posit business. After the discussion in
the cabinet, when you and Root (Sec-
retary of State Eiihu Root, and in
deed all the members except George
Meyer POSTMASTER GeneraD seemed to
feel so strongly in opposition to Gov
ernment guaranty, I thought that you
had very clear convictions on the mat
ter. You expresst them not only
forcefully, but, as thought, in admira-
BILE form on that occasion. OF course,
it is very difficult for one man to ao-
wise another just how to go at thing.
My own voice is always for aggressive
warfare, and in your position I should
go hard at Bryan and the Bryanites on
this, as on other matters.
Postal Savings Banks.
THE reason I felt as strongly as
expresst myself on that occasion at
the cabinet meeting was because I was
convinced that this guaranty CT bank
deposits would be an issue and that 1t
would have to be met fairly and square
ly, for it has attracted a great desl of
attention. I wish you could get hold of
George Meyer, who would be able, I
think, to furnish you the exact facts
which would permit you to slash saw
agely at the Bryanite platform and Its
half-he1rted Endorsement OF poStal saw
ings banks and show that the postal
savings bank is the real way to protect
the small depcSitor.
LAS a very rough bit of advice, I
would suggest that you should point out
that your chief care is for the small
depositor; that the small depositor is
the one who should be protected in
every possible way and that the only
way to give this absolute guaranty to
him is thru the postal savings bank,
and that it is completely given by the
establishment of the postal savings
bank.
Point out that the Bryanite plat
form in this respect shows no real pur-
pose to benefit the small man, but all
effort to gain party capital at the cost
of the small man by attacking the
measure for the postal savings bank
under the false pretense that it is de-
signed to help Wall Street, whereas
those who drew up the platform, if they
possessed any intelligence, must know
that the entire opposition to the postal
savings bank came from the very peo-
pie who they falsely asserted we're in
terested in having it passed. 50 that
the Bryanite position in this. as in sc
many other matters, is that while nomi-
nally to advocate policy, really to op-

NEW TWO BITS
OUT IN JULY

Between 100000 and 100000
of the new 25-cent pieces designed
by the noted sculptor, John Flan-
agan, probably will be put in cir
culation in July, Director R. J.
Grant, of the Mint, announced to-
day.
Mr.. Flanagan also designed the
main clock at the Library of Con-
gress and a war memorial tablet
for the Agriculture Department.
The new quarter pieces are now
being coined in the Philadelphia
mint. They are partially a Bicen-
tennial measure since they were
made in response to popular de-
mand to have the face of Wash
ington on the 25-cent piece. An
American eagle is on the opposite
side.
The design may not change for
Is years. Mr.. Grant said. He said
complaints had been received
about the design of the old 25-
cent pieces and also to the effect
that the dates on them wore off
easily.
