New York. Jan. 5.-Business on
the stock exchange today was al
most wholly matter of profess
sional operations. the net result,
after considerable confusion of
movement, favoring an increasing
ly confident short interest.
Trading was smaller than at any
period in the last fortnight, but the
weakness of certain obscure indus
trials and specia1ties denoted a re-
currence of the December liquida-
tion in those issues.
In its broader aspects the most
interesting and significant feature
was the strength Of foreign ex-
change, especially the British rate,
which continued its advance to. the
highest quotations in several
months.
Coppers and General Asphalt
were foremost in the moderate
rally of the last hour at gains of
1 " to 31a points. but oils, rails and
steels Jagged after announcement
of the cut in the Midvale dividend.
Sales $4,000 shares.
The money market pursued an
unruffled course both as to call
and time loans, but leaders evinced
more liberal spirit regarding re-
newals. FtS
Liberty issues were conspicuous
features of a strong bond market,

tions to recent gains Copper is

about $1,000 outlay in improvements.
j. HI. Stacy, Selectman H. w. CUT
ting. F. S. Bowker. and C. B. Minott
of Phippsburg appeared for the &c.,
900 resolve in favor of Phippsburg in
completing the road to Popham Beach,
via Parker Head. The 1917 Legisla-
ture appropriated $4,000, to which the
town added $1,000. This was spent and
the $4,000 is asked to complete the
job. which will give a good road to
one of the finest beaches in the State
and great summer resort section.
Monmouth sent a large party to
speak for the appropriation for re-
pair of Dillon Spring road. The re-
solve asked for $4,000 but it was said
the work would cost $4,000. About
$1100 was spent last year, when a sec
ton of the new work sank in a muck
hole and work was suspended. The
fill will be about 200 feet. The Fish
Hatcheries road can be repaired at
some less expense, but the citizens
prefer the shorter by ga or q mile
road. ,e%.t-
Rep. Wadsworth of Winthrop con-
Quoted the case and Selectman Trott
reviewed the situation, with Engineer
L. d. Rarrows of the Highway Com
mission explained the work done, the
muck hole conditions and the esti-
mated cost of $4,000 which would be
wholly an estimate. -
Ten other matters were scheduled
for hearing at the same session.

INLAND WATERS

Only two matters were discussed at
the hearing before the committee on
Inland Waters on Tuesday afternoon.
The first was the matter of increas-
ing and amending the charter of the
Scion Lumber Co., in such a manner
as to allow it the right to construct
dams and piers in Fall brook in the
towns of Bingham and Brighton and
the right to collect toll privileges.
Mr.. Starbird, manager Of the Scion
Lumber Co., explained what was need
ed and desired. 1t was stated that al
ready $4,000 had been expended in
improving the stream and that the
company intended to expend from So
600 to $4,000 more for that purpose.
Mr.. Mcneil appeared for. the S. D.
Warren Co, which owns large tracts
in that section, and spoke in favor Of
the act. s- >" =
George G., Weeks, representing the
American Realty Co., appeared in ia
Vor of the act to authorize the Amer
lean Realty Co, to construct and
MAINTAIN dam across the ST. John
river in Township 9, Range IS, w. e.
L. s., Somerset county, and to locate,
erect and maintain piers and booms
in said river above said dam. He
claimed that all the lumber sent down
the river at that point was owned by
the American Realty Co. Some law

tive session. +"

numerous Wants of Highways and
Bridges, All Uroent

Room NO. was crowded to the
doors Tuesday afternoon on highways
and bridges hearings.
Drew Plantation asks $16,500 toad
ut i'll raising the necessary amount of
its share of the s125,000 cost of a new
bridge over the Mattawamkeag river,
the highway feeding large territory
and leading to the natural shipping
point of Wytopitlock. Chief Engineer
Paul d. Sargent of the Highway
commission explained the situation
and expressed the opinion that the
outlay is necessary Drew Plantation
has about $50 population, with about
$loS,ooo valuation and will be obliged
to borrow about $500 to make it's
share County Commissioners Rich
and Fowles both favored the appro-
priation. Mr. Sargent said the pres
ent wooden bridge could not be re-
paired to adequately suit the auto and
/ truck travel conditions.
Rep. Mclaughlin of Pembroke IA
vored the $4,000 asked by Pembroke for
repair of road in Pembroke IT is n
swampy piece of road, leading to Cal
ais. and hard to repair, with little
gravel nearby. Pembroke will prob
ably add $1,000 to this amount.
large delegation appeared from
Rome. Belgrade and Mt. Vernon in IA
Vor of the resolve asking $4,000 for each
o. 1921 and 1922 for repair of Narrows
road in those towns. Rep. G. G.
,, Downs of Mt. Vernon conducted the
case. The speakers were Charles A.

