SENATE TAKES UP
SOLDIERS MAIL
johnson Demands Quick De-
livery in France When Let
ters to Son Miscarry.
SPECIAL Despotch to Tns srN.

WAsHINGToN aug 1.-Soldier mail as
handled at present was raked over the
Goals In the Senate to-day by Senator
Johnson (Cal). Anything operating to
keep mail from any American boy fight
ing in France lis the cruellest thing you
can do to that lad" Senator Jones said.
He insisted that there Is no reason why
the present conditions cannot be cor
rected
Senator Johnson referred to the Senate
resolution demanding why mail was not
delivered more speedily to the American
fighting forces,
To that resolution Postmaster Cen
oral Burleson replied that the statement
that the mail facilities IN France were
wretched was without foundation" said
Senator johnson. I'm that statement the
PostmasterNieneral was In error.
speak from experience with at least one
soldier in France. ! say to you that
that soldier did not receive a single let
ter each month from his people, al
though they wrote 10 him four times a
week. He cabled at last In distress to
know what had happened to his people
at home"
Senator Johnson said the letters he
has written 10 this soldier-the Senate
understood that II was his son. although
he did not name him---were numbered
and that the soldier had received one
OF six that he wrote 10 him. while he
received one In four that was written TO
him from the soldier In France.
That has been the condition since
March," he said.
One OF the things that initiates
against American morale abroad, SEN
ator Johnson said, IL :hat they cannot
get their mail and are unable to under
stand It. He quoted Otto Kahn. the
banker, recently returned TO this coun-
try from abroad, as his authority for
this statement,
IT recognize thar there may be trans
portation difficulties In the mail at mis-
time" said Senator Johnson, when the
lads are out on the march and possibly
are not wholly accessible. But there
are Government district post offices In
France now. and so far as can grasp
there can be no reason why the mail
should not go to those particular and
distinct post offices.
ut Is, as ] say, cruel thing that
mail should not be delivered TO these
boys when II has been sent TO them"
