Retiring Secretary Says Official
Washington Is Honest But

Washington. Feb. 29.-F'ranknn X
Lane, who retires tomorrow as secre-
tary OF the interior, made a character
istic report to the president today.
In his report Lane declares that Off
cial Washington is rich in brains and
character. honest beyond any CONNER
cial standard, and desirous above
anything else to promote the public
good.
He asserts, however, that the gov
ernment is poorly organized, and be-
lieves that fewer of greater capacity
could do better. Lane declares that the
self protective sense is abnormally
developed among officials, while the
creative sense has atrophied Every
one, he says. lodges responsibility, and
ability is paralyzed through an in
finitude of details.
Greater responsibility for admins
trative officials is urged, with higher
pay. while the great mass of civil
servants should receive quicker pro-
motion or discharge, he says.
Lane was in the service twenty
years. the last seven in the cabinet.

SALARY
REPORT OPENS
Joint Commission Proposes to
Make Increases Effective
Beginning July First
BY GEORGE n. MANNING.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 29.-The
joint commission on readjustment of
postal salaries expects to have its re-
port ready for congress by July /.
1t is planned, at any rate, to have the
salary increases retroactive to become
effective on that date If longer time
is needed to reach conclusions.
An increase in the salary of almost
every postal employee is expected to
result from the work Of this commits
sion. The commission was created by
congress in the last postoffice appro-
that there has been no general read
justment of postal salaries since 1888
and that the pay received by many
thousands of postal employees today is
more befitting conditions of 1883 when
the cost of living was less than half
what it is today.
The commission was directed by
congress to hold hearings in Washing
ton and other cities to investigate the
salaries of postmasters and employees
of the postal service with view to
classification and readjustment of
those salaries on an equitable basis,
and to report a bill to congress, as
practicable, providing the salary in
creases.
The commission, in addition to send
ing out a QUESTIONABLE TO all postal
employees asking for information
about their duties, salaries. etc. visit
ed several cities and heard testimony
of employees of surrounding states. Il
finished up its hearings at St Louis
two weeks ago and is now going over
all the testimony.
Hearings will be given in Washing
ton shortly to heads OF the various
divisions of the postoffice department
here to get their views and recon-
mendations regarding the question.
The commission will then begin the
preparati ton of it's report and the bill
to carry out its Recommendations.
An effort will be made, in large
part, in fixing new salary scales, to
maintain the comparison between the
cost Of living and salaries paid in
1889, when the last salary readjust-
ment was effected. with the cost Of
nving and salaries today.
Senator John Bankhead Of Alabama
is chairman of the commission. The
other members are the two ranking
democrats and republicans on the SEN
ate postoffice committee, and the three
leading democrats and two leading re-
publicans on the house postoffice COM
