WHERE ARE THE BILLS?

To the Editor of the Telegraph:
Dear Sir-You ask in your edi-
torial columns for suggestions for
advertising Thrift Stamps. What's
the matter with you and the rest of
the people who have been so busy
with Liberty Bonds and Red Cross
and other things? 1 have seen ad-
vertisements to save food and coal;
to give to the Red Cross and to buy
bonds on the billboards, but I
haven't seen any billboard campaign
for War Savings. What's the rea-
son?
The War Stamps are the Npoor
mans way of saving. It's all right to
have meetings and big subscriptions,
but because of the way wealth is
distributed there are comparatively
few who are in a position to buy
bonds in amount big enough to get
up and shout about it. But what
we want to do. if what understand
is Mr.. McAdoo's idea, is to get every
one saving. He wants everyone to
feel that he is helping to finance
the war. All right If that's his idea
the bankers committee that sent out
that story the other day about one
person in every three in Harrisburg
being a bond subscriber has got a
lot more work ahead of it. 1t ought
to get the other two out of that
three saving by the Thrift Stamp
method. And The way to do that
is to get the billboards and the dead
walls and make them bloom with
circus posters. We have had a lot
of that kind for the loans and for
food. What's the reason we don't
have them for War Stamps which
interest everyone just as much.

1T SHOULD BE MORE

TRIENDS of the Harrisburg
postofice employees. will be
pleased to learn that there is
at last some prospect of an increase
of pay being granted these hard
worked men. 1t should have come
long ago.
The postal mail service is deterior-
ating. 1t is not to be compared to
the mail service of a few years
back. Everybody but Burleson
knows this. But the fault does
not lie with the men. The ad-
ministration has been so niggardly
in it's treatment of faithful and eff
ficient employees that many of them
have resigned, others have become
discouraged through working under
adverse conditions and all of them
are overworked and tired. Nobody
will begrudge them a raise of salary.
They deserve it. But it should be
more than Congress appears disposed
to grant.

Ehrntttg Gllat

From all accounts the people sof
Harrisburg are taking to the War
Savings idea and the plan of. utiliz-
ing coupons from Liberty Bonds for
the purchase of Thrift Stamps,
which will give Uncle Sam the use
of the money still longer, has be-
come so general that it is no longer
a subject of remark. One of the
city's bankers said yesterday that
the War Savings idea would make
the Postal Savings system look dizzy
| and he guessed that the savings de-
partments of some of the banks
would have to let the government
do business for a time. AS matter
| of fact this city has had a very
gratifying increase in the number of
purely savings accounts in the last
| few years. There have been many
| established by young people and
from them have grown some lots
and bonds. Harrisburg has plenty
| of money and it is held fairly we'll,
but the folks seem to have opened
up when 1t comes to Liberty Bonds
and contributions. Now they are
starting to save and from what is
said by the men who have been do
| ing the canvassing there is no diff
| ficulty to secure pledges, but rather
| troublesome to get away from peo-
pie who want to buy the stamps
| from the canvassers. Postmaster
| Sites has suggested that when this
situation is met that the canvassers
| tell the people to buy from the let
ter carriers, all of whom are striv-
| ing for the War Savings Stamps
which. William M. Donaldson has
| offered, as prizes. 1t will not be
long before people will be trading in
War Stamps and they will be taken
at face value at stores by and by
when people wake up to what they
really mean,

mot IN POLITICS"

" HE State Police force is not
in politics" says Captain
George f. Lumb to the charge
that his department is being dragged
into political factionalism.
The public will commend Captain
1umb for his stand. The State Po-
lice never have been in politics and
they never should be. The State
Police constitute the finest body of
men of the kind in the world. They
know no law except the law of the
land and Captain Lumb has been
one of the big factors in their de-
velopment.
No candidate for political office
has any business to ask anything of
the State Police. No State official, of
any rank, has any right to seek their
support for anything but the up
holding of the law. Captain Lumb's
position is absolutely correct. He is
to be praised for his manly and
courageous stand

NOT A NATTER OF PROFIT

A FEW people of Harrisburg. it
"A is reported, have declined to
take war garden" plots this year
because they cannot make money
from them" This is entirely a
wrong view. The food problem of
the United States is not one of price,
but of production. War gardens"
are not especially designed to make
money" for anybody. The Chamber
of Commerce procures the ground,
plows it, harrows it and fertilizes it,
and lets it out at a price that does
not cover one-half the cost. The
Chamber puts the ground into the
growers hands, not that he may
make a lot of money out of it, but
that the production of foodstuffs
may be increased; although, if he be
careful, he may save money by
doing his own growing.
Making a war garden" this year
is just as much a patriotic duty rs
buying War Stamps or giving to the
Red Cross. We must not only feed
ourselves, but millions of people
over the seas. We have been ac-
customed to look to our farmers to
produce all the food we require, and
ordinarily this may be done with
safety. But the farmer is now called
upon to grow more foodstuffs than
ever before, with a working force
that has been greatly depleted by
the calls of the draft and by men
summoned to all manner of war in
dustries. II we are not to go hungry
next winter we must grow food for
ourselves this summer. It is not a
matter of profit. Even though it
cost him double price to grow his
own vegetables this summer-which
it will mott is the duty of the
patriotic citizen to help increase the
food supply by his own efforts.
The days are long now and there
is ample time for cultivation. The
daylight saving" law was enacted
for just such purposes. There are
a few plots still to be had. Waste
no time in getting one and putting
