NEW POSTOFF|CE
FOR DUPONT PLANT
Workmen at Hopewell to
Get Accommodations,
Officials Announce
CITY POINT STATION
PROVES INEFFICIENT

The 10000 employees Of the DUPONT
Powder Company at Hopewell. va,
are to have a new modern postofiice,
according to an announcement made
this morning by local officials of the
company. who have received assur-
ance from the Postofice Department
at Washington that accommodations
will be allowed The present nearest
postoffice is at Ocean City, where the
facilities are insufficient. The DUPONT
Powder Company has been trying to
get an Office at Hopewell for nearly a
year
Under the present arrangements
the delivery of mail 10 the company
and employees is very unsatisfactory.
The postotfice at Ocean City is a one
room affair, conducted al a general
store, which is run by a woman. Long
ago it was found that the DUPONT
mail could not be ha1dled there and
since then the mail has been sent TO
the Hopewell offices Of the company.
This, il was found, is equally unsat-
isfactory because of the difficulty
in delivering II 10 workmen
at their homes after It is sent to tho
plant
Some time ago the company asked
the Postofflce Department for a new
postofiice at Hopewell and the reply
that II would be erected in the near
future came today.

July since the outbreak of the European
War and let us take unto ourselves
one great lesson that is appropriate
in this season of national celebration.
And the lesson is this:
To be patriotic one should be thrifty.
To be wasteful today is to be disloyal
TO the best interests of our beloved
nation. We are rapidly approaching a
period in America when we shall have
to be more thrifty. In fact we are even
now entering that era. War. with its
prodigious waste, is bringing home to
us as never before the need of taking
care of our every asset and resource.
National thrift is built upon individual
thrift. The nation, as such, can only
be thrifty to the extent that you and
are thrifty.
So, on this day of thankfulness for
the heritage of liberty that our fore
fathers have given us. let us remember
that posterity will hold us accountable
for the deeds ~ do. We must arise to
the crisis as nobly as did the Coionists
Of Old. Ours are different problems
from theirs and they must be met in
different way.

the foundation for future liberty and
enlightment. We in this crucial epoch
must safeguard that inheritance. We,
too, must lay a foundation for the
future America, and that foundation
must be the thrift of the people.
Here is an example of individual
thrift that came to light in the recent
car strike in Chicago;
Henry Toberg, conductor on the
Blue Island Ave. line, is said to be the
richest street car employee in the
world. The strike gave him his first
vacation since the famous tie-up Of
the Chicago street car lines in 1887.
Toberg's wealth is estimated by
fellow workmen to be in the neighbor-
hood of a quarter of a million dollars.
Early in his career after he had saved
bv dint of economy, sobriety and wise
conservation of his funds, he bought
stock in the street railway company.
This was more than twenty years ago
and now the dividends from this stock
are said 10 be many times the amount
of his annual wages. He owns other
valuable stocks and bonds, has pur-
chased hOlcl anu ONhcl buhulhb9
along the line of the Blue Island Ave
car and his rent roll is said to be up
ward of IS, 900 a year.
Now, if man in such a position
can, in the beginning. save such an
amount and eventually pile up a for
tune by judicious investments and
wise living, surely it ought not to be.
so difficult thing for the worke.s in
stores and Offices. whose weekly pay
envelope is of fair size. to put away
part at least of 1t.
Early lessons of thrift helped Toberg
toward success. He did not live above
his means. His position, with its as
sured salary. proved ample for his
simple wants, and out of it he was able
to save a goodly sum regularly.

Protest his best, keep up the storm

Mr.. Kipline Speaks of Drums.

