 It is almost certain that Britain will not consent to withdrawal of the fleet without the most binding pledges and guarantees from Musso- lini, including immediate cessation of hostilities, submission to binding arbitration and perhaps even with drawal of his armies from Ethiopia.

WITH some 80 passes east and west

the backbone Of the State, the visitors
have access, not only to intimate views
of the mountains, but to the skyline
itself, through the medium Of the
famed Long Trail. The Long Trail
has been called the biggest thing In
Vermont and the lodge of the Green
Mountain Club, in Sherburne Pass
near Rutland, offers one of many op-
portvlit to sample the beauties Of
this footpath in the wilderness. There
are several short scenic hikes that cam
be taken from here between meals.

Horse Association has given to YER

total of 1000 miles Of marked
trails and traffic free back roads for
horseback riders.
The guide book of Green Mountain
horse trails features many trips of
a day or longer, radiating from its
various riding club centers. Three
new circle" routes have been added
this season. There is a three day
trip from Woodstock, which includes
Plymouth, with an overnight stop at a

This year travel costs will be lower

ever" said Scoyen. "The air-condi-
tioping of passenger trains will no
doubt give an extremely noticeable
impetus to rail travel. To this must
be added the tremendous interest In
Out-of- door recreation. For the first

L
N rapid succession of announce
N ments of openings of Ver-
mont's resorts emphasizes
the early opening of Summer
travel to the Green Mountain State.
Earlier than in neighboring States.
MANY Vermont resorts count most OF
June in their season-and September
and early October as well-and some
opened their doors this season as
early as Memorial day.
With few exceptions, Green Noun
tain resorts are comparatively small
in size, intimate in character, well
adapted to long season, and their
numbers and distribution in all parts
of the State give visitors early and
late a great variety of choice of scenes
and activities. This week will see prac-
tically all Vermont resort centers
ready for the annual influx of vaca-
tionists and Summer residents.
Last year was the best Summer sea-
son since 1881, and already this year
the inquiries from other States re-
ceived at Montpelier's State House
largely exceed in number those of any
recent years. A notable feature is the
increase among those seeking infor-
nation regarding the rental of Sum-
mer homes and the purchase of farm
and village property for conversion to
Summer home uses. Many from other
States now come to Vermont in early
Spring and remain until snow flies.
A considerable number keep these
homes open for use through the Win
ter.
Vermont is increasing rapidly her
facilities for Summer and Winter rec
reation. Throughout the State are lake
and river bathing and boating facili-
ties, fishing, State forests and forest
parks, bride paths, hiking trails in
endless variety, always nearby are ho-
tells, camps, or comfortable tourist and
farm homes, characterized as a rule
by simplicity, good living and attrac-
tive surroundings.

We'll, Fred died six months ago.
That was tough. Dorothy went
to his folks home. got job in a
restaurant and kept Jim, but lost
the job. I couldn't feed the kid
regular and I couldn't take proper
care of him. I couldn't bear it.
so I took him yesterday to the
creek. He waded while until he
got tired. Then I led him out in
the middle and held him under

him out and sat down and held
him in my arms awhile and after

NO COMMEN n 7
BY ROOSEVELT
On NEUTRALITY.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 81. U.P)-
President Roosevelt today said that
so far as he knows nothing in the
way of a request from Great Britain
asking that the United States Join
in efforts under the Kellogg BRAND
pact in an effort to avert the Italo-
Ethiopian conflict has been receiv-
ed.
Mr.. Roosevelt dismissed questions
concerning the anxiety felt in Eur
ope over the Ethiopian situation
with that statement. made in re-
sponSe to the first question fired at
him at his semi-weekly press con-
ference.
Mr.. Roosevelt was equally non
committal regarding his opinion on
neutrality legislation. Sen. Gerald
p. Nye (RepD North Dakota. by
threats Of filibuster. has obtained
an agreement in the senate that a
vote on sweeping neutrality pro-
poSalS will be taken before the end
Of the session.
Mr.. Roosevelt was asked directly
OF the neutrality legislation at this
time.
He countered with a remark that
sounded very much like an if"
question. Asked whether he would
favor passage of neutrality legis-
lation at the present session, he re-
piled that he had said only a few
minutes previously that there was
no comment on neutrality legisla-
ton at this time.
Opposed by Pittman
Mr.. Roosevelt's non-committal at
titude on the Ethiopian situation
came as Chairman Key Pittman
(Dem). Nevada. of the powerful
senate foreign relations committee
placed himself on record against
mixing in these foreign affairs"
Referring to European dispatches
telling of efforts to get the United
States to take some action under
the Kellogg BRAND peace pact, Pitt
man said;
The Kellogg BRAND pact does
not provide Tor any sanctions anc
is only morally obhgating on the
conscience of a nation. The cove
nant of the League of Nations does
provide for sanctions, but We do
not subscribe to that.
Il do not favor, by notes or any
other way, mixing in these foreign
affairs. I don't believe We should
get into anything unless we can
back up our stand"
Sen. William E. Borah (Rep0,
Idaho, ranking Republican member
of the foreign relations committee
and former chairman, said that
he felt nothing at this time will
stay Mr.. Mussolini.'

There is no question that thf
letter came from Cities Service
company in Missouri. and We car
