thought this limit not needed. Mr. Rider
didn't favor any tinkering with the
school tax Ihw; he didn't favor the bill.
Mr. Abbey of Essex said the basic prln
-'IPl? of tills matter was the equalizing of
n school tax, aim tnousni mis uiu
' towns Is a little less than W cents. Mr.
Kendall of West Windsor thought tho ex

DISCUSSION OF HIGHWAY TAX.
H. :tv, making State highway tax ten
cents. Mr. Rundy of St. Johnsbury told
of the burden resting on that town in
the matter of general taxation, and hoped
the Legislature would not increase the
burden.
Mr. Pap of ISarro didn't want to op
pose anything that was for the Interests
of the State as h whole, but argued about
as the gentleman from St. Johnsbury.
Mr Ilrldges of Athens favored the bill
a-- .i rTOHl ,i(il I" In II tews
Mr. Newton of Reading thought If tho ,
lil.. 11H.4-.C i a u. .inn .uiui.l in e ii del thai
miin d( tin small towns aro asking for
this year. This Is the opinion of tho com
mittee, unanimously.
Mr. Cole of Guilford thought highways
of the State nnd been neglected for 10)
yeais, and It was true something was
done. This bill provides nn equable meth
od of getting nt this Important question.
Large towns have been built up by tho
small ono; and should bo ready to help
In this matter of highways.
Mr. MeFeeters favored tho bill. Ho be
lieved In granting the relief nsked for
and giving the small towns a chanco.
Mr. Ralley thought an amendment of
the bill necessary and moved to uinetid
by putting tho apportionment on the
basis of road mileage Instead of grand
list
Mr. Gnlo said the gentleman from New
bury was in error as to purport of tho
hill.
Mr. Russell of Klrby explained the In
tent of the bill and Mr. Ralley withdrew
his amendment nnd favored the bill.
Mr. Conlnnd of Rrnttlelmro opposenl tho
bill, not believing lu tho prlnclplo Involved.
Some of the large towns are burdened
more now than tho smaller towns,
Mr. Durick of Castleton favored the bill
on the ground that tho people of the largo
towns enjoyeel the benollts of good roads
In the surrounding small towns. He did
not consider It almsgiving.
Mr. Bailey of Newbury, In answer to
Mr, Conlnnd showed that Windham coun
ty received more from the State tax than
It pnld.
Mr, Tape eald tho people who would
havo to pay this tax would not be tho ones
who would ride in automobiles and on
rubber tires. 'Ho favored direct approprls.
Hons to help Individual towns when in
need, liibtead of this act.
Mr, Vlncont of Rurllngton protested
against tlin policy of Inking from large
'. -iwus for the benefit of sinalll towns It j
is unjust and uucoiiKtitutioual. In small .
tuwus the appraisal is often unfair
Mr, Russell denied that tho appraisals
wr unfair. The trade of small towns
goes to build up the centers.
Mr. Kendall of W est Windsor considered
It likely that better roads which would
result would attract summer visitors
which would help tho large places muru
than the fnrmlng centers.
Mr. Whlto of Woodstock criticised tho
bill, which he said would not benefit tho
ronds.
Mr. MeFeeters of Ennsburgh read from
the State highway commissioner's report.
If the Stato House goes to Burlington,
Chittenden county would havo no reason
to complain.
Mr, Vincent said that If Burlington got
the capital, ns It undoubtedly would, a
good road would bo necessary to move It.
Ho referred to tho heavy burden of his
city Incurred for good ronds. Ho hinted
that there was a remedy, It tho bill
passed.
Mr. Ayors of Swanton questioned the
justice of the law, which robs one town
to benefit another. Tho legality of this
policy has never been submitted to tho
courts.
Mr. Hyde of nnkersfielel considered the
matter broader than State lines. Tho
whole State Is Interested In good roads
and profits by them .Tho tax goes Into
permanent work.
The bill was pnsFcd on a viva voce vote.

Significant Feature of the Business Sit
uation, According to Bradstreot.
Rradstreet's Veimont weekly trade re
port says that a s-lgnldeant feature of th"
business situation Is the active demand
for both skilled and unskilled labor. The
prospuets jre good for extensive lumber
operations and the lumbermen arc mak
ing preparations to that end, this will
men the employment of a largo force of
woodchoppers and other workers. Thu
marble and slate quarries and mills are
very' busy and other machine shops are
doing an extensive business. Tho yield
of apples Is In fair quantity but the qual
ity Is Inferior and a considerable portion
of tjhc crop will nut be saleable. Collec
tions In semral show no change.
Rurllngton reports buslnesi unchanged

fairly well employed, price Is firm nn a
moderate demand for rough stock, retail
Hade Is quite brisk, the favorable weather
having stimulated trail- somownnt, Job

of goods nnd 'olleetions are fair. The
organ business nt Brattle-born is satisfac
tory; overall fiv torles arc buy and the
large baby cauluse plant Is doing well;
retail trade Is moderately active, but the
wholesale business Is good. In White
River Junction biH'ness is satisfactory

are especially busy for this time of year.
Collections appear a shade better thun a
