go to trial on charge Of conspiracy
to defraud the government in connec-

was an attorney in the department OF
justice, was arrested. This was N)l
lowed by the arrest of Moses, Wash
ington lawyer, and Mayer, who was in

they have been handcuffed, thrown
into jails and mistreated.
Consul General Horton declares this
action by the Greek authorities is in
Aagrant conflict with agreements be-

granting amnesty to persons natur-
allied as Americans prior to Febru

Current Comment Of Vermont Papers
on Some Live Topics
Back to Vermont Farms

One of the slogans in the gubcrna'
torial campaign in Vermont was the
uplift Of the rural community. The
Vermont rural school was only ono
of the many factors made conspicu-
Gus in that connection. Various ways
were suggested in which the farmer
might be aided in solving some of the
pressing problems confronting him at
this particular time. We want to at
tract people from other sections and
particularly former Vcrmonters to
our farms as we'll as TO make it worth
while for our Vermont boys and Yer
mont girls to cling to the farm and
help uphuild this Green Mountain
region. One of the ways in which
Gov. Hardness urged the aiding of
the farmer in addition to better roads
and better schools was the institut-
ing of an organized fort for better
marketing facilities. We need more
publicity for our attractions as an
agricultural state, and this means
first of all that we must appreciate
these attractions ourselves. The
Middlebury Register makes an OK
ccllcnt point when it says:
"Thc revenue from farming in Yer
mont, as published in a report from
the state publicity director, ought to
be good cause for meditation by the
boys who have forsakcn the country

advertisement. This estimate of 80

entire gold output OF the United
States. The immigration of Canadi-
an agriculturists into Vermont, in
stead of seeking the widely heralded
opportunities for easy wealth in their
own Northwest, is one instance Of
appreciation of the possibilities Of
material prospcritv right here at
