1t will appear, however. Some repre-
sentative OF the Antl-Naloon league WIN
introduce the measure and viii carry on
the fight. The Vermont Issue the leagues
\ elmont publication, contains such prom
lse IN its current issue. The issue also eX-
presses confidence that the "dTys' have
majority in both the house and senate
and will he able to pass the leagues meas

The league is most anxious to have the
state OF ermout take a hand in trying to

the leaks along the international boundary
line. The Issue predicts that next sum

liquors over the states frontier and fol
lows this prediction up by saying. the
state of Vermont must take a hand i'm
heIhng to solve the border problem"
That the lawmakers of Vermont want
to enforce prohibition is a matter of fact.
Vermont has a stringent prohibition law on
her statute books flow 1t might, of course

the Nolstead act But what Is troubling
more than one legislator is whether it

which would create a force of liquor

ing for violations.
There is already in Vermont a federal
prohibition enforcing officer There are
now federal agents appointed under the
Nolstead act and of course Uncle Sam has
his customs officers on the frontier. Does
Vermont want to duplicate the prohibi-
ton enforcing officer and the Nolstead
agents under state jurisdiction and at
state expense. or will she be content with
her present law and give aid by her pres
ent law? The point is. there Is no differ
euce of opinion on the point that Vermont
should be dry: the difference will develop
on how the dryness Is to be accomplished.

WASHINGTON. Jan. PA pub
lie and solemn engagement among the
great powers not TO violate or to per-
nit the violations of the territorial integ-
rity of Russia is regarded by President
Wilson as the sine qua non of an at
tempt ut the pacihcation of Armenia and
the other states bordering on the once
great empire.
Tie presidents views are set forth in
a note transmitted to Paul Hymans,
president of the league of nations assem-
bly,. by Acting Secretary Davis under
date of January Is. and made public
Saturday night at the state department.
The "diStreSSful situation of Ar
mcnia, which has been invaded by both
the Turkish Nationalists and the SOvietS.
is only one detail of the vast Russian
problem. the president says, and he
most earnestly urge4" his conviction
that it is only by Il general and COM
prchenSivc treatment of the whole prob
lem. only by full and generous cooper
alton of the principal powers. that a
honefUl approach to the pacitication and
independence of Armenia can be found.
The president says he has never be
Iicvcd that the problems raised by the
B0lshevik coup d'etat could be solved
by military actions from the outside and
he expressed the hope that the recent
traeical events on the Polish front and
in the Crimea have convinced all the
word that armed invasion is not the way
to bring peace to the people Of Russia.
The president then suggests public
and solemn declaration among the pow
ers to refrain from extending. such aid,
declaring that i'm this way responsibility
for any new war which might break out
oH the Russian border would then be
"clearlv placed"

Editor of The Reformer -
In your issue of Jan. - you refer
to weather of 30 years ago and to the
fact of man finding a snake near West
BratUleboro. On Saturday. the same
date. 1921. the writer while looking over
the pipe line of the Western Aqueduct
company came across snake about two
feet long on the bank south of High
Lawn road, the ground there not being
frozen. 1t would therefore appear that

ours of 1920-21.
