WASHINGTON. Sept. 23.-Ncxt
slme you hear that some food dealer
dumped a car OF good eats Into the
river to make the price 70 up, laugh
at 1t.
II was recently reported that food
dealers dumped several cars OF pota-
toes IN the river near Wilmington.
Delaware. The department OF agri-
culture got letters concerning that al
legged incident that were SO hot they
scorched the paper.
Secretary Meredith sent n mr. TO
Delaware to investigate. One man to
whom the story was traced said In
his fifteen years experience on the
road. he had never scen o o dumped,
and nobody else. who would have
been In n position to know, could
substantIate the story.
Dumping food would seem TO he
an unlikely thing unless Il Is spoiled
and unmarket,blc. Sometimes potn-
toes are left In the ground because II
doesn't pay IN dig and ship them. and
once tho farmers OF Kansas used cars
Of corn for firewood because the
price was too low. But dumping food
from cars would hardly happen. es-
pecially potatoes Mt the high price
they are now. Humans are some-
times mighty bad, but that would he
the limit.
Everytime I sec n white house eN-
picket with u miniature Jail door

folks look with pride to their jail
sentences. II Is time TO make II

Then heres Editor Leech, OF the

NARROW ESCAPES
IN TWO ACCIDENTS
Polish Child on Elliot Street Knocked
Down-John Manley, jr., Misses
Pole as Wheel Collapses.

Two automobile accidents happened
here Saturday and Sunday and in each
instance there was a narrow escape from
serious injury. Clifford Moon was driv-
ing west on Elliot street Saturday night
when a small Polish child who was going
toward the sidewalk turned quickly and
started across the street in front of the
car. The mud guard hit the child in the
cheek and knocked him down, but he
was not badly hurt. Bystanders said Mr..
Moon was driving slowly and was not at
fault.
John B. Manley, jr., whose father. John
B. Manley, sr., is a well-known garage
proprietor, barely missed hitting a tele.
phone pole in attempting to avoid col
lision on Canal street Sunday afternoon
and one front wheel of his Essex ear col
lapsed in the gutter. Mr.. Manley was
crossing Canal street from Birge street
and therefore had the right of way, but a
car driven by Richard Lee of Ashuelot
n. H., was approaching from Mr.. Man
ley's left and forced him into gutter
the right front wheel striking pile OF
dirt. The New Hampshire car turned
to the left and headed up Washington
street hin in time to avoid hitting the
Essex car.

Cox Representative
Vague as to Charges

CHICAGO, Sept. THE sena-
torial committee investigating cam
paign expenditures "is not seeking
the best evidence" to prove Cow
ernor Cox's charges against the Re-
publican party, Edmund H. Moore,
the governors personal representa-
tive, told the committee on the stand
today. Governor Cox sent him to
Chicago, Mr. Moore said, to "give the
committee the list from whom the
senators could get the information to
support the governors charges" he
mentioned Harry M. Blair, first as
sistant to Fred Upham, Republican
national treasurer, and several other
employees of Upham's Office.
In answering Senator Kenyon's di-
rect question for names of men who
knew about the Ohio fund Mr.. Moore
went into a long explanation of his
understanding of the Republican
campaign fund organization. He said
it was headed by Colonel Thompson
and had as state chairman men whom
the Republican bulletin described as
"of commanding influence"
81 found that usually in Ohio these
local chairmen were manufacturers"
said Mr.. Moore. The witness reit-
Grated the charge that specific quo
tas were assessed against local COM
munities and then said, "but these
local organizations were largely seem
cry" The real workers for funds
were paid men, headed by Harry M.
Blair, assistant to Mr.. Upham. He
said Blair had under him certain
divisional directors" in charge of
sections of the country. "These
are the professional money raisers,"
said Mr.. Moore. A battalion of
"moppers-up" is also part of the
Republican finance organization, ac-
cording to Mr.. Moore. He said these
men went in after the organization
headed by Colonel Thompson had
collected from "the cream list"

FIGHT BREWING ON
VOTING QUESTION
Eligibility of Women to Vote for School
Director Without Paying Poll
Tax Comes Up in Guilford.

The question of whether women were
eligible to vote for school director in a
special town meeting to be held in Gull
ford this afternoon for the purpose of
choosing a director to succeed Ernest R.
Thomas, who resigned, was the cause of
considerable discussion between lawyers
and others this forenoon, when some
Guilford men voters came to Brattleboro
to ascertain the status of women in that
respect. Some of them claimed that
women who had paid taxes could vote
for school director without paying poll
tax, while others disagreed on this
point, saying the poll tax was necessary.
Different sections of the statutes were
read and the interpretations of them
were given by several without definite
decision being reached. The men who
came here to look the matter up declared
before they left that sit will be the hot
test town meeting ever held in that town
(Guilfordl if the women who have paid
taxes are not allowed to vote at the meet
ing this afternoon"
