The hand of the bolshevik is appar-
ent, too, in northern Italy. Radicals,
most of them foreigners, are trying to
get control of the communist move
ment that sprang up there and to foil
the efforts of the labor confederation
to bring about a compromise between
the workers and the employers. In
some instances they drove contented
employees from factories and seized
the plants. Though the movement
was spreading considerably, there
was no reason to change the predic-
ton that it would ultimately fall but
the probability that the employers
would offer to the men equal controf
and profit sharing Increased. Premier
Giolitti finally took hand in the dis
pute. inviting representatives of the
employers and workers in the metai
plants to meet him in Turin. Genoa
became storm center when the COM
munists there, led by some Russians
and Hungarians, seized merchant ship
ping and mounted cannon, announc-
ing they would fight If naval vessels
were sent. In answer to this the gov
eminent Sent squadron of battle
ships and destroyers. The foreign
leaders who were arrested were all In
possession of large amounts OF
money.
Seizure of the land began in Italy
when communist peasants took pos
session of several large farms AS
some of these belong to high church
officials it was expected the Vatican
would protest to the government and
demand protection Of the property.

HARTFORD, Ct, Sept. 22.-Connecti-
cut, through its general assembly yester-
day afternoon ratified the 18th or suffrage
amendment in a special session convened
by Gov. HoIeomb for that specific pur-
pose. The senate first acted on a certi-

from Washington, ratifying 25 to 0, and
the house coneurred, 1914 to g.

adopted the resolution passed a week
ago at a special session which the gov

done to make certain the legality of rati-

GOVERNMENT COSTS
$15,OOO,OOO A DAY
Eight Times as Much as Before the
War - No Signs of Relief from
N Heavy Expenditures. e

WASHINGTON, Sept y = With
prices generally receding and even. the
high cost of living checked statesmen
and sober thinking officials in Washing
ton are turning inquisitively to the high
cost Of government in the United States.
1t is costing Uncle Sam something like
eight times as much to run his establish
ment now as it did in 1914, before the
European war began its devastation, and
there is no further relief IN sight in IL
quidating war costs at least for a year.
All appropriations for the current year
have been made. They carry up to June
80 next and they aggregate nearly ST.
0OO, 900 900 81, S59, s9O, 1927 to be exact.
1t is costing an average of better than
Sl5, 700 a working day to run the
government now as compared with but
a trife more than 100000 a day back
in l9l4, when the country was "holler-
ing over billion dollar congresses and
the Democrats were promising economy.

REALTY CO. TO RECOVER.
Continued from rage ~

the logs could not all be held at Hins-
dale. About 1900 cords went into the
Connecticut, of which 1900 cords We're
held at Hinsdale and 500 cords floated
down the river, part of it being stopped
Mt the Vernon dam and part at Turn
ers Falls and later hauled back to the
rossing mill.
The boom was repaired March %,
but the Connecticut did not become
drivable until April 3, when the boom
was cut by the Realty Co.'S men and
the wood passed into the Connecticut.
On April ] there was held at the
plaintiff boom at the mouth of West
river about | 800 cords of pulp wood,
all brought from points outside of Brat
tleboro and destined for the Hinsdale
mill. At the request of the listers the
company fled tax inventory, but it
specified that the 1900 cords of wood
was not taxable by the town of Brat
tlebopo, but was in transit in interstate
commerce.. 1t was appraised at $780,
900 and taxed for $48450, which tax
was paid under protest, and suit was
brought
It is urged by the town that the pay
ment was not made until after suit was
brought, but the court concludes other
wise, finding that the date of the check
was clerical error.
The above facts are taken from the
court s findings of fact.
