POSTMASTER GENERAL BURLEsoN.
100000 people are now receiving the!l
mail at their doors instead of at re
mote postofices.
"In pursuance Of the policy Of expe
diting the delivery of mail the postmas
ter general has ordered the discontinu
ance Of the back stamping of all ordi
nary mail which heretofore has delayed
Its delivery anywhere from twenty
minutes to one-half hour. An investi
CATION of the conditions shows that tn.
slight benefits from back stamping
were far outweighed by the advantage
that would be gained to the public by
Its discontinuance and hence the
prompt forward step by the depart
ment. =
'"The parcel post regulations have
been modified so as to permit the de
livery to the addressee, without Ad
ditional charge, of matter reaching the
office Of address with improper stamps
affixed.
"By an arrangement made with the
Canadian postal service the rates OF
postage on Sunday editions Of daily
newspapers mailed to subscribers In
Canada, who also are subscribers t
the week day editions, has been fixed
at / cent a pound or fraction thereof
instead OF at 4 cent for four ounces Of
FRACTION, as formerly.
MANY OF the changes which Post
master General Burleson has put into
effect have to do largely with the in
ternal workings of the department
but their effect win be felt throughout
the entire service.
"a number of experienced officers OF
the department are now employed II

vew to recommending remedies wher
ever defects In methods may be dis
covered.
at is Postmaster General Burleson's
desire and earnest endeavor to estab
lish In the interest of economy and
efficiency uniform methods and prac
ices throughout the entire service
aud to direct postmasters to the best
way OF administering the postal facih

today were considering the advisibility
of prohibiting a great public funeral

honor Of the dead woman. the women
said they were planning for he biggest
funeral that London ever saw. not even

sfve object lesson Great Britain has had
for q generation, bringing home to every
man and woman In the United Kingdom
the realization that the women's battle
for the ballot is a real revolution aud
not opera and story-book warfare
1t Is this spirit evinced by the women
that caused Scotland Yard to propose
connection with Miss Dayison's obse-
quies. The militants wrought up to a
high pitch some of them almost hysteri-
cal are considered by the government to
be ready for anything. The fnal de-
cfsion lies with Home Secretary Nc
Kenna.
In striking contrast to the apathy Of
the women's Social and Political Union

attitude OF the militants today. Then
they did not know Emily Wflding Da-
vtson. They had never heard Of her
