Wall street man. His fame rests in
great part upon his connection with
the Hudson river tunnels, the building
of which brought him into the most
intimate touch with big finance. Then,
when he becamesecretary of the treas
ury this primary connection was
brosdened and strengthened, Not that
he has always been on amicable terms
with the chieftains of finance. but, on
the whole. he has been in close rela-
ton to them. He, therefore, deals prin-
cipally in big facts and makes his
decisions according to his interpreta-
tions Of them, no matter what he may
say for partisan purposes. That Is the
way Of his type. Moreover, as a mat
ter of course, he is so situated that ne
has ample opportunity 20 get at facts.
Now, we have no inclination TO 60
behind any such fortnight statement
as that of Mr.. McAdoo in which he sets
out his reasons for refusing to permit
his name TO go before the San Francis
co convention. He says, in effect, that
he cannot afford a presidential cam
paiRn. that he doesn't want his friends
10 foot the bills in his behalf, and that
he desires and purposes 10 attend TO
the manly business of providing for his
family. When a man talks in that
fashion, one feels like meeting him
half way and believing what ne says.
At the same time il is only fair 70
read his words as they appear against
the background of the mans situation.
Mr.. McAdoo is so situated that he
must know the formidable obstacles he
would have TO surmount as the crown
prince nominee of his party. He IS IN
a position TO understand fully the han
dicap he would have TO overcome as the
supposed White House candidate, He
realizes that, for all his real independ-
ence, he would be looked upon by a
good many persons as simply q mani
kin set up to 90 through motions in
response 10 Mr.. Wilson's string-pull-
ing. We are not saying. you viii OBJ
serve. that any Of these harsh suspi-
cions would be well founded. We think
that for the most part they would be
cruelty untrue, although we are not
among Mr.. McAdoo's admirers. But
this Is the light in which he would
stand before large number OF our
people, and, true or false, Il would be
damaging light 20 stand in. We think
that Mr.. McAdoo knows II would be
fatal TO his political ambitions.
There is no doubt that he has been

a candidate. No man could permit him
self to be talked about so widely, and
so long, in this connection; no man
could permit his name to be used in
conventions and primaries and In the
Literary Digest poll, If he were not a
candidate for the nomination. 1t would
be mere child's play, and unfair play
at that. for him to do so. MIR. McAdoo
has aspired to the presidency. Now,
after attaining campaign position in
which he had as good chance as that
of any other man for the nomination,
he withdraws from the race, and gives
as a reason that he cannot afford the
game. That means. we should say, that
he knows that be could not win against
the Harding and Coolidge ticket. The
game isn't worth the candle to him be
cause il is q losing game. and he knows
il TO be so-knows it because he has
access 10 sources of information re-
garding public feeling throughout the
country which all do not possess. In
withdrawing from the race he acts the
part of wisdom-the wisdom of a man
who has a worthy object in life, keeps
close to facts in order to attain 1t, and
knows that facts are running contrary
TO one of his great hopes.-Manchester

Must Raise Corn and Grain.

There is every indication that the
Vermont farmer must return to the
practices of his forefathers and pro-
duce his own corn and grain. Years
ago the cheap, fertile land OF the CEN
trail west and the low freight rates on
corn and grain to the East gave the
Vermont farmer corn and grain cheaper
than he could raise them and the buy
ing of these grains commenced. 1t de-
veioped very rapidly and now hardly
any Vermont farmer relies on his own
farm for corn to feed his stock.
There has been a great change IN
conditions. There is no more cheap
land in the West and il has produced
its virgin crop until fertilization is
necessary. The railroads no longer
grant low rates on grains for the east
ern markets and are likely to never
return TO old time rates. Instead OF
buying western corn at from 10 cents
to 81 a hundred pounds, the Vermont
farmer now pays from s4.65 hundred
and upwards. While western grains
may be cheaper in few years they
will never return to old-time figures,
because IL costs more to produce them
and more to ship them. So the Yer
mont farmer can return to the produc-
ton of corn and oats with confidence
he will not soon be undersold by the
West
It is too late to produce more grain
this year hut another year should see
a great increase in the production OF
corn and oats and barley in Vermont.
The help to produce them undoubtedly
will be costly but not so costly as the
grain that will dribble in from the

