GALLOWAY TELLS
OF RETIREMENT
SOUTH CAROLINIAN LEAVFS
CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION.
Says He Was "Ousted.' -
Charge Made That Postmaster Gen
eral Would Control Commission
as Well as Department.

Washington, Sept. 6.-Upon retire.
ment today from the civil service com.
mission, Charles NJ. Galloway issued
statement declaring that he and
Herman W. Craven, the Republican
member of the commission, were
'ousted'' because they eve e not will
ing that the commission should be a
mere adjunct to the postoffce de-
partment and subservant to IT. especi-
ally with reference to examinations
for presidential postmasters
Galloway and Craven were asked to
resign just before President WILSON
returned to the peace conference
early in March. The letters we're
said to have contained no reason for
the request, but it was said al the
White House that it was the presi-
dents purpose to reorganize the COM
mission. Martin A. Morrison, O.: Ill
diana, and. George R. Wales, of Yer
mont, were appointed new members
of the commission.
Mr.. Galloway's statement today
follows: ...-.
''My resignation was forced because
I would not cooperate with Post
master General Burleson in lebauch-
ing the civil service and making a
sham Of the merit system. Herman
w. Craven, the Republican member,
and I, a Democrat, were ousted from
the commission because we were not
willing that the commission should
be a mere adjunct to the postofice
department and subservient to j: es-
pecially with reference to examina-
tions for presidential postmasters un-
der the executive order of March 81.
1917.
"a very recent example Of Mr..
Burleson's conduct is furnished by his
proposed amendments to this order,
which now await the signature of the
president. The existing order pro-
vides that the eligible with the high
est standing shall be nominated. A
large number of nominations have
been held up, many of them for a
long time, evidently in anticipation
Of this amendment, which will enable
Mr.. Burleson, in many cases, to de-
prive those standing highest in these
examinations of the nominations to
which they are already are entitled.
Among the postofhces affected by the
amendment were those in Boston,
Mass, and Newark, N. J.
Furthermore, a short time ago,
the commission unanimously recon-
mended that the president appoint as
chief examiner an employee of the
commission who is far better qualified
for this position than any other per-
son of whom the commission has
knowledge. But the postmaster gen.
eral desires that the position be filled
by another persoi of own selection. "

FARMERS ROSE TO EMERGENCY.
What They Did to Win the War and
Save World From Starvation
Told by Houston.

Washington, Dec. 6.-ln his annual
report, issued this afternoon, Secretary
of Agriculture Houston tells In a brief
way how the farmers of America
helped to win the war and are saving
the world from starvation by marve-
lousy increased production of food
stuffs. He says that the wheat crop
for 1919 is estimated at "A million BUSH
els over that of 1918, and that of corn
300,000,000 bushels Owe the last years.
In meat production, also, the record
figure of last year will be exceeded,
and the same is probably true of milk,
eggs and poultry. Crop yields per acre,
says Mr.. Houston, show an upward
tendency, due largely to better meth
DDS and better machinery.
Among other recommendations made
by the secretary are: The building up
of n system of personal credit unions
expansion of existing facilities and ac-
tivities for aiding farmers in market
ing; continuation of present policy of
federal participation in road building;
regulation and control of stockyards
and packing houses projection of con-
sumers against m"isbranded and adult
terated feeds and fertilizers increased
support by states for rural schools. and
Legislation for Improvement of sani-
tary conditions and medical facilities

week after IT began. according TO Pres
ident w. q. Lee of the Brotherhood of

The central coal committee of the
railroad administration here is in on
tinuous session. Reports of the geolog
zeal survey show that coal production
is nearing 30 per rent of normal

turned TO Washington from Williams

of the coal situation. After n confer
nee with Assistant Attorney General
