submerged smut of l40 acres of
cow pasture and left only So
acres of tillage and 40 acres of

farm from a 25 or 80 cow dairy to

The Newport Electric Light Co.
offered Mrs. Hitchcock $500,
which her counsel Aaron H. Grout
and E. A. Cook advised her not to
accept. A suit in trespass was
started in July 1921 in county
court. The defendant, John A..
Prouty, through j. w. Redmond,
proposed to arbitrate. This the
counsel for both sides finally
agreed to, provided they might Sc
lect three disinterested persons
of sound judgment, with the result
that the matter was brought to a
hearing Tuesday morning before
Judge F. M. Sears, who. is town
clerk of Irasburg. George O. Bur-
ton,town clerk of Derby and Sher
burne Lang of Lyndonville, an
expert in the. estimating and val
Uation of farms and timber.
The evidence of John A. Prouty
manager of Newport Electric
Light Co., defendant, tended to
show that the most liberal dam
age would be $500 to $4,000. Mrs.
Hitchcock's testimony placed the
amount at between $4,000 and
$1,000.
The award of $500 with four
years interest at six per cent per
annum about $4700 is the final
settlement.

New-York tribune., 1922-04-15

After mature consideration Gov
ernor Miller has signed eight of the
nine Lockwood housing bills All Of
consequence are approved-the only
one unapproved being an unimpor-
tant one relating not directly TO
housing but to the return of jury
fees in certain rent actions. Messrs
Lockwood and Untermyer are en-
titled to hearty congratulations.
The Tribune, while recognizing
that an emergency suddenly arising
called for special protection for ten
ants against the rapacity of greedy
landlords, has not considered the
anti-rent laws proper as a cure or
even an ameliorative for the housing
evil. That evil was primarily due to
lack of habltations, and the speediest
way to remedy the abnormal con-
ditlon probably was to let economic
action take its course and attract
capital by large profits. More
houses are not commonly secured
by making builders believe their in
vestments are unsafe. The only one
of the original Lockwood acts with
brick and mortar in it vas the one
giving exemption from taxation to
new structures of the wanted type.
On second trial Messrs. Lockwood
and Untermyer have done better.
Not only have they secured the ex>
tension of the time of the tax ex-
emption, but a law under which in
surance companies may lend up to
10 per cent of their assets in the CON
struction Of apartments in New
York City to rent for not more than
50 room monthly. 1t is known
that one company is ready to lend
500, 100000 under this authoriza-
ton, and this means, it is estimated
10000 new apartments. This is nc
small gain in itself and doubtless
will encourage other capital to
invest.
SO the outlook is at last good. All
that remains to be done is to club
into due subjection the contractors
and sellers of material and the
Brindellized labor unions and all
and sundry who by conspiracy to ex-
tort artificially enhance building
costs. Thus there remains work
for the snickersnee of Mr.. Inter
myer. The public hopes he will
continue on his job and keep his
smiting arm in good condition.

slaughter had taken part in drunk
en- party" with his associates Lisso-
lutte men and women; yet the acquit-
ting jury supplied him with GER
tificate of character which suggests
that he is something between Sir
Galahad and Chesterfield. On his re-
turn to Hollywood flowers will be
strewn in his path and the resump-
tlon Of the film in which he was
shown at the time Of his arrest

Motion picture producers object to
censorship and inquire with panied
surprise why their business is tat
tackled" They will find their answer
in the foregoing paragraph. Motion
pictures have become the chief
amusement Of the children. who will
be the future citizens of this coun-
try. If they are not kept clean they
will be suppressed, Let producers
remember the fate Of the saloon.
The wisest course the motion pic
ture managers can pursue is to re-
tire this particular star to private
life. His guilt or innocence of the
crime for which he was tried does
not matter. What does matter is
the undisputed fact that he was
caught taking part in an orgy and
conducting himself in an altogether
disgraceful fashion.
Seeking to maintain the popular
ity Of such man is an extremely
foolish thing to do. If the motion
picture people are prudent they will
not only make their plays clean and
wholesome but they will insist on
decency among the persons who are
featured in them.

Against the Ocean Roll

The successful experiment with a
120-ton gyro stabilizer confirms the
result Of previous experiments with
smaller gyros, and may be accepted
as convincing proof that even the
largest ocean liner can be prevented
from rolling.
Whoever has played with gyro-
scope top has noticed its resistance
to attempts to throw it off it's bal
ance. In the case Of the gyro sta
bilizer this resistance is magnified.
TO the pressure Of a wave the sta
bllzer offers counter pressure. Ex-
periments have shown that not even
the biggest single storm wave has
enough power, despite the belief of
travellers to the contrary, to knock
ship much more than three degrees
from the perpendicular 1t is a sue
cession of blows rather than one
that makes the ship roll. The gyro,
therefore, need only have stabilizing
power sufficient to resist the first
blow. 1t is thus possible for naval
engineers to determine the precise
amount of resistance needed for
ships of different tonnage and shape.
Several vessels in the navy have al
ready been equipped with gyros, but
never before has stabilizer Of the
size of the present one been built.
nor has one ever been installed on
SO large steamer. Weighing only
about 100 tons, it is powerful enough
to stabilize ship of 10000 tons.
If effective on the Hawkeye State.
the stabilizer will soon be installed
in other ocean liners. Rolling will
thus be eliminated, although pitch
ing in heavy storm will still affect
small vessels. No longer will ships
go wop with a wiggle between

