Editor The Washington Herald:
We are told that history repeats itself,

to be true. The Bible tells US that some
centuries ago there was a eunuch,
man of Ethiopia, who went 10 Jerusalem
to worship, &c. &c. The Ethiopian in
question could read, bu: he couldn't un-
derstand what he was reading. So TO

In your issue Of this date il is OBJ

fully at the White House he should not
be singled out and given a position in
the regular army. A few years ago a
messenger employed there was placed on
the retired list as captain. He Is now a
major, receiving pay as such. and also
additional pay as a messenger in the
civil service. There are numerous cases
where officers on the retired list are en-
ployed in the departments as clerks. and
this to the exclusion of others who are
entitled to consideration.

Editor The Washington Herald;
Years ago the vast deposits in the
