COMPLIES NAVY

Especial to Caledonian-R Record)
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5-When
information of a dependable char
acter is sought relative to the
United States Navy, its ships, its
personnel, and the wherewithal for
its maintenance, the inquiring
mind usually thinks of the Navy
Yearbook, which is forthwith CON
suited if available, for it is univc9-
sally recognized as an authentic
and authoritative compendium of
reliable data on Uncle Sans sea
fighters and their establishment.
To Green Mountain folk it is
therefore of more than passing in
terest to note that a native Yer
monter is engaged at this writing
in the compilation of the current
1920-1921 issue, the author of the
present volume, which is yet in
proof-sheet form, being Elwin A.
Silsby, of St. Johnsbury and
Washington, secretary to Senator
Page, and clerk OF the Senate com
mittee on naval affairs.
The Navy Yearbook is an an
nual government publication, and
the forthcoming issue is work
embracing "all acts authorizing
the construction of ships of the
new navy and d resume of an
nual naval Appropriation laws
from 1883 to 1921 inclusive, with
tables showing present naval
strength in ships and personnel
and cost of maintaining the navy
of the United States; also statis-
tics of foreign navies."
In his foreword, or predatory
note, the compiler states that the
volume contains thirty-eight APP
preparation acts, commencing
with the act of March 9, 1883. In
cluded in the list are the special
war or deficiency appropriation
acts of June Is and October 6,
1917, March %, April 26, and June
4, 1918; the personnel law approx
ed March 3, 1899; and the war
personnel law approved May %,
1917. The appropriation acts from
1915 to 1921 inclusive are printed
in full to the end that the book
may show the appropriation legis-
lation since the beginning of the
World War.

WINTER PRICES
OF MILK TO Be
MAINTAINED
n. E. Milk Producers
Association Announce
Rates

Local milk producers will be in
terested to know that the Sales
Committee of the New England
Milk Producers Association have
lust decided to continue the pres
ent milk price, 8 1-2 cents per
quart for 81 per cent milk deliver
ed in Boston, for the next four
months. In the past two years
there has been a decrease in the
price of milk in January. The
Sales Committee is determined to
carry the price through the winter
this year.
In an effort to back up the Sales
Committee to the fullest extent
the Association is going out on a
definite campaign to strengthen
its locals throughout the territory
to resist any cut in prices which
the dealers may attempt to force
on the association members. The
decrease in price during the winter
is not warranted by conditions. 1t
has become a habit which the
Sales Committee is determined to
break.
There is at the present time a
great shortage of milk. Butter
prices and the prices for other
dairy by-products are good.
Grain prices are high, making
the cost of producing milk high.
The demand for milk is good and
there is no disturbing element to
unsettle the milk market in the
opinion of the Sales Committee.
The decrease in prices in winter
the past two years was due more
to a partial Generalization of the

Red Cross Asks for
Clothing, Toys and
Books

If the Thrift shop is to continue
its usefulness in st. Johnsbury and
1t long ago demonstrated its great
need, there must be additions to its
stock of goods. A general house
cleaning to pack boxes for the
Near East has depleted the coun-
terS and goods of all description
are needed for men, women
and children. There is a
constant demand for women's
waists and warm underwear for
men, women and children. Gar

ties are also much in demand.
The shop is open this afternoon
and evening in charge of Mrs. c..

generous donations. Red Cross
bags will be called for any time by

MONTPELIER
Arsene Mady Asked to
Use Phone as PreteXt
to Escape

MONTPELIER, Dec. AR
senc Mady, who escaped from
Washington county Jail Saturday,
has not been seen since. He effect
ed his escape late in the afternoon.
Saturday the officials of the jail
were away on business, and it ap-
pears that Mady requested to use

around the Jail, allowed him to
come out and use the phone ana
he suddenly departed while her
back was turned.
Mady was arrested November

neither hat nor coat.
He is also wanted IN Rutland by

ard Trayhan Of Pawtucket, r, l..
were both placed on $500 bail
when arraigncd before United
States Commissioner H. c. Shurt-
left in Montpelier a week ago.
Neither could furnish the bail and
both were placed in the county
jail to await trial. The men were
arrested at the top of Burnham
hill in Woodbury. on the night of
Nov. "a, and the car they were
driving was found to contain ia
quarts of Canadian beer and a
case of gin.
Deputy U. S. Marshal Henry C.
Lawson was serving papers in
East Montpelier and was notified
of the escape by telephone. He re-
turned at once and set out in
search of Mady, whom he expects
to get, although perhaps not i'm
mediately.

WATER RATES
VITAL ISSUE
AT NEWPORT
City Council Provides
Two Streets for
COasting

Rules, rates and regulations APP
pertaining to the water depart
ment was the principal topic for
discussion at last nights regular
meeting of the Newport City Coun-
Gil.
These matters had been left to
a committee to redraft but this
committee was not ready to report
at last nights meeting. There will
be a special meeting of the City
Council with Mayor Lindsay at
eight o'clock, Dec. II for this pur-
pose.
PERSONALLY" said Mayor Lindsay
az am not in favor of the water
meter system, but, officially if it is
the vote of the city to use the
yurdstick measure, | will vote for
it in view of the action of the four
Aldermen at the preceding session
expressing appoval of the universal
adoption of the water meter for all
sci vice requirements over the
whole system as far as practicable.
This would embrace its installa-
ton for service for domestic use
including all family service.
"Our water system is operating
under special charter or grant
anu amendments thereto. The
city charter is a separate grant and
has nothing to do with the admin
istration of the water system and
department.
"The Mayor holds that until the
administrative features presumably
governing the water system and
department run into Section 9 of
the city charter-and its later
amendment, are withdrawn from
the city charter and proper
