Modern Facilities
1t may be asked how, then, is this volume
of business obtained. 1t comes primarily, Of
course, through the ability of this concern
to distribute many lines of goods more
cheaply than other houses. It can load or
unload on it's private tracks at one time,
three freight cars and three other cars can
be placed on the parallel track of the Maine
Central railroad. In this connection It
should be noted that only three other con-
Germs handling groceries in Maine have track
privilege, and even in these cases the privi-
lege is limited. This eliminates tremeu-
dous cost in trucking to and from the rail-
road freight station which would involve
additional capital invested in trucks and
equipment, the employment of more men,
additional breakage and leakage and great
deal Of lost time and notion
The warehouse and elevator-the latter
contains storage bins for corn, oats and
wheat and also milling machinery-are par
ticulally adapted to efficient operation. In
the warehouse there are two large express
freight elevators which facilitate the move
nfent of goods from one floor to the Other.
A fleet of four trucks and three salesmen's
cars are maintained and goods are delivered
over radius of from ten to twenty-five
miles. Central Maine only is covered by
statesmen; the rest Of the State of Maine and

MACDONALD RIGID
ON EGYPTIAN ISSUE
announces Failure to Agree
With ZagIoul on Canal

LONDON, October S--A letter writ
ten by Premier Macdonald declaring
that the attitude adopted by Said
Iagloul Pasha. the Egyptian premier
has rendered Impossible for the pres
ent an agreement between the Brit
ish and Egyptian governments on the
questions left for eventual settlement
when the British protectorate was
Withdrawn in 1922, has been issued by
the foreign Office in the form Of d
white paper.
The letter is addressed to the Brit
ish high commissioner for Egypt and
the Sudan. 1t says that pending some
future agreement between the two
countries the duty of preserving or
der in the Sudan rests in fact, upon
his majesty's government. And"
premier adds. "they will take every
step necessary for this purpose"
Made Five Demands.
In the course OF conversations be-
tween the premier and ZaElou! Easha
the latter made five demands for
froditications in the Egyptian status
quo, namely, withdrawal of all the
british forces from Egyptian terri
Tory; withdrawal Of the financial and
judicial advisers; disa appearance of all
British control over the Egyptian
government, notably in connection
with foreign relations: abandonment
by the British government of their
claim to protect foreigners and
nlinorities in Egypt and abandonment
n the British of their claim to share
III any way in protecting the Suez
Canal.
II raised the question of the canal
straightaway," writes the premier,
"a
terest to us, both in peace and in
war" and he goes on to declare that
no British government in the light
OF its experience in the great war
could divert itself wholly, even in
favor of an ally. of it's interest in
guarding such q vital link in British
com nmunicationS.

There is nothing in the lettet to
show that the British prime minister
s;,n1e any nearer to agreeing to
Eaglours other demands than he did
h the matter of the canal. He de-
slares that the British do not intend
government policy and contends that
effective cooperation between Great
Britain and Egypt in protecting the
Suez communications might have
been insured by concluding a treaty
of close alliance.
Mr.. Macdonald also holds that the
presence of a British force in Egypt
provided for in such treaty would in
no way be Incompatible with Egypt

Weakness OF status Quo.
The letter says the British have no

ination for here lay the real balance of power in the convention.
 The Kansas switch to McAdoo and subseuuent New Jersey shift to Smith provided the only real demonstrations of the night session, although there were some minor squabhlcs. Chair man Walsh's appeal for orderly con duct to speed mp the balloting proved persuasive and the general good hu- nor of the delegates after their day of rest also helped.
 The favorite sons whose votes were intact today included James NJ. Cox of Ohio. whose 59 increased to G0 on the eighth ballot and stayed there. putting him in fourth place at tho finish: Carter Glass of Virginia. Sem ator Robinson of Arkansas. Governor Ritchie of Maryland. Senator Harri- son Of Mississippi former Senator Saulshury Of Delaware. Governor Bryan of Nebraska. and Governor Brown of New Hampshire.

