SECOND CLASS MAIL RATES

Arguments in behalf of the Long
worth bill providing for postpone
ment of an increase in second-class
mail rates effective July 1, have been
heard by the House Committee on
Post Roads. If the second-class
rates are increased members of the
committees were told, mail-order
house can send seventy pounds of
parcel post packages in the first and
second zone for "A cents, while a
newspapel publisher mailing seventy
pounds into the same zone will pay
$1.28. For mailing into the third
zone the cost will be $1.44 for par
cells as against sta for newspapers.
The discriminatory rates, it was
urged, would place an increased bur-
den nthe publishers and the out-of-
town readers, without resulting in
any substantial increase in revenue.
The bill provides for the appointment
of a joint committee composed of
three members of the House and
three from the Senate Postofice
Committee, to investigate the pro-
priety of the increase.

by Secretary of the Treasury Mellon
and the Federal Farm Loan Board.
Representative Wingo declared the
Government $65,OOO,O0O on deposit in
foreign countries; that many mill
lions are deposited in this country in
commercial banks, and more mil
lions have been loaned to the rail
roads, and criticized members of
Congress for being squeamish about
going to the rescue of the land
banks.
"This money" he said, els de-
posite-not appropriation; yet
you are requiring the banks to pay
5s per cent interest when CONNER
cial banks throughout the country
are paying ony 2A per cent on Gov
eminent deposits which are practi-
cally permanent and not subject to
fifteen days call, as is this deposit.

KEEPING CHILDREN IN SCHOOL

Every state now has a compulsory
day school attendance law, accord
ing to information recently furnish
ed by the Children's Bureau. In
five States attendance is required
until Is years Of age, in two of these
in certain districts only; in 3 until
II; and in 80 until 16 One state
requires attendance until Is, six
others and the District of Columbia
until IA, and one state requires at
tendance until the age of IL years,
but applies this to illiterates only.
The Bureau says that, "unfortun-
ately the exemptions in the majority
of States are so numerous that they
greatly limit the application of the
law" The most common exemp-
tions are for employment, or upon
completion of specified school
grade. Four states specifically ex-
empt for work in agricultural pur-
suits, with no age provision. The
laws of Ii other States contain
loosely worded provisions exempting
child at any age, which might be
used to cover absence for farm work
as we'll as for many other purposes.
Several States exempt child whose
service are necessary for the sup
port of himself and others, without
any age or educational provision.

one hundred times this sum for the
waste of war. 1t is a bargain price
for a water highway to connect the
great central and western regions
of the United States with the At
lantic. 1t is half what the Panama
canal cost when dollars went far
Their, or about one-fourth what the
Panama canal would cost today. And
the purpose served is to benefit a
great region consisting of Is or more
states holding two-fifths of our whole
population and producing from a
half to seven-eighths of our staple
crops.
And this project will pay for it
self in a very short time, for it will
develop 1,75O,0OO horsepower, whose
rental will pay the interest and
amortize the principal in a few
years.
After that, there will continue the
great saving to the middle region of
the United States, which means a
great benefit to the whole country.
This waterway will save the grain
growers of the country alone at
least $1S3,OOO,O0O a year in freight
costs.
Eastern ports. especially New
York, will fight this project. But
it is of too great value to all the
public to be left undone. 1t will
go through. Because it will, it is
vital to any city to make its plans
and begin its work.-Milwaukee

COST OF LIVING
Changes in the cost of living in
ten cities supplied by the Depart
ment of Labor shows the decrease in
the total of living in each city from
June and December, 1920, to May
1920 This percentage of decrease
in the past year is given as follows.
Atlanta, lat; Baltimord, 17.2;
Bennington, 40; Houston, 1873;
New Orleans, II. 8; Portland, Greg,
1911; San Francisco, 14.9; Scran-

The changes in each of six groups
of articles of necessities in six cities

is supplied for the different cities.
The figures of percentages for Baiti-

Marie Provost plays the role of a
young bride, who has many reasons
she thinks, for the suspicious she
harbors of the fidelity of her youth
full bridegroom. The brunette beauty
of Miss Provost and the pale, blonde
loneliness of Miss Haver may not
be realed by their one-time bathing

lost in that regard more than COM
pensates in the discovery of two au-
thentic, gifted and talented screen

ANNEXATION TALK
MADE TO KIWANIS
Fred w. Marsh Opposes Movement to
Sell West Florida to Ala
bana.

The scheduled debate on the ques
ton Should West Florida be Annexed
to Alabama?' at the Kiwanis club yes
terday failed to materialize, but Fred
w. Marsh, chairman of the public at
fairs committee spoke on the negative
side of the question. He asserted thai
the price which Alabama would be re-
quired to pay for western Florida
would cause an advance of four and a
half mills in the Alabama tax rate III
order to pay the bonds and said that
the the annexed counties would have
to bear their portion OF the taxation.
Another point in opposition set forth
by Mr.. Marsh was that the good roads
program would have to be gone over
anew and that a second election for
the county bond issue would be re-
CURED, thus jeopardizing the entire
good roads program in this county.
Mr.. Marsh could find nothing in ia
vor of changing to Alabama. holding
that the state lines have nothing to
do with the movement of cargoes and
that there would, therefore. be no
economic advantages.
A resolution which Mr.. Marsh intro
duced was made the order of BUSH
ness at the next meeting of the club
and the annexation question will be
more fully discussed.

Judge Henry Belinger asked the CO.

Judge Bellinger called attention to
the great work the Daughters Of the
Confederacy are doing in keeping alive
the traditions of their fathers, main
tanning scholarships and a home for
aged veterans.
Rev. Minor j. Ross, recently elected
an honorary member of the club, was
present and spoke briefly, pIedging
himself to cooperate in every way.

gram. The silent boost was won by

The Resolution.
f. Whereas, our fellow Kiwanian, j. 3.
Perkins, has found it necessary on ac-
count of the health of his beloved wife
to give up Pensacola as his home, and.
Whereas, Mr.. Perkins, as a Christian
gentleman, has Away stood for the best
in our community, appealing to the very
best in the character of our manhood
unafraid at all times TO stand four
square to the world in matters of right,
aggressive in locating and overcoming
that which has a tendency to tear down
in our city, and being always ready to
alleviate suffering and lend a helping
hand to the needy, it being his one am
bition to emulate the Man OF Galilee:
and.
Whereas, it is with the greatest re-
luctance that we, as Kiwanians and cit
liens of Pensacola, give him up to an
other community: therefore,
Be ii resolved, that in bidding farewell
to our brother and fellow citizen, we
convey to him the hope that the new
climate and surroundings will bring to
his wife the renewed strength and
health for which he seeks, the assur-
ance that his friendship will ever re-
main green in the hearts of those who
have learned to love him a friend
never forgetting the unselfish service he
has rendered to our city, and the further
