Readiustment of Postal Rates.

The ways are now being creased
for the launching of the movement
for the readiustment of postal rates
This problem was to have been taken
up the last session, but had to be
deferred on account Of the considera-
ton required by railway mail pay.
Since this has been disposed Of the
committees are preparing to take up
the matter of placing the various pos
tai rats on more equitable basis.
A zone system Of rates for sec
ond class matter is being prominently
urged to take the place of the present
fiat rate which was adopted nearly
forty years ago. The present rate
has for some time been regarded as
a discrimination against the news
papers in favor of the great national
magazines. Like the parcel post the
proposed zone rates would be based
on the length of the haul.
The postal committees have been
besieged by petitions bearing mil
lions of names and several hundred
thousand letters from individuals urg-
ing a readjustment Of postal rates
with a view of making possible one
cent letter postage. A survey of the
situation indicates that the various
rates to permit the granting Of one
cent rate on local delivery letters in
the next Congress.

Liam Henry at Kanehoe last night pre-.
dicted the election Of J. c. Cohen as
mayor of the city and county OF Homo

that the people ofsthe city and county
we're anxious for q change.
Taking for his theme the flag and
patriotism, Mr.. Cohen told his large
audience that these were times when
the ideals OF America would be put to
the test. ..... -r..,
we need patriots" said the speak
er, and the time is coming when the
patriot at the polls will be almost as
Popular as the patriot in the trenches.
We must stand by the flag but we
must also stand by the theory that no
city is well governed where there Is
extravaganza.

 On short .hauls the reversible fea- ture of trailer is a great saver of time and laoor. With a reversible model it is not necessary to turn the traiIer around-truck may be at tached to either end, and the trailer can be backed in moment into any position desired. It is not necessary laboriOuSly to detach the draw bar from one end of the trailer and fasten t to the other--both ends are alike. The only time lost in reversing the trailer is the time it takes the truck to turn itself and back into position to receive the coupling link. The item of reversibility saves more time than might be imagined. For example, say it takes six minutes to reverse an ordinary trailer which makes four trips a day. It must be turned around on reversed ct the end of every trip. or eight times during the day with q total elapsed time for the day of 4S minutes. This is time lost in more ways than one, as the running time of the truck is reduced and the work ing time of labor is curtailed. The

 The association also requests the government to appoint a farm adviser for each community, to teach the sol diers and their families efficient and scientific methods of agriculture and to superintend the apportionment of the government loan, insuring its eX- penditure for the development and stocking of the farms. Many of the men who would be benefited by the plan know nothing of farmir~ and few of the others are familiar With scien- tific methods, so, in order that the colonies may prove efficient and may accomplish the greatest amount of good, the promoters urge that the gov ernment take over the work of educa- tion.

FARM FOR SOLDIER
 IS PLAN IN CANADA
(Kansas City Starr

Members of the Great War Veterans association of Canada have asked the dominion government to establish three farm colonies in the province, in which soldiers returning from the war may be given, also $500 each with which to start farming. Returning soldiers are eager to go back to the land and become self supporting, mem bers of the association say. Many of them are incapacitated for earning a living in other ways, but promoters of the scheme urge that in such col onies the labor could be so communized that no man need become a burden on the state. Similar provisions for the widows and families of men killed iE action is proposed with the same plan for divisional labor
