accused the state hoard Of education of
having begged the appropriation from
the Carnegie foundation and said the
state was not being given one dollar

partnership between the state board

NEW MOVIE HOUSE
OPENED To-NIGHTH
Performance Displayed at Manager Ho-
bans Structure, Corner of Main
and Pearl Streets.

Doors TO the new moving picture
house at the corner of Pearl and Main
street will be thrown open wide to
patrons for the initial show this eve
ming, beginning at 6:45, instead OF
Monday evening as originally planned
and announced. Manager John Il. Ho-
ban made this known this morning,
having changed the opening date from
Monday evening because the building
and remodelling is practically com
pleted and in good condition to receive
the public. A First National produc-
ton, "The Yellow Typhoon," featuring
Anita Stewart, with the accompani-
ment of a four piece orchestra under
the leadership of Edwin w. Bruce, vio-
linist, will be some of the treats await
ing the Barre cinema admirers TINS
evening at this new theatre.
As vet the theatre has not been
named and probably will not be for
some time since the management con-
templates title test to determine the
most appropriate name. However, the
building construction, equipment and
facilities, and the attractiveness OF this
new movie house both inside and out
make it place of amusement which
Barre people will be likely to patron
ize.
The exterior Of the building has a
very neat appearance and as soon as
the marquis is completed will give a
bright appearance to distant points on
Main street with its strong illllmni-
nation over the colonial entrance.

Unanimous Vote Taken on
the Compromise
Measure
CLEARING UP DISPUTE
Owe RAPPOINTMENT
The Members Seemed AnXi-
Gus to Get Rid of the
Matter

The compromise highway depart
ment bill by which a state board of
three members and commissioner are
to be constituted started on its way
through the Vermont legislature to-
day when the House passed the bill,
under suspension of rules, and by "a
unanimous vote. Another feature of
the day in the legislature was the ac-
tion of the Senate in passing the bo-
vine tuberculosis bill setting aside
100000 annual for eradication of tu-
berculosis.
When the highway bill came up for
second reading this morning, Mr.. Oar
ling of Chelsea, chairman of the judi
ciary committee, explained that the
committee had put much time into con
sideration of the highway situation
from an unbiased standpoint. and that
this bin was the best solution Of the
situation which they had to offer.
"The interests Of Vermont are am
ply safeguarded under this bill" de
clared Mr.. Darling, "there is no Joker
in it."
The House evidently took this for
granted. for, the bill was ordered to a
third reading without dissenting
vote Mr.. Noble of West Rutland, saw
ing that he thought this highway mat
ter was SO important that it ought
to be settled before going home for the
week end, moved for suspension of the
rules and putting the bill on its pas
sage. Again by unanimous vote, the
House suspended the rules passed the
bill and refused reconsideration when
moved by Mr. Jackson of Burlington.

There has been little fear of freshet
this season. owing TO the comparatively
small amount of ice in the White river.
Little by little il had melted out or
broken up until Wednesday evening,
when the chief deposit in Blue Hill lake
moved out with little commOtion. FIX
perience teaches that the only possible
cause Of freshet would be an unusu-

abnormal hot spell, which would melt

To Get Around the Opinion Handed
Down By the Attorney General

general counsel of the Anti-Saloon
League of America, who was in this
city to-day.
First. he said, I'VE will ask the new
attorney general to revise the opinion,
Second, we will endeayor to get the
remaining nine states that have no en-.
forcement codes to do what the other
dry states have done and prohibit the

poses.
FINALLY, We viii ask Congress TO

AT Receat Meeting of Rail
way Executives in Ne"
Haven 1t Was the Sense
of the Meeting That Re-
ductions in Wages OF
Skilled Employees Were
Not Considered Objec-
tiOnable.

Chicago, March ll.-Steps to bring
about reductions in the wages OF
skilled employees probably will be tax
en- bv many railroads throughout the
country as soon as adjustments can
be made in the pay of unskilled work
ers. according to officials OF the Asso-
eiatio nof Railway Executives.
Such reductions if made, Will be
handled individually by the roads in
the same manner as cuts in pay for un-
skiIled workers with no attempt at
concerted or simultaneous action by
the railroads,
The association at a meeting in New
Haven, Conn, on March 4, adopted a
resolution that il was the sense OF the
meeting that reductions in the pay OF
skilled employees were not considered
Objectionable by the executives. The
matter was then referred to the in
diyidual roads.
Officials of the association to-day pre-
ldicted that announcements of read
Iiustment of the wage scale of skilled
men, similar to the one made a. few
ldavs ago by the Pennsylvania lines,
soon would be forthcoming.
From the labor side little comment
came on the announcements of pro-
posed reductions in unskilled employees
wages. 1t was said that the matter
would have to come before the railroad
labor board and that the unions chief
concern now was to see that the roads
acted in accordance with the transpor-
Itation act.
Belief that the proposal of the Penn
Isylvania railroad to confer individual
lly with the various crafts over new
wage scale might not be in accordance
with the spirit of the transportation
act was expressed by labor officers.
They said that one conference must be
called covering all crafts.
No word had been given out by the
labor board concerning the request of
The unions that a group of railway
executives be subpoenaed for cross
questioning Frank P. Walsh. attorney
: for the brotherhoods, and various labor
leaders were gathering here for the
board session Monday when a reply
To the reqeust for subpoenas is ex-
lpected.
The Chicago and Alton railroad will
take steps within short time to re-
lduce the pay of its employees. w. g.
Bierd president, announced to-day. The
reductions will be made to bring about
an ultimate reduction in freight and
passenger rates, which "now are more
than the public can bear" he said.