1t was before distinguished London audience
at the Mansion House that Mr.. Rudyard Kipling
recently discussed the value of bands to soldiers.
The new armies of Lord Kitchener are mostly
without music, possessing not even drums and
flies, TO say nothing Of bands. Accordingly, a
movement is now under way to obtain bands by
popular subscription. And Mr.. Kipling is natu-
rally spokesman.
AS it happened, Mr.. Kipng did not mention
the great familiar example Of what drums can
do. Yet we will wager that not many of his lis
teners failed TO think Of it. We mean, Of course,
THE Drums of the Fore and Aft" wherein two
drummer boys saved broken regiment from
something worse than death. Mr.. Kipling stuck
to other instances at the Mansion House. few
drums and flies meant at least five extra miles
in route march, he asserted, quite apart from
the fact that they could swing battalion back to
quarters happy and composed in mind, no matter
how wet or tired its body might be. The roll
and Furnishing of drums and flies around bar
racks was as warming and cheering the sight
of fire in room. And for illustration:
You may remember beautiful poem by Sir Henry
Newbolt, in which he describes how squadron of
weary big dragons were led to a renewed effort
by the strains Of penny whistle and child's drum
taken from toyshop in wrecked French town.
remember in India in cholera camp, where the
men suffering very badly, the band of the 10th
Lincolns started a regimental singsong and went on
with that queer, defiant tune, The Lincolnshire
Poacher." 1t their regmenta march, that the
men had heard a thousand times There nothing
in it-nothing except all England all the East Coast
all the fun and daring and horseplay of young men
bucketing about big pastures in the moonlight But
as it given very softly at that bad time in that
terrible camp of death it was the one thing in the
world that could have restored, as it did restore,
shaken back to their pride, humor and self
control
In short the soul of battalion was most often
found in it's band-suppying a common means of
uttering moods and thoughts which tongue
tied BROOD" in Mr. Kipling's phrase, could i'll ex-
press otherwise. True Of soldiers and Of many
others, it may DO added, who march better
through life for the melody and rhythm about
them.

The Railroads Beginning to Get Justice.

The Interstate Commerce Commissions new
and saner attitude toward the railroads was EN-
phasized yesterday in the so-called "inter-moun-
tain rates" decision. The transcontinental roads
have TO face the problem of all-water route COM
petition through the Panama Canal, and they
have been anxious TO get official support for the
practice of making lower through rates to the
Pacific Coast from points east Of the Mississippi
River without having to lower correspondngy
rates TO interior mountain points.
The concessions they asked for some years
ago were refused by the Interstate Commerce
Commission on the ground that they were in
conflict with the "ong and short haul provisions
of the interstate commerce act The commission
created zone system through which rates were
to be equalzed The Commerce Court suspended
that action, but on appeal to the Supreme Court
the commissions power to create zones was con-
firmed. The Supreme Court held, however, that
the commission, in interpreting the "long and
short haul" clause, could exercise discretion in
making allowance for the effects on through trans
portation rates Of competition by way of the
Panama route.
In yesterdays order the commission took the
Supreme Courts hint and made fairly liberal
concessions in the way of permitting discrmina-
tons in through rates. These determinations
cannot but benefit the country as a whole. The
East and the Middle West will get cheaper rail
TRANSPORTATION to the Pacific, the manufacturers
and producers Of the Mississippi Valley will be
relieved of handicap against them and in favor
of the Atlantic Coast created by the opening of
the Panama Canal and the railroads will be
enabled to retain good deal of through trans
continental business which otherwise they would
lose The inter-mountain states will be only
negatively injured. They could not get any bene-
fit out of retention Of the higher through rates
to the coast, although everybody else might suffer
from them.
The rational consideration now given to the
railroads is one of the brightest promises OF in
dustrial readjustment. If the carriers can re-
establish their credit and earning power the
problem of winning back prosperity will be amaz-
ingly Simplifed.

Schoolhouses for Polling Places.

The Board of Education has given its approval
to the bill providing that schoolhouses be used
for registration and polling places. 1t is sens-
bic measure and Should be adopted. Other cities
have tried this scheme with success. 1t could not
interfere with the proper Of the schools to use
them for polling places, and the city would save,
the PEOPLES Institute estimates, about s125 900
each election.
1t may or may not be desirable to have this act
of voting, the expression Of citizenship take
place in the dgnifed atmosphere of the schools
There is a certain sentimentalty in that sug-
gestion which is bound to appeal to some persons.
But the merit Of the proposal does not rest on
that appeal alone. The saving to be made in
using city property for this additional purpose,
which is not incompatible with its present use,
is argument enough for the bill.

AN ANTI.SUFFRAGE REPLY

Eighteenth Century View.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Your editorial criticism this
morning of the New York Times's"
archaic sentiments in regard TO woman
suffrage seems to indicate that you
rest it's claims upon woman's larger
employment IN public industry, since
you say "The Times" has missed
utterly what has happened TO women
and their work in the last decades. and
argues against suffrage in the words of
1850" Are we to understand from this
that The Tribune is advocating whole
sale employment Of women outside the
home, in pursuit of the suffrage ignis
fatuus-"economic independence FOR
alp?
II so, permit me TO quote for you the
words of noted suffragist, Ellen Key,
whose opinion on this head is amply
sustained by the findings of factory in
spectors and trade commissions. both
in this country and abroad. Says Nine.
Key: Competition between the sexes
has produced-as regards manual labor
for men and women those lower con-
