SENATE FACES FIGHT
OVER PARCEL POST
Effort to Hamstring the Law
BY CurtaiIing BurIeson's
Power To Be Opposed.

a fight is threatened in the Senate
over an effort to hamstring the parcel
post law.
The postoffice appropriation bill,
which the Senate Postoffice Committee
has ordered reported, contains provi-
sion that takes from the hands of the
Postmaster General. the power 10 make
changes in parcel post rates and zones,
and leaves this power to Congress alone.
II is declared the amendment is in
the interest of the express companies.
Postmaster General Burleson has been
extending the operations of the parcel
post rapidly, and an element in Con
gresS wants to tie his hands.
Senators Bankhead and Bryan are
among the advocates of the amendment.
Oddly enough, Senator BristOw, who is
known as n supporter of progressive
legislation, also is for it.
The only excuse Offered for the
amendment is the assertion that the
parcel post is being conducted at loss
Nevertheless, il is pointed out, there is
no question that the public has ap-
proved the exteution OF the service made
by the Postmaster General.

be assailed. and every effort viii b
made to promote the cause Of getting
Indiana organized by counties. town
ships, and precincts.
What Is happening in Indiana Is hap
pening in numerous other States. The
Bull Moose leaders are trying to get Il
thoroughly hammered into the minds OF
their followers in the 1914 campaign. and
in the 1916 campaign there must be no
such lack OF organization as hampered
them in 1872.
4 great deal OF talk is current that
Colonel Roosevelt in 1916, may get the
Progressive party and the Republican
nomination. This as a matter OF fact.
Is seriously discussed daily. Just nov,
with the Progressive party leaders talk
ing war on the Republicans. and pre-
dieting they viii lop or this Republican
here and that one there, in 1gi4, the
chances for such an eyentuation do not
appear brilliant
Nevertheless there is no question
that such a nomination would meet the
wishes of many OF the leaders In both
the Republican and the Bull Moose par
ties.
1t is the one thing that the Democratic
leaders are afraid Of II they can con
tinue in the present situation with the
Republicans and the Progressive party
lighting each other, they have no aDpre-
hensiOn OF the outcome either this year
OF two years hence.
