BANKERS SALARIES.

The Federal Reserve bank of New
York seems to make out a good case in
its reply to a resolution of the United
States senate, asking about the high sal
aries it has been accused of paying. The
report shows that the average annual sal
airy paid to its employees, including bonus,
has been 81, 440, while the average salary
paid by 10 of the largest New York banks
is 5000 to 5000 higher than that. And
these are evidently peak averages. AT the
end of 1918, the bank in question was
paying an average of S1,095 a year.
The matter is Of interest mainly be,
cause of the light it throws on bank sal
aries in general. The above salary aver,
age includes the really big salaries paid
to the executives at the head of the in
stitutions. The pay of the ordinary EN-
ploye is therefore considerably less thar
the figures indicate.
1t is probably true, and has been fol
many years. that the bulk of bank EN-
plOyes earn less than skilled mechanics
and work at least as hard for it. Such q
price do white collar men" pay to be
elegant and envied.

LIVED YEARS ON
BREAD AND MILK
Malady of Alabama Woman
Was Continually Sap
ping Her Strength

Mrs. H. P. Barrett, of Republic, sub
urb of Birmingham, Ala, gives the facts
of her remarkable. experience with Tan
lac as follows: "
During the past II years have spent
more than 81 600 trying to get rid of a
complaint that was gradually sapping my
strength, but until l got hold of Tanlac
nothing helped me- For the past four
years / have lived almost entirely on
milk and bread, and finally even, that
went against me.
Before | had finished the first bottle
of Tanlac I got so I could eat anything
and l certainly bless the day l first got

years to my life. The people in my
neighborhoOd were so surprised at the
change in me that fourteen of them by
actual count are now taking Tanlac. -

Hard Roads Program,
(Rutland Herald.l

The hard-roads people are actually
getting down to brass tacks - so far
as plans are concerned. They propose
to increase the amount paid for autOmO-
bile fees to double the present figures,
build ten miles of cement road each year
and pay for it direct with money re-
ceived from car owners.
Then there is the alternative plan-to
bond the state for 100000 to Sl,0O0O00 q
year for five years-and build the roads
Immediately.
This is the progam actually discussed
by a volunteer commission, in which
Mr. Mentzer of Williston and the direc-
tors of the Vermont Automobile club are
active members. and they propose to send
out a referendum to the automobile
owners to see if they viii "stand for
either of these plans
Just as a suggestion, The Herald does
not believe (l) that any Vermont legis
lature will ever vote a state bond issue /;
% that if the roads are good plan, all
people should be equally taxed therefor
not Just the owners of cars
But the Mentzer-Greene committee
may. clear the way toward a better I'M
derstapding of our highway problems.
1t will be a good bit of better roads
agitation.

William Boyce Thompson. New York
financier. who is one of the advisory COM
mittee chosen to act with the American
delegates in the Washington arms confer
ence, is a man whose large fortune was
made in Montana, where he was born.
His father was a pioneer settler of that
state and one of the first men to locate
gold mines, which made him a multimil-
honaire. The son was sent East. cdu-
Gated Mt Columbia university, and then
was called back to Butte to aid in manag-
ing the family's interests in mines, fac
tories and banks. In 1890 Mr.. Thompson
settled in New York aud has resided there
most of the time since. He headed the
American Red Cross mission to Russia in
1917. His rank as banker may be in

The head of a great civic charitable
organization forecasts the most critical
year in its history as imminent During
1921 the work of his organization was 30
per cent heavier than in 1920. He Jocks
for the coming winter to raise the percent
age still more.
Most communities face a similar crisis.
Unemployment has been long continued
and living costs have come down so
slowly that inroads even upon the savings
of the thrifty have reached the danger
mark.
The situation calls for generosity on
the part of all those who contribute to
charitable relief and careful coordination
of all organizations which dispense it,
in order, that there may be no wasteful
duplication of effort
The natural tendency will be for people
to feel that they cannot give at all or
that they must reduce the pledges of for
mer years. Never was there more need
for reviving the old slogan, give until
it hurts" A little of the economy. prac-
ticality and unselfshness which fioated
this nation through its war giving will
mean that all the needy can be spared for
adequately until business is re-estab-
lished.

The High School Football Championship.
(Barre Times.

. Unless some rather prompt action is
taken by properly constituted authorities,
the Vermont high school football cham
pionship for 1921 promises to deterioate
into a useless and somewhat ridiculous
paper discussion of the respective mer-
its of the leading contenders. The three
teams. which seem to stand out as the
legitimate aspirants for the title by rea-
son of games won. are Rutland high
school, st. Adams high school and Lyn-
don Institute. Steps ought to be taken
at once to bring these three teams into
contact with each other; and the most
practical way seems to be for st. Al
bans and Lyndon to get together and
decide which one will play the undoubted
leader of the southern part of the state.
Rutland high school. The Vermont
School Masters club may not have any
definite authority over arranging foot
ball schedules but we presume no one
would object if the club should take It
upon itself to settle a discussion, which
promises to get nowhere and lead into
angry claims.

backed by big business, the former only
by public appreciatioB of the Hbrary's

the other winner by 1000 votes. Some
times citizens with vision for the future
become discouraged and feel that all their
labor in behalf of education, health and