Mt. Vernon. Sen. c. o. Cobb of Ken
| nebec. Treasurer B. r. Cram of Mt.
Vernon and Mr.. Griffiths, the new pro-
prietor Of the summer hotel, The Cab
les.
The road is described as the natural
highway from Waterville to and
through these places, in horrible con-
dition. with nothing but rocks and
boulders in sight and nothing near to
repair. Every bit of material must be
carted In. There are three bridges and
part OF the road is under water eyerv
spring; with the rest so rocky and
narrow that 1t is unsafe for travel and
| impossible to pass in most places.
All agreed that the towns would be
liberal in appropriations for the same
purpose. They also said if in repair.
1T would open up fine scenic and
summer business section, beside CIV
ing the western parts connection with
the north and east. Some thought the
State owed that section a larger duty
in making the repairs than did the
towns.
The owner of the Gables hotel said
that he. had bought the property with
the hope that the road would be fixed,
giving him access and exit, but If it
is not, the property is for sale at $4,000

PENSIONS
Larger Pensions Urged for Our Blind
Private PAnsian casa -.

lar er PENSIONS urged Tor Our Blind
Private Pension Case.
An outline of the work being done
in the State for the blind was given
by Frank G. Baker of Gardiner. di-
rector of the Maine Association of
the Blind, and he urged the Joint
legislative committee on pensions to
do. something toward the provision
for a bureau or field agent to look
after the interests of the blind of the
State. during a hearing on the re-
solve providing for an increase from
5000 to 5000 per year in State pen-
sions for the sightless. After listen
ing to the remarks Of Mr.. Baker and
asking numerous questions the COM
mittee went into executive session to
consider the matter and formulate
it's report.
Mr.. Baker told the committee that
the present laws governing the care
OF the blind in Maine are Inadequate
in some respects and that the funds
are not being distributed to. the best
advantage of the blind or the State.
He stated that some of the pension
ers are receiving too much money
and others not enough because of the
fact that there is no one to make a
thorough investigation of the condi-
tons existing and to see to it that
the funds are equitably distributed.
He said that the original pension
law contemplated the care of some
200 people and that 500 applications
were Immediately filed. Mr., Baker
estimated that there are about 1900
blind persons in Maine at the present
time.
The committee also took up the
matter of granting pension to
Josephine +. Boothby, Of Farming
dale, widow of William Boothy and
daughter of Francis whitney, a vet
eran of the Civil war. The case was
presented by e. d. Hayford of the
State auditors Office, and Rep. Bar
ney of Chelsea. 4
Mr.. Hayford told the committee
that Mrs. Boothby cared for. her
mother, who was q bedridden invalid,
for many years before her death, and
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1921-02-09

that Mr.. Boothby left her. without
means of support at the time of his
death some years ago. Mrs. Boothby
had been able to care for herself un-
til a little more than year ago when
she was injured in an accident in
Augusta and since that time has
been in i'll health. Mrs. Boothby
applied for State pension a year
ago, but did not receive it because of
the fact that she did not come under
the pension class according to the
ruling of the department.

workshops and mercantile establish
ments to AZ hours per week instead
of 81 as at present before the joint

lative representative Of the Maine

and Cyrus N. Blanchard of Wilton,
representing the manufacturers, said
that the opponents of the measure
wanted to be fair, and he was in

wrong to postpone the hearing for
three weeks as some one had sug
gested. 1.-THE bill will not be given u
fair chance if the committee waits
for three weeks before a hearing is
