Corporation Meeting
Scheduled for Jan. %

The annual meeting OF the Farm
ington Village Corporation will be
held in Grand Army hall Thursday
evening, Jan, %. Many important
matters will be considered, including
what is to be done in regard to the
care of the village streets. Expert
ments have been made with calcium
chloride the past two summers, and
with tarvia on the principal business
streets last summer, and whether
these treatments are to be continued,
or whether the street sprinkler shall
be relied upon entirely. There is a
feeling among some of the people
that taryia should be used upon the
principal streets, but that all or a
part of the expense should be borne
by the town instead of the village
only, and this is matter which will
undoubtedly be tEreshed out. Then,
an issue of water department bonds
comes due in April of this year, there
is now no money with which to take
up more than very small propor-
ton OF these and some provision will
nave to be made for taking care of
the remainder. esidents Of Middle
street have asked that another n.y.
drant for fire protection be installed
On that street. The assessors are
now at work on the annual reports
of the water and ordinary depart
ments and expect to be able to make
a good showing in both departments.

and Mrs. c. O. Perry, who has been

Colby Professor
Says America Will
Be in World Court

The firm belief that the United
States is approaching the point where
they will join the World Court was
the keynote of an address delivered
by DIR. William j. Wilkinson. profess
sor of history at Colby college, at the
monthly meeting of the Mems Bro
therhood of the Methodist church
held at the Taconnnet club house last
evening. He averred that this would
come to pass despite the opposition to
the Court which at best will only de-
lay Americas entrance.
The doctor has as the subject Of
/ his address, Our International Rela-
tions," and he said in opening tn; t
lby far the most Of these was the
World Court He pointed out that
not only is the present administration
strongly favorable to the entrance Of
this country but also that a senti-
ment for the adherence Of America to
the Court appears to be sweeping the
country. -
A rather peculiar political situa-
ton has arisen from the discussion of
the matter DR.. Wilkinson said, and
that is that party lines have been
broken asunder. Leading the oppose
ton is a Republican, Senator Borah.
chairman Of the committee of foreign
TeldllOIIS WHIf6 duOIHeF SejIdlOF Stdnu-
ing out against the Court is Mr. Mos
es, a staunch Republican from New
Hampshire. The third member of the
triumvirate of the opposition is the
Democratic Senator from Missouri.
Mr.. Reed. On the other hand, one of
the most loyal supporters that Presi-
dent Coolidge has in his stand on
foreign matters is Senator Swanson
of Virginia, a Democrat.
The World Court is no new thing,
the doctor stated. He cited such
names from history as Aristotle,
Dante. Grotius and Rousseau as men
who had many times expressed the
belief that differences between ma
lions could be settled by arbitration
and Cancellation as quickly as they
could by force of arms. Tennyson in
his poem. 'Locksley Hail." predicted
such thing as the court, DR.. Will
kinson said. and he argued that the
Court exemplif1es to the fullest de-
gree the teachings of the founder of
Christianity. Jesus.

the United States since the opening I
of this century was, to the doctors
mind, strong argument for the
entrance of America to the World
Court. The traditional policy of the
country in foreign countries has
been that of arbitration and he said
that Roosevelt had been strong
believer in the Hague Tribunal,
while one of the most conspicuous
features in the life of Taft was his
earnest activity in behalf of world
peace.
Wilson, DR.. Wilkinson said, was a
man not without his faults; he was
stubborn and possessed of q ONE
tracked mind and the speaker did
not believe that he was a match for
such men as Lloyd George and
Clemenceau. But he quoted Mr..
Strachey, editor of the London Spec
tator, to bring out the fact that,
Wilson'S name will be written large
on the pages of history a century
or 200 years from now" The League
of Nations, the doctor said, "is 200
times as strong now as it was three
years ago." despite numerous and
obvious faults, and he added that 1t
will grow and improve. Wilson, said
the doctor. as man identified with
the beginning of great movement
will have his name written large
in history"
Harding, the speaker averred, was
devoted to the World Court and his
death was fastened by over strain
resulting from work in it's behalf.
He said that high commentator was
due President Coolidge for the work
he is doing at the present time.
In returning to the opposition to
the court he characterized Borah as
a man of courage, integrity and vi
rility of mind, by far the outstand-
ing member of the senate, and
man who sincerely desires world
peace. Among the leading arguments
or the opposition, the speaker men
toned the contention that the court
Is but way to get the United States
INTO the League of Nations, the idea
that international law should be
codified before America enters and
the fact that Borah has promised
his constituents that he would op-
pose this country's joining the court.
AT the close of his address DIR.
WILKINSON said that the day of ma
llonallsm is dying and that the day
or lnterpationalism is being born
Just as states rights gave way to
nationalism in the United States. So
VIII nationalism give way to inter
nationalism.

Hold Hearing in
Regard to Erection
Of Overhead Bridge

A hearing relating to the overhead
bridge across the Maine Central
railroad tracks at North street was
held before the Public Utilities Com
mission in the city building yester-
day morning. The commissioners
present were Charles e. Quincy.
chairman; Herbert W. Trafton and
Col. Albert Greenlaw. Col. George
f. Fogg of Portland was the counsel
for the railroad while Cyril NJ. Jolly.
the city solicitor, represented Wa
terville.
Asa Morrill, of Portland, engineer
of construction for the railroad, in
his testimony said that he had care
fully examined four plans of bridges
to replace the obsolete bridge that is
now in existence. Two of these called
for wood construction while the
other two were for steel. He recon-
mended that a steel bridge with a 20
foot roadway, enough for two lanes
of travel and a sidewalk. 90 feet in
length be constructed there. The cost
of such a bridge was estimated at
s99O3 and it would be necessary to
change the grading of North street
two feet on the east side and three
feet on the west side. Mr.. Morrill,
said that bridge of the same di-
mansions made of wood would repre-
sent an expenditure Of s9232. The
time for building the steel bridge he
said, would be about three weeks ana
it would require that a detour be
used.
Eugene Crawford. the city engi-
neer. testified for Waterville. He was
of the impression that the bridge
suggested by Mr.. Morrill, would meet
existing needs but he would not det-
nitely declare himself in favor OF II.
He pointed OFT that the State Hlgh,
way Commission had recommended
that a bridge with a "a foot roadway
be nut across the tracks and he also
stated that North street is a STATE
aid road. Mr.. Crawford thought thal
the necessary detour could easily De

uary 10 in Augusta at which time

relative to the 20 foot BRIDE by let
ter. II it is decided not to accept II

To Hold Discussion
Of Snow Removal

Haven Sawyer, chairman of the COM
mittee recently appointed to take steps
to keep the roads of Maine free from
snow during the winter months. will
be present at a public meeting at the
Chamber of Commerce rooms this aft
ernoon at O'Clock and all who are in
terested in the matter are asked to at
tend. Last winter a strong sentiment
in favor of keeping the roads open
was expressed and it appears that this
Year motorists will not be obliged to
contine their riding within the limits
of cities. Already arrangements have
been made for keeping the snow off
the roads between Bangor and Port
land with the exception of the 25 miles
of macadam between this city and
Pittsfield. 1t is probable that this will
he the principal matter discussed at
the meeting today.
