lou@suncommunitynews.com
NEW HAVEN — Eight gas pipeline protestors, out of a group approximately 50 protestors, were arrested in New Haven Sept. 13. The individuals were arrested on multiple charges which included 12 counts of unlawful trespassing and one count of resisting arrest, police told the Eagle. Arrested were Barnaby Feder, William Bennington, Lisa Barrett, June Daubner, Jason Kaye, Alice Evans, David Przepioski, and Nathan Palmer. Vermont State Police troopers and other law enforcement officials responded to the antipipeline protest which took place at 716 Hunt Rd. during daylight hours. The owner of the New Haven property called the Vermont State Police about 50 protestors trespassing on his property. The owner of the property had legally granted Vermont Gas access to his land to construct a gas line. CONTINUED ON PAGE 13

Rutland mayor ‘heavy handed’ over refugee request By Emma Lamberton elamberton@watchdog.org
RUTLAND — After months of withholding information about a refugee plan he devised in secret, Rutland Mayor Christopher Louras (D) last week tried to pressure the Board of Aldermen to release a report believed to support his solo action on resettlement. Louras called for a special emergency meeting of the Board of Aldermen. The mayor’s goal was to get the aldermen to release the results of the city attorney’s investigation into the legality of his secretive actions on refugee resettlement. “The move was heavy handed and very much unnecessary,” Board President William Notte said. “He tried to force our hand.” The mayor knowingly scheduled the emergency meeting only 15 minutes before previously scheduled committee meetings, Notte said, pressuring the board. While Notte is in favor of immediate release, he respects other board members who have not yet fully read the attorney’s 26-page document. Because City Attorney Charles Romeo was appointed by the mayor, critics have raised questions as to his report’s CONTINUED ON PAGE 15

Invasive clam found in Lake Bomoseen By Lou Varricchio lou@addison-eagle.com
MONTPELIER — According to Josh Mulhollem, a staff scientist with the Vermont, Department of Environmental Conservation, an invasive clam species has been found alive and thriving in Lake Bomoseen. Prior to its appearance in Lake Bomoseen, the alien Asian clam—also known as the golden clam—had been found only as far north as Lake George. “Asian clams, like zebra mussels, are filter feeding organisms that can deplete resources needed by native species and increase algae blooms,” according to Mulhollem. “They can also form dense populations very quickly, clogging intake pipes to lakeside homes, industrial water systems, and irrigation canals.” Mulhollem said that the clam—Corbicula flu-
minea—was discovered during the summer at the Vermont Fish & Wildlife’s Grenn Mountain Conservation Camp near Castleton. “Once positively identified, the Agency of Natural Resources then surveyed the lake to determine the extent of the population, focusing on areas with suitable habitat and likely introduction points such as boat ramps, public beaches, and the docks near the conservation camp,” Mulhollem told the Eagle. While the clam population appears to be only in the southwestern part of the lake in Castleton, the population will likely spread if left unchecked. “The area in which the species is confirmed measures approximately 14 acres, with water depths up to 8 feet,” Mulhollem noted. “No Asian clams were found at any of the other public access areas or beaches surveyed outside this area.” So how does a little clam that’s native to fresh— CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Homeland Security official visits Rutland By Lou Varricchio
lou@suncommunitynews.com
RUTLAND — It’s a big deal when a founding father and official of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security chooses Rutland for a major speaking engagement. The 14-year-long DHS member’s visit to Rutland coincides with Democrat Mayor Christopher Louras’ controversial Syrian refugee resettlement plans, now on hold by the U.S. State Department. On Sept. 13, local appearance of Philip B. Haney was an important milestone event during this election year of 2016. Haney spoke at the Fox Room at the Rutland Free Library. Haney said that, “The threat we face today, which continues growing despite the willful blindness of those who insist on pretending otherwise, is not violent extremism, terrorism, or even Jihad alone, but rather, the historical and universally recognized Islamic strategic goal of implementing Shariah law everywhere in the world, so that no other form of government, including the U.S. Constitution,is able to oppose its influence over the lives of those who must either submit to its
authority, become second-class citizens, or perish.” While in town, Haney met with Rutland First members privately to discuss the controversial plans to settle Syrian Civil War refugees in the city with little or no public input in the matter. While at the Rutland Free Library, Haney autographed copies of his bestselling non-fiction book, titled “See Something, Say Nothing”. Haney stressed one his primary concerns—that the threat of Islamic terrorism does not just come from armed organizations such as Hamas and ISIS in the Middle East, per se. “In fact, branches of the same global network have been established here in America, and they are operating in plain sight, at least to those of us who have been charged with the duty of protecting our country from threats, both foreign and domestic,” he said.

