of the government that they have no dis
cretion in the fundamental questions OF
employment. My own wonder is
that. considering the existing circum-
stances, the employees Of the govern
ment are as efficient as they actually are.
Congress legislates for every minute item
of employment There is a lot
of work being done in other departments
which ought properly to be under the
Navy department, and in the same way
there is lot of work done by the Navy
department which could perfectly prop
erly be transferred to other departments.
After seven years down here in an ex-
ecutive position l cannot help the
conclusion that our governmental meth
DDS are cumbersome and wasteful. The
first improvement must come in what is,
after all. the source of governmental ac-
tivities-that is, the legislative branch.
This must come from congress. We need
also a reclassifcation and redistribution
of the work of the executive depart
ments. This can only come IL congress,
working in accord with itself and with
the executives, will discuss the whole
question simultaneously and not merely
piecemeal.
Well, there you are! A Republican
who has been in the legislative branch
of the government for seventeen years,
and Democrat who has been in the
executive branch for seven years, both
telling the same story of how badly
the national business is managed.
The odd thing about 1t is that our
agents and representatives at Wash
ingtOn who let this waste and inef-
ficiency run on, year after year, pay
no penalty. We pay the piper TO the
tune of millions and Enthusiastically

head over the situation and brings in
various proposals of reform, and says
how wrong it all is; but lacking a

The blue eyes so near his own were

power users, the Municipal Light and
Power plant assures its patrons that
enough coal is on hand to insure op-
Grafton of the plant for approximately
so days. The letter follows:
In these days of uncertainty, due
to strikes, when the papers are full of
accounts Of industries having to shut
down because of lack of coal and
transportation fecilities, l thought you
might appreciate receiving a letter
from your service company which
would at least be inclined toward en-
couragement
We have at the present time suf-
flclent coal on hand to operate our
plant, under normal conditions, for
approximately 60 days. In addition to
this we have enroute approximately
10 days supply. There is some cues.
ton as to whether we will be able to
get all of the coal that is enroute as
we are afraid the government will see
fit to divert this coal for railroad use
However, | wish to assure you that
everything possible is being done to
effect delivery.
1T IS our purpose to work with on,
customers for mutual benefit and we
will keep YOU advised during the pres
ent emergency so that it will be pos
sible for you to plan your business in

charge of the farm and has spent a
considerable amount of money on i'm

THE first question facing the board
was that of getting an adequate water
supply. Three wells were put down
on the farm without satisfactory re
suits. Finally, water was located
across the road on some land belong

Smith residence.
