AIR MAIL TO-DAY AND TO-MOR.
ROW

During the year just closed the air
mail service of the Postofice Depart
ment carried a million and a quar-.
ter pounds of mail. aggregating
forty-nine million letters, on the
various laps between New York and
San Francisco. This body of mail
was carried with no grave accident,
with no loss of life, with an increase
over the previous year of trips
completed" of almost 10 per cent
92.5 per cent this year against S3
per cent last year.
The flying time between New
York and San Francisco is at pres
ent three days. When sufficient
number of lighthouses are erected to
guide night fliers, this time may be
cut in half; in other words, mail,
via airplane, between New York
and San Francisco, is now predicted
to be as rapid as our present Chi
cago-New York mail, which aver
ages a day and half between post
ing and delivery.
Congress has starved the air
mail service to a large extent by a
failure to provide money enough to
permit the extension of the service.
1t is being freely predicted in Off
cial Washington circles that with
the showing the air-mail service has
just made, it will be impossible for
even the most rabid economists in
the Capitol to continue much long
er the ''do-nothing" policy which
which prevents air mail routes from
being extended, and it's quick-ser-
vice blessings given to the other
great commercial centers of the ma
ton.

MODERN PYRAMIDS

1t is difficult to find subject
much less alluring than cold stats
tices about safe deposit vaults. Ap-
parently realizing this, says the Ma
tion's Business, a Chicago bank has
just issued a piece of unique public
ity, in which fancy fringe EN-
broiders the dry facts. The idea is
worth passing along to every bust
ness man who is interested in new
means of Tightening and decorating
prosaic material.
The fringe consists of an original
jingle which sets forth that the
pyramids were the first safe deposit
vaults, being intended for the safe
keeping of the monarch's mummy;
but that in time a prying person
with a mental twist-known as an
archeologist," dug up the mummy.
1t continues:
If Ramesses
Lived in these days,
He'd find that new
And modern ways
Are far better
Than anything
Devised by old
Egyptian kings,
Of thieves and thugs
Himself he'd rid,
And never build
A pyramid.
He'd rent a drawer,
Without fault,
In a modern safe
Deposit vault.

THE LAKES

MORE than a hundred years ago
AVi the United States and Great
Britain and Canada entered into an
agreement known as the Rush
Bagot convention agreement. By
the terms of that convention each
country agreed that they would
keep on the Great Lakes no more
than four armed war vessels on
each side, and that these four YES
sells should not exceed 100 tons, or
carry more than one gun, and that
gun should not exceed in size an
eighteen FOUNDER cannon" For
more than a century that agree
ment has been sacredly kept by
both sides. Of course it is anti
ouated. We have ne eighteen
FOUNDER cannon these days. They
would be mere toys. So neither
side keeps any armed war vessels
on the Great Lakes. Neither do
they maintain any forts or keep
any garrisons on the frontier three
thousand miles long that separates
Canada from the United States. In
the whole world there is no other
agreement to match this one in
age and results. 1t has saved both
sides enormous sums of money. 1t
has been a standing advertisement
of the desirability of disarmament.
Now the representative of the
Canadian government is proposing
to the United States a revision OF
that old agreement. He says that
he does not wish to alter its sub
stance or injure it in any way, but
merely to bring the agreement
down to date and cut out some
things in it that are obsolete
through the changes wrought by
time.
No doubt the agreement with its
eighteen FOUNDER cannon and 100
ton fighting craft is sadly out of
date. Perhaps other features of the
treaty are also out of date, but we
would rather see it left alone. 1t
has served US we'll for more than
a century, and we have a senti-
mental feeling for it that a new
and more modern treaty would not
have. This treaty is older than
the Monroe doctrine. 1t is the
grandfather Of all disarmament
agreements. It was an unique
thing when it was made, and the
flavor of old age which it carries
gives it extra veneration TO our

FOR PUTTING
IRON IN PATH Of
PASSENGER TRAIN
Former Trainmen Accused of
: Tampering With Rails
at Miles City.

