OLD HIGH COST
RAPED AGAIN
Good Housewives and Home
Scales Are Panacea for
Many Economic Ills.
Observation-Disclosures
Mrs. Julian Heath Makes Address at
Meeting Of Housekeepers'
Alliance.
Observation-Disclosures

American housewives and false scales
were declared yesterday to be largely
| responsible for the present high cost OF
living by Mrs. Julian Heath, president
Of the National Housewives League, at
meeting held in the rooms Of the
Chamber of Commerce under the auspices
of the Washington Housekeepers AL
lance. Mrs. Heath's address gave i'm
petus to the movement being made by
the housewives Of the District to reduce
the cost Of living and to improve sani-
tary conditions under which foodstuffs
are sold.
Housekeeping. said Mrs, Heath. lis
profession. Comparatively few women
realize this and pride themselves In 1t.
Injudicious expenditure Of money and
lack OF knowledge OF market prices have
more to do with the present high cost
Of living than the protective tariff or
any one other economic condition.
The. practical solution Of the high cost
of living lies with the housewife. 1t is
an undisputed fact that three-fourths Of
the women OF the middle class and nine
tenths OF the women of the lower class
do the marketing. They are the man
ayers of the home, they must make a
dollar go as far as possible. To do
this they must know the value of a dol
lar and have a thorough knowledge of
prevailing prices
Markets Here Well Kept.
1T is not SUFFICIENT for a woman to
be shrewd manager: she must protect
herself against dishonest dealers. false
weights are an important factor in the
high cost OF living
Mrs. Heath paid a compliment to the
sanitary condition Of the stores and mar
kets in Washington She declared the
sanitary conditions to be better here
than in any other city She emphasized
the importance Of organisation in the
war upon high prices and upon false
weights.
THE individual protest of one house.
keeper to her groceryman concerning
cleanliness will have, no effect. but IL all
the women Of the neighborhood make a
united protest a change for the better
Is sure to follow. Likewise the protest
Of the women in any one city will not
have national effect, but IL all the
women of the country should be brought
into a close organization many things
could be accomplished
The primary object of Mrs. Heath's
visit to Washington is for the purpose
of organizing a branch Of the National
Housewives League in this. city, and II
is probable that the members of the
Housekeepers Alliance may affiliate with
the national organization.

REDFIELD SUGGESTS
EXTRA HALF HOLIDAYS
Secretary Of Commerce Suggests Only
Part Work on Saturday During
Five Months.

Saturday half holidays during five
months instead OF during three for de-
partment clerks in Washington look
probable. in view of letter written by
Secretary of Commerce Redfeld yester-
day to the heads Of other executive de-
partments asking them if they did not
agree with him in favoring such a
change.
Secretary Redfield's letter, following a
recent announcement by President Will
son that the Chief Executive favors Sat
urday half holidays. is expected to in
duce the other Secretaries to make SINH
lar announcements. That Secretary
Redfield will give half holidays on Sat-
urdays to employees in his own depart
ment through the five months is practi-
cally assured.
Secretary of Commerce Redfeld be-
Heves that his Department OF Commerce
should close on Saturdays at 1 o'clock
during May. June. July, August, and
September. In his opinion, this arrange
ment will not interfere with the prompt
disposition of the regular work Of the
department. and will give the clerks a
privilege enjoyed by many large business
concerns throughout the country.

THIRD ASSISTANT Will
HAVE POSTAL SAVINGS
MANY EMPLOYEES ARE AFFECTED

Postmaster General Burleson last night
signed an order transferring the Postal
Savings System to the Bureau Of the
Third Assistant Postmaster General The
order becomes effective on May I. 1913.
Since the creation Of the Postal Savings
System on January I, 1911, 1t has been
conducted as a separate and distinct
bureau under the direction Of the Post
master General. The transfer Of the
system is deemed advisable by the Post
master General since all other financial
functions of the Postal Service are seq
regated in the Bureau Of the Third As
sistant Postmaster General.
At the present time the Postal Savings
System is operating in approximately H.
900 postofiices, and the amount on deposit
aggregates $35.000000 exclusive Of $780,
900 which has been converted into Postal
Savings System bonds. In the GEN.
trail ONCE at Washington there are 1873
employees. including the director, assist
ant director and four other supervisory
officers.
The appropriation for carrying on the
business Of the system for 1912 amounted
to 100000 and the appropriation for 1918
is 500. 900. and the unexpended amount
of the 1912 appropriation. In addition to
these appropriations there is an appro-
pIidlioH VI $<<9''o ior clerk nTe anu
N05,5Oe for supplies and miscellaneous
expenses for 1914.
In making this transfer the Postmas-
ter General does so on the advice and
Of Third Assistant Post
master General Dockery, who gives his
reasons for the transfer at length. Since
the bureau of the Third Assistant Post
master General handles more than 8. Co.,
0o0, 900 annually in postal revenues, includ-
ing domestic and foreign money orders,
1t is believed that this postal banking
system should be segregated in that bu-
reau.

PERSISTENCE FINALLY WINS.
Virginia Couple, Refused Marriage

A chapter of difficulties was encounter
ed by Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Powell. of
New Garden, Albemarle County, Va,

They came to the Capital as Walter
Powell and Carrie Edith Adams after
most discouraging experiences in Rock
vile.
Miss Adams made too youthful an ap-
pearance, although insisting she was born
in 1894
In Washington better fortune awaited
the clippers in the matter of securing
license, but the first minister ap-
preached took the same view of things
as the Rockville officials and declined
to perform the ceremony.
Judge c. S. Bundy. Of the Municipal
Court. was finally appealed to. After
satisfying himself that Miss Adams was
of the required age he performed the
ceremony.
