LEvIATKAN To LEAD
ALL OCEAN LINERS
Contract of Newport News Com
pany Calls for Complete Radio
Telephone System.

Washington. a special meeting
the Shipping Board awarded to the
Newport News Sbipbuilding and Dry
Dock Company the contract for recon
ditioning the former German liner Le-
viathan.
"When the Leviathan is ready for
service early in May, 1923, she will
be the best and most modern ship
afloat," said William Francis Gibbs,
who, with his brother, Frederick III.
Gibbs, has been chosen to supervise
the work. Even the new Majestic,
which will be put into service next
spring by the British, will not be quite
in the class of the Leviathan."
One point which Mr. Gibbs made
was that it will be possible for first
class passengers to telephone ashore.
Every first cabin will have an instru-
ment, while the central system will
connect with the radio apparatus. The
Leviathan will be the first vessel to
put the radio telephone to practical
use, Mr.. Gibbs said.
Reconditioning will include new
system of plumbing, like all the equip
ment, American made. Mr.. Gibbs was
formerly chief engineer for construc-
ton Of the International Mercantile
MaIine Company, but severed his con-
nection to take over the Leviathan
work. The Gibbs brothers will receive
a fee of $1S2,000.
The contracts signed by Homer L.
Ferguson, president of the Newport
News Company, actually cover ex-
penditures of $6,110,000.
Gimbel Brothers of New York were
awarded the contract for the equip
ment Of the stewards department and
for library.
A month will be required to repair
the machinery and fit the Leviathan
for the voyage to Newport News.

TO END BRITISH
RULE IN EGYPT
King George Approves Plans for
Setting Up a Native Cabi-
,, net in Cairo.
TO TERMINATE MARTIAL LAW
Protectorate to Be Abolished and In
dependence Granted Under Guar
antics - Sarvat Pasha to
Form Government.

London.-Field Marshal Lord. Allen
by, hero of the Palestine campaign, has
convinced the British cabinet that the
British protectorate over Egypt must
be abolished as the first step toward
setting up an Egyptian cabinet at Cairo,
1t was learned authoritatively.S Lord
Allenby was received by King George
to whom he set forth the principal
details Of his plan for revision Of
Egyptian affairs.
The New York Tribune correspond
ent learns officially that the statement
that Lord Allenby has been empow-
cred by the British government to ter
inmate the protectorate and recognize
Egyptian independence under certain
guarantees is substantially correct"
This signalizes a virtual return to
the policy suggested more than year
ago by Lord Miner and the abandon
ment of the belief that the British
should concede nothing until the Egyp-
tians set up functioning government.
1t is understood in well-informed
Pasha, former Egyptian minister of JUS
tice, will be called upon to form d
cabinet at Cairo. He is more accept
able to the British than ABLY Pasha,
former Egyptian premier, who headed
the Nationalist delegation to London
last November
1 Lord Allenby also has been empow-
cred, it is understood, to terminate the
state of martial law in Egypt and to
call meeting Of representatives OF
the Egyptian Nationalist and the Brit
ish government to consider the future |
disposition of British troop garrisons
and to define the guarantees which |
London wants for the military protec- |
ton of the Suez Canal. Other guaran- |
ties which Great Britain wants and
which will be discussed at this meet
ing are the maintenance of the Brit
ish right to protect foreigners in Egypt /
and the prevention of interference in /.
Egyptian affairs by any power other |
than Great Britain.
ord Allenby is returning to Cairo |
and is expected to take immediate |
stel,s toward the formation of an Egyp-
tian government, including a ministry |
of foreign affairs and the converting of
Il constituent assembly. Until this has
been done, British troops will remain
in Egypt, although it is possible that
they will be redistributed within the
next few weeks.

