VERMONT'S "GAINFUL"
WORKERS LEAD
THE AGRICULTURISTS

| Especial to the Caledonian- Record)
WASHINGTON. Sept. 19-Not-
! withstanding the fact that Vermont
is generally classed as an agricul-
tural rather than a manufacturing
state, a slightly higher percentage
| of Velmonters engaged in the So
called "gainful" occupation during
1920 were at work in manufacture
ing and mechanical industries than
were employed in agriculture, for
estry, and animal husbandry, the
percentages being respectively 1922
and 80. Reduced to numbers, it
appears from the latest census bull
letin that of the gainful workers
in Vermont in 1920, a total of A.
679 persons participated in manu-
featuring and allied industries, and
Al, 266 in farming and forestry.
According to the Fourteenth CEN
sus, gainful occupations claimed a
total of 1886 Vermonters ten
years of age and over, or 1913 per
cent. of the whole population of
the state (352,428), and 48.7 per
cent. of the states population ten
years and more Of age. This is
a slight falling off during the past
decade, since in 1910 the 144,089
gainful workers constituted 40.5
per cent. of the total population of
the state, and almost one-half of
the population ten years of age and
over.
A little over eighty per cent. of
the gainful workers in 1920 in Yer
mont were males, leaving for the
female representation 1914 per
cent. In this classification the fig
ures of the employed were: males,
III, 1902, females 26,914. The male
gainful workers made up TIP per
cent. of all males ten years of age
and over, as against 77.9 per cent.
in 1910, while the females of the
species were 1872 per cent. of all
the females in the state ten years
of age and more, as opposed to
202 per cent. in 1910.
The distribution of the gainful
employees, outside the two main di-
visions already given, was: Elk
traction of minerals, 1905, or IA
per cent; transportation, 9,2S1, or
6.7 per cent; trade, 10,968 or 7.9
per cent; public service, 1853, or
1.3 per cent; professional service,
1921, or SIS per cent; domestic
and personal service, 11,62G, or 8.4
per cent; clerical occupations, o.
301, or as per cent.

Has Diplomatic Passport.
Linden came from Paris on a
diplomatic passport and is reported

Information current here is that
the czarists, most OF whom now nave

combined forces with the Kerensky
supporters to take advantage OF the
famine in Russia to endeavor to
seize control.
At the Russian embassy today de-
NAL was made that Lindsn's mission
In this country has any political
significance.
II was officially learned, however.
that the Kerensky supporters, both
here and abroad. have great hope
that the starving hordes will revolt
against the Lenin regime after fool
supplies distributed through the
Hoover organization have relieved
their sufferings.
According to reports from other
sources, American money - needed
to reinstate Kerensky and the
planners hope the American Govern
ment may be persuaded to give aid.
Kerensky Is still the recognized
head of Russia, officially speaking
and his ambassador here still is ac-

dor"

that Russia's people are to be fed
whether It means the downfall OF the
bolshevists or their remaining In
power.

may strengthen the soviet govern
ment: on the other hand, 1t may cause
it's overthrow"

President Harding's own sugges-
limit their delegations to five or
six persons already has provided the
tongues Of Washington with a basis
Of speculation concerning the sys-
tenn to be followed in selecting Amer

It is considered settled in high
quarters here that President Hard

In the deliberations, and that Sec
retary of State Hughes will act as
chairman OF and principal spokesman

Several Plans Proposed.
A number of plans already have

found most favor embraces:
A representative of Congress. prob
ably Senator.
A representative OF the army.
A representative OF the navy.
A prominent Democrat.
A prominent Republican.
Perhaps a woman.
1t has been suggested that in view
of the fact that the experts and heads
Of the army and navy will be on the
ground here It will be unnecessary to
include their representatives in the
commission itself, or that the army
