Gov. Baxter Speaks
Of Interest in the
Maine Natl. Guard

EVER since Gov. Baxter has been
governor he has visited all the en-
campments of the Maine National
Guard, including those of the infantry
ana coast and field artilleries. This
year the infantry is at Camp Devens.
MASS, the coast artillery will be at
fort Williams, Maine, and the field
af'illery at Augusta. Gov. Baxter,
accompanied by his private secretary,
Gilbert r. Chadbourne and some
members of his official military STAFF
were at Camp Devens on THURSDAY
and Friday.
AS communicative chief Of the
states military and naval forces |
nave taken deep interest in improv-
ing their personnel and in placing
them upon a secure foundation. said
Gov. Baxter.
L want to see the Maine National
Guard the most efficient in the coun-
Try and on recent trip to Washing
ton, L was encouraged by the favor
able comments on the Maine Guard
made by the officers of the United
States War Department.

than the federal requirements call
for. and this shows that Maine is
willing to do her part in providing for
the national defense
The cost of the Guard. like the
cost of everything else, has grown.
and the last legislature appropriated
larger sum than ever before for
this work. Today the Maine Guard is
under the command of a recently ap-
pointed brigadier general, Albert
Greenlaw, and he Is in charge of the
encampment at Devens. This is a sig
nal honor to Maine, for in the seth
brigade are troops from three states
Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont.
Il believe in the theory Of the civ
ilian soldier who volunteers for SER
vice. and these men stand ready to do
their part in any emergency. In a
great crisis of course the draft must
be resorted to. so that the burdens of
military service may be borne equally
by all. 1 have encouraged the Ma
tional Guard and urged citizens to
give it their moral and material sup
port. For these reasons I intend to
continue my practice of visiting every
encampment to show my appreciation
of the work these officers and men are
doing.

STATE HOUSE
Meeting Council 10 A. Tuesday, Aug

the years, 1916, 1917 and 1918,
amounting in the aggregate to
$9340.
The railroad tax is based on the
mileage operated and the gross re-
ceipts. In this case the dispute as
to the amount due arose from the
fact that in computing the mileage
of the Boston & Maine Railroad the
State assessors excluded the mileage
of two electric railroads in New
Hampshire. owned and operated by
the Boston e Maine Railroad, the
railroad company claiming that the
mileage operated by electricity
should be included as a part of it's
line and system. The advantage
for the State of the electric mileage
and gross receipts Of the electric
roads being excluded in figuring the
tax, results from the fact that the
receipts per mile on the electric roads
are not nearly so much as on the
steam road.
BY the decision of the law court
the State not only receives the
amount sued for in the action. but
the decision of the court fixes for all
time the basis of taxation as claim
ed by the State. On account of the
decision the State gets about $500
a year more than it has been receiv-
ing.
The majority decision of the law
court reads in part as follows:
1.-The tax actually accesses by the
State Assessors upon the defendant
company for the year 1916. was $176,-
250.31. In computing said tax, the
State Assessors excluded from their
consideration all electric railroad
mileage operated by the defendant
company and all electric RAILROAD
transportation receipts derived there
from. The defendant company paid
to the State the tax according to the
defendant company's computation,
but refused to pay the sum of ST.
907.09, the difference between the
States method of computation and
the defendant company's. 1t is
agreed that If the said electric
mileage and transportation receipts
were lawfully excluded by the State
from the computation of the tax the
sum of s2,907.09 is lawfully due from
the defendant company to the State,
together with interest thereon at the
| rate of ten per certum upon one-half
thereof from July /, 1916. and upon
the remaining one half thereof from
October /. 1916"
A dissenting opinion was signed
by Justices Morrill, and Dunn of the
law court.

