CIVIL SERVICE
RULES AMENDED AS
TO SERVICE MEN

washington, D. c., May 22.-An ex-
ecutive order recently issued by the
president and received by cable
amends the federal civil service rules
so as to permit the U. S. civil serv-
ice commission to waive the physical
requirements under certain conditions
in favor of men who were injured
in the military or naval service.
The civil service regulations specify
certain physical defects which debar
from all examinations and other de-
fects which will debar from certain
examinations. These regulations are
service as tablished by the several
department heads.
Upon the Recommendation of the
commission, after consultation with

cation and the u. s. employees COM

issued an executive order, as follows:

SAYS
FOREIGN MAIL
IS ESSENTIAL

Washington, May 22.-EStablisllmen
of an adequate foreign mail service
is vital necessity in the develops
ment of the country's foreign trade
and a national need which the Amer
lean merchant marine should be de-
signed to fill, Edward n. Hurley,
chairman of the shipping board, told
a conference of representatives of
American business interests convened
here today to consider the question
of the future ownership and opera
ton of the merchant marine.
Chairman Hurley took no position
with regard to the ownership and op-
Grafton of the merchant fleet, but de-
clared the paramount consideration TO
be that of efficient operation, when
alone he said, could reconcile the de
mand of shippers for reasonable
freight rates and the demand of car
rierS for reasonable earnings.
In the establishment of an adequate
American overseas mail service. Mr..
Hurley said, merchant ships should be
utilized as much as fast passenger
ships and the present reliance on for
eign ships for the service should be
discontinued wherever possible. Utili-
cation of merchant ships, he said.
would mean generally more direct SER
vice and more frequent sailings The
idea that mail should be carried
only in fast passenger ships is tfalla-
cious,n he said The foreign mail SER
vice should be placed upon a bust
ness basis, Mr.. Hurley continued, un-
der law providing mile rate fee
graduated according to the speed OF
vessels which would mean reason
able compensation for the service.
Extension of the overseas parcel post
service by means of the merchant fleet
also was advocated.
Development of a centrally controll-
ed wireless service in conjunction with
the merchant fleet also would prove
great asset to American business Mr..
Hurley said, by permitting the trans
mission OF trade information in code.
He advocated placing this service un-
der naval control with naval personnel
operating the wireless on each ship.
Mr. Hurley emphasized the import
ance of making adequate provision for
training American citizens to man the
merchant marine and proposed cadet
training system for deck and engineer
officers.

would not. ordinarily be accepted, the
case will be referred to the federal
board for vocational education. That
board will then decide whether it is
practicable to educate him for the
position sought. II considered practi-
able, the rehabilitation and education
will be given and when completed
certificafion of that fact will be made
to this commission. Where the board
does not consider it desirable to at
tempt the education for the position
sought other positions will be consid-
cred and suggested to him, but he will
not be admitted to the one for which
his physical condition constitutes an
rremediable bar.

Jerome ,Landfield, in The Review.
IN ONE months before the outbreak
~ of the great war there was form
~ ed in Berlin an association for
influencing the press of other countries
Sir Edward Goshen in February, 1914,
reported it as vast system of intV-
national blackmail. 1t was directed by
Hartmann, head of the Press Bureau
of the German Foreign office, and par
ticipated in by representatives of the
Deutsche bank, the Diskonto Gesell-
schaft, the North German Lloyd, the
Hamburg-American line, the Gruson
works, the Allgemeine Elektricitats
Gesellschaft, the Schuckert works,
Siements and Halske, and Krupps.
There is no space here to enumerate
even a few of their known operations
or how they acted as sort of special
General Staff to direct the activities
of a great organization all over the
world that was the complement OF
Germany's military machine. Many of
their operaions in Spain, in Switzer-
land. and in Italy have been exposed
through treason trials, through the con-
LESSONS of anarchists, through the dis
coveries of the secret service. Every
where they promoted strikes and labor
unrest, subsidized socialist and other
radical papers, influenced public opinion
by the circulation of lies. Their biggest
success was in Russia.
But here in America they were no
less active They worked through many
groups and in divers ways. First there
was the honest pacifist group. Innocent
appearing peace societies were organ
lied In one instance fine old Civil
War veteran became the president and
leading spirit of such a society and did
not discover until later that he had been
| made use of by German agents. Berlin
chortled when Mr.. Hearst espoused the
German cause and began his attacks on
England and Japan. Befng tales of Rus
sian atrocities in East Prussia, tales OF
which the Germans themselves now ad-
nit the falsity. were circulated to alien
ate sympathy from Russo and to offset
| the authentic reports of German mis-
deeds in Belgium. Agents were sent
among the negroes to strir them ur
against the whites. Later on these
! fendishly clever men seized upon the
Zimmerwaldian formula of mo annexa-
/ tiops and no indemnities," the secrea
treaties and the restatement of wal
aims as a means of splitting the allies
and confusing liberal thought in Amer

their manifold activities. Their mill

Somewhere in France"-we know

We may not visit him, but this we say:
Tho our steps err, his shall not miss
- their way.
From the exhaustion of Wars fierce
He. nothing doubling, went to his own
place.
To- him has come, if not the crown and
palm.
The kiss of Peace-a vast. sufficing

So fine spirit, daring. yet serene
he may not surely, lapse from what
Greater not less, his wondering mind
must be;
Ampier the splendid vision he must see.
'Tis unbelievable he fades away
An exhaaltion at the dawn of day.
Nor dare we deem that Ne has but re-
turned
Into the Oversoul. to be discerned
Hereafter in the bosom of the rose.
In petal of the lily. or in those
Far jeweled sunset skies that glow and
pale.
Or in the rich note of the nightingale
Nay. tho all Isauty may recall to mind
What we in his life were wont to find,
He shall escape absorption, and shall
still
Preserve faculty to know and will.
Such is my hope, slow climbing. to Z

GIVE US INDUSTRIAL PEACE--By Frank Willis Barnett

I hear the extremists among the rich
and the radicals among the poor give
utterance to thoughts which show that
if either could have their way the other
would be eliminated even if great in
justices had to be perpetrated. There
is an absolute disregard of one an
others rights and those in the saddle
want to ride rough shod on the walk
ers, while those on the ground are
eager to drag into the mud those who
are riding.
IN the crisis we are fast reaching, the
sober thinking people of this country
ought to make their weight felt in the
pressure brought both on the master
full industrial captains and the strong
labor leaders. 1t will be suicidal to lis
ten to those who say: Now is the time
to teach labor a lesson" or heed those
who cry: Now is our chance to get
even with capital" Unless this is done
the great fruits of victory bought at
the cost of the blood of our beloved sons
in battle, will be nu1lified by inferno
cine strife in peace times.
Now is the time for all who love thf
future of America to relegate tradi
tons, suspicious and prejudices and
join hands on an honorable basis OF
compromise and co-opera ton to send
forward these United States to conquer
the world through peaceful penetration
shot through with spirit of men who
are anxious to show forth that democ-
racy is no mere political shibbo1eth
but reality.
We reprobated the hymns of hate
sung by Germany in warntimes, but it
will be worse if we anow ourselves
through fratricidal antagonism to per
NIT them to be sung by men u the
same blood who group themselves un
der the flags of capital and labor They
who do this are sowing the wind. and
the harvest will be a whirlwind Serv-
ice and sacrifice are necessary. He
profits most who serves best" whethel
he be millionaire or day laborer.
