boro amateurs who will present the mus
ical comedy of that name in the Audi

The weather was not first class, but the
parade was a pleasing sight and gave an
inkling of what may be. expected at the
two benefit performances. About 7.30
o'clock the parade formed in front of the
town hall building proceeded north to
the Wells fountain, returned TO Elliot
street and after going out that street
some distance marched : So to the foot
of Main street hill and back to the Audi
torium, where the final rehearsal was
held
At the head of the line were Col f.
w. Gibson and Maj. L. u. Taylor on
horseback. and back of them were the
interlocutor. ID. f. Shea, and the end
men. The Brattleboro Military band
followed. and next came more members of
the Happy Valley company, the men on
foot and the women in automobiles. The
, Brattleboro drum corps. wearing red un-
iformS. headed the second division, which
was made up of members of Company |
in uniform and carrying rifles.
The show committee fully appreciates
the donation of the use of automobiles
for the parade&
There has been large sale of tickets

REVENUE BILL BACK
BEFORE SENATE
Many Points I'm ControveFsy-ENpect
Sharp Fight Over SmOOts Manu-
facturerS' Sale Tax

WASHINGTON, Oct. IL. The tax
bill was back today on the senate calen-
dar with its sponsors ready to propose
elimination of some and radical revision
of others of its features which have been
the objectives of bitter opposition from
both sides of the chamber.
Chief points now in controversy so far
as the Republicans are concerned are the
increased income, surtax and estate tax
rates, detention of the corporation cap
ital stock tax and restriction of the S.
600 exemption TO corporations to those
having incomes of $4,000 or less.
Hhe SmoOt manufacturers sales tax
plan also promises to be the center of a
sharp fight Supporters of the proposal
claim that after it has been explained by
Senator Smoot it will gain ground.
There are nearly $50 amendments to the
pending bill printed and ready to be Of

DEPUTY MARSHAL
INSPECTS FIRES
Says Some Store Proprietors Will Be
Summoned to Court if They Do Not
Improve Conditions.

a. c. Preble of Barre, deputy state
fire marshal, came here yesterday on q
tour of inspection and invesl lgation,
the recent fires in the Bushnell store
building, the so-called Russell building
occupied by the Brattleboro Custom
cupied by Mrs. Mary Il. Levy as wom-
ems apparel shop, being the primary
cause of his visit at this time.
Mr.. Preble says that unless conditions
in the rear of some of the stores IN
Crosby block and other places are i'm
proved before his next visit he will sum
mon the proprietors into court as he
already has given them two previous
notices.
He inspected the so-called Waterman
house on Elliot street. which is under
goinp alterations and additions, and
gave notice to the owner, Charles Miner,
that certain changes would have to be
made. Notice also was given that the
fire escapes in the rear of the Princess
apartments must be kept cleared. 1t
has been the practice, he says, to string
other bedding to air in such places and
positions as to render the fire escapes
of no use in case of fire.
Mr. Preble said that the foundation
under the southeast corner of the Hertz
berg building which was occupied by
Mrs Levy. was in a dangerous condi-
tion, but last night he had not decided
whether ne would condemn the building
1t is the purpose of the deputy fire
marshal to improve conditions in Brat
/ tleboro, and if necessary. legal steps
| viii be taken to enforce the orders OF
| the fire marshal.
| Mr. Preble plans to be in town a few
! DAYS longer checking up on previous or
| ders and making further Inspections.

The Vernon Church Controversy.
of The Reformer :

TuiloF Oh Inc heIofIner.
Your somewhat biased report of the
Vernon church meeting might lead some
minds to the conclusion that. while DIR.
\. T. Woods adherents held the fort,
they did so arbitrarily, which is not the
fact Preaching in the Vernon church
for the past quarter of a century. more
or less. has been based upon the Univer-
salist faith. and the regular attendants
upon these services have embraced and
subscribed to that faith. 1t will be
plainly recalled hereabo that Mr.. Lee,
of one of the notable Vernon families,
and a stanch Universalist. solicited funds
among the membership of the Brattleboro
church in aid of the erection of the pres
ent structure. and that the trust fund of
some $4,000 was given by a family de-
voted to Universalism and this fund
could not in Justice, equity, or law, be
diverted from the cause which it so gem
erouSly endowed DIR. Wood held none
but legitimate proxies from resident and
nonresident devotees of a faith actively
supported and proclaimed for so many
years in the Vernon church, and upon
the law of social gravitation a dissenting
active minority should never attempt to
dominate an active majority.

WOULD REDUCE

The Conference Committee
Thinks 1t Would Relieve
Unemployment
RESOLUTION MUST
GO TO FULL BODY
Recommends Rates Be More In AccOrG
With Relative Value of COmmOditie!
Financial Stability of Roads Mus
Not BE Endangered.

WASHINGTON, Oct. IL Readjust-
ment and reduction of railroad freight
rates constituted one of number of
recommendations formulated for pre-
sentation today to the national unem-
ployment conference for bringing about
a permanent betterment of the nation s
commerce and industry with consequent
relief of unemployment. The recon-
mendation with respect to rates as in
the case of other recommendations was
set forth in resolution adopted by the
conference committee for approval by
the full conference.
The recommendation proposes read
justment of railroad rates more nearly
in accord with the relative value of the
commodities and reduction in charges on
shipments of primary commodities.
This should b. done, however, the reso-
luton states, with proper attention TO
maintenance of financial stability of
the carriers.
