WHAT POST OFFICE
HAS DONE IN YEAR
ASSOCIATED Press)

Washington, Dec. 1.-The cam
paign for government ownership
OF postoffice buildings through
out the Country was renewed by
Postmaster General Work in his
annual report today to Congress.
Not only would a policy of
/ public ownership relieve the
government of much of its pres
ent housing congestion, the
Postmaster General said, but it
also would make for financial
economy since rentals of more
than $l2,00O,00O now being paid
over annually without tangible
return could be invested instead
in property of permanent value.
Other Legislation recommend
ed by the Postmaster General
included passage of the bill pend
ing in the House to increase the
interest rate on Postal Savings
deposits from two to three per
cent and the rate on Postal Saw
;n8s Bonds from two and a half
to three per cent; establishment
OF d system Of pensions for post
al employees who have been in
the service more than thirty
years Reconsideration of depart
mental employees; a salary read
Justment to permit full pay for
overtime; authorization for mo-
tor vehicle rural mail routes up
to seventy five miles in length 1
maintenance of a guaranty fund
derived from assessments levied
upon postal officials accountable
for funds and property, to make
good losses from the failure OF
such officials to properly per
form their duties, and to take
the place OF the present bonding
system; imposition of additional
postage on improperly or Insult
ficiently addressed mail; and the
extension of insurance and col
lect on delivery privileges to third
class mail.
Reviewing the Departments
activities during the last fiscal
year, Mr.. Work reported that
reduction of $2O,571,986 in the
deficit of the department had
been effected by economies III
administration.
Neglect to properly address
letters and parcels cost the pub
lie more than $4,000 during t.
year. Matter sent to the Dead
Letter Office, however, decreas-
ed sixteen per cent.
Mails were carried by air over
a distance of 1,727,256 miles and

Judge Lands, Decide!
(Editorial)

Judge Lands. supreme commissioner of baseball.
should make decision ut once In the Bill kenworthy
Either one way or the other. regardless Of how the
Judge decides. the verdict should be given and given
Immediately.
For months the case has been dragging along with
kenworthy allowed TO go TO Portland and with Seattle
completing deal for Marty Krug and then shipping
krug to the Chicago Cubs.
What the Judge learned that made him suspend Ken
worthy again after the Iron Duke had been allowed TO
to Portland The Star does not profess to know but
whatever IL the Coast league has right 10 know
what the verdict is TO be-
The Coast league needs Bill Kenworthy because he Is
the pivot Of the Portland team. With the Iron Duke
on the sdenes the Portland club has oundered around
In the cellar For the first time In years the Coast
league had paying proposition in Portland and II
looks like the Rose City fans In for another cellar
assignment unless the club Is braced Immediately
The game, with its frenxied finance, needs players
Of kenworthy's hustling temperament
Baseball, In order to be financially successful, must
have strict organization But Americas national game
borders monopoly and il only thru the good will Of
lands appointed high commissioner Of baseball In
the days when the game was threatened by the Black
Sox scandal and vested with autocratc power.
Unless he that power judeially he Is endangerng
the life of baseball
If Lands bars Kenworthy from baseball he should
make up his mind Immediately the Portland club
re-organize Both William Keeper and Kenworthy have
undoubtedly violated baseball rules by their side
when he refused to to terms with the Seattle club
Keeper is charged with tampering with Seattle play
ers by advising kenworthy TO hold out
Both should be punished in some way.
Far be IL from TO tell lands his business. but
from the Coast league standpoint a decision be
made and must be made promptly. Unless the offense
is judged that would justify barring n from
playing for good the honorable Judge going feel
kckback from the Coast league that rock the very
foundation Of the game il he bars the Iron Duke from
baseball.
