Governor elect Clement has expressed

the people of Vermont are ready to meet
him more than halfway in this direction.

problem how to provide the fund for the
payment Of our troops and other ex.
penses growing out Of the war looms
large.
Another puzzle the conflict has indi-
rectly brought up is the strengthening OF
bridges and the adoption of methods OF
construction of roads that viii meet the
demands of heavier auto-trlIck traffic,
and make good the ravages Of tha past
two years Of neglect of our highways.
These two items of expense alone would

The estimate of state financial needs
for the coming two years made by the

sums, while new claimants upon the

The American Terms.

Not yet has the peace conference as
sembled in Paris, but the chaf is never
theless in active process of being sifted
out of the various peace propositions.
For this reason, it is not surprising to see
public attention at the French capital
centering itself on the terms clearly out
lined by Senator Lodge in his speech be-
fore the Senate on Aug. % last. Mr. Lau-
renee Hills, the correspondent of the New
York Sun with the Wilson party, cables
from Paris that attention is now focused
upon the principles enunciated by Mr.
Lodge, not only because they are in
agreement with the necessities Of the
case, but because they represent the view
which will be dominant in the United
States Senate when it devolves upon that
body to ratify the treaty of peace. The
United States, it is needless to say, can
never be a participant in a treaty which
is not approved by two-thirds of the
Senate. And as peace is bound to be
made, it will be made without the par
ticipation of the United States if the
agreement reached is not satisfactory to
that two-thirds majority. In other words,
all formal American participation in the
peace conference is vain unless in its
terms 1t is satisfactory to the Senate
1t is natural, therefore, since this condi-
ton is well known abroad, that the Lodge
terms should center public attention in
Paris at the present time, especially as
there is great satisfaction with their sub.
stantial agreement with the necessary
demands of Great Britain, France, Italy
and Belgium.
Surely our European associates in the
war are in hearty agreement with Sena-
tor Lodges declaration that there must
be compensation for the ravage of the
war, and that "our part and our business
is to put Germany in a position where
she can do no more harm in the future to
the rest of the world Unless we advise
this" said the senior senator from Mas
sachusetts, Eve shall have fought in
vaini Congress and the president had no
right to declare war unless they meant
to do precisely this thing; nothing less
than this would justify our action, The
clearness of such an utterance as this ap-
peals strongly to the logical French
mind the words, moreover, meet the
French nations demand The satisfaction
of this demand under Senator Lodges
principles, stands in front of all leagues
Of nations or other arrangements of the
future when Germany is beaten to her
knees and the world is made safe by the
arrangement which ] have suggested
the senator said, then, and not before,
we shall have the just and righteous
peace for which we fought"
Here is an American platform on which
entente Europe is ready to stand, and it
is becoming evident that it is unwilling
to stand on any other.-Boston Tran

Where Does Vermont Come In7
The question of interest to the people
of Vermont is, How does Vermont fit
into the plan of Secretary Lane? The
plan outlined in the secretary's report
contemplates that the federal govern
ment and the state governments, in CO.
operation, win purchase tracts Of waste
land in 5000 acres or more, including
swamps which need drainage, cut-oyer
lands and arid tracts which need recla-
nation; that these tracts will be re-
claimed and made into small farms so
that soldiers may be colonized thereon,
having about 100 farms in each colony.
II was the opinion Of the Vermont com.
mittee, and so communicated to the fed
eral authorities, that we have no tracts
of 5000 acres or more in one block which
would led themselves readily to this plan
of the secretary, but that Vermont does
offer to the returning soldier the best
possible opportunity for acquiring a
home on the land.
During the first year of the war, a cen
sus was taken OF two blocks of six towns
each in two sections of the state, one be-
ing located in the Champlain valley and
the other in a more hilly section. The
question was asked of each farmer, rs
your farm for sale?" An average Of 20
per cent replied in the affirmative This
illustrates that we have in the state
many farms which are on the market.
An investigation has shown that the
prices of these farms win not exceed, in
many cases, what it would cost to re-
place the buildings now built. Therefore,
the returning soldiers may find in Yer.
mont an opportunity to acquire farm
ready to occupy, with land cleared, which
may be bought for less money than II
would cost under present conditions TO
make but portion Of the improvements
which have already been made.
The committee believes that the best
procedure for Vermont is to take a cen
sus Of the farms which we have for sale
preferably through the listers next April
and to have the agricultural department
investigate such farms and ascertain
such facts about them as prospective
purchasers would desire to know Then
the publicity department of the state
should advertise these farms in such a
way that they will be brought to the
attention Of the returning soldier and
such assistance in the way of advice on
the part of the state should be given to
the returning soldier so that he may Sc
cure a good title to his land and SO that
he will be located in such a way that
there will be a possibility for him to
succeed,
Not only should this opportunity ap.
peal to returning soldiers, but also Ia
young farmers in the West, where land
has now reached a very high price. Land
in Iowa now sells for from $50 TO $500
per acre. Land in Vermont can be
bought for much less, yet an acre Of po-
tatoes in 1918 WAS worth $1,000 in Yer
mont and but S05.76 in Iowa; an acre Of
oats was worth 5000 in Vermont and
but S26SS in Iowa; an acre of barley
was worth S4743 in Vermont and but
S2678 in Iowa! an acre of corn was
worth $6460 in Vermont and but S439z
in Iowa, although Iowa is located in the
