BURLEsON APPROVES BILL

Washington, Nov 24-Postmaster
General Burleson has approved pend
ing bills to reduce the rate of local
first class letter postage to penny
an ounce. A letter for delivery with
in the postal limits of the office in
which it is mailed would take a one
cent stamp instead of two-cent
stamp.
Mr.. Burleson has advised congress
men that the present two-cent charge
on hiatt class of mail exceeds the cost
of handling, and that he recommends
the reduction because he believes the
postal service should not be conduct
ed for profit. The reduction of last
July, whereby letters went back to the
normal rate of two cents and postal
cards to one cent, the postmaster gen
eral says, resulted in large increase
in that class of mail and he believes
one cent local letter delivery would
not reduce the total postal revenue
more than $14,000,000 year.

 In money values the articles disposed of amounted to $259. 000.00 of food $2S,000,000 of clothing, 310.000, ,000 of automobiles and 1852. 100000 of hospital supplies.
 All of these articles were sold to the French for $400,000.0O0 and the values placed on them in reaching the totals were lessened by an allowance for de- preciation, because the goods had been stored, no consideration being taken of the fact that since the time they were bought the prices of all the articles had greatly increased. In addition to the articles named were II different categories of supplies. aggregating the total of $1,759, 100000. The dock sup plies and other permanept equipment installed by the Americans were thrown in for good measure.
 The report also shows that in addi- tion to the sale of all these foodstuffs and other articles in France, the seere- tary of war informed Judge Parker and the liquidation commission there was in the United States huge amount of foodstuffs, and named c, W. Hare as director of sales to dispose of them in Europe. This supply consisted of 3S,- 5S6,000 pounds of bacon, 39,000 900 pounds of roast beef, 36 000, ,000 pounds of corned beef 20,O00.0OO pounds of corned beef hash. 39,000,000 pounds of baked beans, 42.000,000 cans of toma- toes, 42,000,000 cans of string beans.

DID FRANCE PUT ONE
 OVER ON UNITED STATES?

How France drove a bargain with
 the United States which netted it a profit amounting to more than a billion dollars, and how this profitable trans action helped to keep up the cost of living in the United States. is contain
 ed in the report which the committee on expenditures in the war department makes to congress.
 The report also shows it to have been the policy of Newton D. Baker, secre- tary of war, to avoid disturbing market conditions in America by selling sur- plus food supplies abroad. The present shortage in sugar receives an exempli- fication In it's report. which points out that among the war supplies turned over to the French for a low figure were 22,000.000 pounds of sugar
 For the supplies sold the French the United States received s400 900 900. eThey were valued at $1.750. 900. 900. The French also insisted upon including in this transaction the docks, railways and equipment built by the A. E, F. in France, valued at $1S0, 000 900, making the value of what they obtained some thing more than s2,000. 000, 900, for which they paid $400. 100000.
 These facts are found in the minutes of the liquidation commission, of which Judge Edwin B. Parker of Houston, Tex, an aDpoIntee of Colonel House, was chairman. These minutes show that the secretary of war expressed the opinion that no property, or materials not needed by the army for consump- tion in the United States should be re- turned to the United States. and that, in no event. should any clothing. food, supplies or engineering equipment be returned, but that all such commodi- | ties. as the same became surplus, should be disposed of by the commits l sion in Europe to the best advantage. 1 Among the supplies that were so dis
 posed of were 10000 pounds of su-

2.250,000 pounds of butter.
 These supplies. the report shows, MT. Baker wished transported from the United States and sold in Europe. presumably on the same basis that the goods were sold to the French.
 Mir. Hare took with him large corps of assistants and was receiving a salary of S25,000 a year until congress cut It down to $12.900
 In addition to this, according to the forthcoming report. a sale of $25,000,- 900 worth of foodstuffs and clothing was made t9 the Belgian government in the spring of 1918. These were shipped from the United States instead of -b Ang taken out of the surplus stock in France.
 These supplies consisted of 422, 1000 overcoats, 412.000 trousers. 3O0.O0O felt shoes, 165.o00 legginss. 100000 heavy woolen socks and 36,000 khaki coats.
 The report will urge that it was the policy of the secretary of war that nothing should be done to reduce the cost of living in America by disposing of these articles here until congress acted. by quoting from the minutes of the liquidation commission the follow ing:
 The secretary of war pointed out that the war department had on hand in the United States large surpluses of
