With the coming Of the New Year,
the Uaited States government will en-.
ter into a new field of enterprise-the
transmittal of merchandise by what
Is known as the parcel post For years
there has been demand for such a
system OF inexpensive transmittal OF
packages. The camps of favor and
disfavor of the parcel post scheme
have been about equally divided. FL
nally at the last session of congress q
bill was passed which will put the
plan in operation, but only it must
be said in little more than an exoeri.
mental way.
1t Is the intention of Uncle Sam to
move rather slowly in the parcel post
matter. He wants to find out how pop
lar It Will be. how much 1t will cost
the government, and whether there is
to be a profit or loss at the end OF
each year. II 1t Is found that the plan
is successful from the poiat of view
of the people, which means the gov.
ernment also, the parcel post will be
extended until finally It reaches the
proportions which it's proponents say
they believe 1t Is destined to assume.

United States Senator John Kern ar

remember when preparing verdicts
that most of the defendants came
from distant parts of the country. =
"They are plain working men," said
Kern, some of them are uneducated

hundreds OF miles away and made to

language at them. ls'it any wonder
thai some of them became confused

"You jurors can't convict these
men of crimes of which they are not
charged. You can't convict them Of
causing explosions, but only with car

the government, and without re:nem-
bering the evidence you brign back
yerdicts finding these 40 men guilty,
it would be anarchy Of the worst
