we have nothing to be ashamed
of in our stamps. If now we
shift to photogravure, we never
shall be able to attain the
heights Of artistic excellence in
our past. This is because Of
the artistic limitations lnher-
ent in photogravure. 1t is in
teresting to note that nations
using photogravure print their
higher values and special COM
memoratives from hand-en.
graved dies and plates.
The question fundamental
ly at issue is this: Can a ma
ton such as the United States
with greatswealth. a native
culture of which it is proud.
and a desire to present to the
world only its best-can such
a nation afford to haggle over
the pennies for it's ambassa-
doris abroad? If we are not
proud of our stamps, let us i'm
prove them. But don't make
them look cheaper. The cues
ton is not one of cost. The
question is only in part a mat
ter Of security. The question
is one of artistic judgment.
Are we that much lacking in
good taste?"
The story about alleged
thefts from the Bureau Of
Engraving and Printing on
Page AIS in The Star last
Sunday was inaccurate in that
it dealt with incidents at the
Office and vault of the Treas
urer of the United States and
not the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing at all. Nobody
stole $4,000 from the Bureau
in 1945. Neither did any
bureau officer blame low pay
and close association with big
money for these defalcations."

tected by the expert. With
greater security from hand
engraving, are the savings
from photogravure worth their
cost?
THE third question is one
Of artistry. A stamp is not
merely a tax receipt. It is, in
no small measure. a token Of
