There was some talk in British cir

Postal No Criterion.

The Postal Telegraph system is
therefore in a position to select from
all the business offered that which
can be most proftably handled, and
this it seems to have done in a most
efficient manner. The fact that the
Postal company could continue to
carry business at the old rates and
still earn its compensation is of prac-
ticalIy no significance in construct
ing a fair schedule OF rates for the
company as a whole.
The Postal system reaches only =
fraction of the points at which tele-
graph service is rendered, and at the
points which it does reach 1t could
not carry one-half the business Of
fered. Sound public policy dictates
a schedule of rates which shall give
all the people telegraph service"
AS for the effects of increased rates
upon general business profits, Mr..
Burleson says that so per cent OF the
telegraph service is rendered to in
dustries and establishments. making
large profits in 1916 and subsequently,.
1T also should be noted" he said,
that it is these industries which have
sold to the telegraph companies the
materials and supplies at largely ad-
vanced prices, and it Is their compe-
tition for labor, together with the
increased cost of living, brought
about by the high prices of their
products, which have been directly
responsible for the increase in wages
and has necessitated the present al
vance in rates"

PLAN LOAN DRIVE
IN U. S. OFFICES

Twenty-six committee chairmen,
representing all the Government de-
partments and independent bureaus,
met last night with the central lib
erty loan committee of the District
and completed plans for conducting
the Victory Liberty loan sales cam
paign among the Federal employees.
The general plan of the organiZa-
tion of the Government departments
will be similar to that used in the
last loan drive. There will be big
mass meetings in the open air and
smaller meetings in the offices and
corridors OF The largeg buildings.
where appeals will be mSde by Lab
erty loan speakers.
Meetings on April 81.
Charles W. Darr, chairman OF the
committee on meetings, and Gratz r.
Dunkum, chairman OF the committee
on speakers, both addressed the gov
ernmental chairmen last night and
requested their cooperation in ar
ranging for a series of meetings on
April 21, the opening day. which will
include every department and indie
pendent bureau. 1t was estimated
that it will be necessary to hold $50
separate meetings IN order to reach
all the Government workers and ar
rangements are being perfected to
provide a sufficient number of speak
ers to cover them all on the opening
day.
Each Of the governmental chair
men was presented at the meeting
last night with a medal made from
captured German cannon, which are
being awarded by the Treasury to
Liberty loan workers.

The Presidents defense OF the
! Monroe Doctrine and his address sup
porting selection of Geneva as perma-
nent seat of the League Of Nations
were referred to by some of the dele
gates today as 'the two best speeches
: he ever made" No stenographic

Paul Hymans, of Belgium, urged
: that Brussels be made the league seat,
asserting it was ftting that some city
in BELGIUM be selected, 'In which
memories of the past are closest and
hatred Of the enemy freshest"
sNOt Built on Hate
President Wilson is said to have
replied briefly and forcefully to the
effect the league els not built on
hate but that the wiping out OF hate
among the people of the world is one
OF its prime objects.
When the President arose to speak
on the Monroe doctrine amendment.

head Of the table, the lines of fatigue
on his face accentuated by the hlaz-
ing light Of the chandeliers, he deliT-

the most dramatic and effective
speeches since the conference opened.
The President pointed out that the
Monroe doctrine had fits inception at a
time when absolutism was supreme
in Europe; that it was promulgated
for the purpose Of permitting the free
and untrammeled development of the
peoples OF the Americas. These peo
pies, he said. had now Joined with

against absoluteism, and that they
were able to do so was directly a.

Don't Spoil Your Hair
By Washing It

When you wash your hair, be
careful what you use. Most soaps
and prepared shampoos contain too
much alkali, which is very injurious,
as it dries the scalp and makes the
hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap and beats anything else
all to pieces. You can get this at
any drug store, and a few ounces
will last the whole family for
months.
Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. about a tea
spoonful is all that is required. 1t
makes an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, cleanses thoroughly and
rinses out easily. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and is soft,
esh-looking, bright, fluffy, wavy
and easy to handle. Besides, it
loosens and takes out every particle
of dust, dirt and dandruff.

| GOT SO BAD | COULD
HARDLY TALK; I'll TELL
ANYBODY THE TRUTH" SAID
ENGINEER JAMES A. DECKER

II had been noticing how, day
after day, so many people here told
of what NatoneX had done for them,
and, though 1 knew my case was
worse than the ordinary, | decided
to try it. L had not finished the first
box before l was sleeping soundly
for the first time in months. / am
now on my second box and my trou-
BILE has just about all disappeared.
II am Sc years old and ran an
engine until l was pensioned, and l
say NatoneX is all that the people
here claim for it or it would not
give the good results it has brought
to me, man of SO years"
Scientists say that medicine does
not cure disease" said the Natonex
but they declare the
right medicine begins TO purify the
system so that Nature can work the
cure. That is the purpose of Ma
toneX." .......
Mr.. Decker's splendid case is only
one of hundreds. Day after day
these wonderful statements pour in
from men and women of all ages.
NatoneX is fully explained and
the IL famous Nature remedies
which are combined in this safe
medicine are told about, and Ma
tonex may even be tested absolutely
free at the G.. A. Gorgas drug store,
16 North Third street. Natonex now
is sold by leading druggists every
where. If your druggist can't sup

Never in my life did l give an
endorsement for medicine, but
your NatoneX has given me such
great relief that ! can't help but say
the good words for it," declared
James A. Decker, of 1916 Jackson
street, Scranton.
Known to hundreds, Mr.. Decker,
who for "a years was an engineer
on the D., l.. & w. Railroad de-
clared NatoneX has done such Won
ders for him that he would give a
personal statement to anyone who
wished it. III any person cares to
call on me / will gladly tell them
how much Natonex has done for
me. 1t has put new life in me and
/ do not hesitate to endorse it," he
said.
II am not much of n hand at
writing testimonial, because | have
never done such thing before, but
j will explain my case" Mr. Decker
continued.
quite some time ago, my nerves
seemed to be going back on me. 1
got so it was impossible for me to
get nights rest. Then, about six
months ago, / started to have spells
of getting short of breath and it de-
veloped into regular attacks like

II got so bad that sometimes l
could hardly talk. l tried a mum ber
of remedies and even sent $5 to a

Predicts Withdrawal
Of Foreign Troops
From Russia Soon

London, May 30.-Winston Spen-
Ger Churchill, secretary for war,
speaking in the House of Commons
yesterday, foreshadowed the possi7
bility of the withdrawal of foreign
troops from Russia by the end of
summer, owing to the favorable sit
uation. AS soon as peace was sign
ed, he said. the Rhine army could
be reduced from ten to six divisions,
and still more when it was seen that
peace was being effectively carried
out.
The British policy. said the Secre-
tary, was that Russia must be saved
by the Russians and that new Rus
sia must be a democratic state. The
five great powers had decided to
make it a condition of their fur
ther support and formal recognition
of the anti i-Bolshevik governments in
Russia, that those governments must
give clear undertaking that their
victory would be Immediately fol-
lowed by the summoning of con-
stituent assembly on a democratic
franchise.
