VERMONT SENATORS
AT LAKE MANSFIELD
Senator Kingsley Would Have Budget
Bill Come Early in Session
-fIoyeylloI. Speaks

STOWE, June 27-Beautiful Lake
Mansfield, neSted between two curving
lines of the Green mountain foothills,
with its ample club house suggestive of
one of its distinguished founders and
Isis name mountain, Mount Admiral
Clark, towering in the near distance,
was selected by the surviving menu
bers of the senate OF 1921 for the scene
OF their annual summer outing Saturday.
Thirteen senator's, Gov. James Hart
ness, Lieut.. Gov A. w. Foote and their
ladies and guests, made up a party of
over 40, and politics in its personal sense
was hardly mentioned. The program
consisted of a reunion dinner, served at
the club house, some informal speaking
and round circle on the porch until
just before midnight.
After dinner, President Foote called
the assembly to order and turned over
the affair to Senator Harvey X. King
sley of Rutland. Senator Kingsley
urged that change be made in the
rules of both houses so that the budget
bill. instead of coming into the senate
during the last week of the session,
should be sent from the house during the
first month, So it might be fairly and
fully discussed and adjusted.
Governor Hartness, who spoke later,
reminded his hearers that the times
We're changing and that the budget of a
decade since would not answer for the
more complicated demands of today.
The governor warned the senators that
they were merely ''fooling themselves
when they passed bills limiting salaries,
then empowered the board OF control to
fix such salaries regardless of the stat
ute. He said Il budget should cover
definite items and salaries once fixed
should not be increased. Speaking Of the
pending Investigations. the governor said
it was not his purpose to hamper the de-
partmentS, but to find out the most eff
cent way 10 handle them.
Senator AIcKillip of Burlington agreed
with the toastmaster about an early re-
port on the state budget, but would make
II within IL days of the assembly of the
Legislature.
We have about 10 commissions and
boards" said the Chittenden county sen
ator. tand a board sat in Burlington
the other day to consider a claim of SJ6
Counting carfare. hotel and other ex-
penses, it cost one and one-half times
that' whole amount to pass on it. We

Other speakers included Senators VIII
Iiams Of Rutland county, Andrews of
Bennington county, Carpenter of Frank
in county. COburn Of Chittenden county.
Russell of Caledonia county. Dana.
Farnham and Estee of Washington
county. Osgood of Windham county and
State Forester ". q. Hastings. who
made a brief appeal for ''reereational
forestry or state parks, trails and other
tracts for pleasure purposes. Mason >.
Stone Of Montpelier, former lieutenant
governor. and H. l.. Hindley Of Rutland
also spoke briefly.

OBSOLETE PARTY LABELS.

So far as the North Dakota state election is con.
eerned the party labels Of Republican and Democrat
as would those of the Wings and Tories which were
used in eighteenth century England. u ~
There is no issue between the Republicans and
Democrats in North Dakota The whole issue is be-
tween the Nonpartisan league and the lndepend-
ents The eaguers realize this and are making ar
rangements to have all their votes aligned in the
same party column regardless of what their former
party afliation may have been. The Independents
must realize this and handle their campaign in the
same way.
Only enough Independent votes should be cast
IN the Democratic primary to prevent the league
from capturing the machinery Of the Democratic
party For this purpose from 5000 to lO, 900 votes
will be ample. The remainder Of the Independen,
Democrats should cast their ballots in the Republi.
can primaries where the league is centering its
fight.
There is still time to change your registration
tor the primary, and every Independent voter should
make sure that he is registered where his vote will
be most effective in the great fight against the
Townley bunch.

| Congressman O. 3. Burtness put of the big
issues Of the present campaign UP to the voters
when he asked II the record Of the past Nonpartisan

the state wished to place league representatives in
office to manage the two million dollar state mill
and elevator now nearing completion here.
The record of the league administration in the
management ofthe state enterprises wasa CHASTITY
None, with incapacity, corruption and mismanage-
ment standing out on every page Under the league
management the Drakt mill, the Home Building
association, the Bank Of North Dakota, and the
Werner Creamery were SO handled that the losses
to the people Of the state will exceed million dol
lars according to the closest estimate obtain
able. There was not only lack OF ability on the
part on the managers but also apparent cal1ous

CITIZENS TRAINING CAMPS.

