Believes Schools, Sanitation and
Similar Projects Should Get
Preference.

The needs Of the District Of Col,ln-
bla in connection with its school sys-
tenn, sanitation and similar municipal
facilities should be given precedence at
this time over developments of q mu-
nicipal airport, in the opinion OF
Chairman King of the Senate Dis
trict Committee.
Senator King is not opposed to the
airport projectsand indicated that he
is inclined to favor the Gravelly Point
location, but he said he feels the other
municipal needs to which he referred
are more urgent at the present. He
said he felt sure the airport develop
ment would come in time.

gineer Office Of the War Department

quest for a public works allotment to

ing laws and the informal meet
ings of the council have been
among other issues.

OMAHA, Nebr., September 21.-
Postmaster General James A. Farley
Wednesday night praised Nebraska's
Republican Senator. George w. Norris.
in the midst of another verbal assault
on his cross-country offensive against

"I only wish he were Democrat
in name as well as in principle" Far
ley told Democratic rally that
opened the Nebraska campaign. De-
scribing the veteran Norris as ''the
banner statesman of the Middle
West" he continued:
1T is not easy to take sides against
your party, but when that party
abandons everything for which you
stand, when it becomes the vehicle of
privilege and ranges itself in opposi-
ton to the welfare of the masses,
what else can an honest statesman
do? My hat is off to Senator Norris,
who had the courage of his convic-
tions."
During most of his address Farley
discussed "the Republican high COM
mand, which is insisting that black
ruin lies ahead: that level-headed
Franklin D. Roosevelt has gone

ST. PAUL, Mimi, September 21.-
Postmaster General Farley favors con-
tinuation of the Scent postage rate
for first-class mail to keep the Post
Office Department out of the red.
He said that here today, in an ad-
dress at the dedication of the new
Federal building, in which he discussed
the problems of the department.
..It Is not an easy matter for the
Post Office Department to live within
its income, but there is no question
in my mind that we should try to do
!t,nehe said. Until the people of the
United States have recovered from
the trials of the past few years, every
effort will be directed to that end.
Not Believed Burden.
st am Of the opinion that the pres
ent 3-cent rate of postage should be
retained If it is not, our postal reve-
nues will be decreased approximately
s75,b00,00 I feel the average tax
payer, the business man, the farmer,
the laborer and the professional man
is willing to pay the additional penny
on each letter he writes, rather than
impose a heavy burden on the tax
payers.
IA postal deficit always brings de-
mands for curtailed service, demands
for lower salaries for postal employees
and demands for further increases for
postal rates. A balanced postal budget
permits improved and increased serv-
ice. 1t permits better working condi-
tions and better salaries for our postal
employees"
New legislation viii be needed to
carry the 3-cent rate beyond the cur
rent fiscal year.
improvements Made.
Farley said that a survey he had
made of the postal machinery had per-
mitted improvements both in the in
terest of employees and the public, and
that the customary postal deficit had
been eliminated this postal year.
Without interfering with a bal
anced budget" he said, 1885 regular
employees were added to the rolls; de-
livery service was increased and post
Office window service extended. Service
complaints have practically disap-
peared, and when they are received
they are promptly adjusted. In addi-
ton, I found that it was possible to
eliminate some of the measures Of re-
trenchment that my predecessors had
found necessary.
