NEW ENGLAND OPPOSED TO
GOVERNMENT OPERATION

Editors Of State in Large Majority
Report Their Communities Against
SOcialisiic Experiment.
ANY belief that radical ideas have
been gaining ground in New England
1 through the rapid growth Of its indus
trial population and the influx of for
eign labor, is exploded by the results
Of n QUESTIONABLE on the subject OF
government operation of industries
sent out to the newspaper editors. OF
the 157 New England editors who re-
piled, 154, or 9S per cent said that the
citizens of their communities were
opposed to the government going into
business in competition with its citi-
zens. This is ~ per cent higher than
the sc per cent adverse vote of the
country as a whole.
The questionable was sent out by
the Press Service Company Of New
York City. While the inquiry was
based on the general principle Of gov
ernment operation. the so-called
Muscle Shoals bill now before Con
gress was used as a concrete example.
Under this bill government-owned
corporation would be given power,
among other things, to produce at
Muscle Shoals various fertilizer pro-
ducts and sell them in competition
with private manufacturers and deal
ers.
As to the wisdom OF the govern
ment adopting this policy toward the
fertilizer industry the editors were
asked for their personal opinion OF
the ISL editors who gave an opinion
on this point, 1873, or 81 per cent were
unqualifiedly opposed to any such
scheme.
The political affiliations Of the New
England papers whose editors ans
wered the QUESTIONABLE were: Repub-

Foreign Prince

There is also a possibility Of offer
ing the throne to a foreign Prince, but
the Premier is reluctant to take such
a step. To begin with, it would be
hard to find a suitable candidate.
When Prince Otto Of Bavaria was call
ed to the throne of Greece in 1882, the
protecting powers Of Great Britain,
France and Russia gave solemn under
taking that none of their Princes
would seek the throne, an undertaking
which was renewed by King George Of
Great Britain in 1917, as result the
choice is narrowed considerably.
Prince Charles, the second son Of King
Albert Of Belgium, has been mention
ed as a probable candidate, but King
Albert recently made il clear that II
the throne should be offered the
Prince, it Would be refused.
Elections Postponed
The elections, which were TO take
place on November 8, have been post
poned a week Premier Venizelos is
expected to carry his party TO victory
by a substantial majority
The lower chamber Of the Greek
Parliament will be convened immedi
ately to elect the Regent
French Governments Attitude
Paris. Oct. 26-At the French For
eign Office it was said today that the
French government is quite in agree
ment with the policy Of Premier Veni-
zelos in offering the Greek throne to
Prince Paul, as he is the logical as
well as the dynastie successor to the
late King Alexander owing TO the
elimination Of former King Constan
tine and Prince George, who is also
Duke Of Sparta, from the succession.
The French government, il was
stated, is convinced that the alter
native Of a foreign prince is not re-
owing to the fact that mo
foreign prince is available, or those
available will not accept"

Exile Of Constantine.

Dead Ruler Assumed Crown on the
Exile Of Constantine.
Athens. Oct. 26-The throne Of
Greece. made vacant by the death Of
King Alexander, will be offered 70
Prince Paul, third son Of former King
Constantine, Il is officially announced.
Athens. Oct. % Many difficulties
regarding succession TO the Greek
throne will result from the death Of
King Alexander. which occurred last
night There is every indication the
throne will be offered Prince Paul,
third son Of former King Constantine,
but, as condition, King Constantine
must formally abdicate and Prince
George, older brother Of Prince Paul,
must renounce his rights.
II is probable that King Constantine
will at first refuse TO meet these con-
ditions, but il is understood Premier
Venizelos will introduce arguments Of
some Importance. Constantine's finan-
eial status is well known and it is the
understanding that the Premier will
agree to restore the former Kings
suppressed pension il the above terms
are accepted
Question of a Republic
Only in the event of Constantine's
persistent refusal would there be a
question Of the establishment Of re-
public, but il is known Premier Veni-
zeloS is of the opinion that Greece is
not yet ripe for that form Of govern
ment.

SATURDAYS NEWS

After a long and painful illness
Miss Amy Grubb, one of the best
known young women of Ashland, died
at a local hospital at an early hour
this morning. For over year Miss
Grub had been a sufferer, and last
summer she went to Portland where
she underwent an operation. On her
return home later she was improved
somewhat, so that she was able to be
around again. Her trouble, however,
was too deep seated for medica! or
surgical help, and she gradually grew
worse. She again returned to Port-
land, and remained until New Years,
when she came home and entered a
hospital here, where her life grad
ually ebbed away until 1920 this
morning when death ended her sul-
ferings.
Miss Grubb had been a resident of
Ashland all her life. She was a
daughter of Mrs. and the late John l..
Grub, one of the prominent families
of this community. For many years
she had been employed in the local
newspapers of this city, first in the
