i. S. Government Turns
Down Battell Offer
Continued from rage One

der a resolution that has Just pas
sed the Senate and is now pend
ing in the House.
This property was bequeathed to
the United States for park pur-
poses by the late Joseph Battell of
Middlebury, on condition that the
Government should construct and
maintain suitable roads and build
ings therein and should provide
caretakers of the proposed park
etc. If the Government should not
accept the bequest the lands should
revert to the college, it was fur
Their provided in the will. 1t is
now determined that the property
is not acceptable to the govern
ment for this purpose, and the
pending bill discharges the BatteH
estate from any further obliga-
tons to the Government in the
premises, so that the Vermont
courts may proceed to the neces-
sary steps whereby the property
may go to Middlebury College.
Senator Dillingham; has been
keenly interested in this matter
and two years ago introduced in
the Senate a bill providing for
the acceptance of the tract for
national park purposes by the Gov
eminent. Various Governmental
were consulted on the
subject, but no action was taken
until last week the Sen Com
mittee on Public Lands reported
adversely on the Dillingham; bill
and, at the Vermont Senator's re-
quest, offered as a substitute the
resolution declaring that the be-
quest be declined. This measure
has now passed the Senate and it
IS believed will shortly receive
action in the house,
where Representative Greene is
ooking out for its passage.

Keeping Diaries in Grandfather S
DAVIS

A great many of the old timers
used to celebrate January LIST by
making the first entries in Their
new blank journals, often given for
Christmas presents. Some of them
of an interpretive tendency felt
better after getting their explosive
thoughts out Of their system in this
way.
The diaries kept by our grand
parents illustrated their painstak-
ing attention to the daily routine
of life. They might note down
their visit to the town to buy gro
ceries as if it was an event worthy
of being handed down. If preserved
these old records present an inter,
esting picture of the way people
lived in the difficult conditions Of
those times.
Modern young people would
Laugh at the trivialties in these old
journals that their grandparents
kept. But not many of the pre-
sent day crowd have the capacity
for sticking to a self appointed
task the way these old diary keep
ers did.

CURRENT COMMENT
POISONING THE FISH

" A few days ago the Banner
printed an interesting article tel
ling of the immense fish supply
there used to be taken from the
Connecticut river.
When the early settlers came
here and for fifty years after
wards hundreds of tons of high
grade fish were taken every year
from the river and might be to-
day but for the stupidity of So
called civilization in polluting and
damming the stream. The dams
first, and later sewage, sawdust,
icoloring mater, sulphide and other
impurities is robbing the people of
Vermont, New Hampshire and
Massachusetts of fish to the value
of much more than a million 4
year.
1t is to be doubted if the prof
its from and the income derived
from the dams and pollution off
sets the loss occasioned by killing
the fish supply and replacing the
high grade fish with pickerel,
suckers, mullets, etc, Of less food
value.
The Connecticut is not the only
stream so Damaged. Practically
all the larger streams in Vermont
and many of the smaller suffer
from the same cause. Many of
+ the lakes and ponds are polluted
and also damaged by raising and
lowering their level.
The Banner has no doubt that
Vermont alone is losing much
more than am illion dollars a year
through the pollution of streams
and lakes. There Is no reason in
the world why the people of Yer
mont should suffer tnisw aste.
1t would be good business for
the state 80 change its system in
this matter.
1t will be done sometime but
probably the public is not yet edu-
Gated to point where sentiment
will compel. so important for
ward step even though it would be
of ten times the value to the state
of all the reforms proposed at the |
coming session of the legislature. |

EDITORIAL
THE MENTALITY OF SPEED
ERS

A Detroit judge says that people
who speed automobiles unreasonab-
" are either weak minded or wilful
wrong-doers. He proposes to sub
ject them to mental examination.
If mentally competent they are to
be given Jail sentences.
Some speeders show so much
lack of judgement as to suggest
that mental defects may have led
to their exaggerated ways. But
there is in the experience of fast
driving a certain intoxication that
sways the judgment of people who
are intelligent enough, leading
them to do thoughtless things OF
drive in a way which on reflection
they would admit to be wrong. A
still more disagreeable element OF
speeders are just plain road hogs.
Appeals to reason will touch part
of these folks. but others can be
swayed only by stern assertion OF
authority.

man will reach his maximum
strength on the first ballot and
that if he doesn't win then he will
be out of it.
Mayor Bailey, of Winooski,
keeps plugging along and there is
no denying that he has made a
good impression in certain sections.
The report has gained circulation
that Bailey is in favor of an in
come tax, and this cuts both ways.
Some farm organizations have
gone on record as favoring such a
tax. and this might eventually
mean farmer support for Bailey in
case Martins cause should become
hopeless, but at the same time.
there is also opposition to the new
form of taxation, and such OPP
position may feel it unsafe to put
its trust in Bailey.
Doctor Osgood, of Rockingham,
seemingly is going to appear at
Montpelier with pretty much the
southern end of the state with him
with the exception of such farmer
representatives as are with Martin.
The doctor is held in high regard,
is recognized as a man possessed OF
good sound judgement to which is
added valuable legislative expert
ence. No one doubts his ability
to fill the job in a highly creditable
manner. There is, however, feel
ing that he is hostile to the big tu-
berculosis eradication appropria-
ton and friends of this cause are
not looking with friendly eyes to
his candidacy for this reason.
Aaron Grout, the last of the four
main contenders, evidently has
been increasing his strength all
along and is a very formidable
candidate. He also is conceded to
be big enough for the part, and
the fact that he has not served in
the legislature before is not doing
him injury because of his long ex-
perience in the state house in other
which service was just
as valuable, if not more so, than
actual attendance in the legisla-
ture as a member.
In brief, it all hinges on what
Martin does on the first ballot. Al
ter that, or at least after the sec
ond ballot, it becomes a horse race
if Martin has not captured the
prize. One thing seems certain.
Each candidacy is an honest one.
That is, none of the candidates
seem to be resorting to the old
game of scoring up so as to make
sure of a good committee chair
manship. And if this is the case,
t would not be surprising to see a
battle royal decelop next week at
