reconquered its action in forcing uoctor
Thompson 'out.

scribed by tho law, to reconsider his
retirement. .

The plan to retire Doctor Thompson
as president of Central High School cre-i
ated a rumpus at ,thc meeting of the
committee. . "
Doctor Thompson? whose retirement
is ordered in compliance with a state
law pertaining to pedagogues in his
class more than seventy years old, noti
fied the board ho would institute legal
action to retain his, seat.

Governor Refuses to Call Legis

WANTS REFERENDUM TO
DECIDE STATE'S POSITION
Declares Supreme Court's View
of U. S. Constitution Threat
ens Free Government.
By the Associated Press
Rutland, Vt., July 12. Governor
Perclval W. Clement today issued a
proclamation refusing to call the'Legls-
lature in special session to make possible
ratification 'of tho federal amendment
for woman, suffrage.
Tho governor's proclamation follows
,a conference which ho held nt Wash
ington recently with Senator Harding,
at which It Is understood tho Republi
can nominee for President discussed
With him the possibility of having rati
fication completed by the Republican
Legislature of Vermont.
Reasons for Refusal
In giving his reasons for refusing
again to call a special session Governor
Clement said tho proposed nmendment
clearly invades the constitution of Ver
mont, thnt the present Legislature was
elected before the question of ratifying
me imcrai amendment had arisen and
that the peoplo'of the state hnvi linrl no
opportunity to express themselves on
the issuer Tbo governor proposes that
tho matter be taken up by the next
Legislature, and urges that candidates
lor election no required to declare them
selves on it
Governor Olement'a nrnrinmnttnn i.
SCrted that. "as it stnmla nml la Intar.

federal constitution threatens the foun
dation of free popular government."

Supreme Court of tho United States has
in a recent decision, Ilnwke vs. Smith,
June 1. 1020. declared: ,
" i, h(J referntlunt provisions of stnto
constitutions nnd statutes cannot be ap
plied, consistently with the constitu
tion of tha United States, in tho rati
fication or rejection of amendments to
it.
At Mercyvof Lobbies
"This decision leaves, tho people nr
the mercy, of any aroun of men. who
may, lobby a proposal for change in the
teaerai constitution through congress
nnd then through tho Legislatures of tho
states. .
"In the fnce'of'thts sltuntlon. I am
asked to call tho Legislature of Ver
mont; Into extraordinary session, not
tor tno purpose.or debating, considering,
deliberating on,the question at issue,
but with a majority of its members
pledged beforehand and in private, as
I understand' It, to ratify tho proposed
amendment.
"If tho people of Vermont, in ac
cepting a place in tho union of states,
inadvertently lost in whole or in part
Jho right of self-government and con
ferred It on a Legislature, there is nil
the more reason why a Legislature.
Bhould not pass upon a question which
has arisen Bince their election and upon
which their constituents hae had "n
onnortunity to oxnress themselves.
"We muat now either remodel our
constitution to conform with the man
date of the Supreme Court of the
United States, or tho constitution . of
tho Unlted States must be amended to
provide for a referendum to the free
men of the several states before amend
ments to that constitution become ef
fective. As it stands and is Interpre
ted by tno supreme uourt tooay. tho
federal constitution threatens the ioau

By Associated Press
Spa, Belgium, July 11. Germany
can fulfill futuro engagements only If
they are based on bcr financial capac
ity, said a statement outlining tho Ber
lin government's plan for reparations
submitted to the allied, premiers here
today. Tho German budget must bal
ance, tho statement Insisted, or there
would be a rapid increaso in the float
ing debt nnd consequent Inflation that
would neutralize her capacity to pay.
There -must also, it was asserted, be
no further diminution in-the fundamen
tal bases of German political economy,
which arc already much weakened.
Assuming that Germany's ability to
pay is used as a basis, tho statement
asked that reparation obligations be
.expressed in annuities, the minimum
oi which would be nxed and the obli
gation to pay such annuities' limited to
thirty years. Stipulation was made
that the minimum of the annuities be
fixed nccording to Germany's financial
capacities nnd, therefore, comprise nil
obligations on money and kind accord
ing to the treaty ot Versailles.
, Tliis would rolate especially to the
undertaking to pay tho expenses ot the
armies of occupation, which arc to be
covered partly- by money nnd partly in
kind, which must. In principle, be
credited according to universal market
prices.
Maximum Sum Demanded
, Request also was made that the Allies
fix: the maximum sum due for repara
tions, nftcr payment of which Ger
many would bo' free from any obliga
tions. 4 As the -economic development of the
next thirty years cannot be foretold, the
statement asserted a plan must bo
worked out by which allied govern