q, Citizens training camps, to prepare the young
men of the United States for the duties they may
be called upon to perform in time Of war have just
been opened by thelwar department. at a.numbcr of
points in the country. Reports on the attendance
at these camps are still lacking but it is to be hoped
that every camp will be crowded to the limit of its
capacity.
1t is the province Of these camps to train men
to such extent that in the event Of war they will
fill competently the noncommissioned and lower
/ commissioned grades in the line of the army.
Figures recently published by the war depart
rnent are significant. They show that in the event
ofswar the utmost the regular army could do would
be to supply experts for the various special service
jsections required by the complexty of modern war
fare. For the line soldiers, the infantry which is
/, the trunk from which the special services branch
iof, it would be necessary to depend on the mass
of citizens.
That the United States, may not be compelled
Ito fight another war for years to is the hope
of every good citizen but the desire for peace is
guarantee of peace. Conditions such today that
iwar is by no means impossibility. If war comes
the United States will save immensely both in lives
and money if it is in position to put adequately
trained army promptly into the field:
| The present feeling of the country is such that
], a large standing army is mpracticablc. and prob
ably undesirable, but the training for yoNng men
which these government camps offer may IN time
to come prove to be one of the biggest assets the
United States possesses. Should the United States
engage in another war the man who has takea a
course better still the full three camp courses
offered by the government will eount himself among
the fortunate.

WHY NOT A PUBLIC BLOC?

This seems to be the time Of "blocs" in con-
grcss We already have the farm bloc which has
done efficient work for the agricultural interests of
the country during the present session of congress,
1.-THE organization Of other blocs along similar lines
for the good of various other industries which hold
important places in varou, sections of the county
lis already talked Of, as we'll the possibility Of a
labor bloc"
Under all these circumstances why wouldn't a
-'bloc, for the general public be good idea? Such
an organization If one existed just might find
a mighty good field OF effort 1t might for instance
demand that congress stop tinkering with the tariff
long enough to take some effective steps towards
securing all adequate supply of coal for the coming
winter at reasonable prices. 1t might suggest that
the ship subsidy question is less important to the
average in this country than the probability OF
"a nation wide rail strike. With such a Bloc even
the burning question of hcAsale of liquor L. S
shipping board vessels might be made to take a
tback seat while some of the problems of real i'm
lportance to the ordinary man on the street were
given attention. ss
/ The trouble in congress today is that every sort
of special interest including that of the >farmcrs
Ecomes in for attention than the big mass ol
us neither very rich nor very poor who just dub
along the best way we can and somehow muddle
through. A bloc in the interest of the general pub
lie would be such an innovation in Washington that
it would undoubtedly make the politicians gasp
with amazement, but it might do some mighty good
work Just the same.

Z FAR EAST CLOUDS CLEARING.


During the armament conference atlNNashington
last fall the Far Eastern situation held the center
stage. and the necessary contact between the west
and the east was probably the most vital topic un-
Ger discussion them
Since that time. important changes have taken
place in China and Japan, the two greatest powers
OF eastern Asia In the foyncr country quite little
lighting has taken place. and is still going or-but
the political aspects of the conflict have been far
more direct in their appeal to the rest of the world
than have the military which when everything else
is said, seemed to be chiefly Of local nature.
Ii Yuan Hung has been restored to the presi-
dency and this step appears to be in the direction
OF definite settlement of the problems that have
vexed China for some time. There is promise Of
reconstruction in the fact that man who has dem
onstrated his political ability. his diplomatic sagac-
ity is once placed at the head of the govern
ment.
y The president just now returned to power, was
deposed about five years ago by the militaristic
party whose stern and consistent opponent he had
been ever since his election. 1t would appear that
this chauvinistc group now is losing ground. and
that spirit of sound liberalism will be injected into
the governmental affairs of China, and there seems
little doubt that the reunion between South and
North eventually will take place. At least Ii Yuan
ung is dong what he can for the purpose of bring
ing this about. the suqcccds-and there is every
reason 10 Dclleve that ne Wlll-S country likely
to settle down and work out its own problems in
beneficial peace This fact will be Of significance to
the United States, for between the two countries
great many bonds Of friendship and commerce arc
i'll existence
At about the same time the interesting an
nouncement is made that Admiral Baron Kato has
become premier of the Japanese empire. He, too,
opposed to-. miltarism and imperialism, and al
though he does not identify himself with any par
tieuFar faction, he is known as highly intelligent
liberal; Baron Kato will be remembered in this
country as the head of the Japanese delegation to
the Washington conference, and his appointment as
premier may be taken as rather definite indication
that the Japanese government is friendly i'm its at
t'tudc toward the decisions reached at that gather
ing.
Baron kato's post will strengthen the ties
that b'nd the two great Pacific powers, Japan and
America, together.
Best of all-Li Yuan Hung's presidency jim China
and Baron katos premiership In Japan undoubted-
" will inaugurate a era Of intimate friendship
between the two Far Eastern countries, for both
men have shown, by their acts. by their recorded
views and by their general attitude toward inter
national Problems that they are in touch with the
progressive thought of the world.
That thought is hostile to the spirit of inter
national jealousy, malicious rivalry, and to the doc
trine of aggression.
