P. 0. Warns Against
Use Of Stamps
Second Time

Uncle Sam has discovered that
many of his postage stamps are
bling used a second time after
they have gone through the mail
protected from cancellation marks
by a coating of mucilags.
A routine order designed to pre-.
vent loss of revenue caused by
this fraudulent practice has been
sent out by the Post office De-
partment on recommendation of
the Chief Postal Inspector.
This order states: 1T is the
practice of some persons and con-
Germs to cover tn, face of stamps
with mucilage or other adhesive
material. This Is not permissible
as the stamps cannot be properly
defaced by cancellation. Post
masters should therefore advise
patrons who follow this obi ction-
able practice that it must be
discontinued"

GREATER N { n
OUR GREATEST
NEED NOW
BY y. C. FORBES

Americas most important prod.
uct is not steel or automobiles or
textiles or oil. The nations most
important product is its human
beings.
Our billion.dollar and other cor
porations have established elabo-
rate departments to conduct re-
search into everything they turn
out except the kind of men they
turn out.
Thanks to the Rockefeller and
Harkness millions. Yale University
is to establish an institute of
human relations.
This should arouse our finan-
cial and business leaders to
, greater sense of the Importance
of their paying more attention
than they have paid in the past
to the flesh and blood and brains
committed to their, charge.
Not for Sentiment
Callous employers whenever the
subject of their treatment Of
their workfolks is mentioned, an
sswer that they are in business
to make money that they do not
profess to be philanthropists, that
labor" interest them only inso-
far as 1t enters into the produc
ing of the goods made and sold
for profits. Sometimes they add
that. of course. they make dona.
tions. in their individual capacity.
to pet charities and so forth,
but that they run their business
strictly on a business basis. with.
out any sentimental "tomfoolery."
And there are only too many
evidences that many companies
do give scarcely a thought TO
their workers as human beings.
To them they are simply a part
of the equipment necessary to
run the plant. TO such. the con.
dition of the workers Is OF inf.
nitely less concern than the con.
dition of the machinery and other
parts of the plant equipment.
Not only so. but it still is
true that many executives throw
workers on the scrap heap as
readily as they throw obsolete
machinery. Not a thought Is
given to what may befall the
human material dumped. Even
some of our very large corpora.
tions continue to be guilty OF this
inhuman, conduct.
Best Treatment
Will the example set up at Yale
move industry to alter It's attitude?
True, an increasing number of
progressive managements do rec
ognize that they have an ohliga-
tion towards those who spend their
lives in the service. But hereto
fore there has been an utter lack
Of cooperation among the right

HITS
PRATT
PLAN

The efficacy of the 60-year-
old statute providing that the
chief of police may issue a
warrant for the search of a
house where gambling is
suspected on the affidavits of
two reputable citizens, which
Major Henry G. Pratt seeks
to revive, is doubted by
United States Attorney Leo A.
Rover, he announced today.
The law itself, which is included
in the old revised statutes was left
out of the District code now in use
because it was considered a VIOLA
tion of the constitution and the new
law placed the power in the hands
OF judicial officers.
Probable Cause Required
Under the present practice not
only must warrants be issued by
judicial officers, but probable cause
must be shown before the warrants
can be issued. The probable cause"
has been construed by the courts to
include more than the affidavits of
two suspicious persons.
Rover declares there can be no
new purpose served by invoking the
old statue. even though it would
allow the superintendent of police,
instead of Police Court Judge, to
issue the warrants, because in any
case a probable cause for issuance
of the warrants must be shown.
Rover directed a letter to Major
Pratt this morning in which he sets
out his opinion. His letter in part
follows:
This office is advised that those
charged with the duty of compiling
new District code are including
this section of the old revised
statutes. However, you will note
from reading the statutes that
the Major and Superintendent of
Police is authorized to do certain
things Hereunder when there is
showing that there are good
grounds, stating the same and it
is our view that our courts would
interpret this portion of the statute
as meaning no more nor less than
probable cause, as contemplated
under any one to be issued by
court.
ut is. therefore, our position
that no useful purpose would be
served by transferring a duty.
which we conceive to be properly
called judicial. to a non.iudicial
officer, beause even in the fac of
the statute nothing appears which
would support the theory that the
major and superintendent of police
could issue warrant on any less
evidence than would be required
by a judicial officer

TEST BRAKES

jThe apparent hands-off attitude of

Brake tests at regular intervals of

kpector Ernest V. Brown, in charge
4of the Traffic Bureau, taking the
matter under consideration
When the question was put up
to r. G.. Klotz, engineer for the

nounced that the bus companies had
pretty expensive brake testing de.
vices, and that There was nothing
the matter with the carriers being
used by the traction companies.
Inspector Brown, after waiting
several days, following an accident,
finally decided that the traffic bureau
will make tests of bus brakes on its

result to the Public Utilities Com.
