Uncle Sans postal business Is
perhaps the largest business IN the
world. It's run on the true demo-
cratic principle of performing the
greatest good to the greatest num-
Der. If it were functioned by pri-
vate individuals or corporations
it would be run on the accepted
business principle of the greatest
profit or dividend to the share
holders, and the people would be
paying today at least five cents
postage per ounce for letters. The
postal savings system would be
unknown; and the parcel post
would have been impossible.

1t is a startling proposition
but perhaps the post office theory
is the true theory OF all business.
Competition was for many cen
turtles thought to be the one and
only basis upon which to develope
trade and commerce. That has
been gradually done away with, at
least so far as domestic trade is
concerned-and the cooperative
principle applied in its place. 1t
is now conceded by all the great
minds of industry that the con-
centration OF management, the
harmonizing OF all the elements OF
production, the working together
and cooperation OF each and every
unit OF industry with the other,
results in the greatest economy in
every direction. The cost OF pro-
duction is minimized and thereby
the ultimate cost to the consumer
is lessened and the distribution in
creased, The object OF produc-
ton is consumption. When every
family can afford necessities, COM
forts and luNuries in an approx
mately equal measure with every
other, then the purpose of all bus
mess is best served. We might
advance the theorem that where
luxurieS are most generally dis
tributed among a people, there
you will find them the most adj
vanced in civilization; the most
prosperous; the most intelligent
and best educated; the most law
abiding; and with the highest
standards OF morality.

GERMANY TO feed
own Children NOW
American Quakers and Friends
Relief TO Withdraw

Berlin, June 3.-Millions OF Ger
man children who suffered from hun
ger In the war time and afterward
probably will remember the mamma
like meals provided for them by the
American Quakers long after they
have forgotten the name of the Amer
lean Friends Service Committee which
will withdraw from Germany at the
end of July after two and one-half
years OF relief work here.
The Budget Committee Of the
Reichstag recently approved an ap-
Precipitation OF 50,000,oo0 marks for
the purchase OF foodstuffs to continue
the child-feeding program when the
American supplies have been exhaust
ed. These supplies are now expected
to last until Sept. 80. DR.. Bose, chair
man OF the German Central Commit
tee for Foreign Relief and director Of
the Food Ministry. said the govern
ment had granted the full amount he
requested for this purpose, but the
Quaker feeding SO strongly gripped
the popular mind that some members
Of the party OF the Left demanded a
great increase in the federal grant for
that purpose
Is Old Organization.
The Friends organization has been
established in 1910 towns which con-
tain about one-half of the entire pop
ulaton of Germany. Its supplies were
stored in more than 800 warehouses
and it's food was prepared in more
than $50 kitchens and served from
$3.50 feeding places. mostly schools
and child-welfare institutions.
The money value OF the American
food provided has been estimated at
$S.500.0o0. This amount is less than
e-fourth the cost of f1rst-class
battleship," said Francis R. Bacon of
Philadelphia, chairman of the Friends
committee.
He added that from the beginning
the Quakers had the full support of
the German government which, since
October, 1920. furnished all the flour
and sugar used in the ration given to
the children. In addition. the Ger
man people supplied all the costs of
insurance and distribution Of the food
while the Society of Friends paid the
overhead expenses. The German con-
trbution is estimated to average about
two-thirds of the value of the cooked
meals
Mr.. Bacon said that the withdrawal
Of the Friends committee from this
work was made possible because it ap-
peared that the Germans were now
capable and prepared to carry it on
themselves.
The American feeding reached its
height in June and July last year,
when more than 100000 children
we're receiving an extra meal daily
through American bounty.

Coy. Has Taken Steps to Curb
Increase in Juvenile Delinquency

Stockholm, June 3.-Sweden has
eliminated one of the worst curses
which the world war brought to neu-

ing increase in juvenile delinquency.
Not a country in Europe escaped
the epidemic which continued to in
feet the youth after armed hostilities
had ceased. Sweden took immediate
steps to check tn espread of youthful
criminality which threatened to I'M

Fortunately, the country was prepared
having many years before the war
established excellent institutions for
the training of children that showed
criminal tendencies.
Return to Normal.
Dr. David Lund, head of the Social
