Watkins Points Out
Farm Mortgage Bonds
Are Very Satisfactory

Charles S. Jackson, president of
the Federal Land Bank of Baltimore,
which serves Pennsylvania, Della
ware, Maryland, Virginia, West Vir-
ginia and Puerto Rico, has just sent
out statement to the few farmers
creditors who are skeptical about ac-
cepting bonds Of the Federal Farm
Mortgage Corporation in payment
for debts owed them by farmers,
according to Talmage L. Watkins, of
Cedar Grove, secretary-treasurer of
the Western Maryland Farm Loan
Association.
The statement read, in part: "Since
the Federal Land Bank of Baltimore
began closing its loans as we'll as
the loans it makes for the land bank
commissioner with bonds instead of
with cash, the land bank has re-
ceived numerous letters and verbal
expressions of communication for it's
bond closing practices. Hundreds of
farmers and farmers creditors have
declared tina THE bonds used in these
closings have many advantages that
were not obtainable before the new
practice went into effect.
"The bonds used in these loan
closings are known as Federal Farm
Mortgage Corporation bonds; the first
issues paid yearly interest rate of
3A per cent, and the new issues now
being used pay an annual interest
rate of 3 per cent. They are uncon-
ditionally guaranteed both as to their
principal and their interest by the
Federal Government; in addition,
they are secured by three other sound
forms of insurance. No investment
could be more soundly secured.

Guard Yourself Against
Drinking Impure Water

At this time of the year when
week end and other motor. trips are
popular, everyone should be on his
guard against drinking water of
unknown safety, the Health De-
partment warns. Drinking from an
open stream is an exceedingly
dangerous practice even if the
water appears clear. The roadside
pump with the leaking platform is
also quite dangerous.
Now a days almost any municip-
al water supply can be relied upon
and it is, therefore, a much better
practice for the thirsty motorist to
drive on to the next town rather
than take chance by drinking I'M
safe surface or well water.

Letters to the Editor
SEEKS ENLIGHTENMENT
ON POSTOFFICE JOBS
Etchison, Md.
June 18th. 1884

Etchison, Nd
June 18th, 1884
To the Editor
/ The Sentinel, Rockville, Nd:
Dear Sir:
/ | am enclosing a clipping from the
Washington Herald of June 9th, and
from the subject matter of same,
feel that it deserves reprinting which
hope you will do, for believe that
it will perhaps answer some of the
questions which are being asked in
certain sections of Montgomery coun-
ty.
After reading Mr.. Merriam's report
as outlined, in the enclosed clipping,
and then hearing that wonderful adj
dress by certain high official of the
Post Office department on June 18th,
at the dedication exercises Of the New
Post Office Building at Washington, in
which it was stated that everything
was being done to improve the depart
ment, and especially so in the selec-
ton of the personal of the depart
ment and after reading Mr.. Mer-
RAMS report, one wonders if Mr..
Merriam is all wet in his report, for if
he is not, then the whole department
must be a joke.
However, even though what Mr..
Merriam has to say, is true in some
places in the country, we would hard
ly believe that such could be the case
in good old Montgomery County
where everything is on the sup and
up" in such matters, and no one of
course would expect such things to
happen.
Trusting you will see fit to give the
matter a little space in your paper,
I remain,
Very truly yours,
j. Ernest Hawkins,
EDITORS Note:-The clipping which
the correspondent refers to follows: y
"Alleged competitive examina-
tions" for first, second and third class
postmasters constitute nationwide
joke which subjects the Civil Service
Commission to ridicule, Lewis Mer-
RAM, of the Bookings Institute, as
serted in a report yesterday.
Merriam declared although the
ordering of these examinations gives
the impression the men OF women
with the highest rating will get the
jobs, as matter of fact the appoint
ments are made on purely "spoils
basis" to deserving Democrats.
"He pointed out under the standard
Civil Service rules the highest three
persons who take an examination are
certified for appointment but in the
instance of the postmasters this prac-
tice is ignored. The Postmaster Gen
eral, Merriam stated, refuses to APP
point the certified eligibles unless the
name of the deserving Democrat he
wants to reward appears on the list.
"The Postmaster General, through
this system, according to Merriam,
can reject all eligibles given rating
above the deserving Democrat, select
ed in advance of the examination, and
appoint the latter even if he is at the
bottom of the list.
"In his report, which S. Lawson
Meyer and Ismar Baruch, commission
attaches assisted in preparing, Mer-
RAM said:
"In my opinion, nothing has done
more to injure the standing of the
Civil Service Commission with the
country than the part the commission
has to play in giving examinations
for presidential postmasters."

FILIPINO INDEPENDENCE ACT
 EXPIRES.

The Congressional act hailed with so much acclaim year ago to grant independence to the Philippine Islands expired this month because of the failure of the Islanders to ratify it. Its terms were objectionable to large majority of the Fi- pnos and it had little support from them or American interests with investments in properties in the islands. That, of course, does not end the matter Sooner or later it must be dealt with decsively We have pledged word as Nation to grant them complete independence and it is not probable they will ever be satisfied with less than sort of qualified independence and the Fipinos turned it down.
 Public sentiment in the country is largely in favor of carrying out the promise in the Jones Act of 1916, the preamble of which declares "it has always been the purpose of the people of the United States withdraw their sovereignty the Philippine Islands and to recognize their ndepend lished therein" Many Filipino leaders declare this condition now be met Others of them disagree and the factions have not been able to agree on a definite plan
 The pressing nature of the problems facing the Roosevelt Administration at this time, and the fact that Congress has much vital legislation to handle within the next few months, makes it reasonable for postponement of present consideration of the whole problem It should be delayed longer than absolutely necessary. As soon possible the terms should be settled which the complete withdrawal of American sovereignty the islands that was promised will be accomplished.
