him, say the efficiency
experts. Otherwise, they
say. he would surely go
broke. so %antiquated and
Y" at loose ends are his
ways of doing business.
For example. Postmas-
ter General Work and Secretary Mel
lon have jointly submitted to congress
a list of 40 cities where there Is need
of new federal buildings. They state
that the sum of S20,S30, 1875 Is being
paid by Uncle Sam as rent for office
space. They point out that a great
saving and increased efficiency could
be secured by the expenditure of
about $50 600 in a building pro-
gram.
Postmaster General Work is exer-
cised about the post Office situation on
his own account. He is apparently
tired of paying out more thai $4,000
900 a scar for post office rent, espe-
cially as this S5O0,OOO,0OO department
is being operated at n loss of about
S6O.OOO.OOO a year. 1t appears that
Uncle Sam owns only 1.132 post office
buildings, while he pays rent for no
less than 5,S46.

"Basing my recommendation wholly

cited the fact that the department is
constantly compelled to secure addi-
tional postal buildings by contract

istence but to he erected by private
capital. Although such leases ARE me-
gotiated with the greatest care and
through the best competition avail
able. they are usually made on an In
vestment basis of from s to IS per

This state OF affairs arises from
the fact that. generally speaking. con-
