To BUILD FIRST
PERMANENT ROAD
ON WEST MAIN
Contracts for Drainage to Be Let
Early This Month
ADD TO SANITARY SEWER
Engineer H. Eltinge Breed Of New
York in Town Making Necessary
Surveys for the Work.

H Eltinge Breed of New York, the
supervising engineer engaged by the
village for the construction OF the
permanent streets for which the voters
lat the last annual village meeting vot-
ed to expend 100000, is in the village
and with an assistant has been engag
ed in making surveys for the work.
In consultation with the village Off
cials, Mr.. Breed has indicated that the
first piece of construction to be taken
up will be that on West Main street
between the Putnam House corner
and Depot street. The building of the
surface sewer and an addition tc the
sanitary sewer will be the first work
undertaken and Mr.. Breed believes
that he should be ready to receive bids
for it by May 5.
AT present it is planned to put in a
two-foot sanitary sewer main on the
south side Of West Main street paral-
leling the present one-food pipe. The
new line would take care Of all sewage
in the section south Of Main street and
on South street and tributary
thoroughfares II it is found possible
to direct the surface water coming
from Pleasant street north over North
street and discharging into the river at
the North street bridge it may not be
necessary to construct surface sewer
on West Main street between the Put
nam House corner and Depot street
The engineer also hopes to be able
tcl change the direction of the present
Pleasant street sanitary sewer which
now discharges into the Main street
line at the Putnam House corner IT
the Pleasant street section and tribu-
tary territory can be cared for by turn
ing the North street in a northerly di-
rection and passing under the riveg
the present sanitary sewer can be re-
lieved of considerable portion of its
burden.
Following the construction on West
Main street il is planned to double the
sanitary sewer on Depot street from
/ West Main street to County street and
this addition should, in the opinion of
the engineer, relieve all danger of con.
gestion for many years to come.
In making his surveys and estimates
Mr. Breed has followed to a great ex-
tent the Bowditch plan of surface
drainage made in 1914 The Bowditch
+ plan, the engineer states, is an excep.
tionally comprehensive one and wll
save the village considerable money
at the present time
! Disposition of surface waite. in the
village, once that the subject is given
thorough study, is net proving such a
formidable undertaking as has been
imagined. 1t IS not going to be neces-
sary to build long lines of piping as
outlets into the river that will care for
many sections of the village are avail
able.

cummins Sums 1t Up.

Senator Cummins told the Iowa Re
publican state convention the truth
when he said, "The treaty failed of
ratification for Just one reason.
Woodrow Wilson in his revengeful
pride, in his resentment against the
Senate because il dared to exercise its
Constitutional functions, coerced
enough Democratic senators who
wanted to vote for ratification into
the course which he commended, and
they followed him instead of their
own consciences.' The Messenger
sincerely believes that this will be
the verdict of history. The reading
public knows full well that the treaty
might have been ratified had Mr.. viii
son had the willingness to COM
promise. He could have accepted
such compromise as would not have
destroyed the League of Nations. but
which would have kept American in
stitutions intact Against the advice
of such men as ex-President Taft,
President Lowell and other firm advo-
Gates of the League Mr.. Wilson re-
fused to make the compromise. 1t
was his refusal to do this that resulted
in the defeat of the treaty. 1t il pos
sible to sum the situation up any diff
ferently with due regard to the facts

Simply Gould Not Take MIR. o'Hara
Because He Did Not Have Rooms
for Transient Guests.

Fiske O'Hara, the well known actor
who appeared at the Opera house Fri
day night in Down Limerick Way" In
a short speech between the acts de-
ciared that he was unjusuy treated at
the Putnam house.
Mr.. O'Hara stated that he and Mrs.
O'Hara and Miss Allen arrived in Ben
nington by automobile and were re-
fused accommodations at the Putnam
house where they were told that they
had no rooms.
Later on, said Mr. O'Hara, a member
of the company got room with bath
there but was asked first II he was
member of the theatrical company.
He denied that he was and got the
room. Afterward when 1t was found
out that the man was an actor 1t was
claimed that the price of the room was
more than doubled. The lest OF the
company got rooms outside.
Mr.. OHara said that it had once
cost a Boston hotel $4,000 for refns-
ing to receive guests when the hotel
had available rooms and that II cost
the Palmer House at Chicago $5o,00q
for excluding a colored man Mr..
O'Hara added that he intended to
bring legal action against the Putnam
house.

House was seen this morning by a re-

says that the whole matter was due
to misunderstanding by Mr.. OHara-
When the latter arrived at the hotel
there were only two vacant rooms and
these were being kept for commercial

BILL DEFEATED
Measure Goes to House for Act

TAKES NEARLY 2 BILLION
Fight in the House viii Be Chiefly
Over How to Raise the Money
to Pay the Bonus.

Washington, April 3O.-With the
largest increase in taxes ever included
in peace time revenue measure, the
soldier aid bill was agreed to today
by the House Ways and Means Com
mittee
The measure authorizes the appro-
prlation of at least 81 500 900, 1000 dur
ing the years 1921 and 1922, with in
creased victory taxes" as the
bill calls them-which the Treasury
Department estimates will yield $751;
100000 next year and like sum in
1922.
The bill came from the committee
this afternoon virtually the same as
IL was approved by the Republican
members yesterday, Democrats being
defeated in all moves to amend it. APP
proximately 3,750,000 Of the 4,S00,O00
in the service will be eligible to re-
ceive the benefits of the measure.
Prominent among the tax features
is the sales tax, and this is certain to
cause a long determined wrangle at
the Republican caucus. Should as
many as seyenty-five Republicans
break away from the leaders because
of the sales tax the whole programme
for pushing the bill through next
Monday will have to be changed. The
combination of the insurgents" and
the Democrats would prevent its pas
sage in its present form.
The insurgents" will insist that the
sales tax be eliminated for an increase
of the normal income tax rate from
to s per cent. during the next two
years: that the greater increases in
the surtaxes than those provided in
the bill be enasted, and that a heavy
levy be placed on the privilege of is
suing stock dividends.

WHY CHURCHES LEFT OUT
Universalists Excluded and Episco-
paIans Stayed Out.


Rutland. April 30-Rev George w.
Peck, pastor of the First Baptist
church of Rutland, declared yesterday
that the Universalist ministers in re-
pudiating the inter church world move
ment had taken offense where none
should be taken and had created an un-
fortunate situation.
He said that it was news to the
people of Vermont that the Universal
lists and Unitarians were not included
in the movement and denied that the
Episcopalian churches were excluded.
The case of the trouble. he said, lies
in the fact that the Methodist Of the
Middle West and the Presbyterans
of the South refused to be identified
with any movement which admitted TO
membership denominations which
deny the divinity of Christ.
The Episcopallans decided not to
join the movement because they have
recently had drive of their own and
have already covered for their own
denomination a part of the ground in
cluded in the Inter-Church World
Movement.

that the quota would be raised in Yer

markable as the work against tuber-

accomplishments of the organization

$500 and the cooperation of the State
