AROUND IHE W0RA
WITH THE AMERICAN
lARED CROSS. .s3M
Z ~ In RoumAnia. H4N

Soon after the entrance of the
United States in the war the successes
of the Central Powers In Roumania
had reduced that country to a most
tragic condition and in the summer
OF 1917, the American Red Cross des-
patched its first Roumanian relief
contingent. Two hospitals were at
once taken over and operated by the
Red Cross, canteen for the starving
refugees established and food and
clothing distributed over large area
Transportation was one of the
toughest problems with which the Red
Cross workers in Roumania had tc
deal. Here is seen an oIcart used
by the Red Cross to carry its relief
supplies up into the mountains.

According to Opinion of the

Washington, d. c., Aug. Although
prices of practically all important foods
have shown substantial increase during
the last year, stocks of food held in

proximately 20 per cent greater than
those held on June !, 1918, according to

Government stocks were excluded from
the comparison.
'The fact that stocks of many i'm
portant foods were much larger on June
this year than on the same date last
year." said the commissions statement,
while prices were as high or higher, ap-
parently means that they are being with
held speculatively for a world demand,

that period Stocks Of frozen fowls

Sea Disaster Are on the
Water Witch-The Lost
Ship Was a Three-Master

Halifax, Aug. Twenty persons are
believed to have lost their lives when
the Tern schooner Gallia sunk last night
in collision with the British steamer
Water Witch. The schooner is reported
to have carried a crew of at least Is
and possibly dozen passengers, and
only seven survivors are named in wire
less messages from the steamer. The
collision occurred close to st. Pierre and
is supposed to have been due to the
heavy fog which has prevailed in that
locality for some days.
The Water Witch was bound for
North Sidney from Wabana, n. F., while
the Gallia was on her way to st.
Pieere from France. News of the catas-
trophe reached here in wireless messages
to the agents of the Water Witch.
Among the saved were: L. Coach, H. X.

PACKERS SUIT BROUGHT
BY WILSON'S ORDER
This Action Was One of the First Re-
suits of His Examination of the Cost
of Living Situation.

Washington, D. c., Aug. THE gov
ernment's new antitrust suit against
the five great meat-paeking concerns is
being brought by direction of President
Wilson as one of the first results of his
study of the cost of living problem.
1t became known to-day that the
president came to his decision after a
careful study of the Investigations of
the federal trade commission and the
hearings before congressional committees
considering bills to control the packing
industry. Conferences with members of
the federal commission and Attorney
General Palmer followed. The announce
ment by the attorney general that the
suits would be brought was the imme-
diate result.
1t seems assured the government will
charge the packers with being an illegal
trust on the ground that they control
the buying of cattle. Whether there will
be the double charge that they control
both buying of cattle and selling of fin
ished meat products has not been SO
clearly defined.
While the attorney general is prepar
ing his case, special agents of the de-
partment of justice will continue their
hunt for profteers and hoarders.

Automobile parties commenced to
gather in Montpelier and Barre this fore
noon before they went to Intercity park
this afternoon for the purpose of attend
ing the joint field day that the farm
bureaus of Washington and Orange coun-

mobiles was provided in the field across
the road from the park.
The speakers of the afternoon include
Oliver Wilson, master of the national
grange; Andrew Elliot Of the Canadian
department of agriculture, and W. A.
Lloyd of the United States department
of agriculture. Stock Judging demon
strations will take place during the aft
ernoon. This is not actual Judging, but
will be of value to those interested in
high bred stock.

Granite Cutters.
PoIishers.

Although the present number of ap-
prentices, according to census recently
completed by the manufacturers asso-
citation, is somewhat larger than in re-
cent years, the Barre district, which in
cludes this city, Montpelier, Northfeld,
Waterbury, Williamstown, East Barre
and West Berlin, is still far behind its
quota.
The association is sending a delegation
Of 30 manufacturers and quarters to
Columbus and its representatives will
take an active part in the movement to
make apprentice conditions much more
attractive to young men who desire to
establish themselves in lucrative trade
That the federal government is taking
an interest in the apprentice situation is
indicated by the presence in Barre this
week of Prof. l.. H. Beach of Washing
ton, d. c., a representative of the federal
bureau for vocational education. 1t de-
yelops that young men anxious TO learn
the granite cutters trade are constantly
applying to the board for openings, and
it is possible, therefore, that cooperation
between the board and the manufactur-
ers would measursbly remedy the pres
ent shortage of apprentices. Tentative
plans for improving this opportunity
would include an extension of the Barre
evening drawing school in order to fur
nish greater facilities for the training of
young apprentices.
