PANAMA'S SERVICE.

The United States government was not
wholly selfish when it built the Panama
canal There was keen realization of
the military advantages which its owner
ship would bring. and of course much was
expected in a commercial way, but every
one knew that the whole world would
profit.
Statistics just made available indicate
the benefits which the rest of the world
is reaping, and make plain Americas
gains.
In the first years of the canals opera
tions British shipping represented Al to
40 per cent of the traffic. These last
years, 1918. 1919. and 1920, the vessels
of the British. empire have made but 81
per cent of the net tonnage and 81, per
cent of the scargoes. The growth of the
American merchant marine could hardly
be more effectively illustrated. .
The American trades is. mostly coast
wise, but the British essentially imperial.

ropean trade with the west coast of South
America was second with TAT 900 tons,

RECONSTRUCTION.
Al TnNIOTIVF

1t was feared by many year ago that
the automobile business would not be
able to stand the strain of reconstruction
that because it had expanded so
greatly. and was in some ways less nee
essary than certain other big industries,
it would come to a catastrophe as soon
as the general retrenchment began. Yet
the automobile industry is still doing bus
mess. Indeed, at a time of widespread
dullr9s+. certain important branches of IL
are doing more business than ever before.
Generally speaking, the industry has
landed on It's ffesggft = - iHs =
1t has done so, clearly enough, by lead
ing in the reconstruction. Its leadership
has consisted in the drastic cutting of
boom prices and the elimination of the
wasteful processes that accompanied the
boom.
Henry Ford. occupying strategic
position at the bottom of the industry, 50
far as prices are concerned-making the
base of the pyramid-was shrewd enough
to start the price-cutting and the cutting
out of dead wood, and all of the other
manufacturers, from hia immediate COM
petitors up to those whose cars are ex-
elusive luxuries for the rich, have been
forced to follow his example.
A. a result. the industry is regarded
aow as on a safe basis. Some of the
manufacturers, unable to stand the eff
cheney pace set. may fall by the wayside,
but the big majority will doubtless pull
through, and the whole industry will be
able to face the future with greater as
surance.
incidentally a great service has. been
rendered to business in general by this
example The resumption of automobile
activity means increased activity along
many lines. 1t inspires far more hope
| full public attitude.
1t is fortunate that some of the other
| industries, now in the doldrums, have had
no radically reconstructive Ford to poke
them out of their troubles.

IF every automobiles who violates the
traffic laws in his home town were sen

colored sign bearing the word guilty
upon the front of his car, for a period of
days or weeks, it might help to reduce
the number of traffic accidents consider
ably. So thinks a private citizen who
has been working with the police in
checking up traffic offenders. BY his
plan the sign would be carried in addi-
ton to fines and all other usual penal
ties. The length of time for displaying
it would be indicated by the judge in ac-
cordance with the gravity of the offense

The Meddler believes the selectmen
would be justified in buying enough more
road oil to<give the principal highways
about town another application this fall
even if they had to borrow $1,000 to. pay
for it. His belief in this regard is based
on the conviction that another coat of oil
would save its entire cost in maintenance
expense on the highways next spring.
Why not put the proposition up to Road
Commissioner DUDE on that basis and
let him have the oil to use this fall on
the explicit understanding that he will
lay aside enough of his next springs road
money to pay the bill? The AIeddler is
certain in his own mind that the high
ways would benefit by this arrangement.

THE ELEVATOR
The elevator goes UP and down
Depending how the elevator man werks
it,
He starts it slow wen he feels all rite
And wen he don't he jerks it.
1t saves you wawking meny steps
If you're up and wunt to go down,
Or if you're down alreddy and wunt to
go up
1t jerks jest the other way roun.
Some like to go up and down suddin
And some like to go gentle as a rose,
and quick
But watever your likes and dislikes are,
You half to go like the elevator goes.
All you half to do is push the bell
And stand down there by the gate,
And if it comes rite down you step rite
And if it don't you jest stay there and
waite.

The Meddler
eff the coat fits you. put 1t on"

Greenfield voters took an important
step last week when they voted to sub
stitute the limited town meeting for the
mass meeting form of government. To be
sure. the vote was not fwhat might be
called thoroughly Representatives. only
49, out of total of J.6S2 casting their
ballots one way or the other, but among
those who did vote there was practically
no difference of opinion so it may safely
be assumed that the townspeople in gen
eral are not opposed to the change even
if they are not widely enthusiastic about
it. Under the new plan. as The Meddler
understands it. Greenfield will be divided
into precincts of approximately 600 vot
ers each. and these precincts will select
persons to represent them in town meet
ing. the number in each precinct being
so limited that the total membership will

\ fortunate incident of the acceptance

Recorder points out. is that the entire
business of the<town will come under I'M
flied control, school, water and fire de-
partments coming within the administra-
tion of the newly created body Another
advantage is that Greenfield will con-
tinue to be in government what it is in
fact, simply a New England town. 1t
is saved the artiiciality of a city name
and a city organization. Nothing can
prevent the success of the new DIan ex-
cept utter indifference on the part of
the voters. They have the important
duty of selecting go of their number to
be members of the town meeting and
much will depend on the choices made
but there is the saving fact that the num-
Der is so large that it can hardly fail
to be representative both of the ncigbbor
hoods and the varied interests of the peo-
pie. The risk is minor compared with
the choice of a few members of a CITY
council.
Possibly Brattleboro with voting list
hardly more than half the size of Green
fields is not yet large enough to need
the limited town meeting plan. yet there
are numerous features about il which
would be of equal advantage here. Ger
