THE WILSON PROGRAM
(The Burlington NeWs)

L Ilc Dtl liIlS VII ANCN5J
Astute politicians see in the Will
sonian program of "hoart to heart
talk to the people of the country on
the League of Nations the first move
to make Woodrow Wilson a candi-
date for the presidency again next
year.
APPARENTLY the proposition is to link
the League of Nations up with the
Democratic party; to blame the Re
publcans if it does not eventuate,
and to endeavor to create an impress
sion if it does that the Democrats
should function at Washington lest
in Republican handling the plan shall
prove failure.
Without any regards to the merits
of Democratic diplomacy it is evil
dent that the Democrats have evolved
a plan of action in which the party
is unit. No other name is being
mentioned as a candidate for Presi-
dent and Mr.. Wilson evidently has a
clear field in which to develop third
term possibilities.

OFFERS
GREAT CHANCE
FOR AM. CAPITAL

DENVER, Colo, July 31-With a
population smaller than that of Phil
adelphia and an area slightly larger
than that of Arizona, Ecuador offers
alluring opportunities for American
capital and enterprise, in the opinion
of Charles w. Copeland, American
vice consul at Guayaquil, who is
now in Denver.
Partial toward Americans, genial in
disposition, practical though a bit
dilatory in their business dealings,
and slightly inclined toward super
stition, the Ecuadoreans, according
to Mr.. Copeland, possess a blend of
characteristics puzzling though not
displeasing to an Anglo-SaXon mind.
"At first, the average American
business man is likely to be veXed by
the constant attitude of 'manana, "
said Mr.. Copeland. "But experience
shows that the Ecuadoreau's mana
ma is as good as our today He pays
his bills scrupulously-but one must
be content to wait until 'manana,'"
Textiles and foodstuffs of all kinds
are the chief items imported by the
people of Ecuador. There is also
a heavy demand for hardware, ready
made clothing, machinery, drugs, and
boots and shoes.
The principal articles of export are
cocoa, Panama hats, coffee, vegetable
ivory, cotton, hides and rubber.
Ecuador is land of paladoxes,"
observed the vice counsel. "The
Panama-hat capital of the world is
not Panama, but Jipijapi or Monte
Cristi, Ecuador
"Anothcr paradox is that many
deadly insects and reptiles are not
deadly in Ecuador. For example, |
have never known of Il case where
the bite of the tarantula has proved
fatal.

THE HIGHWAY TO CANADA
(The st Adams Messenger)

l. he oL Adams MGSScHSeIJ
Seemingly the improved automo-
bile route leading through St. Adams
from New England points to Nor
treal and other Dominion points is
not an intangible thing but is being
taken seriously by our friends across
the line, who have passed through
the discussion stage and have entered
upon the phase Of finance and con-
struction. They have not been slow N
grasping the possibilities of the route
and now they look to US on this side
to do our share. The Messenger un-
derstands that the attitude of the
Vermont highway department has
been one of sympathetic interest
safcguarded by natural desire 10
see whether the Canadians meant
business before committing itself 20
do the work. The record of what the
Canadian towns on the route have
done in the way of voting for the i'm
proved highway and in contracting
for the necessary government loans
should be convincing on this score
and plainly eVrmont should begin to
do it's share of the work. One does
not have to be over optimistic to say
that this route will be increasingly
awaited of by tourists, and there is
every sign that with good roads link
ing up the highway systems of the
two countries the Interchange of
travel will grow year by year. Yer
mont should have this popular route
and the men on this side of the line
. who have been working at the propo-
sition for some time are now descrv-
ing of the tangible support of the
| highway department.

Why Not Here?

The passing of the Castleton and
Johnson Normal schools in 1920 will
take away from the citizens OF at
least one town a much-enJoyed
subject of criticism. The choice OF
a site for the new school to take the
place of the two discarded is still
to be decided upon. The town chosen
should have a school system of sutti-
Gent size and quality to give the
young teachers good practice work
and should have good railroad con-
nections. Educational features sucn
as public libraries and museums OF
natural science are to be considered.
We believe that st. Johnsbury would
provide an ideal location for the new
school.

EXPLAINS SUGAR SHORTAGE.
John II. Wilkins Gives His View
to Senate Committee.

John H. wilkins, president Of the
John H. wilkins Company. wholesale
grocers in tbs city. testifying before
the Senate agricultural subcommit-
tee investigating the sugarshortage,
said he believed there was little. If
any. profiteering in sugar by mer-
chants here. He said he believed
there was some boarding of sugar
by consumers who feared that there
would be rise in price of sugar and
shortage.
Mr.. Wilkins expressed the opinion
that the sugar shortage was largely
sugar. And that. in turn. was due to
prohibition. He said that since the
dry law became effective the demand
for candies and for soft drinks con-
tanning sugar has become very much
larger.
