UNCLE SANS UNEARNED INCOME.

Recently the assistant treasurer of
the United States at New York city has
turned into the p~ostofice department
fund the sun of s1,3OO,OOO which has
been accommodating in the sub-treasury
during the last thirty years from the
funds paid to the money order post
Offices for remittances which have never
been claimed. Old money-orders are
presented at the postofice department
almost every day, but the amount Of the
unpaid m~oney-order fund increases con-
stantly, and there is no likelihood that
any part of the S1,300,000 will be claimed
by its owners. In fact, every year from
$4,000 to 100000 is added to the fund,
which represents carelessness or neglect.
This is only M source of unearned
income which the government has. The
postofice department furnishes another
in the stamps which are destroyed from
year to year without cancellation or are
bought by collectors.
The value of a stamp is represented in
the service which it will never be called
upon to perform. So common a source
of income is the sale of stamps to col.
lectors that it is said that some small
governments have issued stamps in
tended mainly as a source of income
Many Central American republics issue
stamps of new design every year. The
republic of Liberia, it is said, issues
stamps more for an income to be derived
from sales to stamp-collectors than for
postal purposes.
The treasury department. has a large
source of income in the issue of bonds
and bank notes. There is no doubt
that Of the $50, 100000 worth of bonds
just issued some proportion will never
be presented. There is more than a mil
lion dollars in the treasury today due to
holders of government bonds. There
are millions of dollars of United States
notes marked on the treasury's books
as not redeemed which will never
be presented. Most of this money has
been destroyed. Occasionally some of it
appears and is presented for redemption,
but each year the fund grows larger.
AS to the amount represented in I'M
paid claims or supplies that Is something
which could hardly be computed. 1t
often takes the lifetime of not only the
claimants, but the generation coming
after him to reach a settlement with the
d~ilatory congress.
