present. But the grain men of the

A RECORD PRODUCTION
Boys and Girls Clubs and Green
Mountain Guard Produce
Bumper Crops in 1918

! The response of individuals in pro-
duction work as encouraged by the
Boys and Girls Club Department of
the Agricultural Extension Service of
the University Of Vermont and the
Green Mountain Guard of the State
! Department of Education has been
most satisfactory as will be noted
from a summary report of the state
production just issued.
Fourteen thousand nine hundred
ninety-nine enrolled for work have
rendered a report,-of their seasons
production. The total value Of this
production is 1892, 2,S05.58, giving an
average of over $25.00 for each pro-
ducer.
The state report reveals some inter-
esting facts. Eight hundred twenty
one acres of land were titled yielding
crops valued as follows: Garden $72,-
435.94; potatoes $43, ,03650; corn $685.
41920; sugar beets $4,000; miscel-
laneous crops $24,69O.43. The value
of other materials made grown or
manufactured is: Chickens $26,983.-
so; eggs $7,218.50; pigs $20,650.S7;
calves and cows $28,902; lambs. and
sheep $3,193; maple products $14,-
407; canned products $19,346.50; sew
ed articles $4,998.75; baked materials
$685.; handicraft articles $4,98S;
general farm work wages $86,553.39.
Not until recent years have boys
and girls received encouragement,
through the schools, they should have
had to keep them interested in their
home Surroundings. During the past
two, years every boy and girl in Yer
mont has been encouraged by his
superintendent and teacher to produce
or do other worth while things. Dur
ing the past year there were but
seven towns in the entire state in
which boys and girls did not enroll
for work through the schools. In
some of these towns no schools were
maintained. Many schools had one
hundred per cent enrolment and pro-
duction.
The interest Of the boys and girls
has been aroused in doing some real
worth while things and it is hard to
find the Individual who regrets having
done his or her work. They feel well
repaid for the many hours of strenu-
Gus labor performed in carrying their
work through to the finish. They
realize that their returns have been in
proportion to the thought and labor
expended while their parents and
school officials feel that the returns
are in proportion to the encourage
nent and supervision given the indivi-
dual boy or girl.
Every boy and girl of school age
in the state is to be given the op-
portunity of enrolling at school, dur
ing the next few weeks, to carry on
certain work at home during this
year. u

Pres. Wilson's Statement
Makes 1t Impossible to
Accept or Reject
AGREEMENT is LIKELY
British and French Government:
LOYAL to Promises Made in the
Treaty of London

ROME, Tuesday, May Premier
Orlando's Government was given a
unanimous vote of confidence in the
Italian Senate last night after the
Chamber of Deputies had sustained
his course, 382 to 40, the minority be-
ing Intransigeant Socialists. A
great demonstration was accorded
him by the Senate.
He laid before the Chamber the
details of his demands for Fiume and
the Dalmatian Coast districts. He
began by saying that the information
al situation was grave at present, and
"very grave" for Italy, and it was the
duty of Italy to preserve an attitude
Of "calm and serenity" at the present
moment.
Outlining the exchanges between
himself and President Wilson, he
said that the Presidents action in
making public his statement as to
Italy's claim to Fiume had made it
impossible either to accept or reject
any proposals that might be made.
He said he believed it his duty to
come at once before the Paliament
to receive authority in carrying for
ward his work at the conference.
Until April IA, when he received
from President Wilson the American
viewpoint on Fiume, he said he
thought an agreement was probable.
T.. nf h oII q
Premier spoke of the attitude taken
at Paris by the British and French
Governments, which he said had been
loyal to promises made in the treaty
of London, which was framed in
1915. He admitted, however, that
both France and Great Britain did
not stand with Italy in her demands
for. the annexation of Fiume. He
added that they might have agreed,
in principle, to the creation of Fiume
as an independent free state.
In discussing the American memo
randum, which was handed to him on
April 16, and copies of which were
distributed among the members of
Parliament, he said:
"Inasmuch as this memorandum
denied Italy's rights over the Dalma-
tian Islands, accorded only incom-
plete liberty to Fiume and even went
so far as to break up the unity of
Istria, / told Mr.. Wilson it was alb
.solutely impossible for me to agree to
peace on the conditions indicated.
~ added that, under such condi-
tions, the Italian delegation felt it
could not continue to participate in
!. the conference with any benefit for
aothers or dignity for Italy, but said
Jwould communicate with represen-
,jatives of the Allied Powers with
which Italy was bound by special
agreements.

Farmers are Lined Up With Labor

Washington, d. C.-The One
Big Union or naturalization of
American industries?
Which? Either?
One or both will be put up to
the All-Labor conference Samuel
Gompers is expected to call early
in December. ...a-a=s
This is exactly what the radical
element in labor has worked for.
1t is the program of the extremist
leaders .si
When Gompers announced the
conference program he insisted it
was a method of getting the 112
international unions now affiliat-
ed with the A. F. of L., and the
railroad brotherhoods to discuss
present and future disputes with
capital. Naturally one of the
most important labor bodies in the
conference will be the United
Mine Workers.
For the first time in national
labor history organized farmers
will sit in conference with union
labor. This is directly in line
with the announced intention Of
the National Nonpartisan league
to bring about an economic and
political alliance with labor.
A. C. Townley, president of the
Noonpartisan league, has long
been the foremost advocate Of
such consolidation. He has
brought it about in North Dakota
and Minnesota whert the league
is strongest.
The Nonpartisan league is for
the naturalization of national in
dustries and state ownership and
operation of state industries.