 The process of shaking favorlte sons out of the balloting proceeded slowly yesterday. Governor Jonathan Davis of Kansas, at the beginning or the night session, released his 20 pledged votes to McAdoo, but he was still getting II votes at adjournment from other points. Senator Ferris Of Michigan was dropped entirely when his delegation split. after the seventh ballot, and so was Governor Silzcr or New Jersey. whose 2S votes were thrown to Smith as a counter 10 the Kansas switch to McAdoo.
 Governor Sweet of Colorado and Senator Kendrick of Wyoming had turned their votes loose much earlier, but the others hung on. their delcga- tions apparently waiting for more definite developments before commit ting themselves.

leaders, However, Express Them

New York, July l,--After la hours of voting for a presidential nominee, the democratic national convention was called upon today to start all over again with the 18th hallott,
 The first ih ballots gave the eon- veniiOn the appearance Of q more or less orderly marathon race in which the contestants tratted around m Inc track without any material change in pace or position, The 18th start ting post resemhled tho first in almost every essential detail except tho nus neral.
 Twenty four names in all appeared on the various ballots, hut most of them were of tho complimentary or strategic, fayofite son variety, and as tho delegates assembled today Wil- liam q. McAdoo and Alfred F., smith remained in the lead, and John w, Dayis of West Virginia was third.
 Three Leaders Gained.
 Tho three leaders showed steady gains throughout tho ballotting ycs- terday and last night. Smith. in scc- ond place, made tho greatest gain, his total haVinb climbed from a40ia on the first ballott to 3O5is on tho 18th. which was one loss than he received on the 1ith. McAdoo, meanwhile, had gone up from 43i to 473, while Davis total at the finish represented net advance of 30 over his initial 3l, although on tho 18th and 14th ballots he had reached 53h
 All Are Satisfied.

 With the McAdoo and Smith man agers both apparently fin control of enough votes to prevent the nomina- ton of anyone NOT to their liking, opinion as to when the decision will be reached varied widely this morn ing. Some said the final ballot would be reached late today or Wednesday. other that it might not come until Thursday or Friday.
 In this connection, attention was called to the wording of the rule re- quiring a majority of two-thirds of the delegates present and voting for a nomination. It does not, as hercto- fore. require the presence of two- thirds of the accredited delegates

 The strategists for Senator Under- wood also were optimistic. They oe- cupied themselves yesterday chiefly as on-loolIers. but claimed knowledge 10 much sentiment for their candidate among many delegations including those now counted as Smith support CTS and number from the south. Tho Alabama senator's vote fluctuatcd only slightly during the day, begin ming at 421s reaching q maximum of AS on the eight ballot. and ending at go F on the 18th.
 The Ralston Strategy.
 The fact that Senator Ralston net ted only one vote during the first 12 hours. starting with 30 and ending with 31 after touching 321s on the eleventh ballot, brought expressions of pleasure from Thomas Taggart of Indiana. who still is planning to give his first national pawpaw banquet on record in honor of his favorite's nomination.

BOOK REVIEW IS
GIVEN AT 10Th
CENTURY Club

The Twentieth Century club met at
the home of Mrs. G. C. Astle Thurs
day afternoon. Mrs E. M. Doll gave
a review of the last half of Sir Philip
Gibbs novel, "The Middle of the
Road Although in the previous re
port the review of the book by the
London Times Literary supplement
was comprehensive, it may be of
interest to know what our own New
York Times book review Of 1923 has
rather unfatteringly said. 1T seems
ungracious to stint praise to book
of such laudable purpose as this:
But a book reviewers first respon-
sibility is to the customer who wants
to know whit they can get for thei1-
two dollars And it must be told that
this novel by Sir Philip Gibbs, deal
ing with the state of the world two
years ago, contains very little THAI
wasn't in the paper two years ago.
Sir Philip is good reporter, and
when he tells what he saw in north
ern France, Paris, Berlin, Moscow,
and the Russian famine districts in
1921, he tells it well, but after all !:
is no longer news, Bertran Pollard,
like so many British boys, went into
the army from the university, and
came back fit for no trade but war,
and with no enthusiasm for that
After vain efforts to find work, and a
quarrel with his wife on whose nor.
ey he had been living, he finally. gets
job as continental correspondent
for a liberal weekly. Thereafter his
travels follow those Of Sir Philip.
Sir Philip is. moral and sentimental,
and during the war the reading pub.
lie wanted morality and sentiment.
But it does not seem that these quail
tiles have any great utility in this
period of so-called plade.
Sir Philip tries to produce an Ell
feet of sterness and strength by writ
ing Of the tragic aspect of the time
and is successful in presenting him
self as kindly gentleman viewing a
| distressed world, and declaring that
something ought to be done about it
