POSTOFFICE SERVICE

common courtsey in the ordinary dis
charge of official business"
THAT the postoffice lobby is kept in
a filthy and unsanitary condition,
which ought to be condemned by the
health officers"
The reason why no better care Of the
public interests is exercised is because
the public cannot reach, directly or in
directly these negligent and unfaith-
full employees. Even the government
cannot reach them, as they are protect
ed by civil service rule, SO complicated
that it is almost impossible to success
fully achieve the discharge of the in
competent. We recall the case of the
negro in the Selma postoffice, who was
actually a mail thief, yet he was rein
stated over the protest of the postmis
tress. If we had more of this govern
ment service we would have more o
the same sort of bad service; and the
bigger the machine the more difficult
it would be to control.
