Reasonable View of Postal Tubes.

While there were evidences OF the
usual psrtisanship and antagonism in
the Senateis debate on the pneumatic
postal tubes. fair and reasonable
spirit prevailed, and the result, decl-
sion to investigate the entire question
of mail transportation in cities ana 10
prevent destruction of the tubes until
June 30. 1921, shows just and business
like consideration for all the interests
concerned.
When Senator Mcclellan said that
the tubes werswanted chiefly for the
benefit of the corporations which own
them. he probably told the truth, for
the lobbying conducted in their behalf
has not been chiefly directed toward
getting the question considered on ITS
merits. But Congress should not DE
blinded by propaganda. Unfortunately
when Senator Wadsworth pointed TO
the condition of streets in New YORK
and Boston the past winter as an argu.
ment against abandoning underground
TRANSPORTATION of mails, he did not add
that the existing forms Of underground
TRANSFORMATION are designed only for
letter mail. and at that give service on
very limited routes. In New York City
the tubes connect Grand Central only
with two downtown pestotfiees and
with Brooklyn. The new general post
Office and the important Hudson ter,
minal postofiice were both established
after the tubes were built.
While there is probably enough use,
fulness in the New York tubes and
some others to warrant resumption OF
their operation, it must be remembered
that the greater and more immediate
need Is for a postal connection between
Grand Central terminal and the Penn
svlvania station (which is adjacent TO
the new general postofiieel. This con.
nection is afforded in the tunnel asked
for by Postmaster.General Burleson'
There can be no two opinions about
the need for this, and Congress should
not defer the appropriation, even
through Il has reason for disliking the
postmaster general. = Springfield Re

pmdence-or Improvideneel

Every year we hand over to foreign
COMPANIES a grand total of insurance
premiums, to the tune of S250,0OO,O00.
APPROXIMATELY two-thirds of all the
marine insurance originating in this
country is controlled directly, or by
way of reinsurance, by foreign or Tor
eign controlled companies. With that
goes all knowledge of the character OF
our shipments and the movements OF
our ships, placed confdingly in the
hands Of foreign interests, passing
through the foreign insurance com
panv to the cognizance Of the foreign
merchant and foreign banker.
Commercially speaking, We literally
.giye ourselves away" Yes-and pay
our chief competitors q whopping DO
nus for acceptance. Whereat they nat
urallv rejoice, as in the following
lately published in the London Statist;
In the year before he war, when
We England had only l35 millions
excess imports over exports, we were
rendering very expensive service IN
different parts of the world We were
A. that time the worlds carriers u an
extent Of nearly co per cent. We did
nv far the lions share Of marine in
sarance. and, in addition, We were
ne worlds principal merchant hank

A Procession. Not a Profession.

One of Names distinguished peda-
gogues said recently Teaching Is not
a profession now; il is a procession.
Bv that he meant that the remuner-
alton of teachers is so poor compared
with other professions that the teach
ers were constantly changing, becom-
ing teachers for a little while and then
going out to find something else to do
which paid better wages, so that there
was a procession Of them in and out
of the schools.
Yet the teachers build the foundation
upon which our government rests.
Without the common school there
could be no republic. The better the
schools and the more there are of them,
the safer our form of government Is.
We need to devote ourselves TO the
cause of education as we have not de-
voted ourselves TO anything else IN our
history. Education will be the bulwark
against bolshevism and every other
menace. But we cannot have the kind
Of education for our children we should
have without good teachers and plen'
ty of them
If the several states and cities are
not able to afford good teachers and
cannot pay them what they should be
maid. then the direction of educational
effort ought to be centralized and fed
eralized. The government with the
power TO tax the people can make the
business of teaching so attractive tina,
It will command and hold the finest
teachers in the world. This procession
business must be stopped as the Maine
pedagogue says, or teaching will never
be looked upon As a profession, and q
profession il must be before our schools
are as good as they ought to be-

Warns Gamblers in Foreign Exchange.

II is not the dearth of imports alone
which puts the dollar at premium
and foreign money at big discount.
The matter OF the quantities oil Tor
eign money in circulation also affects
the situation. There are now circulat-
ing m Germany about 10 times as
many marks as before the World war
six times as many francs IN France,
and seven times as many lire IN ltaly'
A somewhat similar statement might
be made in regard to Great Britain.
Even were these monetary units all
gold pieces, the vast increase IN their
number would. in accord with the law
of supply and demand. cheaper their
value. But the newly issued currency
In each country consists mainly OF pa.
per. and the larger the aggregate OF
this, the less proportionately Is the
gold reserve that stands behind II, 10
redeem il, and consequently the less
reliable Il is. The governments OF
France. Germany and Italy are not
raising enough money by taxation TO
meet their obligations. but are con
tinually printing additional notes to
cover their deficits. This only adds TO
the depreciation Of the currency, ana
if the process continues too long the
paper tokens will become worthless. A
German banker predicts that some day
600 marks can be bought for dol
lar. This should prove warning to
all who imagine there is now a safe
gamble" in low rates Of exchange
To restore exchange to normal there
must be not only a huge increase IN
exports from the foreign countries TO
the United States, but also drastic
retirement of immense sums OF unse-
cured paper currency, and an adequate
gold reserve to back up all that Is left

Backing Ideas with Ideals

Sears, Roebuck & Co.,, as merchan- dising institution was founded on an idea-that of soliciting orders, receiv- ing orders, filling orders by mail, But the mail order idea would have failed had Sears, Roebuck & Co.,, not backed it up with sound business ideals.
 Sears, Roebuck 6 Go. realized that if people were going to buy goods they had never seen from people they had never seen, there must be sound reason behind 1t all