Miles City, July 1S.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press.)-Frank Lehman, for
mer Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
trainman, is in custody in the county
Jail here. being held on a felony charge.
He is alleged to have placed a number
of torpedoes on the main line tracks
in the east end of the local railway
yards on Monday evening. just before
the arrival of No. II. a w%estbound
passenger train. and is also alleged to
have placed an iron pipe across the
rails.
Lehman was arraigned Tuesday af-
~ternoon in justice court following the
filing of a complaint by County Attor-
ney R. B. Hayes. charging the crime
of felony by placing explosives and an
iron bar across the rails. The defend
ant pleaded not guilty to the infor-
nation filed and a preliminary hearing
is set for 2 O'Clock on "Wednesday
afternoon.
Lehman, local officers sasy, is not
in any way connected with any OF the
federated shipments crafts now out on

Washington, D. c., July 17.-How
much farther will a dollar go now
than it would in 1919? This sounds
like a school boys arithmetic problem,
but it is causing all sorts of worry
to grayhaired employers. earnest
young store clerks. and bewildered
members Of the public. So far. no
body's answer agrees with any other.
The, factions that are strug Ving with
higher mathematics as applied to rent,
summer dresses, and carfare are the
members of the minimum wage board
and advisory conference in this city.
In Kansas a similar group recently
gave an opinion that a salesgirl can
live on S11 a week. This rate has
become the minimum wage there, put
it is being fought by the ONE in
volved. Miss Alice Mcfarland OF the
Industrial Relations Court submits
S16.93 as the minimum wage for kan-
sas. compatible with health. Employers
insist that living costs are materially
cheaper than 4 few years age. and that
S11 is ample. Obviously. somebody S
answer is wrong.
Most people regard these minimum
wage contests in different states from
a casual and im%personal point OF view.
The issue seems so remote-whether
girls in stores and factories shall be
allowed money to buy three shirt
waists or four in a year; whether a
SO suit should last them two years.
Yet the issue does concern the pub
liz vitaIly. 1t is pretty well proved that
the girl who is healthy. properly fed,
and reasonably contented is the worker
who is cheerful and efficient. A sales

worker who does not make a living
cannot spend, and this affects business.
But aside from any personal int
rest in the minimum wage, the public
is being asked to take an altruistic in
terest in the matter. Women. especi-
ally. and women's organizations are
being urged to look into the minimum
wage question, and to work for a fair
deal for employer. employe, and the
public. The woman's bureau of the
labor department advocates this.
Woman's Bureau Interested
While it is working directly for wo-
mems welfare. the bureau says that
it aims to be fair and impartial in its
attitude toward the minimum wage. Its
workers have made numerous surveys
of living conditions and have submit
ted evidence to wage conferences. In
some cases the bureaus budget has
been called too generous by the en-
ployers involved in the wage contro-
versy. In other eases. some items
have been listed by the bureau at
lower cos than the employers allowed
in the budget they submitted.
The woman's bureau believes that
two ONE representatives ~ the
public should be in every wage con
ference. rather than two men and one

mind it would be a mistake to SUBJ
stitute a newer treaty for it.
1t is not the first time that
changes have been proposed in the
treaty. The last time the PROPOSE
ton came from the United States.
The proposal had its origin in the
ambition of certain American ship
building firms to engage in the
construction of war craft for Uncle
Sam. This Rush Bagot agreement
stood in the way of profit for a
shipbuilding firm and they wanted
to get it amended. At that time
the British and Canadians thought
it wise to let we'll enough alone
and were satisfied with the old
treaty. They may have changed
their mind since, but we rather
think that the majority of the cit
liens Of both countries would rath-
er let the old treaty stand just as
it has stood for the past century.
It has done its work we'll. So far
as the reader can judge by the As
sociated Press dispatches from
Washington our government is not
averse to a revision as suggested
by the Canadian government so
long as the substance Of the agree
ment is preserved, but we note that
the tone of the comment in the
eastern press on the proposition is
pretty much along the line of the
views expressed in this article and
that Canadian press comment fol-
lows about the same lines. There
fore we do not expect to see any
thing come of the proposal to scrap
the old Rush Bagot agreement, and
substitute 4 new a for it. Y
