NEWBERRY AND NEWBERRITES

Two of the men who voted to re-
tain Truman H. Newberry from
Michigan in purchased seat in the
Senate have already been eliminated
from that body-Harry S. New, Of
Indiana and Porter j. McCumber, of
North Dakota. Others like Calder,
of New York, France, of Maryland,
Frelinghuysen, of New Jersey, Kel-
logg, of Minnesota. and Townsend,
of Michigan, are on their way to the
eliminator, with good prospects
that there will be several others af-
ter November.
With New and McCumber defeat
ed and with the peoples headsmen
stalking behind the other Senatorial
Newberryites, who are up for re-
election, the beneficiary of all this
treachery to the public interests and
the Republican party, Senator New
berry himself sits smilingly and
comfortably in his seat in the Sen
ate Chamber with the assurance of
several more years of political life,
or until the new Senators elected
this fall meet in the next regular
session, when it is highly probable
that the word Newberry will be-
some synonymous with raspberry.

Economists and statisticians in
the Nations Capital are pointing
out an odd example of the working
of the law Of supply and demand.
So vast are the forces involved in
the operation Of the law that it is
not usually easy to see them except
in the perspective of much elapsed
time. But the result of the strikes
has contracted this period so that
the entire operation can be seen in
a single example.
/ Lack of coal in this country has
caused a sudden demand upon Brit
ish coal mines, which in turn caus-
ed a sudden rush for ships to carry
the coal to the United States. The
immediate result has been an in
crease in ocean freight rates from
England to the United States
amounting to g. hundred and fifty
per cent, or from seven to seventeen
shillings ton.
A ships journey is there and
back. The unusual amount of
freight space available for the re-
turn journey has caused a great
drop in freight rates for the trans
portation Of grain from the United
States to Europe which has been
aided by the inability of American
railroads. to move grain deliveries
at shipping ports, due, of course, to
railroad strike. In England, much
coal, a demand from America, and
insufficient ships send freight rates
up. In America, too many ships
and a scarcity of cargoes end freight
rates down liz, with the prospect
of going to 10 cents, which figure
is much below pre-war minimum.

CHEAP CARS BENEFIT UNDER
NEW AUTO LAW

Kentucky will get an increase
revenue from automobile licenses
next year, the fees on the heavier
and more expensive cars being rails
ed slightly, while those on the
lighter and less expensive machines
are reduced, officials believe, under
law passed by the last session of
of the General Assembly. The State
will lose approximately 100000 in
revenue on Fords alone, or about 81
for each type it is figured, but the
new horsepower hundred weight law
will result in increases on other cars
which will more than make up the
100000. The new law provides 25
cents per horsepower, as we'll as rs
cents for each hundred weight of
the car. The measure. when intro
duced in the Legislature, was op-
posed by the Louisville Automobile
Club on the ground that it would
cause confusion and also that it
increase automobile taxation as a
whole. Under the old law, which
taxed cars according to horsepower
only, It often happened that expen-
sive machines with a low horsepow-
er rating were taxed less than
cheaper and lighter machines.

A man in London tried to hang
himself. He was poor hand at it,
but he died just the same. The doc
tor testified that there was no sign
of death by strangulation, so the
Coroner duly brought in verdict Of
suicide by auto-suggestion," the
first of it's kind on record. The the
Dry is that the man believed he was
hanging himself, because he had a
handkerchief looped over the bed
post and about his neck, and that
the conviction that he was being
strangled succeeded in killing him.
1t is not thought that killing ones
self by thinking one is dead will
become popular!
London also Is responsible for the
story of William Skinner, a sailor,
who lost his life in the battle Of
Jutland. When his body was re-
covered the usual brass identified
ton disc was taken from his neck.
On the reverse of it, in words so fine
they require microscope for read
ing, is his will, leaving his all to
his wife. This, the smallest and
most unique will in the annals of
law, has just been admitted to pro-
bate in the London courts.
The first aerial stowaway has
safely made his flight. One, Mike
Stone, of Detroit, concealed himself
in the mail compartment of the
aeromarine eleven-passenger plane
flying regularly from Detroit to
Cleveland, went to sleep, and woke
up when the motors roared. He
couldn't make his presence known
until the motors stopped, across the
lake in Cleveland.

