Boston's Celebration
of PILGRIMS Landing

The advantages and disadvantages,
financial problems, most desirable
site and other matters connected
with holding an International expo
sition in Boston in 1925 in commemo-
ration of 300th anniversary of the
landing of the Pilgrims. were dis
cussed Thursday night at the dinner
of the State Commission at the Bos-
ton City Club
Louis X. Liggett declared that #
Boston did not want to become a
suburb Of New York. it must awake
cially: that commerce was more and
more going to New York because that
is the terminus of the long haul rail-
roads, and that to reawake Boston,
some kind of a community effort in
which all social. financial and indus
trial factions could submerge their
differences and work for a common
purpose was necessary.
In his opinion an exposition was
the best means of bringing about this
result. Sixty years ago Boston was
the leading port of the country" he
added. THE railroads were financed
from this city. but because the pro-
verbal Yankee is always willing to
sell anything at a profit, he sold his
clippers, steamers and railroads to
New York
He opposed any midway or bazaar
feature and said that he was not
convinced of the desirability Of
making il an annual affair, but that
the success of the first year would
decide that question. For a site he
suggested South Boston, proposing
that the present buildings be cleared
away to the water front, and then af-
ter the exposition was over, the land
could be rebuilt with modern up-to-
date buildings. thus increasing tre-
mendously the value of the property.
William ]. Mcdonald favored the
Fenway. between Hemenway street
and Harvard street, as the best site.
George r. Nutter spoke of the need
of New England conserving her in
dustries and the danger of their loss
when the water power of the West is
fully developed.
Ex-Mayor John F. Fitzgerald de-
plored the failure OF Bostonians to
realize that the future of the city
was on the sea and the failure of the
business men to take advantage of
the wonderful harbor He was
strongly in favor Of the exposition.
Joe Mitchell Chapple. John Daniels
and Thomas F. Anderson also spoke.

A Late Contribution to Clarity

The real issue presented by the,
Democratic party was not whether
We should CO. Operate with other ma
tons interested in peace but whether
we should assume a moral obligation
which had no weight except as it
suspended the right of congress to
act independently"
In the above Bryan happily ex-
pressed the League issue that was
presented to the people and leaves
the American public, he processes to
serve, 10 wonder why he did not ex-
press himself before the ballots were
counted. Had he done so he would
have materially contributed to the
clarity needed. Evidently, however.
the public discovered the same truth
and acted on it and Bryan's failure to
give of his wisdom did not change
the result.
Decidedly and conclusively the
public did not turn its back on CO.
operation with other countries in an
effort to- prevent war. The Wilson
League was not rejected in a boast
full spirit Oft I'VE can lick all crea-
tion." or why should We worry
about what happens in the old
world" Opposition was not based on
the belief that the war menace may
not be lessened if we do sincerely CO.
operate with other peoples but we did
object to saying one thing and mean
ing another. The American public
has no stomach for saying one thing
in a treaty and another in the Con-
stitution.
The peoples shrewd instincts told
them that if we had pledged our
selves to do certain thing in a trea-
~ we would not have the face to ask
Congress to refuse TO. meet the OBJ
legation. Many of them, too, knew
that in the opinion of some excellent
legal authorities the obligation would
be not only moral but likewise legal.
They refused to become involved in
the labyrinth; but it is unthinkable
that sincere efforts will not be made
20 establish cooperation on a sensi-
BILE and enduring basis Of good faith
so expressed as not to be susceptible
to conflicting interpretations.

A Good susi1ss Proposition Seeking

Cooperation
The matter of securing renewal and
continuance Of the steamboat service
between the Kennebec Valley COM
munities and Boston has been dis
cussed for more than two years. The
need of it has never been doubted but
just how to obtain the object has been
subject of much discussion. At last
experienced business men have for
mulated a plan on a business basis,
and now are asking for the co-opera-
ton OF the communities to be affected
by it. The result of their efforts has
been explained to the several Cham
hers Of Commerce in the territory
concerned and has met with approval
The estimates made and the data
connected with the enterprise appear
conservative and assure, as far as
may be done at this stage of an enter
prise, profitable investment to such
as subscribe to the stock; indeed it
is not too much to say that the pres
entation of the matter at the Civic
Forum last evening by the Messrs.
Crosby and other members of the
Bath Chamber of Commerce was both
convincing and encouraging. The de-
STABILITY of re-establishing the SER
vice Is unquestioned, it appeals to all
in any way familiar with the advan-
tages of water traffic. 1t is equally
apparent that now is the time to do
it, and if we know the temper of the
kennebec people it will be done.
