THE COBBLER AND HIS LAST

Before proceeding with COM

they know more about every mans

considered that it knew more about

PRESS COMMENT
Governor Clement Looking Backward
~, Do

Governor Clement Looking Backward
bennington Banner)
Governor Clement has turned down
the unanimous request of the Repub-
lican state committee asking for a
special session to act on the equal
suffrage amendment Probably moth
ing else could ne expected from MI.
Clement. Due to i'll health and ad-
vancing years tie governor has lost
his perspective and persists in looking
backward instead of forward. The
arguments he uses are without weight
and will satisfy only those so set in
opposition to equal suffrage that they
can hardly be expected to look at the
question on its merits. The issue just
now is out of proportion to most ma
tional questions with which Vermont
has to do, for the reason that the self
willed view taken by Governor Glenn
ent will probably prevent ratification
Of the amendment in season to give
the women of the United States the
vote for president this year. Up to
March LIST, SO states had ratified and
three more are required. The pos
sibilities are West Virginia, Delaware,
Florida, Washington, Connecticut and
Vermont. All of these states will
eventually ratify and there is no
doubt as to the final outcome. Gov
elnor Hay Of Washington has al
ready announced that he will call
special session in season to act. AS
it now stands Governor Clement can
apparently block ratification for this
year. 1t does not seem ~o~7'h|e that
a man who has been honored by Yer
mont a has Governor Clement
could be so contemptuous of the
state committee and so unfair to the
women of his state nut actions are the
test rather than words. Apparently
Governor Clement does not believe
with Emerson:
Every line of history inspires con-
fidence that we shall not go far
wrong; that things mend. That is the
moral of all we learn. that it warrants
Hope, the prolific mother of reforms.
Our part is plainly not TO throw our
selves across the track, to block i'm
provement and sit till we are stone,
but to watch the uprise of successive
mornings and to conspire with the
new works of rev days.

THE PEACE TREATY
SITUATION

The statesmen at Washington have
now talked eight months about the
peace treaty. The people have had
no chance to do much talking that
can be heard at Washington. But
that does not mean that they are not
intere Stci. >. tn c>Itl;ly Senti-
ment of deep Indignation is mani
tested that the world settlement ha
been held up so long.
Europe is on the verge of anarchy,
as it struggles with hunger and des-
pair. America is the dominating fac
tor, and nothing can be done until
America is willing to act. Everything
waits the pleasure of America, who
dallies while statesmen bubble.
If the people could get chance to
act on this question, they would set
tie it very promptly, and on a basis
making for world peace and assuring
the safety of America.
The great majority of the Ameri-
can people want some kind Of a
League of Nations. They believe that
it takes united action to get things
done in this world. They do not see
how peace can be secured unless some
kind of organization is formed
through which the nations can act
together. At the same time they do
not propose to sacrifice the indepen-
dent rights of this country. They do
not intend to have any American
army ordered into Europe by a
League of Nations, without the full
and free consent and approval of the
of The American
people.
If this peace treaty becomes an is
sue in the coming campaign, 1t Is an
issue that will cut very deep and wide
Those who have been Quibbling over
trihing differences, who have thwart-
ed the desire of the people for prompt
action, or who have failed to protect
the right Of .,c United States TO
maintain its own independent rights
under all circumstances, will F-,d
themselves marked for slaughter.

WHITE MOUNTAIN RAILS
UNDER 40 FEET OF SNOW

BOSTON, March Railroads, in
dustries and community volunteers
combined their efforts again today to
restore passenger and freight trans
portation facilities that were cut off
in Northern New England bv thu
storm on Saturday A digging out
holiday was proclaimed in several
cities.
Great snowbanks and the ice form
ed by the sudden drop in temperature
caused the most serious tie-up of the
winter in many places. The situation
in Maine, New Hampshire and Yer
mont was the most serious in many
years.
Hundreds of railroad passengers
were marooned in small cities and
towns where trains had been stalled
since Saturday nj in some
places the housing and feeding of
these refugees became a serious prob
lem. Some of them were relieved last
night and the railroad conferred their
efforts in rcscuing the others today.
Service between Port -'-'~''-h N. H.,
and Boston was resumed after a suS-
pension of nearly 36 hours. Trains
from Boston ran over the Eastern
division tracks only as for 90 Beverly.

ton and ability, and it does not follow
that because its criticism seems for
the moment destructive that it is
necessarily striving to pull down any
| thing or any one. Just at present
this newspaper would be deeply sat
isfed if every man would return, like
the cobblel, to his last, then indefat-
igably and intelligently stick to it.
1t may be said generally that the
curse of our present industrial and
) business situation is the lack of plain,
faithful, skillful "cobblers," by which
we mean men trained to certain
useful if humble handicraft or occu-
patton, essential to the progress of
big things. Such things are bungled
if undertaken by novices, and enough
bungling stops the whole works" or
sends the boss into sanitarium.
Our former cobblers are trying to
be statesmen or Office managers. Our
clerks and statesmen are in the movies
Our farmers have gone to railroading
Our car cleaners are janitors. Our
school teachers are turning to steno-
graphers Or milliners. Our printers
are going in for publicity. Our car
penters are shipbuilding. Our ma
sons arc contractors, and so it goes.
Meanwhile. to fill the place of our
steady, faithful cobblers, statesmen,
car cleaners, etc, we must choose be-
tween the unframed boy or girl and
the supo rannuated inefficient. The
former no sooner learns the rudi-
ments of his craft-and expects to be
we'll pal for his lcarning-than he
moves Oh. The unosleli7oA hae-hoo,s
remain and possibly a few of the
more unenterprising youths, but
where a-e the cobblers of yesterday?
1t Is Ut so much question of pay,
because, sooner or later, that mat
ter adjusts itself. 1t is an underlying
hankering for ch"~~'" 49, the hazard
ing of new fortunes. 1t is an unwill-
ingness 70 stick to the last and pro-
duce a good job for good days
wage.
Much of this may be chargeable to
the war and the way the war was
run from Washington. Men were
Jumped by political manipulation
SO that he "boss of the shop might
find himself taking orders from the
iremen. Message boys were quail
fed as signal corps experts. Half
trained doctors commanded distin-
guished surgeons. Plattsburg "hur-
ly-up lie utenants" tried to teach old
soldiers their business.
1t was all very fine and miraculous,
but it hurt the rank and file of cob
blers. 1t sent r,c'- - to civil life
uneasy under the ranking mark of
the boss. They "jacked the Job" at
the sli yhtest provocation. They
weren't satisfied with the pay; they
wanted part of the boss pay as well.
All this musts adjust itself, and
presently we shall get back to first
principle when the man that owns
the business will have something to
say about running it.
Meanwhile, the reward of the man
who knows his job and sticks to his
last will be certain and inevitable.
What the English call our "beastly
American versatility" is likely to
run its course, and the expert, even
in patching shoes, is coming INTO his
own.
Boss and worker, cobbler and cleo
tlical engineer, shipwlight and black.
smith will presently find their niche
and-God bless the cobbler who will
stick to his last.

out from st. Johnsbury was twice de-

noon the work train started out with

reached st. Johnsbury at 2 p. m.
The work train then started back TO
