POSTAL SAVINGS.

Larger postal savings deposits
will now be accepted at the post
Office. This is made possible by
On important amendment to the
Postal Savings Act just approved
by President Wilson. A postal
savings deposltOr may now have
an account amounting to $1,000
upon which interest will be paid.
Formerly $500 was the aximum
amount be could have to his
credit. This enlargement of postal
savings facilities will be very
gratifying to thousands of depos
it0rs who have already reached
the old $500 limit and are anxious
to entrust more Of their savings
to Uncle Sam.
Another feature Of the amend
ment that will avoid further EN-
barrassment to the public and to
postal officials is the dong away
With the limit on the amount that
could be occupied from q depos
itor monthly. Under the old law
only 900 could be deposited in
calendar month. The amendment
ab0lishes this restriction.
While the Postal Savings Sys
tenn has already proved q signal
success az 10 shown by the fact
that moro than half a-mllllon de
positors have over eighty million
dollars standing to their credit,
still IL has fallen short Of meeting
the full demands Of the public be
cause Of the restrictions which
have now been eliminated. Post
master General Burleeon and
Third Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral DoCkery have been tireless in
thotr efforts to secure . mod,fica

new libsralizing legislation is
particularly crafty iDg to them.

February 10, 1916:
I'm response to your request for
my reasons for being a Protec
ZIONIST will say this, that hav
ing been in Europe many times
and observed the conditions under
which the working people live in
the two countries-Germany and
England, that pay the largest
wage of any nations except our
OWL am convinced that there
Is no comparison between the liv
ing conditions Of the laboripp
classes there and in these United
States Of Am erica.
"The working classes here are
better housed and better clothed.
better fed, and have more of the
comforts and Injuries of life than
their fellow.workers across the wa
ter; have greater opportunities to
educate their children; have
more public libraries; can attend
more lectures and conce rts and
places OF amusement, making life
less bnrdensome to the toiler; and
these conditions have no hesfta
ton In saying are brought about
by our system of Protective Tar
ills, shielding our workers from
entering into competition with
cheap labor Of Europe.
II have always voted for q high
Protective Tariff, and shall CONT
nue. to do so, as / am sure that a
low Tariff or Free-Trade spells
ruin te our American industries,
and poverty for our American
workers.
"a high Protective Tariff, and
America tor the Americans, is nv
slogan for the coming campaign"

While the precipitation was great,
1t was spread over two days, and
was not violent at any time.
There was no wash or flooding OF
fields The growing crops at this
time are most promising. In
fact there seems to be some little
cause for uneaslness about secur
ing the needed labor for the com
ing harvest. The coming of the
corn crop is great The green
corn now on the market indicates
