UNCLE SANS LIQUOR BUSINESS

1t is perhaps unfair or indiscreet 10
pry too closely into the saloon business
conducted by the United States, through
its shipping board, on ocean liners.
Nevertheless certain questions raised in
a set of resolutions introduced in con-
gress are too interesting to pass by in
silence.
One resolution asks the shipping board
to inform the public whether or not it is
buying liquor in England to sell on its
vessels. This appears to be a trap ques-
ton, intended to cause embarrassment
because the United States government
has been asking the British government
to help it curb the smuggling of liquor
into this country. An unkind critic
rises to remark that of course the ship
ping board is buying booze in England !;
otherwise how could it sell pure Scotch
on its ships?
Another resolution wants to know why
if the government must operate bars on
its ships, it does not use the bootleg
liquor confiscated on land There would
be a big saving in that. unquestionably.
The confscated booze costs nothing. But
DO the reformers who are pressing these
resolutions want to kin off the travelling
population? Whiskey bought in England
is at least safer for the drinkers.

There is so muchatalk these days of
the near approach of the saturation point
in automobile ownership that it is bit
surprising to read that 20 per cent of the
citizens of one of our large cities are still
regular patrons of the humble trolley
car. The figures would, of course, vary
in different localities, but it shows that
the man who looks out of the car window
and thinks that everybody but himself
has an automobile is all wrong. He be-
longs to the great majority in spite of the
best efforts of the motor statesmen.

Country Doctors.
Randolph Herald.

1t is no new discovery that a shortage
of medical practitioners exists in some
sections of Vermont, principally the rural
localities, and the reasons are perfectly
patent. In this profession as in many
lines of business, the tendency is toward
Capitalization. Physicians find that they
can get a better living and can
get it easier in the large towns and
cities than in the scattered communities
So long as this is so we need expect no
change. Some day the big places will
become saturated to use a modern
business term, and then doctors and
other folks will begin to trek back toward
the omen country

The Bennington Banner in referring
to the planting of trees along highways
suggests that instead of planting mere
shade trees that it would seem wiser to
set out apple trees which would furnish
blossoms in May shade during the hot
weather and an abundant crop of apples
in the fall. Apple trees seldom grow
tall enough to furnish much shade but
motorists, at least, would appreciate an
abundant roadside crop of apples in the
fall.

1t is said that some of Vermont candi-
dates for public Office are losing their
fear of dollar state tax. 1t is better
that conditions should continue to walk
in the fear of a people thus outraged,
than that iron should enter the souls of
the people later on and lead them to rise
and smite their big tax adversaries.