Author Turnulty's FoozIe

Mr.. Tumulty said in the preface
10 Woodrow Wilson as | Know Him
that he had written the book with
out consulting the ex-President and
didn't expect the latter to read it.
There is nothing to show that Mr..
Wilson did read ii. At least he
never commented on it, although it
contained many illusions of secre-
tarial grandeur and many illusions
TO secretarial craftsmanship which
would probably have made Mr.. Tum-
ultys former principal smile or even
vince.
1t seems as if Mr.. Tumulty
thought that what he could do with
immunity as an author he could do
with equal immunity as a politician.
He must have anticipated that the
ex-Presldent wouldn't read the "mes-
sage" delivered in his name by his
former ante-chamber councillor to
The Tammany Cox Jefferson Day
diners. The message" was read,
however, and has been tartly dis
owned.
From advising Presidents Mr..
Tumulty has taken to making them.
He is now Warwick:ng for James Nj.
Cox. He undertook to organize op-
position to ratification of the four
power Pacific treaty and brought Mr..
Cox on from Ohio to help out on that
job. He rounded up twenty-some
Democrats and four Republicans, but
failed to beat the treaty. Since then
he and Mr.. Cox have been trying to
fasten the League of Nations or
nothing" issue, coupled with another
Cox candidacy, on the Democratic
party for 1924.
But Mr.. Tumulty forgot Mr.. Nc

which deposed George White, Mr..
Oc0s bosom friend. The great ma

The Berkshire Mmchausen

From the Berkshires comes a
story Of a modern Baron Munchau-
sen who, discovering three wildcats
fighting over dead partridge, fired
one shot and all three animals
dropped. The State of Massachu-
sets has graciously paid him
the bounty of $5 head to
which he is entitled, but so far there
is no information as to whether or
not he has sold the movie rights of
his action.
From the State of Maine a few
days ago came word that wildcats
had profited by late snow with a
thin crust to Kill large numbers of
deer. 1t appears that the fall was
deep and soft. so that the deer.
breaking through the crust with
their small, sharp hoofs, found move
ment difficult and flight impossible.
The wildcats, being lighter and hav-
ing broader feet, could move on the
crust and thus had the deer at their
mercy. Being by nature ferocious,
they took advantage of this oppor-
tunity to kill and to gorge them
selves on venison.
SO great is the destruction Of
New-York tribune., 1922-04-15

is confused by an insistent false
propaganda. Many sincere persons
i'll this country, for example, assume
that in some way or other France
is defending armament as per so
desirable for her. The best way to
remove this impression Is TO lose no
opportunity to discuss disarmament
and how it may be attained.
But though the unskillful French
diplomacy does not sufficiently allow
for the effects of propaganda, this
is no reason for not seeing the
hypocrisy of Tchitcherin' solicitude
for disarmament. He represents a
government which rests on pure
military force-one that for more
than three years has refused to hold
free election, which has the worlds
largest army and which has waged
aggressive wars on Poland, Finland,
Rumania, Georgia, Armenia, Siberia
and the Ukraine. It's present mo-
tives are transparent. 1t would
erect camouhage to conceal the guns
which terrorize the Russian people.

Luck or Good Judgment

1t may have been good judgment
or it may have been merely good
luck, but whatever it was the de-
oision of President Harding and Sec
retary Hughes to send no delegates
20 Genoa has been quickly vindi
Gated
It was not, of course, polite to say
VIXEN the invitation to attend was
declined that the conference held out
little hope of bettering world con-
ditions, but there is no harm in say
Ing so now. The gathering, because
ef the way it is constituted, contains
ueds of futility. 1t is difficult to
Keep a solid front when only friends
nre in consultation; but there is no
prospect of quiet when delegates
bring their guns along. A time may
eome when Germany and Russia can
sit down in good faith at common
table, but it has not yet arrived.
Neither Germany nor Russia in
any true sense is interested in the
official Genoa program. They are
not now internationally minded
only nationally minded. 1t is not to
be expected they should be anything
svse. Filled with lf-commiseration
especially Germany, they are out to
get something for themselves--and
nothing other. Germany has but
one political purpose in her thought
-debt-dodging, Lenines delegates
have but one-holding on to power in
Russia. So Germany looks on Genoa
as a place to wall in and the Boil
shevists view it as merely soap box.
Lloyd George will be diligent with
his oil can, and so will Premier
Facta, but if one recalls with what
difficulty harmony was kept at
Washington it is beyond hope to ex-
pect to keep the discordant elements
at Genoa in order.
Not only did the constitution of
the conference practically forbid it's
success, but it's formal agenda were
artificial and necessarily insincere.
Every sensible person knows what
is the matter with Russia-namely,
the continued existence there of the
Bolshevist tyranny. Likewise, every
one knows what is the matter with
Germany-namely, her inability to
adjust her mind to meeting her obli-
cations. Yet these essentials were
not mentioned in the program. No
wonder the riot began at once. AS
for trade, why bother to talk Of it
until conditions permitting trade are
created? AS Mr.. Hughes once re-
marked, trade with vacuum is i'm
possible.
