THROW OUT CROOKED RIDERS
Stewards Of New York jockey Club
Deny Licenses 70 Several Jockeys
and Trainers.

1t is understood on good authority
that the stewards of the Jockey club
Of New York have practically decided
to deny the applications or several
well-known riders for a renewal of
their licenses In 1921. This action win
be taken. 1t is said. as result of
careful investigation OF certain meth
DDS that have prevailed on the tracks
since the opening of the present cam
Daign. Collision between conspicuous
operators and trainers who have been
able to influence INSCRIPTIONS riders
has been suspected for some time. A.
a natural sequence, the stewards are
determined to "clean house. In. the
interest of the racing public.
Last winter q number Of prominent
riders found themselves under the
ban. No reasons for their elimination
were made public, pet they have re-
Trained from resorting to legal pro
ceedihgs In order to get back. When
more riders and traiIsars join those I'm

racing win applaud the Jockey clubs
stewards for sincerely trying to pro-

The chief reason why Schalk has

MORE WORK THAN PAY

Congress should come TO the
relief of the postmasiers and the
postal EMPLOYEES of the country.
The pay is so small and the cost OF
living is so high that experienced
men are resigning at an alarming
rate in this branch of the public
service. 1t is crippling the mails
and retarding business to a serious
extent. and creating a state OF
public uneasiness over the country.
Congress appoints committees to
investigate and the committees
consume much time IN palavering
and that is about as far as they go.
The postal employees continue to
exist on small pay, or quit, and
the service becomes more crippled
through the employment of new
and inexperienced help.
We have no fault to lind with
the postal service itself. We be-
lieve it is doing all that it can do
under seriously handicapping con-
ditions. We do not believe that
any business enterprise could long
continue to exist under these same
conditions
The laborer is worthy of his
hire the world over, and so long as
employees in the marts of trade are
receiving high wages to meet the
advanced cost Of living, the man
who handles the mail of this great
country should receive equal con-
sideration. Merchants do not
make him discount when he buys
his food and clothing from them.
Why should the government
expect him to discount the value
of his services?
