The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1920-04-19

An earnest Of better things in Ger
many is the act of criminal court in
Berlin in filming Prince Joachim Al
brecht, a member of the former house
of Hohenzollern, along with two other
ex-nobles, for having attacked mem
bers of a French commission at the
hotel Adlon one night recently, the de-
tails of which encounter are yet fresh
IN the minds of newspaper readers in
the United States. Joachim Albrecht
virtually admitted the ofFense by say
ing in extenuation that he had been
drinking a little and that the French
had given him provocation. In spite Of
That plea in extenuation, the court took
occasion to impose a fine on the some
what crestfallen member Of house
which never before had been hailed into
,ourt a. a defendant notwithstanding
what they had done There are indi-
iations in this action that there has
been a real lcveling down as the result
II the coming Of more nearly demo-
ratio form OF government. The Pras-
tisn sWageer is being gradually worn
Town until it Is beginning TO stoop a
title.

ondary cause was the carelessness OF
the train crew of the freight in pro-
ceeding beyond Bartonsyille when they
were not absolutely sure that the order
did not read to stop at Bartonsvlle,
instead of Bellows Falls, as they inter-
preted the scrawl Here was the case
OF the injection of the human element
into train accidents to a superlative
degree. In fact. it was almost entirely
a case of the human element being re-
sponsible rather than the mechanical
or inanimate element. That such gross
carelessness should creep into railroad
Ing is not at all reassuring to the pub
lie. which entrusts itself to the mercies
of those two elements, human and in
animate; and nothing but stringent ef-
forts to eliminate the possibility OF
such carelessness will tend to restore
confidence such as any railroad desires
to have Probably the Rutland rail-
road is no different than any other
line; there are always the weak cogs
in the machine. And inasmuch as there
are such weak cogs, it is the duty OF
the railroad administration to do what
IL can TO make railroad travel and traf-
fc reasonably safe and certain. One
of these efforts would seem to be, first,
to insist on legible orders and, second,
to insist on strict adherence to such
orders. That 10 lives had to be sacfl-
feed in order to bring the warning
sharply enough is unfortunate in the
extreme; but the findings of the public
service commission ought to be produc5
tive of results not only on the Rutland
railroad but also upon all others.

have been issued in such abundance by
various departments in recent years.
without specific authorization OF the
Joint congressional committee on PRINT

ARMED with such authority, the
Joint printing committee is of the opin-
ion that it cannot only save much val
liable print paper at time when 1t Is
extremely scarce, but that IT can also
curtail the waste of thousands OF dol
lars of expenditures on administration
press agents salaries"
This is the most sensible proposal
that has poked its nose out Of the
melee of much tomfoolery in wash
ington in many a silyery moon No

popular sentiment Several things, no
doubt, have contributed to it. The for.
mer service man, who was counted
upon by the proponents of compulsory
training to be a missionary In lts be
half, has failed to show any enthnsl-
asm. He is in most cases either luke
warm or altogether opposed. His ex-
perienee at the cantonments, while toll

approaching adventure overseas, dld
not impress him as something that ey.
erv Young American should be called
upon to undergo in time OF peace. NOT
do these former soldiers warm up to
the plan Of giving the regular officers
of the army any expanded scope Tor
the exercise of their authority.
The farmers, too, are almost united
ly arrayed against any scheme OF uni
yersal service. They believe, and doubt
less with good reason, that anything
of the sort would accentuate the labor
shortage. which is now one OF Their
chief worries. Women voters every
where generally look upon the plan
with disfavor, as is not altogether UNI
natural Add to all these elements
the people who are pacifists by TEN,

Keen the Audience Guessing.

At intervals the various newspapers
of the state are moved to speak OF the
discourtesy OF theatre audiences and
the last one to comment on the com
mon occurrence of an assembly trying
to leave the theatre before the con
clusion of the last act is the Burllng
ton News. So they do this in Burling-
ton, too. Are theatre audiences all
alike! At the beginning of show we
all remove our hats that those behind
us may see the stage better. There
must be a scattering few who would
really like TO see the entire perform
ance, but these few are prevented by
a barricade of coats, furs and millinery
and generally give 1t up and join the
rush with the rest. Perhaps some day
playwrights will plan last acts that
will keep the people guessing to the
finish.-Brattlebor Reformer.

WANTS oNE.LEG MAN.
New England Farmer, Minus Limb,
Wants Help.

No one with two sound, active legs
can hold this job. A farmer living in
New England has written the Ameri-
can land service, which is recruiting
farm workers at headquarters in the
Lexington theatre, asking for help dur
ing the summer, but restricting the
applicant to one leg. The idea is that
there may be a wounded soldier who
answers the qualification.
The farmer insists also that the APP
plicant be married, the wife TO assist
in the household duties, The special
reason for the pedal limitation appears
from the farmers letter.
81 am well aware of what a one
legged man is able to do" he wrote

Restrictions on Paper Waste.

A recent Washington press dispatch
which will be received with JOY by
newspaper publishers throughout the
country, reads like this:
Departmental extravaganza, par
ticularly in the output Of publicity, has
received another wallop in the adop.
ton of two drastic measures attached

tive, executive and judicial appropria-
ton bill.

Expense of Travel.

The northern Vermont people who
complain that it takes So worth of
gasoline TO run their automobiles 100
miles, are reminded that you can walk
1000 miles on 50 worth Of half soles.--
st. Johnsbury Caledonian.
Incidentally and relating directly to
something that few going-somewhere
people seem to realize is the fact that
one can travel 100 miles by train for So
and war tax, whereas it takes about
SIS to $40 net to drive ear that dis
lance under the most favorable condi-
tions. The automobile is not an eco
nomical method OF travelling unless it
can be driven for the benefit of five
people or more--Rutland Herald.
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1920-04-19
No Compulsory Service.

Congress will make no provision for
compulsory military service in the army
bill now pending. A year ago one
could not be sure of this; but to-day
the question is practically settled.
Whatever the benefits Of any such plan
might be, the country as a whole does
not want it, and Congress will be gov
erned accordingly. The proposal has now
taken the form of optional service with
provision for the training of those who
desire it.
What is the reason for this swing in
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1920-04-19

II is difficult to understand the men,
tality of two boys, aged seven or eight
years, who went through the cemetery
at Milton on a systematic plan of de-
struction of property, tipping over
headstones and markers, smashing
some of the stones and doing other
damage such as the ripping up of dec
orations of graves. The total damage
done by the youngsters is said to run
into the hundreds of dollars. Without
doubt the two boys stand in need of
some convincing discipline to teach
them the enormity of their offense
against the dead as well as against the
laws of the state of Vermont. It is
hard to believe that such youngsters
went about their work with a deliber-
ate attempt to commit crime.

There ought to be large attendance
OF the members of the Barre Board OF
Trade at that organizations annual
meeting to be held in the granite man
ufacturers' rooms on Tuesday evening
The continued usefulness of the Board
of Trade depends upon the cooperation
which the individual members give;
