Mnny Amcricans (bavc wishcd that this country had got iiito tho wor a little carller and staycd i;u it a litlo longcr, With thcsc concessions madc, it s casy cnough to demonstnrc tlu' fun- amciital injustico of tho Ki)ling attack. Ilis chargc that America whk rospon- iblo for the preninturo tcrnrjnation of the fighting nnd tho ensy nrmistico tcrms s quickly repudiated in I'aris'niid Lon- on with the explanation tliat H wns the with the explanation that it ras the 'rencli nnd Brltish authoritics tvlio bad thcir way in tlic armistice, while tho nierican authoritics wanted to-i cnrry tho war straighTto Berlin. ' As for America going into tflio war 'for gold" and "liaving the worldi's gold" ts n result, that is mercly sill.v. Anv niind capablc of dcaling with busincss tntistics can find out opprorimntcly what the war lias cost America, in dol- irs. It mny be ?50,000,000,000 so far, ono way and nnothcr, includlng tho lost Ionns to tho allics. And Americjt is the only ono of tho victors that put in no elaim whatcvcr for reparation, o thcrc is no chance of gctting any of it back. The taunt miglit bo lluiig back, too, that if this country did gct tlio money, Grcat Britaiu got the lnnd. Ilcr terri torial possessions linve bccn incrcased by somc 2,000,000 squarc lnilcs. Eng- ishnien thcmselves arc pointing out tiiese fncts. llut all such disputntion bctwcen na- tions gets nowhere, cxcept to mako un ncecssary trouble.

Iho conlrnct for the stccl structurc bns been awnrded to the Palmcr Stecl ,"f,,V.0'y,,kp' Mnss., nl the cost of tbe buildiiig with its cqtiipinent will bo about ? 40,000.

Latcr heir families are cxpected to move hcre, provided stiitablo Iiomes can bc found. With tlie prcsent ncute housc shortage it will be a difficult matter for Brattle boro to housc these people and it is fclt that with this new industry coniing to tovwi. which hns a payroll of bctwcen S 1,000 and ?5,000 n week, something sliould be done in thc way of providing homes for them. Tlie conteniplatcd liorsepower to bo used at thc new works aggregates about M)0 whcn the lond is full connectcd. bout 70 per ccnt of the granito used by tbe Presbrey-Lcland Co. will come from thc qunrries at West Dummerston, tho location of which, togcthcr with thc com parative neamcss to tho ndministration oilires in New York eity, was orie of the prime reasons for tlie removnl of the plant from Barre to Brattleboro.
