CASH FOR POSTAL MEN
Hitchcock Names Commission
to Test Inventions They
Have Submitted. 4

A special commission was created by
Postmaster General Hitchcock today to
consider the merits of mechanical and
labor-saving devices invented by postal
employees and submitted by them for use
In the postal service. On the recon-
mendation Of the Postmaster General
$4,000 was appropriated by the recent
Congress, which he is authorized to pay
in his discretion as rewards to postal en-
pioyes whose inventions are adopted for
use in the postal service.
The following officers OF the department
will compose the commission: Robert S.
Sharp. chief post Office Inspector. chair
man; c. +. Trotter. assistant superin-
tendent of the division of salaries and al
lOwances: b. l.. Andrus, superintendent
of the mail lock shop: c. III. Buckler,
superintendent of the division of regis
tered mails; w. j. Satterfield, chief clerk
of the bureau of the fourth assistant
postmaster general, and A. l.. Davis.
assistant director of the postal savings
system.
Will Make Tests.
This commission after investigating and
making appropriate tests will make a. re-
port to the Postmaster General with suit
able recommendations as to the accept
ance Of devices and the payment OF re-
wards to postal employees whose inven-
lions are adopted for use in the postal
service. Mr.. Hitchcock is OF the opinion
that the Offering of such rewards will be
an incentive for ingenious men of the
postal service to take a greater interest
in their work and encourage them to In
vent devices Of various kinds which will
improve the equipment and expedite the
OF the mail.
In addition to the Postmaster Generals
special recommendation to the receipt
Congress on the subject he advocated the
adoption of the reward system in his laAt
two annual reports. 1t is believed by MI.
Hitchcock that the idea will prove so SUI
cessful that Congress will feel justified IN
the appropriation.

cess of nearly $2OOGO0O in receipts over
expenditures in September Of last year. a
difference due, in part, at least, to be-
lated appropriation legislation.

SANTA FE MAY MOVE
DIVISION OFFICES HERE
Option Has Been Taken By Rail.
road on One Of Cuthrie's
Largest Buildings

Several local capitalists, as repre-
sentatives of outside monied men,
have been quietly securing options
on desirable business locations in
this city, the general impression
having gone out that Guthrie is on
the eve of expansion.
A prominent local railroad man
salu this morning: when the plans
now under way by the Santa Fe
railroad are matured, which will be
in the near future, one of the larg-
est buildings here will be purchased
and converted into the offices made
necessary for officials who Will
move to this place. An option has
already been secured, but the deal
for the building is held up pending
the termination OF lease held by
local parties. AS soon as this
lease expires the papers Will be
made out, and the work of remodel
ing begun.
Another I'oposed Improvement,
and one of the most neeued, is the
erection of another modern office
building This deal is the work of
one of the best known business
men of this city, and the site has
already been secured. The build
ing will be four stories, with base
ment. and devoted exclusively to
offices. The whole will be modern,
and ,he site chosen is convenient
TO the purposes to which the build
ing is to be devoted.
Another deal now in course of
consummation is the converting of
two story brick on Oklahoma
avenue. into four story building
with elevator, and all modern i'm
provements. Mercantile ostabl,sht
ments will use the lower stories,
while the other two stories will be
finished for office and rooming pur-
poses.
Other improvements contingent
on the future, but almost certain,
and in sight. Guthrie has been OF
slow but steady growth, healthy at
all times, and there is need of the
promised expansion. No city in
Oklahoma is on so solida financial
foundation as Guthrie. This is
abundantly evidenced by the excel
lent manner in which the city has
stood the past three years OF par.
tial crop failure, and the incidental
loss of business that always follows.
There has been no failures here,
and while the docket OF the United
States district court here is filed
with bankruptcy suits from cities
where the hard times caught their
boom in the middle, Guthrie has
never had bankruptcy suit filed
by any of her business men.
The coming year for Guthrie is
certain to be a great one. Already /
