CURRENT COMMENT
Unjust Criticism.

1t is sometimes rather discouraging
and disconcerting to volunteer work
ers Of various organizations to find
from time to time that their work is
being criticized Petty remarks and
rumors often grow in magnifcence as
they are retold and finally there are
those who believe these rumors and
think that there is something wrong
IN IN organization.
We are publishing to-day a state
ment by the executive committee Of
the Red Cross who handle the work of
st. Johnsbnry and the Caledonia coun-
ty chapter. 1t is a very Illuminating
statement and one that everyone
should read. 1t shows ~conclusiyely how
unjust some criticism becomes in the
light Of the real facts.
We sincerely hope that this state
ment will bring the much needed boost
that the Red Cross roll call drive
should haye to put Caledonia county
fover the top" It would be a very
serious mistake for Caledonia county
to fall behind in the fine work which
the organization has been performing
for this community.
II is extremely unfortunate that
any criticism should have been directed
at the executive secretary, Miss Lora
Varney, whose work on this county has
brought the highest commendation Of
the New England directors of Red
Cross work, and whose training in Red
Cross work has qualified her as one Of
The most expert In that line in New
England. She has given unselfshly Of
her time, money and energy to promote
her work just because she believes she
has a great duty TO perform and wishes
TO do IT we'll II is a pleasure to those.
who know of Miss yarney's fine work
to come promptly to her defense
against any petty remarks that might
be made. The Red Cross work is being
efficiently and carefully performed in
Caledonia county. Let's all get behind
it and put the 1923 drive across in no
uncertain measure.-St. Johnsbury

Writing from his winter home in
San Antonio, Texas, Publisher Luther
B. johnson Of the Randolph Herald
and News introduces us to ~''dengue''
by informing us that dengue is a mall
ady that il bothering Texas people
very much and that may be expected
to invade Vermont in due season, This
dengue, as Publisher johnson ex-
plains il, is a mild form of grip
and not SO very mild either" Dengue's
antecedcnts are not very well known,
but it is supposed to have come from
Mexico, Central America or the West
Indies, much like many other Of our
disease outbreaks-from some foreign
land. Those contracting the disease
cache all over develop high fever, are
sick for a few days or a week, emerge
depressed and run down ebut seldom
more seriously affected" Dengue, ac-
cording to Mr.. johnson, has proven a
gold mine for the doctors Of San An
tonic. Judging by the description,
dengue is a malady which Vermont
might desire to ward of if possible,
although, as the Randolph man says:

ence in Boston that the income tax
was being considered in this state "as
a new source of Revenue"
BY whom is the income tax being
considered
Not by the average Vermont citi-
zen, who long since has discovered that
however it is levied the tax eventual
ly comes back on him. He isn't con
sidering the income tax or any other
new source of revenue" but rather
giving thought to cutting down gov
ernment expenses TO such an extent
that even some Of the present sources
may get a bit of relief.
As the st. Adams Messenger says,
the common people as a matter OF fact
want the government TO get along
with less mone instead of more. The
Messenger has no idea, any more than
the Reformer has. that the way to
build up Vermont Is TO increase taxes
or "fnd new sources"
For a state Of III population and
wealth we are at the present day not
only paying a heavy tax, but it, bur
den IL such as to protest. Why,
in this circumstance, start GU TO look
for moreg It's reduction the people
want, not an increase, no matter how
cleverly 1t may be disguised, no mat
ter whether ii be made TO appear that
IL "hits the other fellow" Taxes are
included in the cost of doing business
and the public pays the cost plus
a profit or the business fails.
If II were traced TO its source this
income tax idea would in all likeli-
hood show up not far from the door
step Of certain Vermont banking in
%terests that are hoping to secure a
reduction in bank taxes through ac-
ton at the next legislative session.
Now if the banks think they are pay
ing more than their share of taxes
il is a wholly legitimate act for them
TO tell the legislature 70 and ask for
relief but they may as well be in
formed here and now that they will
not find wide public sympathy for a
proposition that contemplates closing
up one source of revenue and opening
ND another.-Brattleboro Reformer.

@TAMMANY HALF IN VERMONT

"TAMMANY HALL" in VERMONT.
Because the Democrats Of Lamoille
county made a "honse to house can
vass' prior to the recent election and
triumphed in the county result, the
Waterbury Record declares the aetiyi-
ty was nothing more or less than the
Tammany Hall method OF doing po-
litical business 1t is doubtful wheth-
er the Democrats of Lamoille county
have done anything K lay themselves
liable to such q description. Certain
" il is not Objectionable for a politi-
CAY party to make a house to house
canvass If ii sees a chance for victory
thereby. Perhaps the contemporary
means that in the persistency and
~tlroroughness of their activity the
Democrats Of Lamoille county resem-
bled Tammany Hall, without the usual
opprebrium thrown in. The Demo
Gratis Of Lamoille county proved them
selves to be live wires, politically and
their activity might be copied by the
same party in other counties of the
state, even by the dominating party
itself. Presidency and thoroughness
are virtues when correctly applied in
politics.

STORM MISSES !,
GRAND FORKS
Neche Appears to have Beer
Center of Rain and Hail
Disturbance.

Grand Forks was missed by a heavy
rain. wind and hail storm which
struck the northeastern part Of North
Dakota late Friday.
+. Neche appears to have been the
center of the hail storm, some dam
age to grain being reported from that
locality. Cavalier also received hail
along with wind and rain. The rain
will probably cause some delay in
grain cutting in the north central part
of Pembina county.
Grafton, st. Thomas, Langdon and
other towns report high wind and
rain but no hail or damage. There was
a slight shower only at Boweznont
and Drayton and the torn missed
Pembina entirely.
Farther to the south .Larimore and
Hatton report rain and wind but no
hail. .E'a 10
There was also q slight hail at Be-
midi, Mimi, which seems to have
done no damage.
