The repeated mention of the name of
Dr. A. Ii. Appemann in the cable dis
patches from Coblenz, latterly as liaison
officer representing President Ebert of
the German government in the negotia
tions with the Americans for food sup
plies for the Germans, arouses mental
anguish in the minds OF large number
of Vermont people who consider that the
said Appelmann deity hoodwinked Yer
mont people while he was retaining the
position of professor of German in the
University of Vermont and all the time
trying in his own way TO minimize the
enormity of Germany's crime against
the world. We have yet to learn that
this Appelmann interested himself one
bit in the welfare of American soldiers
who became prisoners of Germany,
work he so glibly told the American
public he should fondly desire to do once
he should get back to his native land
after the United States had declared
state of war existing with Germany. All
Vermont was not hoodwinked, however
as the great protest by part of the alum
nj of the University of Vermont showed.
That protest appears to have been pretty
well founded

THE FLEETS RETURN.

The great feet of warships which has
come into New York harbor is calculated
to arouse the enthusiasm of Americans
over the evidence of strength which it
gives; but at the same time we must
bear in mind that the American navy is
a poor second to Great Britain's and
that we cannot speak in terms of the
superlatiye in describing our splendid
sea armament. There is no doubt, how
ever, that 1.-THE United States has come
into the second position by reason of
the mutations brought about by the
great war, Germany having been perna-
nently dislodged from the competition
and the other maritime nations having
been far outstripped by the United
States in the feverish haste Of the Wash
ington government to raise up bulwark
on the sea, So, while remembering there
is still one other nation which stands
ahead of us in naval armament, we
Americans can take a modest degree of
pride in the accomplishments of the
United States navy toward bringing the
war to a successful issue for the allies.
Unless the Sims reinforcements had ar
rived on the scene of action when they
did, Germany most likely would have
made one last desperate effort to smash
the allied Gordon of war vessels, which

WHAT BARRE MUST DO.

Although Barre's quota in the fifth
Liberty loan, the Victory loan, is consid-
erably less than in the fourth loan, the
task of raising the amount will be just
about as difficult as it was in the fourth
loan, for, on the previous occasion, mon.
ey was withheld from private invest.
ment and was, therefore, more free
while to-day, with the war ended, money
is being launched more freely into pri.
vate investment and is, consequently
less available. Moreover, there is NOT
just as imperative an urge back of the
fifth loan as there was back of the
fourth, for when the latter was sub.
scribed the issue of the war was not
completely assured, although all Amer.
leans had faith in the outcome, and there
seemed to be greater incentive for the
people to come to the aid of the govern
ment. Such being the situation which
faces the Liberty loan committee in
Barre, as well as elsewhere, it is all the
more necessary that all the forces at
command be enlisted in the final effort
to put the local campaign through sue.

be accomplished providing cooperation is
given by the entire city. 1t remains
therefore, for the entire city to render
that cooperation to the local committee
and the solicitors. Let us finish the job
