The leading business men of the coun-
try have registered their opposition to
the repeal of the daylight saving law
before the committee holding hearing
on bin to restore the country to sun
time. They deelared-and we agree
with them-that what is popular and
beneficial in war time should not be
dropped in peace time and that it should
really be called daylight living in
stead of daylight saving

The Burlington Free Press joins with
other papers in the demand that the
Graham and Hanley eases be disposed
of, making dire political predictions for
the future if there is a default of JUS
tice in these instances If there is any
disposition on the part of anyone to
let these cases drift in the hope that
they will be forgotten, such one is
most mistaken The affair will assume
the proportion of scandal in due sea-
son, scandal of greater proportion
than the one which it gave birth. Why
is not some authorized explanation
Forthcoming from the proper authori-
ties? Nothing angers the people more
than to ignore them when they are ask
ing about their own business and the
people of Vermont want to know the
real status of these eases

solved the domestic question for Mr.