Bootleggers, Coolidge and corruption in Vermont By Lou Varricchio
lou@suncommunitynews.com
RUTLAND — Movie director Jay Craven’s ethereal 2006 independent fictional film, titled “Disappearances”—starring Kris Kristofferson, Genevieve Bujold, and William “Darryl and my other brother Darryl” Sanderson—filmed on locations in Vermont, captures the feel of the desperate, wild and woolly days of the Green Mountain State during Prohibition. Now, an engaging new book tells the true story of this strange chapter in Vermont’s history. Adam Krakowski’s new book, “Vermont Prohibition: Teetotalers, Bootleggers and Corruption” is on the shelves in local bookstores. Last week, the author was at Phoenix Books Rutland to talk about the era and how it impacted a generation here. “Vermont became the nation’s second dry state in 1853,” according to Krakowski. “But some locals refused to comply, and inept law enforcement led to ineffective consequences. What was intended to increase wholesomeness forced a newly carved detour toward crime and corruption. Early laws, such as the Liquor Law of 1853, targeted distilled spirits while conveniently protecting cider. As regulations tightened, morals loosened. Without legalized booze, smugglers imported liquor from Canada, and bootleggers ensured that domestic speakeasies kept the liquor flowing. Crime ran so rampant that Newport,
Richford and Lyndonville residents relocated to escape rumrunning gangs.” In “Vermont Prohibition...” Krakowski also discloses the strict side Vermont’s previously little known temperance movement. Vermont’s native son Calvin Coolidge was in the White House during the driest years of Prohibition. Former President Theodore Roosevelt’s often misbehaving daughter, Alice Roosevelt Longworth, was no fan of the conservative Vermonter. She once described Coolidge’s White House, as compared the previous, scandalous Harding administration, “as a New England front parlor compared to the back room of a speakeasy.” According to Kai’s Coolidge Blogsite, a history website devoted to all things Coolidge, “While no teetotaler, Coolidge had not much use for alcohol and there is every reason to believe that he remained personally dry during his years in the White House.” Coolidge plays a role in Krakowsi’s story—yes, it’s true about the story in which the teetotaling President toasted Cuban president Machado with a glass of water. Krakowski has an unusual background, at least fro someone with a vast knowledge of Vermont’s Prohibtion history. He lives Quechee, which was one of the hotbeds for bootlegging during Prohibition here, and holds a B.A. degree in art history and a M.S. degree in historic preservation from the University of Vermont. He has worked at museums, historical societies, art galleries and restoration firms all over New York and New England. One parting snapshot of the era of Prohibition is an amus-
ing Prohibition story from 1930, after Coolidge left office. Calvin and Grace Coolidge had visited “Citizen Kane” newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst‘s vast California estate, called San Simeon. “Coolidge took a drink, perhaps for the first time since prohibition went into effect. Hearst asked him whether he would prefer a cocktail or an apéritif. Coolidge said, ‘I don’t drink.’ ‘Neither do I,’ the publisher replied. ‘But I find that a sip of this wine is an excellent appetizer.’ The former president asked, ‘Is it alcoholic?’ ‘Not perceptibly,’ Hearst said. ‘The alcoholic content is slight.’ Coolidge tried a glass of Tokay, found it to his liking, and had another. Then he said brightly, ‘I must remember this.’ Left: Vermont author Adam Krakowski. Above: Views of prohibition, hooch and teetotaling Vermonter President Calvin Coolidge. Photos provided

