- Burlington Heads List.

Burlington, Vt, June 30.-John Barleycorn was officially counted out in Burlington Saturday night, the Yer mont city being probably the first wet place in the United States to go bone dry under war time prohibition. While it would have gone dry anyway at 10 o'clock tonight, the fact that a circus decided to come here the last day of the present month was responsible for the Burlington dealers closing their doors one day sooner than the other wet cities of the country.
 Saturday night was a big one here for the adherents of the old boy who has been on the front page for so long and so often, the boys packing wet goods into every conceivable space in order to stock up for the long drouth.
 While there was a large trade, it was at the same time noticeable that none of the scenes that many of the other cities of the country went through were in evidence here. There was no disorder and but little more drunkenness than was usual on a Sat urday night

LEAGUE IS NEEDED,
 SEN. GERRY THINKS
Rhode Island Democrat Says it is Necessary to Protect World From
 Future Aggressions.

Washington, June 30.-Describing the League of Nations as a worka ble plan ito marshal the civilized nations against such acts of aggression as Germany and Austria perpetrated in this war" Senator Gerry, democrat, of Rhode Island, told the senate to- day that acceptance of the league covenant was an absolute necessity to protect American rights and preserve civilization during the reconstruction period.
 Predicating his argument upon ob servation during a visit to England, France and Belgium, he said, the peo- pie of Europe were pinning hope of a better era upon a faith that the Unit ed States would take the lead in a league to prevent war. He analysed the league covenant and declared it contained nothing subverting Ameri ican policies.'
 "'The real question:" said MT. Ger rv. lis whether we believe that it is better for the United States to have a say n European matters and thus try to prevent another horrible war or to keep our hands off and wait until the world is afame and then endeavor to assert our might to protect our rights. Tn one case we have hand in shap- ing the destinieS of mankind. In the other we suffer the consequences that are likely to come from an uncontrol- liable situation in Europe
