Nevada School Funds And Application

1t is scarcely three years since former Governor Oddie was COM
PEELED to call a special meeting of the Legislature in order to legalize
a loan from Nevada to itself, in other words the transfer of about a
quarter of million dollars from the school fund to the general fund,
which latter had become depleted, causing the State to face the prob
ability of losing its credit
Few people, says the Tonopah Bonanza, realize the plethoric con-
dition of the school fund of the State. Here are the figures, max
ing a grand total of IA, 900:
Nevada State School, $3.50, 900; Nevada State 5 per cent, $780,
1000; Massachusetts, 8 per cent, $1,000 Massachusetts,, 8 IL per
cent. $4,000; Idaho, A per cent. $4,000; California State High
way 4 per cent, $4,000; Churchill County High School s per
cent, $4,000; New Mexico s per cent, sl25.OOO; Nye County 6 per
cent, SIS, 1000; Clark County 6 per cent, $4,000.
The interest alone on these gilt edged investments is almost
sufficient to support the schools of Nevada and in addition there is
constant augmentation through the sale of school lands. This
State should have the best educational system in the Union and at
the least expense to the taxpayers, but there is hardly a town of any
size in Nevada that is not assessed for school bonds. and, as may
be seen in the foregoing figures, this interest money is in nearly
every instance paid to some private investor, instead of to the State
itself, which could easily accommodate all the districts in need and
at a lower rate of interest than they are now paying.

Postal Banks Will Take Mail Deposits

Through an extension Of the postal saving bank service. every
person in the United States over 10 years of age will be permitted
to open an account after July l. This will be made possible by per-
hitting persons living in towns where there are no postal banks, to
make their deposits by mail to the nearest bank. Announcement OF
the new provision has reached Postmaster G. L. Broy OF Eureka in
the form of a leanet issued by Postmaster General Burleson.
Because of the many solicitations received by the postoHice de-
partment from persons who wished to make deposits by mail at dis
tant postal-savings banks, the plan for such provision was under
taken. The leaflet setting forth the rules governing the new service,
is soon to be published in % foreign languages and ready for distri-
button at all post Offices.
Under the plan adopted by the Postmaster General for opening
accounts by mail, an intending depositor residing where there is no
regularly designated postal savings bank, will apply to his local post
master, who will see that necessary Identification data is prepared
and forwarded to a nearby post Office authorized to accept deposits.
The intending depositor will then be given permission to forward
his first and subsequent deposits by money order or registered mail
direct to the postmaster at the banking point, for which receipts or
certificates will be issued. He may withdraw all or any part of his
postal savings by mail and on demand, together with any interest
that may be due him.
The new leafet points out that any person 10 years old or over
may open an account in his Or her own name; that an account may be
opened by a married woman free from any control or interference by
her husband; that post office officials are forbidden to disclose to any
person, except the depositor, the amount of any deposits; that with
drawals may be made without previous notice, and that the Gov
eminent guarantees to repay all deposits on demand with accrued
interest.

Admiral Dewey Writes of Our Navy

Admiral George Dewey, president of the general board Of
the Navy for the last Is years. sent a letter to the ban
quet of officers of the Atlantic fleet at New York last Saturday
night in which he said:
1.-THE efficiency of the feet has steadily progressed and has
never been so high as to-day"
The letter was read by Secretary Daniels. The letter also said
the feet was not excened except in size by the feet of any nation.
"Our officers are as good as any, wrote Admiral Dewey, "and
our enlisted men are superior in training, education, physical de-
velopment and devotion to duty to those of any other navy. As
president of the general board for the last Is years, 1 can say with
absolute confidence that the efficiency of the feet has steadily pro-
crossed and never been so high as to-day. However, we need more
ships, more officers, and more men and should continue the wise
policy of increasing the size of our navy. which must remain our
first and best line of defense. This defense unless adequate is
|impotent; adequacy will not be reached until the navy is strong
enough to meet on equal terms the navy of the strongest possible
adversary.

NO ANSWER FROM GERMANY
Sinking of Another British Steam.
er Strengthens Belief Germans
Will Continue Submarine
Attacks

Washington, May 19.-Ambassador
Gerard to-day notified the State De-
partment that the German note
would not be ready for at least a
week. 1t probably will be ten days,
therefore, before the note is made
public in Washington, though it is
possible that Berlin may make it
public before it reaches here.
The news of the sinking of the
British ship Drumcree, off Cardiff,
by a German submarine. and the un-
favorable comments of the German
press on the note of the United
States. caused a pessimistic feeling
here to-day as to the nature of the
reply that Germany will make to the
demands of the United States.
The sinking of the Drumcree made
it dramatically evident that Germany
has no intention of abandoning her
submarine warfare against mer-
chantmen pending a discussion of the
issues raised by the United States.
Won't Quit Submarines
The tone of the German press left
on the minds of State Department
officials the impression that Germany
is disposed to persist in her subma-
rine warfare against merchantmen
upon the plea of necessity, regardless
of the rights of neutrals under exist
ing international law. Her excuse,
of course, will be the oft asserted
justification which she claims exists
in British violations of international
law, through which she has been
made to suffer greatly, and which,
she alleges. threaten her very exist.
ence. The keynote of nearly all the
German press comment on the Ameri.
can note is that Germany must be
more concerned about the things
that threaten her than about the
rights or even the lives of neutrals.
If that shall be the position taken
by Germany in her reply to the
United States note, a break between
the two countries, officials say, viii
be inevitable.
