MAILING MISTAKES

MAILING MISTAKES .... els.
Uncle Sam put $230,000 in his
pocket in 1886 because the public
was careless in addressing mail. Ex-
actly 12,25O,OO0 pieces of mail went
to the Dead Letter Office" because
of insufficient addresses, and 108,-
454 of that number contained money
and since there was no return adj
dress on the envelopes, and it could
not be returned, the government got
it. All of which should impress To-
cal citizens with the Importance OF
having return card in the upper
left-hand corner of every envelope
they mail. This day in time when
printed return cards on envelopes
is so Inexpensive, and the only
guarantee Of letters return If it
is improperly addressed, there is no
excuse for mail going to the Dead
Letter Office" Whether. it is bus
mess or social letter, make sure
your name and address Is in the up
per left-hand corner of the enve-
lope in which it is mailed. Then
if it isn't delivered you will get
it back, and have the satisfaction Of
knowing why it came back.

"BUY AMERICAN

Probably not one Kennewick cit
izen in a hundred ever looks to see
where the article he is purchasing
was produced, though if more would
do so, and more would refuse to
buy products ahipped into this
country from abroad, conditions
over here would quickly improve.
In China and Japan a wage equal
to 15c a day in our money is con-
sidered fair; Germany is not much
better and Russia and Belgium are
not far behind. How can an AM
erican workman compete with
wages like that; or how can living
conditions over here be kept at
their present standard if he has to?
If more Americans would look to
see where the merchandise they are
about to buy was produced, and
then refuse to buy it if it came
from country where starvation
wages, long hours, sweat shops and
unsanitary conditions are the rule
it would 60 far toward solving this
country's employment problems, and
do much to prevent future depres-
sions. Buy American" should be
every loyal Americans slogan from
now on.

GOOD NEWS

As a general thing the kind OF
news sent out by the weather our
eau isn't good news. But now ana
then there is an exception, ana
forecast regarding repetition OF
last wears drouth is an example. IL
is the. kind of weather news every
body around Kennewick will enjoy
reading.
According to this new prediction
the country will witness more
moderate summer than the last
one. The experts say temperatures
will be more normal; there will be
sno long, record-breaking hot spells
such as we went through in 1886.
While there has been more than
the usual amount of moisture ala
ready this year, the weather men
think there still will be sufficient
amount to meet all needs and veg
citation will not suffer as it did dur
ing last June, July and August. In
other words, Uncle Sans weather
bureau does not believe that the
country is in for another drouth
year. -tE
Along with this cheerful fore
cast comes one just as rosy from
the Department of Agriculture to
the effect that while many sections
are below normal crop conditions
owing to excessive spring moisture,
the general outlook is good and war
rants the prediction that bumper
crops of all kinds will more than
make up for the shortages caused
by a lack of it last year. Putting the
two reports together it makes the
kind of news every reader likes to
get hold of, and the kind Of news
every newspaper likes to print.

TRAFFIC LAWS

-
Yesterday Kennewick's new traf-
fic ordinance went into effect and
to date there have been no casual
ties, in spite of the dire predictions
of week ago. &c.. -
AS matter of fact, the passage
of the new ordinance was not to
harass people nor to cause them in
convenience. On the contrary, it
was passed for just the opposite
purpose-to make it easier and
safer for a larger number of people
to transact business in the COM
munity.
The new policeman who has been
given a full time job was not hired
entirely to spot violators of the or
dinance. That's merely a part of
his duties, as he is to be building
inspector and assume several other
necessary duties.
However, now that the law is act
ually in effect, it would be we'll for
citizens to find out the provisions OF
the ordinance and begin to heed
them, for it will not be long until
warnings will not be sufficient.
Probably the worst hardship, out
side of the kids riding bikes on the
mainstem, will be the city folks
parking longer than the two hour
limit. Printers, clerks and tired bus
mess men will have to park their
cars clear around a corner from
now on. ;....

THE PREACHER

Someone is always writing about
doctors and lawyers and teachers
but seldom can you find space de-
voted to that humble servant known
as the preacher. Maybe if it hadn't
been for the recent thoughtfulness
of Misourri editor you never would
have had a pen-picture of the
preacher. But he has thought to
write one, and in the belief that
citizens of Kennewick will enjoy
reading it, we take the liberty OF
reproducing it-and here it is:
"The preacher has a great time.
If his hair is gray, he is too old. If
he is a young man, he has not had
experiences enough. If he has ten
children, he has too many. If he
has none, he it setting bad ex-
ample. If his wife sings in the
choir, she is presuming, and if she
does not, she isn't interested in her
husbands work. If the preacher
reads from notes he's bore, and II
he speaks extemporaneously, he
ISN'T deep enough. If he stays at
home in his study, he doesn't mix
enough with people; if he is seen
around the streets, he ought to be
ct home getting up a good sermon.
II he calls on the poor, he is an
aristrocrat.
Whatever he does, someone
could have told him how to do it
better. Yes, the preacher has q
great time!"

HOW IT WORKED

The federal government justifiably
took the situation in hand.
Accordingly, Uncle Sam undertook
to spend 81 in United States money to
supplement each states 81 in the con-
struction of first class roads within
said states boundaries.
That started the states road build
ing programs a-go.ng
Each state wanted to get all it could
Of that federal money. 1t "hocked" it.
self to the lirait to match Uncle Sans
money.
1t was all right up to a certain point,
but there were states which overdid
themselves.
They bonded themselves for more
than they could afford in order to
avail themselves of federal benefits
that they did not need They have
better roads than they require, involv-
ing higher taxation rates than they
well can pay-just because, by greed,
they grabbed at near-bankruptcy
AN ECONOMICAL PROBLEM
Incidentally they raised Cain with
the national transportation industry.
The railways are "in the soup" large
ly because of the growth of bus and
truck competition with rail passenger
and freight carrying.
Probably it served the rail lines
right to have their selfish monopoly
cracked in the back by this new rival
ry. Still, it HAS created a new econo-
mic problem. It is a national problem,
too. Yet. the states do not want to
consider it SO. States rights" is their
motto.
AN OLD QUOTATION
The states Fighters, in short, want
all the privileges of local government
with all the advantages (if any) OF
naturalization.
AS Senator King remarks, they can
not have and eat their cake simultan-
eously.
That is a chestnutty quotation, but
! it is applicable.
