PENNIES GROW TO BILLIONS
A. M. DOckery Gives POstmasters
Some Figures on Thrift

Kansas City, June 9.-After-the-
war patriotism, more SO than the
workings Of the POstOffice Depart
ment, was the topic discussed by A.
M. Dockery, third assistant pOstmast-
er general, at the meeting Of Post
masters of Kansas, Missouri and Okla
homa at the Hotel Baltimore.
After appealing to the audience to
be as patriotic now as during the war,
and asking them to become addicted
to the saving habit, Mr.. DOckery took
pains to impress upon his hearers that
he had nothing whatever to do with
the Postal Zone Law, which became
effective last July. He was at Wash
ingtOn merely to enforce it, he said
Then he praised the pOstmasters for
the splendid results they accomplish
ed in selling War Savings Stamps
which netted the government more
than / billion dollars. Credit for the
sale Of 80 per cent Of the stamps, Mr.
DOclery said, is due to the post
masters. Mr.. Dockery said that IN
1918, when he took charge Of the pos
tai savings, 80 million dollars had been
deposited; now the amount has In
creased to III millions.
The increased postal rate instituted
lin November, 1917, and which will be
abolished July 1, Mr.. DOckery said
had placed 20 million dollars in the
United States Treasury.
A closer cooperation between mail
ers of second class matter and the
postoffice was advocated by the post
masters.

THE BUILDING SITUATION

Leslie W. Sprague, Of the infOrma-
ton department of the United States
Burea uof Labor, says there is a short
age of 100000 dwellings. He has been
travelling all over the United States
Everywhere he went he found q
scarcity of houses. Rentals were found
to be universally high. In many places
people are very uncomfortable fol
lack of homes.
Mr.. Sprague in his public addresses
is endeavoring to encourage people u
20 ahead and build now, in spite o.
the obstacles of high cost Of cOnstruc.
ton. His statistics 60 to show that
building has not increased in cost az
much as most commodities. From this
he claims that it is not likely to BE-
much cheaper later on, 30 that moth
ing is gained by waiting.
Increased cost has been partly on
set by new economics. The substitu-
ton of concrete for more costly ma
terial has helped. A good many con-
Germs are getting out the parts Of
standardized houses, and shipping
them where they are wanted. But the
economy of this plan must depend on
having efficient arrangements for as
sembling and erecting the house after
the materials are delivered. It would
seem as If freight costs on houses
thus delivered ready to set up, must
be larger than when lumber is deliV-
cred in bulk to some near by mill, to
be made up for the use Of local build
ers.
OF course the people must have
houses to live in. No town can 60
ahead unless it has comfortable quar-
tiers for its working people. A great
many buildings viii be erected this
year, on the theory that it is better to
pay a high cost than get along with
out them. But the shortage Of build
ings is not likely TO be completely
remedied, until contractors and sellers
of material ana employees get togeth-
er and arrange somehow 10 reduce the
cost.

them have found a kind Of middle
course in encouraging faithful men TO
carry on little enterprises Of their
own. the work Of which Is done out
side Of farm hours Of labor, and which
tend to make them cOntented and set
tie down permanently.
The old time farm hand" was will
ing 10 work as many hours as the
farmer. II the latter was in the field
at 5 n. m, the "hand" would have felt
he showed no sporting blood not to be
there too. The modern farmer may
come in after a couple Of hours work
before breakfast, and find :. his HELP
just up and smoking on the porch.
The farm hand who demands the
eight hour day does not commonly
want to spend II in sporting life
4 Probably what he wants Is time to de
velop something Of his own. It ma!
