Of newly appointed assistants, having
less than three months experience

Notwithstanding these great ex-

to have been exhausting their time

from the record made by the devoted
public servants they succeeded.
THE postal committee of Demo-

last year TO attack the audited ac-
counts of the postal service, but after
investigation was fair enough to ad-
NIT that the department had become
substantially self-sustaining. The re-
turns as to surplus or deficit are
made UP by the treasury department

ported the wiping out of the postal
