UNCLE SANS
PAYROLL

A year and a half after the armis-
tice the war department carries IN
it's payrolls 100000 civilian employees.
a civilian roll of 100000, which ex-
ceeds the number of officers and men
belonging to the American navy.
According to the latest estimate.
the grand total of employees of the
government is 1880.
In Washington, d. c.. 102, 1926 civil
lians are still drawing pay from
Uncle Sam, as against $4,000 when
war was declared in 1917.
And in the face of all this. with the
departments SO congested with en-
ployes that they are in each others
way, the postmaster-general recently
increased his force largely.
Even the civil service commission
is unable to furnish accurate figures
touching the civil list and frankly adj
mits it.
The department heads, instead of
recognizing the need of eurtallment
and putting on brakes. without ex-
ceptions are submitting estimates
which call for increased appropria-
tons.
Representative Seigel, who pre-
scented a startling array of figures
to the House, said:
mo official in a supervising capa-
city in any department has come for
ward with any real action showing
that he has endeavored to reduce the
force under him and to attain the
high standard CT efficiency the govern-
ment should have at all times. Of
ticials do not seem to realize that
economy in government is imperative.

WHY HE DOESN'T
LIKE 'ERBERT 'OOyER

Upon being asked to become a
member of the Hoover Club of Ne
vada," D. A. Whitaker, well known
oil man, who is now in Scottsbluff,
Neb., in connection with his business,
gives an equivocal reply, and one that
leaves no doubt as to his disapproval
of Herbert Hoover as the successor
of Woodrow Wilson.
Mr.. Whitaker's reply is character
istic of the recipient of the invitation,
and 1t is as follows:
Il have your literature and invita-
ton to become a member of your
club, also to contribute to the fund.
Il am most happy to say that I do
not believe that Hoover could get a
than 10000. At least l have been un-
able to find a mar who is for him
except he be a Copperhead American.
Personally, / would leave my work
and go into the field to do everything
/ can to secure his defeat If l thought
for a moment he was a formidable
candidate.
"Ye gods! Talk of Hoover for
President! Talk of a mar for Presi-
lent who has never voted in his life!
Talk of a man for President who has
made his millions on foreign soil!
Talk of a man for President who
maintains his home where the Lord
only knows, but l suspicion in
Europei Talk of a man for Presi-
dent that did not know whether he
was a Democrat or Republican until
he felt out the chances of election on
each ticket! Talk of a man for Presi-
dent-oh well, the less said the better.
l cannot believe a a or woman, in
their right senses who has the good of
the United States at heart would sup
port him. If the people of the United
States want a President who has the
ear and support of the crowned head
Of Europe, and l suspect some of the
now uncrowned heads, | can under
stand how they might vote for Hoover.
II am for a real American admin
istration. 1 am a dye1-in-the-wool
Republican. l have never voted any
other ticket. l dislike Wilson as much
as any man and particularly his poll
cies, but I certainly would not accept
Hoover in preference to Wilson.
Thousands of good, red-blooded
Americans could have done what
Hoover did had they been given the
carte blanche and money he had. He
simply was given a position by the
President that enabled him to get his
name before the public.
II am for Lowden; l am for Per
shing; l am for Wood; l am for John
son; l am for any real American mar
that the party may select, but l am
not for Hoover for anything, except
the mansion rooms he maintains in
Europe. d. A. WHITAKER"
