STANDS FOR INEFFICIENCY

The postage rates which the reTe
nue. fixers are trying TO impose upon
the newspapers Of the country. which
will practically destroy many Of them
inspired Mr.. Don c. Seltz, chairman
of the committee on postal rates OF
the American Newspaper Publishers
Association to remark recently, in Z
discussion Of that subject. that ut
seems TO be the fate of the govern
ment to be served in the Postof,ce
Department by burcaucrats Of the mar
rowest and stupidest sort" This
opinion does not spring from any Pc
litical malice. but is the expression OF
the business manager Of the New York
World. a stauuch Democratic paper.
What Mr.. Seitz says is eminently
true.
Postmaster BurIeSou is one Of the
busiest incompetents trying 10 hold
down job in Washington. There is
4 long record Of injustice at his door.
Il IS this Department that has cont
PEELED the railroads TO carry parcel
post mail without commensurate COM

them in'o bankruptcy. Besides tho

could not be affected with the ease and
suddenness with which it happened in
Russia.
That there is some change brewing
within the German Empire cannot be
denied. In fact reforms have been
promised by the government TO be
worked out, not now, but when peace
comes. That may be 100 indefinite :uT
those who are pressing for an earlier
actual performance Of these promises.
The German Chancellor's failure TO re-
ply satisfactorily to the interpretations
put TO him is more likely TO increase
the unrest that is rife than to placate
it. And while Won Bethman.Hollwe
assumed very defiant tone in his
Reichstag speech in declaring that he
was not 10 be "swayed by pressure
from any source it is clear that he
was throwing sop 10 the Socialists in
extending the olive branch TO Russia.
1t was, in some respects, the strongest
speech he has yet made in Tightening
up the position Of the despotic aspira-
tons Of the Junkers, but does not
wholly conceal some fear Of what the
future has in store for kaiserism.

UNCERTAIN RUSSIA

There are so many conflicting in
trrcS;S Al work in Russia that the
liberty gained by the revolution is in
great danger OF reyertinS. TO condi'
tons Of uncertainty. The principal
change in the provisional government
was the retirement Of Foreign Minis,
ter Milukotf one Of the prime movers
OF the revolution. He was an urgent
advocate OF the prosecution Of wal
and an avowed opponent Of sepa-
rate peace with the Central Allies,
Like all strong men. Milukof IN
Cured enmities. and it lis believed
that rather than stand in the road of
desirable unity in the provisional
cabinet he effaced himself.
While the halt held out by Ger
many for a separate. peace is looked
upon in British circles with some ap,
prehension. hope IS still held out that
the evident trick will not be success
full in destroying the new democracy
of Europe. Washington Is encour,
AGED to believe that the trend OF
events point 70 a greater solidity OF
the new Russian government. This
confidence was given practical turn
yesterday when the American govern
ment made il q conditional loan OF
S100, 900, 900. Despite these indica
tions, however, there is a general air
of uncertainty about Russia sticking
to the end.
