VICTIM OF SHELL
SHOCK FOUND IN
VERMONT CAMP
Lieut.. Stuart Missing Since
Jan. IS, Located at
East Mountain

MANCHESTER, Vt, Aug. 5-Lieut
William H. Stuart, son of Duncan
Stuart of Oneonta, N. Y, and Man
chester, VT, was found yesterday
afternoon at one of the Logging camps
of the Rich Lumber company on the
East Mountain, after a search extend
ing over seven months.
Lieut. Stuart returned to New York
city from service in France on Jan.
18. He had left friend saying that
he would go to Oneonta the next day
and take the family by surprise.
A few weeks later his father re-
ceived official notice of his discharge
from Army service, which was his
first intimation that his son was in
this country. Exhaustive search by
police and detective forces of New
York city accomplished nothing and
he had been given up for lost for
some time.
A Spiritualist in Pownal, VT, con-
suited frequently by the father, Dun
can Stuart, insisted that the boy
would be found at the lumber camps.
While his father had little faith in
the statement, he had kept his eye out
at his work as ranger on the noun
tain. Yesterday the father found the
boy at one of the camps, but in an
unbalanced mental condition.
Young Stuart showed some recog-
nition of his father. The first sup
position of serious case of shell
shock is verified, but proper treatment
will probably bring sound mental
condition. VI
He has been and is still under the
hallucination that the Government is
looking for him and has been afraid
to show himself.
Previous to coming to this vicinity
he worked for two months at log.
Ping camp in New York state, and
had been to Wanakena, where the
Ric; Lumber company formerly car.
ried on operations.

proposal before Congress tomorrow.
at Marks" says the statement,
"the step by which organized labor
passes from demands for wage in
creases to demands that the system of
profits in industry be overhauled."
Briefly, labor's plan demands:
THAT private capital be elimated
from the railroads.
2-That the private owners receive
for them government bonds with a
fixed interest return for every honest
dollar that they have invested"
3-That the tri-partite control,
heretofore referred to, be established,
in corporations which shall lease the
roads, and in which the public, the
operating arrangements and labor
shall be represented equally.
4-That the pubic, the operators
and the wage earners share equally all
revenue in excess of the guarantee to
private capital, by granting to the
operators and the employees one-half
the savings which are expected to be
made by such a preferred organiza-
ton, and to the public the other half
as consumes, either by increasing
service without adding costs or by re-
ducng costs.
"This role originates with labor,
says the statement, "because labor
happens to have firm organizations
through which it may become articul-
ate"
The trainmen are not represented
in the statement. because w. G. Lee,
president of the brotherhood, was out
of the city, but it was said that they
join in it.
