Mostly Politics.

(Hindley in Rutland Herald)
1t is astonishing how the governor
ship matter-what there is of it
just simply sticks and hangs on what
Brigham is going to do.
John Cushing doesn't say much
how could he? He knows Brigham
is a good man. He has admitted it,
but if Ebert were to get a-going in
a real campaign right now, there is
no telling what might happen before
spring.
AS matter of fact, don't think
the situation is worrying Ebert as
much as it is some other people, but
it's a little worrisome around Middle
bury and Cornwall Pm any judge
and it is likely to be more worri-
some before it improves.
Ebert won't say he is a candidate
not yet-but on the other hand
neither will he say he isn't and let
some one run that really wants to
run and knows how to run.
The Brigham men allow that if Ell
bert and Abe both ran they would
fsplit the farmer vote" and the dis
astrous result would be that Frank
Howe would be nominated. I say,
disastrous" only in the sense of be-
ing disastrous to others, because
Frank is in the happy position of be-
ing practically immune from labor
problems in printing his newspaper,
in having a staff of the self-starting
variety and in having a postoffice in
his back ycrd where he can walk in
and hang up his hat, as you might
say, practically any time.
Of course, a mere postoftice means
nothing in politicians young life #
he has his aspirations fixed on high
er things, but at that-a $500 job In
your back yard that is practically
velvet isn't to be sneered at as
against miserable, unappreciated
sacrifice, personal, political and finan-
cial, because that's what the govern
orship means to a man who intends
to stay with it; and / believe Frank
would-if he got the job.
And then, Of course, there's always
the odd chance that you won't land
and that you have spent considerable
time and money for the good OF the
cause merely!
Ordinarily, you wouldn't say there
was an argument.
the early automobile registrations
by promising the early birds low
numbers, their old numbers, or what
ever they like, if they'll only register
between now and January LIST.
I don't know anything that pulls
harder-in the dead of winter and
Christmas right with us-than PUNK
ing up horse power tax on an old
bus that may or may not develop any
horse power, I mean.
So most of us let it run until-not
January or even March, b'gosh, but
right up until driving weather; then
we veil our heads off because we
can't get what we want by return
mail.
Human natures Gurus. and / don't
believe either Harry or Bill Teachout
will change it much.-H. l.. H.

Road Argument Again.
BENNINGTON Banner.j

The Bennington Banner comes out
in opposition to building 5OOO miles
OF hard surface roads and also for
Dondlng to build even 500 miles CT
such roads.
The Journal and most other advo-
Gates of hard surface trunk lines do
act expect tn1t the state will start
in on fixed program Of building all
the roads of permanent construction,
or that it will issue bonds for even
500 miles of hard surface roads at
one time. They do advocate begin
ming in the construction Of trunk
lines of cement or other near perma-
nent pattern.
That gravel surface will not
stand the traffic on most of our trunk
roads will soon be necessity on such
lines and it is full time that this
state appreciated the fact.
The Banner does advocate the
building of cement roads by cities,
villages and prosperous towns. This
means a continuation of the patch
work policy of the past which has
been out of date Tor many years. By
the shades of otod Bates, is it not
yet recognized that we need state
built ana safe maintained trunk
lines ?-Man4tlester Journal.
1t is a good thing to have this
question argued and it is always well
to have disagreement for it is by pre-
senting of various and varying Opin-
ions that the citizens and taxpayers
become educated to a better under
standing. There is no other way so
effe ctive in getting at the facts.
The question, as The Banner sees
it, is not what we want but what we
can buy and pay for. The Journal
pretty well what Bennington county
would like in the way of roads but
such a system of roads would cost
from twenty to thirty times the
grand list of the county. The inter-
est alone on such debt would cost
a tax of a dollar on a dollar of the
grand list year after year without
paying one penny of the principal
The Banner does not believe in put
ting any such burden on the people
of Bennington county, and it does not
believe that The Journal would, after
thinking it over. If the state should
do it, the burden would be the same.
We merely instanced the county as
dealing in smaller figures.
| In the savings banks and the saw
lngS departments OF the natlOnal
banks of Vermont there is
something over one hundred millions

Armament Conference

The worlds conference for the linn
itation of armament held its first
session in Washington Saturday, and
will resume it's sessions Tueday.
Secretary Hughes offered the Amer
lean proposal for limitation of naval
armament in brief as follows:
"1-That all capital ships building
program, either actual or projected,
should be abandoned.
"2-That further reduction should
be made through the scrapping of GER
tain Of the older ships.
"3-That in general, regard should
be had to the existing naval strength
of the powers concerned.
"4-That the capital ship tonnage
should be used as the measurements
of strength for navies and a proper
tionate allowance of auxiliary COM
blatant craft prescribed"
For the United States the program
would scrap all capital ships under
construction, Is In number and Is of
the older battleships. Great Britain
would stop construction on her four
new ships of the Hood type and scrap
all her second and first line battle
ships up to the King George V class.
Japan would abandon plans for two
DaLL eSnlpS and TOUR battle cruisers
not yet laid down and in addition
would scrap three capital ships and
four battle cruisers in process Of con-
struction and all ten of the pre-dred-
thoughts and battleships of the second
line.
AS Replacement program the Amer
lcan government proposed that no more
ships be laid down for the next
ten years and that a maximum re-
placement tonnage figure be fixed pro-
vldlng eventually for 100000 tons for
the United States; 100000 tons for
Great Britain and 100000 tons for ia
pan.
AZ proviso also would be included
permitting replacement of capital
ships when they were 20 years old
and prohibiting construction of any
ship built in replacement with a ton
mage Of more than $4,000 tons.

Attention is called to letter from
F. M. Kimball of California, publish
ed in this issue. Mr.. Kimball was a
former resident of Barton and always
writes interesting letters which are
to the point. In this letter Mr.. KIM
ball speaks of the crime wave, es-
pecially in California, but which is
more or less nation wide. Mr.. Kim
ball says much of this crime is by
youth and onines that the reason for
it is sad commentary on present
day bringing up" ''No parental
moral training, no habits of industry.
no God but instead bad company, dis
solute companions, movies, joy rides,
then the call for money without work,
and crime follows" Here we believe
Mr.. Kimball has hit the nail on the
head.

People, who were much exercised
because not all business places were
closed on Armistice day and express
ed great patriotic feeling in their in
dignant words, but who themselves
are so unpatriotic and narrow as to
refuse the Red Cross 81 per year for
the furtherance of the great human
itarian work of that organization,
will find no consolation in these
words. This is the time for the an
nual Red Cross roll call and the work
this organization is doing, ooh at
home and abroad, is such that he who
refuses his support must be ignorant
or bigoted.

Buy at Home and Build up Vermont.
burlington Free Press)

How to secure a Greater Vermont
is one Of the problems we are all dis
cussing at this time with renewed in
terest. If we all bought what we
need out of the state, manifestly all
of our industries would languish and
our merchants would go out of bust
ness. Therefore, we should all buy
at home instead of sending to Bos-
ton or New York stores for the same.
The question is, why should we not
all study how to buy more of our
necessities at home, and thus keep
the money represented in circulation
in Vermont? lie we all study how to
increase our purchases in Vermont
instead of outside of the state we
shall help to ensure a Greater Yer
mont.
