AIRPLANE STATIONS
Boston May Be One for Aviation Ser.
vice to the Methodist Centenary
at Columbus, Ohio

Boston may be one of the airplane
stations of the passenger-carrying
aviation service to the Methodist Cen
tenary Celebration at Columbus, o..
June 20 to July IS, according to ten
tative plans announced yesterday by
DR.. j. |. Bartholomew, Executive
Secretary of the New England area,
at the Boston Centenary headquart-
ers.
Large manufacturers Of airplanes
are being interested in the project of
establishing such service between
Columbus and cities within radius
of thousand miles, and are invited
to exhibit their machines on the mann
moth U. S. Aviation Field at the Ohio
State University, wher many Amcri-
can aces were trained for service i'll
France.
The immense oval in front oil the
grandstand on the Ohio State Fair
Grounds where the celebration is 10
be held furnishes an ideal landing
place for airplanes, and has been pro-
nounced all that was desired for just
such a project by United States Gov
eminent officials.
Alonzo E. Wilson, director of spec
ial days and events at the celebration,
says "there is no reason why air
planes of every make in the country
should not be at the Centenary Cele-
bration at Columbus, as the Ohio
State Fair Grounds have every faci-
lily for easy landings, before hun
dreds of thousands of spectators
from all over the world"
Another interesting feature Of the
celebration will be the regimen; of
Centenary Cadets, composed Of 1000
Boy Scouts and High School boys be-
tween the ages of Is and IS, who will
act as guides and uSllers on the Elk
position grounds during the colebra-
ton. Methodist Boy Scouts from
Boston and all parts of New England
will assemble at Columbus. June 16,
for a week of intensive training for
this work.
The physical director of the ONO
State University volunteered to direct
of the Centenary Cadets. while The
University trustees agreed to equip
the physical training and field sports
the regiment with rifles used by the
University Cadets.
The Fighting Chaplain of the
United States Marines, E. l.. Nixon,
who won the Croix de Guere by his
gallantry on the Western battlefront,
has been chosen as Senior Chaplain
of the Cadets. Chaplain Nixon won
another distinction during the world
war which he prizes quite as highly
as the French war cross, and that was
the privilege of wearing Marine
Corps buttons on his uniform. This
permission was given Nixon after he
was with the Marines at Chateau
Thierry and Belleau Wood in the uni
form of a Y. M. C. A. worker during
the hottest of the fighting. After
Chateau Thierry, the Marines said he
might wear the Marine buttons, an
honor conferred upon no other CIV
ilian.
Major General Leonard Wood,
Honorary Colonel of the Cntenary
Cadets, notified celebration officials

Confesses to Winooslsi Murder
Mike Arruzza has confessed to the
killing of Dominic Arruzza, who was
stabbed to death near midnight Sun
day in Winooski. He made his confess
sion to States Attorney Allen M.
Martin and Chief of Police Barber,
of Winooski in the Chittenden county
Jail in Burlington. The stabbing was
done with shears nine inches long,
which had been found covered with
blood, in the pocket of Mikes coat
The cause of the quarrel was some
question about mems work.
The missing link in the chain of
evidence was produced when Chief
Barber arrested Mike Momona. Bar
Der found Momona at his work in the
boiler rooms at the wooden mills. He
had been convinced that Stramintino,
who was arrested late Saturday night
had nothing to do with the crime, and
from testimony offered him from per-
sons who had seen the Italians quar-
reling he had cause to believe that
one of the two men seen running
from the PROSTATE form of Dominic
ArruZza was still at large Momona
was that man. He had attempted to
separate the quarreling relatives.
Miks Arruzza, who had previously
been questioned by the officers in the
Jail, told story of having seen Dom
inic, who was his cousin, and not his
half-brother, quarreling with a
stranger; that after Dominic fell he
gave chase to the stranger, who in his
flight dropped the shears, Mike pick
ing them up.
A sentence of not less than five
nor more than six months in the
house of correction at Windsor was
given to Fred Mcueen of Burlington

non-support of his wife and five chill
dren. He was, however, placed under
the jurisdiction of the probation off
Ger for period of two years and or
dered to pay SO per week and the SEN
tence suspended, pending his keeping
the terms of the probation.

In a letter to Senator Kenyon, Sec
retary Of War Baker repudiates the
charge that the reason why 10000, 900
pounds of canned meats are not placed
on the market is because the depart
ment fears the depression Of packers
prices. He says the beef was packed
in sizes not commonly issued and that
the bacon was especially salted and
prepared for overseas service. This
seems to be a poor excuse for not
placing it on the market unless it is
unfit for human consumption as was
the 'embalmed beef" so-called, issued
in the Spanish American war. # it
is fit food for our soldiers after being
shipped across why not for other peo-
pie on this side Of the ocean?

In the following Colonel Harvey
drives another nail into the POLITICAL
master general and clinches it: "a
most amazing gloss is given to 1.-The
notorious and all but intolerable mis-
management of the postoffice depart
ment in the statement that an enor-
nous sum of forfeited insurance on
parcels-post matter has been repudiat-
ed because the department has no
funds with which to pay it. The fire.
quency with which packages in that
branch of the service has been "lost,
strayed or stolen" has long been a
national scandal. Not long ago there
was a special "boom" for insuring
such packages, at special rate, and
new windows for the transaction 2of
such business, conveniently situated
so as to attract the public, were opened
at important postoffices. People were
urged to pay higher rates on their
packages to insure their safe delivery.
Yet now we are told that such insur-
ance is being repudiated. We are not
surprised at it, of course. We long
ago gave up being surprised at any
vagaries or tantrums of the POLITICAL
master general. But-we should hate
to say what would be thought and said
of such practice, and indeed what
would be done about it, if it were per-
petrated by some private concern in
stead of by department of the Unit
ed States government. :

More Power to tt.


