Telepathic Greetings

That Canadian radio official who sent all his Christmas greetings by mental telepathy has our hearty admiration, mixed with just hint of envy Think of all the stamp-licking, envelope sealing, crowd-bucking and financial outlay such procedure would eliminate That pre- Christmas writer's cramp in wrist and neck would be wholly unnecessary.
 There'd be little difficulty, Of course, about the delivery of those greetings. Some friends might not be good receivers and so wouldn't know they'd had your seasonal good wishes It might be, too, that the wrong person would pick up some of the messages and be a little sur priSed.
 If everybody took up the custom, however, 1t would go hard with postoffice receipts and the pay of all those extra men who are hired for the holiday rush. Then, too, the idea might spread until people began doing all their correspond ence by telepathy instead of by mali. The postal deficit then would be something to worry about. Unhappy congressman wouldn't be able to demand postoffices for their constituents. The more we think about it, the more we can see that the Canadian genius must not be too gener- ally followed

Home To Boost

The old saying about chickens coming home to roost is certainly exemplified in the present spectacle of Republicans, offl- cials and otherwise scurrying hither and thither to find some means of daubing the democratic party in this city very deep black We remarked yesterday that the wise citizen in the quiet and peace of his own home would undoubtedly sift all the allegations, study all the cited in- stances of charter violations, and find out the why and the wherefore.
 AS was explained in last nights news columns by the Democrat large amount of money has been spent by this city in the last six months or so in fighting liti- gation brought against it by political parties. We we'll recall remarking at one time that the frequent recourse to the courts that was had both before the election and immediately after it when voting machines and other records were impounded would cost the city a pretty penny. We'll, it has resulted in legal expenses over and above those ot the city's own legal staff And now these bills are subjected to scrutiny.
 Of course it was absolutely imperative that the city be plunged into all this litiga- tion. It was necessary that it be put to expense over the question of the merit system. It was vital that votes be picked up by thorough study of the voting machines to change the announced re- suits of election night, By the way the city's stand in both those instances was pretty much substantiated, wasn't it?Yes, but it cost the city money to have it's cases prepared and to have them presented be- fore the courts. Now we are paying for it. And it seems such payments are subject to public study. The logic is not quite apparent.
