/ William Allen White performs a
public service In the September Nc
Cgure's In telling clearly and intelli-
gently the inspiring story OF how thepre-
sident uncovered the frauds In the pos
tai department. Mr.. White not only
gives the facts concerning this great
administrative sensation, but he inter
prets their significance and analyses
both the tendencies which made these
frauds possible and the newer trend
which exposed them.
For nearly thirty years, Mr.. White
claims, the corruption of public offic-
ials has been growing steadily worse
under the fostering care of the party
system. He who exposed public offic
ers in their semi-leg alized footing has
been viewed as an enemy of his party.
But recently there has been visible
growth of moral perception in matters
political among the people
and this force may compel the
lever OF the party system to act for the
people. In the access of real moral
intelligence about their politics, In the
fixing OF the trait OF civic
honesty the people of the United States
are discovering an important junction
OF government. To bring about such
a condition means more for America
than the adjustment OF tariffs or the
establishment of any kind of currency,
argues Mr.. White. "The real inter-
est in American politics is In the NOR
al uplift in the administration of the ex-
listing laws given to the country by
President Roosevelt The most i'm
portant manifestation OF this is found
In the way he cleaned up the corrup-
tion he found in the postoffice depart
ment. That story is one which the
people have not had In as exact detail
as they should have II to realize what
manner OF man they are dealing with
10 the White House."
Mr.. White then tells that story in
sufficient detail to inform all OF the es-
sential facts, yet so concisely that the
whole miserable conspiracy Is uncover
ed almost at glance.
For years there had been crookedness
In the postoffice department, yet 60
skillfully did the graiters cover their
tracks and nrotact their interests nv
collision with congressman, senators,
editors and others, who shared the
benefits Of their loot, that no prosecu-
tion Was ever suggested. Official
Washington knew the power OF the
grafters and honored them. And never
q hint OF the conditions came to Pres
ident Roosevelt's ears until q Washing
ton newspaper made the gossip con-
