Frank ereene,s Remarks.

IN his tAlk at tlo IHectlu5 VI t"N
Vermont Press association, Congress
man Frank L. Greene gave one OF his
characteristic illustrations of the ma
tional situation He said that In col
onial times, when the community
was threatened by enemies, the peo'
ple left their farms and homes and
brought into the block-house their
guns, bullets, powder-homs and bags
of meal and provisions and held them
all in common until the common en-
envy had been subdued. So, during
the war the people of the United
States held practically every resource
OF the nation in common against the
common enemy of all--Germany ana
her allies .N F
when the enemy was snbdued,
said the speaker, "The Pilgrim Faith
ers went back to their farms and their
homes and held them jealousy apart
and for, their own use. and it was very
unhealthy business for any one to un,
dertake to encroach thereon.

lnle to constitutional government, take

fefs conferred on the president and
other officials and get back on nor
NAL basis
II hope to see public utilities re-
turned to the public just as soon as
possible"
+ The speaker said this would be an
issue in the new Congress-. and II
would necessarily be fought out OH
partisan lines. as that is the only
way this country can handle a ma
tional issue. We have party govern
mont and party government means
war to the knife so that public issues
can be clearly defined and public re.
sponsibility definitely placed.
Were going after them" said the
speaker in conclusion, "iust as Ethan
Allen and his boys went after the
Workers. and wero going to put the
beech seal to them before we get
done" fN
Greene made another apt allusion
ITO what might Happen If the United
States entered league Of nations.

he, "becausc the constitution, which