One of the organizations that came
out of the big war with added prestige
was the Salvation army. Uncle Sans
soldiers are strong for the Salvation
lists. The doughnuts and hot coffee
that the lassies served, right up there
on the firing line, made a great hit
with the men in khaki. Wherever
Uncle Sans army went the Salvation
army went, administering to the
physical and spiritual man. The Sal
walton army made good; it proved
itself to be fright" in every way.
And many an American has made a
solemn pledge to himself that hereaf-
ter he will aid the Salvation army in
every way that he can. He remembers
the kindly service rendered in time Of
dire need, and he will not forget the
organization that did so much for ssour
boys" when they needed it the most.
More power to the Salvation army.

Mr.. Bryan, in an address before the
Presbyterian general assembly, as
sured his audience that the league Of
nations would keep US out of war.
Four years ago Mr.. Bryan was going
about the country declaring that if
this coutry failed to engage in pre-
paredness that would keep us out Of
war. Yet that lack of preparedness
not only did not keep us out of war,
but it cost us billions Of dollars and
thousands of lives. Still Mr.. Bryan
continues to get the applause Of the
sentimentalists, who are ready for
anything from sixteen-to-one to the
Versailles covenant that is advocated
on the ground that it is going to bring
on the millennium National Republi-
can.
We would advise Mr.. Bryan to take
a course of medicine and respectfully
prescribe vermifuge for the ailment
from which he is suffering.

Michael Gilhooley, a boy ii years
old, who for the third time recently
arrived in New York as a stowaway,
should now be permitted to remain.
Twice he crossed to this country wear
ing soldiers uniform and the last
time sailors. He was born in Bel
gium, his father being Irish and his
mother Belgian. Both are dead, his
mother having been killed when her
house was bombed from the air. Mike
is made of the right stuff-he is de-
termined to become, either by hook or
crook, an American citizen, and in his
case arrangements should be made so
that he may realize his ambitions.

Due for a Trimming.

It now seems certain that Wilson's
league of nations will have hard sled
ing in the United States senate.
Enough senator's, more than majori-
ty, have signifed their opposition, and
the pact is certain to be amended, if
its ratification is not actually defeat
ed. In the meantime people at large
should keep an open mind. AS an
abstract principle we may well be-
lieve in a league of nations, but if this
shall mean such entangling alliances
with the nations of Europe as shall
deprive America of it's freedom Of ac-
tion, we may we'll hesitate. Wilson is
not infallible and may easily have
been overreached by the willy diplo-
mats of the old world. Let the senate
dissect the document unhampered by
popular clamor. Good may come of
it.-Preston Times.

Bolshevists are rapidly increasing
in number in this country. They have
numerous allied organizations, such
as the I. W. w. and the anarchists, all
of whom are virtually of the same
stripe, and the whole bunch should be
rounded up, the aliens among them
deported and the others imprisoned in
national "pest colonies" Some of our
cantonments could be utilized for this
purpose. But they should be COM
PEELED to earn their living by cult
waiting the land surrounding the
camps. Ole Hanson, mayor of Seattle,
would be good man to superintend
these pest colonies.

mand is not granted an ultimatum is

are, since the last election, claiming
to be republican. Even Willard of the
Nation, who for six years has been

politician;" which may all be true
enough, but the republican party does

OUR BOYS WORK IN THE WAR.

OUR BOYS WORK In The WAX.
When on Memorial day, in the
American cemetery at Surenes, that
greatest of military tacticians, Mar
shal Foch, sincerely thanked the
United States, through the medium Of
President Wilson, for it's assistance
during the war, tears Of appreciation
tric!led down the veterans cheeks.
"Your boys" he said, 10000 of them,
have died to save France, and the debt
we owe you is incalculable-" :<,s@
While it is true that those heroes of
our who lie in French graves be-
decked with feur de lis, and those who
survived, saved our sister republic
from utter enslavement, it is also
true that they saved Great Britain,
Italy and the little professed neutral
nations from the repacious onslaught
of the kaiser and his Hunnish hordes.
Had it not been for the fact that our
troops reached France in time to stem
the tide of the advance of the bloody
tyrant's armies, it would not only
have meant that the land of Lafayette
would have been subjected to Hun
domination, but the English channel
would have been crossed, Great
Britain conquered, and Italy also
brought beneath the German yoke.
And that is not all-the neutral coun-
tries would have ultimately been COB
bled up. by the invader, and probably
India besides, in addition to the Medi-
terranean, the Holy Land and other
vast territory. ....
Then, again, the monster whose aim
was conquest of the world and SUBJ
jugation of nations, would doubtless
have attempted to place the United
States under his thumb, and who can
say that he would not have succeeded?
So, it is we'll that we responded to the
call of our allies in the time of their
great struggle and saved many ma
tions from bondage.

There appears to have been more or
less cocainizing of consciences in the
formulation Of that part of the peace
covenant which pertains to the cutting

expect when we sent lot of he-school-
ma'ams to the Paris conference to
match wits with trained diplomats Of
Europe?
