pressed In Letters That Do Not
Exceed Five In Number.

Writers who forever are striving 10
develop vocabulary of long and odd
words to impress the dear reader
would do well to remember that the
greatest things Of human life are ex.
pressed by words Of not more than
five letters, writes e. p. In the Kansas
Editor.
The word II" claims first considera-
ton under the classification. 81" con-
tains the minimum as regards letters
and, casting bushes aside, really
stands above all things else with the
human herd.
Passing on to words Of two letters

themselves as being mighty factors in
the daily grind of human affairs.

Flaw" and art" Continuing, most
iisagrceable trio appears in "tax, owe
and dun" each undeniably mixed up
with mans little whirl. Then come
two words of great argument, wet"
and dry" and at the end the most
popular noun and verb, PIE" and
"eat."
In words OF four. letters there's are
"iife" Itself and many Of the most
vital things Of lIfe-"iove, home, hope,
food, work, news. rest song hair, bald,

The showing by Cox also. that Taft,

made its impression. People now real

Moreover, the Cox hackers have

six votes to Americas one, Is throwing
many more votes on the side of Cox

the jury, which yesterday afternoon
took over the case of United States

wealthy in the land Of their uativ-

The situation as regards Bermuda
is relic of the war just as much
as the stringent requirements for
other countries. Since the treaty
has not been ratified the passport
bureau Is still operating under the
act of May %. 1918. which provided
that no person should leave the
United States except on a passport.
President Wilson was authorized
to set up the definitions Of the act,
and he excluded Canada and Ber-
muda.
Canada was excluded, as IL was
realized that IL would be as hard.

to Europe through the British cor

The Passport Bureau expects its
heaviest season between now and
September and anticipates the is-
suance OF $1,000 passports this
month In the event that the nom-

lPubik Ledger Service,
The Washington herald., 1920-03-20

Four days shutdown in the ac-
tivities of the Passport Division OF
the State Department already has
caused an accumulation of 1000
passports that must await the con-
frmation OF cambridge Colby as
Secretary of State. and has halted
the work of the division in the
busiest month in it's entire history,
IL became known yesterday.
In the six-years period from 1872
to 1918 the Passport Division is
sued on an average $4,000 pass
pots a year., and before our entry
into the war the average had never
been above $4,000. For 1890 the
figures show that $4,000 passport
were issued in January. 11.ooo In
February and 1900 on applications
made prior to March Is Of this
month.
A surprising number Of the pass
ports have been asked for for the
Central empires. One OF the reasons
for this and travel toward Europe
generally is believed to be due to
the prevailing fates Of exchange.
Men who have come to this country
and accumulated several thousand
dollars can at the rates now exist
ing convert their money on a basis
that makes them independently
