RURAL CARRIERS
The Number in State and Cost
to Government

In the report of the postmaster
at Nashville are found some very
interesting facts with reference to
the rural mail carriers of the state.
The rural carrier salary pay
ments show a large increase, hav-
ing passed the $2.000,000 mark.
The Nashville postofice pays the
salary of every rural carrier in
Tennessee, 1900 in number, as
well as the salary Of substitutes
who serve during the absence OF
the regular carriers, the latter
numbering something like about
three or four hundred on an aver
age, which means that Assistant
Postmaster House each month
signs approximately 1000 salary
checks, which are distributed from
one end of the state to the other.
These checks are drawn on a local
bank, where the funds are deposited
By the local Office to meet them.
The milage of routes covered by
rural carriers of Tennessee is 49,.
500, which is an increase Of seven
ty-fve miles over the previous
year. The number of patrons
served is 1928 as anainst /, :
1876, $50 for the previous year. 1t
costs your Uncle Samuel" the
amount of $1.57 annually, per per-
son, to furnish those living in the
rural districts Of Tennessee with
their mail, and it costs slightly in
excess of two cents for every piece
of mail handled in Tennessee for
rural patrons.
The annual cost of 81 81 per
patron is considerably less than the
average for the whole country,
which is 81 954; however, the cost
per piece Of mail, two cents and a
little over, is greatly above the
average cost for the whole coun-
try, which is less than II cents.
In fact, the annual cost per piece
of mail handled by rural routes in
Tennessee is higher than in every
state of the union, with three ex.
ceptions: Florida, New Mexico
and South Carolina being slightly
in excess of this state.

GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP
Sims Thinks it Should Not Be
Discussed Now

Representative T. w. Sims Of
Tennessee, chairman Of the com
mittee on interstate and foreign
commerce, directly after the pres
ident's address introduced the rail
road bill in the house.
Judge Sims believes that goY-
eminent ownership should not be
discussed in connection with the
present emergency legislation.
The committee of interstate
and foreign commerce will give
due consideration to the plans sug-
gested and action will be speeded,n
said Judge Sims.
"Of course, the matter will have
to be carefully considered, The
problem before US naturally is
is new IN this country. | consider
that it will be very real problem.
There has been nothing like it
since the civil war. We will give
due and proper consideration to it
with as little delay as possible. If
government operation is success,
the sentiment for government
ownership will be so strong that
nothing will stop it. If it is a
failure, this theory will be so dead
that nothing will resurrect it. !
will urge that government owner
ship be not discussed in consider
ing the present legislation"

STATEMENT OF AIMS
Lloyd.GeOrge Says England Seeks
No Conquest

Premier Lloyd George made an
address Saturday to the British
Trades Unions, making a clean
Ecut statement Of Great Britian's
war aims that created a profound
impression over the entire country.
1t is regarded as the most import
ant state document made since the
declaration of war.
Having first declared that twas
not war Of aggression against
Germany or the German people,
and that the breaking up of the
German people or the disintegra-
ton of their state was not one Of
the objects for which the allies
were fighting, he proceeded to
mention the fundamental issues
for which Britain and her allies
were contepding
First among these was the res
toration Of Belgium and repaTa,
ton for tile injuries inflicted. Next
came the restoration of Serbia,
Montenegro and the occupied parts
of France, Italy and Rumania.
France musthave Alsace- Lorraine,
and to this end. said the premier,
the British nation would stand BY
the French democracy to the death.
The question of Russia was
touched upon, and Mr.. Lloyd
George said that Britain, as we'll
as America, France and Italy
would have been proud to fight by
the side Of the new Russian de-
mocracy. But now Russia could
only be srged by her own people.
He declared an independent Pc
land an urgent necessity for the
stability Of western Europe.
Rumania is to be protected, and
the British and other allies are with
Italy in her desire for complete
union Of the people Of Italian race
and tongue. Of Austria Hungary
he felt that while the breaking up
of the dual kingdom was no part
of the allies war aims, it was inn
possible to hope for the removal
OF causes of unrest in that part of
Europe, unless genuine self-gov-
eminent was granted The Austro-
Hungarian nationalities.
rhe Turkish empire, within the
hone lands of the Turkish race,
with Constantinople as its capital,
may be maintained. But the pas
sage between the Mediterranean
and Black sea must be internation-
allied and neutralized, and in the
British view, Arabia, Armenia,
Mesopotamia, Syria and Palestine
are entitled to recognition of their
separate national conditioqrl
The matter of the German col
onies, all of which are now in the
hands of the allies, will be placed
before a conference, whose decis-
ion, however, must consider the
wishes and interests of the inhabi-
tants-the future administration
must be acceptable to the various
tribes.
The premier made brief refer
ence to the violation of interna-
tional law committed by Germany,
with special emphasis on the sea,
and the peace conference, he de-
clared, must not lose sight Of the
outrages suffered By British and
other seanen and the services they

QUARTERLY COURT
Much Business Transacted at the
January Term

The January term Of the =Ear-
terly court of Carroll county was
held last Monday, and while much
business was transacted, yet the
work Of the term was completed
and the court adjourned long be-
fore the day was spent.
We remember quite well when
it would take two days to transact
the business Of this term of the
court, and we doubt very much if
there was as much business trans
acted then in the two days as is
now disposed of in one day.
/ Monday was a cold, disagreeable
day. The morning was not at all
inviting for a long driven the fierce
wind that was blowing, but large
per cent Of the members of the
court were present. In the trans
action of the business no time was
wasted and everything moved
along tremendously.
John Palmer and Garvin Park,
of the Fifteenth district, were both
absent. The morning was too cold
for Mr.. Palmer on account of his
age and health condition. Mr..
Park was kept away on account Of
the serious illness Of his wife.
Monday was the day for the
election of the road commissioners
for the county under the new law,
which went into effect the first of
the month. G. w. Brooks, of At
wood, j. H. Kee, of Clarksburg
and E. M. McAuley, Of Hollow
Rock, we're elected. These are
splendid men and will, no doubt,
perform the duties of the Office
with credit.
Carroll county will have the
county farm and home economic
demonstrators for another year.
The court Monday voted an ap.
preparation for this work. There
was practically no opposition. The
court passed unanimously a vote
Of thanks to Mr.. q. H. Moody,
the present county farm demon
strator, and to Miss Vivian Haw-
kins, the home economies agent of
the count, for their splendid and
most efficient work. We think
the court did the proper thing in
making the appropriation for the
of this work. It,
would be hard to find two better
agents than Carroll county has.
The court elected Oliver 9.
of Irrelevant, county sur
yeyor. Mr., Sloan is a hustler
and will, no doubt, make a good
officer.
Under the new road law the road
hands are to work eight days, which
is the minimum limit. They can,
however, pay off their time in
cash at 80 cents a day, or $4. 90 for
the entire year.
The court directed Judge En-
ochs to appoint a committee to fix
the tax rate for this year, and to
report at the April term of the
The Judge did not name
his committee that day, but will
do so later.