Questions for Hillary
n late August, Judicial Watch the Washington, D.C.-based conservative, non-partisan foundation that promotes transparency, accountability and integrity in government, politics and the law, submitted a list of direct questions to presidential candidate Hillary Clinton via a U.S. District Court judge. Clinton has been under a cloud regarding a national security electronicmail scandal while serving as Secretary of State, as well as regarding the murder—in Benghazi, Lybia—of Ambassador Stevens and an alleged anti-Muslim video which was said to have sparked the deadly attack outside of the U.S. embassy in 2012. Clinton’s answers to the court-ordered questions must be made by her under oath; they are due to be delivered to U.S. District Court Judge Emmet G. Sullivan on Sept. 29. Hats off to Judge Sullivan’s courage by ordering Hillary Clinton—on behalf of Judicial Watch—to answer the questions “by no later than 30 days thereafter….” Judge Sullivan limited Judicial Watch to 25 questions in late August: “The court is persuaded that Secretary Clinton’s testimony is necessary to enable her to explain on the record the purpose for the creation and operation of the clintonemail.com system for State Department business.” We selected a few of the questions that—showing the number in which they were submitted— Clinton is now legally bound to answer after avoiding so many of them directly for months: 5. In a “60 Minutes” interview aired on July 24, 2016, you stated that it was “recommended” you use a personal e-mail account to conduct official State Department business... Who made any such recommendations, and when were any such recommendations made? 9. During your tenure as Secretary of State, did you understand that e-mail you sent or received in the course of conducting official State Department business was subject to (the) FOIA (Freedom of Information Act)? 17. In February 2011, Assistant Secretary Boswell sent you an information memo noting “a dramatic increase since January 2011 in attempts... to compromise the private home e-mail accounts of senior Department officials... “Boswell “urge[d] Depart-
20940
ment users to minimize the use of personal web e-mail for business.” Did you review Assistant Secretary Boswell’s Information Memo in or after February 2011, and, if so, why did you continue using your clintonemail.com e-mail account to conduct official State Department business?... 18. ...Why did you continue using your clintonemail.com e-mail account to conduct official State Department business after June 28, 2011, when you were advising all State Department Personnel to avoid doing so?... 23. After your lawyers completed their review of the e-mails in your clintonemail.com e-mail account in late 2014, were the electronic versions of your e-mails preserved, deleted, or destroyed? If they were deleted or destroyed, what tool or software was used to delete or destroy them, who deleted or destroyed them, and was the deletion or destruction done at your direction? According to a recent news statement by Judicial Watch’s legal team, “Clinton never testified under oath why she created and used her clintonemail. com system to conduct official government business. Her only public statements on the issue are unsworn.” Following Judge Sullivan’s Sept. 29 deadline, the Eagle will try to get Clinton’s answers and publish some of them here.

