Possible Effects of

The Washington herald., 1921-10-02
Agreements of France

Germany anticipates that in the
discussions in Washington over the
possibility of disarmament, France
will produce all the arguments of
her militarists concerning the fear
of Germany. Then 1t would be quite
natural that the negotiating DOW
ers should ask Germany what guar
antics she intends TO give in order
to invalidate these French. argu-
ments
Nothing would be more desirable
to the majority of the German peo-
pie than such a questioning.
Right now. il can be taken as a
fact that Germany will be ready to
answer this question with frank
ness. to give and to keep faithfully
all demanded promises compatible
with its national honor
II the international conference in
Washington follows this course, the
much-cherished hopes of Germany
for this great political action will
prove grounded. For, IL the wea-
pOns wherewith the French militar-
ism tyrannizes the government can
be wrested away by international
establishment of German guaran-
ties. then. it is hoped here every
government in France will be in
position to conduct a policy of pure
usefulness.

Barre Has Chance to Be "Banner
Town"

Every town in Vermont that sells
five or more Christmas seals per cap
tia will receive banner from the
Vermont Tuberculosis association and
be known as a "banner town.. Last
year the following towns sold i've or
more seals per capita and would have
received banners under the arrange
sment this year:
r Bennington, yergennes, Brattleboro,
Rupert. Poultney, Shoreham, Athens,
Hancock, Clarendon, Pittsford.
The sale of the seals was carried
out in these towns largely by the
school children in the same manner
as in other places, but by little bet
ter organization and leadership they
were able to take the lead.
This year larger number OF towns
than ever before have entered the list
to secure a banner and prospects are
that there win be a. goodly number Of
banners given away in this manner.
In Barre last year there were sold
IS seals per capita.
