Anti-Lynching

Evidently inspired by the lat
est outbreak OF lynchimania on
the Eastern Shore. the following
poetic appeal was sent to the
Maryland Merry-Go-Round by a
man signing himself. Monk
Blake. fugitive from a Maryland
mob:
oh, please. you senators on
Capitol Hill.
Pass that Anti-Lynching bill.
1t will guarantee our right to
live like men.
Without fear OF dangling from
a ropes end.
Is this America or Nazi Ger
many?
Why can't we all live in har-
mony?
Get together. pass it. stop the
fight
Abolish the theory that might
makes right.
Go on. pass it, it stands to
reason.
We have laws against hunting
game out of season."

POSTMASTER GENERAL FARLEY
MAKES STATEMENT

AS | prepare to leave my position
as postmaster general of the United
States on August 81, 1910, I can
not praise too highly the more than
100000 postal employees through
out the country for the splendid CO.
operation and assistance that they
have rendered to me and to my staff
at the post office department during
the last seven years.
l doubt if the postal service has
ever been operating on a more eff
ficient basis than it is at the pres
ent time, the credit for which be-
longs to those loyal public servants
who perform their duties through
out the day and night in every
branch of the service in order that
the mails may go through with
speed and regularity.
When / assumed charge of the
post office department on March 4
1888, the postal service was being
operated at huge annual net deficits,
that for the last fiscal year before /
became postmaster general (1932)
amounting to the staggering sum
of $153, 900, 900. Through the adop-
ton of sound business principles
and by the practice of economy
wherever possible without impair
ment to the postal service generally
we have succeeded in bringing the
postal revenues and expenditures
into balance. with respect to those
services that are rendered TO the
public for hire
During six of the seven years that
have been al the head of the pos
tai establishment, we have record
ed net operating postal surpluses of
Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1940-08-29
Page Three

seven million dollars per year, that
for the fiscal year just ended
amounting to eight million dollars
during a 12-month period when
postal revenues reached a new all
time high of $766, 100000. Con-
versely, we have reduced postal ex-
penditures by millions of dollars
while at the same time providing
many new and varied services TO
the public. In this connection this
was accomplished without any re-
duction in personnel; rather, on the
contrary, it has been necessary to
add thousands of new employees to
the departments rolls in order to
keep pace with the increased vol
ume of business that has been
brought to the postal service
through promotional and publicity
campaigns to acquaint postal pa
irons with the many services which
are accorded for their benefit and
about which, previously, many
thousands knew little or nothing.
During my seven full fiscal years
as postmaster general there has
been expended by the post office de-
partment total of $5,219, 1885,
SO, s3,852,782,165.2 Of which has
been paid out for postal salaries;
$1,107,972,490.27 for the trans
portation of mail, and $258,917,-
401.78 for the purchase of supplies
and the rendition of other services.
The net aggregate postal surplus
for this period amounted to $39,
638,75252
In leaving the post office depart
ment l am taking with me memories
of some of the finest associations
and friendships that it has ever
been my privilege to enjoy. 1 shall
ever be grateful for the cooperation
and assistance which / have receiv-
ed from every one in the postal SER
vice.
