IN MONEY ORDER
 DEPARTMENT

The post office department has just announced the completion of an ex- tension in the money order service which will be of great convenience to South Americans in this country who wish to send small drafts to relatives or friends in Brazil. The notice sent to postnasters today reads:
 "Postmasters at all international money order offices are informed that the convention providing for the ex- change of money orders between the United States and Brazil has now been ratified by both houses of the Brazilian Congress. and it is provided that the Convention shall go into effect and money order business may be trans- acted immediately upon such ratffica- uon.
 Therefore, on and after this date postmaSters should transact such business under the same general rules and conditions as is applicable with other South and Central American countries"
 The maximum amount for a single order will be S100, which means that the chief benefit derived is to people with small amounts to send rather than to business houses. The post office department usually transmits money in small amounts more cheap ty than other organizations and it maintains a system of checking that makes it practically impossible for the wrong person to cash the draft.

To the Editor Of The Star:
It will be- another evidence, of
thoughlessness on the part of some
one II the unknown hero" Is buried
and no negro soldier takes part as
pallbearer. BY chance, this unknown
may be colored hero. The proper
tion Of colored men used to prosecute
the late war, certainly justifles a
prominent position in connection with
Armistice day proceedings. II the
purpose of these events Is to develop
patriotism Of the kind that makes
men and women anxious to suffer pri-
vation and death, then no such loyal
group like the American negro should
be made to feel q purposeful slight.
Negroes did not fight to help main
tain white supremacy. they thought
they were fighting to make the world
safe for democracy. and without
doubt they shall again be ready to
fight to uphold equality Of treatment
and Of opportunity, the basic prin-
ciples Of democracy. Some such heroes
as the boys Of the 18th New York OF
our own 372d heroes wearing the
croix de guerre and distinguishe ed
service medals should be honored as
pallbearers on November II.
