Yet twice every year a
strange thing happened.
Outside, there would come a
turning of the season. The sky
would warm with spring; the
bare limbs and the frozen clods
would break into delicate green
flame. Or. summer having
passed suddenly the gold would
crumble into ash. and with the
night there would be an icy
patter on the pane-and
strange, wild cries among the
trees-and a far roaring, as
though in the darkness great
wings passed.
When either of these occa-
sions happened, the little bird
would do the strange thing
which I have mentioned. For
four days it would sit huddled
and twitching-its eyes closed,
it's wings fluttering-as though
it, too, we're set upon a journey.
Yet never once had those wings
known flight. or those eyes
seen the glory Of the sun or
the wonder of the moon!
Yet something in that little
bird remembered!
In spite of captivity, IN spite
of all the dizziness of its lot
a dullness which must have
drugged the tiny brain as it
padded the body-the spirit of
the bird remembered freedom
and flight! And through the
dizziness it heard those faint,
mysterious calls which set its
blood kin on their long, free
trail.

Agents of Privilege
Oppose Extension

But now, as always, since
the Postal Savings System
was first advocated by a
citizen of Pittsburgh during
the presidency of Abra-
ham Lincoln, the greedy
agents of special privilege
are opposing the extension
of the benefits Of this
trusted agency beyond its
present limitation.
In fact, there is an agi-
tation already starting IN
favor of reducing from
$4,000 to $500 the amount
one citizen can deposit at
his postoffice, and to re-
duce the interest on postal
savings accounts from 2 to
- Of l per cent.
The excuse offered for
this unfair proposal is that
depositors in the Postal Saw
ings System are themselves
"hoarders," and should be
prevented from "hoarding"
more than $500 with Uncle
Sam.
Woodworking and thrifty
Americans whose faith in
the protecting power OF
their vernme nt has
prompted them to put their
savings in an institution
that the Government pro-
tects is of a piece with the
mendacious propaganda that
prevented the establishment
of the Postal Savings Sys-
tenn from 1861 until 1911.
These Government pro-
tected repositories were a
success from the first, but
they succeeded in spite of
the greed and sinister OPP
position of the forces Of
special privilege.

American st a t esmanship
has given to the world its
shortest definition of govern
ment in these three words:
Government is protection. "
But government regula-
ton, supervision and inspec-
ton of banking institutions
must provide effective pro-
lection for the deposits of
the people in these institu-
lions if the faith Of the
people in the Government
as their protector is to be
maintained.
How the Federal Govern
ment can best protect at all
times the peoples bank de-
posits in all the banks under
it's supervision is the problem
with which Congress is now
wrestling.
Meantime the mounting de-
posts in the Federal Postal
Savings System attest the
faith of the people in the pro-
lection which the Federal
Government gives to their
deposits in this most useful
national agency.

System Wakes Up
Sleeping Dollars"

The Postal Savings System,
which now has deposits ap-
proximating a thousand mil
lion dollars, has done more to
wake up and put to work the
" sleeping dollars which
have been taken out of cir
culation and put into mat
tresses, tin boxes, trunks,
barn, stove, and socks" than
all the Federal threats which
have been issued to punish
hoarders by failing them.
Until Federal legislation
is enacted making Govern
ment protection Of bank de-
posts completely effective,
the Postal Savings System
is the best agency available
for attracting money out OF
hiding and getting it back
into circulation.
One reason why so many
people have hidden their
money away instead of uti-
lizing the Postal Savings
System is because Of the
limitation under which it
now operates.
A depositor, under exist
ing law, can not put more
than $4,000 in these postal
savings accounts. He ought
to be permitted to deposit
his savings up to four Or
five times that amount, and
he will be if any one Of
several measures now pend
ing before Congress is
passed before adjournment.

It took the American peo-
pie more than half a century
to set up this system in the
face Of the bitter opposition
of some Of the same greedy
special interests that are at
tempting to discredit and
hamstring it today.
It ought not to take the
American Congress ten days
to extend the service rem
dered by the Postal Savings
System, liberalize its rules
and regulations, and make
it the shock troops Of the
Federal Government in the
war to wipe out fear, re-
store confidence, stop hoard
ing and bring back into
circulation the millions of
dollars that must be still IN
hiding and idle.
In the legislative act Gre
ating the Postal Savings
System, it is provided that
"the faith of the United
States is solemnly pledged
to the payment of the de-
posts made in Postal Say
ings depository offices. "
This pledge explains the
success Of the system and
proves anew the faith OF
the people in the protecting
power of their Government,

Postal Savings
A BulWark to Banks

All deposits received by
the Postal Savings System
are redeposited in local
banks that are safe and
that can satisfy the Gov
eminent Of that fact.
The record shows that in
many cases these Postal
Savings repositories have
been of tremendous help in
Strengthening local banks
by redepositing funds fool
lshly drawn from them by
hysterical depositors.
From the State of New
York, the postmaster at
Brooklyn reports:
"One deposition used
to bring his money and
it Was found to be very
cold. Inquiries elected
that he wos a butcher
and kept his money in
his ice box.
"A peanut Uendor used
to come to the Postal
Savings UindoU every
day. When asked why
he came daily, he ex-
planned that it uuas to
haze the United States
Government protect his
money"
From a postmaster in a
far Western State comes the
story of IAN elderly gentle
man of foreign birth wish
ing to open a Postal Saw
ings account" He brought
in $1,000, comprised princi-
pally of silver dollars and
half dollars, which he had
been keeping under his mat
tress in a bag. "This had
become so bulky that i had
interfered with his comfort
in sleeping"
From the State of Wash
ington, a postmaster tells Of
depositor at his office
who presented $1,000 in SIS
and $40 gold pieces on two
widely separated occasions.
1t was easily discernible, "
continues this report, "that
these gold pieces had been in
dirt" and after tactful con-
versation it was revealed that
their hiding place had been
old flower pots such as
used to adorn the average
front room.
These and numerous SINH