Convince me
think in this election cycle, more so than ever before in my lifetime, the nation is forced to either sit out this presidential election or invest some time to make a choice they can live with. Both candidates have significant “undesirable” qualities, according to the polls, and sadly, those negatives out weigh the positives making either a risky choice depending on your interests. Add to that a highly fragmented nationDan Alexander al media, an extremely polarized social Thoughts from media and internet environment. What we Behind the Pressline are left with is undecided or uncommitted voters who are torn with respect to how they will cast their vote come November 8th. In the past, polished political candidates representing both parties, could leave voters disappointed their candidate didn’t win, but with a feeling they could live with or at least accept the alternative to their choice. Not so this year where it’s anything but normal and the stakes are as high or higher than ever before, depending on your views. As much as anything this year, I think the Presidential Election of 2016 will come down to the National Media versus the American Public. With next week’s first 90 minute Presidential Debate set to air on Monday September 26, 2016, from Hofstra University, it seems clear the American public will be tuned into what is being described as the single largest viewing audience for any live televised/streaming event history. The voting public no longer trust the media. They have serious doubts about the political system and the mudslinging ads that lead up to election day. They will be compelled to sit, watch, listen and choose for themselves which candidate they will trust with their vote or make the choice to let others set the nation’s course for them by sitting this one out in disgust of the process. That’s a heck of a way to elected a president but it’s what we’ve done to ourselves by placing so much trust in partisanship political beliefs. We’ve allowed ourselves to be lead down this path by promises that fail to materialize from both parties. The first debate will be divided into six time segments of approximately 15 minutes each on major topics to be selected by the moderator. The moderator will open each segment with a question, after which each candidate will have two minutes to respond. Candidates will then have an opportunity to respond to each other. The moderator will use the balance of the time in the segment for a deeper discussion of the topic. This storm has been building for a long time, and like a hurricane, the weather models are no better at predicting the outcome than the political pundits have been at predicting this election. It’s now time see both candidates on display and you will decide to stay the course or break the mold. The candidates must validate themselves and convince you to be trusted with your vote.

Expanding sales tax to services Ethan Allen Institute of Vermont By Rob Roper
rob@ethanallen.org
At the Tunbridge Fair, Democrat gubernatorial candidate Sue Minter indicated in an interview with WDEV’s Mike Smith that she is in favor of expanding the Vermont state sales and use tax to services. Currently it applies only to goods, with a few exceptions. About thirty minutes into the one-woman “debate,” moderator Mike Smith of WDEV’s “Open Mike” program asked Minter about tax policy, noting that, “Governors Dean, Douglas, and Shumlin avoided raising the personal income tax, sales tax, and corporate income tax because they said it would be damaging to the economy in VT. Would you do the same?” Minter replied evasively by answering an unasked question, “I will balance the budget. I will be a good steward of the people’s money. I will look at the economic impact of every spending and raising decision.” Or, in other words, “No.” Minter does not intend to avoid raising those taxes, and given the number of costly new programs she wants to implement, one can see why. She went on to say, “We have a tax code now… that was really built around durable goods. And, now our economy – two thirds of it – is really a service sector economy…. We need to be thinking about the entire system. I’m interested in going back to the program [I think she meant “proposal”] we had after the Blue Ribbon Tax Commission that looked at what can we really do to lower rates by expanding the base. That
would be my goal.” The Blue Ribbon Tax Commission (BRTC) recommendation Minter is referring to is expanding the state sales and use tax to cover services as well as goods – everything from paying legal fees, to putting your child in daycare, to plumbing and home repair, to getting a haircut would be subject to the sales tax, and all of those businesses would have to bear the new cost and hassle of collecting, tracking, and remitting the revenue to the state. The BRTC identified in its report 168 services from a Federation of State Tax Administrators study that would be eligible for taxation and specifically mentioned the following examples: “Lawn and garden, personal transportation, residential utility, financial and insurance, misc. personal (childcare), clothing-related, other professional (legal), personal property rentals, vehicle repair/maintenance, housing and real-estate, pet-related, storage and moving, telecommunications, personal care, home cleaning/maintenance, education-related, admissions/recreation/travel, medical, residence construction/repair, and misc. repair/installation.” That’s a lot of dayto-day expenses that will all of a sudden be between 2 and 6 percent less affordable for Vermonters. Which gets us to the promise to lower the overall sales tax rate. If all services were subject to the sales tax, and the policy change was revenue neutral, the overall rate could be lowered to around 2 percent from 6 percent where it is today. However, if healthcare and educational services remain exempt, as most people think they would be, the rate only comes down to between 4.5 and 5 percent. And, Minter did not say if she were in favor of a revenue neutral sales tax shift, or one that lowered rates but still raised revenue. Expanding the sales tax to services would exacerbate Vermont’s New Hampshire problem, as our neighbor to the east has no sales tax on goods or services. Lowering Vermont’s sales tax from 6 percent to 5 or even 4 percent would not prevent shoppers from crossing the Connecticut river for savings on goods, and expanding the tax would just encourage the same kind of border jumping regarding services. >> Story Continued | pg. 5

