Committee on
Snow Removal with
Finances Assured

The committee on snow removal
which was organized on the initiative
of the Waterville- Winslow chamber
of commerce. has been unusually, &C
tive since it's formation last week.
Several sub committees have been
appointed and all have done their
best to prepare for the removal of
snow which may block the highways
in this vicinity if heavy storm
should occur.
Announcement was made Monday
afternoon that the committee on fin
arcing the proposition had made a
great deal of progress and from their
present plans should be able to fin
ance the plan successfully. Harry
E. Green, the chairman of this COM
mittee and ]. ]. Hennings, an associ-
ate, have been very active since their
appointment, and these two report
that they have visited the various
towns between Waterville and Pitts
field in the interest Of their project.
In the various towns which they
have visited they have received the
utmost courtesy and have met with a
very cordial reception. Every group
of selectmen with which they have
cooperation. From the prospect at
present, the removal of the snow
from that part of the highway will
be financed without great deal of
trouble.
According to the present plan, the
various towns will pay their proper
tional part of the cost of clearing the
highways. The selectmen in every
town between Waterville and Pitts
field have promised the finance COM
mittee their finest support and have
volunteered to contribute the amount
which is proportional to their former
expenditure when the entire task de-
volved upon the towns. This will aid
materially in the plans to keep the
main highways open during the win
ter and if the other towns and cities
between Waterville and Bangor will
offer as fine cooperation, the entire
distance should be kept free from
snow all winter.
Blanks for subscription to the fund
are being circulated among those in
terested in the project and the cor-
tributions made will be welcomed ~
the committee. Without any doUb;
many of the individual users of this
main highway will be glad to aid in
making the plan a success.
1t has not yet been decided who
will be engaged to do the work of re-
moval but it is understood that
George Vose Of Waterville, who has
done some very fine work of this
kind for the city of Waterville may
be chosen. This, however, must be
decided at a later date.
Further meetings of the various
committees will be held during the
week and work will be ,risEed to get
| ready. for any possible emergency
which may occur in tie near future

The Russo. German Treaty.

A treaty of amity between Ger.
many and Russia has just been
signed. Its provisions have not been
made public. but it is stated that it
does not establish an allia nee between
the two countries, but merely paral-
lels and compliments the LOcarno
pact between western European ma
tions. 1t involves only the relations
of Germany and Russia, says an
official spokesman for the Berlin gov
ernment. and not the relations of
those countries with other European
powers.
Naturally, in the absence of spe-
cif1c understanding of the terms of
the new treaty, 1t Is the subject Of
speculation at other European capt.
already suspicion has been voiced
that under this arrangement just ef-
fected Germany would be required to
report to Moscow all confidential ne
gotiations with other powers and the
League of Nations affecting the in
terests OF both. This suspicion. 1t IL
reported. is regarded at the Wilhelm
strasse as nothing short Of an affront.
There is no rightful ground for
resentment at Berlin for this express
sion Of doubt rega riding the sanctity
of western European diplomacy. now
that Germany has definitely entered
upon terms OF amity with Russia in
treaty which has been semi. officially
described as bridge between Berlin
and Moscow. 1t Is perfectly well
known that the purposes and methods
of the Russian government are viewed
with justifiable suspicion throughout
western Europe. and any government
that draws into such close relations
with the Soviet as those that are
assured by the new treaty places
itself within the range of warranta.
