NEW PROBLEMS THAT AWAIT US

Mrs. Nancy L. SHOEMAKER of Con

Wednesday evening at clock. Her

charged.
The club engaged Mrs. Schoonmaker
to come here in connection with the
citizenship classes which are being
held She has been lecturing in the
state during February and this made
it possible for the local club to secure
her services. She was one of the lead
ing speakers at the school for citi-
zenship for the state of New Hamp-
shire last summer and has given talks
in many cities of the country, devot
ing her time during January to work

Fireproofina Concrete Columns.

We have been wont to look upon
concrete as capable of resisting a great
deal of heat, and it may seem strange
to think of coating it with a fireproof
material. However, there are condi-
tons under which this is necessary.
Tile bureau of standards has been in
vestigating the condition of concrete
which has passed through con6agra-
tons, and has found that if the CON
crete Is made with gravel, particularly
siliceous gravel. there is tendency
for the stones to burst in extreme
heat, which disintegrates the concrete.
Accordingly it is recommended that
gravel be avoided wherever possible,
but If impossible the gravel concrete
may be protected from extreme heat
by coating it with an inch of cement
held in place by a wire mesh. Plasters
may also be used in which asbestos is
the principal Observation-Disclosures

During the War

MONTPELIER, Feb 25.-It is appro-
rate for young men to consider the war
department special campaign to recruit
the regular army and the national guard.
For the week beginning Feb. -, it is asked
that special encouragement be given to re
cruiting The regular army, as never be-
fore, educatcs and trains citizens, not only
to become soldiers but to return to the
communities whence they came, better
producers and wage earncrs-better Amer

mess or domestic responsibility cannot
give their entire time to army service, but
gladly contribute a portion OF their spare
time as members of the national guard.
VeTmonters have never failed to stand by
the flag, nor to respect the uniform of our
citizen soldiers The excitement of the
World war is waning, but duty, none the
less solemn and imperative, calls for sol
diers to preserve the country of Washing

Nermonters are invited to enlist in the

our citizenship. The country needs at all

Thinks Protection and an
Anti-Dumping Law Is
Better Protection
HIS ANNOUNCEMENT
CAUSES SURPRISE
Aids Getting Dyestuffs Bill Through
Last House - Fears License System
Would Involve Government Control
and Favoritism
and Favoritisnl.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Representa-
tive James w Fordney (Mich.). chairman
OF the house ways and means committee,
announced his opposition to the general
principle OF licensing the imports Of dive
stufis or any other product into the United
states. He thinks protective tariff and
anu-dumping legislation preventing the
sale in this country of foreign products
at lower price than the market figures
IN the countries in which they are manu-
iactured are sufficient to protect American
industry against the German dye trust.
he announcement was a surprise be
cause Mr.. Fordney was instrumental in
passing the dyestuffs bill through the
house last December The bill included a
VISION allowing the tariff commission
to institute a licensing system over these
imports 1t now is pending in the senate
finance committee Mr.. Fordnev saws.
The best plan for protecting the Amcri
can dye industry, in my estimation, is
the imposition of adequate import du
ties and the enactment Of an effective
''anti-dumplng law to prevent unfair prac
tees by foreign competitors.
With the ending of the war and the de
mands for economy and relief from burden
some taxation, find myself strongly pred
JUDGED against the creation of additional
boards or commissions or the granting o.
new or added powers OF control by the GOV
crment over business.
The requirement of a license to import
appears to me to be a step in the wron!
direction 1t adds to the present compli
cation of government control over industry
aud opens a large field for favoritism
The encouragement Of American indus
tries by import duties has been most ef
iectlvc in the past and | cannot help bu
look on attempts now to control import
by license assaults upon the proved policl
of tariff protection
In conclusion and in support Of m,
contention for the elimination Of useless
governmental agencies for the sake of econ
omy ! desire to call attention to the fact
that for the year 1916 Just prior to tho
war, the appropriations for Independent
bureaus and offices amounted to S7.22l
1903; while the estimates for the year 1927
two wears after the armistice amount t.
the immense sum OF $500 40 .440 for indie
pendent bureaus and offices This i'm
mense sum now goes to government agen
cies not under any government depart
mcnt It is nearly as much as was nc
quircl before the war to pay the entir
operating expenses Of the government.

Antarctic "SheIf Ice -

From the work of recent explora-
tons, Sir Douglas MawSon concludes
that the rock foundation on which the
Antarctic ice cap rests is very irregu-
lar. partly above sea level and partly
below. and that its thickness, which is
very variable. may reach maximum
of several thousand feet. Under the
thickest portions the static pressure at
the base may be as great as one ton
per square inch. Under such a cover
ing there may be a considerable accu-
mutation of ground heat, and it is as
sumed that the under portion OF the ice
mass is undoubtedly soft and plastic.
, Where the sea breaks up the ice at a
rate faster than the flow, the sea front
is substantially the coast line. But
elsewhere. as In the Great Ross barrier
and the Shackleton shelf, the supply
of ice exceeds the rate of erosion at
the sea front. and the overflow from
the land maintains thick sheet of
shelf ice" extending far out to sen.
The sea front of the ice cap, at the
present rate of advance or flowing out,
is estimated to have left the center in
the seventh century of our era.

Hiding a Kings Statue.

The fine equestrian statue of King
Charles ], which was hidden in London
for protection during the war. has been
brought to light again. The statue,
which was cast during the reign of the
monarch, according to reports has not
enjoyed the uneventful career per-
mitted to most works of its kind. 1t
was executed for Sir Richard Weston,
afterward earl of Portland, who in
tended to place it as an ornament in
his garden at Rochampton. But this
function it never fulfilled, for it was
seized By parliament during the Civil
war and sold to one John Rivett, n
brazier, to he broken up John, how
ever, being royalist. hid the statue,
and, by selling hundreds of bronze
knife handles purporting to be made
from it, disarmed any parliamentary
suspicious in the matter. On the res
toration of Charles II in 1860 Rivett
produced the statue, which was
claimed by Sir Richards son. The
braZier refused to yield it, and after
years Of dispute it was eventually pre-
scented to King Charles ii and erected
on the spot formerly covered by the
original Charing cross.

CARPENTERS GET IS CENTS.
And 44-Hour Week Also, to Take Effect
on April 1, in Greenfield.

GREENFIELD, Feb. pa meeting
Of the contractors and carpenters of
Greenfield was held recently to discuss
wages, hours and plans for building the
houses for the Greenfield Housing cor
poration. This meeting followed the
suggestion made by F. w Burnham,
president of the Greenfield Homes corpor-
alton, that the contractors get together
with the carpenters and talk the matter
over then present to the housing com
mittec their plans. After discussing the
subject at length a minimum wage of 81
cents an hour was agreed upon by those
present which is - cents more than is
being paid at present This had to be
done because of the scarcity of help here
and the offer of even higher wages in the
surrounding towns. some of which are
paying better than 80 cents an hour for
a minimum wage While no binding
agreement was made between the car
penters and contractors on the matter
Of wages it is thought that with s. cents
for a minimum. enough men can be Sc
cured TO do the work as living conditions
in Greenfield are better than in some
other cities
A A hour week was decided upon be-
cause the carpenters felt that since the
painters and plumbers had Saturday
afternoon off they should also. This
means that production will be c,irtailed
somewhat. but with the painters ant