largest aggregation of animal voices
in the world tuning up in a natural

HITCHCOCK, FAITHFUL SENA-
TOR RENOMINATED

The denomination of United States
Senator Gilbert M. Hitchcock, of
Nebraska, by an overwhelming plu-
rality is a fine tribute to that able,
outstanding, progressive Democratic
Senator and the best assurance that
his State and the Nation at Wash
ington are fully appreciated at
home. His vast experience and
knowledge of legislation coupled
with his qualities of leadership as
sures Nebraska a prominent and en-
viable place in national affairs as
long as he remains in the Senate.
While the Republicans are repudi-
ating and discarding Senators who
have served only the reactionary ell
ement Of their party here at the ex-
pense Of the country, the renomina-
ton of Senator Hitchcock by such a
great vote as he received is q re-
freshing contrast, and shows that
the people are willing and anxious
to reward faithful service to their
interests instead Of to their enemies.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO PAT
R0NS OF P0ST0FFICE


Postmasters all over the country
are being warned by the Postofice
Department at Washington against
certain practices INDUCED in by pat
rons Of the Office, against the rule
and regulations of the service.
Postmaster ]. Walter Payne has ask
ed THE NEWS to give publicity to-
the following, which embodies the
meat of the matter, as taken from
the official circulars from the Post
Office Department:
complaints continue to be re-
ceived that some postmasters accept
parcels to be sent G.. o. D., bearing
labels which state that the parcels
may be examined before delivery
and payment of the G. o. D. charges,
notwithstanding that this has been
prohibited from the beginning of the
this complaint it has been reported
to the Department that certain firms
or individuals advertise to prospec-
tive patrons that their merchandise
may be sent by mail, G. o. D., with
the privilege of examination before
acceptance and the payment of the
C. o. D. charges. Parcels bearing
labels making this mistatement
should not be accepted for mailing.
Postmasters are required to report
any parcels coming within their
notice bearing labels making this
misstatement, furnishing a descrip-
tions of the parcels; also to report
the names of any firms or individu-
ais using such labels or advertising
in any newspaper or periodical that
the Postofice Department will per-
nit examination of the contents Of
any c. o. D. parcel to be made before
delivery of the parcels and the pay
ment of the c. o. D. charges by the
addressee They are also required to
furnish copy of the label or adver-
tisements and the name and date Of
the publication in which they ap-
pear"
Judging from the numerous re-
ports reaching the Department con-
corning the placing of illegal inclos-
ures in parcels mailed at the fourth
class rate Of postage, it is evident
that pOstmasters are not exercising
proper precautions to stop the prac-
tice and prevent the loss of revenue
resulting therefrom, as we'll as the
annoyance and inconvenience to
io1 hn
account of being called upon to pay
the deficient postage in those in
stances where the Irregularities
are discovered. These
illegal Enclosures consist of in
structions for making clothes, re-
pairs to be made to articles such as
hats, fountain pens, jewelry, etc.,
directions as to the development
and printing of Photographic films,
unauthorized additions to invoices,
etc. 1t has also been found that in
some instances illegal Enclosures are
placed in sealed parcels mailed at
fourth class rates of postage
All concerned are cautioned to be
more careful in this respect and
keep on the lookout for such viola
tions. The attention of patrons
should be called to the provisions of
the Postal Rules which set forth the
permissible additions to and inclos-
ures with fourth class matter, and
patrons should be advised that when
they desire to send with a parcel
of fourth class matter a communica-
ton, instructions, or other written
matter not constituting a permissa-
BILE addition or Enclosure under the
law, this may be done by placing
in an envelope prepaid at the
first-class rate.
