Burlington did a fine thing in secur-
ing a thousand membership to the
Chamber of Commerce, the accomplish
ment being brought about amid great
enthusiasm. If some degree of that
enthusiasm can be retained through
out, the year and years to come Bur
lington ought to be distinctly better
off as civic organization with the
financial and moral backing of more
than a thousand members in a city
no larger than Burlington can do a
great deal Of good. Those who put
through the drive successfully are to
be congratulated.

A reason for the present deadlock
between Gov Hartness and the legis-

Charles |. Button of Middlebury, who
writes to his home paper that the

good and able man" but unfortunate
" he thinks and tries 70 express him
self in terms OF his favorite astrono-
my and the legislature does not I'M
ierstand him yet" Representative
Button adds the hope that the House
and Senate viii support Gov. HARNESS
because of the belief that he "has
plans that viii be to our advantage IL
be Is given a free hand To work them

s perhaps an indication Of less hos
tile feeling toward the executive BY
the legislature and. perhaps, of de-

have TO be a compromise in order to

Sympathy goes with France in her
stand for reparations from Germany,
however much the feeling may have
been attacked by the various pleas
about Germany's inability to pay, etc
There is a solid conviction that France
ought to be well repaid for her wrongs
and ner losses and that Germany
should be made to sacrifice much more
than she has sacrificed in order to re-
pay For a losing nation in a war
which she herself started, Germany
Is not suffering unduly, in fact, is no
worse of than many of her intended
victims. Germany ought to be made
to mortgage her future for half a cen
fury, if necessary, in order to make
reasonable reparations for the wrong
she started back in 1914.

ESTABLISHMENT OF

AIM OF M0CHlZUKl

Washington, Nov. 90, (By the
Associated Press) Withdrawal of
the japanese guards at Hankow,
Picking and Ticntsin and other
points simultaneously with other
foreign troops in China is one
subject Japan should consider at
present, according to kotaro
Mochizuki, opposition leader in
the japanese diet who is here as
an observer for his party.
Representative Nochizuki, who
will leave here December 10, en-
route for Japan where he Will
attend the sessions of parliment.
in a statement today declared
that If the new Japanese cabinet
lacks the power to impress itself
upon the conference or the Amer
lean government does not take
cognizance Of Japan's legitimate
claims he would continue his
appeal to succeeding Japanese and
American administrations until
Japans position in the world is
fully and securely established.
Taking up the hina-Japanese
treaty of 1915 known as the
Twenty One Demands" he char
acterized as unfair the unfayorable
criticism directed against Japan
for her failure to notify the pow
ers of the existence of the fifth
group of clauses in the demands
on China. These clauses were
attacked as constituting a clear
violation OF China's sovereignty.
They were not pushed by Japan
which said that they dealt with
long outstanding questions and
were not ''new" eXaction.

"THE BARRICADE" HITS
SHAM OF PREJUDICE:
NOW AT THE PASTTME

Chief honors in "The Barri-
cade," released by re Pictures
corporation, and now being
screened at the Pastime theateT
as the feature attraction, 90 to
William Christy Cabanne and DR..
Daniel Carson Goodman, who
wrote the story.
Founded upon the premise thai
genuine love and human under
standing do more to tighten the
burdens of the world than false
pride and prejudice. "The Barrl-
cade" is a powerful preachment
against the evils of bigotry and thu
untoward influences of sham.
One of the means by which Mr.
Cabanne and Dir. Goodman estah
fish their point is the deep affe =
ton that obtains between Iaoof
Solomon, a kindly old Hebrew. and
Michael Brennan. an elderly Irish
man, who are business partners
when the story begins Solomon
at Brennan's death, takes the lat
ter's son Robert, and rears him as
his own.
But then the barricade arises
and complications begin. Upon
them is the plot builded and In
the hands of Mr.. Cabanne it be-
comes entertainment Of the most
delightful character.
Although 1t contains a powerful
lesson 1.-THE Barricade" is not a
sermon, but n highly interesting
tale in which the whole vast pub
lie will find a treat.
