THE CHRISTMAS CLUB

Tho news dispatches recently
told how the young man who
originated the idea Of forming
Christmas clubs and had 1t copy
righted, has now become rich be-
cause OF It. Well, most people like
to see good ideas bring rewards. to
their originators. Those rewards
bring rewards to others. at least
that is ,noticeably true Of the Christ
mas club idea. 1t has established a
systematic method of saving that
is seasonable and otherwise helpful
in its results.
The Christmas club was started in
this city in 1913. The first year
there were 2S5 payments amounting
to $6,SS3.40. an average investment
of around s24. This year the pay
ments. 2400 in number will amount
to approximately s124,Ooo. or a lit
tie over $50 each.
It Is said by those who have had
opportunity for observation, that
much OF these payemnts is used
for meeting the bills which are sea-
sonable, like those for coal and
taxes. However we look at this
feature Of the results they in
evitably must on the whole be ben
eficial to the community and Guilt
vate ability to save and to sacrifice
the petty wants for future gain.

On Postal Affairs

On. Y. Timo3)
An uncsca pahle conclusion Is that
no postal legislation, and especially
none affecting rates, should be con-
sidered even in committee until we
are on Sounder grounds Of tact ana
of determination of public policy in
POSTAL rate legislation. If the pay
increase bill should be passed over
the Presidents veto carrying an nd-
ditio..al expense of s6G.000.0 900. there
would undoubtedly be pressure to
rush through a measure to meet
this need for revenue. And upon
what facts would such a measure he
framed? Upon a report whose find
inGs were secret until two days ago
a report which has not vet bce,,
approved By ConSI eSs nor subjected
to the critical examination of those
who Gravely doubt the correctness
OF some of its majU" conclusions.
To cite the most important doubtful
point. competent opinion would chaI-
lenSe at once ascribing loss of
STATE eos year to the handling of
second-cElss matter. and a loss OF
only 36,9i6.753 to the handling Of
tho fourth class, or parcel post.
There Will be many VINO will want to
know how this loss said to be due
TO the handling OF second class mat
ter has increased so tremendously
since the inception of the parcel post
service. Has there been a fair dis
tribution OF costs as between the
fourth class. in which virtually
every parcel must be individually
weighed and handled. and. on the
ether hand, newspapers weighed,
sacked. routed and delivered to the
train at an expense to the publishers
OF millions OF dollars? These are
facts which should be known.
On the question of public policy In
the fixing of rates there are I'm
portant matters of concern to the
nation az a whole to be considered.
One theory advanced IL that every
piece or mail should pay it's way"
Apart from the fact that such
theory is contrary to the rate-mak-
ing principles of every public seryice
OF a character and magnitude COM
parable TO the Post Office Depart
ment. there is the Obvious truth that
such policy would p2ralyze the
operations of the mail service and
virtually put complete stop to the
distribution of newspapers by mail.
ne publishers ask no favors Of
congress in the Ihatter of second
class rates. They do ask that sound
rate-maktng principles he ascertain
ed and followed in 1.-The fixing eff
rates on all classes. and that public
opinion declare itself on the va.ue
to the nation of wide circulation
of newspapers ut fair proportion
ate cos. of the postal service. A,
present the publishers are the onIy
users of the mails who rest under
the burden of the tremendously m
creased wartime rates. Every other
class has been restored to pre-waf
level. but no relief has been given

Mr.. Scribner. who rendered faithful
and efficient service in the board OF
aldermen, has not countenanced
abuse or questionable methods. but
has stood throughout for a clean
campaign devoid OF personalities. and
has nothing to regret on that Nscore.
To the credit OF Republican manage

wards with Democratic representa-

but one. Ward 4. and the plurality for
