Robinson Crusoe''

The famous old book that nearly
every boy has read was written by
Daniel Defoe, son of a London
butcher, in 1910. And TWENTY
years earlier that same man wrote
a pamphlet which was the real
origin of the idea of savings banks
as Americans now know them.
The Savings deposits in the banks
of this country today are proving
to be the nations greatest blessing.
They enable the people to provide
for old age and a rainy day, and
they enable the banks to help in
dustries to carry on their business
and meet their pay rolls.
Every time you put a dollar into
your Savings account at the Citiz-
ems National, you not only help
yourself, but you help Casper and
you help Wyoming and you help

AS they rode along, listening to the

commented as follows:

procession like this, doesn't it?" said
one. you never hear band at a
funeral any more, do you? Why, its
been so long since they used to have

"Humph. These here funerals has

"vislt and Search" in the Air.

One of the provisions of the regula-
tions which the international jurists
have drawn up allows the men on one
airplane to visit and search another
nirplane. This is like allowing the
crew of one vessel at sea to board and
search another vessel, hut there is a
vast difference. A ship at sea is fairly
stable, while an airplane is pretty
difficult thing to board. The provision
reads like this:
"Private aircraft are liable to visit
ind search and to capture by belliger-
eut military aircraft"
AS this reads it would appear that
in enemy airplane seeing another air

half their time to unnecessary con-
tacts, and considerable portion OF
the national energy Is wasted by the
dominance in America today of a fleet
ing vision, n thirst for sensation ana
a relentless need for motion"
This public dellverance of the sec
retary of state concerns itself with
two thlngs-the time spent by public
officials in doing work that ought to
be done by subordinates. and the al
legged sensationallsm of the press In
dealing with matters of government.
So far as the first section Of Mr..
Hughes remarks is concerned. he OF
course Is everlastlngly right. The
right or wrong in the second section
Is or certainly may be open to argu-
ment.
Everybody who visits n government
department and succeeds In seeing the
chief thereof knows about the time
waste" 1t may be that an American
ambassador home on business of state
is engaged with high matters in the
office of the secretary. Twenty times
during the conference of moment the
door will be opened and an underling
will come in with something which he
says must be signed. The train of
thought and of conversation is broken
and the secretary and the ambassador
are forced time after time to readjust
their mentalities and to try to join
once more the links of the subject.
important Business Often Delayed.
Because of, the unnecessary con-
tacts'' which the chief of depart
ment of government must make each
day, public business of high impor-
tance at times has been compelled to
wait on business of low Importance for
weeks. 1t is known in Washington
that officials of the United States gov
ernment doing duty in foreign coun-
tries have been called home for con-
ferences and have been compelled to
stay in their hotels awaiting the lei
sure of the State department to give
them audience.
The present secretary of state has
found time to talk to every returned
one, but 1t wasn't so In the recent past
with another party administration.
Today, however, a returned ambassa-
dor may get his State department con-
tact, but then he must walt on contact
with a higher office which it is neces-
sary to make before full sanction can
be stamped on the program of action
formulated in the department of for
eign affairs"
Everybody who has read the Page
letters knows that Ambassador Page
was brought home from England for
conference and that he could not
get it. The seeming neglect of the
ambassador on his return generally
has been put down to resentment be
cause of his freely expressed opinions
in letters to the State department and
to the administration. In view of the
known condition of things in the de-
partments of government, the waste
of time made necessary by the i'm
portunities of underlings and noncon-
sequential visitors, it may be that the
reason given for keeping Mr.. Page at
distance was only half the real
reason.
The Colorado statesman., 1923-11-03
Criticism of Correspondents.

AS for the second matter in which
Secretary Hughes more than touched
in his speech at Providence, tine
thirst for sensation and a restless
need for notion" this in a way is a
criticism of correspondents who send
out dispatches based on guesses which
they make on less than the spur of the
moment. There is plenty Of reason
for this complaint of the secretary, for
it is a complaint and nothing else, and
nobody probably deplores it more than
the Washington newspaper mai who
tries to write at least fairly we'll
thought-out matter and what may be
called seasoned stuff.
Take n case in point. Within a few
days a dispatch which was printed
widely went out from Washington to
the effect that the Hughes proposal
for an economic conference to help
straighten out European financial mat
ters was more than likely to be re-
vived and to be put to the test of con-
gressional approval. This dispatch was
based apparently on nothing else than
the fact that Lloyd George had ex-
pressed sorrow that the Hughes plan
had not been acted upon.
Coincident with the sending of this
dispatch others went out from other
sources carrying official denial of any
intention on the part OF the admins
tration to give consideration to the
Hughes scheme for a world economic
parley. Readers of newspapers
throughout the United States had the
chance to read, cheek by jowl, one
article declaring one thing and another
article carrying official denial of its
truth.
Probably the departments in Wash
ington are too timid about publicity.
The result naturally Is guesswork.
Guesswork Is bad business.
