Reclassif

Suggestions concerning a reorgan-
lied civil service made by DIR. K. Is.
Rosa before the Washington Academy
of Sciences merit the thoughtful con-
sideration of all who are interested IN
the welfare of the government per-
sonnet in the National Capital. "A
system of standardized positions with
more adequate salaries. and provisions
for revising it and keeping it up-to-
date" is the first suggestion made by
DR.. Rosa in his summary of eight
fundamental improvements in pro-
cedure and conditions affecting the
civil service. This suggestion sums
up the real program for reclassifica-
ton of government employees.
"A system of standardized positions. y
This is something that the United
States government has never had in
it's civil service. It is a system 1t
needs badly.
More adequate salaries This is
the second great essential, as funda-
mental now as the need Of standard
lied system of positions. Many even
may consider this as Of first lmpor-
lance.
Provisions for revising it and keep
ing it up-to-date" point to what must
follow when system of standardized
positions and adequate salary sched-
ules is put into effat.
This simple, sensible program needs
no argument. 1t but awaits the ac-
ton of Congress. The entire citizenry
of Washington awaits with hope the
converting of the short session of Con-
gress. in the firm belief that this fun
damental issue affecting nearly 100000
wage earners here will be- taken up.

One-Cent Postage.

The Postmaster General is reported
to have said informally that previous
recommendations Of the Post ONCE
Department for a one-cent local letter
delivery rate will be renewed in postal
estimates to he submitted to Congress
at it's coming session. 1t is not pro,
posed to recommend any increase In
the two-cent first-class letter rate as
an offset to the cut in the local letter
rate, for the Postmaster General es-
Inmates that the so per cent cut on
intracity letters will not reduce but
will increase postal revenues.
The demand for a local drop letter
rate Of one cent Is general and would
seen to be reasonable. There is no
disposition to argue in favor of a zone
rate for letters, though in theory a
letter should not pay as much for a
short haul as for a long haul. But
the transport charge on one letter is
so small and a coming plan for letters
would be so confusing and lead to sc
many mistakes that no good result
would be reached. A letter posted and
delivered within the same city ought
not to pay the price of letter posted
in an Atlantic coast city and delivered
in one on the Pacific coast. In chang.
ing the local rate to one cent no con
fusion would result and any mistakes
made would be in favor of the revenues
of the Post Office Department.

Those men who were boys half a

camp sites, and nobody outside of their
own parents was especially interested.

a pretty good time, but if they learned
any woodcraft or nature history or
natural philosophy it was In a hap

that many of them were good OBJ

will keep their promise.

Rumania's Interpretation.

Rumania interprets the international
dialogue. over which the battle of
stcnogra pliers, transIators and word
weighcrs has been raging. as fol-
lows: Said the United States. speaking
for itself and the great powers. to Ru-
mania land to the war-born minor
nationsl: You expect me to bring my
Army and Navy over here to protect
you against attack under my league
OF nations guarantee. How can you
expect me to do this, or the other
great powers to pledge their armies
and navies for your protection, if you
do not permit us to have potent voice
in your affairs to reassure us that the
conditions which we guarantee to pro-
tect are rooted in justice?'
Said Rumania in reply: Your words
are warning that YOU will not pro
tect me with your Army and Navy if
! do not permit you (and the other
great powers) to participate in con-
troll of my domestic affairs, and as a
pledge of such military protection if
] do permit your Intervention. ! yield
to your threat and accept your pledge.
l have now done the things which
YOU indicate I must do to make rea-
sonable my expectation of your mill
tary protection. Therefore l expect
and demand fulfllment Of yosr i'm

Use is part of the guarantee which
we are asked to give under article X
and is conditional on the ratification
of that article by two-thirds of the
Senate.
Whether Rumania' s Interpretation
from which our government dissentsl
is accurate or inaccurate, it gives US
a pointed hint not to give any guar
antee at all until we make certain that
it means exactly the same thing to u
and to those to whom it is given. and
unless with full understanding of the
scope of our pledge we intend to carry
it out.

The Last Bids for Victory.

This. the last week Of the campaign,
will be a week of genuine hullabaloo
Both sides will make their last bids
for victory. Pifffe. in quantities, will
be poured out to the voters. It is the
game. 1t has been played before. 1t
is played regularly every four years
But, after all has been said and
done In the way of campaigning, the
plain. everyday American can bank
on two things:
% The verdict rendered at the polls
will represent the sentiment Of the
people regularly expressed, and will
be accepted by the people. The gov
eminent will continue to function in
orderly fashion. At the designated
time the new President will be in
augurated, and the new Congress, if
he gives the word-which he is likely
to do-will shortly thereafter begin
work. Thus the new order, constiru-
lionally decreed, will succeed the old.

gency. Great as is the emergency, we

souls on the curbstone say, Don't you
forget it" We work ourselves up into
a tremendous passion in presidential
years, and then cool off and go about
our business as though nothing had
happened.

Figures from official sources show
very reasonable campaign collections
and expenditures. They cover the
time up to the 18th instant. The repub-
leans, the democrats and the social
lists have through their national treas.
urers reported. and the total is only
about three million five hundred thou
sand dollars.
This is very far from suggesting
a bargain and sale. 1t does not tally
at all with the exciting rumors on
the subject that at one time circu-
Hated. Surely no national committee,
even with the most evil intentions,
would think of bidding so low for the
presidency.
Not all the states have required IN
tensive campaigning. These have not:
Alabama. Arkansas. Florida, Georgia,
Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina
and Texas. 1t has not been neces-
sary for the democrats to spend any
money there, and it would have been
foolish for the republicans to do SO.
Still, after counting those states out,
SO to say, a very large territory re-
manned to be canvassed, and, in these
times, canvassed to the limit. And
it has been so canvassed. The two
leading parties have applied all known
methods to interest the people in the
pending issues.
The presidency has never been
bought. 1t is above the reach Of
money corruptionists. Moreover. men
OF that class are never in charge Of
national party matters. They never
have an opportunity to try their skill
at the expense Of the interests and
the good name Of the country.