An organic garden of delights in the wilderness By Lou Varricchio

RIPTON — High in the mixed-forest foothills of the Green Mountains, near Broadloaf Mountain in Ripton, is a unique, compact organic farming operation that demonstrates the idea that bountiful harvests can be reaped on small tracts. “Nola’s Secret Garden”, an organic produce operation, is located near the Broadleaf Wilderness area. It is an islet of sunlight, surrounded by dense woodlands over 1,000 feet above sea level. Owner, grower Nola Kevra was inspired to become an organic gardener by studying under her Middle Eastern grandfather’s watchful eye. She enjoys a quiet life, with her husband Mark and Orion the dog, in a small, rustic Vermont farmhouse built in the 1970s. The house dates to the dawn of the modern organic farming movement, pioneered by Pennsylvania gardener, publisher, and author, J.I. Rodale. “My immigrant Lebanese-Christian grandfather was a farmer in New Jersey,” Kevra told the Eagle. “He was a content man and led a simple, wonderful life.” Kevra began gardening herself at a young age; the skill of working the land evolved with her own organic operation which now helps feed many health-conscious Vermont residents. “It’s a lot of work,” she said, “but rewarding for the soul.” Last week, senior members of Project Independence in Addison County made their first

Next to the annual Addison County Fair and Field Days, the only other annual events that gets the farming community together are the two Bourdeau Brothers’ events held at the agribusiness at 88 Seymour St. in Middlebury. The farm-related events are held in February and September every year. Bourdeau Brothers of Middlebury’s customers extend from New Hampshire to New York. Jim Bushey founded Bourdeau and Bushey, Inc.—now Bourdeau Brothers of Middlebury—with Germain and Remi Bourdeau, in 1982. Customers, friends and special guests
Paul Wagner of Wagner Farm in Bridport arrived in his classic Dodge D-200 pickup truck. He bought the truck locally when it was brand new—in 1957.
stopped by and enjoyed the chicken lunch as well as vendors and informative, informal talks about pesticide safety, corn herbicides, and lots of other good stuff important to local farmers. Among the various vendors with display booths set up under the big tent on Seymour Street was Neil Andrew of Zinpro, a family owned Minnesotabased producer of organic trace miner-

als used to improve animal wellness and performance. Andrew is account manager of Zinpro’s regional office in Chazy, N.Y. He was at the Bourdeau ag event to demonstrate a safe, livestock nutritional feed product called Availa Plus. The feed additive is an amino acid complex and helps improve foot health. “Improving trace mineral nutrition within a well-fortified diet has been shown to help cattle build stronger skin integrity and a more empowered immune system from the inside out,” he said. “The bacteria that are thought to cause digital dermatitis have the ability to penetrate into deeper layers of the skin, so building a more resilient barrier against the bacteria is key to preventing the disease from taking hold.” “We work with many organizations in agricultural production and management,” according to Bourdeau Brothers’ Skip Cray. A veteran in the agribusiness community, Cray has been with the company for 21 years. “These range from suppliers for seeds, crop protection, and animal nutrition to organizations that provides soil and forage analysis to help with feed and nutrient management plans, insurers, and financial services to agricultural producers.”

