Mr.. GANNETT SPEAKS
ON PHILIPPINE LIFE

Henry Gannett, of the United States
Geological Survey, delivered an address
on THE Peoples OF the Philippines be-
fore the National Geographic Society last
night in the National Rifles Armory.
Mr. Gannett declared the idea untrue
that beyond Manila and the outlying
garrisons II is dangerous for a white
man TO travel. The natives, on the con-
trary. feel honored when a white man
seeks a nights lodging With them, and
everywhere throughout the islands the
white man is well treated. One of the
great difficulties in the islands is to
obtain suitable food. The fruits cannot
compare with those Of the United States
Ihe vegetable market, in the meaning Of
the term in this country, does not exist
there, while the meats are brought in
cold storage from Australia and New
Zealand. The natives live mostly on fish

POSTOFFICE REDUCTION
IS STRANGELY OPPOSED
Suburban Residents in Several States
Bitterly Resent Purposed Action
of Department.

The POstOfice Department is encoun-
tering many Obstacles in It's policy OF
reducing postoeices from the second to
the third grade, where it is determined
by inspectors that the receipts have
been abnormatIy enlarged by the pur-
chase OF stamps by business men for
consumption in other places.
A half dozen such cases are being in
vestigated in Massachusetts,. while 9TH
ers have been reported from Missouri
and Nebraska. In Massachusetts a stiff
opposition has been set up by business
men. who insist on their right TO pur-
chase stamps wherever they like. A
man using 81. 900 worth Of stamps week
for his business in Boston can increase
the receipts OF the postoffice IN the
suburban village where he lives $4,000 a
year
Under these circumstances there Is a
grave question involved as 70 how far
the officials oaa justihably so. u is
naturally the desire of residents OF
small towns 10 gain the benefits OF free
delivery by obtaining a second class
postofice.
In reducing the. grade Of the small
Offices. First Assistant Postmaster Cen
eral Wynne has acted on the report OF
inspectors. which show that the increase
of receipts AT smaller Offices has been
al the expense OF larger Offices. where
the purchases should riehtfully be made.
IN one or two cases the postmasters
have connived to increase the sales.
while in others the postnnasters were
blameless. In, Massachusetts the mat

GEN. BLISS UPBRAIDS
OFFICERS OF THE ARMY
He Declares Efficiency Is Destroyed by
the General Indifference to Study
Of War Problems.

Army officers-yVest Pointers. as well
as men who enter the service from civil
life-are upbra.ded for their indiffer-
ence to study by Brig. Gen Tasker II.
Bliss in his annual report as president
of the Army War College.
It is OF great Importance, in General
Bliss opinion, that the Army War CO..
lege should devote itself to the study OF
military problems which the United
States would actually face in case OF
war.
The necessity for post schools is en-
phasized by General Bliss. He declares
the success Of the German army to be
due to the persistency with which the
German officers conduct their studies OF
military subjects. In discussing post
schools, General Bliss says:
mo one. whether from West Point or
elsewhere. should be excused from any
work on the assumption that he already
knows. A good many of the things even
now outlined in the post school course
the West Pointer is not likely to know
so well as the man promoted from the
ranks
There is, or. at least. ia years past
there has been. an unfortunate tendency
on the part of officers. whether from
West Point or elsewhere. gradually TO
lose the habit OF study Except as con-
nected with the simple routine of their
work.. and with It not only a failing 70

necessary TO keep them abreast Of their
profession, but actually 70 lose much OF
