No EXCUSE ron FURTHER DELAY.

tt HAT Joint committee Of Congress which has investi-
a gated the pay schedules Of The Postonlce Depart
ment including The Wilmington posonice, should not
waste time in the matter Of getting in lis report and
recommendations
The Investigation has consumed fourteen months dur
ing sn Of which time the underpad and oyerworked
postal employees have been compelled TO contend with
the high cost Of living to deny themselves and to
The members OF their families the comforts Of life and
ease Of mind TO which they entitled n return for the
faithful service given.
The joint committee perform important pub
lie service by Fastening us report and urging upon the
Of Congress adoption Of the payncrease recon-
mcndatons.
As the New York sun-Herad says speaking Of the
postal employees, these have stayed faithfully at
their posts while The cost Of living has advanced by
leaps and corresponding pay increase has
been granted TO hem They have worked TO the limit OF
human endurance with slans shorhanded, the
postal service could get workers enter for the
pay it offered. They have suffered and their families
have suffered because the Government has paid them
what it ought to pay them.
That is an aspect OF the matter commonly under
stood; there s another not usually considered.
Because the Government has not paid salaries and
wages high enough 10 keep its trained poso1ce en-
ployes The service and because It has not offered pay
sufficiently high attract new men to handle the ever
increasing postal business the whole postonce system
crippled, and ii not an exaggeration to say II near
llt point OF cOlldpse,
skilled men, experienced men. men who have spen
years in the service and know It's intricate toisome ro
quirements resgnng, and for months have been
signing by the dozens and by The scores, and by h,
hundreds
All The country the story told; from carrl
ers to assistant postmasters getting out me.
who to stay in but who cannot afford to; wh'
like the work. but who cannot live the pay offers
As these men go nobody forward to take hei
places.
Already the condition is serious. II is constantly ant
rapidly growing calamity-the practical break
down Of the whole postal services not only possible
but Il is within The limits Of easy probability And
be avered only by prompt action by Congress- whcl
should insist immediate report from ils inyesti
eating committee and should act that report wise
and foresightedly without delay.
postonlce salaries should be revised upward In justice
to The men and women The Government now underpays
and for years has underpad and postoce salaries mus
be revised upward il The people Of The United States arr
to continue to have any postal service at AN.

have the baseball proposition of this

The park has been leased outright
for the season and work was to
start this morning toward putting It
in shape for the opening Of the
training season, which is only a few
days away Efforts were made to
find location for park close to
the business district of the city, but
such a site, coupled with the build
ing of park, proved to be too great
task to be undertaken on such
short notice.
1t is pointed out that with min
imum amount of work, as compared

that the Joplin club will train in
