BILL AIMED At
CIVIL SERVICE
Amendment to Postofice
Appropriation Bill
Means Much.
POWER OF THREE MEN
Control 100000 Offices-Would Place
Power of Appointment in Hands Of
Postmaster fsSExSa!

Washington, August 1O.-"t the
amendment to the postoffice approprl-
alton bill, which has just been pass
ed by the house, giving authority to
postmasters to dismiss all civil SER
vice clerks and'employ those who may
be desired, is passed by senate" said
leading member of Congress, 1T
means that the death of the civil
service commission is close at hand,
and that the efforts of certain "spolls-
men, are about to be successful
Stripped of technicaiities, the
amendment to the Moon bill, which
has Just been adopted, this amend
ment having been proposed by Rep
resentative Cullop, Of Indiana, Kills
the civil service with one mighty
blow. This action means that, so 1ar
as the postoffices throughout the
coul..ry are concerned, whether they
be located in Chicago New York,
Boston, Philadelphia, or some of the
other large cities, or whether they
are at the smallest crossroads settle
ments, civil service hereafter will be-
come 9 dead letter and that the only
authority over the many thousands Of
employees will be the postmaster him.
self-the man who appoints them.
"Already the civil service commits
sion," Mr.. Cullop said, "controls more
than 25O,OOO offices in this country.
The salaries of these are enormous.
The desire to retain the office and
the power conferred is great. That
is too much power TO be placed IN the
hands Of a commission composed of
three men. The salaries reach into
the millions. That power must be
,!ecentralized. Some day it will be-
cane a menace to the administration
of the government. 1t is powerful
enough now to control the votes Of
many Of the States Of the Union. 1t
can. dictate to these officeholders
how they shall act in the political
campaigns. 1t is not the number of
officcholders alone subservient TO the
wants and desires of this commits
sion but added to this great number
are those dependent upon them for
subsistence and those who are inter
csted in these persons holding their
positions.
"Civil service has in the past been
employed for political purposes 10
advance political fortunes, and it
will, if the power is not removed, be
done so again"
If the amendment is finally agreed
upon, It means the immediate end of
the commission.

A serious cutting scrape took place
at Warwick. four miles south of Alex

RESULTS OF WAR.
Prices of Produce in Berlin Have
Doubled During Past Few Days.

. LONDON, August 1O.-Arrivals fro:n
Germany report that when the full
lew of all males between the ages of
twenty and thirty years is complete it
is estimated that about 100000 Ger
mans will be at war or ready.
Prices at Berlin are said to be rush
ing up fast. The government has
tried to fix the price of rye, wheat,
flour, maize and salt but still the cost
of living has doubled. The families
of the reservists have to live some
how.
The government has issued forms
under which poverty stricken wife
may apply for an allowance, with
something extra for every child un-
der fifteen years of age.
The government also has issued
regulations for the billeting of sold
iers in private houses, the payment
ranging from S1.15 day for the
lodging of officers. down to 25 cents
for privatcs. But this is little against
the expense or the trouble.
Then there is the harvest. 1t is ripe.
A good deal is cut and tied in sheaves.
Bands of students and schoolboys
have volunteered to gather it in. Wo-
men toll day ard night in the fields,
but still the loss of food is incalcula-
BILE.
Before mobilization began on Au-
gust 2, all trains. to Berlin were
crowded to bursting. Every well-to-
do family, away on holidays, came
hurrying back. All their luggage
was lost. At every station trunks
and portmanteaus stand piled up in
enormous heaps.
The main Friederichstrasse station
is so cramped that luggage has over
flowed into the square and lies en-
posed to man and rain. Tuesday, the
stationmaster told one traveller that
his portmanteau was one of 1920
lost in Berlin alone. All day long
Wlstful owners wander among these
mountains Of possessions digging as
If for treasure. Cabs, taxis and trans
have nearly all stopped. The men
have Joined their companies, and
every horse that can crawl tries t.
trot with the army l1oS.

but the forts still hold out against
the invaders. The fortific4tions ,
however, are completely invested and
can no longer figure materially in
opposing the German advance. It is
expected that a German force will
besiege them, while the main Ger
man army moves south.
The Liege garrison, with its re-en-
forceemnts retreated, the war Of

is now falling ba0; on Namur, where