Clams
Continued from page 1 water regions of Asia, southeast Asia and Africa end up in Lake Bomoseen? According to Mulhollem, like so many invasive species of plants an animals, they are unwanted hitchhikers. The species has spread throughout much of the eastern U.S., and several populations have recently been observed in western lakes, too. It is unclear how or when the species was introduced to Lake Bomoseen, or exactly where the initial introduction occurred. Mulhollem said that large, adult clams—up to 2.4 centimeters (nearly one inch) in diameter—and the relatively high

density of clams in Lake Bomoseen indicate that the clams have likely been in the lake for more than a year. Perhaps the only upside to Lake Bomoseen being the new home for Corbicula fluminea is the fact that the Asian clam is edible. Also, a Japanese research team discovered that the freshwater clam’s extract—known simply as FCE—appears to help improve the metabolism of laboratory rats with high cholesterol.

Protesters
Continued from page 1 The protesters unlawfully entered the Hunt Road property in an attempt to surround the excavating equipment and stop work. The property owner told troopers that the protestors were “interfering with a roadway Vermont Gas agreed to build which would allow his cattle access to their feed due to the construction.” The property owner told troopers that he wanted the trespassers removed from his posted property. VSP troopers arrived on the protest site and informed protestors that the landowner wanted them to vacate the site. The protestors were given 30 minutes to leave. Police told the Eagle that 12 of the approximately 50 protestors decided to remain on the site be-

yond the 30-minute warning time; they were arrested for unlawful trespassing. One protestor, Nathan Palmer, was also charged with resisting arrest. He had stopped walking and sat on the ground while police escorted from the property. According to police, the protestors delayed the construction project for approximately three and one half hours. Members of Vermont Fish & Game and the Addison County Sheriff ’s Office assisted the state police in the arrests. Eight gas pipeline protestors, out of a group approximately 50 protestors, were arrested in New Haven Sept. 13 on multiple charges which included 12 counts of unlawful trespassing and one count of resisting arrest.

Rutland refugees
gees coming to the area in the first year. Except for the board president, the aldermen were not aware of the mayor’s plan, which lawmakers and citizens have questioned as unethical, if not illegal. While the board has been critical of Louras’ methods, the aldermen in July declined to allow the public to vote on refugee resettlement in a special election, despite citizens having submitted enough signatures from voters in a petition. Instead, the board sent a letter to the federal government saying they do not approve of refugee resettlement due to lack of information. A new letter challenging the mayor’s authority to represent the city to the U.S. Department of State will be discussed at Monday’s meeting, with the potential to finalize the draft. If the Community and Economic Development Committee approves the draft, it will go the full board for a vote. The city charter states that the Board of Aldermen is the governing body while the mayor is the chief executive officer. The State Department is expected soon to announce its decision on whether or not Rutland will become a resettlement hub. If approved, up to 100 Syrian and Iraqi refugees will settle in Rutland, with the potential for additional refugees in following years.
Continued from page 1 objectivity. However, Notte explained that the attorney works for the Board. “If there were ever a lawsuit between the two offices, the city attorney would represent the Board of Aldermen, not the mayor.” Alderman Scott Tommola said the mayor’s pressure to release the report is likely in response to accusations from the Board about his own transparency. “It was the mayor trying to prove a point. It’s not the track I would have taken.” While the Board denied the mayor’s request for immediate public release, Tommola said members expect to release the report soon. “I don’t know of a single board member who doesn’t was this to be released. I’m for transparency in government.” The report could become public as soon as Monday, at the board’s regularly scheduled meeting. However, there is still some debate regarding the report’s completeness, said Tommola, citing concerns from Alderman Edward Larson. “Although the city attorney thought he had completed the matter, it is still open until the Board of Alderman … votes (to) release the report of findings,” said Larson. Larson said an executive session may be necessary to have specific questions answered by board members. “Addressing these concerns is important so that when the findings are released the air will be cleared of potential misconceptions or speculative reporting,” he said.

Rutland Mayor Chris Louras didn’t want anyone to know about his plans to make Rutland a permanent resettlement community, but now he’s pressuring the Board of Aldermen to release information that may defend his decision to act as the city’s sole representative.
In April, Mayor Louras announced a plan to make Rutland a refugee resettlement center with the target goal of 100 refu-
