LACK OF ROOMS
MAY DELAY WORK
OF LEGISLATURE
Fifty-eight Committees to
Meet with Only 6 Rooms
Available
Especial to Caledonian-Record)

MONTPELIER, VT, Jan. 12-The
lack of adequate room for the meet
ings of the various house and senate
F., committees was the outstanding fea-
ture of today's legislative session.
A volley of announcements of COM
mittee meetings in both houses dis
closed the fact that the old time
method of meeting in reception
rooms, cloak rooms, department Off
! ces, etc, was on again.
: The library annex, which was re-
! leased for committee rooms when the
supreme court building was con-
| Structed, is now occupied by state de-
partments and the failure of those
departments TO move down town thus
giving up their Offices for use as
committee rooms dulin~ the present
session impelled the chairmen of the
various house and senate committees
to appoint a sub committee to confer
with the board of control with u view
to remedying those conditions.
"For the present we can get along" :,
said Chairman Dyer today. But un-
less we can have more room very
soon we are going to be held back.
After the committees are organized
and get down to business they will
need more room and they ought not
to be delayed for lack of room 10

The sub committee appointed is

LEGION DEFEATED
in FAST GAME
AT WHITE RIVER
Junction Five" Wins BY
81 to 20 Score With Refer
ee In Favorable Mood

! In the fastest game in which they
have figured on an out-of-town floor,
St. Johnsbury's crack American
Legion basketball team, went down
to defeat before the White River
, Junction quintet on the latters court
Tuesday evening The count was 81
to 20, which in itself bears evidence
of the closeness of the battle. The
local athletes have no alibi to offer
for their failure to bring home the
bacon, but the fact that Referee
Gordon called total of % fouls on
the eX-Service men, while he punish
ed the Junction boys but five times
for misdemeanors, had a great deal to
do with the outcome of the struggle.
Had the fouls been more evenly di-
vided the writer feels that the result
would have been far different thaa
i stands now on the records.
4 This is the first time that these
two outfits have met in battle during
the present season, but the fine show
ing made by the White River team in
last nights "fuss" has impressed
Manager Ray Leonard TO the extent
that he is now cndeavoring to secure
a game with them to be played at
the Armory. A tentative date has
already been set for Thursday cv-
ening, Jan. 20, and if nothing further
is heard from the leader of the team
down state, the contest will be
staged on that date. White River
Junction has a speedy and clever
five, one that will prove an i'm
mensc drawing card with local fans
and Manager Leonard expects re-
cord attendance when this team ap-
pears.
As the score indicates the game
was nip and tuck affair from start
to finish and the crowd, which filled
the hall, was kept in continual sus-
pensc. 1t was corking good game
to watch and was replete with flashes
of brilliant playing and stellar shoot
ing. A a general rule the offenSe and
defense proved equally strong and
headway by both sides was gained
only by the most strenuous work on
the part of each and every player.
When it came to shooting, the River
boys had a slight edge on the st
Johnsbury lads, at least for that one
night, but the passing of legionerS far
cXcelled that of their opponents.
The score at the end of the first !
period was IA to 10 in favor Of
White River Junction, at the com
plction of the second stanza, the St.
J. was in the lead by five points,
the final session, the June
ton athletes crept up to and passed !

former American representative on
the supreme war council at Paris.
The nations that would come to such
conference and refuse TO agree to
any proposition looking to disalma-
ment or at least a reduction of its
military establishment, "would be
written down as the next Germany

plans accordingly" Gen. Bliss said,

GREAT NATIONS FAVOR DISARMAMENT
CANCEL BANQUET IN
HONOR OF HEROES

1ORON ~, Ont, Jan. 12-The
Aero Club of Canada today announc-
ed it had cancelled banquet to the
three American naval balloonists in
view of the fight at Mattise yester-
day, when Lieut. Farrell knocked
Lieut.. Hinton down because of let
ter he had written home.
MATTICE, Ont, Jan. 12-Lieuts.
Farrell, Kloor and Hinton were much
refreshed today after their first
nights sleep of real comfort since
setting out from the frozen Hudson
Bay region, where they landed on
December IA, after q hazardous bal
loon flight from Rockaway, L. /.
Preparations were under way today
for their departure late this after
noon for Toronto.
The dispute that arose between
Lieuts. Farrell and Hinton shortly
after their arrival here Yesterday APP
parently had been forgotten. The
quarrel eliminated in a blow by Far
rell which sent his fellow airman
sprawling over table in the home
of II. P. Williamson. But the aero
nauts arose early, had breakfast in
their private car and all regretted the
incident, which mawed their histori-
cal adventure
The alteration arose over a letter,
written by Hinton, to his wife from
Moose Factory. In the letter, pub
lished by New York newspaper,
Hinton wrote that Farrell, exhausted
by the vigorous wanderings, pleaded
with his two companions to kill him
and eat his body to enable them to
get back to civilization. Farrell
charged his companion with double
crossing him, saying all had agreed,
that their letters should not be pub
lished. Hintons refusal to retract
was the immediate cause for Farrell'S
blow Newspaper correspondents
interferred and separated them.
