ed from the Office Of the Third Assist
ant Postmaster Gc~eral a table of

der of readjustment and enlargement

livery in the first and second zones

from II to 20 pounds.
Dockcry Cites Advantages.
In an accompanying circular let
ter Assistant Postmaster General
Dockery says:
"At the same time you should
point out the advantage Of the parcel
post system as a cheap, expeditions
and efficient means for the transpor-
tation Of parcels Of merchandise,
farm and factory products and mis-
cellaneous articles, inviting attention
to the insurance and G.. o. ID. fea-
lures, particularly the low insurance
fees. You should also emphasize the
necessity for properly prep airing arti-
cles for mailing in order that they
may be easily examined and with
stand the handling to which they
are subjected in transit and deliv-
cry and reach their destination in
good condition.
"In order that the parcel post sys-
TEN may reach its full measure of
usefulness it Is necessary that the
public become familiar with it's many
advantages and the rates of postage
and conditions governing the prepa-
ration, weight and size of fourth
class mail Your earnest co-opera-
tion in accomplishing this end is,
therefore, desired.
''No change has been made with
respect to the limit of size Of fourth
class mail. Parcels of such matter
greater in size than 70 inches in
length and girth combined shall not
be accepted for mailing.
''The usefulness of parcel post
maps and guides furnished postmas-
ters and the public is not affected by
the new rates"

Mr.. DIZER REPLIES
TO Mr.. ANDREWS
Editor THE EVENING JOURNAL.

Editor THE EVENING JOURNAL.
Sir: In your issue of today you
publish letter from A. n. Andrews
criticising my defense Of the whip
ping post. ] agree with Mr.. Andrews
that this punishment should be ad-
ministered to other classes also. but
] do not think the Post should be
abolished so long as it keeps out OF
our State at least a few classes of
criminals.
Ali whippings are open to the pub
lie and never before heard OF pri-
vate whippings at the post The law
provides that the officer who wields
the lash shall not bend the elbow
when whipping a criminal.
The burglar who robs bank from
the outside commits state offense
and our State Courts have jurisdiction
in his case while the cashier who
loots the bank from the inside com
mits a government offense and the
National Government prosecutes his
case. That the Governmen does not
whip him is no fault OF the people
Of our State and is no proof that the
State is not benefited by that law
Besides the burglar who breaks a
bank is the same class Of criminal
Evening journal., 1913-12-12

that will break into your home armed
to the teeth prepared to kill If ap-
pretended. He goes to the bank only
because it Is bigger game
This talk about loss Of self-respect
at the post seems bosh. Self-respect
is thrown to the wind when one COM
mits any Of the crimes for which whip
ping Is a penalty. 7 do not condone
the misdeeds of any of those classes
TO which Mr.. Andrews refers, but I
believe We should keep the post as
long as IL continues to keep the per-
ceutage of certain classes OF Grim
inals low IN Delaware as compared
to other places.
am surprised that Mr.. Andrews
quotes The Nazarene, as while dis
cussing with me the merits Of a cer-
tain public man Mr. Andrews said
that mans Identification with religion
has caused him (Mr. Andrews) TO holo
him under suspicion. Does Mr.. An
drews really believe in The Nazarene
and his teachings?
