ROAST BY
ROOSEVELT
Missouri Senator's Attack on
the Colonel Calls Out
Hot Reply.
SENATOR ASSAILS WILSON
And Is Replied To In the
Senate By Senator
Kirby.
SENATOR ASSAILS WILSON

Col. Roosevelt answered Senator
Stones attack upon him in the Senate
Monday in speech before the Ma
tional Press Club, characterizing the
Missouri Senator's address as an
insidious effort on behalf of Germany
and as The first injection of partisan
ship in the discussion Of the Govern
ment's conduct OF the war Next to
assailing an efficient public servant,
Col. Roosevelt said, the worst offense
is to defend an inefficient servant,
and for that reason he was support
ing lSenator Chamberlain and his as
sociates on the Military Committee
who were investigating the "malad-
ministration" of the War Department.
The Colonel said the navy was in bad
shape the first six months OF the war
and would have met disaster ii there
had been test with the enemy, but
that it was fine" now. he approved
the War Council and munitions direc-
tor legislation.
In three-hour speech to the Sem
ate Thursday. Senator Chamberlain,
chairman of the Military Committee,
replied to President Wilson'S charge
that he had distorted the truth when
he said the military department had
broken down. He not only defended
his assertions, but reiterated them,
and declared that Mr.. Wilson had
grossly maligned him. Senator Kirby
replied in behalf of the Adminis,ra-
ton and contradicted the statement
that facts brought out in the War De-
partment investigation had proved
inefiiciency.

STAMP SALES ENORMOUS
Splendid Barometer Of Dem.
ing's Great Growth and
Prosperity.

Postmaster w. E. Foulks has 90
man's-sized job with his various ac
tivities as Postmaster, recruiting off.
Ger for the Army and Navy, super.
vision of the war savings stamps de-
partment, the central accounting Off
ce for Luna County, the postal saw
ings system, and all the work con-
nected with the secret service and the
department of justice.
Postmaster Foulks realizes more
and more the necessity of a govern
ment building for Deming.
The enormous increase in business
san be understood when il is known
that the stamp sales have increased
from $23, 600 per year to S65, ,SS2 Sc
per quarter and the money order
business from a few thousand dollars
a year to Sl9l,27lG2 per quarter.
These larger figures are taken from
the actual records of the Deming post
office, and when il is understood that
the government business at Camp
Cody pays no postage at all it will be
seen what the legitimate increase in
the post Office business has been.
There is no better barometer of a
clty's prosperity than its local post
Office, and no one will attempt to fig.
ure out that Deming does not enjoy
her full share of prosperity.
As side line the postmaster re-.
Gently established the Camp Cody
branch, which is pronounced by the
postoiiice inspectors as the best clmp
post office in the United States.
With all this increase in business
the postmaster general has not rails
ed the pay of the man who is respon.
sible for this vast value of govern
ment business.
The Deming office and Camp Cody
branch have an unusually efficient
force of employers, and everything
IS being done that is possible to do TO |
accommodate our rapidly increasing
population. --Deming N. Mex. Graphic
