VT. SENATORS
ARE BOTH FOR
PACIFIC TREATY
After Four Hours Voting
Senate Ratifies It By
67 to 27

After four hours of steady vot-
ing the Senate ratified the Pacific
treaty by vote of 81 to 27. The
opponents fought hard on the
Robinson reservation which pro-
posed that in tho. event of trouble
arising between one of the sigma
tory powers and an outside pow
er, the latter should be invited to
take part in conference with
the otner four powers. This was
finally defeated SO to 33.
Vermont's senator's, Dillingham;
an dPagc, voted for the ratifica-
ton.
The four powers treaty binds the
Unitd States, Great Britain,
France and Japan together in an
agreement to preserve peace in
the Pacific ocean, and is regard
ed as the most important arrived
at by the Washington conference.
In effect it carries out the idea Of
the League of Nations and had
been referred to as "a league in
the Pacific"
1t is predicted that u stiff fight
will be put up on the Notifications
clause of the naval treaty. This
provides for a status quo so far
as present fortifcations are CON
cerned. 1t means that the United
States will continue its plans for
the fortification of Guam, the key
to the Pacific and the Philippine
Islands.

BASKET BALL
IS POPULAR
IN VERMONT
Original Celtics Played to
More Than 100000
Since Oct. 1st

Basketball was never more pop
ular in Northeastern Vermont
than it was during the past win
ter. Thousands of fans watched
the outcome of every contest
played by the American Legion
Company ID and l. quintets, the
two leading basketball teams in
this section of the state. 1t was
extremely rare for game at the
Armcry to draw less than 500 per-
sons and some of the games drew
a crowd of 500.
A school team that burned a
bright trail through scholastic
sporting circles during the winter
was the Newport high school five,
which just lost out in the race
for the state championship. The
Newporters boasted the best
school team that has graced the
ranks of the Border City school
for the past decade. Were the
state more completely organized
and better system of rating the
various high school teams provid-
ed, there is no doubt that New
port would now be battling with
Burlington high and Cathedral
for the championship. Just as in
Newport, where big crowds turn
ed out to see the school boys IN
action, Hartford high school at
White River Junction furnish
ed big crowds all the thrills that
result from fast basketball play
ing. Hartford won the champion
rhip in the Connecticut valley
league.
nasketball met with a rcjuvcna-
ton all over New England and cs7
peciallv in New YORK city. This
game has nourished in halls and
armories all over the metropoli-
tan territory as well as in Madi-

professional champions, have
played to more than 100000 per-

United States customs officers at
Newport last night when $500

seized together with carload Of
lath in which it was concealed.

car was shipped from Canada to a
point at Vancemoro, Maine, tran
sit seals were affixed through Can
ada.
Ordinarily d consignment of this
kind from large shippers is passed.

known to the public, of getting af-
ter cars containing contraband,
this car was held up.
No details could be learned Of
the destination of the lath and its
accompaniment as the officers re-
fused to divulge any information
which might hinder further invest
tigation.
A large crowd gathered as the
news of the seizure spread to see

quarters, where it will later be deS-
troyed by orders Of the Depart
