experienced with the Calvert Company's
clothes at that time prompted him 20

ENGRAVING BUREAU
COSTS $4,375,565.57
Director Ralph Makes Pub
lie Figures for Year.

More than SsOc0.OOO sheets of postage
stamps, delivered to postmasters through
out the country, represents but a small
part of the work completed by the Blu
reau of Engraving and Printing during
the year ended June 50. according TO the
report just issued by Director Ralph.
Other odd jobs completed at the bu-
reau. the report shows. were the en-
craving and printing Of 5S,s0s,Ooo sheets
of Treasury notes and certificates. 5000
sheets of registered bonds, 1851 $50
sheets Of national bank notes. and other
official matter. totaling 252,7l0S64 sheets.
The work was done al a cost of A375,-
1851. leaving a balance of Sl66. 727.l2 from
the original appropriation and reimburse
ments from other departments.
Change Is Recommended.
In the report Director Ralph makes
the following recommendation for a
change in the present schedule of
leaves OF absence for the employees OF
the bureau:
The matter of leaves of absence of
employees Is one of the annoying prob
lens of administration in an institution
employing nearly 1900 persons, and can
only be governed by the system now in
operation which provides as far as pos
sible for the appOrtionment of leaves to
certain number of employees each day
throughout the year in order that each
employee shall have the thirty days al
lowed by law without embarrassment TO
the work
Greater Charge Required.
Notwithstanding this system. how
ever, it is impossible. owing to condi-
lions that cannot be avoided. such as
illness. deaths, or pressure of work in
the bureau. to strictly apply the rules.
with the result that as the department
regulations require that leaves of abb
sence shall be granted during the calen-
dar year. and tire calendar year includes
one-half of each of two fiscal years, It is
impracticable TO exactly divide the leave
between the two fiscal years. and If the
employees should take a preponderance OF
leave in one calendar year in the last
half of the year. and in the next calen-
dar year take the greater part in the
first half the appropriation for the fiscal
year involved in these two years would
be required TO bear a charge for leaves
greater than intended. To correct this
condition recommend therefore that
! leaves Of absence in this bureau be based
on the fiscal year instead of on the cal
endar year"

The PRESIDENT AND THE POS
TAI SAVINGS BANK BILL.

President Taft apparently has had
backbone stiffened up bit by the re-
tarr Of Mr.. Roosevelt. Having can
celled an engagement to attend the
Yale finals, the President IL osten-
tatiously fiourishing 3 big stick anu
declaring that he proposes to stay IN
Washington al summer. II necessary
to see that the senate passes potai
savings bank bill that suits him. me
President fsyors the measure adopt
ed by the house, and Is int'mating
thar the senate viii be guilty OF vio-
latine its promises If II fails to put
the law through just as II came from
the house. Fortunately for the coun-
try, we baieve. the President secured
LIS nxcmisas from the regular kepao-
lican leaders OF the senate, aud failed
to take into account the insurgents
and the Democrats.
Insurgents and Democrats have
lined up 10 insist upon radical changes
In the house bill, and In spite OF ina
power Of the regular Republicans IN
the upper house the indications are
that Mr.. Taft is likely TO have to
make good his terrible threat.
Under the bill passed by the house
30 per cent of the postal savings de-
posts would be withdrawn immediate
ly for investment in United States
government bonds. The law requires
that 60 per cent of the deposits shan
be redeposited in Local banks. but
when--in the cpinicn of the President.
~the general welfare and interests OF
the United State so require" the 65 per
cent Of the deposits may be with
drawn for Investment in government
bonds of securities. In other words,
so per cent CT the saving of people IN
all parts of the country who would
deposi; at the postoffices would be
Withdrawn from the communities in
which the money was made Tor the
use OF the government. and n the
President shonld see fit. practically
the whole Of the money so deposited
would be tsken IRON local circulation.
The postal savings bank scheme,
one OF the pets OF rsternahsm. is bad
enough al best However. II proper
~ safeguarded. il might result in no
great harm, and in eli probability II
would draw into use great deal OF
money that Is now hcrded away by
people who are afraid to trust the
banks. But II the people are to get
the benefit OF this money. the law
must require the government 20 keep
. large proportion Of the deposits in
fhc banks Of the local communities.
We trust that the President vii
stay In washington the rest OF his
