VALUE OF POSTAL
WORK STRESSED
BY HUBERT WORK

Inc value of government postal ser
vice. was told in an address broadcast
ed throughout the country by Post
master General Hubert Work, while
announcing postal improvement week
by radio
My message is addressed to every
man, woman and child in the United
States, because in varying degree they
are all affected by the operation of
the postal service. This word ser
vice, by the way, which is so aptly
linked with postal, is something more
than a mere designation of one of the
government establishments. 1t fitting
ly describes what may be considered
The good right arm of the American
people, and expresses unmistakably
the purpose for which it was founded,
almost as soon as the colonists had
set their house in order.
Just what is this service? Primar-
lily it is the transmission of intelli-
gence, the carrying of your written
word from your own hand directly
and expeditiously into the hands of
some one miles away But the Sc.
quel is far-reaching, because the postal
service is the foundation upon which
our government rests.
I'm our constant striving for per
fection, we bespeak your cooperation
To this end we have announced a pos
tal Improvement week to begin May 1
when we confidently hope to reach a
high degree of perfection in render
ing you service"

Thomas Irwin, pastor OF the First
Presbyterian church here. proceeded
today in the absence of any action to
determine who kidnapped the Rev. Mr..
Irwin Saturday night, hit him on the
head, chloroformed him and threw
him in ditch twelve miles from the
city.
The Rev. Mr. Irwin was found by
passing motorists after he had laid in
the ditch three and one-half hours.
Today he repeated that he could
identify none of the three men who
attacked him.
Both factions in the congregation.
which has been split for more than
year, when the pastor preached the
funeral sermon of Jake L. Hamon af-
ter Hamon was slain by Clara Smith
Hamon, were discussing the incident
today, but out of the discussion moth
ing concrete for an investigation has
come thus far
This was one of the things which
brought about the movement for his
removal as pastor.
The Rev. Mr.. Irwin later married a
couple in public bathing pool and ex-
hibited motion pictures in his church,
things which split the congregation
anew.
