POSTAL SUBS
DEMAND JOBS

Seeking to have the Post Office
Department fill all vacancies
which have occurred in the serv-
ice since the beginning of 1880,
a delegation representing the Ma
tional Association of Substitute
Post Office Employees, called on
First Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral w. w. HoweS today.
They pointed out that recently
the department announced it
would fill 1885 vacancies in the
regular force from the substitute
list. However, the compliments
added, Postmaster General Far
ley, in his annual report for the
year 1898, tabulated that 1898
vacancies had occurred in the
service between December 81,
1929, and November 80, 1888,
which had not been filled.

Transfer From Homes

No matter what sentimental argu-
ments may be advanced regarding it,
the governments proposal to assist
families from sub-marginal lands to
locations on better farms Is one Of
the most significant things In the
modern American scene. It means,
First of all, that the cruelties Of bit
~ farm competition may at last be
partially eliminated and that official
recognition has been given the right
Of every family to decent living and
OF every child to an education.
For the simple fact Of the matter
is that farming sub-marginal land
breaks the hearts as we'll as the fl
nances Of men and women. It is q
constant threat to the public taxpay-
er, because people who farm such
land are those who most often need
help.
The experiment may not work out
very well, the main difficulty being
that the new land may not be any
better than the old, but 1t Is well
worth the trying. II 1t proves sue
cessful we may yet have an intelli-
gent shifting Of the population so
that areas which can best acommo-
date people will have them.

HOnOring jefferson

Washington Is full Of statues and
monuments, some animate, some In
animate.
Now Representative John J. Boylan
Is pretty excited about something
that every Washingtonian has known
for years-that amongst all this well
ter OF memorials, there isn't q single
one to Thomas Jefferson.
Boylan wants the federal govern
ment to spend 100000 for a pedestal
on which some private association may
later want to build a memorial to
the sage Of Monticello.
Now you might think 100000 is
small change these days, the way the
government Is tossing billions about.
And yet you might also paraphrase
Poor Richard, and say that II you
watch the hundred thousands of dol
lars the billions will take care Of
themselves. There are lots Of things
we need more today than 500, 900 ped
estals.
The best memorial we could build
for jefferson today would be for q
few millions Of US to devote just one
tenth the thought, work, and zeal to
democracy that jefferson gave to it.

A Merited Tribute

A philosopher has said, HE whom
one age stones, another enthrones."
While it may be exaggeratton to
apply that maxim to the case in
mind. 1t warns the hearts Of that
generation which stole with trepida-
ton into the attic to revel In the
dime novel exploits Of Deadwood Dick
to learn that recognition has come
at last to the favorite author Of their
youth.
A bronze plated cobblestone monu-
ment will be reared at Deadwood,
8. D., to the memory Of Deadwood
Dick Clark, Indian scout. frontiers
man, and hero Of dime novels.
The Deadwood Dick thrillers were
not literature, it Is true. There may
have been Justice In the parental
threat to apply the rod to the luck
less youngsters caught reading them.
But memory Of them comes back
for moment like . fresh, clean
breeze, as one turns in disgust from
the mass Of drivel and worse that
masquerades today as literature
among our more advanced" readers
And Deadwood Dick fans Of an.
other day silently cheer those who
have remembered across the years Il
pay tribute to the hero who thrilled
them as he triumphed over his foes.

Bright Spots

As summer comes on, bringing
drouth and labor disturbances, so
many eyes center on these spectacu-
lar developments that little things
slip by unnoticed.
Yet here are three significant
things noted more or less at random,
that augur well for permanent prog
ress. Business failures in May, ac-
cording to the Dun and Bradstreet
reports, fell to the lowest number
since January, 1920. There were only
GIT, as compared with 1852 in the
preceding month and 1909 in May Of
a year ago.
The total liabilities involved in the
failures was correspondingly less.
This seems to show increasing steadi-
ness in the business world.
Not single bank clearly within
the deposit insurance circle has failed
since deposit insurance went into
effect. Thus far, at least, deposit in
surance has not apparently brought
the tide OF careless banking which
some predicted. This seems to indi-
cate q return to sanity IN banking.
And one OF the big airlines, oper-
ating between Chicago and New York,
now has put In effect q commuters
schedule" with Is planes Z day each
way between the great cities. That
seems to indicate that the airman
rumpus hasn't permanently crippled
air transport.
