senator Bourne Says such Legiaia-
tIon Would Anect Parcel Post.
Senator Jonathan Bourne, IT., chairman
of the Post-offce Committee, has re-
ceived a flood of letters advocating l-cent
letter postage which contain statement
that such a reduction would not interfere
in any. way with the parcel post The
Senator takes exception to this statement,
and, in speaking Of the matter yesterday,
he said:
"The highest aim Of the postal service
of any nation should be to give, in all
its various branches, the maximum sery-
ice possible at rates SO low as not to
prove burdensonAe TO any citizen or to
any class OF society. The various postal
activities are so correlated and inter-
woven, however, that it is not possible
to make a change in any one of them
without some reactive effect on all those
which remain, especially II the service is
to be approximately or quite self-sustain-
ing"

1t is probable that the GaIlinger uni

the Senate. will be favorabIy reported

ARMY, COLLECTIVELY, IS BAD.
MAI. shelton Attacks Present sys-
TEN Of sIanasemenf.


Declaring that the United States army
is individually efficient and collectively
worthless, Maj George II. Shelton, Of
the Bureau OF Insular Affairs. appeared
yesterday before the House Committee
on Expenditures in the War Department
to discuss the present plan OF army
organization. Mai. Shelton insisted that
the army should be made compact and
available through speedy mobilization
for an emergency of war.
'aThe troops should be located In towns
and cities" he said. 'This would put a
stop to desertiens due TO the monotony
OF army life in small remote posts. Just
because a man is soldier he should
not be cut of from ail contact with his
feIlow-men. This system OF isolation Is
contrary to that followed in every other
country in the world. IT results in ex-
travagance, expense. and unavailability
Of men when needed"
