 With an almost unanimous sentiment back of them and with citizens in all vacations determined to use their ballot toward tringing about the desired salary increases, it is difficult for many to un- derssand why some of the teachers should feel it necessary to affiliate with labor in order to accomplish their purposes.
 Many of the federation teachers inter viewed complained that inequalities and discrimination in salaries existed Most of them regard their prospective affiiia- ton with the unions as nothing more than means to promote salary increases.

Reorganization of the bureau of in

Two circumstances made this neces-
sary, one being The passing of war
and postwar conditions that laid
other was substantial cut in the
appropriation for the present fiscal
year.
The changes adopted were agreed
on by a committee of bureau officials
and operatives. its chairman being
Louis j. Bailey, at that time division
superintendent at Atlanta, Ga. but
ed Frank Burke few days ago. when
that official left to take place with
the United States Shipping Board.
Under the old plan the work of the
bureau was centralized in Washing
ton, with division offices at New York,
Atlanta, Boston, Philadelphia and
Chicago. Now the entire country has
been divided into nine divisions. each
in charge of a superintendent, and
with subdivisions in charge of sub
ordinate officers. New York city is
the headquarters of the first division,
the other division offices being To-
Gated, respectively. at Baltimore, At
lanta, Cincinnati, Chicago, Kansas

Portland, Ore.
The secret service Of the Depart
ment of Justice is similar in many re-
spects to that of the Treasury Denart-

picturesque as that of the latter de-

that of apprehending counterfeiters.