Boom in the Sheep j
Industry Indicated,
SAYS C.. III. Crawford

Z. II. Crawford, manager of the
Maine Sheep and Wool Growers'
Association, is preparing list of
the people who desire to purchase
either eve lambs, breeding ewes or
breeding sires for this summer and
fall, and also a list Of all people
who apply for assistance in getting
sheep of this kind. It is anticipated
from the number of inquiries that
there will be a substantial increase
in the sheep family of the State dur
ing the next few months, Mr.. Craw-
ford stated yesterday. If those hav-
ing good, sound. healthy breeding
stock OF either sex for sale, will noti-
~ Mr.. Crawford. giving a descrip-
ton, he will be glad to make record
or the same and do all possible to
assist In either buying or selling.
One Of the most encouraging
things Is that in nearly every case
where farmers are asking for rams.
they are insisting on pure bred rams
of merit Mr.. Crawford pointed out.
The association with the assistance
OF the Department of Agriculture,
the Extension Service and the Farm
Bureau. is planning to put on a cam
paign for more and better sheep. BY
getting the above information they
will be greatly assisted.
The central and southern part of
the State having an abundant crop
or hay will cause many of the farm
ers to look for something to which
to feed the hay. AS the question of
help is SO serious and farm labor
so difficult to obtain, farmers gener-
ally are looking for some possible
relief from the present situation. AS
sheep seem to fit into these condi-
tons, the labor involved is COM
paratively very slight. and the
amount of grain necessary is very
small, these are very great induce
ments, said Mr.. Crawford.
1t is hoped that every friend of
the sheep will take hold and assist
in giving them a good boost. The
average production in wool should
be increased from the present sof
about 6 3-4 pounds per head to at
least 8 pounds and the present pro-
duction of IS per cent. of lambs
should and could be increased to 100
per cent. at least. The above would
warrant substantial profit on tho
investment.
1t is very gratifying to the man
agement OF the association to find
that there has been a substantial in
crease in the membership of the as
ISOLATION in the last few weeks and
still several others wishing to come
in. Mr. Crawford declared that all
the indications are that the sheep
Industry is in for a boom and the
prospects for profit are even better.

es Of Field Workers will be charged
to the appropriations for Children's
and Mothers work. There is one SUI
pervisor and ten Field Workers. The
workers are not overpaid; rather are
they underpaid If salaries of the
Department are to be compared with
salaries in other State Departments
requiring especially trained en-
ployees. In fact, the better trained
workers we have the more money is
saved by securing free homes for
children committed to our care and
also by proper supervision of Moth
ers' Aid cases. There are six en-
ployees in the office. This is the
least possible number of clerks with
which we can handle the large VOL
ume of work required.
The Department has a three fold
Functional Board of Charities and
Corrections; Board of Mothers Aid
and Board of Children's Guardian.
| The first named Board has general
supervision of the expenditure of
public funds throughout the State for
charity and correction. With the di-
rect expenditure of these funds the
Board had nothing to do. AS a SUI
pervisory board. it inspects annually
| or oftener, and reports to the Govern
or and Council. the Legislature and
the public, upon the condition and
con- parative cost and efficiency of
the charitable and correctional in
situations, the county jails, the city
and town almshouses, the incorporat-
ed charitable institutions and chart
table corporations desiring to solicit
funds. The Board is also required to
satisfy itself and certify to the State
Auditor that the persons whose care
is billed against the State appropria-
lions to charitable hospitals and in
situations are unable to pay for their
care themselves. In addition to the
inspections of these institutions the
Board is also required to compile BIZ
ennially for the Legislature a COM
plete statistical report of the money
expended by each of the five hundred
odd towns Of the State for poor relief,
showing the general objects of expen-
diture and the number and classes of
persons assisted.
"As Board of Mothers Aid, 1t ac-
lively SuperviSes the aid now being
given to mothers with dependent chill
dren. Every application is Endorsed
by the proper city or town officials
after which a field worker of the
Board makes thorough investigation
give aid or not. Each case granted
is visited twice yearly by the Field
Worker and the Municipal Board re-
ports quarterly as to whether the aid
shall continue or not, or be increa sed
or decreased. During the year ending
June 30 1923. 118 new cases were
granted. but 103 old cases were dis
continued.

pense of the State and the town of
settlement, for the care of any de-
pendent child under sixteen years Of
age who is without parent or grandT
parent of sufficient ability or other
relatives able and willing to provide
for it's support. The courts are en-
powered to commit neglected children
into the custody of the Board. AS
the law is mandatory. 1t Is practically
impossible for the Legislature to an
ticipate the needs of this department.
Therefore the present appropriation
may be inadequate to meet the emer-
gency"

Charities Board
Gives Statement
On Its Finances

"Our attention has been called to
an article appearing in a recent edi-
ton of Boston newspaper, relative
to the small appropriation made by
the Legislature. which would cripple
the Departments work for the coming
two years, said Secretary CRUDE B.
Cornish Of the Board of Charities and
Corrections in a statement given out
Friday. 1.-THE report is so utterly at
variance with and shows such lack of
knowledge of the facts that we desire
to make clear statement that the
appropriation was larger than it ever
has been before.
