We heartily approve Repre-
sentative Rankin's support of the
Madden bill, which provides for
an increase in the pay of postal
employees, and we would like to
see this movement extended to
many other classes of govern
mental employees. The salaries
of nearly all are most inadequate.
Many years have passed since the
scale for postal employees was
increased. Meanwhile the cost of
living has greatly advanced and
yet the government insists upon
the same high standard of intel
lect and devotion to the service.

in congress, has shown a most
worthy and commendable inter-
est i'll improving the working
conditions and compensation of
government workers. One Won

this effort is SO difficult, when so
much Of the peoples money is
being scattered to waste in these
wartime activities at Washing
