In order 10 get into its stride and
keep its step with past sessions the
Vermont Legislature must, during the

week on Monday evening, instead o.
Tuesday morning as has been the case
during the last two weeks it win be
possible TO get down TO business
quicker as the greater part Of the
legislatures will undoubtedly get back

has been once and for all knocked in
the head. Governor Coolidge has issued
a proclamation in which he says that
the act of the policemen in %relinquish-
ing their posts 20 the enemy was nothing
short of treason and he calls upon the
citizens of the Commonwealth to stand
by him in the execution of his oath of
office. by supporting the authority of
the Govt. and resisting all assaults upon
it. In part he also says, There is an
obligation inescapable and no less solemn
to resist all those who do not support the
Govt. The authority of the Common
wealth cannot be inundated or coerced.
1t cannot be compromised. The main
tenance Of the PUBLIC security, in the
hands Of a. body Of men who have at
tempted to. destroy would be to float
Che sovereignty of the laws the people
nav made. 1t is M duty to resist any
such proposal. those who would counsel
it join hands with those whose acts nave
threatened to destroy the Govt. There
is no middle ground. Every attempt to
prevent the formation Of a new police
force is a blow at the Govt. That way
treason lies. No man has a right to place
MS own ease or convenience, or the OPP
~portunity OF making money, above his
duty to the State
