Clarence NJ. Brooks Of Keene, N. II.
who recently resigned as division en-
gineer Of the New Hampshire high
way department, has accepted an Of
fer to become deputy commissioner OF
highways Of the State of Vermont,
the appointment having been made
within the past few days by the new
state highway board of that state
He will assume his new duties July l..
During the early part Of the year
Mr.. Brooks was nominated by Cover
nor Hartness of Vermont to be high
way commissioner, but the legislature
changed the law in regard TO the
highway department, making it nee
essary that the commissioner should
be a Vermont man. Later Thurman
W. Dix Of Burlington, was appointed
and Mr.. Brooks will be his deputy.
The highway department is being
reorganized and Mr.. Brooks long and
varied experience with the New
Hampshire department is expected to
prove valuable in this work. His
headquarters will be in Montpelier and
while his work will include all which
would naturally fall to q general
deputy. he will be directly in charge
Of all the maintenance work of the
state.
Mr.. Brooks had his first experience
with highway engineering and con-
struction in New York state, where he
was employed with the state highway
department before New Hampshire
began TO improve her roads. In 1906,
after the passage Of the state aid road
act and the beginning Of improved
construction, he was appointed engin-
eer for Cheshire County, under State
Engineer Arthur W. Dean for some
years past chief engineer Of the
Massachusetts, highway department
He was county engineer from 1906 70
1910 and when State Engineer Harry
Hin divided the state into divisions
became the engineer q division &

THE EQUINOX COMPANY
CHANGES HANDS
yermont's Largest Hotel and One Of
Ne- England's Most Famous Sum
mer Resort Properties Changes
Ownership.

Ownership.
The controlling interest in the
Equinox House and other property OF
the Equinox Company, but not that OF
the Equinox Spring property. has been
sold by Mrs. George orvis to Mrs. V.
II. p. Brown Of New York
The announcement Of this change
came as a surprise and somewhat Of a
shock TO Manchester people who have
for so long a time associated this
famous hotel with the 0rvis family
that any change seemed almost in
credible.
The Equinox House has been In the
control Of the family Of Franklin H.
orvis, the original proprietor, for the
past sixty-nine years, and its history
is one of continued and ever-inereas-
ing success and prosperity. Practical
ly all the fortunes of the family have
been put into this property with q
view to the permanent development OF
complete summer resort plant.
The development and success Of the
hotel have been most notable since the
ownership Of MIR. George Orvis who
purchased the entire property in 1903
and made extensive improvements and
additions. Since Of the death Of Mr..
Orvis in 1917, Mrs. 0rvis has contin-
ued the progressive policy Of her late
husband with equal success.
Mrs. Brown is an experienced hotel
womsn, having been interested in the
m IN. cement of Granli6en Hotel at
Lake Sunapee, N. H., The Aspinwali
at Lenox, Mass, and Rock Ledge
Hotel in Florida
Mr.. A. +. Martin will continue as
manager of Equinox House and the
persc mel of the employees will re-
main the same. The people Of Man
chester and the public generally may
rest assured that the hotel will be kept
up to its usual high standard and the
general policies of the management
will remain the same.
Mrs. George orvis will continue as
president of Equinox Company and il
will continue to have the benefit OF
her experience and counsel.
Mrs. Orvis retains her private resi-
dence, Tranquility Cottage, and the
George Smith house and will continue
/ 70 live in Manchester.

HOUSE PASSES REso-
LUTON TO END WAR

Failure of Senate TO Accept tetion Of
Lover Branch VIII Send Whole
Question Of Peace Legislation Into
Conference.
Washington. June i3-By a vote Of
exactly 5 TO / the House tonight
passed the Porter resolution 70 term
mate the state Of war between the
United States and the Central Pow
ers.
As a substitute for the Knox reso-
luton, already passed by the Senate,
repeating the declaration Of war, u
was put through, 305 TO 81, as a re-
publican measure with the loss Of only
one republican vote-Kelley of Michi-
gan. Forty-nine democrats joined In
the landslide.
Turn Down Substitute
First throwing out, on point OF
order, a motion by Representative
Flood, Virginia, TO send the resolution
back to the committee with instruc-
tions to report a substitute requesting
the president to negotiate with the en-
emy countries for a treaty OF peace,
the House voted down, 254 to 1l2, an
other re-eommitting proposal relating
to disarmaments.
There was no debate on the latter
motion which provided for an amend
ment to the pending measure reserv-
ing the right under the treaty Of Yer
sailles ito enter into an agreement
with Germany and her allies and the
powers associated with the United
States in the war for joint disarma-
ment."
The effort of the democratic leader
ship to hold the party in line against
the resolution failed. Chairman Por-
ter of the foreign affairs commission,
presented Representative Bourke
Cochran, democrat, New York, to
make the closing argument for pas
sage Of the resolution. There had
been talk during the day that Mr..
Cochran would be found in ,lne with
his party, but putting him forward to
end the debate, upset calculation. He
did not actually vote, as he was paired
The principal attack on the resolu-
ton was based by Democrats on the
ground that it did not properly pro-
tect American rights and that the
United States, in attempting to nego-
tate a treaty with Germany and her
ally would sit down with feet and
hands tied without being able to de-
mand the rights won by war. Repub-
licans held, however, that all rights
were safeguarded.
Failure Of the Senate to accept the
House substitute will send the whole
question of peace TO conference. Most
Of the Republican speakers declared
Congress ought not to repeal the war
declaration itself, holding it would be
regarded as a reputation OF the war,
but Democrats reminded them that
Republican House twice had passed
peace resolution with that provision.

Ira Allen was the founder OF the
University of Vermont and more than
any other one man, the founder Of the
State Of Vermont. Entering Vermont
when only 81 years old as a surveyor
he speedily became prominent in pub
lie affairs. and was active among the
Green Mountain Boys. He was one OF
the active forces in the conventions
which declared the independence OF
the State. and framed its constitution.
He devised the system Of eonfiseat-
ing the estates of Tories, by means OIL
which the State was largely financed
during the Revolutionary period. he
conducted the difficult and delicate
negotiations with Canada, whereby
the British were deceived, and an
army kept idle during the latter part
of the War for independence.
Ira Allen was one of the most active
of the Vermont leaders in securing the
admission Of this State to the Union.
He was the pioneer manufacturer IN
this part Of Vermont, establishing
mills and forges at Winoosh Fails
Before the close Of the eighteenth cen
tury. he saw the possibility 6f deep
waterway connecting Lake Champiaih
with The St. Lawrence River, and en-
deavored to interest the British gov
ernment IN a canal project.
