Love, secretary Of foreign missions
declares, "but we at home have not
supported them as we ought with help,

them to do larger work in every way
The smallness of the work we have
done already can be realized when we
look at the vast number of people who
have not been reached in the foreign
fields we are occupying today. China,
for instance, has a population four
times that of the United States, or one
fourth the population of the entire
world, and our force there consists of
only 65 men, 81 married women, 49,
unmarried women, 81 ordained natives

Japan, which has half as many people
as the United States, is being served
by men, 8 married women, 3 unmar

THE PROHIBITION DECISION.

The nub of the opinion handed down
by the United States supreme court up
holding the wartime prohibition law
lies in the Interpretation whether war
has nominally ceased and peace has
been proclaimed. Wartim prohibition
was to run during the period Of the
war Does the fact of the cessation of
the clash of arms constitute the ending
of war? Or does the ratification Of the
treaty of peace by the contending
forces constitute the ending of the war,
and coupled with it perhaps an execu-
tive proclamation of peace. The con.
tending armies no longer clash and
have in large part been demobilized
into pursuits of peace; nayies as to
their personnel are reduced to more
nearly peace time basis; other agen-
cies of warfare have been sheathed
Yet there has been no formal ratifica
ton of peace by the opposing nations,
much less an official acquieseence by
terms of the treaty of Versailles. Nom.
inally, the nations are still at war
More than that, the government Of the
United States is exercising nearly all
the functions which it assumed at the
outset of the war and which were con
sidered necessary to the prosecution of
the war. There has been no ratifica-
ton, no proclamation, no surrender of
the great wartime prerogatiyes; but,
on the other hand, there has been an
almost complete rehabilitation of the
armed forces of the United States al
belt some detachments of the army are
still kept in German occupied territory
and in Silesia. The weight of the con.
ditions seems, therefore, to bear out
the contention that the United States
government is still in the phases Incl
dent to war 1t is still at war with
Germany, Hence, the wartime prohi-
bition law is still effective and viii re-
main so until the United States Senate
shall ratify the treaty of peace and the
government shall relinquish its major
war functions, or until constitutional
prohibition comes into operation in the
first month of 1920. In handing down
its decision on the wartime prohibit
ton law the supreme court of the
United States follows the obvious in.
depreciation OF the law as taken in con.
junction with actual conditions.

In at least two instances recently we
have noted that complaint has been
made in Vermont municipalities that
the municipal officials were not utiliz-
ing the equipment at their disposal but
we're going out and hiring equipment of
private parties while their own rested
idle. We refer to horses. In the case
of Brattleboro the village teams were
not being worked at all while the Sc
lectmen hired two teams at the rate of
SIS day; and at the same time the
men who were engaged to handle the
municipal teams were not employed,
There may, OF course, be some reason
why the municipal horses were not
used on municipal work which would
explain the action of the officials; but
reasonable business prudence would
seem to demand that municipal horses
be used wherever possible, the condi-
tions being right. As is well known,
horses "eat their heads off" when not
put to some gainful work, and it doesn't
take long to run up big bill for their
food The only salvation is to keep
them at work whenever possible, 1t is
a thing like failure to keep municipal
horses at work that is running up the
municipal cost of living in many com
munity.

John D. Wheeler Died in Windsor,
Where He Had Been Two Years.
John d. Wheeler died suddenly Sun
day in Windsor, where he had worked
the last two years. He was nearly a
lifelong resident of this town, and the
news of his death came as shock to
his many friends. With Mrs. Wheeler,
he was here at Thanksgiving, For some
days before his death he had not felt
as well as usual, but continued to work.
He is survived by his wife, who was
Bessie Mudgett of this town, and by a
son, Gardner Wheeler of New York.
His first wife was daughter of the
late d, B. Topper She died about 20
years ago, During the granite period
Mr., Wheeler sold his farm, now owned

THE PACKERS AND
REFRIGERATOR CARS

Whether refrigerator cars should be
owned by the railroads or by the pack.
ers--a point to be determined by leg.
islation now pending in Washington
may seem TO be a question rather re.
mote from the interests of the average
person. But, inasmuch as these "iee
boxes on wheels, as one of the pack.
ers terms them, are the cOnyeyances
which bring our beefsteak to town, we
may assume that we have a certain
concern about them. If they have any.
thing to do with the price OF the beef
steak our concern is deep one.
1t is maintained by some that these
cars give the packers who now own
them an unfair advantage over com
petitors. This is stoutly denied by the
packers, who offer as proof the fact
that they pay the same freight rates
as any shipper; and they assert that
the only advantage they enjoy is In
being able to get enough cars for their
needs by furnishing them themselves
instead of depending upon the rail.
roads to do so. In this they are backed
up by a report of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, made after an in
vestigation of all privately owned
cars, to the effect that there were no
unfair practices and that a radical
change would adversely affect both
shippers and the public.
While not opposing, in principle,
railroad ownership of refrigerator
cars, the packers maintain that there
are not enough of these cars to 20
around and that the legislation In
question makes no provision for insur-
ing that the railroads shall furnish
them in sufficient number. On the
other hand, to pool their cars and take
chances of getting what happened to
be available, would seriously handi-
cap the distribution of their perishable
meat products. The stream of ship
ments from the packing plants would
be blocked, which in turn would block
the buying of live stock, and the in
NSeAJ5 "AhNA 40 IouhuCu Ou a DdSlS VI
rapid distribution, would be badly
muddled. s.
In these contentious pro and con,
there are three parties whose interests
are at stake-the packers, their COM
petitors and the public. Only one of
these parties could gain possible ad-
vantage if the packers, cars were
taken away from them, viz, the pack
ers' competitors. The cars are now
admittedly handled on an economic
and efficient basis, and no change Is
justified unless unfairness is definitely
and absolutely proved-which would
be i'll absolute contradiction to the re-
port that the Interstate Commerce
Commission has. already rendered on
the subject. The public would pay the
bill for inefficiency in the packing in
dustry, and it has no desire to pay thi.
bill in order to help few of the pael
ers competitors.
