FRANCE OPENS WAR.
ON FOOD PROFITING.

PARIS, March THE French gov
eminent started an offensive against
profiteering today. with the expecta-
ton Of lowering the cost OF living in
Faris 40 per cent within a fortnight.
Fifteen large sheds, located in vari-
Gus public squares, were opened for
the sale OF government controlled
provisions. More will be opened as
soon as possible. These supplies con
sist principally of food bought from
inter-allied committees. The govern
ment will transport them from ports
to the selling places by special trains.
1t is hoped this scheme will result in
reduction of other commodities,
through indirect compression.
The model scientific ration for an
average man, as worked out by the
lnter-Allied Commission at present
costs 50 cents day in Paris. AZ cents
in New York, and 50 cents in London.
Under the new government sales sys-
tenn the cost will be only 80 cents a
day here. If the Paris experiment is
successful. food will be sent to other
towns, where it will be retailed either
by the municipalities or approved
subject to state control.
The ministry of food supplies also is
arranging a system OF women's res
taurants in Paris. capable of serving
100000 meals a day. Charges will be
reduced 80 per cent by obtaining the
supplies direct from the
government. Three hundred thou
sand tons OF provisions have been
brought to Paris within the last FIVE
days.
Herbert Hoover has placed at the
disposal OF the ministry information
obtained by the United States Food
which is said to have
proven helpful in forming plans for
the new system

CURRENT COMMENT
Vermont Farms That Are on the Market

The agricultural department has been
trying to learn what farms in Vermont
are for sale in order to describe them in
a booklet to be widely distributed. 1t
seems that the listers have been asking
the farmers if their property was for
sale and the farmers for fear that the
selling price of the farm might be asked
and as result the assessed valuation of
it lacked up have been inclined to be
reticent There really ought not to be
any difference between the selling price
of any real estate and It's value assessed
for taxes, but there often is great
difference. However, there has been in
this case no intention to get the farmers
to disclose information that would lead
to their increased taxation. II has sim
ply been the desire Of the state com.
missioner of agriculture to give the
farmers whose property is for sale con-
siderable valuable advertising. The COM
missioner is in a position to act as sell
ing agent for Vermont real estate or at
least TO bring would-be sellers and pros
pective buyers gether.-Rutland News.

will endeavor to be worthy of "the mag
niticent tack assigned to her in the flu
ture." That idea of the moral capital of
the world is in fine harmony with the
conception of the league itself as un.
ion of the worlds peace-loving nations
for the attainment of the highest moral
ends.
Much has been said Of the physical
force which might have to be used
against some recalcitrant government,
but it is in moral force commanding the
respect of the world that the real power
of the league will consist. The Genevans
are asked to demonstrate their "grati-
tude TO Him who holds the nations in
His hands and who has guided them
10 an achievement that is without ex.
ample in the annals of the world and to
greet with reclamation the dawn Of
this newly born era of far.reaching re-
construction" That is fitting spirit in
which to receive the league as it comes
upon the scene Of its labors. If it has
imperfections they win soon enough
show themselves as things to be RENE

William Hohenzollern is reported re-
Gently to have stated that he cared moth
ing about the results of the peace treaty
conference other than to know about his
own status. In other words, he cares
nothing for the welfare of the seventy
odd millions of'his former subjects whom
he led into the terrible confct--his only
concern is TO save his own precious skin
from the hand of justice. That attitude
of mind represents quite truly the whole
career of the former kaiser of Germany.
He may have helped his subjects along
certain lines but the whole purpose back
of the seeming kindness was to increase
his own power, to make himself more
wealthy and to make his name stand
forth in the worlds history as the Great
| Am. Now in defeat and disgrace, the
same characteristics stand forth prom.
inently, shutting off all decent human
considerations. William Hohenzollern is

The time was when the United States
would have been glad to sell her obsolete
battleshps TO some small nations which
possessed seacoast and desire to keep
up naval pretensions, and such sale
brought far greater returns than the
process of reducing the fighting machines
to junk. With the change of sentiment
following the war there has come new
feeling in regard to the disposal of war
ships after the U. S. navy has finished
with them, that feeling being that no
other nation should be assisted, be it
ever so little, in maintaining warlike
attitude through the requirement of our
battleships. That feeling necessitates
the reduction of the warships as they
are taken out of the active ranks OF the
naval armament Therefore, plans are
being made TO Junk" IL vessels which
are considered as having passed their
usefulness to the United States navy.

Secretary Lanes project for reclaim
ing swamp land for occupancy by Amer
lean soldiers and sailors discharged from
service is not making great Roadway in
all parts of the United States, one rea-
son being, perhaps, that there is so much
vacant and workable land already avail
able that people cannot see the wisdom
of spending an immense sum of money
to reclaim land now covered with water
The natural course of action would seem
to be to fill up the land already avail.
able and, that done, to turn attention
to the swamp land. But there is so much
land of the former nature that it is not
probable there viii be a serious need for
retaining the swamp land for long
time to come.

So slight thing as a butterfly caused
an automobile wreck on Vermont road
recently, in which several persons were
badly shaken up. The butterfly flew
into the face of the chauffeur and caused
him to lose control of the car, the vehicle
going off the road and being suspended
in dangerous position. Vermont roads
cannot be blamed in this instance be-
cause it would have needed l0.acre
field for momentarily blinded chauffeur
to run his car safely. But car going at
moderate rate of speed might perhaps
have been stopped on Vermont high

resort to the brakes.