Recommendntion was made that each
allied and associated power create a
twofold organization for the examina
tion and reception of deliveries re
spectively. The former would be neces
sary because tho lists submitted to Ger
many contained a large number of claiint
which were subsequently settled by di
rect orders from the persons affected
and pnid by drafts op tho reparations
accounts of the Allies. The task of the
second organization would be to take
final deliveries of goods nnd assume re
sponsibility for any deficiencies.
Ait organizations concerned must be
developed on a jasls of absolute parity
between employer nnd employed, and
special mensures must bo taken to pre
vent abuses. ,
Ilxainluntion of this plan, tho state

Many of the Committee of Forty.elght
object to this title ns Indicating n class

date. His. position bos been raaao ciear
to the leaders 'of both sides- He will
take the. nomination if tho conferences
here result iu what promises to bo a
permaneut party. He is unwilling to
undergo the labors of the campaign for
a mere pnrty of protest which will idls
appear nt the end of thiiT campaign.
The test ot permanency seems to bo a
u -u between the labor element aaa
the committee of forty-eight.
LnFollctto is a powerful factor mak
ing for an agreement between the forty;
eight nnd the labor lenders. Both groups
are overwhelminglr in favor of him as
their candidate. He probably would bo
nominated bv ncclamntion in both conr
ven tons if It was certain that he would
accept- And he is using this desire for
him as a candidate to forte both sides
to como to terms.
Both groups will doubtless agree to
LnFolIette's terms nnd the plat
form will probablj be somewhat more
radical than the ten lenders In the
movement for the organization of the
committee ot forty-eight '' Jj
one knows precisely what Mr. LaFOV
lette's position Is upon the issue bc

of the forty-eight. Both sideH eJaJia
him. the leaders of the forty-eight as
Verting thnt he is less radical than the
lnbor group and the radicals Claiming
that he is willing to go further In theft
direction than George L. Record and
Amos Plnchot think expedient. rt
Labor Group Radical
The Labor party convention today in;
dicnted a tendency toward radicalism.
John , Kitximtrlck, who is the chief ad
vocate of a labor party n this country,
vent so far as to urge h s followers to
accept the example tf Russia. This
advice of Fitzpatrick's indicates the lino
It division between the labor leaders
and the leaders of the forty-eight. The
labor group here is led by men who have
mude a tight In the American Federa
tion of Lnbor agaaist Mr. Gompcrs.
Air. Gompcrs's successive advances
1 toward radicalism have granuauy
pushed his opponents into u mmuuu yi
Mnrxlan so-iallsm. To diffcrcntlato
themselves irom Gompcrs Htznntrick
aud his associates want to nominate a
ticket upon nn extremely radical, if no$
wholly socialistic, platform. They are
think ng of the interunl policies of tbe
American Federation of Labor when they
Insist that the third party being created
here shall be a much more radical party
than Mr. Pinchot. Mr. Record nnd Mr.
McCurdy wish it to bo. .....
The committee of forty-eight is in
favor of tho government ownership and
operation of rallwnys nnd other publie
utilities. It is also in fnvor of the
government owuershlp of such natural
resources ns arc the basis of mouop'
olles. The labor leaders here want
much more than this. They want tl)B
government operation, of natural re
sources, such as mines. They demand
also the government ownership of basic
indiihtrv, whatever thnt means, oud,
they ask also for the democratic con
trol of Industry, which Is another vagujj
phrnso that uicy no uui iin-viooij -

Membership More Cautious
The lenders of the two groups ar

eight. And the labor delegates ,are V
probably much less radical than their
leaders, who are thinking pf keening
several jumps ahead ot Gompcrs' iu the
direction ot radicalism. Thus Henaf
