THE WORST EMPLOYER IN THE WORLD.

That his name Is Albert Sidney BurleSon would
be gladly conceded by any postofice carrier or clerk, we
gather our correspondents, and, viewing the matter i'm
partially. we think that contestants for the post will
have to speak lively to stand a chance Of competing.
The complaints of the postal force are many and
various. Underpay TO the point of starvation would
form the chief item in the indictment. The rang<
from $1,000 a year to $3.50, the present scale as gen.
erously increased to meet the advanced cost Of living,
is still below that Of the cheapest and most ignorant
and incompetent day laborer. 1t is disgracefully and
outrageously low considering the present purchasing
power of the dollar and intelligence and accuracy and
fidelity required OF the workman.
But besides this general prcfteering at the ex-
pense of faithful employees. many of long service. Mr..
Burleson is also accused of gross inequalities and in
justices as between different classes Of employees. Worst
and most egregiously outrageous is the scale paid to
auxiliary employees. which is so per cent greater than
that paid to permanent members Of the force. This
figure is a practical confession that the standard scale
is far below existing wage standards and that to man
the service at all a far higher wage must be paid to
temporary workers to meet the emergency.
OF course, the emergency is not being met by any
such sweatshop tactics and wage p~uggling at the ex-
pense of tired and trusted employees. Clerks and car
riers are resigning by the score. The postal service
a congressional committee month by month and year
by year Investigates" And Mr.. Burleson brags of
economy and profits All that the American people
can do is to apologize for such a public disgrace aud
evil example of constituencies prohteering and promise
to see that Mr.. Burleson's term comes to its appointed
end on March 4, next-New York Tribune.

NEWSPAPERS A R HIT.

Hundreds of daily and weekly newspapers from
one end of the country to the other have succumbed
to the prohibitive cost CT news print and many have
found ii impossible TO get it at any price during the
past few months. In the past few years the number has
mounted into thousands. A more serious blow to the
liberties of the country and the freedom of publicity
can scarcely be imagined. Wherever these small news
papers were published the community is a loser. The
charges that might be preferred against the big dailies
are never brought against the small newspapers. The
majority of them just about make a living for their
owners. There is more crambling to make both ends
meet in the newspaper business as a profession than
there is in any other and it is regrettable in the
extreme that these lesser beacon lights Of a free press
have been extinguished.
The time has come when the larger dailies are
forced TO meet the same perilous conditions which
conquered their smaller brethren The sun nowadays
never sinks in the west but what the cost of something
used in newspaper making does not mount higher. In
the matter of paper. the publisher lives from hand to
mouth. He is unable to say how much longer he will
be able to get cut his paper, some days by the most
rigid economy of his supply of newsprint he is able
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1920-05-20

to get out a paper. He is forced to skimp. and cut
down. At a period when the advertising business is
better than It has been in years he is forced to turn
down advertising. to take less than he could in former
years and TO economic extremely when he needs all
the advertising he possibly can get. He could get il
but his supply of print forces him to refuse it. He
take advantage of the prosperity others are
sharing and yet his overhead goes on just the same,
Material and labor climb in price, yet the publisher,
because Of paper shortage, cannot go out after new
business because he must cut down the number of his
pages.
The situation is critical. It is not a cry of wolf,
wolf" Every newspaper is confronted with the same
situation and there seems to be no remedy at hand.
The newspaper business is not any more a business for
profit but just a mere scramble for existence.

Viola Dana in "Dangerous To
Men is announced as the feature
attraction at the Ditmas Theatre, for
a run of three days, beginning
Monday next. Dangerous Men" Is
and adaptation by A. ]. Younger from
II. v. Esmond's stage drama. ELIZA
Comes To Stay" which had a big
run in London when it was produced
there with Mr.. Esmond and Eva
Moore in the leading roles.
1t is the most ambitious production
of Miss Dana's career and she is
said to have found her favorite role
as the school girl Eliza. who is
thrust at the age of eighteen into a
bachelors household, where, al
though she has taken every pre-
caution to make herself safe" from
men. she suddenly finds that she has
the power TO make herself dangerous.
The screen version switches the
locale of the story from England to
the United States and the adaptation
heightens the charm and dramatic
intensity of the original play. The
role OF Eliza tests even the unusual
versatility of an actress of Miss
Dana's varied experience and she is
reported to have scored her biggest
personal in 1t.
