POSTMASTER General Hays has
1 ORGANIZED MS welfare depart
ment for postal employees and big
insurance executive from New York
has taken the job of cunning it with
out pay.
There are 100000 employees in the
danaltment and it is no reflection on
ether government employees to say
that taken as a whole they are the
hardest worked and most loyal men
and women in Uncle Sans service.
They have never received the con-
sidcration that they have Saserved
either in wages or working condi-
tiOns.
It speaks well for the intelligence
and fairness Of the new postmaster
general that he not only appreciates
fbeir situation, but that he is trans
latng this appreciation into Serms
of practical relief.
The welfare department may be a
small beginning but it is in such con-
trast to the governments previous
attitude of demanding everything
and giving nothing that it deserves
the commendation Of the public.

We like the sign the Business
Mems club of London, Ohio, has hung
up in that city's streets:
Drive slow and see cur citv!
Drive fast and see our jail?'
Tourists may object to the use OF
adjective "slow" in place of the ad-
verb SLOWLY" But it is reported
from London that all visiting motor
lists understand it's meaning, despite
the grammar.

(I)elayed in Tn1lnsmissfon)


 Washington. F'eby. 3-A broadside was let loose by C. c. Dawes against I;le congressional methods of investi- g;tting the conduct of the war in the very faces of onla of .he war investi- sating bodies today. Dawes attacked what he characterized as the ''parti- san attempt to blacken the name of the American army because of the blundl'rs of a few former brigadier eenattfs in charge of supply procure ment in F'rance.'' Dawes did no. hesitate to express his full views on the subject, waxing vehement and profanity as he cond nmned the Con- c-ressional attacks on the army con- duct and asserted that the House Committees could serve a more use ful public service by turning the searchhght on the waste of millions of governmert dollars right under their nose.
 Dawes waxed so rathv that even the fact that many women were among the crowd gathered in tha committee room failed to prevent him frani swearing Nike buck" private as he things.

On their return they told representative of the Times about their interview with the bolsheVist premier Asked by Senor de los Rios ana Senor Anguiano. who made the trip to the soviet capital, when the Russian dictator ship would be replaced by a regime ol freedom. Premier Lenine said:
 ~We have never spoken of liberty we are exercising the dictatorship of the pro letariat in the name of the minority pe- cause the peasant class in Russia is not
 yet with us. We shall continue to exer
 else the dictatorship until they submit estimate the dictatorship will last about 40 years"
 Senor de los Rios and Senor Anguiano. who disagree as to the expedieney or
 adopting the dictatorship of the proie> tariat idea spent two months in Russia' While both were disappointed by condi' tons there they were full of admiration
 for the possibilities of the Russian revo- lution. Their report will be presented
 at Spanish national socialist congress April 9. when the question of afflliatlon
 with Moscow will be decided.
 The spanish delegates presented the three objections of the Spanish socialists to Ienines 2t points Germs of admission