The airplane fatality at Salisbury
Beach in which Mrs Richard H. Long,
wife OF prominent Massachusetts,
man. and Lieut.. G.. L. Groah lost their
lives through fall of less than hun

the fact that but little progress has
been made in recent years toward per
fecting the hesvier-than' air machines.
For instance, there is as yet no device
TO stop a side slip when the machine
IS near the surface, whereas the skilled
operator can easily get out of eide

This fight for life is going on now
where several thousand disabled boys
are being treated in various hospitals
10 which they have been assigned.
There are 400 BOYS at Parker hill,
Chelsea and elsewhere in this vicinity.
They need more recreation, more
CHEEKY visitors and, above all. more
opportunities to motor. While the war
was in progress innumersble offers
from motorists poured in upon the
hospitals, but now the boys have few
chances to get away from the monoto-
my of their surroundings. Many are
far from home. with no friends in this
neighborhood; numbers of them have
not as yet received pay from the gov
eminent and are dependent upon the
Offices of the Red Cross for money
enough to buy a box of cigarettes or
to pay their carfares if they go out.
To nearly all, walking is a laborious
and painful process. The boys at Chel-
sea and West Roxbury are very lone
ly and depressed the boys at Parker
hill, where they have not the needtul
jitney service that should be provided
long for the recreation and change OF

who has a motor.
If one stands for a moment in any
of our parkway drives and watches the
stream of motorists, ii is quite evident
that there is not a shortage OF ma
chimes, only a shortage of sympathy
and interest. If only few hundred
owners Of cars would volunteer their
use once week, once a fortnight, or
even once month, who can compute
the value of their contribution in help

1t will be many years before the back
to the soil movement gets under way
again and brings the agricultural sec
ton back to some semblance OF its for
mer glory. Another census even may
not show much check of the away
from the farm movement, unless Wig
orous and persistent efforts are made
by the agricultural departments OF the
various states in conjunction with the
federal department of agriculture, 1t
goes without saying that by much
effort people can be brought to appre'
ciate some OF the benefits Of living in
a farming section. That should be the

of necessity be rather small and there

Dale's Praise of Himself.

Despite Congressman Dale's unstint.
ed praise of his own record in behalf
of World war veterans we have an idea
that the service men of the second dis
trict will be disposed to place fully as
much confidence in what Captain Il. w,
Gibson could do for them If he were
elected representative. Captain Gibson's
service as personnel officer of the 57th
Pioneer regiment in this country and
in France was of the kind TO bring
him in particularly close touch with
Vermont soldiers and no officer stands
higher in their estimation. Congress
man Dale made a good deal of noise
at occasional intervals during the war,
and now comes out squarely in favor
of ths soldiers bonus bill, but we
doubt if American Legion members
will be deceived by this sort OF politi-
cal appeal.-Brattlebor Reformer

CURRENT COMMENT

In yielding to the request Of Senator
Harding to call special session of the
Vermont legislature to act on the
suffrage amendment, Governor Clement
has done the proper thing. The ques-
ton has now ceased to be Vermont
issue and Vermont had no moral right
to stand in the way of a national step
that could not be prevented and in
which delay was sure to cause ex-
ASPIRATION and hard feeling. The Ban.
ner congratulates Governor Clement on
yielding a point contrary to his own
convictions. Bennington Banner.

THE TREND TOWARD THE CITIES.

THE TREND TOW ARD The CITIES.
Statistics of the population of the
state of Delaware, the first to report
it's complete returns, tell us something
of the story, throughout the country
as a whole, of the migration from the
rural sections TO the larger centers Of
population Had the two other coun-
ties in the state done as well as New
Castle, the state would have shown a
gain far ahead of the average OF the
country; or had those two counties,
Kent and Sussex, held their own in
population the state would have main
tanned a marked gain. But Kent and
Sussex represent the country, or rural
sections of the state and have no large
centers of population, while in New
Castle county is the only large city OF
the state, Wilmington, which in 1920
had a total Of ITO, los, or approximate
ly one half of the states population.
Kent and Sussex counties fell of sharp
". lust as the rural section of the
other states Of the country will be
