AG4N DENOUNCED
18TH AMENDMENT
One of the Republican Candidates for
Governor Spoke in Barre-People
Deprived of Voice. He Said.

Declaring that he was opposed to the
18th amendment and the Volstead ac,
on the ground that lit was an abrdge
ment of the rights guaranteed the peo.
pie OF both the United States constitu.
tion and the constitution of the state
of Vermont, Frank w. Agan of Lud
low, a Republican candidate for gov.
ernor, faced an interested audience in
the city park Saturday evening
"The people" he declared, "have been
deprived of their voice in regard to the
18th amendment by 1855 men down in
Montpelier in the State house" 1t was
along this line that he spoke during
the greater part Of his address.
During the course of his speech Mr..
Agan drew comparison between the
prohibition law of 25 years ago, the To-
cal option, and the 18th amendment.
The first. be declared, had grown to be
a mere joke; the second was by far
the fairest and easiest to act CON
trary of the law in the dry cities and
towns; and the third had brought
about the deprivation of the liberty of
the people, and had been sthe reason
for all the rat poison" that the peo-
pie had been drinking in their efforts
to obtain something with a kick in it.
A further assertion of his was that
under the 18th amendment there could
not be obtained sufficient liquor in case
of an epidemic for use as a stimulant.
Since Congress has the right to de-
termine the amount of alcohol in
beverage sufficient to intoxicste," he
said, "and since the states may con-
cur or not, as they desire, the result is
bound to be grossly unfair to the peo-
pie in the various states"
In the concluding part of his address
he stated that at the present moment a
movement to oppose the
18th amendment as il now stands is
being instigated, with headquarters in
D. C., and that there was
chance of favorable re-
,ult

that the workingman must protect
himself against these factions Before
the war;" he declared, "there were
many millionaires in the United
States, but after the war there were
1900 more" Executive profits, exact
ed from the working people, produce
such products. He named several cor
porations, which, during the year of
1919, realized excessive profits, one
corporation receiving no less than re-
turn of Lila per cent.
The workmen's compensation act.
now operative in Ohio, is the best in
the country in the mind Of Mr.. Russell,
for it eliminates those excessive fees
of insurance companies, which ulti-
mately come from the working class.
He suggested that "the workers con
centrate all their energies to have a
workmens compensation act based on
the ideas of the Ohio state law put
upon the statute books. He presented
the name of Silvio Cardi, trade un-
ionist, as good representative of
the workingmen of Barre, and urged
the voters to east their ballots in his
favor Sept. IA, for city representative.

Edmund H. Moore, loungstown, o., the

Gov. Cox has no evidence in support
of his charges outside of what Moore

ness said. As he spoke he unfolded
massive brief case and took out stack
of papers that apparently numbered
several hundred sheets.
Gov. Cox sent him to Chicago, Mr..
Moore said, to give the committee the

CARS &. ling
A7FA,yER RATE
Barre g 3pers Are Feel
ing Some Relief from
Shortage
100 CARS
ALREADY RECEIVED.
And More Are Expected to1
Come at Rate of IS
a Week.

Appreciable gains in the immediate
inflow of cars, with prospects of con-
stantly increasing supply, were indi-
Gated in to-day's canvass throughout
the Barre district. Already nearly 100
cars have arrived and with the assur !
anee from the railroads that an aver
age of rs cars weekly may be expected.
and perhaps more, Barre manufactur-
ers and quarters are greatly encour-
aged.
Both the Central Vermont and the
M. & w. r. railroads are contributing
to relief measures. Officials of the two
companies are working in cooperation
with Traffic Manager G. ID. Waters Of
the Barre Quarters and Manufactur-
ers' association. Mr.. Waters returned
Saturday from Boston, where, in a con
ference with New England railroad
men, he outlined in very forcible way
the urgent need of cars in the Barre
granite industry. Undoubtedly one of
the direct results of the conference was
an unexpectedly heavy inflow of cars,
beginning Saturday and increasing
Sunday. All told, around 90 cars have
arrived thus far.
Twenty five cars have been diverted
to the quarries, the remainder being
assigned to manufacturers. At last ac-
counts the shortage was 800 cars, but
granite men hereabouts, both manufac-
turers and quarry owners, feel that
if the present quota of "empties" is
it may not be necessary to
suspend operations, as was seriously
contemplated in some quarters.
