HITCHCOCK IS CRITICISED
Former Postmaster General In His Re-
porta Asserted Service Was Self
Supporting In 1911, but investigators
Declare Deficiency of $4,000 Elk.
listed In That Year.

Washington, June 2.-Postmaster
General Burleson has made public
the report of a special Investigation
into fiscal affairs of the postal serv-
ice, charging that during former Post
master General Hitchcock's admins
tration the service did not become
self-supporting, as was asserted, but
that in 1911 there actually was a de-
ficiency of more than $4,000.
The report charges that IAN appar-
ent surplus was attained by uniustl-
fable methods of bookkeeping" and
that the efficiency and morale of the
postal service were sacrificed to a
"ruthlessly enforced policy of false
economy" that a showing OF self-main-
tenance might be made.
Mr.. Hitchcock, during his admins
tration and in his reports, claimed
that in the year 1909 a deficiency of
approximately s17,500. 900 had entire
ly been eliminated and that in the
fiscal year 1911 a surplus of more
than 5000, 900 was attained.
The report Of the survey" saws
that at no time has there been a
legitimate surplus In postal
since 1883, and that under Mr.. Hitch
cocks administration in 1911 there ac-
tually was a deficit of more than
$750,000.
Just before President Wilson ooh
Office, the report says. Mr.. Hitchcock
filled long standing vacancies, made
postponed promotions and assumed
commitments to fixed charges for long
terms In such a way "as to saddle the
new administration with the greatly
increased expenses during months, II
not years, to come"
The fiscal statement Of the postal
service for 1912 purported to show a
deficit of 81. 7S5,523, but that sum-, the
investigators say. was undervalued BY
nearly 800, 600.

many interesting structures were

Of these bridges has a span Of more

Of course, well acquainted with all
