NEW STATE COURSE FOR TEACH
ING OF THRIFT AND SAVING

Educational authorities in Ken
lucky have officially gone on record
as favoring the Thrift campaign
promulgated by the Treasury De-
partment Of the United States, and
the new course Of study for the
Blue Grass State, that is just from
the press, and which has been
adopted for the next five years, has
full course Of study on Thrift, and
the teachers are instructed that
this must be used as a regular in
struction for their pupils.
State Superintendent Of Instruction
V. o. Gilbert has issued special
letter TO the twelve thousand Ken.
lucky teachers under his charge.
and has impressed on them the i'm
portance Of giving special attention
10 this branch OF education, which
he says is of prominent Importance.
He points out the fact that in days
gone by, before the World War
opened the eyes Of the people Of all
nations to the absolute necessity Of
Thrift and Saving that Waste was
the rule, and that America was just
" classed as the most wasteful OF
all nations.
He urges that by beginning with
The pupils Of the lower grades, and
continuing the study through five
consecutive years, probably more
good will result TO all the peope
than from the same amount Of study
given to any branch Of education.
Those who are now in the grades
in the public schools in a decade
| will be the young men and women
Of affairs in the business and social
world. and the ideas OF Thrift and
saving inculcated now will bear
fruit for many years TO come.
And again. in more practical
way, the quarters that are now be-
ing invested in Thrift Stamps will
have grown into War Savings
Stamps and Treasury Savings Ger
tincates. and these will have ma
tured. and with the i.27 percent in
terest these baby bonds bear will
have been cashed and invested in
some other line Of endeavor, and
viii help TO start the one in business
who began saving in modest way

Wage Standard Set in 1907.

THE public should remember that
the wage standard for the largest
groups of postal employees was set IN
1907. 1t was our attempt to raise this
decade -old standard to meet present
living conditions that brought forth
the above brutal insult.
I'm his six years of office he has
never made single change for their
benefit or offered single recon-
mendation to improve their conditions
THE average Is per cent temporary
wage increase granted to offset living
costs many times greater was accom-
plished over his most bitter and un-
yielding protest. He has time and
again reduced wages practically with
out warrant of law; established speed
up systems that broke the employees
in health and morale; removed en-
ployes because they dared protest
against tyranny or even tell the
truth about conditions in the service.
He recommended to Congress that the
employees right to organize effective
ly be denied and the constitutional
right of petition to Congress be sus-
pended"

The Official Army Register for 1878
the first issue Of this periodical which
gives the name, rank and precedence of
every officer in the regular establish
ment, to appear since December, 1915-
has just come from the printer. Publi-
cation of the issues of 1916 and 1917
were held up by the War Department,
both because of the value of it's con-
tents to the enemy and because Of the
impossibility of gathering accurate data
while the composition of the Army was
undergoing SO great and rapid changes.
The new issue. under the Permanent
Establishment head, gives the names
of Peyton c. March and John J. Pershing
as holding the rank of general and lists
Hunter Liggett and Robert l.. Billiard
as the only two lieutenant generals.
Leonard Wood heads the list of per-
manent major generals. which now in
cludes eighty-nine names. There are
e02 brigadiers, 1.479 colonels and 1.40o
lieutenant colonels. In all there are H.

Say He Has Wrong View.

when Mr.. Burleson characterized
as silly the suggestion made to him by
President Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor that the postal
employees should have an avenue of
approach to him through chosen rep
reSentativeS to secure redress OF
grievances arising in the course OF
employment, he showed a lamentable
lack of knowledge of the trend of
modern industry.
'"All that has been asked of Mr..
Burleson is to institute in his de-
partment agencies similar to those
established by other cabinet MEM
bers for dealing with employees.
He dismissed the suggestion as
Silly He still insists that he must
arrogate to himself complete au-
thority over more than quarter of
million American workmen with
whom he need have no point of con-
tact. 1t is the junker idea. The archaic
viewpoint of a feudal baron. 1t shows
plainly enough that Mr.. Burleson is
temperamentally untitled to head a
vast government utility like the pres
ent-day postal system
: ITO our knowledge Mr.. Burleson is
the only person who has raised the
question of strike among the pos
tai workers. He cannot point to a
single instance where any labor Of
fetal has urged this course. What
we ask is some machinery whereby
postal employees will have a chance
TO present their grievances.
Mr.. Burleson says he has recon-
mended that the government be
model employer. The best answer to
this misstatement is found in his re-
port to Congress in December, 1917,
from which we quote:
'It is regrettable that the organ
lied postal employees are making many
selfish demands and are insisting that
their salaries be permanently increas-
ed, although they are justly compen-
sated, receiving more than three
times as much as those fighting in the
trenches, who must of necessity suffer

HOUsER DENIES STORIES.

M. H. Houser, second vice pre-
sident of the United States
Grain Corporation, has sent to
all Of the newspapers of the
northwest the following denial
of the statements that have been
largely circulated throughout
the district. His statement fol-
lows:
My attention has been called
to articles published in a number
of newspapers througout this
grain zone in which bold head
lines proclaim that l have warn
ed farmers against the boarding
wheat, saying that they would
be held liable as profiteers.
I am at a loss to know where
this story could have originated,
as there is no possible basis for
any such statement in our Gen
eral Bulletin No. Z which is quot
ed in connection with these
statements.
Such a construction of this
bulletin is nothing less than de-
liberate Misrepresentation. This
General Bulletin No. 7, copy of
which was sent you, merely stat
ed that "No storage premiums
would be added to basic prices
at the present time, nor until
there accumulates in the grain
corporations hands a sufficient
reserve of wheat to insure a
measure of protection for future
home requirements, etc.
I wish to state again emphati-
cally, as have stated many
times before, that the sole,objeet
of the United States Grain Cor
poration is to see that the guar
anteed price on wheat is main
tanned, and that no farmers shall
get less than that amount.
We are devoting our best eff
forts to attain this object and ir
carrying out the other duties
prescribed by the wheat contro
act.