Editor and Business Manager March LIST.
1t is with feeling of regret that, after so many
years connection, part with the News and Citizen.
During all these years. the paper has received
undivided attention. and the fact that for forty
years it has been under management is evidence in
small degree that have met with general approba-
ton by the people of Lamoille County
Coming to Lamoille County in 1878 with w. A.
Armstrong of New York, succeeded O. S. Basford in
the management of the Lamoie News This partner
ship continued one year-Mr Armstrong retiring The
next two years managed the paper alone In 1881,
in connection with the Hon. H. c. Fisk purchased the
Vermont Citizen of A. A. Earle, uniting the two papers
under the name of the News and Citizen" The part
nership of Fisk and Lewis continued some five years.
Since then the paper has been under our exclusive
management
We have always advocated everything that was for
the good of Lamoille County The interests of every
town always had our best efforts and in all of them we
found loyal and staunch friends While this paper has
always been devoted to the principles of the Republican
Party it has always treated those of different political
faith fairly and count with pride the many friends
the paper has among all people, irrespective of political
affiliations.
We shall always retain warm affection for this
paper and its many friends and hope for continued pros
perty of the News and Citizen and trust that it will
continue to be prominent factor in promoting every
thing that will result for the best interests of our
county. So, after all these years. we come to "the
parting of the ways and dropping from the head of this
paper take place with the rank and file of it's readers
and say eau Revoir."

the discovery of this vein a few

ternoon and returned yesterday af-
ternoon. The purpose of his brief Wis
it was to confer with the managers of
the larger mines of the district with
the view to securing their cooperation
in preparing data regarding prevailing
mining methods in the respective
mines. This is in furtherance of
plan that has been worked out by the
American Institute of Mining and Met
allurgical Engineers. which has ap-
pointed a commission to gather and
compile this Information from all the
metal mines of the country and which
will he issued as bulletin by the in
stitute. Dean Thomson has been ap-
pointed to secure this data from the
mines of Idaho Mining methods are
necessarily governed to a great extent
by local conditions. and therefore
standardization is not practical, but II
is believed that the compilation and
publication of methods practiced in
various mines will prove of great val
ne to operators by giving them the
benefit of methods in successful use in
other mines. Dean Thomson said
that the mine managers of the Occur

this work to the fullest extent

FAVOR TAX ON GASOLINE
FOR ROAD MAINTENANCE
ALSO COUNTY SUPERVISOR OF
ROADS IN PLACE OF THE
PRESENT SYSTEM.

The special meeting of the Sho-
shone County Good Roads association
in the community room of the library
building last evening was largely at
tended, about so members being pres
ent as well as candidates for the leg
islature to whom the proceedings were
of special interest, as one of the CHIEF
purposes was to obtain public senti-
ment on the question of enacting a
law levying a special tax on gasoline
as means of raising revenue to meet
the expense of road maintenance. The
other important question considered
was the matter of appointing a coun-
ty supervisor of roads to take the place
of the present system of district road
supervisors. NJ. H. Sullivan. of Kel-
Iogg. president of the Good Roads as
ISOLATION. presided.
Gas Tax.
F. f. Stone. secretary of the Good
Roads association, presented figures
showing that a tax Of cents a gallon
on gasoline would amount to only 1882
a year on a car that travelled 5000
miles. which was taken as an average
basis and figuring a gallon of gasoline
for ~ miles. Assuming that there are
1900 cars in the county this plan
would bring in a revenue of $12.4SO. to
which should be added probably $4,000
obtained from tourist and other tran
silent cars.
County Supervisor.
In the discussion of the proposed
of a county supervisor
of all roads. it was pointed out that
under the present system the fixed
salaries of supervisors, two of whom
are under pay throughout the year
and the other five for seven months,
the cost to the county is $3.50. while
under the county supervision plan this
would be reduced to not to exceed
$4,000 This would include the cOun-
ty supervisor and five men and cat
erpillar who would give all their time
to the maintenance of the roads
Plans Approved.
Following the discussion resolutions
were adopted favoring the gasoline
tax and the county supervisor plan.
meeting OF the association will be held
following the election for the purpose
of urging the new board of county
to adopt the proposed
plan of supervising the roads.
